AN/ Hey guys!! Someone very special encouraged me to write another chapter since she was the only one that told me what she would like me to do with this story. Thank You!! You guys should read her stories; the ones that I have read were really good. Her pen name is chocolate coffee so check her out! She's working on one that's called, Chosen Goods. It's pretty good right now, and I'm sure that it will stay great throughout the whole story. I told chocolate coffee that I would thank her on this chapter, so I did! Well, enough of my bickering, on with the story!
Disclaimer- Even though most of us would love to own the magnificent characters that Stephenie Myer made, we can't. I do not own anything what so ever on this chapter except the story itself. Except the characters! I also don't own the songs that are put into this story!!
The next week after the meeting
EPOV
Come on Edward! You can call her! I'm sure she hasn't forgotten about me. Well, at least I hope she hasn't forgotten about me. I look for the paper that her number was on and can't find it in my bed side table drawer. I knew I put it there! I mean, no one would just come in here and KNOW that the number is in here. I slapped my head and thought to myself, IDIOT! Why didn't I think of it before? Emmet and Alice took it! Ugh! I am going to punch Emmet! With that, I walked very quickly to the kitchen where Emmet and Alice were baking cookies, well, Alice was doing the baking, and Emmet was just waiting for them to be done so he can eat them. "Edward! My dear brother! How are you?" asked Emmet and Alice at the same time innocently. "Okay, who's going to tell me where Bella's number is?" I angrily asked. "Well, will you finally tell me who she is? Then maybe I'll get Emmet to get it from the secret spot." Alice said.
Flashback
Emmet, Rose and I were walking in when everyone yelled Welcome Home to Emmet and Rose. While through the small party that was going on, I couldn't help but smile and think of Bella. When my parents and grandparents, Carlisle and Esme Cullen and Elizabeth and Edward Sr. Masen, went out to have some "bonding" time together, leaving Alice, Jasper, Rose, Emmet, and I having the house to ourselves. We sat in a circle on the floor like we usually do when we are all alone. "So Eddie," Alice says, I wince from the name. "Care to tell all of us why the heck you were smiling all through the party?" Oh crap! Ugh, please don't say it Em. Please do not say why. "I'll tell you why!" Emmet yells out. "When we went to In-n-Out, He met a girl that was the cashier. He got her number!" "Thanks a lot Emmiebear!" Alice says to Em. "That's it, I can't take it im going to my room," I say and start walking up the stairs to my room.
"Wait! Edward! Can I at least know what her name is?" Alice yells at me from the bottom of the stairs. Ah…Bella, I love that Name! Her real name is Isabella but Bella for short. "Isabella but Bella for short!" I yelled back as I close my door not caring if she heard me or not.
Back to reality
Fantastic day at In-n-Out I think. "Alice I don't remember much but once you give me the number back, I can finally call her and find out. Once I get off the phone with her, I'll run down here and tell you, deal?" I say while tapping Emmet on the shoulder to go get the number and he looks at Alice and she nods so her jumps out of the seat he was sitting in and goes and gets the number. He comes back in two minutes and hands me the paper. "Thanks you very much Alice and Emmet,"I say and kiss Alice on the head and walk back upstairs to my room to call her.
I dial the number and waits for it to start ringing. [Bella is in bold, Edward is underlined]
Someone picks up on the second ring.
"Hello, Bell Swan, What's your favorite color?"
Wow…ha-ha from the movie Elf, I wonder if she always answers her phone to strangers like that…
"Hello to yourself, and my favorite color is….hmm…brown"
"Brown? May I ask why? Oh ha-ha also, may I ask who you are?"
"Hmm…im not sure if I can share why it's brown... I think its top secret, and what? You don't even remember your own Boyfriend?" Whoa, where did that confidence come from??
"Oh hey baby!! I'm sorry; I changed my phone so I lost some of my contacts. How are you babe?"
WHAT!?! I thought she said she was single! Well, she didn't have a ring on here finger and she also gave me her number…
"Bella! I thought you didn't have a boyfriend!"
Hears chuckle at the other line. "I don't have a boyfriend I was just playing along. You never told me who you are."
"Oh, you got me there for a second. It's Edward, Edward Cullen. We met at In-n-Out? Please tell me you remember, if you don't, you will NEVER hear from me ever again." Please god; please help her remember me…
"OH! Hey! I am assuming that you finally got the guts to call me? Don't sweat it; it would take me a while to call you too. So, Um would you like to meet me somewhere so we can talk to person, or do you like it like this?"
OH MY GOD! Did she just basically ask me out? I like this girl already...Edward! Respond!
"Hello? Not to be rude or anything, but is this going to become a habit of you randomly not answering for like a couple of minutes??"
"Oh! Sorry about that... umm, sure! Where would you like to meet? Maybe McDonalds? Wait; don't you live in Port Angeles? I live in Forks, how will we meet?"
"Oh, well lucky you, my mom and I decided to sell my apartment and move into my dead dad's house the day after we met, so I live in Forks now."
Woo!!! Does mental happy dance.
"That's great! Meet you there in like, what? 5 minutes?"
"Ummm…sure! Let me tell my mom I'm meeting up with someone from work to talk about our schedule because she'll freak if I said I was meeting up with a hot, gorgeous guy. I'm sorry, but I couldn't help it! It's true that you're hot and gorgeous."
I smiled and replied, "Well, I'll definitely take the hot and gorgeous as a compliment, and I'll meet you in 5!"
"Okay! I'll meet you there in 5 minutes hot boyfriend!"
I blushed and said, "Okay babe see you then. I love you!" and even though I just met her, I DO love her.
We both hung up and I got my gray pullover and ran downstairs. "Hey, I'm going for a jog I'll tell you all about it when I get home k Ali??" I said as I grabbed a cookie that was just pulled from the oven and it was still warm. "Ew! Why would I want to know about your sweaty jog? OH! Okay see you then," she said and kissed my cheek and went up to her room. I grabbed another cookie and my Ipod and started jogging to McDonalds while listening to Pain, By Jimmy Eat World.
I don't feel the way I've ever felt.
I know.
Gonna smile and not get worried.
I try but it shows.
Anyone can make what I have built.
And better now
Anyone can find the same white pills.
It takes my pain away.
It's a lie. A kiss with opened eyes.
And she's not breathing back.
Anything but bother me.
(It takes my pain away)
Never mind these are hurried times.
Oh oh oh
I can't let it bother me.
I never thought I'd walk away from you.
I did.
But it's a false sense of accomplishment.
Every time I quit
Anyone can see my every flaw.
It isn't hard.
Anyone can say they're above this all.
It takes my pain away.
It's a lie. A kiss with opened eyes.
And she's not breathing back.
Anything but bother me.
(It takes my pain away)
Never mind these are hurried times.
Oh oh oh
I can't let it bother me.
I can't let it bother me.
It takes my pain away.
It's a lie. A kiss with opened eyes.
And she's not breathing back.
Anything but bother me.
(It takes my pain away)
Never mind these are hurried times.
Oh oh oh
I can't let it bother me
Takes my pain,
Takes my pain,
Takes my pain away!
The song was over and I was at least a block away when a new song came on, When You Were Young by The Killers.
You sit there in your heartache
waiting on some beautiful boy to
save you from your old ways
you play forgiveness
watch it now ... here he comes!
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But he talks like a gentleman
Like you imagined when you were young
Can we climb this mountain
I don't know
Higher now than ever before
I know we can make it if we take it slow
Let's take it easy
Easy now, watch it go
We're burning down the highway skyline
On the back of a hurricane that started turning
When you were young
When you were young
And sometimes you close your eyes
and see the place where you used to live
When you were young
They say the devil's water, it ain't so sweet
You don't have to drink right now
But you can dip your feet
Every once in a little while
You sit there in your heartache
Waiting on some beautiful boy to
To save you from your old ways
You play forgiveness
Watch it now here he comes
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But he talks like a gentleman
Like you imagined when you were young
(He talks like a gentlemen, like you imagined when)
When you were young
I said he doesn't look a thing like Jesus
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But more than you'll ever know.
By the time the song finished, I was at McDonalds. I looked in the window when I was approaching the door and saw Bella in black skinny jeans and a royal blue tank top with a black jacket to cover up her arms doing something with her phone. I smiled and walked in.
When Bella heard the door open, her head jerked up from her phone and looked at me up and down and when she got to my eyes, she blushed and smiled. Jesus, does that girl know what her blush does to men like me? I walked up to the booth that she was sitting at and said while smirking, "Hey babe!! Did you miss me?"
she smirked back and came up to me and kissed my cheek and whispered, " I would love to do sooo much more than kiss your cheek" electricity shot down my spine and made me shiver, at that reaction she laughed and kissed me cheek and grabbed my hand and dragged me to sit across from her in the booth.
" What was with the kissing of the cheek and saying that into my ear?"
" You know, I'm not exactly sure. I feel like im drawn to you when you're with me and I get turned on. Sorry if I made you uncomfortable," she said and looked down. Wow…that's so cool! We both get turned on from being around each other.
"Oh I understand completely Bella, its okay. So what should we talk about?"
"Hmm… why don't we talk about our family?"
"Okay, you go first."
