Chapter 11: Coffee
AHH GET EXCITED! Here it is!
APOV
I sat at the table at Starbucks alone, twisting my hands in my lap nervously. I went over the plan in my head again and again.
Step One: Make Edward feel as welcomed as usual. Don't give off any weird vibes.
Step Two: Do NOT mention Bella. Under any circumstance.
Step Three: Talk about how much we had missed having him around.
Step Four: Convince him to let us throw almost a "Welcome To The Nieghborhood" party. (That would be the tough part).
Step Five: Casually introduce him and Bella.
Step Six: Make them run an errond for me so they'll be along for a couple hours.
And finally Step Seven: Smile and be proud when they make beautiful babies.
Okay, so that one might take a bit longer than the rest but if it all makes Bella smile again, I'd be okay with that.
"Alice?" I heard a smooth voice ask behind me. I turned quickly to see Edward standing there, a light smile on his face.
"Edward!" I stood and hugged him. Which was a little hard considering he was like a foot and a half taller than me.
"Ali, it's been too long."
"I know! I'm sorry about calling so late last night. I know you must still be getting use to everything and unpacking..."
"Al, it's okay." He said sitting down opposite of me. "Besides I needed a little coffee this morning to help me with the damn jetlag."
I smiled. "That reminds me, how was Chicago?"
You see, Edward use to go to school with Jasper and they were always really close. But after they graduated, Edward took off to become a teacher at his old highschool in Chicago. It had been a couple years since he had visited but Jasper would always go up and spend a couple weeks with him.
Edward rolled his eyes and took a sip of his steaming coffee.
"It was alright I guess. I'm really only going to miss my students, but other than that, there was nothing keeping me there. Even my parents left to move to Florida."
I smiled and told him, "Well, we really missed you. Jasper needs some more guy friends."
Edward laughed. "And what about you guys?"
"Oh, everything here is good, you know... the usual." I gave him my signiture Alice-Smile and he grinned at me.
I noticed then how very...English teacher-y Edward looked. He was wearing jeans and a white long sleeve shirt with a gray vest over it.
It was very a Ezra Fitz kind of outfit.
His crazy copper hair was the same as always and his green eyes were bright. He hadn't changed in the last couple years, except for the fact that he looked a little older.
"So, Edward. I was thinking, since you're moving in and you need to meet some new people, we could throw you a sort of... 'Welcome to the neighborhood' type party!"
And for some ridiculous reason, Edward looked schocked.
Did he like forget how amazing I am at having kickass parties?
"Alice, I don't know if that's a good idea-"
"I knew you were going to say that, which is why I already sent out the group text inviting everyone over, before you got here. Don't worry hun, you'll thank me later." I smirked at his expression and the stood up.
"Edward, really, it was great seeing you again. I'll text you our adress later and you can come over around 8. People will start to arrive at about 9." I bent over and hugged Edward who was still sitting, and still looking...well, shocked.
"See you tonight!" I said, over my shoulder as I walked out.
Step One, Two, Three and Four- complete.
A/N: Okay! So there it is, folks. Our Eddie is a sexy high school English teacher(Something I actually wanna be someday!) who is moving to Savannah from Chicago! And just to clear things up-just because Alice and Jasper know Edward doesn't mean Bella and Edwrad have ever met before. He moved shortly after college graduation and he did NOT go to school with Bella or Rose or Em. The only people in that circle that he knew were Alice and Jasper. I would assume that yes, Ali has probably mentioned Edward to Bella in the past, but Bells never exactly dwelled on it because she was "too involved" with her own angel. So, I'm probably going to write maybe 4 or 5 more chapters tonight and then a couple more tomorrow. By Friday, I'll start posting the others!
You know what to do! ReViEw!
