Chapter 3-

Detention.

Never in my life was I in detention.

Thanks to Edward Cullen, that changed.

I must say, it's not as bad as children on T.V. presume it is. Well, they didn't have a gorgeous, godlike figure in the same room as them…alone…sitting next to them.

"I still don't see what we're getting from this." Edward's velvet voice was telling me. "I mean, if Mr. Smith is just leaving us here, alone," he smiled, "what can we possibly learn?"

"Well, if I'm stuck here for another minute with you, I learned that I will never speak in class again." I retorted.

"Ooo, that's harsh Bella." Didn't seem like he thought it was harsh with the smirk playing on his lips.

"Aww poor baby." I felt a small thrill run through me as I said that, which I hated.

"Baby? Hmm…" He seemed amused by this.

"Don't even think about it." I said, giving him a warning look.

"I don't know what you're talking about." He said in an innocent voice.

I sighed. I didn't have time for games. I just wanted him to admit what he really was. "I'm sure you're very aware of what I'm talking about."

"Does this have anything to do with the fact that you believed a silly rumor?" He said, still amused.

I looked away from his intense stare, not wanting to show vulnerability. "Maybe."

He just did that laugh again, that made me feel gullible.

"What?" I asked annoyed.

"What makes you believe them?" He seemed too interested in what I was going to say next.

"It could be the girls you were surrounded by at lunch." I said, as if this didn't bother me one bit. Which it didn't.

"You watch me at lunch?" The smile on his face was growing larger.

I just blushed and looked down at my fingernails. Then, when I was sure that the color in my cheeks drained, I looked back at him. "Stop changing the subject. It seems that you're trying to avoid a certain conversation because I'm right-as always."

"Well, it's not my fault that girls find me attractive." He said, proving me wrong.

"Pshh." I said, trying to be indifferent.

"Do you find me attractive?" He asked with a wicked smile.

"No." I said too quickly.

But judging by his expression, he didn't seem convinced.

Just then Mr. Smith barged in, looking flustered with a touch of pink filling his cheeks.

"Uh. Forgot about you guys." He said, sounding more like he was talking to himself than us. "You may leave."

"And I was just getting to the good part." Edward said, snapping one of his fingers.

I gathered my stuff, ignoring him and stormed out of the room.

I subtly checked my pulse. I couldn't believe the speed at how fast my blood was racing through my veins. I felt this weird surge of adrenaline go through me.

What just happened?

I needed to go home and digest everything in order to get my mind straight-and slow my pulse.

Just then I felt a tap on my shoulder and turned around to find the reason of my now changed heart rate.

I spoke too soon.

"I believe we weren't done." Edward said in a seductive voice.

I cleared my throat and straightened my slouch-trying to control the rhythm of my heart. "I don't know what you're talking about." I quoted him.

"C'mon Bella. How about I take you to lunch?" An offer that was so hard to refuse.

"I don't think so."

"What, I'm not attractive enough for you?" He said, raising an eyebrow.

I just laughed and concentrated on something to my right-a coffee shop? "I don't know about you, Edward. But I don't judge people on looks." I said walking away from his shocked expression.

"But thanks for the offer." I yelled over my shoulder.

A/N-Yes I know, short.

But there really wasn't more to put to it…I think I ended it on a good note.

Next chapter will get more interesting, trust me!

Reviews are always nice.
