By the way in case you haven't already figured it out, Jacob lives in Forks not on the Reservation

And I have no idea how you spell it when someone coughs so.... you'll know what I mean pretty soon.

"He was saying how he was going to get you back and how he's seen the way-"

"We're back!" Emmett shouted.

Chapter 5 – The Feisty Angel

Edward blew out in frustration and turned to glare at Emmett, "Great." He forced out sarcastically. Alice looked between Edward and Bella, she clocked on a second later.

"Emmett, I think mum called you."

"What? I didn-"

"Go!" She shoved him out of the door and yanked the others with her.

"What was all that about?" Bella asked in confusion, "Esme went out."

"I have something I need to tell you." Bella's breath caught. He carried on, "You know how we've all been best friends for years?" She nodded. "We all love you but..." Tears sprang to her eyes – he was going to say he didn't like her, he knew how she felt!

"But I don't love you the same way, I love Rosalie, Jasper and Emmett like siblings but with you it's different. I love you Bella and I've never been able to tell you." She looked around the room in silence.

"Right erm... I'm just going to run away and hide." He started to get up.

"Wait!" She grabbed his arm and pulled him back down, "Why didn't you tell me?"

"Because you got with Jacob before I could."

"I only got with him because I thought you'd never go for me and then I started to like him a bit so I stayed, I felt awful but then I found out about the others."

"So... you mean?" She nodded, her eyes glistening with tears.

"I love you too." He swept her up and span her around the room, she giggled and they couldn't stop smiling.

"Oh my god! Finally, I thought you two would never get together!" Alice exclaimed as they skipped back into the room. Bella stared at her in shock.

"What do you mean?"

"Edward has loved you for years and it was obvious you loved him too, plus we tried so hard to get you together."

"You did what?" They said together.

"Well first we managed to get Edward to catch Bella, we convinced Bella to end it with Jacob, made you dance together and get soaked and we got you to spend the whole day acting like a family." Bella went over to her.

"Thank you." She gave everyone a hug, "And you!" She rounded on Edward, who looked worried, "Let's go out." He beamed and held out his hand.

"Let's go."

Alice and Rosalie sighed happily while Jasper and Emmett grinned.

"That is so sweet; I wonder where he'll take her."

"Hang on, have they taken my car?! *&$%£"^ &*(%$£#!"

-------

"Are you sure Alice won't mind that we've taken her Porsche?" Bella asked worriedly.

"Nah, she'll be fine about it." He carried on driving into Port Angeles. He pulled into the restaurant car park.

"Hello how may I help you?" Bella didn't miss that the waitress spoke only to Edward.

"Table for two please." Edward didn't take his eyes off Bella. She led them to a secluded table and handed them menus.

"What do you want Bella?" She looked down and said the first thing she saw.

"The mushroom ravioli will be fine thanks."

"Two mushroom ravioli's and cokes please."

"If you need anything else, don't hesitate." The waitress left with a wink that Edward didn't see and walked away dejectedly.

"She wants you so bad." Bella said.

"Huh?"

"Never mind." She laughed. They fell silent for a moment; not the awkward silence she had with Jacob but a comfortable silence.

"So when did you realise you were... well falling in love?" Bella asked uncomfortably. To her surprise he laughed.

"Do you remember the first time when Alice managed to drag us all out shopping? She forced you to try on that blue dress and model for us, you made my heart stop and I never looked at you the same again." Bella looked confused, "What? Don't you remember?"

"Yes I remember, but we were about twelve then!" He nodded, "All that time?"

"Yes, but I never thought you could feel the same way – you seemed a lot closer with Jasper and Emmett." Bella blushed.

"Because I thought of them as brothers – I'd never thought of you like that and a while later I realised why." Edward grinned which made her blush more.

"So you mean, if I'd have been man enough to tell you, we wouldn't have wasted all these years?" They laughed.

"But we're happy now and that's all that matters."

"It was still torture seeing you with him."

"It was torture seeing Jessica hovering around you!" Edward took her hand and they started to lean forward...

"Ech hmm." The waitress coughed loudly. She held two plates on one arm and glasses in her hand. She gently placed Edward's down and pretty much dropped Bella's onto the table.

"Yeah thanks." Bella said sarcastically.

"I don't have to do this you know." She said with a glare.

"You also don't have to drool all over Edward when he's obviously not interested in you."

"Hmmph." She turned round with a flick of her fake hair and sauntered away, looking like she had a problem with her hips.

Edward laughed in a stunned way.

"Never knew you had it in you girl – my girlfriend, the feisty angel." Bella blushed while grinning at the term, "Now we should probably eat this before it gets cold." He nodded down at the food and Bella looked at it in surprise.

They started to eat, making light conversation and smiling a lot.

Edward and Bella set their cutlery down simultaneously and laughed.

"So how long has Alice known?" Bella asked, taking a sip of Coke.

"I'm not actually sure but she dropped hints ages before telling me she knew."

"Yeah, that sounds like Alice." Bella giggled.

"That waitress is giving you the evils again." Edward commented. Bella glanced over and gave her a sarcastic smile and wave, "Maybe we should get the bill." He said, laughing. He raised his hand and she scuttled over. He asked the bill and she came back a moment later.

He put his card into the little machine and grabbed his coat.

"Come on Bella. Thank you for your service but I won't be leaving a tip as I didn't like the way you spoke to Bella, you're lucky we paid at all." Bella stifled another giggle and took his hand.

They stepped outside and Bella shivered as the cold hit her. Edward immediately took off his jacket and placed it around her shoulders before taking her hand again.

"Thanks." She said, through slightly chattering teeth.

"No problem." They walked to 'their' car and climbed in, relaxing in the warmth.

"I really enjoyed tonight." Edward said, ignoring the keys in his left hand.

"Me too, I love being your girlfriend." She said cheerily.

"I love you."

"I-" She was forced into silence as Edward placed his lips on hers.

They broke apart at the sound Justin Timberlake Sexy Back playing. Edward looked around, embarrassed.

"Alice set that as her personal ringtone." He explained. He accepted the call and Alice's shrill voice screamed through the speaker.

"Where is my car?! You've been out ages now! I gave you time at first but I just want my fricking car back!" She carried on ranting so Edward put the phone down and turned the engine on.

"Is that on speaker?" Bella whispered, he shook his head. She put her hand over her mouth so her laugh couldn't be heard.

"Edward are you even there?!" Alice screamed as they were just about to pull into the driveway.

Edward rolled his eyes and ended the call. The Cullen's front door flew open and Alice ran out.

"Why my car?! Why not your own?! Or Emmett's?! Or even dad's?!"

"Haven't you already shouted this to me?" Edward said calmly.

She crossed her arms and ran over to give her car a hug. Bella laughed and she and Edward walked into the house, hand in hand.
