Chapter 8 - jealousy!
B POV
* "you have absolutely NO idea how much love your worth, your the most beautiful, love-worthy person i've ever met." *
I sat there, not nessisarily in shock, more so in disbelief. I couldn't find my voice to speak, or my muscles to move. I was frozen, but unlike when jacob said he loved me, this was a good type of shock, one that brought on a wave of happiness. It took me a couple of seconds to realize that he might like me, although i still don't know why he would, he was so perfect, everything about him was perfect, he simply didn't have any faults. Me on the other hand, i had more faults than anything else, i was clumsy, sensitive, and totally and utterly plain. He could have any girl at this party.. and here he is, sitting next to me. Why was he doing this to me? there's no way he'd want me!
He was looking down at the ground, as if he were ashamed and after a few moments he must've realized that i couldn't speak because he slowly lifted his head. He face was a face of an angel, not one imperfection. As soon as i saw his face, i was even more speechless, which i thought was hardly possible. Somehow i managed to move my muscles and in that instant i gently planted my lips on his, as i did so and pleasurable electric jolt went through my body. Kissing Edward was like nothing else, the only thing to even come close to describing was a lunar eclipse, to magnificent for words and totally breathtaking.
He placed his hands gently on my waist and pushed him lips into mine. Whilst pulling me closer her wrapped his arms around me and pulled me against his chest. He pulled his lips an away but left them an inch away from mine and then decided he wanted more. Carefully but passionately, he placed his lips back on mine, and then it was just us again, nothing else in the world existed. Edward and i both reluctantly pulled away at the same time, needing breath. He leaned his forehead against mine and gave a crooked smile. Seeing him happy made me happy, it felt like everything was perfect, so i smiled back.
Twisting around so that my back was to him, he pulled me by the waist against his chest so that i was leaning against him with his hands resting on my stomach. We dat there for a few minutes until three, slim, beautiful girls walked up to us. "Hey, we were just wondering if we could have your number?" the obvious leader asked politely. "I'm sorry, but i have a girlfriend" Edward said just as politely, and then the girls walked away. Just at that moment i snapped around staring at Edward in shock. All he did was shake his head, and then i was just confused so i asked. "You have a girlfriend?" i waited for his answer, knowing i was stupid for kissing him. Of course someone so perfect would have a girlfriend. "nope" he said " I'm just not interested in them, i have my eye on someone else"
I tried to get up, but half way of getting off the chair he pulled me back against him. Although i didn't want to be so close to him while he had his 'eye' on someone, it was a relief to be touching him, nothing else seemed to matter when i was with him. "you silly" he said, and i sat there frozen. "me what?" i asked, clearly in a confusing tone. He kissed me on my forehead and smiled. "its you i have my eye on, i love you" Before i had time to response, or register what he'd said in my head, he flipped me around and kissed me again. It was at that moment that i realized i loved him too. I kissed him back and finally replied "i love you too" in that moment he swiftly got up, and i started falling down until he caught me and pulled me up until i was standing up too. Once again he pulled me tightly into his chest and put his hand softly against my cheek and gave his crooked smile again. "Would you like to dance ma'am?" he asked. "only with you" i said, leaning my head into his chest.
Walking to the dance floor, he twirled me around so that i was hard up against his chest. He placed his left hand on the small of my back and picked me up so that i was standing on his toes. Somehow he must've known i couldn't dance. I smiled at the thought of me dancing,but thankfully he managed to dance around the dance floor quite gracefully, and i was grateful for the fact that he wouldn't have to know how clumsy i was. He leaned over and kissed me, and as i was kissing him back i heard someone clear their throat. It was familiar, but i couldn't quite figure out who it was, so i pulled away to look. It was Jacob.
Right then i felt guilty. He'd said he loved me, and what did i do? i go and kiss someone where he can see. I knew Edward had seen the guilt in my eyes. "I don't mean to be rude, but do you have a problem?" Edward asked. "as a matter of fact, i do" Jacob replied, sounding quite rude really. "Oh, well. you can't please everyone" Edward said, disregarding his comment. What Jacob said rather annoyed me, and shocked me too. " I'd very much appreciate it if you'd leave Bella the fuck alone. It'd save me having to have to fight you." How dare he tell Edward to leave me alone! Isn't it up to me who i hang around? "I'm afraid i can't do that" Edward replied in the most beautiful voice i've ever heard. Jacob started walking to the door, and i thought then that it was all over, until he spoke again. "well then i guess we have some business to attend to outside then, don't we?"
