Chapter 6
Sensitive Bella
"What?" I said, I pulled my hand again and he let it go.
"Please stop asking 'what' Bella. You heard what I said" Edward complained.
"I can take care of myself Edward! I'm not a child…I don't need your help"
"I'll just drive you home…besides I promised Alice to keep you safe" He said.
I thought about that for a minute before speaking but he spoke first.
"Lemme guess, you're worried that if I saw where you live, I'll always visit you just to ruin your day" He chuckled.
"That's part of it" Honestly speaking, that's the only reason why I don't want him knowing where I live.
"Part? What's the other one?" He asked and sat beside me at his bed.
Shit. I don't…I just…well…
"Well, the paparazzis…what if they saw you going to my house? Seriously? Don't you have any brain in your head? Even though you didn't spoke to them, what you're doing is like telling them we are together. And I don't like that…EWW!" I said.
"You're worried about what they're going to think?"
"Of course. I'm a very private person. I respect that you're not but I hate your celebrity life. I'm not interested with any of it. And how many times should I repeat that?"
"Okay fine, but at least let one of my drivers drives you to your house"
"Alright"
"Well it's settle then"
"Can I ask something?" I immediately said. I just don't want the silence between us be back again. It's annoying…and awkward.
"What is it?"
"What's so important on attending premieres?"
"Well it's a way of exposure for actors"
"Exposure?"
"Mostly…but to us, I mean me…it's my way to promote a movie"
"Can't you promote it without going around the world?"
"It's always a tradition nowadays. What's a movie with a premiere without actors/actresses going there? Fans watch movies more especially when they get to see and get autographs from their idol"
"If they're really fans, they will support your movie without all that stuffs"
"You're asking me then you'll complain about my answers" He chuckled.
"I'm not complaining!"
"Yes, you are" He said.
I stayed quiet. I'm just making him see my point. I just don't get it…
"And now you're going to give me a silence treatment? W-o-w" He said.
"What should I say? There's nothing to talk about"
"How about tell me why you said yes to Jacob. I still can't believe it"
"He keeps on pleading"
"If I did the same, will you do the same too?" He muttered.
"Of course not" I immediately said then laughed.
I thought he'll laugh too but I'm wrong. He frowned then didn't spoke. Geez! Did I hit something? He's joking right?
"I'm just kidding" I mumbled. Totally nervous, what if he's angry? What if the cold Edward I encountered yesterday came back? That's sick.
And again, he didn't spoke. He was just looking at me.
"I swear if you keep on doing 'THAT', I'm gonna kill you!" I said.
"That?" He asked innocently.
"When I said a thing you didn't like or whatever, you suddenly became quiet and cold. I don't like it! Did I said something bad? And you didn't even want to tell me!"
I'm just praying tears won't flow…
"Wow! I really had that effect on you huh? I knew it! You like me" He laughed while I'm stunned.
"What did you just said?"
"I can't believe you felt like that when I became so cold. I'm just joking Bella. But I'm kinda happy you said you're just kidding…does that suppose to mean you'll say you can go to a date with me if I pled?" He laughed again,
I frowned. He is joking? What the hell? I KNEW IT! How can he even do that to me?
I know it's just a silly joke but it is not nice! I thought he really hates me. I stood up and ran outside his room to the stairs. I don't plan to use an elevator because surely he can stop me. I don't know why but I'm crying. I felt betrayed; I thought we're friends now? Even if sometimes I'm moody and I shouted at him. Why is he treating me like a toy? Someone he could make fun with! I HAVE A LIFE!
"Bella stop!" I heard Edward but I still ran. I was already outside the mansion…Some bodyguards, gardeners and a few maids watched me curiously.
"I said stop running Bella! What's your problem?" He shouted.
I didn't even dare to look at him. I continued running to the gate. Even if I had to run to my house, I'll do it. Just to get away from this stupid actor who is ruining my life!
"Don't open the damn gate!" Edward shouted to the guards and they obeyed him.
"Open it!" I shouted but no one spoke or even moved.
If this gate isn't as high as a pine tree, I dared myself to climb it…
I don't want to talk to Edward. I hate him. From the very start…something in my blood automatically hates him…and I'm sure of that.
He handles everything like a sick joke!
I slowly turned around and looked at him. I don't know what I look like but I continued to glare at him.
Speak or I'll kill you.
"Bella" He said.
EPOV
When Bella looked at me straight in the eyes, something pinched my heart.
Did I really hurt her that much? I knew exactly what I'd done wrong. I made fun of her but she took it like something more.
Her eyes were red, she cried. Shit! What have I done?
Real shit! My sister Rosalie will go to kill me and even her sister Alice!
"Bella" I whispered. I waited for her to speak but she didn't. She continued glaring at me.
"Leave us alone please" I said to the maids and the gardeners who are watching us like we are doing a movie. They immediately left us.
"Bella…I'm sorry" I said and she didn't replied.
I walked slowly to her then touched her hand but she pulled her hand out immediately.
"I didn't meant it okay? I was just…okay, I'm stupid. Like what you said, I don't have any brain in my head. I said and do things I shouldn't do…like making fun of you. I'm just, I don't know…I felt happy seeing your annoyed face. But now, I felt horrible. I'm really sorry…I promise I won't do it again"
I touched her cheek and she continued looking at me.
"I'll see you tomorrow" I told her…She looks so cold to me….SHIT!
"Daniel, drive her home safely" I told Daniel. He was the one who drove Bella to her house whenever Bella stayed at home late tutoring me.
"Yes sir"
Bella didn't say anything. She just went inside the car.
She's so sensitive. I just pretended I'm cold and she cried because of it? Seriously? But I felt so sad about myself. Hurting girls isn't my kind…They hurt me. And bella didn't even know anything about that.
I returned to my room and texted Bella. I just can't stop thinking of her…what if she committed suicide because of me? SHIT! STOP THINKING LIKE THAT EDWARD! That's so sick! This is not a movie!
I'm really sorry. I hope you can forgive me…
-E
I know it's too short but what do you want me to say? I already said things I wanted to say before she went home.
Whoah. Why am I thinking of Bella? Why am I worried about her? I should be thinking of Tanya. Tanya. Tanya. I want her back…
How are you? Text me back when you want someone to talked to.
-E
Tanya immediately texted back.
You sure we can talk? What if Bella got jealous?
-T
Bella? What the hell? I'm trying to forget her! If that girl didn't want my forgiveness, then let it be! I'm not going to die because I didn't earn her forgiveness!
Bella?
-E
Yep. Edward, I hate you for not telling me! I thought we were friends!
-T
Telling you what?
-E
You and Bella together? New pictures of you all around the internet. Better check it…and I hope you two fixed the fight already.
-T
I'll text you later, I'll check it.
-E
I immediately opened my laptop. I browsed the net and got startled. They got pictures of me and bella outside this mansion…
Although there are pictures with the gates, they still caught Bella crying and especially the one where I hold her hand and she pulled it out. Even the one where I touched her cheeks!
I'm dead. She's going to kill me…
She'll never going to forgive me!
And the worst part is, Tanya saw it! How can I get her back if she think I moved on?
I immediately texted her.
It's nothing. I'll pick you up the same time tomorrow. I'll go sleep…I'm really sleepy.
-E
Nothing? Haha whatever. Sleeping in the afternoon? Haha ok. Sweet dreams!
-T
And she didn't believe me.
ARGH!
I closed my eyes but bella's face this afternoon is all I could see.
"Are you thinking of me? That's why I'm thinking of you Bella? I'm really sorry" I whispered to myself and closed my eyes again.
BPOV
I hate him. And that's official. I don't care if he's really sorry about what he did…what's the use of forgiving him?
I mean, okay if I did, he'll repeat it again! And that is annoying!
Besides, I'm just a tutor. I should work professionally. Separate my personal life from tutoring him…I earn money by teaching him and not by being annoyed by him.
Fine, this is what he wants; I'll give it to him. He wants to be cold to me, I'll do the same. No more friendship…
Alice isn't home yet. I decided to go get some bath. I went upstairs and showered. After dressing myself a t-shirt and shorts, I looked at myself in the mirror.
My eyes are still red. I have to make an excuse before Alice asks me about what happened with it.
I immediately went downstairs and sliced an onion. I decided to make a sandwich for my snacks.
Then my phone buzzed.
Text message from Edward.
I'm really sorry. I hope you can forgive me…
-E
'Whatever' I thought to myself…
I deleted the text message and continued making a sandwich.
Then I heard someone shouted my name. I went in the living room to the door and saw alice at the gate. I opened the door gate and she smiled hugely.
"You have to tell me everything!" She clapped her hands and run towards the house. I locked the door gate and walked to her.
"There is no everything"
"Come on! You slept with him! You woke up with him and spent your hours with him! Of course there is everything!"
"Really there's none. I had fever last night…when I woke up, nothing exciting happened. We chatted, ate breakfast, I tutored him" Tutoring is a lie. "Ate lunch, watch TV then gone home"
She pouted.
"You're not lying?"
"Totally sure"
"Then why are your eyes red?" She asked.
"I am slicing the onions" I told her as I walked to the kitchen.
"For what?"
"Sandwich"
"Onions? EWW! I hate those!"
I laughed then continued what I'm doing.
That night, I stayed with Alice in the living room, watching television. We were eating popcorn when the door bell rang. Alice stood up and went outside.
After a minute, she came back jumping and screaming.
"BELLA! BELLA! BELLA!" I looked at her and she sat beside me.
She is holding a big box and I read the note.
"Sorry if it was late. See you tomorrow." From Jacob…
"What's tomorrow's occasion?" She asked.
"Oh, I haven't told you, I am his date to the premiere tomorrow"
"REALLY? OMG! LET'S OPEN IT!" Alice excitingly said.
When I opened it, we both gasped. It was…beautiful. The gown and even the shoes!
I quickly reached for my phone and texted Jacob thank you.
"This is too much!"
"This is exactly what's best for you" Alice said.
"Wow" I exhaled.
Then a news flash on the TV distracted both of us. I got SHOCKED to see my pictures with Edward. The worst part is, I'm only wearing tank tops and pajamas! And he did the same…only he had t-shirt and not tank top. These pictures only proved the whole Hollywood that me and Edward slept together…and we looked like couples who had fight!
Pictures of what happened this afternoon…like the one where I cried. The one where he touches my cheek…my hand.
GOSH!
SHIT! SHIT! SHIT! I'm dead! And then tomorrow I'm going to go with Jacob…people will think I'm a two-timer. Not that I said Edward is my boyfriend, but still!
My life is over! And I'm blaming Edward!
This only made me madder to him. He is ruining my quiet little happy life.
"You sure nothing happened this afternoon?" Alice asked then laughed.
I looked at her then explained everything…
She only laughed when I said the reason why I'm mad at him.
"You're hilarious bella…you should forgive him. You are like a kid!" She said.
"I'm not!"
"Well you shouldn't be angry at him…you know"
"Fine!" I said.
Alice laughed again and we continued watching TV. She even asked me to wear the dress for me to see if is suits but I shook my head. I said I wasn't in the mood to do that.
After dinner, Alice washed the dishes and I went upstairs to sleep.
I was about to close my eyes when my phone rang.
Still mad at me? =/
-E
Should I reply to him? Of course. Alice said I shouldn't be angry at him. And I'm not…the anger faded already.
Hmmm.
-B
Haha, what will he text back now? HAha.
Sorry again. I know you don't want to talk to me, okay…goodnight. Sweet dreams
-E
Don't want to talk? Whatever.
I closed my eyes and felt unconsciousness in me.
