I hope you are enjoying this story, still not sure where it will take us. Don't you love Edward? How many of us could care less if we were dragged into a pool with his arms around us? Not this girl…me first! Anyway, I am still very new to this writing thing. And of course, none of the characters or anything to do with the "Twilight Saga" belongs to me but my heart.

Chapter 4

"Well little missy, I think our boy Edward has taken a liking to you?" Alice said. My brain went into a flurry of thoughts (OCD brain), 1. Could he like me? 2. He is just being polite. 3. Oh my God he is H-O-T! Bella?" I heard a voice call out to me. "Are you alright? Are you hurt?"

"Uh what?" I said as I looked up and found the most perfect man looking down at me. His brow was furrowed and you could see veins that formed a "V" in the middle of his forehead.

"Sweetheart, are you okay?" He said again as he kneeled down in front of me. He placed 2 mugs of what I was assuming were hot chocolates. I felt two hands cradle my cheeks. Okay Bella…wake up. Get out of your dreamland, before they think you are Looney tunes.

"Oh sorry, I'm fine. Just caught in a daydream." I said. I could feel his thumbs stroke my cheeks. I finally directed my attention to him.

"Sorry Edward…I, uh…" I was at a loss for words. "Did you bring us hot chocolate?" I said desperately trying to change the subject. "Oh yes Bella I did, but let's get you inside before you freeze to death. Okay?" He said as he smiled and stood up extending his hand to help me. I noticed his undershirt was still soaked and clung to him beautifully. This man was perfect. He isn't bulky or lumpy. His chest was chiseled to perfection. The Gods must love this man. I heard him snicker.

"Come on my little daydreamer, let's go inside." I blushed and followed him into the house. Because as long as this man held my hand he could lead me anywhere. Isn't there a song like that? "I will follow him…follow him wherever he may go…There isn't an ocean to…"

"Bella, you are worrying me. Did you bump your head?" He said as he again brushed my bangs out of my eyes.

"Oh I'm sorry Edward. This…" I pointed all around me. "Is a little intimidating surrounded by all of you movie stars."

"Bella that is silly, you have nothing to be intimidated by; have I scared you at all." He said as he made me melt into a puddle of goo.

"No…I have something to tell you; and it's really embarrassing." He looked at me with his brow all scrunchy. I put my fingers to his forehead to smooth out the worried look. I swear he sighed when I touched him.

"Oh no never mind I can't tell you; you will run away screaming. It is no big deal." I said hoping he would let it lie.

Of course not.

"Bella, whatever it is I promise I will not run away screaming. Whatever it is, I am sure it isn't a big deal. So tell me." He said as he placed his very sexy hand over mine that was in my lap. You are not making this any easier Edward, I thought to myself.

"Okay…but please know this is not the reason I am here." He nodded and smiled at me.

"I…I…this is so embarrassing. Edward I am a huge fan of yours." I covered my now blood-red face with my hands, no make that my trembling hands.

I heard him snicker. "Love, is that it?" He said with a huge smile. I nodded my covered face and said, "Yes".

I felt his hands try to pull my hands off my face. "Bella…look at me." I said "No."

"Please." I let him bring my hands down from my face. I sighed.

"That is okay…actually I was quite anxious to meet you. Your brother is very proud of you. We had a little Bella dissertation read to us; and it was complete with pictures." Cue the blood to my face.

"What the…" I said as I started to stand up…but he put a hold on me to stay seated.

"I'm kidding Bella; but he did show us pictures of you. And warned us that if any of us "fuckers" messed with you he would kill us."

"Are you kidding me?" This time I did stand. Scanning the crowd looking for my "soon-to-be-bruised-brother". I found him and he made eye contact with me and waved. I pointed at him to "come here" as I mouthed "NOW". He lowered his head and reached for Alice's hand. I kept watch on him as they walked towards us.

"Do you mind telling me what you told everybody about me? Why would you do that to me?" I said as I poked my finger into his chest.

"Well you are my little sister…and I didn't want anybody to mess with you…so I wanted to make them realize I wouldn't allow any…" I stopped him right there.

"You have done this my entire life; if you haven't noticed I am a grown up woman…with grown woman breasts (kind of) and a grown woman's brain. Haven't I always been able to take care of myself?" I stood waiting for an answer. I wasn't really pissed I just wanted him to think little sister was. I felt Edward stand behind me, he placed his hands on my shoulders as if to try and calm me.

"Bella, this is my fault I shouldn't have told you anything; it's obvious he loves you and just wanted to protect you from the likes of us."

"Edward maybe I don't want to be protected from the likes of…you." I said as I raised an eyebrow suggestively. I felt him step even closer to me.

"Sorry sister, I was excited for you to be joining us; and then I showed them pictures of you. The guys all whistled and woo-hoo'd and of course yours truly here (pointing at Edward) made a comment of how beautiful you are; and jealous protective brother swooped in as always. I am sorry." He said.

"That's ridiculous; you know I haven't brought out that kind of response to men. Don't make fun of me or I will go back home to Texas."

"Bella, he is telling the truth. You are an extraordinary beautiful woman. We're guys of course we responded to your picture. Why would you think this of yourself?"

I turned to look at Edward and he was looking at me nodding his head yes.

"Um…I never had anybody respond to me like that before." I said as I looked into his eyes.

"Well then those Texas boys are foolish and blind…because you are very beautiful. Don't be too hard on him. I have sisters so I know how it is." He said looking at Jasper then back to me.

"Okay…well thank you." I said quietly.

"Bella…can you come in here for a minute?" We all turned to look at Linda.

"Sure, excuse me. Wish me luck." I said. I felt a kiss placed on the back of my head. I turned to a smiling Edward. I am so fucking turned on right now; am I a crazy fan-girl or is there possibly something going on between us? I disregarded that thought. There is no way he could be interested in me.

Before going into the house, I turned to find Edward staring at me. I guess he noticed that I stopped and his eyes immediately rose to meet mine. "Sorry." He mouthed at me. I smiled at him and walked in the house.

"What the fuck Edward?" Jasper said to me as he stared at me.

"What?" I said. Knowing full well, he caught me staring at his sister's ass. Her very beautiful and curvy ass.

"Are you staring at my sister's ass?" Uh oh big brother is back.

"Yea you did, do you have a problem with me staring at your very beautiful, smart and funny as hell sister?" I stared right back at him challenging him.

"Well ya…I mean she…she hasn't had many…" Alice stopped him. As I looked curiously at him. "That is Bella's story to tell, not yours. So let it go." She said with a little bit of vinegar in her tone.

"Ok your right. But Edward if you hurt her I swear to God the most "Beautiful man in the world" award will go to someone else next year, got it?" I laughed at him. That was an embarrassing award…please give it to somebody else. I really hated that kind of attention.

"Jasper honestly man; I have never felt this kind of connection with a woman before in my life. I wouldn't dream of hurting her. I promise." I said as I stuck out my fist for our traditional fist bump. He returned the bump and smiled.
