Bad to the Bones
Chapter 6
A few weeks went by and Edward didn't look at me for once. I didn't know if it was part of his plan or that he desisted he didn't want to go any further with his plan.
Edward was someone who was mysterious. No one knew anything personal about his life except for his family. Most of the girls were always looking at him and trying to enjoy him. It always seemed pathetic how they threw themselves in his arms. The first week I was on Forks High, Edward seemed to like all the attention. But he didn't seem to be interested in them anymore.
He was only standing with his friends on the parking lot. He just bought a new motor and he was always watching it. The girls there were on the school, were only loving him more with that motor.
There he was on the other end of the parking lot as dreamy as always. I wasn't the only one who was looking; there were tons of girls who did the exact same thing. He was wearing black what made his eyes pop out of his face even more than normal. His eyes were looking at everything. Nothing went by without him seeing it and knowing it. Everything except for one, he wasn't paying any attention to me. I was nothing for him. Just something in the sky what was out of his reach. This wasn't the right determination but I had no idea how I had to say it otherwise. I wanted him to notice me. He just had to give me one look and I would be happy for another two weeks. Nobody had to say to me that I sounded absolutely pathetic, I already knew that. I just couldn't do anything about it I was way to for in love with him, to stop it. He was always on my mind, he was so perfect. Everything he did seemed to go so easy, what made it look like he was dancing and singing. The first words that I heard him say weren't the words that I wanted to hear. His voice sounded velvet but so beautiful. I was sure for 99% that he could be one of the best singers there were at the moment. It was annoying how attractive he was. Maybe if I was as attractive as he was, he would have an eye for me. A sad emotion was flowing through my veins. Why was I such a clumsy girl?
After a few steps I took I was standing in the same line as he was but he was still not looking at me. Why wasn't he looking at me anymore? I didn't like his bad site but when he was ignoring me, the feeling was even worse. For a few seconds I was standing there. Hoping that he would look at me, but he didn't. I felt disappointed, disappointed in him. He wasn't feeling anything for me. For the first time in all those weeks my eyes were finally opened. Now I knew I had to give up on him. He wasn't interested in me at all and I was only hurting myself. I had to find someone who would love me to and who couldn't do anything to me like Edward did.
In the school it was quiet. There were no fights and there wasn't a gossip going through the school. It didn't feel right; school had always been a place where teenagers are rough to each other, not nice and quiet. It actually annoyed me a little.
"Arizona! How are you?" Mike said, the blond, big blue eyed puppy. Since Edward had left me alone, Mike started flirting with me. Not that I was flirting back but he was actually getting on my nerves. That boy just couldn't stop running after me. Sometimes the puppy's behaviour was cute but that was actually only for the first week.
"What is it Mike?" I tried to say it nice.
"I was wondering if, ..." Mike said. Those words seemed to come out of his mouth rather slow.
"... you would like to go to a movie with me?" I didn't have any excuses anymore. He had asked that question so many times before that all of my excuses were used. I wanted to give him an answer when Edward appeared. He was standing in front of us with Alec next to him.
"Mike I already told you before to stay away from here." Edward's face was dark. He really was angry with Mike.
"Can't you see that she isn't interested in you at all? So stop asking that stupid question, because every time you will ask the answer will be NO!" Mike's face went pale and he looked sad. A feeling of sympathy was going through my body but on the other hand it was his own fault. I had already let him know that I wasn't interested. In Mike's eyes a bit of hope appeared.
"I want to hear it from Bella." I let go of a sigh. Mike was always so stubborn.
"Sorry Mike." He nodded and took off. Edward looked over his shoulder to Alec.
"Make sure we are covert for the next two lessons." He dragged me out of the school to his motor. Many people were watching us. He stepped on the motor and threw me a helmet.
"Where are we going?" He didn't look at me.
"To my place." He handed out his hand to help me to get on the motor. Sometimes he was a real gentleman.
He started the motor and drove away. The feeling was amazing, I couldn't even describe it. My hair was blowing in the wind; it really gave me a ruche. And I had also a chance to hold Edward. My arms were around his waist and if I was correct, so now and then he touched my arms. On my face there was a smile that couldn't get away. Everything I planned was blown away with the wind. I couldn't get over Edward I was way too far in love with him for that.
When we arrived at his house no one was there, luckily. His home was major; it almost looked like a modern castle. When we were inside the house it was even prettier.
"Wow." It was the only thing I could say. Edward didn't look at me he just walked straight to the kitchen. He always seemed to be hungry, but which guy didn't? I started walking to him; I couldn't stand there forever starring at the house. He was making a sandwich for himself.
"Are you hungry?"
"No." He pulled his shoulders up and took a bite of his sandwich. A smile appeared on his face, he was always smiling when he was eating. It was a weird thing.
"Why am I here?" He looked at me with a face that looked like he was thinking.
"Your holiday is over." His smile was changed into a grin. His hands were quick and they took hold of my waist. For a few seconds we watched each other.
"I missed you Isabella." And right after he said those words he placed his lips on mine. They were as soft and sweet as I remembered. My heart was beating again but it was going way to fast.
"So the plan is still on?" I asked him after his lips left mine.
"Yes, tomorrow I am picking you up with the motor." I was looking at him with terror. Charlie would kill me. The last time he hadn't spoken to me for days and that was just in a car. If he would see me on a motor I would be grounded for weeks.
"But then I would be grounded for weeks." I said it with a lot of despair in my voice.
"That is the thing what is making it good." The grin was still on his face. I wanted to beat that stupid grin of his face, right there. But I didn't think it would be a great idea. I would probably hurt myself more than him.
"Asshole." He nodded and finished eating his sandwich. Edward took his phone out of his pocket and dialled a number.
"Hi, I don't want to go to school anymore. Make sure that Bella is covert." He said a few other things and hung up.
"Let's watch a movie."
The only one who was watching a movie was Edward. I was only watching him, what seemed to irritate him. So now and then he turned his head in my direction. I didn't look away when he looked at me; I just stayed looking at him. Most of the time I would get lost into his eyes, they were so beautiful.
He was watching some kind of thriller. If I was correct the movie was called Death Race. Not really a movie I would pick out but it was something new. And I have always been open to new things.
After a half hour of the movie I felt a sleep in Edward's arms. They were cold but soft and protective. It was almost the end of the movie when I woke up. Edward's hand was going through my hair. He seemed to know that I was awake because so now and then he placed a kiss in my neck. When he heard me shiver, he began to laugh soft.
"You are so predictable, you know."
"Yes." My voice was difficult to hear, but he seemed to hear it.
"You know if you weren't the chief's daughter, I might have liked you." A warm feeling went through my belly. I knew for sure that I was blushing as hell.
"I am going to get a snake." He whispered in my ear, and he stood up. His phone was on the couch and that exact same moment it rang. I took it and looked at the phone. There was a video send to him. When I played it I saw Edward and Alec sitting at a bar, drinking.
A drink after another drink went into Edward's mouth. His eyes were red and he looked like he was very miserable. He looked so sad that I was feeling bad for him.
"I don't want to do it anymore Alec, I can't she is too nice." Edward said.
"I know man." Alec responds.
"Why isn't she like her father?"
"I don't know." After some other drinks Edward went further with talking.
"I can't do it anymore, I just can't." Alec tried to comfort him but Edward didn't let him.
"I am so pathetic. I am letting a girl ruin my plan." Alec gave him another drink.
"I promised to help you Edward. We are getting through this together, I promise."
Alec and Edward both drank another drink. Edward already seemed to be drunk.
"Alec I appreciate what you are doing for me man." Alec nodded.
With that the video ended. At the exact same moment Edward walked in. He saw me with his phone in my hand.
"What did you see?" I didn't answer and looked away. I was totally shocked by the news I got. He walked over to me and took the phone out of my hand. His eyes went big when he saw the video. It was clear that he wanted to say something but that he did not know what to say.
