"Hello guys. Is it ok if Edward joins us?"

Chapter 2

EPOV

"I suppose so," grumbled Mick. He obviously wasn't very happy about me being friendly with Bella and his thoughts just reinforced my assumption. What annoyed me most was that he was more concerned about her appearance than her personality.

"Hey, Edward," said the girl called Jessica in a sultry voice that I realised was supposed to be seductive. "Come on, Edward. I'm way hotter than Bella. Shes's so ugly, I don't even know why Mick and all the other boys like her. They should like me."

My jaw set, and my eyes flashed with fury. This girl was supposed to be Bella's friend, she had been the girl to show Bella around. And then, just when Bella's back was turned, she was thinking and no doubt saying all these vicious untrue things. Bella was looking at me now, confusion in her eyes. She noticed that I was angry about something; she was very observant. Maybe a little too observant? How long would it take for her to realize that I wasn't an ordinary teenage human?

"What's wrong?" she whispered to me. We continued to have our own private discussion, ignoring the rest of them. Jessica and Lauren leaned into hear what we were saying and stated their own opinions, even though they weren't asked. I just ignored them, if they were going to go around and talk about the girl I loved in that way, they didn't disserve to be paid attention to. Bella, on the other hand, was too nice so she tried to include them as well, though I could tell she was reluctant.

Mr. Banner walked in and proceeded to inform everyone about this year's curriculum, all topics that I had been taught multiple times before, naturally. He was one of the only teachers in the school that didn't have assigned seating, but he told us that the seats we had chosen this lesson would be our seats for the rest of the year.

For the rest of the lesson, he talked to us on something to do with the digestive system. I wasn't really listening due to the presence of the angel beside me. Her scent was driving me crazy, and she didn't even realise. She was just sitting there, listening to the teacher speak with her hair tucked behind her ear with a slight smile on her face.

Bella and I were in the car park. We were among the last to leave, and I was going to Bella's house. Our relationship may have been going very fast for a normal human relationship, but I wasn't human.

I had organised with my family that they would drive the Volvo home and tell Carlisle about my change of plans. I wanted to delay the hunting trip until tomorrow, so that I could spend the rest of the afternoon with Bella.

Her car was very… special, well at least to her. I was dismayed to find out that her car couldn't go any faster than 60 miles an hour, and Bella was very careful with her car as well. So we were only going at about 40. 40! I was so tempted to press down hard on the accelerator, so it could at least go at least a little bit faster. Of course, Bella thought it was hilarious and teased me by decreasing the speed even more, making me beg.

I started asking her questions about her interests, her hobbies. I wanted to know everything about her, I wanted to know more about her than anyone else in the world. Even more than her parents. I still couldn't believe that Bella could even think to talk to such a worthless monster like me. She was too good, too generous.

"Am I ever going to get a chance to ask you some questions?" Bella whined and her bottom lip stuck out into a pout. I laughed. "Hey, why don't we play Truth?"

I stared at her, confused. What was Truth?

"Haven't you ever played Truth before?" I shook my head. "Aw poor Edward. Didn't you ever play it when you were younger? Well, it's really easy. Basically all you have to do is ask the other person a question. It can be about anything to do with yourself. Like all this embarrassing stuff. Then the other person answers and then they ask you a question. To win the game, the other person has to refuse to answer the question and then you have to answer theirs." I must have still looked confused as she tried to use an example. "For example, I could ask you… What was the most embarrassing thing that has ever happened to you? And then you would tell me and it would be you turn to ask me a question. But you have to tell the person the truth or then there would be no point of the game."

"Ok. Let's play," I agreed. By now we were sitting in Bella's kitchen. "I'll go first. Bella, what is your favourite colour?"

"That's easy," Bella smirked. "It changes day-to-day. Today, it's brown. Ok, my turn. Edward, how old were you when you learned how to play the piano and when did you first start composing your own music?"

"I started when I was five. I've been playing ever since. I started composing my own music a few years back, I was about eleven," I said smoothly, the lie coming easy. "So Bella, who was your best friend in Phoenix?"

"My best friend was called…" her face suddenly went all sad. "My best friend was called Catherine," I could tell she was lying. I tried to find her mind but I still couldn't find it. It frustrated me a lot - why was she so distant about her past. All she had mentioned was that she grew up in Phoenix with her mom and that she had remarried a man called Phil. I could tell that she didn't like Phil so I assumed that Phil was the reason that she had moved here. I decided to pretend that I didn't know that she was lying. "Ok, my turn again. So Edward, who is your best friend?"

We continued to ask each other questions about each other, but I stayed away from anything to do with her life before Forks. I would find out when she was ready. I had to be patient. Halfway through, Bella had to start making dinner for her and her dad. She invited me to stay for dinner but I made up an excuse that I had promised Esme that I would be back for dinner. I was disappointed to leave, but we would continue the game tomorrow in school.

As Alice had driven my Volvo home, I ran back home. I missed Bella already, but I was also relieved that I was away from the scent of her blood. I knew that my family would be curious about her. Rosalie was convinced that Bella was going to betray us if I told her about what we were, but I didn't believe that. She would be scared and horrified and would refuse to see me ever again, but I do not think she would tell anyone.

"I'm going to kill that Edward! How could he jeopardise our family's future here in Forks? She's not even that special, yes she's pretty, but nothing like me! Oh, here he is now. About time!" Rosalie was fuming inside. I heard from Alice's thoughts that they hadn't told Carlisle and Esme as they thought that it would be better hearing it from me. They already knew something was up, and all Alice had told them was it was very good news.

I opened the door to find the whole family starring at me, Alice and Jasper were smiling, Rosalie was really angry, whereas Carlisle and Esme had expectant smiles on their faces.

"Hey guys. What are you doing?" I pretended to be nonchalant.

"Edward, tell them!!" Alice bounced up and down. She was very excited about Bella and already thought of her as her new sister.

"Edward, what is going on?" inquired Esme.

We went into the living room and we all sat down in chairs. "Do you remember Charlie Swan? The police officer? His daughter moved in with him and it was her first day at school today. Esme, I never really understood that when you first met Carlisle that you knew that he was your soul mate. Until now. I love Bella with all my heart and I know that she's human and I'm a vampire and it's dangerous. I… I can't think of a life without her," I said earnestly, looking at Carlisle and Esme.

Esme looked really happy for me but concerned about my happiness. She thought that it wouldn't be very nice to have to always have your guard up with the person you loved most. That I might lose control and hurt Bella.

Rosalie looked disgusted. "She's bewitched you, Edward. You've only just met her, how can you love a human? By next week, you will have lost interest in her! And that slut will have another boy by the end of the week!"

"She does have a point, Edward. How do you not know this is not just a passing crush? Although I've never seen you so hung up about a person. She certainly must be something," Carlisle asked me.

"Carlisle, how could you even think that? The way Edward looks at her, he really loves her. Plus in all the visions I've had of Bella and Edward this afternoon, every single one ends with them being together. Carlisle, they're soul mates! And Rosalie, you know that Bella loves Edward too! Everyone in the same room as them would know!" Alice burst out.

"You really think she likes me?" I asked hopefully, sounding like a 12 year old boy with his first crush.

Alice rolled her eyes and said, "Edward, she loves you. She may have not said it yet but she does! I've never seen a couple more suited together and I've just known her a day! Well, except from Jasper and I." She said turning to Jasper and looking lovingly into his eyes.

I looked away, their moment seemed too private. I hoped that Bella and I would have that someday, but I knew that it would be impossible. She was human and I knew my family expected me to change her. But I couldn't.

"Edward, for once stop brooding and being a pessimistic. I know you think that Bella is a better person and she couldn't love you but trust me on this. You are the best brother I could ever ask for and you would be the best husband as well. She loves you. You love her. Act like a lovesick teenager for once in your life!" Alice lectured. Sometimes I think Alice is the mind reader, not me. She seemed to always know what I was thinking.

I smiled at her and went upstairs to my room. I needed to be alone where I could think about what had happened today. I realised that I wouldn't be able to stay away from Bella, even if I tried. I would find out what had happened to her before she moved and I would protect her from anyone or anything that posed a threat to her. I would love her and be with her for as long as she wanted me. I hoped that the answer to that would be forever.

I couldn't wait until I was with Bella again.

Awwww Don't you just love Edward?!

I thought that the Truth game would be a good way for them to get to know each other and it also gives more clues to what happened to Bella! lol

Please Review and tell me what you think of this!
