I know I said it would be two or three days before I updated, but I couldn't wait that long lol. Anyways, here is Chapter Two! Enjoy! :)

I ordered some Chinese takeout and sat down with my TV remote in hand. Flipping through the channels was pointless because nothing that held my interest seemed to be on. After failing to find anything worth watching on TV, I went to answer the door. I paid for my food and basically ran to the kitchen to get some silverware. I dug into my food like I hadn't ate in days. Once I finished scarfing down my takeout, I headed to find my Blackberry and return my calls. An hour later I had returned Renee and Rose's calls. It made me feel a little better to know that Rose also had a bad day at work.

I found myself suddenly sleepy. I showered quickly before climbing into bed. However, sleep did no come as easily as I would have liked it to have. Finally around midnight I passed out.

I woke up feeling refreshed and ready to take on the day's challenges. I normally feel like that after a having a hard day. I made it to work extremely early and had even swung through Starbucks on the way to get some coffee since I was out of coffee at home. I knew if I walked into work without at least one cup of coffee in my system that I would definitely tear off Edward's head if he so much as spoke to me. Although tearing his head off didn't sound bad, I decided I would like to keep my job and stay out of the slammer.

When I opened the door to my office, yes I still consider it my office, I was pleased to see Edward was not there yet. I started in on the list of costumer complaints and began to call them all back. By the time I was on my seventh call, Edward appeared in the office. He looked as though he was in a rush. He was still attempting to tie his dark green tie that accented his eyes amazingly. I made myself tear my eyes off of him when he glanced my direction. I hung up with the most recent costumer and looked his way again.

"In a hurry?" I asked with a sly smile on my face.

"Yes, I am. My alarm didn't go off this morning and I woke up late."

"Ahh. Running late on the second day. Aro wouldn't be pleased."

That statement earned me a nice glare.

"If you would excuse me, I have some things to go take of." He said while heading towards the door.

By the time lunch rolled around and I had finished all of my calls, I really wanted to go home. Just as I started to get my lunch out of my mini fridge, Edward reappeared with his own lunch. I was low on food in my mini fridge and needed to restock it badly. I only had the choice of yogurt or cottage cheese for lunch. Mentally I was kicking myself because I was half starved at this point and I didn't have time to go get something else. I reached in and grabbed a strawberry yogurt. Taking a plastic spoon from the little basket on top of my fridge, I started to slowly eat my yogurt. I felt Edward's eyes on me and cleared my throat a little bit.

"Yogurt isn't a very nutritious lunch."

"Yes it is. It's a dairy product and only has a hundred and ten calories."

"A hundred and ten calories isn't enough for a person's body to function on."

"What are you? A damn nutritionist? I thought you were an advertisement and sales manager." I was becoming angry with him rather quickly. He chuckled and smiled that crooked smile that made me melt.

"No, I am not a nutritionist. I'm just saying that's not a good decision."

"Who do you think you are? My mother?"

"Well, no considering I am a guy, I don't think I'm your mother."

"Stop acting like it then." I looked away from him then and continued eating my delicious freaking yogurt.

"So, Alice called me last night when I got home from work."

"That's nice."

"She said that you had a nice talk at lunch yesterday."

"What did she tell you?" I asked as I turned around quickly. I was panicking, if she told him something private, I was gonna kick her ass to the moon and back.

"Oh, just that you thought my hair looks like I had just had the hottest sex of the century." He said casually as he sat on his desk.

"I'm gonna kill her."

"And that you weren't interested in me. Which I find it hard to believe that any female could not be interested in me."

"That's because you have an inflated ego."

"Yes, but I have reasons to have an extreme ego."

"What are those reasons?"

"I'm incredibly sexy for one." I laughed and tried to ignore the fact that I agreed with that statement.

"I think I have a good sense of humor and I am smart if I do say so myself."

"Really? I don't know that any of these reasons are a good enough reason to have an ego."

"Yes they are and I know how to please a woman very well. One of my strongest fields if I say so myself." He said and then winked at me. And I blushed. I have got to stop this blushing shit. I finished my yogurt and stood to walk out the room before I embarrassed my self any more.

"Where are you going Bella?"

"Wherever the hell I wanna go." As I walked out into the hall I dialed Alice's number. Four rings later, she answered.

"Hey hoe bucket!" I heard her high pitched voice say.

"I am going to kill you in your sleep."

"Damn! You sound pissed. What did I do this time?"

"I can't believe you talked to Edward about lunch yesterday!"

"Oh. What did he tell you?"

"That you called him after work and told him that I wasn't interested. He also said you told him that I said his hair looked like he had just had the hottest sex of the century!" Her little chime like laugh filled my ear.

"He is such a little liar! I didn't call him! He freaking called me and pretty much begged me to tell him!" By now she was laughing so hard that I started to laugh as well.

"I'm sorry that I threatened to kill you in your sleep Alice."

"It's cool Bella Boo."

"Alright. I think I am gonna go interrogate your jackass brother now."

"Have fun!" I hung up the phone and made my way back into "our" office. Edward was sitting at his desk with his fork halfway to his mouth before I snatched it out of his hand and threw it to the ground.

"What did you do that for?"

"You called Alice and begged her to tell you what we talked about at lunch yesterday?" I asked, getting straight to the point.

"What makes you think that?"

"I just called her."

"How do you know she wasn't lying to you?"

"Seriously? I've known her for four years. I've only known you for a day and a half! Who do you think I am going to believe?" I questioned while take a step towards him.

"I would trust me."

"You are unbelievable!" His hands shot forward and grabbed my hips pulling me to stand between his legs as he stayed seated.

"Am I?"

"Get your slimy hands off of me!" I squealed.

"My hands are not slimy. I just washed them."

"You know what I mean!" He stood then and pulled me even closer.

"I don't think I understand."

"Maybe this will help you then." I delivered a smack to his face with a smile across my face. His hands dropped from my hips as he clutched his face.

"Ouch! What the hell was that for?"

"For being a jackass and touching me."

"Most women don't have a probably with me touching them!" He hollered.

"I'm not most women."

I left work early and went on to go grocery shopping. Two tiring hours later, I was home with the groceries put away and dinner on the stove. I went to my room and changed into some comfy black yoga pants and a leopard print cami. Bras were optional at home. I chose to ditch my bra and go for full comfort. Just as I pulled my cami over my head, I heard a knock on my door.

"Coming!" I yelled, hoping whoever was at my door heard me. As I furiously tried to pulled my hair into a messy bun, I ran to my door. When I opened it, there stood Edward. He still had his suit on and his briefcase in tow.

"Aro gave me your address and ask me to drop off these papers he wanted you to look over. He said he forgot to give them to you before you left and I was just on my way home." He said while he took in my appearance.

"Thanks. I would invite you in, but..."

"It's a nice little place you've got here." He cut me off, stepping into my apartment. I shut the door and turned to see he was sitting on my couch with his feet on my coffee table.

"Feet off." Shoving his feet off my coffee table and crossing my arms, I glared at him.

"Mmm, something smells good."

"I'm making fried chicken to put on a salad."

"Sounds great. When will it be ready?" He shrugged out of his suit jacket and threw his tie on the carpet along with his jacket.

"I didn't invite you in."

"You didn't have to."

"No kidding." I went to the kitchen to check on the chicken and Edward followed me. As I poke and prodded the chicken, he leaned against the counter and whistled.

"If I feed you will you leave?"

"Eventually." I took out two plates and filled them with salad fixings.

"Open the cupboard above you and get a bag of croutons."

"Yes ma'am." He saluted. I continued to cook the chicken as he watched me. The next thing I knew, he was standing directly behind me with his hands once again on my hips.

"What do you think you are doing Edward?"

"Touching you." He whispered in my ear causing me to shudder and him to laugh.

"I think you should stop."

"And if I don't want to stop touching you?"

"Then I guess you are out of luck."

"I'm never out of luck Bella."

"That's what you think.." My voice trailed off when he snaked his arms around my stomach and he rested his head on my shoulder.

"Correct. That is what I think."

"Okay, the chicken's done." I wiggled out off his grasp and divided the chicken between our salads. We ate in silence, much to my pleasure. While I cleaned up, he went to watch TV like any other typical male would. Leave the cleaning to the woman.

I joined him on the couch a few minutes later. He had turned on some form of a horror movie. I instantly freaked. I hated horror movies and when I watched one I end up not being able to sleep for days. I had to get him to change the channel. But how did I do that without him knowing why I wanted the channel changed?

"My place, my TV, and my pick of the show if you are staying here longer." I said as I stretched across him to get the remote.

"Uh uh. No way." He said, lifting the remote in the air. His movement caused me to land chest first in his lap. I sat up as fast as possible before he could tell I didn't have a bra on. Something tells me he had figured it out because of the smirk he had on his face.

Half way into the movie, I was hiding my eyes behind my blanket. I hadn't noticed until that point that Edward had his arm wrapped around my shoulders and me pulled into his side. I was shivering for a few reasons. One, I was cold. Two, I was absolutely terrified by the movie. And three, I was too close to Edward for my comfort. He picked up on my shivering and pulled me closer. Once the fifth person got killed in the movie by the mysterious serial killer, I was basically sitting in Edward's lap. Much to his liking might I add. I screamed when out of no where my favorite character got drug into the dark woods and her screams were muffled.

"Turn it off, turn it off, turn it off!" I was practically begging Edward at this point. I was relieved when I looked up to see he had turned on a cooking channel instead.

"Scared are we?"

"No. Why would you think I'm scared?"

"Well, maybe because you are curled up in my lap and gripping onto my shirt for dear life." He chuckled. I looked down to see he was indeed right. There I sat in his lap, holding onto his now wrinkled dress shirt. I moved my hands off his shirt and laughed a little.

"Sorry, I guess the movie got to me." I tried to crawl off his lap but he held me there by wrapping his arms all the way around my back. I relaxed into his arms and sighed.

"It's alright. Some people can't handle horror movies."

"I would be one of those people."

"I'll say."

"But you like that I'm scared shitless, don't you?" I questioned him with a slight smile.

"Yes. I mean look where you are at."

"In your lap." I replied. I looked up at Edward and wondered if the top three buttons on his shirt had been unbuttoned for the whole night or not.

"Yes."

"Yes what?"

"Yes, they have been unbuttoned the whole time." He said while his eyes stayed glued to the TV.

"How did you know what I was thinking?"

"I'm good like that."

"Oh crap! It's dark..What time is it?"

"I don't know. Eleven thirty maybe."

"You should be getting home Edward." I yawned.

"Probably." That's all I remember him saying before I fell asleep in his arms.

I began waking up and looked around to see that I was still on the couch. The clock read 2:18 A.M. I sat up and caught a glimpse of papers on the coffee table. Picking them up, I made my way to my bedroom. I turned on my bedside lamp and looked at the post-it-note stuck onto the stack of papers. I had to squint to read it in the dim light.

Bella,

I am sorry that I didn't get to say goodbye, but you did pass out on me..literally. Anyways, I just wanted to thank you for the lovely dinner and putting up with me for the evening. I'll see you at work tomorrow. Sleep tight.

Edward

I smiled to myself. I was oddly surprised by how sweet the note he left me was. Most guys wouldn't bother to leave a note. I started to think maybe he wasn't so bad after all.

Thursday passed quickly without much trouble. Edward wasn't a major pest and that I was thankful for. It made life easier when I didn't have bastards screwing up my day. Friday was different however. I think Edward made it his goal to piss me off as much as possible. And oh boy did he succeed. When I got home that evening I was beyond ready to relax and forget about work. I drew myself a bubble bath so I was able to unwind. I was almost ready to get in the tub and enjoy the candlelight and some mellow jazz music when my damn phone rang. Aggravated, I walked over to it and answered it.

"Hello?"

"Hello."

"How in the hell did you get my number?" I was furious.

"Alice."

"Edward. I am not in the mood to talk to you. You were an ass all day! All I want to do right now is enjoy my bubble bath!"

"A bubble bath?"

"Yes. A bubble bath. Is that not okay with you?"

"It isn't okay with me."

"And why is that?"

"Because I won't be joining you."

"You are a sick, disgusting, repulsive, and a truly annoying human being!" I screamed into my phone. I then hung up on him and shut my phone off. I was going to enjoy my bubble bath and forget about my horrible day.

I spent my weekend at home relaxing and catching up on some much needed cleaning. I even found the spare time to go for a jog on Sunday afternoon. The weekend had me rested and ready to go back to work. I was going to make it through this week.

Monday morning at the office went well. Edward had a meeting and wasn't supposed to be in "our" office till after lunch. I met Rosalie and Alice for lunch and we had a blast. It had been quite a while since the three of us had been together all at the same time. I returned to the office and was disappointed to see Edward was there. However, to my surprise, he didn't speak to me the whole day. If he wasn't making a call, he was typing furiously on his laptop. I got out of the office later then normal. I had planned on going to the gym that night, but I felt so drained that I just went straight home instead.

Tuesday was quite different from Monday. Aro was not in his office and basically gave everyone the day off after lunch. I however, had to stay and work on some paper work Aro left behind for me. It just so happened that Edward decided to stay and talk to me the entire time.

"Why exactly was Aro not here today?"

"He had some form of "business" trip. Aka he had a hot date." I stated.

"He takes a day of work for a date?"

"I'm sure you have done it before too Edward." He was silent and I took that as a yes.

Edward followed me home from work against my wishes. I was ready for him to leave alone at this point and I was desperately thinking of threats that could scare him.

"If you don't leave, I am going to pour acid down your pants so it burns you precious little manhood off!" I threatened as I set my things on the kitchen counter.

"You just wanna look at it. Admit it. And besides, you wouldn't." I reached into my cleaning cupboard and waved the bottle of acid in his face.

"Okay, maybe you would." However, that didn't keep him from staying longer. However, I kept the bottle of acid sitting on the table the entire time until he left.

Okey dokey! That's it for this chapter. Thanks for reading! If you have the time or care to please review. I won't hate you if you don't. I am gulity of not reviewing every story I read. Depending on my free time and how bored I am depends on when the next chapter is put up. I'm thinking an Edward's point of view is in the near future. Outta get a look inside his pretty little head. ;) Thanks again!
