It was absolutely empty in the gym, making it look spectacularly big

Although nothing was, or even could be spectacular while Edward was present, stealing all the spot light. That's how it was to me at least.

I ignored the annoying grumble of my stomach, as I sat as high as possible on the copper wooden bleachers, hugging my knees, in attempt to ignore my stomach and relax myself.

I had asked Alice if she wanted to come with me, but after she eyed me for a while, with a raised eyebrow then a wink, I decided she better stay home and do homework or something.

I'd probably be up here, being forced to yell out encouraging words. I let out a sigh as my eyes finally focused on Edward, who was standing talking to Emmett off to the side.

Even while he talked he was so animated, and just plain beautiful. I promised myself I wouldn't ogle him, after asking myself incredulously why I had even agreed to this. Oh right, torture myself. That's always healthy right?

Isabella,

Sitting up way at the top gazing out at the beauty on the court. Secretively supporting, showing affection without words or physical contact. It warms our hearts, and makes fan girls squeal, we feel some something, a spark maybe?

Love,

Of course.

"Lord have mercy on your soul." I heard Edward say to Emmett who was laughing at Edward's glare. Even though I wasn't in on the joke, I couldn't help the giggle that escaped my lips. The sudden noise had made them both look up at me curiously. Edward broke into a breathtaking smile, once his eyes had met mine.

After all those times I had glared at him, it was seeming impossible now, as a smile broke out across my face for no apparent reason at all.

"All right." The coach got the teams attention, and both Edward and Emmett turned away from me, listening intently to whatever the coach was saying. I held my arms tighter around myself and rested my chin on my knees. I watched Edward move around the court, so gracefully even I was jealous.

He was in control of every swift movement, never having to think twice or re cap he just made things happen. I scoffed at myself when I had realized I was basically calling him God when just a week ago, I was comparing his evil ways to Satan. This pregnancy just makes me weirder by the second. The loud gym doors open, seeming to only catch my attention as the boys continued to move around the court as if the rusty huge doors were inaudible.

I was startled, hoping it was Alice about to bounce in and scream 'Bel-la!', I tried to cover my face with my knees, just in case that was the situation.

But quickly relaxed, as Jasper Hale strode in his eyes on the practice. His blonde locks bouncing as he took a seat on the very lowest bleacher, the exact opposite of me.

I thought about pulling out my phone and texting Alice, even though I would be being a total girl. I knew Alice still eyes Jasper in the hall, no matter how close Tommy and her were becoming, I saw the way she would ignore certain paths, much like I did with Edward but a little more secretively and smoothly.

"Emmett sucks!" Jasper called out, catching Emmett off guard, and I tried my very best to not giggle. I wasn't sure if I wanted Jasper to acknowledge my presence or not, so I just stayed quite. My eyes went back to the practice, and I could see Emmett grumbling from here, getting a wide smile to spread across my face.

Emmett was very entertaining, especially when I over here him talking to his partner about rabbit eyes in English. Emmett jogged over to Edward and whispered something, that obviously ticked off Edward, and just watching Edward glare at Emmett was enough to set off a giggle fit from me.

I couldn't hold it in, I loved the way his sparkling green eyes narrowed while looking at Emmett. Poor thing. Of course again the sudden giggling caught all three Emmett, Edward and Jasper attention, and some of the other players on the court that weren't involved in the current exercise. Before I could get, what I was hoping was another smile from Edward, Jasper stole the moment.

"Oh hey Bella." Jasper smiled, and much to my surprise he got up and made his way up to where I was seated, sitting next to me like an old friend hen really I hardly talked to this fellow. Actually I knew nothing about him.

"Hey." I smiled politely, blushing at the sudden attention.

"I didn't know you were here." He looked back down at the practice as he spoke.

"Supporting Edward." I let out before I could edit anything. Jasper looked back at me, looking a little surprised.

"You two are finally together?" Jasper asked, seeming thrilled with the idea. But before I could object he went on to tell me how happy he was. I could almost feel it rolling off him in waves.

"I knew it was going to happen, ever since that party at Tyler's." Jasper sighed seeming happy with himself. Now I was completely speechless, not even trying to object anymore. What the hell was Hale talking about? Tyler's party was like 2 months before the Carnival ever happened.

Oh Bella!

That party was the party that Alice forced you to go to, saying it was the even of the year, when really it was quite lame. And then you saw Edward in Tyler's kitchen and murmured a hi. You remember? We remember. Sucks if you don't.

Memory Lane.

"He wouldn't stop talking about you. Although the whole cotton candy thing wasn't the right way to start things. But still." Jasper continued, as I watched him watch the practice, my eyes pretty wide, my heard beating loud in my chest.

Jasper seemed to be done, so I tore my eyes away from his thick hair and back at the graceful Edward who was now moving around the court. Jasper had to be lying or something, maybe Edward told him to come and tell me that. But I'm better at sensing liars right? Jasper sounded so sure, so confident, it scared me just a little.

I watched Edward, and it was too late to wonder any further if Jasper Hale was lying or not. I believed him. "Hey you okay, you look sick." Jasper's voice seemed to be filled with honest concern.

"No, no, I'm fine." I choked out.

"Sure?" He asked, and my eyes stayed on Edward.

"Mhmm." I hummed nervously. Jasper seemed to relax after that, while I stayed in my silent shock, we both sat next to each other, not speaking a word, yet somehow I was calm.

"So how's Mary Alice?" Jasper asked casually.

"She's fine." I answered hesitantly, my voice still dazed as I watched Edward.

"And she's with that Tommy?" Jasper's voice didn't sound as laid back as usual, so I had to rip my stare away from Edward to look at Jasper, who even seemed to look a bit tensed up.

"Yeah.." I nodded.

"Looks like their in love." Jasper shrugged not even glancing at me.

"I think." I sighed shaking off Jasper's weird behavior and turning back to watch Edward.

"That's good." Jasper coughed.

"Yep."

"Is that where she is right now?"

"I would guess."

"Cool."

"Yep." I rolled my eyes slightly, not seeing where he was going with this, or why he had even brought it up, but I knew Mary Alice would be stoked to hear Jasper Hale asked about her. I was surprised at the excitement that went through me.

"Well tell her I said hi." Jasper's nerves were obvious as he said this and I couldn't help the smile that spread across my face.

"I'll tell her." I smiled.

"What?" Jasper laughed looking innocent.

"Nothing." I shook my head with a smile. Alice wasn't going to believe this.

Mid way through the basketball practice Jasper said goodbye to me and disappeared out the gym. But I stayed through out the whole thing, it wasn't that long, and I found myself very entertained with Emmett and Edward's behavior towards each other.

"Bella." Edward called, from the bottom of the bleachers, as the team began to follow each other into the locker room.

"Will you wait up for me?" He asked, looking slightly nervous.

"Of course." I smiled, not really knowing where my sudden confidence cam from. I blushed remembering what Jasper had said earlier about Edward liking me.

"Alright, I'll hurry." He smiled wide, and jogged into the locker rooms. Leaving me alone at the top of the wooden bleachers, looking down at the huge gym. My charm bracelet was loud as I removed a stray hair from my forehead. I looked at my bracelet and like I always do when I look at it, I'm attacked with memories.

That's probably why I still wear it. To remind me of happier times. I stared at the swan charm, that seemed forgotten, only because I never really stopped and stared at it for long.

An extreme pang of guilt hit me. The swan charm was from Grandma Swan, about 4 Christmas's ago. I'd probably have 4 more charms from her, if she hadn't died that year. I slid my bracelet off my hand to hold the charm closer to my eyes. It was a delicate little thing, it was, dark blue thinly bordering the bird, while the swan was a pearly white.

"Bella." The velvet voice caught my attention, and my charm bracelet almost slid right out of my hands. My eyes searched till they found Edward standing, looking more like a male model now, rather than the basketball star he looked like just a few minutes ago.

"Edward." I smiled wide, something that was coming naturally these days. I slid my bracelet back on my right hand.

"I thought maybe you would leave." He shot me a crooked smile, as he jumped up the bleachers, to reach me.

"I would never do that." I teased, as he got closer to the top.

"Oh no, Bella would never." He rolled his eyes, and took a seat next to me. Very close next to me.

"Alright Bella, lets hear it, how amazing am I at basketball?"

"Edward." I rolled my eyes with a giggle.

"That good?" He through his hands in the air, getting me to laugh just a little harder.

"Oh Edward you were amazing!" I laughed slapping his arm playfully.

"That's more like it." He chuckled, wrapping his arm around my waste. I didn't even try to stop him or move away. After what Jasper had told me, I don't think I ever will. Instead I rested my head on his shoulder, taking in his glorious scent.

"I'm glad you stayed." Edward murmured quietly, almost shyly.

"Me too." I turned to look up at his neck.

"I'm really sorry Bella, about everything." Edward almost whispered, and I peaked up at his eyes. Those green orbs were filled with honesty, making my heart skip a couple beats. Never had I thought Edward Masen could be so honest, then again I never thought I would sleep with him.

"I'm sorry about the carnival, I'm sorry I didn't believe you, I'm sorry I waited so long to tell my parents, I'm sorry for being a jerk." He sighed deeply. It was touching, it was sad.

Their was no doubt I forgive him, but I couldn't get the word out to confirm so. The moment was surreal, something I could only imagine myself dreaming while tucked away next to Alice in her little bed. It was something I could have continue sly told myself wouldn't have happened. I felt a lump in my throat, my hear was racing and my stomach was assaulted by butterflies.

"It really is my fault this is all happening." He continued but listening to him blame himself, made me hurt even more than I thought I could.

"No, no Edward." I stopped him turning my body, to get him to look me in the eye. He seemed surprised.

"Just stop blaming yourself please. I know I blamed you but I don't now. I cant really. The baby is going to happen either way now. Blaming isn't going to help." I whispered the last part. The words I had just spoken so confidently was definitely something I was just learning as I said it. It made sense didn't it?

"Still Bella. I deserve to feel some guilt." Edward mumbled. Instead of objecting I turned my body away and rested my head on his chest, breathing evenly, as he wrapped his arms around me.

"Edward. What am I going to do with the baby?" My voice was suddenly uneven. Breathing seemed a little bit harder.

"I don't know Bella." I heard the same unevenness in Edward's voice, his breathing seeming just a bit heavy. Edward's arms stayed tightly around me, holding me with security.

And we just stayed like that, not feeling to say anything really, because in a way it had already been said. I know he's sorry now maybe I had somehow already known that, and maybe I was in deep denial, but that didn't matter right now, all that mattered was that Edward was just as troubled as I was, possibly even more.

"I forgive you Edward. By the way." I whispered, kissing his jaw lightly.

"I knew you would." He joked kissing my cheek.

"And, I don't hate you.. Anymore." I smiled, a watery smile.

"I never hated you." Edward's eyes sparkled with amusement.

"I don't think you're Satan."

"I don't think you're heartless."

"I'm happy you asked me to the movies."

"I'm happy you agreed to it."

"I hate avoiding you."

"I love seeing you."

"And I love seeing you." I whispered, smiling slightly.

"Oh Bella." He chuckled brushing his hand across my cheek.

"Oh Edward." I laughed, as he pulled me closer to him.

I let him hold me. I let him kiss me. I let him walk me to my car. I let him agree to calling me later. I let him.

Because I wanted him too.

"Alice!" I called frantically as I ran into the house.

"What?" Alice looked up curiously as I barged into her room as she sat on her bed with a text book opened.

"I'm falling for Edward Masen." I said out of breath, while Alice's eyes grew wide. My breathing was the only thing I couldn't hear in the room. Alice stayed silent, while i let my thoughts attack me. Every time I avoided him, had i wanted him to find me? Every time I insulted him, had I wanted him to break and apologise? Was i mad to melt every time he just looked at me, or said my name. Was i crazy to love the way he kissed me or even held me. Am I absolutely insane to trust him after everything?

Yes to all of the above.

"I knew it." A smile spread wide across her face. Her dark blue eyes seemed to flash with excitement. i could almost see the horror in my eyes, as my thoughts continued to assault me.

"I'm falling for Edward." I breathed, faintly hearing Alice's squeal of joy.

A/N: Well, its always a pleasure to hear what you think :] How's the fluff?
