"Nice to meet you, Miss Swan. I've heard a lot about you.", Jasper said as me and Alice entered the restaurant. Jasper had gold-blonde hair just like Edward, and he had those beautiful, bright blue eyes. I wondered how Alice got so lucky.
"Please, call me Bella. And it's nice to meet you too, Jasper", I said, feeling a little uncomfortable.
Jasper seemed like a nice guy but I couldn't help thinking about Mr. Cullen and what was going to happen tonight, that is if I would even go tonight, but I wasn't really sure yet.
"Bella, what do you want?", Alice asked as the waiter was already writing down their orders.
"What's good here?"
"You should try the Salmon roll, that's good.", Alice said enthusiastically.
"Okay, I'll have that and the Tokyo rolls."
I had a good time with Alice and Jasper, but my mind wasn't really there. It was with Mr. Cullen. The way his lips curled when he spoke, his little dimples in his cheeks when he smiled.
We chatted a little after lunch and then I and Alice had to hurry to make it to our class.
"See you another time, Jasper. It was nice meeting you", I smiled, as I shook his hand.
"Yes, I had a nice time, Bella.", Jasper said with a polite smile.
Alice kissed Jasper goodbye and we left. They looked like a nice couple; I wondered how they met, though. Jasper seemed a lot older than we were.
"Jasper's a nice guy.", I said as we were driving back to the university.
"Well, he's my guy.", Alice said smiling fondly.
I was already late when I walked into the library. "I'm sorry I'm late, guys!"
"It's okay, Bella. We're still waiting for Angela.", Mr. Cullen said.
"Hey Bella, my name is Eric, nice to meet you.", The guy that I went to sit next to said.
"Nice to meet you, Eric", I replied. Eric had spiky black hair, and looked like hadn't been in the sun for ages, which was quite hard if you live in LA.
"I'm Mike", a bronze guy introduced himself. He was wearing a very tight T-shirt. You could tell he did work out a lot.
"There's another girl in the group, Lauren, but she couldn't come today." Mr. Cullen added.
"She never comes, actually.", Mike said.
Suddenly, a girl rushed in. "Oh my God! I'm so sorry guys. I couldn't find my car keys and…", she began to explain, but Mr. Cullen interrupted her.
"It's okay Angela, let's get started." Edward said with his beautiful crooked smile.
"Yes, I've been looking some stuff up.", Angela said as she took some papers out of her bag.
"I think the device can only work if we insert a bigger memory. What do you think Bella?", Eric asked.
"Uhm, what are we talking about, anyway?" I asked with a shy smile.
"Oh, I thought Mr. Cullen explained.", Angela said confused.
"We're working on a device that can do measurements on other planets.", our professor explained patiently.
"Well, that's cool."
"Here's the file", Mike said, giving me a big-ass binder.
"Thanks a lot, I'll read through it.", I said in appreciation.
They explained some more what they wanted to do with the device,and the class was over before I even realized it. I had been looking at Edward the whole time; I was so mesmerized by him, I couldn't even pay attention to what the other students were saying.
"Bella, thanks for coming tonight. I'm really glad there's a fresh mind in the team.", Edward said. I just smiled. I was unable to talk. Is he some ancient Greek god?
"Do you maybe want to come over and have a drink?", he asked. No way, he was asking me out!
"Well, sure, why not?", I stuttered. I couldn't believe it.
"Do you want a glass of wine, Bella?", he asked as we walked into his apartment. It was neat and modern, not the way I would've expected the apartment of a single man almost in his thirties.
"Yeah, that'll be fine." I tried to sound confident. "You know, I suppose you don't invite every student to your apartment."
"No, Bella…I'm sure Alice told you what happened last year." Why is this man so hot even when he's being so damn annoying?
"Yes, but what does that have to with us?" I got a little annoyed.
"Shh. When I found out what Rosalie had done, and how she had used me to get things done for her, it was like my entire world collapsed. I was willing to give everything up for her, my career, my family, everything."
"Well, that's sad for you but what do I have to with it?"
"Bella, when I first met you, and I don't know why it was that way, but it felt like my life had meaning again. That first night was the first night I felt good, happy again, in a long time.", he explained with a small smile.
I was unable to talk. Had he felt this way about me all along?
"Let me just try something.", he said as he approached me. I could feel his warm breath on my face.
"I'm not sure if we should…"
"Shh" he interrupted me. He caught my bottom lip in his mouth as we kissed, it felt so wonderful. Our lips separated briefly as they found a new position. The kiss was soft and gentle, not the way I had imagined kissing him would be.
We were unable to talk and just stared into each other's eyes. He picked me up and put me on his desk. I started to unbutton his shirt when he interrupted me.
"Are you sure you want this?"
"Yes, absolutely." I took off his shirt and started with his pants. Fuck, I wanted to touch that body so badly. He scooped me up and we went to the bedroom. He started taking off my clothes and opened a drawer. No, don't go away now. I was so turned on already. I could see a little package in his fingers. Oh! I went to lay on top of him, I took the package, took out the condom and started rolling it over his erected penis. I could feel myself sinking into his lap as he was kissing my neck, my shoulders and my chest. We rolled over and my teeth gently sunk into his neck.
The moment was so magical, I never wanted it to end.
