Chapter 2

EPOV

I wanted to get out of the house for awhile. So I asked Emmett my older brother where would be a good place to go. He told me Charlie's. He wanted to go all together as soon as he was off the phone with his girlfriend, Rosalie but I didn't want to hang around until he was done so I told him I would just meet him there. Mom and dad were out for the night and Alice was with Rosalie in Europe so I called Jasper and he said he would meet us there.

When I got there, the waitress almost collided with me. She was cute. When she looked at me I thought I recognized something familiar in her face but I couldn't quite place it. Oh well. I just settled into a booth and waited for the other two to show up. I was going to ask Jasper and Emmett she was but she seemed to have vanished before they got there.

I recognized some of the faces there but I was pretty sure they didn't recognize me. There was Tanya and Lauren sitting in a booth with Mike and Tyler. I had a crush on Tanya before I left but she wouldn't give me the time of day.

"Hello, can I get you something?, " an older waitress came to ask me.

"Nothing right now. I am waiting on some friends." I smiled at her wondering just how long I would have to sit here waiting.

"Just let me know." She smiled.

As I sat there I realized what a mistake it would be to ask Emmett or Jasper anything about a girl. Before they got there I decided it would be better not knowing.

Shortly after they arrived I noticed that the waitress came back in. She was standing on her tiptoes leaning over the counter whispering to the cook so I figured that she was taken. She was so damn cute standing there with her ass sticking out as she tried to keep her balance.

"So any hot girls in town?", I casually asked as I followed the waitresses every move with my eyes. Praying my older brother didn't pick up on anything.

"Actually bro. I haven't really noticed since I started dating Rose." I rolled my eyes I knew he was saying it because Jasper was Rose's brother. Jasper, "Hey what you say in front of me is in no way any of my sister's business and what I say in front of you is none of Alice's. Deal?" Emmett and I both nodded. All three of us shook on it.

I noticed that Jasper had waved at the cute waitress but I didn't want to ask about her because I didn't want them to read too much into it. She did wave back though.

I noticed that Mike and Tyler were also paying very close attention to everything the waitress did. Their dates were giving her the evil eye too. What is it with this girl that has the guys drooling and the girls wanting to kill her? I mean she had a boyfriend right? The cook must have been her boyfriend they looked like they were intimate, the way they just kept whispering and flirting with each other.

"Hey, Edward do you want to get going? I know you had a long drive home and I am pretty sure you want to unpack." Breaking me out of my trance, I was just grateful that he didn't catch on to what or who I was staring at. I knew he just wanted to go home so he could phone Rose again. Jasper had the same look on his face that Emmett did so I knew he wanted to call Alice. We paid our waitress and stood up to leave.

Emmett went over to the cute waitress. He was talking to her really quite so I couldn't quite hear what he said. Just then the cook came over to her and put his arm around her shoulders. "Yeah she'll be fine Em. I am going to stay with her until Charlie gets home." He said loud enough for the whole restaurant to here. Did he notice that I was staring at her all night or did he do it just to let everyone know she was taken? Emmett seemed cool with it and we left all of us in our separate cars. I decided to go for a little drive. I hadn't been here since last summer, as I drove up and down the streets, I was wondering how Alice's friend Isabella was doing.

Everytime I came home for a break from school she was always with her mom in Pheonix. That's the problem with having divorced parents and shared custody. I really missed being here all the time, going to school with my siblings and hanging out like a normal teenager. I was contemplating not going back to private school for my final year. I passed all the required programs I needed to get into a good music school. Senior year at my private school was just for general education and I could do that at home. Heck it might be fun to go to public school for just one year. I didn't really like private school I went to please my parents. They told me I could decide what I wanted to do for my senior year. I guess I would wait to see how the summer played out for me.

When I found myself closer to my house I decided to go home and not think about the cute waitress. She was taken. I quietly let myself in and I could hear Emmett on the phone with Rose. I just went up to my room and laid on my bed. I didn't really want to go to sleep too much on my mind. I must have fallen asleep because the next thing I heard was giggling.

"Oh Edward I am so glad you are home!" she jumped up and down on my bed until I got up. I groaned and rolled over.
