They were over. He wanted me. But why? I mean Lauren was prettier than me, and a lot more popular. But I pushed all these things from my mind for the moment as I leaned in a planted a soft kiss to his lips. I pulled back slowly looking up to his eyes to gauge his reaction; he looked down at me with a smile in his eyes that could light up a room.
"You know, I am beginning to like biology more and more." He whispered, his cool breath tickling my face. He began to back up some putting a few more feet in between us just as the bell sounded, but his hand only moved from my waist to my hand as we took our seats. Nobody paid much attention to us, and even if they had I don't think either of us would have notice because we were too busy in our own little world to deal with others. Mr. Banner wheeled in a TV. , and turned off the lights.
"Try to pay attention, and if you are really feeling up to it take some notes because this may or may not be on the next test." Said Mr. Banner as he pressed play then took his seat behind his desk to grade papers. Meanwhile, Edward had begun drawling small circles on the back of my hand which in turn was sending goose bumps down my arm. There was no way I was going to be paying attention to this movie, so I opened my notebook that was sitting on the table and began to scribble a note to Edward.
So you and Lauren are for sure over? No miscommunication on either end?
I am positive. And are you cold because I have my jacket if you need it. Crap he noticed my goose bumps, but how to tell him I am not cold just being driven crazy by his touch without embarrassing myself totally. I sat there for a minute contemplating it and decided to avoid humiliation.
Sure, it is kind of cold in here. He bent down and grabbed a light grey zip up hoodie from his backpack. I slipped my arms through the sleeves reluctantly dropping his hand for a moment. The jacket was a little big but smelled like him, so it was perfect.
Better?
Much. We continued the conversation for the rest of the class period, talking about little things like favorite color, vacation spot, and movies. But it was bliss. Edward walked me to gym, but when we reached the locker rooms' door he still wouldn't drop my hand.
"Would you like to come over today afternoon?" He spoke very fast and it was a miracle that I even understood what he said. It was cute, he was nervous.
"I would love to but I promised my friend Alice that I would have a sleepover with her tonight. Sorry, maybe we could hang out tomorrow afternoon." I felt really bad because he had been so nervous in the first place when he asked. But I saw a small mischievous smile play across his lips. "What?"
"Nothing, well we better get into class. Till next time." He ran the back of his down my cheek before placing a light kiss on it and turning away. Some times that boy could be so hard to read.
I didn't see Edward after school and that bothered me, but I didn't have time to worry I had told Alice I would be at her house by 4:30. By the time I grabbed my things from my room and finally found her driveway turnoff it was nearing 5:00. Oops. I pulled up to the biggest house that I had ever seen, and sitting on the front porch was an anxious Alice,
"I'm so sorry that I am late! I couldn't find the turn off for your driveway."
"It's okay; it just gave me more time to set up. Come on, I want you to see my room." She grabbed my arm dragging me through the large white doors and up the grand staircase. We paused outside the first door on the hall. "Okay, are you ready?" I nodded my head and she opened the door to reveal the most extravagant room ever. It was decorated with flowers and pink wall paper and led to the largest closet that I had ever seen filled to capacity with clothes.
"Alice! Can you come down here for a minute?" Shouted someone from the bottom of the stairs.
"Be right there! Make yourself at home, I will be right back." I placed my bag on the floor and walked around the room taking in all the beautiful things that Alice owned. I was about halfway around the room when I heard a loud thud coming from upstairs. Of course curiosity got the better of me so I made my way to the staircase and up to the third story. When I reached the top of the stairs I heard the thud again, and figured out it was coming from the room at the end of the hall. The door was slightly cracked so I peaked in, seeing a tennis ball bouncing against the floor making the thud noise. I was getting ready to turn around and head back to Alice's room when the door to the room suddenly opened.
"Hey. This room is taken but I am more than willing to share, if you want." A large smile played across his face as he laughed.
"Edward?"
