Chapter 2

What does one do when the hottest guy at school is your brother?

It took only a few days for Edwardmania to hit in full force. Girls that I had gone to school with since grade 1 were now coming up and talking to me. One girl even flat out asked me to invite her over so she could watch Edward in his home. If it wasn't so creepy, I might have done it just to watch him squirm. Edward was taking all the new attention with a grain of salt, and it made him that much more attractive to the herd. I received several notes to pass on to him; they promptly ended up in the trash can. Rosalie was just about the only girl who was not interested in being Edward's first kiss. Thank goodness our little clique seemed to be immune to Edward's new fame.

"Hi Bella," Jessica called out to me as I entered our shared English class.

"Hey Jess," I said, sighing. The politeness was wearing off and it had only been three days. In a few weeks I figured I might have to punch her in the ovaries if she didn't leave me alone.

"Hi Edward," Jessica sang, ignoring me now that my brother was there.

"Hey," he said shooting a smirk at her that cause anger to rise up in me.

He took his seat next to mine at the double desk. He smiled his full smile at me but dropped it when he saw the look on my face.

"What's the matter, Sweetpea?" He asked, using the nickname my parents gave me as a child. He used to tease me with it but now it was almost a strange term of endearment. I was, however, forbidden to use his childhood nickname under any circumstances.

"You shouldn't encourage her," I said, subtly motioning to Jessica, "unless you are interested." He stared at me for a moment with a contemplative look on his face before I started panicking. "Oh god! Jessica?"

Edward let out a laugh. "No, no. But that was funny watching you squirm for a minute. Why does it matter anyway?" He asked, suddenly serious.

"Uh, well," I started, "I don't really want her hanging around our group. You deserve someone much more interesting than her."

"So I should find someone more like you?" He asked almost quietly.

"Well, you'll never find anyone as awesome as me, but yeah, you should set the bar high," I teased.

Edward's face seemed pained for a minute before we were interrupted by the teacher. I saw Jessica trying to get Edward's attention during class and he never noticed her. It made me feel good and I refused to dig deep and discover why.

Edward and I headed down the hall together; we both had gym next period and we were headed that way before a fury of blondness blocked our path.

"Hi Eddie," said the blonde.

"Hi Lauren," Edward said, shooting that same smirk. I could see Lauren's eyes brighten and I just wanted to wipe that smirk off his face. I began to notice that I seemed to be having a lot more violent thoughts since Edward started at my school.

To have said I disliked Jessica would be an understatement, but to have said I hated Lauren would have been kind. At the tender age of fifteen, Lauren had given no less than ten different guys blowjobs. I know, you think that maybe these are just rumors. Nope. Not only did she perform such acts, she also recorded them on her web cam and posted them on her MySpace page. Sometimes I think Primetime should ignore the predators for an episode and come after girls like Lauren. They are their own brand of predator.

"So, Jessica and I are having a party on Saturday. My parents will be out of town so we will be able to do whatever we want," she said with a wink, "you wanna come?"

I choked on a laugh at Lauren's double entendre. Edward covertly elbowed me in the side.

"I don't know, you want to go Bella?" he asked me. Lauren gave me the pleading eyes.

"Yeah probably, we'll let you know," I responded.

Lauren jumped up and down and squealed a little. "Great see you there." Her comment was directed only to Edward.

"Well that was interesting," Edward said as we continued to class.

"That wasn't the kind of interesting I meant," I replied. "Look Edward, you should know that Lauren has a reputation. And if you do anything, just be careful, cause it could end up on the internet."

"Bella? Seriously? I would hope you would know me better than that. I have a bit more self respect than to fall for someone like Lauren Mallory. Her reputation is spread through more than just this school."

That comment made me glow with pride for my brother.

"I can't believe I don't have a single class with anyone but Rose this term," Emmett said, the pout he sported looked ridiculous on his broad face. He still had some of his baby fat left but he spent the summer lifting weights and his body was starting to become quite muscular.

"Thanks so much, jerkwad," Rose retorted.

"That's not what I meant and you know it," Emmett replied stealing one of her fries off her plate. "I guess I'm probably still better off than Edward."

"Actually Edward is in my English class and my gym class," I replied.

"How did you swing that?" Jasper asked.

"Well they kinda skipped me ahead in English based on my grades and Bella failed gym last year so she is in my class," Edward replied.

"Hey you weren't supposed to tell!" I shouted over the last of his sentence, trying to drown him out. My friends weren't fooled and they started snickering at my expense.

"Who fails gym?" Emmett barked out still laughing.

I folded my arms and sat back in a huff. I had been embarrassed about failing gym and I hadn't told anyone but my parents and Edward. I felt a little betrayed that he would tell them so bluntly.

Edward slung his arm around my shoulders and leaned in. "I'm sorry," he whispered, "I thought they knew." His tone was sincere and even though we teased each other I knew he wouldn't do anything to hurt me on purpose.

"So did anyone else hear about Thing 1 and Thing 2's party?" Rosalie asked changing the subject.

"Yeah, are we going?" Mike asked excitedly. His voice made me jump as I didn't even realize that he was sitting next to me.

"Sure, why not?" I replied.

"Hey what are you wearing to….oh shoot sorry," I blurted as I walked into Edward's room, finding him sans pants. My eyes took a moment longer than appropriate to deviate and then a blush rose up on my cheeks.

"Whatever, it's not like I'm naked," Edward scoffed, obviously unaware what the big deal was, "you've seen me in less."

"Just cause I saw your penis in the bathtub when I was two doesn't mean I need to see it now," I retorted turning bright red. Edward just chuckled to hide his own embarrassment and pulled some pants on.

"So what did you barge in here for then?" He asked.

"I just wondered what you were wearing to the party tonight." I brought my gaze back to him as he pulled a green t-shirt over his head. It was nothing special but it hung nicely on him.

"Uh, this?" he responded.

"Oh, okay. Thanks." I felt the lame comment hang in the room before turning and walking out of the room.

I headed back to my room and opened my closet door. I really only had one close girlfriend but Rosalie looked hot no matter what she put on, so she was really no help dressing me. She offered me use of her closet, but with our differing skin and hair tones, our color palates didn't really mesh. Regardless of being pale I couldn't pull of any ivory tones, only stark white.

I pulled out a deep red, fitted t-shirt and threw on a pair of black pants with cargo pockets. I took a look in the mirror and then exchanged the red top for a green one. It was gathered in the bust and then flowed loosely down to my hips.

A knock sounded on my door followed by a voice, "You ready?"

"Yup," I said opening the door to find Edward standing there. He had gel in his hair and it looked a little like when he woke up in the morning, only crazier. I would have laughed at it on anyone else, but like everything, Edward was able to pull it off. Not just pull it off, he owned it.

"So, did you ask so you could match me?" He asked cocking his eyebrow. I looked him up and down; I didn't even realize his jeans were black. After seeing his boxers I hadn't let my eyes drift that low again.

"Oh crap, I didn't even realize, I can change…"

"No," he said cutting me off, "I don't mind. We can give Jasper and Rose a run for the cutest siblings tonight." He looked down and away suddenly leaving me feeling weird.

"Okay then, let's go."

Edward followed me down the stairs and we said a quick goodbye to the parents. The benefits of living in Forks were that most everyone lived within walking distance. Well okay, not everyone, but most of the people we associated with did.

We picked up Rose and Jasper about two blocks away from our house. They were waiting on the corner of their street. Then, about a block away from Lauren's house, Emmett and Mike came bounding down the street.

As we were walking I couldn't help but wonder what we would look like in slow motion. Would we be all cool with our hair blowing in the wind, walking along with a swagger or… the thought was interrupted by me falling in very fast motion.

Edward grabbed a hold of my one arm and Mike grabbed the other one.

"Hey, I got ya," Mike said and Edward let go.

"Thanks," I mumbled.

Jessica answered the door when we knocked. "Edward!" She chirped. "And everyone else, come in."

"After you, guest of honor," I teased waving Edward in. He scowled at me before taking the lead but then muttered, "Don't hate me cause I'm beautiful."

"Hey guys, I'll be right back," Emmett said, taking off into the room. I vaguely heard him calling someone's name before transferring my attention elsewhere.

"Drinks are in the kitchen, help yourselves," Jessica said, standing all together too close to Edward for my liking.

"Do you want something to drink Bella?" Mike asked me.

"Uh sure, just get me whatever you are having." Mike smiled at me and then took off towards the kitchen.

Emmett bounded back before Mike returned with a cup in his one hand and a tiny girl on the other. She looked like she must have been nine years old. She was tiny, with a short, black bob and big round eyes.

"Hey everyone, this is Alice. Alice, this is everyone," Emmett said introducing us.

I looked at Emmett curiously. Why had he run off to find someone's sister?

"Hi Alice, I'm Bella," I said politely.

"Alice is in my math class," Emmett explained. My eyes grew wide as I appraised her again.

"Hi everyone, Emmett has told me so much about you. You must be Rosalie," she said winking at Rose.

"That's me," Rose answered.

"And you, you're Edward. And I must say the gossip has not done you justice." Her words were kind and not spoken with agenda.

"What gossip is that?" Edward asked curiously.

"Oh just how hot you are and how nice you hair is and such….girl stuff," she stated matter of fact then directed her attention to Jasper. "Now I'm pretty sure you aren't Mike so that means you are Jasper."

"Hi Alice, it's nice to meet you." Jasper's tone was soft and I turned to look at him only to see his face matched his words. He was gazing at Alice like she was a basket of kittens.

"Well Alice, I think we are going to be good friends," I said pulling her closer into the group.

Mike returned then with my drink and we introduced him to Alice. I took a swig from my cup only to realize it was beer. I choked a little before I felt a hand rub my back. It felt nice but I didn't want Mike to be touching me so tenderly. I knew he liked me but I wasn't sure I wanted to change our relationship. I turned to see it was Edward's hand on my back and I smiled.

"Take it easy tonight, okay?" He asked.

"Sure, whatever," I replied nonchalantly.

Our group split up as we wandered around, chatting with new acquaintances from our classes. Mike never strayed far from me, always checking back to fill up my drink.

EPOV

The party was different than I'd expected. The gang had gone to a couple last year but mom hadn't let me go, saying: 'you'll have plenty of time to go to high school parties when you are in high school.'

I expected drinking, but I'd also expected debauchery and fights. I guess I had been watching too much Animal House. Everyone was fairly well behaved, maybe just a bit sillier. I was not going to be drinking though; I wanted to be able to go to another party again and my mom had a way of finding out everything. Our group had broken apart to mingle a bit but I kept checking back on Bella seeing where she was. I told myself that I felt protective because she was my sister, but my brain wasn't buying it.

It seemed no matter how long I looked away I would be able to find her in an instant. It was like she had a giant spotlight on her showing me the way. I figured it must be a sibling thing.

"Hey Jasper," I said catching up with my friend.

"Hey," he replied.

"Where's Rosalie?" I asked, testing my theory.

He scanned the crowd for a minute before shrugging. "I don't know." Jasper tipped his glass to me and then walked over to chat with another guy.

I found an empty chair and sat down, feeling a little bored. I much preferred hanging out in small groups.

"Hi Edward." The sweet voice barely registered above the party noise.

"Hi Irina," I replied, looking up at her.

"Are you having fun?" She asked.

"Not really," I said honestly.

She laughed. "Me either. So I was wondering if maybe you would like to go catch a movie together sometime?" she asked fidgeting.

"Uhm," I paused unsure of what to say. She was a nice girl and there was no reason to not go out with her. "Can I think about it?" I felt like a douche saying it but I couldn't give her an answer.

"Sure, uh, yeah. Okay, I will talk to you later then," she said awkwardly. She started to walk away and I grabbed her hand.

"Irina?"

"Yes?"

"Thanks for asking," I replied. She gave me a small smile and I returned it.

After Irina left I stood up and glanced around, looking for Bella. Mike was still shadowing her and she looked like she was having a good time. She looked over and caught my eye, smiling and waving. She was obviously not worried about drinking, she looked drunk.

I felt a clammy hand run down my arm followed by a scratchy voice. "Hi Edward, are you having fun?" I am sure that Lauren had meant for her comment to sound seductive but she sounded like a little girl playing in something she didn't understand.

"Uhm," I started but was cut off.

"Do you want to come up and see my room, I have my own computer."

Even with all the attention I had been receiving in the short time I had started school, I was still inept at letting girls down gently.

"I'm just going to grab a drink and then I'll come find you okay?" I said hoping that would buy me some time.

"Okay, I'll just wait for you over here," she said pointing to the base of the stairs.

I did my best to give her a smile before heading towards the kitchen. Luckily for me the kitchen had a door that lead out to the back yard. I took the opportunity to hide outside for a while.

The weather was chilly and I had left my jacket in the house, but there was no way I was about to risk running into Lauren if I went back in. I grabbed one of the lawn chairs and tucked it off the side of the deck. I figured that no one would find me there.

As always, when I was alone, my thoughts would drift to Bella. My head knew my thoughts and feelings for my sister were wrong but my heart couldn't grasp it. I would remember small things she had done for me growing up. The simplest things, like sharing her M&M's with me, felt monumental.

"Edward, is that you?" Bella's voice startled me from my daydreams. The real thing assaulted my senses much more effectively than my daydreams.

I turned to see her stumbling down the stairs of the deck. I hopped up and grabbed her arm guiding her down safely.

"What are you doing out here?" Bella asked.

"One might ask you the same thing," I replied.

"I was looking for you. Lauren is on the warpath in there," she giggled.

"Are you drunk?" I asked, pulling up a chair for Bella to sit.

"Nooooooooo, well, maybe a little," she responded laughing. Her face turned serious for a moment. "Did you really tell Lauren you would go up to her room with her?"

Shame coursed through me as I noticed the hurt look on Bella's face. "I didn't know what to say so I told her I was getting a drink and then I came out here to hide." Bella burst out laughing. She was most assuredly drunk. "Besides, I already told you, Lauren is not my type."

"Who is your type?" Bella asked, leaning dangerously close to my face. I could feel her breath on my skin, and although it smelled of cheap liquor, it was still heavenly.

I cleared my throat and sat back saying, "One as great as my Sweetpea sister. Come on, let's get you home."

I slung my arm around her shoulders and we headed home. I felt very protective of her and it only got worse after that.
