Chapter 11

First Official Girlfriend Day

So I kept on looking at the window and to Edward the whole ride to the Cullen's house. Yeah I know, I'm pretty pathetic to feel nervous but you can't blame me. I'm his girlfriend now…even though I'm just a fake one.

"What are you thinking? You look nervous" Edward suddenly distracted me from my thoughts.

"I am nervous" I said and he laughed. "Why are you laughing?" I frowned.

"You are nervous? You already met my family for days…it's not a big deal anymore" He laughed at me again.

"I'm not nervous whether they would still like me or not, I'm nervous of what your father will say. What if he got mad at you? I mean, I'm just you're tutor remember and suddenly now I'm pretending as your girlfriend! That's crazy you know…"

"My father? Bella, you saw him in a very different perspective way. My father is not like any other Dad who chooses the path their child should pick. My Dad made me choose my own decisions, whether it's the good thing or not. He lets me, Rose and even Luce to learn from our mistake and grow up independently"

"Huh?" I asked as he drove.

"When me and Tanya became together, I knew my father didn't want that. But he still didn't tell me any bad word about my relationship with Tanya. I bet he will still do that with you"

I didn't say a word after that and neither is he. Someone about what he said still lingers in my thought. His father doesn't want Tanya. Why? Why even Rosalie does tell me they don't want Tanya? What is it about her they don't like? I know she's a bitch but not so much. I also know she's a brat but is that the reason why they hate her? Maybe yes. Maybe.

When he stopped the car in front of the mansion, he quickly went out and opened my door. I smiled at his 'fake' gentleman thing…

I grabbed his hand and surprisingly, he didn't let go of it. He tossed his car keys to the guard who welcomed it. That guard parked the car into the garage at the side of this mansion. Geez, lots of paparazzis are already at the gate taking picture of us. Me and Edward pretended like we didn't saw them. How did they know we are here? That's weird.

When we entered his house, his mom startled me. She quickly ran towards me and hugged me. Edward just laughed but still didn't let go of my hand…such an actor.

His father walked to us and hand out his hand. Very well-mannered.

"Bella! We miss you!" Esme said.

"I do miss you all too. It's been three days" I joked.

"Yeah, well I'm glad you two are together" She told me and Edward. Edward smiled.

"Lunch is ready" His mom said and we both nodded. Where is luce? I miss her so much!

We all sat at the dining room immediately since we are all hungry…haha. I already got used to this.

But today was extra special. All the foods were grander and it looks like there was a fiesta today.

I sat beside Edward and Rosalie, on her side is Emmett. In front of Edward is his mom and in front of me is Luce. I waved hi at her and she waved back at me.

I miss you so much! - I mouthed. She smiled…

We started eating and it became quiet…funny really.

Edward seems the same but his family isn't. They look so curious at us.

Oh I know why…hmmm.

Rosalie cleared her throat and everyone looked at her, including me.

"I've seen your photos Bella; I swear it makes me say 'aww!' They are all so cute and sweet!" She said and I blushed.

Should we really be talking about this? Now I'm regretting signing the deal. Geez, Bella…stop it!

"Ohh" The only word I can reply. I don't know what to say! What if Edward got mad at me again like when I replied at Tanya…

"I thought you two are just friends" Carlisle suddenly asked and all the stares went to him.

"We are before" Edward cowardly said and everyone laughed.

"Good point" His mom said and we all laughed again.

"Dad, of course spending time with each other at school and at home will develop something" Rose said.

"You know Bella…I know your parents before, Charlie and Renee right?" Carlisle said. I curiously looked at him.

"You know them? How?" I asked. He didn't mention those before.

"They're my great friends. We knew each other when they bought their house and me and esme are doing the same. We shared ideas and thoughts. The year their house was built was the year this house is also built. We are at the funeral when they died. I'm so sorry about your loss. Of course you won't remember us, we tried to hide from people who knew us before then" He said and I realized everyone is staring at me, maybe measuring my expression.

I smiled at him. "Its okay, wherever they are…I'm sure they're great that I met you two"

"And to have Edward with you, of course" Esme said and I smiled.

I looked at Edward and he frowned…not frown as in mad but frowns as if he's guilty at something.

"Yeah" Edward suddenly agreed and smiled. He's acting…I'm sure of that.

"How did you two met again?" She asked me.

"At the library" I said then laughed, remembering Edward and what he did to me.

"I'm reading something when I saw her" Edward immediately said. Maybe he's afraid I might say the flip-me-off thing. Hahaha.

"You know how to read?" Emmett said then laughed loudly. Everyone laughed including me.

Edward stood up and we all became stunned. He's so sensitive? Huh? When someone jokes over him he just became mad?

He started to walk but I immediately clasped my hand into his.

Edward looked at me and I gave him a look that says 'come on, don't mind him okay?'

He stared at me for seconds before he sat. I was surprised he did what I wanted him to do. And I'm also surprised, he still didn't let go of my hand. Weird.

"Told yah mom, they're sweet" Rosalie said and Esme laughed.

"Sorry" Emmett mumbled and Luce laughed.

"Anyway, what are you two planning now?" Carlisle changed the subject.

"It's okay with her going with me in public but I'm thinking of stopping school" Edward mumbled.

"What?" I involuntarily asked.

"Well with us in public, every move we do can be detailed in newspaper or etc"

"But what about my studies?" I asked him.

"Home school"

"We'll talk about this later" I said. Us, stopping school is not in the rules.

I removed my hand over Edward. Now I'm in the bad mood, hope no one will realized that.

"I think Home school is a good idea for a little privacy" Carlisle muttered. Yeah right, MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS! PLEASE!

"Bella, is it true about the robbery thing last night?" They asked. I nodded.

"Yeah it was terrifying, I'm the one who saw the robbers. Good thing Edward got a paintball gun….it's kinda useful"

"Tell me everything!" Esme demanded.

And so, like a story telling, I told them everything. Good thing they didn't asked why we fought. I don't want to explain things that I had to lie to them again.

"Wow" Emmett said.

"Yeah w-o-w" Rose said.

"Good thing you two are safe now, I told you Edward, you should stay here" Esme said.

"And leave bella there? Nope" He said.

"Is it true you two are staying together?" Carlisle asked.

"Yep" Edward coolly said.

"Why can't you two just stay here?" Rose told us.

"I like the house there, you have no neighbors and stuffs" Edward muttered.

"Well this house is always open for you two, if you two changed your minds…" Carlisle said.

"Thanks" I replied.

"I'm glad you two are together, I like Bella for you son" Carlisle said and I smiled.

"I like her too" Edward said and we all laughed.

We ate desserts and talked again. This time about Luce's school, Rosalie's modeling project, Carlisle's books…and Esme's passion in cooking. She promised me she's visit the house sooner to teach me how to cook and where is Alice staying.

After eating, we all stood up. The maids were already there fixing everything. Cleaning everything…

"So are you two staying until midnight?" Esme asked.

"Nope, we have school tomorrow mom" Edward said.

"Why are you also absent Rosalie?" I asked her.

"I'm lazy today" She said and I laughed.

We all stayed at the living room but all of them had their own business. Edward's parents were watching TV, Rose and Emmett talking at the side, Edward…at my side, watching me play with Luce.

Its fun spending some time with his family and with Luce, this girl is such a cutie! Smile doesn't want to fade in my face whenever I saw her. But I'm tired now…

"Should we go home now?" I asked Edward but he shook his head.

"Maybe in the afternoon" He mumbled to me. Why are we staying here?

"Mom, we'll just be at my room" He said and her mom just nodded. He held my hand then we ran to the elevator. I swear he's so lazy…I mean, we can use stairs. At my house, we only use stairs even though it's in the third floor or something…but here? He's room is only on the second floor!

"I told you my Dad would like you" He said and I looked at him. He's on good mood today…

The elevator door opened and we walked to his room. He locked the door and I frowned at him.

"How many times did I said not to lock the door? I mean, Edward-" I started to scold him but he stopped me with a quick kiss. Then he unlocked the door.

I stayed stunned. He kissed me. AGAIN! GOSH!

"Why did you just do that?" I slowly said. He sat at his bed then laughed.

"Why can't I?"

"You freaking kissed me!" I lowered my voice a little. I'm quite worried if someone heard us.

"So?"

"Edward! That's out of rules" I said angrily.

"Lemme see, you didn't read all the rules huh?" He said then he stood up. He wrapped his arms around my waist and I pushed him off, that only made him laugh more.

"What do you mean?" I demanded.

"Number 30" He said.

"30? What does it says?" I almost shouted at him and he smirked.

"I can kiss you everytime I want. When I'm bored…when I'm making fun of you…when you're mad" He smiled.

I froze. He must be kidding me.

"You're joking" I said.

"Go home and you can read it" He smiled crookedly again.

"GEEZ! ARE YOU BORN TO IRRITATE AND MAKE ME SUFFER? GOSH! I should have read everything first before signing it!" I said.

"Told you…and number 31 say I can hug you ANYTIME I want" He said laughingly and I groaned. He sat at the bed again then laughed more.

"I hate you Edward Cullen" I stated the fact.

"Good because you said we can't fall in love with each other" He said.

"Why do you have to write those rules anyway? Kiss? Hug?"

"Fun. Boredom" He told me.

"You're getting in my nerves!" I said and he laughed at me again.

"Hahaha"

I crossed my arm then someone opened the door.

"Now why are you laughing? I can hear your voice outside" Rosalie asked and went inside the room. She sat at the couch.

"Bella's mad at me" He answered then laughed again. Rose looked at me then back to Edward again.

"And you're happy about it?" Rose asked him, sounding like it's unbelievable.

OF COURSE EDWARD'S UNBELIEVABLE!

"She looks cute when she's mad. Especially when she can't do anything" He said.

"She's a girl Edward! Stop making fun of her! She's your girlfriend not your toy!" Rose said.

Correction, I'm his toy not his girlfriend! ARGH!

"Don't even try to convince him Rose, there is nothing you can do to make up his boneheaded stupid brain" I hissed and went out of the room.

"See, I told you she's pissed off" I heard rose said.

"Fine!" Edward said and before I can go to the elevator, he was already at my back, holding my elbow… stopping me.

"Where do you think you're going?" He asked.

I turned around and pushed his hand off my elbow.

"Go away from you" I said.

"You can't"

"Why's that?"

"Because I don't want you to…Look, I'm sorry Bella"

"I'm tired of your sorry okay? So do me a favor and go away!" I told him.

He hugged me suddenly.

"Edward!" I almost shouted.

"I'm not going to let go until you are still mad at me, Bella. And you can't command me to stop this. It's in the rules" He said, hugging me tightly.

I became quiet. Should I tell him I'm not mad even though I am still mad? Yeah. The only way.

"How cute!" Rose suddenly said, taking pictures of us. I blushed then spoke at Edward.

"Fine!" I whispered to his ears.

"Don't attack me" He joked to me.

"Whatever" I said.

He let go of me and smiled at Edward.

"I don't care if you post that on your twitter or facebook" He said knowing that his sister would probably do something and that the blockmail is the video.

I laughed at Rose when she pouted.

I heard the elevator door opened and I almost went inside when Edward caught my hand.

"Let's stay at my room for a while" He muttered and I can't do anything but to nod. And that is because Rosalie is still watching us.

We went back to his room, ignoring his sister's teasing thing…

"The reason why I locked the doors" He mumbled.

"Whatever" I said and we went to sit at his bed. We lie down there and he spoke.

"I miss my room already" He said.

"Maybe you should go stay here and give me my house back" I told him.

"Why are you still mad at me? We can't fight because of small things Bella"

"Oh? So you're the only one who is allowed? The reason you got mad at Emmett earlier?" I spat at him.

"Shhh, you're so hot-tempered. Relax; What I'm saying is we should both change about that. I don't want us fighting especially when we'll have to leave together for a year" He said.

"Fine, okay" I said.

"You're still mad at me!" He demanded.

I exhaled. Ok, I'm not mad anymore.

"I'm not okay? Can't we just go home? I'm tired already. We still have school tomorrow" I said and he sat.

"Sure princess"

"Princess?" I asked.

"That's what I'm going to call you starting today"

"Ugh"

"You're my princess"

"A princess doesn't have to do things she don't want to do…I'm far from that"

"Princess stays" He mumbled.

"Fine! But I'm not going to call you my prince" I stuck out my tongue and he laughed.

"I didn't told you to call me that"

"Good"

"Let's go home"

We both stood up and walked to the elevator. When we were downstairs, we saw his Parents.

"Mr. and Mrs. Cullen, We should go home now, thanks for the lunch and the time you spent with us" I told them and Esme hugged me.

"Call me mom" I smiled at that.

"I'll get used to it" I said.

"You can call me dad" Carlisle said and we all laughed.

"Okay Dad" I said then laughed again.

I waved at Luce, Rose and Emmett. They waved back to me…

"Bye Mom" Edward said then hugged his mom.

"Bye" I said.

Outside, Edward's car is already in front. The guard gave him the keys but before we can get inside the car, I heard someone.

"Young master" We both looked around and saw Marie, his maid, running to us.

"Yeah Marie?" He asked.

"Your assistant dropped this by, she said she will be out of town for a week but everything you needed is arranged. This is your schedule and if you have questions, you can call her…" Marie smiled at him.

"Thanks" Edward smiled back.

"I'm glad you changed your mind"

"Yeah" Edward said.

"You two look perfect together" She said then she went back to the mansion. I stared at her for a while then sat at the passenger's seat.

Edward started to drive.

I know what she's saying about changing Edward's mind. When I first stayed at Edward's room, I pretended to be asleep and heard Edward say to Marie that he still likes Tanya. Maybe she's thinking Edward changed and now he loves me. Hilarious.

"So what is it really with you and your maid?" I said.

"Marie?"

"Who else?" I said.

"What about her?"

"Do you two have a background?"

"Background?"

"Like…you know, relationship" I told him and he chuckled.

"Relationship? We're just friends" He said.

"Friends? Why do you always in good mood with him? Why does your always not in the good mood with me?" I said then pouted.

"So you're jealous?" He stopped the car and looked at me. I can see we are the only one in this road.

"Jealous? Edward, no! I just…it seems unfair" I said.

"Unfair? How?" He said.

"You are always teasing me, irritating and annoying me…and your mood swings kills me! But when it comes to Marie, all you do is always smile. I think it's unfair!"

"So you're jealous"

"I'm not!"

"Marie had been working for me since we were 11. Of course, she's like a part of family to me. And there is nothing she'd done to make me frown"

"Whatever" I said. I just can't understand why he is like that to her and to me.

"Don't be jealous, she's just family…you are well…"

I raised an eyebrow and he laughed.

"Don't think I'll say love of my life because if I said that, maybe I'm drunk already"

"I thought you'll say 'the monster of my life'…" I said and he laughed.

"Didn't I told you let's not fight? Why are we fighting now?"

"We are not fighting…I'm just asking"

"Well I answered your question"

Then a bus passed through us. At that moment, I didn't realize we are leaning to each other. We leaned out and I stared at the window.

"Time to go home" He said and started the engine.

We drove back to our house.

Edward and I were glad when we saw no-waiting-paparazzis. Nice…

He locked the gates and I helped him with the curtains.

"I'm going to put automatic curtains…the one where you can control remote it to open and close"

"That's cool" I said.

"And we already have alarm system in the house" He said.

I went to the door and saw an alarm system. I glanced at the windows to see alarm burglar locks.

"What's the code?"

"Your birthday"

"Really?"

"Uh-huh" He said.

Why would he pick my birthday? Weird.

"Goodnight!" I shouted because I'm already near my bedroom.

"Night" Heard him say as he walked to the stairs.

I quickly went to my room, locked it and opened the drawer. I reached for the pocket of a jacket and looked at the rules.

He is damn right about the rules number 30 and 31. He is not lying to me!

Kiss me every time he wanted? Why? Why is he trying to kill me?

I wanted to back up to our deal but from what I heard earlier at the lunch, my parents cherished this house. I can get this back. I would just suffer a little longer.

Since it was cold today, I changed into pajamas and long-sleeves. School tomorrow will kill me. I can feel it.

PLEASE REVIEW! MHUAH!
