25 minutes had passed. Within that time I had changed into a pair of jeans and a tee-shirt, convinced Jasper to let Emmett at least cover his "Special place", and gotten Rose out of the run so we didn't have to see anything traumatizing...

"I'm so sorry I dragged you into this Bella." Emmett told me, standing next to me in an extremely long coat, he was trying to cover up as much as possible.

"It's okay." I whispered back in knowing, with my mind reading, it would be easy for him to know where to walk and where to avoid.

"Your going to have to take that off now." Jasper told him, eyeing the gathering crowd in the lobby. The clock tolled downstairs, I remembered my excuse. Emmett was a nudist who got extremely drunk in the hotel's bar and decided to streak.

"Now go!" Jasper said excited to see the emotions coming off of the people around the hotel.

This was probably going to end up being one of the most embrassing moments of my life. I had to streak throughout our hotel. Though I had asked Bella to guide me throughout the hotel avoiding crowded hallways or people in general. I also had asked for an excuse and from what I'd heard it was something along the lines of me being Bella's drunk nudist brother.

The clock tolled and Jasper told us to go on and run through the hotel. I dropped the coat to the ground and Bella looked away embrassed.

We took the elevator first down to the bottom floor, and thankfully it wasn't a glass elevator!

Bella and I walked down the first hallway on the floor that was thankfully empty. I was trying my best to cover up my man-hood, but I couldn't exactly keep it up for long.

"Crap!" Bella said, as we reached the next hallway, it was filled with people. I looked at her and thought 'vampire run'. She nodded, and we ran as fast as possible.

Seeing as Bella's probably the fastest vampire alive she was already half way through the 4 th floor before I was done with the 3rd. She stopped to wait, when I got there she led me onto a crowded hallway.

"Jasper said we had to walk at a human pace through at least one hallway." She explained looking around, I covered up as much as possible and ran through at a human pace with Bella jogging behind me pretending she was slower than me. A couple people turned to stare, but not many, so for that I was eternally grateful.

We ran at in inhuman speed through the rest of the floors until we reached the floor before ours.

And then I saw him, it was the guy from the baseball game. The same one that my little sister had just had her first kiss with. I looked to her and and she whispered 'I can't read his mind' to low for any human to possibly hear. How was that possible? She lseemed pained, but all she did was shrug.

"Oh dear god!" I heard the guy mutter, obviously seeing my nudity. "Why hello to you too, dude who made out with my sister in front of thousands of people." I said in a sarcastic voice, speaking my thoughts aloud. Bella quickly kicked the back of my knee, before the guy had time to react.

"Your the girl from the baseball game, Um... Bella!" He said looking pleased, he was smiling a crooked smile. I looked back to Bella and she was smiling back at him.

"You know what, I'm going to leave you two alone and go finish my dare before you have to use your crappy excuse!" I told Bella teasingly, she laughed and nodded. Knowing I could manage on my own...

Bella was here in front of me, the most beautiful girl in the world. The girl who had ran from me the second the Yankees game ended. Leaving me to wonder what I did wrong.

"Hi Edward." Bella said looking up to meet my gaze. "God Emmett's such an idiot." She muttered pointing towards her brother who had just walked off saying something about a dare and Bella's crappy excuse. He had stopped trying to cover up and had put his hands up in the air and was running up at set of stairs up to the last floor and ran up too a blonde woman and she jumped in his arms and they walked inside a open hotel room door slamming it behind them.

"My brother was on a dare from my other brother Jasper to streak through the hotel" Bella explained to me, knowing I was curious about why her brother was randomly running in the nude around a hotel.

"Bella, I caught Emmett on tape you have to see it. It's hilarious!" A blonde guy yelled from the floor above.

"That'd be Jasper, I guess he caught the dare on tape. I have to go watch this! I guess I'll see you around" She said walking backwards towards the stairs.

"Bye." I said smiling at her, she waved quickly and skipped up the steps to the last floor and gracfully made her way over to her door, she looked over her shoulder one last time and smiled. She looked like a heavenly angel...

My phone started to ring, the new ringtone I'd given it for Renee, Razorblade by. Blue october.

"I'm in a day-by-day collision called the art of growing up" It started, I had started a new life now. But I couldn't not answer the phone purposelly knowing who it was. Even if I was mad at her I couldn't be rude, it was just not the way I was raised...

"Hello." I answered pretending I didn't know who was calling. "Edward You're coming home this instant" my mother yelled into the phone. "Mom all the flights are canceled until the 28th at the earliest." I told her in a ploite calm voice.

"Edward you need to come home." She commanded, as if she had some strong sense of power over me.

"Forks is home for me now." I told her in a quiet voice.

"Edward, I need you. I can't do anything right without you here..." Renee whispered quietly sobbing.

"Mom, Charlie needs me too. I think some guy bonding time would do me some good." I said half lieing.

"You'll at least visit. Right?" Renee asked, in a sad voice.

"Yes, mom of course." I told her.

"When you visit maybe you could bring a friend!" Renee suggested cheerily, lightening the mood.

"Yeah that'd work." I told her, trying to imagine having to introduce my mom to someone I haven't even met yet.

"Also I picked up your mustang from the airport, a couple hours ago, and got it shipped out. It should be in Forks by the time you get there." Renee told me, I thanked her, explained how I got here, and we said our good byes and hung up.

"Hi." I heard a cute slightly velvetty voice say from behind me. I turned around to see Bella walking down the stairs towards me.

"So you're stuck, alone in NYC for a week." Bella said walking up next to me. How much did she hear?

"Yes?" I replied in a questioning tone.

"You look like I'm about to mug you or something!" She said laughing. "I over-heard you talking while going for a walk and decided to come talk." She said looking down at the ground.

"Oh, well that's nice of you." I said looking at her face, a blush rising on my cheeks. I wasn't used to random people I barely knew being nice to me, or people in general for that matter.

In Phoneix I'd been the school loner, and had been ultimantely classified as a nerd. So I never really had friends. The concept of people, especially people as beautiful as this being kind to me. It felt good honestly...

"So I was wondering. Would you like to spend Christmas with my family?" Bella asked looking at me with a kind smile that I couldn't refuse.

"I'd love that." I said. She smiled and led me up the stairs to her family's master suite...
