Holy. Crap. His eyes. Oh my god, his eyes. They were the same color as Alice's, but somehow, deeper. When he looked at me, all that annoyance went away. His face was expressionless, just looking back at me. Then, he just shook his head and gave me a small smile.
"Hi, I'm Edward," he said.
"Hi," I replied, half there, half in my own world. Edward. I haven't heard that name except for in my 1700s novels. But my god, his voice. It was like Alice's voice on steroids. Except of course, deeper. Almost like velvet. And his smile? He had this crooked grin that no one could pull off except for him.
I quickly realized I've been looking into his eyes the whole time I've been thinking, so I sat in my seat across from him, turning a bit red. After a few seconds of silence, I looked up and noticed Edward was still looking at me with a curious look on his face while Alice looked at the both of us with a smug smile. Giving her a confused look, I glanced at Edward again and he had started eating his burger. Finding it a good idea to start eating, I took my for and shoved some of the pasta in my mouth.
You have no idea how much I wish that coin landed on the other side. The pasta tasted like it had ANCHOVIES in it! Who the hell puts anchovies in pasta? My face scrunched up in disgust and I grabbed my napkin and spit the pasta (if you can call it that) into it. Then, I took Alice's water bottle and started to chug it, then swallowing too much too fast.
Wrong move.
The next thing I know I'm coughing like crazy. Alice keeps on pounding on my back trying to get me to stop. Eventually I do and I look at Emmett and Edward who both had an amused look on their faces.
"What was that Bella?" Emmett asked, trying to hold back his laughter.
"Pasta cough is cough horrible!" I get out.
"Oh, come on! It can't be that bad," he said before taking his own fork and eating about a quarter of it.
The look on his face? Priceless. It kinda looked like he had tears in his eyes, and his mouth twisted in a weird way I didn't even know was possible before spitting all the food out. Right on Alice.
"EMMETT!" she screamed, which earned us a few weird looks from the tables around us. But Emmett couldn't care less. He was too busy drinking as much coke as possible. When it was completely drained, he got up from the table and went into the kitchen, probably trying to get another drink. Alice excused herself from the table to go change her clothes. Which left me with Edward. He looked at me with his crooked grin and asked, "How could that possibly be so bad?" before picking up his fork and trying to reach over to get some of the pasta.
"Don't!" I all but yelled before grabbing his wrist, trying to stop him. When I touched his wrist though, this spark was sent up my whole arm, before quickly letting go, looking at him in shock. He also had a surprised look on his face. Then he just shrugged before returning to his burger.
Trying to break the awkward silence, I asked, "So, is this where you sit everyday?"
"Sometimes we sit outside when it's warm or too crowded in here. If you mean who we sit with, it's usually us three, well now you. But, some people join us on some days. Like Angela Weber, Ben Cheney, Mike Newton, Tyler Crowley, Eric Yorkie, Emmett's current girlfriend, or just whoever wants to sit with us," he replied.
Okay, wow. A lot of people.
"And none of them are here?" I asked.
"Don't think so. Haven't seen any of them," He replied, taking another bite. Then, we just sat in the awkward silence, while he ate. After a few minutes, he noticed that he was the only one eating, so he held out his hand, which held an apple. I just shook my head, even though I wanted it. I was going to go get something else, but the line was huge, so I decided against it.
When I shook my head, he gave me a doubtful look then stuck out his hand farther towards me. And I shook my head again. Then, he stuck his hand out even farther, and I shook my head harder. This went on for a while before he finally said something.
"Please, Bella. Take the apple. If you're going to spend the rest of the night with my sister, you're going to need as much energy as you can get," he said with a pleading voice. Letting out an exaggerated sigh, I took the apple from his hand. Then, he smiled triumphantly.
"You don't play fair Edward Cullen," I said while taking a bite of the apple.
"No, you just give in too easily," He replied with a smirk.
A/N: TA-DA! Okay, about the updates, I'm not sure when I'm going to update and when I'm not. I don't really have a schedule. If I promised something like updating every 3 days or something, I know I won't be able to keep it. My life is very random, so there isn't a distinct time when I'd be able to be on the computer and type up stuff. So, I'll update usually at random times, and when I feel like it. Because if I write when I don't feel like writing, then the story is bad. So, just check this story once in a while, and see if it's updated!
