I want to thank the people that ACTUALLY reviewed. You know who you are. I didn't get ten reviews which makes me very sad, I thought you people liked my story :'( anyway, I am snowed in yet again (thank the snow for this story all four feet of it) and have a snow day tomorrow for school so I am writing this chapter. So to those of you who reviewed thank you! I left you with a cliffy, so read carefully and slowly, enjoy! Oh and by the way, start a mosh pit in church, it's fun!
Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight or any of the characters, but I did come up with the name for the restaurant. I don't own the Coca Cola Company either.
BPOV:We walked up, hand in hand, to one of the nicest Italian restaurants in Seattle. I had heard good reviews about Cibo, but I thought you needed a reservation to get in.
"Edward, you didn't make reservations did you?"
"No, but Carlisle and Esme are friends of the owners. I mean really good friends. We don't need reservations to get in, just my last name."
He gave me one of his dazzling award winning smiles, and we walked into Cibo. Edward walked right up to the podium like he owned the place. I wish I could have that kind of confidence...
"I'm Edward Cullen, son of Esme and Carlisle. I would like our usual table for two please, in the very back."
"Right this was sir and madam."
The waiter led us to the very back of the restaurant and sat us down at a very fancy table, fancier than all the rest. I felt like royalty around Edward, because he treats me like it. He is so kind to me! So nice, sweet, funny, and caring. Alice has pointed out, many times, that he likes me but I don't believe her. I'll believe that when he actually asks me out, which will be never!
"Bella, what would you like to drink?"
I could not get over how wonderfully soft his voice sounded, oh I better order.
"Actually I'm also ready to order. I'll have a Coke and the mushroom ravioli please."
"Alright and for you sir?"
His voice sounded so plain next to Edward's. Gosh why am I thinking of that boy all the time?"I'll have a Coke and the spaghetti please."
"Call me back if there is anything you need."
Ew. That was very disturbing, the doubling meaning to his words. Edward looked like he was going to chop his head off.
"Edward, calm down."
"Fine, but Bella, can I tell you something?"
"Sure, anything."
"Bella, ever since I met you, you have been a great friend. I felt an instant attraction to your kindness and warmth. You didn't even know us and you spent time with us. When the accident happened, you were so sad, so devastated. It was like an angel was so broken, shattered even. I helped put the angel back together. Bella, you are my best friend, but I feel more than that. Bella, I love you."
My whole world stopped right there. Did Edward actually love me? I thought it would be impossible for a god to love me, the broken Bella. This is my dream come true!
"Edward, I love you too, and I know your next question. I would love to be your girlfriend."
He smiled his one million watt smile and scooted closer to me. This dinner was the best one in my life. We held hands and just talked the whole time, smiling at each other. I'm so glad today was the last day of school because we could spend all winter break together! Edward Cullen as my first boyfriend, sweet!
We were walking back to the Volvo, hand in hand, when we saw Mike Newton. Every one at school who wasn't blind could clearly see that he was obsessed with me. We had to get out of here, now or a fight was going to start. You see Mike absolutely loathes Edward. He even tried to dye his hair the same color as Edward's, but it turned out orange. Then he got contacts to make his eyes look green, but they made them look like this really nasty puke color. We could obviously tell he was jealous of Edward.
"Edward, we need to go now! Mike is here."
"Ok love."
He called me love. That is the best nickname he could ever give me! Other couples have stupid nick names like boo and teddy bear. I'm so glad we aren't one of those couples.
We made a mad dash for the Volvo and made it in just in time. We drove away, then we just looked at each other and laughed. We couldn't believe that Mike Newton had made us run like little girls.
We got home around ten pm. As soon as we got inside, Alice swept me away. When we got up to her room I saw, to my surprise, Rose.
"Ok Bella and Rose, you need to talk this out. I'm sick and tired of my cousin and best friend fighting all of the time."
"Bella, I'm sorry for blaming you for the accident. It was just so hard to take in, and I blamed it on you. It was the easiest thing I could do to ease the sorrow, for a while. Then Em and I were talking today and I just broke down. It felt so good to let it out and I realized that it wasn't your fault, not at all. So I'm sorry for acting like a jerk to you, I was being a stupid jerk. Friends?"
"Friends, Rose."
We got up and gave each other a hug while Alice awwwwwwwwed at us. She was also the first to ask the question that I knew was coming.
"Ok Bella, spill. I know you guys didn't just go out as friends, or at least that's not how it ended."
So I re-told them about the evening. They awwwed and ooooohed and laughed at the right places. These two are really my best friends.
"So did you two kiss?"
"No not yet, Alice."
"I mean come on! You guys declare your love to each other, go on a romantic date, and all you did was hold hands?"
"Yea, we will kiss when the time is right."
Then I swore I heard Rose mutter "That will be soon...""Guys I'm gonna go get ready for bed and say goodnight for Edward, then come back in here ok?"
"Mkay Bella!"
I got on my favorite PJ's,a midnight blue silk set with lounge pants and a camisole that wasn't too revealing. It was lined with black lace, and of course it was a gift from Alice.
I knocked on Edward's door and he came out with a t shirt and lounge pants on.
"I just came to say goodnight Edward."
"Goodnight love. And that shade of blue looks lovely with your skin tone."
I blushed really hard and he gave me a peck on the lips. It felt so good, so right to have his lips there. It's like his lips were made for mine. I gave him a hug then went back to Rose and Alice to tell them about my first kiss.
A/NOh you guys must love me right now! Yes in the eleventh chapter (I made you wait so long muhahahahaha!) They finally got together. And I realize that I haven't been real clear in the time line. Bella arrives at Forks on a Wednesday in December, the first one I think. Anyway the funeral is the following Sunday for Bella's parents is like on Sunday. Then like 3 weeks later (more like 2 and a half) Rose and Jazz's parents' funeral, which is also on a Sunday. The crazy fun mall like right after that. Then the Friday following the second funeral is this right now. I don't know when the funeral planning was just take a guess! Oh ya and the accident was like on a Thursday, the day after Bella gets there! I hope that clears things up! Oh and review! I want just five this time, since you guys couldn't handle ten!
