So sorry I haven't updated in ages. I have been so busy with exams and Majorettes and everything else that goes on in my life! I will try and update regularly again, but no promises. I am so sorry again. Enjoy.

I got changed and climbed straight into bed, leaving a towel on my hair. As I settled I thought of Edward. How much I love him, how much I need him. I grabbed my phone as a text come through.

'Night Angel. I love you, always and forever. E x x x x'

I smiled and sent my reply before sleep took me under.

Friends?

I looked down at my daughter as she played at my feet. Her meaningless babble sounded in the room as she moved the teddies around on the floor, trying to make them walk. Judging the smile on her face, I'm guessing she's happy.

I smiled watching her. In two weeks she will be two and she won't be my baby anymore. She is a little girl and soon will be a young adult. Time has flown by. Everyone I see now comments on how big she is getting. She is still small for her age, due to being premature, but she is growing rapidly.

I sighed and she looked up, her eyes questioning.

"You 'kay mamma?" Her broken baby talk asked. I smiled and nodded.

"I'm fine princess. Are you 'kay?" She nodded.

"I playing." She informed me. I giggled.

"You are too cute. You know that?" She blushed a little and looked back to her toys, making them play together.

My phone alarm went off, informing me it's time to go to work. Emily huffed at the noise and glared slightly at my phone. I giggled, yes giggled, and turned it off. I kissed the top of Emily's and got up, heading for the kitchen with my tea cup. I put my cup in the sink, where Esme was washing up and kissed her cheek.

"You off?" She asked. I nodded.

"Yep, thanks for looking after her for me." Esme rolled her eyes at me.

"My pleasure, now go before your late." I nodded and grabbed my bag going back to Emily.

"Bye baby." She put her arms up, wanting me to hold her. I smiled and picked her up.

"Luff you mamma." She nuzzled my neck. I kissed her cheek.

"Luff you too baby." When she was satisfied, she loosened her grip and allowed me to put her down.

I ran out to the car carefully. The heels I put on are higher than I would like, but they go with the outfit Alice brought me. It was a simple pin stripped black pencil skirt and a gray shirt, the shoes in question are grey and match the top to the exact colour. How do I know? Alice told me.

I got in the car, chuckling at the memory of the shopping trip. Alice had loaded Emily into the car and locked her in unless I went with her. I knew Emily was in no harm, but I knew Alice wasn't joking either. Let's just say I agreed instantly.

When I pulled up to the school, I was glad to see I was one of the first teachers here. I noticed a black car was parked next to my usual space, but pulled in anyway. I turned off the car and got out, grabbing my bag and locking the doors.

The sound of heels echoed around the practically empty parking lot as I walked, making me blush, even though I know no-one can hear me. I don't like to make noise, just keep to myself. I shut the main door behind me as I entered the school, pushing some of the loose hair out of my face. Today, I had chosen to have a messy bun with two loose bits at the front. I wish I hadn't now, they are already annoying me.

I got to my class room and sat with a sigh. Getting everything I need out, I checked the clock, making sure I have time. I have plenty. I decided to go to the canteen and made my way there. I got in and wanted to walk straight back out again.

James was sat in the middle of the room, a smirk on his face as he took in appearance. I chose to ignore him and went over to the coffee machine, putting in the money and waiting for my drink. A chair sliding out from a table caught my attention.

I could feel his presence getting closer to me, making me on edge. I grabbed the cup of hot drink and turned. A shriek left my lips and the drink fell to the floor. James was stood a breath away from me, his face only millimetres from mine.

"You dropped your drink." He stated. I rolled my eyes and tried to get past him. But, he backed me up against the machine, both arms on either side of my head.

"Get away from me!" I hissed. He chuckled and reached into his pocket. I followed his hand, wondering what he was getting out. I breathed a sigh of relief when he only pulled out some money. His other hand left the side of my, taking mine in him. He placed the money in my hand and closed it around it.

"Buy another." I nodded timidly. He smiled and pulled away, finally putting some distance between use. "I'll see you later." He winked and walked off, out the room.

I got another coffee with shaky hands and stumbled back to my class room. The students won't be here for another half an hour, so I have plenty of time to think things over.

What was he playing at? If someone saw that, they would think the worst of things. I couldn't let that happen. Edward would think I was cheating, and I would never do that. I love him to much to hurt him like that.

I also have my daughter to think about. Her second birthday is only in two weeks and I don't need James to be on my back twenty-four-seven. His constant harassing is getting out of hand. I should tell someone, I know, but I don't know what will happen if I do. Will it get worse?

The bell rag just as I finished my drink. I put the paper cup in the bin and opened the door, welcoming the class into the room. The all smiled and said hello as they walked in. I smiled back and went back to the front, beginning the teaching.

By the end of the lesson, the whole class were snickering and laughing in my direction. I looked down at myself self-consciously. What are they laughing at. I raised my eye brow at them and they quietened immediately.

I shook my head and carried on. The laughter carried on and I found myself blushing.

"Read paragraph twelve and thirteen, then make notes in your books." They all groaned and I smiled, sitting on my chair.

I watched over them as the wrote away in their books. A couple of boys in the back of the class were whispering to each other. I stood with a huff ad walked over, leaning so I am their level.

"Talking about anything interesting?" I asked. Their head snapped my way and they shock their heads vigorously. I nodded, unbelieving. "You sure?" I questioned. One of the boys eyes flashed down an his eye widened before they came back to my face.

"Certain." He squeaked, swallowing hard. I smiled and nodded, standing up straight and going back to my desk.

The boys didn't talk again through the lesson, getting on with their work. Five minutes before the bell was due, a knock sounded on my door before James popped his head in.

"Mrs Cullen. Can I have a word please?" I swallowed and nodded.

"Of course Mr Thompson. Class, you can pack up and talk quietly if you wish." As soon as the word left my lips, they were packed and talking to each other.

I joined James outside. He looked me up and down before his eyes settled on my chest area.

"Up here James." I sighed. His eyes didn't move, but a smile came onto his face.

"I like my view here actually." I looked down and gasped. The top buttons of my shirt had undone, showing him my bra and a lot of cleavage. My face went crimson. That's what the class was laughing at. Thinking that made my cheeks go even darker. I quickly fumbled with the buttons as I did my shirt up.

"I bet the guys in your class loved that." He started laughing and it bounced of the walls.

"What ever James." I turned and grabbed the handle.

"Please, wait." He sighed, placing his hand on my wrist, stopping me from opening the door. I turned to face him again, looking at the floor.

"I want to apologise for this morning. It as wrong of me to do that." He sounded sincere, but I don't want to believe him.

"It was wrong, James. I hate that you have to do things to me on a daily basis." He shook his head.

"I am so sorry." I nodded.

"Okay. Just don't let it happen again." He smiled.

"I promise. Can we be friends?" His smiled was nice, not creepy like usual. I have never seen this smile.

"We can try." His smile got bigger, and I found myself smiling too.

"thanks Bella. Can I have a hug?" He asked, opening his arms. I bit my lips. One won't hurt. Right?

I nodded and let him wrap his arms around me. It only lasted seconds but it wasn't creepy or weird. He let me get back into the classroom, to dismiss my students. I thought about my discovery so I was beet red when I walked in. The whole class irrupted in laughter when they noticed my face. I rolled my eyes and let them go early for lunch.

When the last bell rang, I was happy to leave and go home. I grabbed all my things and took them to the car, getting into the drivers seat. James got in the car next to mine and flashed me a smile as he reversed out the lot. I smiled back and followed after him.

I got home faster than usual, just wanting to be with my husband after a long day. I was glad to see he was home, Carlisle's car was in the driveway. I climbed out the Volvo and went up to the house, dumping my bag by the door.

"Honey, I'm home." I sang. I heard laughing from the front room and went there. Everyone was in there. Carlisle and Esme were on the love seat, holding hands, they looked so sweet together. Edward was on the settee with Emily on his lap. She was sleeping against his chest, clutching a teddy I have never seen before. It was bigger than her, but it was lovely.

"Where did that come from?" I found myself asking.

"I couldn't resist." Edward smiled. I chuckled and walked over to him, kissing his lips softly. When I pulled away, I rested my forehead against his, looking into his dazzling green eyes.

"I love you." I blurted and blushed. He kissed my lips chastely again.

"I love you too." He smiled. I nodded, satisfied.

I sat next to him on the settee, slipping my shoes of and stretching my toes out. God those shoes hurt.

"Good day dear?" Esme asked. I nodded hesitantly. She noticed. "What happened?" She pressed.

"I flashed at my twelve year olds." Edward was trying to control his laughter and Esme and Carlisle looked shocked.

"How did that happen?" She asked.

"My buttons on my shirt came undone and none of them told me. I had to hear it from James. " I rolled my eyes.

"James?" Edward asked, surprise.

"Yeah James." I bit my lips, looking down. "He apologised for everything and asked if he could be my friend." Everyone looked shocked. They had all heard about my dislike for James.

"I hope you told him where to go." Carlisle told me. I sighed.

"Not quiet." Esme tutted.

"You didn't say you would be his friend." She asked.

"I said we could try." They all shook their heads.

I groaned and got up. I can't do anything right anymore.

"I'm going to bed." I huffed and grabbed my bag, walking up stairs.

Good? Bad? Can I have a review? Lol.

Thanks for reading.
