Chapter 14: the junket

BPOV

It had been a day since my near encounter with Edward but I was still aware that he was nearby. Since my realisation of who the lead actor was I felt different. There seems to be this buzz around me, which seems to leave me when I am alone. I have been thinking a lot about Edward and what it would be like to interview him. I wonder if he remembers me- probably not. I don't think I meant anything to him back then and I'm still just plain Bella.

Today was the day before the lottery winner would be announced. The organisers decided to make the lottery a secret so we would just find out if we won and if you didn't you would be none the wiser. I was nervous about the outcome. I didn't really want to confront my past but my job depended on it. Today I decided that I would do a little bit of research on Edward and find some questions to ask him. Because I already knew who the lead male was gave me an edge that all the other reporters didn't have. For my job's sake I hope I get to interview him.

I hadn't seen the brunette reporter again. I was disappointed. I knew that if I wanted her to interview me I needed to get to know her better so as not to be surprised by her questions. All I knew at this point in time is that I had ruled out most of the female reporters because all they wanted was a 'hook up' at this convention and because the brunette had not been one of these she had become top of my list. However I had a feeling that she was avoiding me.

Once I had finished typing up my interview questions I decided to go down to the bar and get a drink and some dinner.

The bar was quiet tonight, most nights had all the reporters getting together to suss out who the lead was- still no one had any idea. I had then begun to wonder why Edward was hanging around with reporters rather then the actors. As I was thinking about this my dinner arrived and I started eating. However about five minutes into eating I felt a buzz around me. I knew that Edward must be close by. I had put this 'buzz' down to nerves. I had decided then to quickly eat my dinner and leave before he could talk to me. I didn't look up until I had finished my dinner. As I went to leave I felt this weird electric current pass through my arm and give my body a warm fuzzy feeling. As I looked toward what had given me this 'shock' I saw Edward looking down at me. This was the first time in years since I had seen him and all my past memories went through my mind. He was gorgeous, and everything that an up and coming actor needs to be. All I could think about in that moment was that I had to get out of here.

I finally found the brunette at the bar alone. I had this weird feeling whenever I was near her but wasn't sure what it meant. As I started to approach her I noticed that she had her head down and was quickly eating her dinner like her life depended on it. I got disrupted from my path by one of the waitresses asking for my number, I told her sorry but I was already seeing someone. This was the general line I gave every girl that came up to me. I just hadn't felt like I could be myself with them, so I came up with the line.

Once the waitress left I continued on my path towards the brunette and noticed that she had just finished her meal and was getting ready to leave. I really didn't want her to leave because I wanted to talk to her before I made my decision as to the interview. I walked quickly towards her but she didn't notice. As she got off her chair my hand brushed her arm and I felt an electric current pass through my hand up my arm and into my body. It was a weird but nice sensation. I knew in that moment that I wanted her to be the one to interview me. Then I looked down at her and I saw her beautiful brown eyes that reminded me of someone but I couldn't remember whom.

A/N: any ideas on the title? Am thinking on the lines of 'from past to present' - what do you think? let me know
