There standing in my door way was a tall, very tan guy. Jacob leaned casually against the doorway with his hands in his pockets. I was stunned and a little angry that he was there listening in on my personal conversation with Edward. How much had he heard? Would he tell Charlie? And if he did what would Charlie do?
"Why would I lie about something like that? And you have no right to be up here." I said, standing up and crossing my arms across my chest. Jacob pushed himself off the doorway and walked into my room, and since my room wasn't that large, two steps in and he was already only a few feet from where I stood.
"Charlie sent me up to come and get you. Apparently I am supposed to talk some sense into you." He chuckled a little at this, and I wondered where anyone would get the nerve to say that.
"Look you have no reason to be up here so I suggest you turn around and go back downstairs where you are wanted." I was starting to get really angry with this creep; I mean who did he think he was ordering me around like I was a five year old.
"I hope I am not interrupting something." I looked up to see a small pixie like girl standing in my doorway.
"Oh, Alice!" I pushed past Jacob and grabbed Alice from the doorway into the middle of the room. "What are you doing here?" I asked, not that I wasn't very excited to see her.
"You have forgotten already? You promised to help me on my history paper this afternoon." Alice said giving me a small wink. Edward. Was he really that worried that I would do something to hurt him? I thought about just flirting with Jacob to get back at Edward for sending Alice…but then again I was really happy that Alice had shown up when she did, because if she had been a minute later I probably would have hit Jacob and been grounded all over again.
"Oh yeah, how could I forget. Well Jacob if you will excuse us, we have to school work to do." For the first few seconds it was like he didn't hear me, and then he reluctantly turned around leaving my room and storming down the stairs. "Thanks Alice, you are a life saver." I sighed falling back on my bed and Alice took a seat next to me.
"Well Edward said you were in distress so I thought that I would come over and help you out. But we should probably put out some books to make it look like we are studying…..Bella? Are you alright?" Alice asked after awhile of me lying with my eyes shut. I was just trying to get over my anger towards Charlie, Jacob, and Edward. I mean couldn't they just trust me when I said I was happy and alright!
"I'm fine, just a bit aggravated with the male population of Forks." I sighed sitting up and turning towards Alice.
"He did not because he doesn't rust you but because he is crazy in love with you." Alice giggled as I turned to a new shade of red. We sat there for hours talking about everything, from her family to her favorite past time, shopping. It was great to have someone to talk to, back in phoenix I had my mom but here Charlie wasn't one for talking so it was good to know that I always had Alice. "Well it's getting late and I don't want to be grounded like our dear Edward, so I will see you at school tomorrow." Alice got to the door before turning around, "Oh and don't be too hard on the boy tomorrow, he just did it cause he cares."
I got to school early the next day hoping that I could talk to Edward before class, but he wasn't there yet so I took a seat on the picnic benches and got out my copy of Pride and Prejudice. I was starting to get into the book when I heard footsteps approaching and the sweet velvet voice of my Edward.
"Hey there beautiful." He said while placing a soft kiss on my lips.
"I like those hellos." I giggled when I noticed that he still had one hand behind his back holding something. "What do you have there behind your back?" I asked and he brought his hand around to reveal the prettiest arrangement of blue daisies. "Oh Edwards they are beautiful!" I shouted as I threw many arms around his neck and kissing him with all the passion I could.
"If I knew that was going to happen then I would bring you flowers every day." He chuckled, "Well we better get to class before we are late." He grabbed my hand leading me into the building, when we passed through the doors however Lauren came up on the other side of me knocking the flowers from my hand.
"Oops. Sorry slut." Said Lauren and her laughing gang of friends as she passed. I bent down to pick up the flowers that had scattered across the floor, when I heard it.
"What is your problem Lauren?" I looked up to see Edward in Laruen face, as she backed into the lockers in fear.
"I…I…I said I was sorry." She stammered. But Edward still wouldn't back down. I finished gathering the flowers and walked over to Edward grabbing his arm.
"Come on Edward, she isn't worth it." I pulled him towards class and he followed reluctantly.
"Stay away from her Laruen. I mean it." Edward added before we got too far down the hall. He was still fuming when we reached the door to my first class. I didn't want to go in, and leave him while he was still raging. So I took his hand in my and began rubbing calming circles on the back of his hand. After a couple of deep breath later Edward finally looked up to meet my gaze. "Let's get out of here." I just stared at him for a minute before nodding my head.
"Yeah, let's go." He pulled me towards the back exit and out into the parking lot and into the shiny silver Volvo.
SORRY IT TOOK SO LONG TO UPDATE, I HAVE BEEN VERY BUSY WITH SCHOOL WORK AND SUCH. I HOPE TO HAVE THE NEXT CHAPTER OUT WITHIN A FEW DAYS. SO REMEMBER TO REVIEW. THANKS WISH-ELEVEN.
