Hey guys! I'm still alive! Let's move on the story shall we?
I haven't told them about my embarrassing incident because I know my friends too well and I also know I wouldn't hear the end of it. But because I needed to tell someone about it I finally told them. And I was right.
"Oh my gosh! And you just decided to tell us this now? Actually, you even had to decide to tell us at all?" Alice managed to drop another one of her luggage in the parking lot. We were loading the car hoping to be early for our flight but with Alice in full force mode of interrogating me I see that as impossibility. Rosalie was just amused by all of it but I can see curiosity in her eyes also expecting me to explain. I glared at her and she gave me a shrug and sheepish grin.
"Oh come on Alice! Are you really going to be this melodramatic? I just knew you'd hound me about it and besides we're going to be late for our getaway." I had to use that word so she'll be reminded that we were supposed to be on vacation mode not get-Bella-to-spill mode.
"Fine. But don't think I'll let this go. Once we're on the plane you're telling me everything young lady!" Alice glared but Rose and I couldn't hold in our amusement anymore so we bursted. Oh boy, I'm in deep shit with Alice. She just had to know every single detail in my life.
Once we've loaded all of our suitcases which reminds me, I think Alice and Rosalie should be sued or at least made to pay an extra fee if we were to ride a normal plane because of excess baggage. You'd think they we're going to move. Going back, we did our traditional farewell to our loft by holding hands and bowing in front of our apartment building. People would call us crazy but we'd like to pay respect to our home. After all, we paid for it with hard-earned money. Alice and I jumped inside her canary yellow Porsche while Rose went to her rose red Audi convertible. They're very ostentatious when it comes to cars. Guys would be put to shame if they were to compete on car knowledge. I owned a crow black Mercedes Benz because Alice insisted it'd fit my personality. Well come to think of it, it did fit me well. I was always the one with the dark mood while Alice is just bursting with energy just like yellow while Rosalie is oozing with sex appeal and mystery just like red. Huh. I was so wrapped up in my own bubble I didn't notice the car stop. A few more steps to go and goodbye New York.
"Okay, is everyone ready? I have a checklist if you need one." Rosalie was the neat freak among us and if it hadn't been for her our lives would be in total chaos. "Chillax Rose! We're good. Everything's fine. We're going to board now okay?" I told her like I was calming a hysterical patient. "Stop it Bella! It isn't funny. What if the plane crashes and we forgot to bring something that could have helped us survive? You should be thanking me in advance." Rosalie snapped. "Forgive us O, All-Knowing One. We owe you our lives." I and Alice pretended to bow our heads and arms as we snickered at Rosalie's face.
The tickets I have were first-class but we were still made to sit on our respected seat nos. and unfortunately the chairs are only for two people. On second thought, I was fortunate because I could avoid confrontation from Alice so when Rosalie was sweet talking the stewardess I told her I was okay with it since it'll only be a 7 hour flight tops. "Are you sure? I could change their mind you know." Rosalie sure was charming but I declined. "I'm going to be okay. At least I'd be able to put hold Alice's questioning for a while." we exchanged knowing smiles.
The seat I was assigned to was two rows in front of Rosalie and Alice's. There was no one on the window seat yet so I decided sit there. I braced myself for the plane ride with a book and a playlist to keep myself busy. And I won't have to strike up a conversation with my unknown seatmate if I had one. I was about to start my reading when he finally arrived. Man was he a He. He looked like an angel trapped on earth. His face consisted of storm gray eyes that could take anybody's breathe away with a crooked nose just to justify his humanity but still imperfect was perfect. He's got that square jaw and high cheekbones but those lips were very familiar. I was just hoping they weren't. I stopped my ogling and hurriedly buried my nose in my book hoping he wouldn't notice me.
"Excuse me miss but I believe you're in my seat." Oh right. Crap. But that accent is killing me. I can't let him recognize me so I made up my excuse.
"Do you mind if I sit here instead? I just find it more calming to be beside the window. I have motion sickness problem and if I stay at my seat I might end up ruining both our seats so..." Oh God. I just hope he'll take the bait. I'm such an idiot.
"Oh. If that's the case please remain in my seat. Would you like me to order you some water, Ms. Rosy Cheeks?" Oh crap. How did he even know? I lowered the book away from my face and finally looked at him. I probably shouldn't have looked up because he was just so damn beautiful. His eyes were dancing with laughter and his lips were curved into a mischievous grin. I just did what I do best, I blushed.
"I, um, who are you exactly?" Of all the things to say Bella and that's what you came up with? "I'm Edward by the way. How about you? Do you have a name other than Ms. Rosy Cheeks?" He was still grinning that stupid grin.
"If you must know, my name is Bella. Why are you here? Are you stalking me?" Okay that was rude but he provoked me first. His amusement didn't even falter.
"Well if you must know, I'm also a passenger of this flight and I'm not really the type to stalk people. I ask my people to locate a person for me." He laughed like it was joke. Even though I loved the way his laugh shot sparks all over my body it was still at my expense so I continued to glare.
"Are you done laughing at my expense now? Fine. If you're not going to disappear then I'll just request for another seating arrangement that is far away from you." My hormones are saying otherwise about me wanting to get away from him because I want so badly to be close to him. God, I'm hopeless. "Excuse me miss, may I sit elsewhere? I don't feel very comfortable to where I'm seated." I pulled my sweetest and most convincing smile.
"I'm sorry Miss but you want to be seated away from him?" giving me a stare like are- you- crazy- you're- practically- seating- with-a-god kind of stare but she blushed and quickly rephrased her response. "I'm sorry Miss but we are about to lift off so if you could please bear with us. Thank you." And she walked away just liked that. I heard someone chuckle and I immediately glared at him.
"Well I guess we're stuck together." He dazzled me with his smile as he sat beside me that I just blushed in defeat and returned to my book hypersensitive of his presence next to me. I was determined to ignore him for the rest of the flight. A few moments later there was suddenly a beautiful head leaning on my shoulder. I was about to be ready to accuse him of not just being a stalker but a pervert as well when I saw that he was fast asleep with a face of an innocent hot guy LEANING ON MY SHOULDER! This guy was sent to torture me. This is going to be the longest ride of my life.
So what did you think? Review my darlings! Review! Love, D
