Damn it! I pounded my fists against the door frame of the Volvo, as she walked off and started the engine of her truck. How could I be so stupid! Here was my chance to come clean and explain myself but all I could muster was I don't know! I waited until I knew that she was a ways from the school before I started my car and headed home. I couldn't deal with anyone right now, I just needed some alone time to straighten out my thoughts. I made sure to take the long way home, just so I knew that I wouldn't be heading in the same direction as my Bella. When I finally pulled into the long gravel driveway, a jumped out of the car and stormed through the empty house to my room. I leaned my arms above my head on the large window that took up the back wall of my room, and rested my forehead on my arms. What had I gotten myself into? There I was just sitting in biology waiting for class to begin and the next thing I know I am kissing Bella. God, why did she have to be such a good kisser too! Her lips on mine just felt right, and then when her skin touched mine it was like a shock. She was amazing and I had ruined any chance of her being with her. Why couldn't I just tell her the truth that I really, really liked her; maybe even loved her? I stood there for awhile staring aimlessly out the window at the dark forest, until I felt like I couldn't do anything any longer. I pulled out the small black phone from my pocket,

"Information, how may I help you?" Asked a voice that sounded like it had rehearsed so much that it was a computer.

"I need the number for the Swan's residence."

"One moment please." And the phone went silent for a few minutes. "555-8763. Do you need anything else?"

"No, thank you. Goodbye." I hung up the phone quickly after writing down those seven precious numbers. I wasn't sure if I would even use the number but somehow I felt whole knowing that I had a way to communicate again with Bella, anytime I wanted. I lost track of time as I just held that paper thinking of her, when I felt my phone vibrate on the couch next to me. Lauren. Oh my God! I totally forgot about Lauren and how I was her ride. I was going to get it now.

"EDWARD! Where are you?! I come out of class and the car is gone! Did you expect me to walk home or something, because if you did you have another thing coming……" I held the phone away from my ear and was still able to her shrieks. Without putting another thought to it, I clicked the phone shut. I just couldn't deal with her right now. I heard the front door open and a parade of voice that traveled throughout the house, my family was home and for the first time in a long time I felt compelled to join them. But I didn't I just sat there staring at the piece of paper as my phone rang continuously with Lauren's name flashing across the screen. It wasn't until I heard a soft knock at the door that I looked up.

"Edward….are you all right? You left school early today, and I wasn't sure if you were feeling alright or not."

"I'm fine Alice." Alice turned again to leave but at that moment I needed someone who could understand me. "Alice? Could you come here for a minute?"

"Sure Edward, what's up?" She sat crossed leg on the floor in front of me.

"You know don't you…..that's why you invited her to sit with you at lunch today."

"Yeah, I guess you just got me curious about her, and how you could fall so hard so quickly for someone. She mentioned you today, just saying that you sit next to her biology but when she said it….I don't know, there was something in her eyes that said she felt something for you too."

"I did something today, and now I don't think she will ever talk to me again." I barely managed to say these words, they came out in a soft whisper but Alice still heard me.

"What? Did you introduce her Lauren? Cause that would do it." I gave her a look that said leave her out of this and Alice stopped her quiet chuckles.

"I…..I….kissed her. And I don't know but I felt something and I think she felt it too. But then I told her to leave me alone when she tried to confront her. God, Alice everything is so messed up and I have only known her for two days!"

"You know what you have to do Edward. You have to fix this, you have to confront her. And the sooner the better, then you need to breakup with Laure n and sweep Bella off her feet." Alice stood and started for the door before I could respond. "Her bedroom is on the right side of the house, just so you know." And she made her exit. She was right I needed to do something and I needed to do it before she really had time to realize how big of a jerk I had been. Alice poked her head in once more "Oh, and Edward mom and Dad have that fundraiser tonight at the hospital."

"Thanks Alice. And Alice, I'm sorry about everything."

"I know. Have a nice night Edward." And that was it. I knew what Alice had been hinting at do, but I just didn't know if I was brave enough to confront her, again.
