Chapter 3

Bella's POV

I had survived with Edward for a week and didn't hate him as much. He was actually quite interesting.

"Bella, can you help me with this?" Edward asked coming in to my room.

"Yeah," I said moving my books to make room for him to sit down.

"We don't have chemistry in Britain," he explained and I nodded.

"Chemistry was never my strong point…." I said and looked at the problem.

"Okay, um…. I'm sorry, I don't know," I said and he nodded and got up. I looked back at my books and watched him walk away. I grabbed my bag and got a pen out and began doing English homework. I couldn't focus on the homework so I grabbed my Ipod and began listening to Every time we touch by Cascada.

"Bella, it's 11:30, time for bed," my mom said coming in and I nodded and turned my light off and went to sleep.

I woke up the next morning and tied my hair in a messy ponytail; I grabbed a pair of jeans and a red top and ran downstairs to eat breakfast. I found Edward already eating some cereal and talking with my mom.

"Really? It's good you may get a girlfriend," I heard my mom say and for some reason this made me mad.

"WHO?" I demanded sitting next to him and I instantly got a weird look from both my mom and Edward; it was no secret of my dislike for Edward, "not that I care," I quickly added.

"That nice young lady sitting across from you yesterday at lunch," Edward said and I sighed.

"Jessica? You do not want to get mixed up with Jessica!" I said and he nodded.

"Well, who are you dating?" he asked and I sighed.

"At the moment no one, but I might start dating someone," I said and my mom looked up.

"Invite him over for dinner tonight," my mom said to me then looked at Edward, "Invite Jessica over,"

"We gotta go, mom. Can I take the car?" I asked and she reluctantly nodded and handed me the keys.

"Be careful," she said and I hugged her and she kissed me on the cheek.

"Ready?" I asked Edward and he nodded and grabbed his bag.

"So who's this guy you might start dating?" Edward asked once we were at school.

"His name's Mason! He started going here last week, he asked me out yesterday! So I'm going to tell him I do want to be his girlfriend," I said and saw Mason standing by my locker waiting for me.

"Bye Bella," Edward said and went off in another direction.

"Mason," I said and hugged him.

"Hi Bella, have you thought about my question?"

"Yes," I said and he smiled,

"Great!" he said and wrapped his arm around me.

"You wanna come over for dinner tonight?" I asked and he nodded.

"Sure," he said and I smiled and kissed him on the cheek.

"You can ride with us after school," I said and he nodded, "bye," I said and headed to my first class.

At lunch I saw Edward sitting next to Jessica and she was blushing like crazy.

"Jessica," I said and she looked up and then scooted away from Edward, "what's going on?" I asked and Edward grabbed Jessica's hand.

"I told you I was going to ask her out," Edward said coldly and I sighed.

"Edward, may I talk to you over there," I asked and he nodded and got up but not before touching Jessica's cheek.

"CULLEN!" I heard Mike yell and I rolled my eyes.

"This is why I didn't want you getting with Jessica, Mike is, like, in love with her!" I said and he shrugged.

"Well, she's with me," he said and I stood next to him and watched Mike walk over to us.

"Stay away from my girl," he said acting tough in front of Edward.

"Mike, you should have just asked her if you wanted to date her!" I said and he didn't acknowledge what I said, he didn't even know I was there.

"I didn't see a stamp on her that said property of an idiot," Edward said and Mike stepped closer to Edward, I stepped in between them and put my hands on both of their chests.

"Stop it," I said and Edward grabbed my arm and put me behind him.

"Hey!" I heard Mason call and I sighed.

"Mason, it's okay," I said putting my hand on his shoulder.

"No, it's not," he said and turned Edward around, "no one pushes my girl around."

"Mason, stop it! Edward is a friend," I said looked up into Mason's brown eyes.

"Fine," Mason said and walked off.

"Mike, go away," I said when I saw Mike was ready to fight Edward. Mike walked away mad and Edward walked back to Jessica.

"You were going to fight for me?" Jessica asked and Edward nodded.

"Of course, love," he said and for a split second I wish I could switch places with Jessica.
