A/N: Sorry if I haven't updated in a while! I was kind of busy... Here you go :D !
EPOV
I couldn't believe I made such a fool of myself! Idiot! Bella was probably thinking right now that I was some playboy who dates a different girl every week… well that was true, but I didn't want her to think that! She probably didn't want to date me now. Why didn't I just wait that Alice had finished with the phone?! Stupid Edward, stupid… What was I going to do right now?
"Edward, honey? "Said Esme, my mother.
"Yes?"I answered.
"Diner is ready! "
"Coming…"I said, while going downstairs.
I sat at the table, lost in my thoughts. For the first time in my life, I didn't know how to ask a girl out. How could that even happen to me, THE Edward Cullen? Habitually, the girls were throwing themselves at me. The only thing I had to do was to pick one. But now? It was totally different. She was different…
" So Edward, how was school today?" asked Carlisle. He looked at me, smirking… Oh oh… it was never a good sign when my father had this smile…
"Pretty good. Why are you asking?" I replied, distrustful.
"Well, Edward, can't a father ask his son if he had a good day without having any suspect intention? "
"Not in your case, 'cause you never ask me this question without "having any suspect intention"."
" Alright, I guess you know me too well... "
"Huhuh…"
"I was just talking to Emmett about your girlfriend Tanya, and he told me that you already planned to go out with another girl named Bella. She's the new girl in town, isn't she? "
"What?! " I said unbelievingly. I couldn't believe that Emmet would talk about that to my FATHER. The same father that once invited my girlfriend to supper when I had ALREADY invited my second one. Since this little problematic event, I promised to myself to never again let my dad know about my relationships with girls. I turned to look Emmett directly in the eyes while mouthing to him "You're dead".
" Sorry man! " said Emmett, with a look that looked like everything but absolutely not sorry. Was he making fun of me?! He was definitely going to pay for that one…
"Look dad… Just forget everything Emmett had said. It's not even true! He's just jealous because I had dated more girls in 17 years of existence than he did in 18."
"WELL AT LEAST I'M NOT A VIRGIN ANYMORE! "he replied, offended.
"HOW DARE YOU-"
" Oh just shut up!" said Alice, annoyed.
" Yes Edward! SHUT UP! "approved Emmett.
" BOTH OF YOU!" she said.
"Hey! What's with all the yelling here?!" said Esme with an authoritarian tone.
"Nothing. I'm not hungry anymore. Thanks for the diner. I have to do my homework now." I said, knowing that I didn't even have homework. I always used the homework excuse. I went to my room.
My family could get so annoying at times! Now my father would probably go gossiping about my private life with his friends at the hospital, who will gossip about this with their patients, who will go talk about this to their kids and to their family, and in the end, Bella would probably hear about this. And all of this will happen in a period of 2 days. Ugh. I hated my life! Not… I didn't hate my life, but I hated living in a little city! If at least my father could keep his big mouth shut…
Suddenly, I heard a little knock on the door. " Look Ed, I'm sincerely sorry about telling dad that. It's just that I was thinking that… well…hum… I wasn't even thinking. But I didn't know that you will make such a big deal of that!" Emmett said.
" It's okay… I'm sorry if I overreacted…" I replied. I didn't really want Emmett to know that I was afraid to ask Bella out. He would harass me with this for the rest of my life…
"But I still don't understand! Why don't you just break up with Tanya and start to go out with Bella? "
" I… I don't know. The problem is not breaking up with Tanya, it's asking Bella out…" I said. Shit. Did I really blurt that out? I guess that the only thing I had to do now is waiting for Emmett to burst into laughter and to call me a chicken…
"Really?! You mean… you're afraid that she won't like you? "
"Kinda…"
"Wow… Who would've known that someday Edward Cullen was going to have problem with asking a girl out…"
" Listen Emmett, if you're going to make fun of me, just go ahead, but do it quickly…"
"I won't."
"You won't?!"
"No."
" I might sound stupid but… why?!" It was the first time Emmett didn't jump on the occasion of making fun of me.
" Y'know, I felt the same with Rosalie. Everybody feel the same when it comes to asking out a girl that REALLY matter."
"But…I don't even know her. She's probably like the other girls." I wish not…
" I don't think so. She doesn't look or sound like the other girls you had dated. She's different. In a good way."
"She's not my type anyway."
"And what's your type?! Tall blonds with huge artificial boobs? "
"What? No... I don't even know what my type is… "
"I'm going to tell what your type is. It's Bella. Dude, if only you could see how you look at her… You're definitely in love."
"I can't love her! I've just seen her for like 10 minutes! I don't even know her!"
"That's called love at first sigh."
"Oh c'mon Em! How can you believe in love at first sight?! It's a girl thing."
" It's not! The proof: I fell in love with Rose the first time we met."
"You met in kindergarten."
"Exactly!"
"You can't fell in love that young."
" Yes you can."
"No you can't."
"Yes."
"No."
"Yes."
"No."
"YES!"
"NO!"
"You are still fighting?! I can't believe that the same blood running in the veins of those two idiots is the same blood that is running in MY veins. Impossible…" said Alice, while entering my room.
"I have to admit it Alice, you're right. I can't believe that my growing up sons are that immature." said Esme, following Alice.
"Your mom is right, boys. You're always fighting. "approved Carlisle, sitting on my bed.
" Alright… what is that supposed to mean?! Everybody decided to do a family conference in my room?! " I replied, annoyed.
" Oh I'm sorry. You were busy?" said Alice, rolling her eyes.
" Actually, yes. I was doing my homework. "
"You don't have any homework! It's the first day of school! No teacher had given us homework!"
"Oh yeah? Well… the math teacher did! " I said.
" Not even him!" she replied.
" It's okay sweetie, let's just get out of this room. It stinks… Edward, honey, how many time do I have to tell you that you need to clean your room? It's smelling like-"
" Look… I love you all but… Just get out of my room… Please…" I said, interrupting Esme.
" Bye ! " I said, closing the door behind them.
Maybe Emmett was right… Maybe it was really love at first sight. I was really in love with Bella. It was more than a physical attraction… I wanted to get to know her. I didn't want to ruin our relationships by having sex with her right now. I was going to wait. For her. For me.
Now, I got to break up with Tanya. Really. She was an obstacle between me and Bella. The only problem was that, since she was the daughter of the basketball coach, she would probably get me out of the team, even if I was the captain. I had to be smooth with her…
A/N: I'm sorry if it's a bit short. There's not a lot of thing that happened in this chapter, except the little "Big bro-little bro" conversation between Emmet and Edward! But don't worry; I'm going to make it up to you in the next chapters ;) And thanks again for all your wonderful reviews! I decided to make a little preview for the next chapter:
PREVIEW (EPOV)
" WHAT?! HOW DARE YOU TRY TO BREAK UP WITH ME?! NOBODY TURNS ME DOWN! AND WE'RE MEANT TO BE!!" said Tanya. Or should I say growled…
"I'm sorry Tanya… but I'm in love with another girl…" I replied, deciding to be honest with her and to tell her the truth. Maybe she won't get me out of the team if she sees that I'm being sincere…
"OH YEAH? PROVE IT! "
" How am I supposed to prove it? " I said, unsure.
"KISS HER!"
