I ran down the stairs and sat down at the table with Renee, Charlie and Emmett to eat dinner.

"We are having people over for dinner tomorrow night" Renee said conversationally
"Who is coming over?" Emmett asked as he shoved about two table spoons of food in his mouth.
"Carlisle, Esme and Edward. Alice, Heather and Peter, Jasper, Rose, Jill and Sean" Charlie said.

I was too busy wondering how Emmett could fit so much food in his mouth, but when the words Charlie said sunk in, it hit me. Me, Alice, Jasper and Edward… in the same room… Together… I still hadn't told my parents about me and Jasper, and I didn't know how to tell them. They loved Jasper… And what would they think about me and Edward?

Edward and Jasper in the same room? This may not turn out so well… And they don't know about me and Alice not talking… I'm going to have to try being nice to her.

"Why are they all coming over?" I asked
"We haven't seen our friends in a while so we thought it would be a good idea to have dinner and catch up with everyone" My mother chimed.

My parents and Edwards parents had been best friends for years. They became really close friends with Rose and Jasper's parents when I started dating Jasper. They also became close friends with Alice's parents when she and I met. They were forever dropping us off at each other's houses and eventually they became good friends.

"Everything ok Bells?" Charlie asked looking at me carefully
"yeah everything is fine dad" I assured him
"You and Edward aren't still fighting are you?" He asked
Emmett was looking at me with a knowing look on his face, I glared at him. Making sure he kept his mouth shut, he shrugged then turned his attention back to his food.

"No, me and Edward aren't fighting anymore" We are only on the verge of being together, oh yeah I forgot to tell you, me and Jasper broke up and me and Alice aren't really talking anymore at the moment. I added mentally.

"I think it will be fun" Emmett laughed, mouth full of food, looking at me smugly
"Emmett, don't talk with your mouth full" Renee scolded pointing her fork in his direction
"Ok mum" Emmett said as he turned his eyes back to his food and closed his mouth while he chewed. I rolled my eyes at him.

The rest of dinner was quiet. I was too busy worrying about tomorrow night, and if I should tell my parents.. I tried several times to tell them but I couldn't find the guts to do it. God I'm such a bloody chicken.

After dinner I ran upstairs to have a quick shower and change into my pyjamas.

Edward would be here soon. I wonder if he heard about tomorrow night. Just then I heard a soft tap on the glass door, I flung it open and grabbed Edward by the collar on his t-shirt and dragged him inside.

"Did you hear about tomorrow night?" I asked
"Yeah I did... It's going to be weird" He replied
No shit it was going to be weird…
"Yeah I no. I haven't told my parents about Jasper yet. I don't know how to" I sighed
"Don't worry about it. Tell them when you're ready"

I smiled up at him and without thinking about it I wrapped my arms around his waist and rested my head against his chest. His arms found their way around my waist and pulled me closer to him. Screw the 'only friends' shit I couldn't fight the urge to hug him or touch him any longer. And being in his arms just felt so right.

"I don't know how much longer I can do this" I whispered into his chest.
I felt his shiver slightly at the feel of my breath rushing through his top and smiled to myself.
"Do what?" He asked
"Be friends with you" I replied
it was getting way to hard, how would I go at school when random girls decided to throw themselves at him and I couldn't do anything but sit and watch as they try to coax him into kissing them or something.
"I don't want to stay away from you anymore" He whispered against the top of my head
"Then don't" I replied, looking up at him

I gave him another smile as I moved my arms from around his waist up to his neck and pulled him down slightly. I couldn't help but let my eyes wander down to his soft pink lips, He smiled that crooked smile that made me melt, I could feel my breath catch in my throat as he slowly moved in closer to me, resting his face next to mine.
I felt his warm lips pressed gently on the side of my neck before he slowly moved his face back up to mine. His emerald green eyes getting lost in my brown eyes.

I started getting a bit impatient, I really wanted to kiss him, but I wanted him to make the first move. I nervously started biting my lower lip as he cupped my face with one of his hands and started to softly caress my cheek with his thumb. The feel of his skin on my left a cool tingly feeling, it felt nice.

He started leaning in further, closer to me. I couldn't help but smile. His lips lightly brushed against mine causing me to tighten the grip I had around his neck and pull him closer to me. I pushed my lips against his, I couldn't take waiting any longer.

His tongue softly ran across my bottom lip and I parted my lips allowing him entrance. I felt his tongue enter my mouth. He pulled me closer to him tightening his arms around my waist, and he started rubbing soothing circles on the lower of my back. My hands wandered up and into his messy bronze hair and I tangled my fingers in it. It was soft and smooth running between the gaps between my fingers.

Deciding that lying down would be more comfortable, I started walking backwards, not letting him out of my grip pulling him with me. I fell backwards on the bed, Edward landing on top of me, supporting his weight. His hand came up and found the side of my stomach as he gently massaged my skin.

I ran my hands down from his neck and over his shoulders so I could grip his biceps. I gave them a gentle squeeze and I could fell his muscles tense under my touch. They were allot bigger then they looked. He pulled away from me and a small, almost inaudible moan escaped my lips as he planted small kisses down my jaw to my neck. Allowing me to catch my breath.

I pulled at his hair and pushed my head back in ecstasy as he made his way over my collar bone.

He brought his lips back to mine crushing them together. I could do this forever and never get tired of this feeling. It was like small electric currents running through my body, not painful ones, it sort of felt nice.

*************************

The next morning I woke up with Edward next to me. We must have fallen asleep. His arm was draped over my stomach and his face was pressed into the side of my neck. I was lying on my back. It was a good thing I locked my bedroom door last night.

"Edward" I said as I lightly shook his shoulder

"Mmm" He groaned

"Come on, we have to get up" I whispered, giggling quietly

"Nooo I wanna stay in bed" He whined tightening his arm around me.

I smiled down at him, even though he couldn't see me.

"We need to go to school"

"Fuck school" He said snuggling closer into the crook of my neck

"It would seem weird if we both didn't show up for school" I laughed "Plus, your mum is probably wondering where you are"

He sighed as he rolled over onto his back and rubbed his eyes

"Fine, I'm up" He huffed

I gave him a quick kiss on the cheek before I jumped out of bed.

"Hey! That's not fair" He pouted, his arms outstretched towards me.

"Aww you poor baby" I laughed as I climbed on top of him giving him a hug.

"I'm not a baby" He whispered whined in my ear.

"Sure you aren't" I teased as I climbed off him again.

"I'm going to have a shower, so I guess I'll see you at school?" I asked

"Yeah see you at school" He replied.

He walked over to me and gave me a chaste kiss before leaving out my balcony door. I could get use to him sneaking in here at night.

I jumped in the shower and quickly cleaned myself then jumped back out and wrapped a towel around my body while I blow dried my hair, leaving it down and wavy. Once my hair was done I pulled on a pair of grey ¾ cargo pants, a long sleeve frilly white top and my black heels.

Then put on a bit of make up before dashing downstairs and jumping in Emmett's car… To my surprise he wasn't there yet, which was not like him at all. Usually Rose has him up and ready way before me.

I waited about 10 minutes before they both came running out of the house and jumped in the car.

"What took you guys so long?" I asked

"Umm… ahhh… Emmett wasn't ready" Rose stuttered

"Oh yeah?" I replied, laughing

I could hear Emmett snicker in the front seat as he pulled out of our driveway

"Yeah?" Rose said, more like a question then an answer.

"Have fun getting 'ready'" I chuckled

"Shut up Bella" Rose said, I could imagine her blushing a furious shade of red

"I'm glad you were quiet this time" I said thoughtfully as I remembered being woken up to a whole heap of banging and rather loud moaning. It was really disturbing.

"Oh trust me it was hard" Emmett said as he laughed… noisily.

Then I got the gist of what he meant by hard I felt like gagging.

"Emmett your fucken gross. I don't need to know that shit" I scoffed

Rose slapped him across his chest giving him a nasty looking glare.

I quietly laughed to myself at the look on Emmett's face. It was fun stirring up Rose; Emmett never gave a shit if anyone knew so he always joined, though I don't think it was for stirring reasons, just for the hell of talking about it.

*************************

"BELLA!" Claire screeched as I approached our lunch table

"Yeah Claire?" I laughed, taking my seat next to Jasper and Michael

"Nothing, just excited to see you" She smiled

"Umm... ok?"

"Don't worry, she has been acting weird all day" Michael whispered.

Michael had always had a thing for Claire. I thought she felt the same, but the other day when they were talking about Edward, I knew I was wrong. There was nothing wrong with Michael, he was cute. He was tall, had dark brown hair and dark blue eyes. He was rather toned as well, I would date him... If he looked at me like that. He was one of the guys that didn't seem appealed by me, as far as I no. And I liked that.

"Yeah it's like she is on happy drugs or something" Tyler added chuckling under his breath.

"Well, whatever she is on I want some" Rose added.

"What are you so happy about Claire?" Sharleen asked

"Nothing" She sung, her eyes dancing between everyone on the table

"Claire?" I said

"Yup"

"Why are you so happy? What happened?" I asked

"Well... Seeing as you all know that I have a thing for Edward..." She trailed off looking around the room to make sure he wasn't around.

"I think he liked me too" She whispered with a huge grin on her face.

I could feel my face heating up, Jasper's eyes darted across to me with a worried expression on his face. He grabbed my hand and held it lightly under the table.

"Oh that's great Claire" Sharleen squealed

"I no.. Right!" Claire giggled

"What makes you think that?" Jasper asked.

"Well, he was looking at me today. His eyes were smouldering me and he had the cutest grin I had ever seen"

I felt like slapping her across the face. He was looking at her? What the hell? No that has to be wrong... why would he be looking at her? Maybe she took it the wrong way.

"Are you sure you didn't misinterpret it?" I asked through clenched teeth. Lucky she was too excited to see the anger on my face.

"No, I could never mistake that look on his face. He was looking at me like he had never looked at any other girl in this school" She beamed.

"Sooo dinner at your house tonight Bella" Alice said as she danced over to our table

"Yes" I was about to pounce on Claire. There was no way Edward was looking at her like that.

"You know, maybe we should... work this out between us.. This little issue we have so that tonight isn't going to be too awkward" Alice said, looking at me carefully.

"Can we talk about it later?" I asked

She nodded her head slowly still looking at my carefully "Are you ok?" She asked

I saw Jasper looking at her, slightly shaking his head. Alice looked between me and Jasper before grabbing my hand and pulling me out of the cafeteria. I didn't say anything, I didn't even protest. I was happy she was dragging me out before I punched that bitch in the nose. Sure she was my friend and she didn't know anything that was going on between me and Edward. I still couldn't help getting angry though.

"Bella" Alice said, placing her hands on my shoulders "What's wrong?" She asked

"She.... He..." I said shaking my head. I couldn't even form proper words

"Deep breath Bells" She started breathing in through her nose and out through her mouth

I took a few deep breaths before I calmed down enough to speak properly.

"Now, tell me what's wrong"

"Claire" I sighed

"What about Claire?"

"Well... Me and Edward have been... Well we are sort of working our way into a relationship. Being friends and stuff ya know. I like him and he likes me"

She nodded her head and had a big smile on her face. I could tell she was holding back a squeal.

"Anyway, the other day I found out Claire had feelings for him" Her smile turned into a frown

"I didn't tell her anything.. Because, well nothing is going on yet. She was really happy about something before at lunch and Sharleen coaxed it out of her. Apparently Edward was staring at her with a look she had never seen him give any other girl at the school" I continued, mimicking what she had said just 5minutes ago.

"Oh Bella" Alice said shaking her head

"What do I do?" I said feeling defeated.

"Talk to him. I'm sure there was some misunderstanding. Where is he anyway?"

"He was talking to a teacher the last time I saw him. He said he would be later to lunch"

"Go find him. Talk to him"

I nodded my head biting my lip and turned back towards the cafeteria doors. I pushed them open, surely enough Edward was already sitting down chatting with Michael. Claire was staring at him all googly eyed.

I walked over and sat down next to him, he smiled at me and took my hand under the table giving it a gentle squeeze. Claire was looking at me confused. Hell maybe we should just tell them, get it over and done with, stop Claire from making assumptions.

"What time are you guys coming over tonight?" I asked Alice and Jasper

"My parents and I will be there at about 6" Alice replied.

"Yeah, I'll be there at around the same time. Have you told your parents yet?" Jasper asked

"No" I said sucking on my bottom lip "Have you told yours?"

"Not yet, but maybe we should?"

"I don't no. I'm scared" I admitted

He laughed "So am I. My parents threatened to murder me if I ever lost you"

"Maybe we can just tell them tonight? Together"

"Yeah we can do that" He agreed.

"What about you Edward? What time will you be coming over?"

"When ever you want me to come over" He replied, smirking at me.

Claire's eyes were dating between us, her cheeks turning red.

"How about... at 5?" I asked

"Sounds good to me"

"What's going on" Claire hissed

Edwards head snapped in her direction and he furrowed his brows

"What do you mean?"

"You and Bella.. What's going on there?" She asked through clenched teeth

"Maybe we should just tell them?" I whispered to Edward

He looked at me and gave me a slight nod

"Umm well me and Edward are...." I trailed of thinking of the best way to put it. I didn't really know what we were... We were trying to be friends, but obviously that failed last night

"We are together" Edward finished for me. His eyes were sparkling and he had that crooked smile on his face that I loved so much.

Claire looked like she was about to explode "WHAT?" She screamed "But I saw you staring at me today Edward.. What.. How... wh – "

"Staring at you?" He asked, sounding confused.

"Yeah, when I was going into English you were in the room next to mine and you were staring me"

"No" He said shaking his head "I was staring at the person behind you" He said looking at me.

"Bella is in that same class as you. I was staring at Bella. She was standing right behind you"

"Whoa guys when did this happen?" Michael said, cutting in

"Well, it sort of began the night of the party. We didn't get together then he was just there for me after what happened between me and Jasper. Then it sort of went from there. It wasn't until last night that things really started to happen" I said, with a smile on my face

"Wow. This is awesome guys!" Natalie said "I always thought you two would make a cute couple"

"Natalie" Claire said looking at her sadly.

"Sorry, but it's true. I know you like him" Natalie said lightly rubbing her back.

"You're supposed to be my friend" Claire whispered to me

"I didn't know until the other day when Sharleen was telling us what you asked him. Me and Edward, we had already started something then." I said, looking at her apologetically.

EPOV

"Edward" Bella whispered, shaking me softly

"Mmm"

"Come on, we have to get up" She whispered

"Nooo I wanna stay in bed" I whined tightening my arms around her

"We need to go to school"

"Fuck school" I said, pulling myself closer, nudging my head in the crook of her neck Mmm she smells so good

"It would seem weird if we both didn't show up for school" She laughed "Plus, your mum is probably wondering where you are"

All I wanted was to stay in bed and cuddle up with her and forget about the fucken world for one day. Have it be just me and her. No drama, no school, no parents, no nothing

"Fine, I'm up"

She gave me a quick kiss and jumped off the bed before I had the chance to deepen it.

"Hey! That's not fair" I pouted stretching my arms out to her

"Aww you poor baby" She laughed

She climbed back on the bed and wrapped her arms around me.

"I'm not a baby" I whispered

"Sure you aren't" She teased

"I'm going to have a shower, so I guess I'll see you at school?" I'll join you.

The mental image of showering with Bella was a real turn on, her wet body slipping up next to mine, water dripping from her hair onto her firm, perky brea....Stop! I shook those thoughts away.

"Yeah see you at school" I replied.

I gave her a quick kiss before walking outside into the chilly morning breeze. This is a stupid thing to be doing while I'm still half asleep. I crawled across the ladder, extra slow making sure I didn't fall or slip. I would like to live through the rest of today

*************************

School was a drag and was going slow. When I was going into History, Bella's class was next to mine. I couldn't help but stare. Fuck anyone who notices, I could care less right now. I sighed. I wish I could hold her. God, your turning into such a fucken pansy.

The teacher held me back to discuss something, I caught Bella on her way to lunch and told her I wouldn't be long. I didn't really listen to the teacher babble on, I stared at the black board behind him and nodded my head every now and then.

Once he had finished I ran to lunch, Bella was talking to Alice outside, probably working out their differences. I decided to leave them talk and made my way inside. I sat down at the table and noticed Claire looking at me weirdly... Maybe she didn't get the point when I told her I wasn't interested?

Bella sat down next to me, I smiled at her as I continued to talk Michael and took her hand in mine under the table giving it a light squeeze.

"What time are you guys coming over tonight?" Bella asked Alice and Jasper.

I had forgotten all about the dinner tonight... Maybe now that her and Alice have made up it won't be as awkward

"My parents and I will be there at about 6" Alice replied.

"Yeah, I'll be there at around the same time. Have you told your parents yet?" Jasper asked

"No" I watched as she sucked on her bottom lip, god it was hot "Have you told yours?"

"Not yet, but maybe we should?"

"I don't no. I'm scared"

He laughed "So am I. My parents threatened to murder me if I ever lost you"

Well, he is kind of stupid for losing her. Not that it was his choice or anything...

"Maybe we can just tell them tonight? Together" She suggested

"Yeah we can do that" He agreed.

"What about you Edward? What time will you be coming over?" She asked, looking up at me through her lashes.

"When ever you want me to come over" I replied, smirking at her.

"How about... at 5?" The blush that crept up on her cheeks was beautiful. Yep, definitely a pussy

"Sounds good to me" I smiled

"What's going on" Claire hissed

I turned my head in her direction, furrowing my brows at her. She really didn't get it!

"What do you mean?" I asked

"You and Bella.. What's going on there?" She asked through clenched teeth

"Maybe we should just tell them?" Bella whispered to me

I looked at her and gave her a slight nod. I would have told everyone a long time ago if it wasn't for her. I was glad that everyone would finally no. The main people knew like Rose, Emmett, Jasper and Alice. But the others didn't and I wanted Claire to know that I was not interested in her that way.

"Umm well me and Edward are...." She trailed off, looking hard in thought

"We are together" I finished for her. Why the hell not? If we are telling them may as well make it official. We both wanted it

"WHAT?" Claire screamed, loud enough to interrupt the noisy chattering going on in the cafeteria "But I saw you staring at me today Edward.. What.. how... wh – "

"Staring at you?" What the hell? When was I staring at her, the only person I was staring at today was Bel-

"Yeah, when I was going into English you were in the room next to mine and you were staring me"

"No" I scoffed, she thought I was staring at her? "I was staring at the person behind you" I said, looking at Bella.

"Bella is in that same class as you. I was staring at Bella. She was standing right behind you"

"Whoa guys when did this happen?" Michael said, cutting in

"Well, it sort of began the night of the party. We didn't get together then he was just there for me after what happened between me and Jasper. Then it sort of went from there. It wasn't until last night that things really started to happen" Bella said with a big smile on her face.

"Wow. This is awesome guys!" Natalie said "I always thought you two would make a cute couple"

Well at least not everyone hates us.. or me... or Bella... Just Claire.

"Natalie" Claire said looking at her sadly.

"Sorry, but it's true. I know you like him"

"You're supposed to be my friend" Claire whispered to me

"I didn't know until the other day when Sharleen was telling us what you asked him. Me and Edward, we had already started something then." Bella said looking at her apologetically.

Claire didn't look like she really appreciated that. I leaned down and gave Bella a long kiss on the cheek just before the bell rang.

"I'll see you later?" I asked as I pulled her out of her seat

"Yeah, see you later" She smiled

I pulled her in for a hug and held her close to me

"I'll see you guys later too" I said to Alice and Jasper as I rested my chin on Bella's head

Jasper gave me a curt nod and walked out of the cafeteria. Alice gave me a smile and lightly rubbed Bella's back before following close behind Jasper.

"I guess we better go" Bella said pulling away from me.

"yeah I guess we better" I said smiling down at her.

"I will see you after school" She gave me a soft kiss on the cheek before leaving the cafeteria. I watched as she walked out, grinning from ear to ear. It was a load off of me now that everyone new, and Claire wasn't making assumptions, she couldn't make assumptions, I was taken, very much taken by the most beautiful girl in the whole school... no scratch that, the most beautiful girl in the whole world.

*************************

"Mum I'm going next door. I'll see you when you get there" I yelled to my mother as I walked out the front door.

Screw climbing over a fucken ladder. I would only have to explain why I am there and how I got in the house without using the front door. That I would like to avoid.

"Alright honey, we will be over soon"

Bella's mum answered the door once I got there, I always thought she was a nice person. She was caring, real motherly like my mum. And She looked so much like Bella, except for the hair. That she got off her dad.

"Hey Renee, Bella in?" I asked sweetly giving her a smile

"Oh hi Edward... Ahh yeah she is up in her room. I'll call her down"

"No, that's ok. I'll just go up and see her" I said as I walked past her

"Umm o-k"

I laughed on my way up to Bella's room. Renee seemed so confused, I thought it was funny. Wait till she finds out what's going on tonight. That should be entertaining.

"Bella?" I said as I opened her door

"EDWARD" She squealed as she jumped into my arms, wrapping her legs around my waist

"Hello to you too" I laughed, wrapping my arms around her waist making sure she didn't fall butt first on the ground

"Hi" She breathed as she snuggled her neck in the crook of my neck "I missed you" She whispered

"I missed you too"

It's funny how everything has happened... I mean we haven't been together all that long, and look at us. It had only been about 3-4hours since we last saw each other, and here she is jumping into my arms. Normally people are nervous when they first get together.

"So what do you want to do while we wait?" She said as she hoped down.

"I could think of a few things" I winked at her.

She giggled and slapped my arm "We are not doing that mister"

"I know, I was joking"

Not Really, Was so, Was not, I was now shut up. WE all know you weren't. I know for a fact that I was.

"Edward?" Bella said, interrupting the argument I was having with the voice inside my head.

"Mmmm"

"What are you doing?" She said grinning at me

"Nothin"

I sat down on her bed, she raised her eyebrow at me then disappeared into her closet.

"Bella, your phone is ringing" I said as I watched the light on her screen flash

"Can you answer it" She called

I picked up her phone Alice

"Sally's sex shop sally speaking" I sad in a girly voice, trying to contain my laughing

I could hear Bella giggling in her closet

"I... Umm... I think I have the wrong number" Alice replied

"Alice, It's Edward you twit"

"Don't do that! You freaked me out"

"I thought it was funny" I laughed. Really, it was funny.

"Whatever. What are you guys doing... and.. Didn't I call Bella's phone?"

"Yeah you did. Bella has disappeared into her closet" I sighed

"Right, looking for something to wear?"

"Ye-"

"I'm thinking about coming over now. Is that alright with you?" She said cutting me off.

"I'll ask Bel-"

"Great I'll be over soon" She sang then hung up.

I stared at Bella's phone. Fuck she is weird. Why did she even bother calling to ask if she wasn't going to let me answer?

"Bella, Alice is coming over" I said as I put her phone back on the bedside table

"Oh good, I need help choosing something to wear" She said as she immerged from her closet holding two different dresses. A contort look on her face.

"I take it you and Alice are BFF's again?"

"Well.. We didn't really talk about what happened... But I can't stay mad at her forever" She sighed

"I'm glad you two are friends again" I said smiling at her

"Me two" She replied as she fell on her bed.

"Hello Edward" Emmett said as he entered Bella's room

"Emmett" I replied looking at him.

He looked different... his face looked serious. This is unusual for him.

"We need to talk" He said as he crossed his arms over his chest

"Umm ok?"

"You and Bella" Oh so this is what it was about

"Em, please don't start" Bella whined

"It's gotta be done Bells"

"Arrggg" She through her pillow over her head and laid flat on her back.

"It's ok Bella" I said as I rubbed her hand

"If you're going to be with my sister, there are a few things I need to get straight with you" Emmett said, ignoring his sisters whining.

"Sure, lay it out"

"If you hurt so much as a hair on her head I will hang you, I don't care if your my mate, but she is my baby sister. Is that clear?" He asked

"Crystal" I replied, smiling at him

"This is not to affect any time that you and me spend together, I won't have it coming between our friendship either"

"Not that we spend that much time together, but ok" I replied sarcastically

"Football Edward, it's starting up soon. Don't be distracted."

"Fine!"

"And you need to stop your player ways."

"I had already decided a long time ago that I would. Are we done yet?"

"He looked at me for a moment before grinning at me "Yep, we are"

"Good"

"See you kids at dinner" He said walking out of her room and closing the door behind him.

"I'm sorry" Bella said pulling the pillow away from her face.

"Don't be sorry. He just loves you"

"I know, but it's embarrassing" She sighed
