I didn't want to open my eyes. I didn't want to not see him there.
"Bella," Edward said quietly.
My eyes shot opened, and I jumped out of bed. I ran and jumped in his arms.
"You're still here!" I exclaimed.
He smiled. "I'm
here until you leave for school."
"I'll play hookey," I
said softly. "Or, let's ditch."
He rubbed his finger
across my cheek. "You don't know how tempting that is."
"Please?" I pleaded. "I don't want to lose you."
His
face changed from slightly happy to crushed.
"It'll make it
that much harder to say goodbye," he whispered.
"No it
won't," I insisted. "Please?"
He sighed. "If it's
what you want."
I squealed softly and hugged him. "Yes!"
He laughed quietly.
"You act like you've just won the lottery."
"I've won
something even better," I said happily.
He smiled. "You
are the most interesting girl I've ever met."
I kissed him
eagerly. "I know."
"Do you need a minute?" he asked curiously.
I smiled. "You wait here. I'll just go changed in the bathroom." I kissed him quickly and grabbed my clothes off the dresser.
I had a semi tight white shirt, a gray cloth shirt, my boot, and my gray flip flop.
I changed quickly and looked in the mirror. I put my hair in a ponytail, making sure to leave a strip of bangs down.
They were cut shorter than every where else.
I tied a white ribbon in my hair, around my ponytail. Just to make sure, I scrunched my ponytail a little bit so it would be curly.
I happily walked out
of the bathroom.
"That looks adorable!" Renee squealed.
I rolled my eyes.
"Yeah, well, I've got to get to school."
"I came to
tell you Edward's here," she informed me.
I nodded and grabbed my backpack. "Bye."
He was fast.
I walked outside and got in the car.
He smiled. "We're meeting everyone else at the house."
"Okay," I agreed.
"By the way," he said as he started the car. "You look cute. I mean really cute."
I kissed him. "Thanks."
He smiled. "Now, off to "school"."
I nodded. "Yep."
"You make
everything difficult," Alice said as Edward opened my door.
I frowned. "I was fixing my boot!"
He smirked. "I
would've won anyway."
Alice squealed as I
stood up. "Aw! Bella, you look adorable! Even better than when your
mom attacked you!"
I smiled. "Thanks."
I knew I was blushing. I could feel it.
"Hey Bella," Rosalie said as she ran out. "You do realize all we can do is stay here, right?"
I nodded. "I
know."
"Come on Rose," Edward said with a grin. "We can
always find something to do."
Rosalie narrowed her
eyes at him. "Ha."
He smirked.
"I don't want to
know," Alice informed them. "First, me and Rose get Bella.
Edward, go play with Emmett and Jasper."
"Bossy much?"
Edward teased.
Alice nodded. "Now go!"
He winked at
me and then disappeared.
"Let's talk," Alice said
happily.
"We've never had a girl to girl chat," Rosalie reminded me.
"Oh no," I said
quickly. "Last time, you didn't remind me that Edward could read
minds."
Alice rolled her eyes. "He's too far away now."
I sighed. "Fine."
