Find Me

Edward's POV

After Bella left me standing there in the rain I almost broke down. But I mustered all of my strength to go home, and change from my wrecked clothing. I fell asleep fast after my long day, and I was thankful that it would be Saturday tomorrow. I woke up from my sleep at around twelve in the afternoon. I killed some time by playing my piano, and writing some music, before I decided to go to the movies to ease my mind. Nothing really great was playing at the theaters but I made myself choose a pointless movie to pass the time.

While I was standing there in the concession line I sensed tension in the facility. I didn't turn around to see who it was, and I don't know why. As I bought my popcorn I made my way to the room to see the movie. I picked the furthest seat as possible in the back row. It was dark in the room but there was just enough light to see the three girls going to seat down in the middle row. Tanya, Lauren, and Melissa. They were talking so loud, I could hear everything they were saying. "Where is Bella? She said she was just going to go to the washroom, and come meet us in here." Melissa said. What the heck? What is Bella doing going out with them? She wasn't the type of girl to hang out with these pretentious witches. I had placed my popcorn on the ground, and as I got up to go find Bella I kicked it all over the place. Thank God no one saw me though because there was no one in the back row sitting beside me.

As I made it to the lobby I saw a girl running for dear life from the theater. I debated going after her, but that would've seemed weird because I didn't know for a fact that it was Bella.

I didn't go back to watch the movie. I just decided to roam around the town for what seemed to be hours but it was only for about fifteen minutes. I found myself driving past Bella's house while I was going home. This was not my usual route but I found myself more and more driving by her home.

The lights were on, and I could see Charlie watching television. He got up from what seemed to be his sanctuary, and disappeared somewhere that I couldn't see. I made the choice to either go home, or go speak to Bella. I walked up the path to the door, and knocked lightly. "Hey. Is it alright if I come in? I know it's late but I have to tell you something." I asked her politely. "Sure." She offered back. She ushered me in, offered me a drink, and told me to sit in the living room. She came, and sat beside me closer than I was expecting.

"Bella, I would like to have the honor to get to know you better. I would hope you would accept going out with." I was nervous inside but I didn't let it show through the surface. I could see that I caught her off guard. She thought she heard something from upstairs so she ran to the stairs to see that no one was there. As she came back to sit beside me she started to talk to me. "Okay Edward. I'll go out with you." She slowly said this. "Great! How about tomorrow? Or is that too soon for you?" I was excited now that she said yes. "Oh no. I would like that. I don't really have much to do tomorrow so that would be great." She started to loosen up. "Well I'll pick you up around seven tomorrow night." I said this while we walked to the front door. "Alright I'll see you then." I said. "Bye Edward."

As I drove home I couldn't believe that I asked her out, and I didn't tell her instead about how disgusting I was. That's why I went to her house. To tell her about the bet. But I ended up asking her out! I just put myself in big problem right now.

Bella's POV

I left the theater quickly not turning around once to look behind me. I made my way home, and into my house, I shut the door, and collapsed my back onto its hard surface. Charlie heard my entrance, and asked me to come into the living room. He wanted to cook dinner with me tonight so that he could finally learn the way to make a simple spaghetti. After plenty of dishes broke in the kitchen we sat at our table to enjoy a quiet dinner. While Charlie finished he made his way to his favorite couch, and watched some sports highlights. I cleaned up everything in the kitchen, and once again sat at the table to finish some of my homework.

As I stood up from the table I saw headlights outside by our house. Charlie decided to head upstairs turning in for the night. I ended up watching some show on television about wildlife for a little while until I heard a knock at the door. I opened it up, and was once again surprised that he came to my house again.

"Hey. Is it alright if I come in? I know it's late but I have to tell you something." He asked nicely. "Sure." I said, and he walked in. I told him to sit in the living room, and I poured us some water. I wasn't completely thinking when I sat down beside him our legs were touching. He didn't flinch though, instead he started talking to me.

"Bella, I would like to have the honor to get to know you better. I would hope you would accept going out with." He calmly said. Oh my God. He is asking me out. I thought I heard Charlie get up so I rushed to the stairs to see. Nobody was there, and I thanked God because having a boy over this late would've been hard to explain. I made my way back over to Edward, and sat down in the same spot.

"Okay Edward. I'll go out with you." I accepted his offer slowly, and I was mentally kicking myself once again for doing that. "Great! How about tomorrow? Or is that too soon for you?" He said this with a crooked smile. I'm seriously going to die if he does that again. "Oh no. I would like that. I don't really have much to do tomorrow so that would be great." I felt like an idiot telling him that I had nothing planned tomorrow like I was some loner. "Well I'll pick you up around seven tomorrow night." As he said this we were walking to the door. "Alright I'll see you then." He said while walking down the pathway. "Bye Edward." I quietly said. I closed, and locked the door. I would be officially killed by Lauren, and the entire female population of Forks High.
