I don't own Twilight or the song ;)
Bella POV
I've been trying to avoid Edward the whole week; which is quite hard considering how small the school is. Alice and Rosalie had my back for the whole thing and helped me avoid him; I've even been taking my time on tests so I can stay in during lunch hour or hiding in the bathroom. When he did manage to catch up with me, which was quite often, I blew him off and ignored all his texts and calls.
He's been getting me flowers, sending me letters, chocolates, an expensive gift card to my favourite book store, and concert tickets; I simply gave it all back to Alice, it was starting to get hard to ignore him. I didn't see him all day Friday which I guess was a good thing, but I was a bit worried what he was going to do next.
Charlie POV
"Chief, Edward Cullen would like to see you," said Deputy Ryan.
"Send him in," I said, I looked up from my paper work and Edward walked in. "What did you do now Cullen?"
"Nothing illegal Charlie," he replied.
I don't believe him, "really? I haven't gotten any complaints about you in a while, I was talking to the principal and he too said you've stayed out of trouble for a while. Are you turning yourself in or something?"
"No, I've just lost interest in pranking."
"So why are you here?"
"I'm here about Bella."
"Bella?! What about her?"
"I-I...I'm in love with your daughter."
Now I know why he lost interest in pranking, "why are you telling me this?"
"Because... I messed up."
"What did you do?"
"I always did like your daughter but I didn't think she would like a guy like me. I started hanging out with other girls and stuff...and now she doesn't trust me. I didn't realize how much I liked her until I lost her."
"Have you told her how you feel about her?"
"Yes but she doesn't believe me."
"Then show her."
"How?"
"Edward I've know you since you were twelve years old; you're always improvising, you will figure something out."
"...actually I do have an idea... Can you distract Bella for half an hour?"
"Sure."
"Thanks Charlie!"
"Edward you're a good kid; but if you hurt my daughter again I won't hesitant to hurt you."
"I swear I'll never hurt her again!" And he ran out of my office.
Bella POV
Charlie got me to make dinner tonight saying I should learn some of my grandma Swans recipes. It took a while to decipher it, but I got it. After we ate Charlie wanted me to watch the game with him. I lasted an hour until I got too bored and excused myself to go do my homework.
I pulled out my biology textbook and was about to sit down when something hit my window; I jumped. What on earth? I cautiously moved towards it and opened my window and looked down to see Edward, who had pebbles in his hand. He even had a small piano behind him hooked up to some speakers.
"What are you doing here Edward?" I asked trying to be quite so Charlie wouldn't hear.
"Bella I'm so sorry I treated you that way and then just expected you to feel the same way. But I wanted to let you know and then you didn't believe me... I miss you when I'm not with you, when I'm not with you you're all I think about. Bella you're my best friend, my shoulder to lean on, the one person I know I can count on, the love of my life, my one and only, my everything.
My heart swelled with joy, "but how do I know I'm not just one of those that will be gone by the end of the week?" I asked.
"Bella I went crazy this week! I knew I messed up and I will do anything to win you back and I'll do whatever it take to make you happy and I won't you go till you send me away," he said; he looks so honest and sincere...
"What's with the piano?" I asked uncertain. Edward flashed me my favourite crooked smile; he started playing a melody and then started to sing.
"Oh, her eyes, her eyes
Make the stars look like they're not shinin'
Her hair, her hair
Falls perfectly without her trying
She's so beautiful
And I tell her everyday
Yeahh
I know, I know
When I compliment her she won't believe me
And it's so, it's so
Sad to think that she don't see what I see
But every time she asks me "Do I look okay? "
I say
When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for a while
'Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are
Yeah
Her lips, her lips
I could kiss them all day if she'd let me
Her laugh, her laugh
She hates but I think it's so sexy
She's so beautiful
And I tell her everyday
Oh you know, you know, you know
I'd never ask you to change
If perfect's what you're searching for
Then just stay the same
So don't even bother asking if you look okay
You know I'll say
When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for a while
'Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are
The way you are
The way you are
Girl you're amazing
Just the way you are
When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are."
I had tears in my eyes, I feel like my heart is about to burst!
"Bella you're the most kind, caring person I know. You're smart, and beautiful; you don't know it but you are. Your funny, just being around you brightens my day. I love you, Bella." He went down on one knee and pulled out a bouquet of flowers and said, "Bella, will you be my girlfriend?" I was speechless all I could do was nod; he smiled so bright he looked like he would burst of happiness. He quickly walked over to the tree by my window and started to climb it.
"Edward! What are doing?!" I exclaimed.
"What? Is it a crime that I want to be closer to my girlfriend?" He asked; then hopped through my window and hugged me. We stayed like that for a bit, not moving.
"Why did you do it?" I asked.
"Do what?"
"Go out with all those girls?"
"First of all I never dated any of them, second... I didn't think you liked me and that there was no way you would like a guy like me."
"Edward your crazy, who wouldn't want to go out you."
"You didn't."
"That's only because I was confused, and I didn't think you actually liked me."
"Bella, you heard what I said earlier, and I meant every word of it." He lifted up my chin and looked me in the eyes. His hand cupped my face and he leaned in and was just millimetres from my face. I felt my heart rate speed up, is he going to kiss me?! He kissed my cheek and said, "I better get out of here, it's getting late and you should get some sleep." I was a bit disappointed but at the same time I'm ecstatic.
"Okay, but can you use the door? I don't want you to get hurt," I said.
"You sure the Chief won't hurt me?"
"I won't let him."
"Okay."
"Come on," I said and grabbed his hand and lead him downstairs.
"Hi Chief Swan, bye Chief Swan," said Edward as walked through the house towards the front door. Charlie looked a bit amused; I blushed as we went outside. I helped Edward gather his things and put them in his car. When we were done we ended up laying on the hood of his car staring at the stars.
"I can't believe you did that today," I said.
"It was worth it," he replied and kissed my cheek, "I should get going, but I'll see you tomorrow right?" I nodded. We got off his car and he walked over to his door, "can we go somewhere tomorrow?"
"Sure," I replied.
"Great," he hugged me and kissed my forehead, "have sweet dreams Bella," and got in to his car and drove off. I stood there for a bit smiling; I can't believe what just happened. I shook my head and went inside.
"What's got you smiling so much?" asked Charlie. I blushed, "you two dating now?"
"Uh-ya," I said blushing harder.
He chuckled, "he's a good kid, but if he ever hurts you again tell me and I'll go hunt that kid down."
"I'm sure you will."
"...he's a good kid though; he came to my work today too."
"He what?"
"He came by to my work today asking for my advice on you; looked like a wreck."
I felt myself blush ever harder, "I'm going to bed, goodnight."
"Oh and Bella."
"Yes dad?"
"If Edward ever comes through your window again I'll put metal bars on it to keep him out."
"Dad!" I groaned.
"I don't want that boy sneaking in to your room at night."
The song is by Bruno Mars and it's called "Just the Way You Are."
