I'm just doing this next chapter, mostly because I can't take it anymore.

Thanks for the reviews and the ones that will come in the future hehe.

Chapter 10-

I was strangely anxious within the two hours I had to wait to go to dinner. I called Charlie-twice-clarifying if he needed me to leave anything for him. He said no-twice-which left me with nothing to do.

I began pacing, nervous about what I should wear. I don't think I was ever this stressed on choosing an outfit. I reached out for the phone, half tempted to call Alice, but pulled back-thinking better of it.

I ended up wearing a short jean skirt that Renee bought me but I never even took the tag off and a light blue halter that clung to my body perfectly. I remember Alice leaving it for me to wear to the pool party but I was too scared to. Now I had nothing to lose.

I slipped on the long black boots that Renee also got me for my sixteenth birthday. I wore them to my aunt's funeral a few months ago considering they were the only black shoes I had, and I did not like the stares I was getting from some of my few relatives.

But this wasn't a funeral and I'm pretty sure none of my family members were going to show up.

Jacob was five minutes late and the phone rang.

"Hello?" I answered.

"Bella," a breathless voice said. "It's me, Jacob. I'm really sorry. My motorcycle broke down."

"Why are you sorry?" I asked, a bit worried of where he is now.

"Because I'm late. Don't worry I called Edward to pick you up. I'll meet you guys back at the restaurant in a little. I have to go. I almost got this thing fi-SHOOT! I'll see you later Bella."

"Bu-" I tried to say but it was too late.

I growled in response and heard someone beeping their horn obnoxiously outside my house.

I looked through my window to see the silver Volvo shining and annoying.

I got out and the beeping stopped. Edward rolled down the window to the passenger seat window and I bent down to see his face.

"You might want to go put some clothes on if you want to be seen in public." Edward said with his adorable smirk.

"Very funny," I said opening the door and shutting it-hard.

Edward just looked straight to my legs, and then at my thighs, and my stomach, and chest…then finally my face. "Nice." He smiled.

"Just drive."

Edward obeyed and was quiet for a few moments. This surprised me.

I then noticed that someone-besides Jacob-was missing.

"Where's Tanya?" I said, remembering her name.

Edward laughed at this but ignored my question. "I'm surprised you noticed." He looked at me now, raised one eyebrow, and then looked back at the road.

I sighed. "So where is she?" I said, being the one to ignore him this time.

"We're meeting her there. Her dad owns the place so she's there all the time."

"Wow. She must have some money on her." I said, a tad jealous.

Edward showed a toothy grin. "Tons."

"Is that why you're with her?" I said, sounding indifferent and looking out the window to an unfamiliar place.

"No," he said curtly. "I really like Tanya. She's nice and smart and…gorgeous." He looked at me and winked.

"Ew," I said, then hesitated. "I know how you feel though."

"Do you?" he asked, amused.

"Yea," I started, "Jake is so sweet and I haven't known him for long-actually all my life-but I could tell he's a great guy. Like how he planned this. And he was so worried about me when his motorcycle broke down. He took care of things because he's so selfless. That's just the way he is. Always thinking of other people. That's what I love about him so much." I noticed I was rambling and looked over to see Edward.

His eyes were narrowed but on the road. His mouth was tight and his knuckles were white on the steering wheel.

"Are you okay?" I asked.

"Yea," he said but his voice cracked.

The rest of the ride he didn't talk to me-or even look at me for that matter. I wouldn't be surprised if he was bi polar.

We entered a parking lot to this huge restaurant called Bella Napoli.

How ironic.

Edward parked and he turned off the car. I heard the doors unlock.

"Get out," he said in monotone.

Someone was in a bad mood.

I got out and followed Edward. Well tried to since he was power walking faster than I run.

I finally caught up two feet behind him and we entered the restaurant which looked sort of like heaven's cafeteria.

The ceilings were high and everything was white. There was a nice dining area and then to the left were booths. Edward went to the booths areas and went to the front desk.

There was a strawberry blond behind it, looking down at a booklet. She looked up at us, her blue eyes piercing through me then smiled at Edward.

"May I help you?" She asked in a seductive voice.

"Maybe," Edward said in the same tone. "I'm looking for Tanya. Do you happen to know where she is?"

The girl stood up now, walked around the desk and put her arms around Edward's neck. Edward responded by putting his arms around her waist.

"Hmm, no but let's hope she doesn't come back." She said.

Edward leaned down-still smiling-and kissing the girl who was obviously Tanya. He kissed her the same way I saw him kiss Lauren and the girl from the parking lot. His eyes tight like he was focusing on something so hard and he seemed angry-hungry.

That's when my stomach grumbled.

Tanya was the first to pull away and looked over at me.

"You didn't introduce me to your friend, Edward." Tanya said, smiling at me.

Edward kept his eyes on her. "That's Bella. And this is Tanya." He said, beginning to kiss her again.

She pulled away again, laughing. "Edward! You're so rude." But she was still smiling.

I just stood there. Waiting. I felt so unwelcome. I couldn't wait until Jake got here.

"Nice to meet you," I said shyly.

"Well, let's get our table." Tanya said and led us to a booth.

I slid in, alone on my side but made room so Jake could sit on the edge to spread out his long legs. Edward slid in the other side and Tanya was on the edge so that he was across from me.

Great.

A girl with long black hair came to our table-I'm guessing she was our waitress.

"Hi, my name is Kathy and I'll be serving you tonight. Can I get you some drinks?" She said, sounding less alive by each word.

"Kathy," Tanya said, "I know who you are. You don't have to do all that stuff."

"Whatever." Kathy said. "What do you want to drink?"

"I'll have a sprite," Edward spoke first and looked at Tanya. "What do you want, baby?"

Gag.

"Uhmm I'll have a diet sprite."

"What about you?" Kathy gestured toward me.

"Regular coke is fine."

Kathy left without a word and Tanya turned to me.

"Do you know how much sugar regular coke has in it?" She said as if I committed some sort of crime.

"Yup," I said, not wanting to get into an argument with Edward's girlfriend. Then I would be giving him what he wanted.

"There you are!"

I turned to see Jake in a white shirt with all sort of stains on it and smudges of dirt on his nose.

"Finally," I muttered and Edward shot his head at me for the first time in a while.

I turned back at him but he looked back at Jacob, concentrating hard.

Jake came and sat next to me.

"Hey guys," he said. "Sorry I'm late-long story."

I noticed that I was smiling when I was looking at him.

"What are you smiling about cutie?" he said to me and leaned in for a tender kiss.

I pulled away and sighed then noticed that Edward and Tanya were kissing themselves.

Jeez. They couldn't let go of each other.

Or at least Edward couldn't.

The waitress came back and we placed out orders. I ordered a simple platter of the chicken fingers and everyone else ordered things I couldn't pronounce.

Jake still had a little smudge of dirt on his nose which of sort of annoying me and my tiny bit of OCD.

"You got a little something here," I said and licked my forefinger, wiping his nose. He grabbed my hand and kissed my wrist.

"Do you know how good you smell?" Jake said, now sniffing my wrist.

I just laughed and looked across the table.

Tanya was explaining something to Edward but he wasn't looking at her. He was glaring at us, disgusted.

What was his problem?

Tanya then pulled her hair to the right side of her shoulder, so it wasn't in the way of when she was talking to Edward.

Edward noticed this, leaned into her neck, and growled into it.

She giggled like an over obsessed teenager.

He made his way upwards and grabbed the edge or her ear with his teeth-his perfect teeth.

"Edward!" She screamed. "Not here," she said in a lower voice, but hinting to him that anywhere else would be perfect.

"You're so sexy," he whispered in her ear, loud enough for us to hear it.

I couldn't take any more of this.

"Uhm," I said-more to Jacob than anyone else since they were obviously busy- "I need to excuse myself for a sec."

"Oh, I'll come with you." Tanya said-prying Edward off of her-and got up the same time Jacob did so I could get out.

Edward narrowed his eyes at me before I left but I pretended not to notice.

We got to the bathroom and I went into one of the stalls, since I couldn't fake going to the bathroom now.

"Don't you just think he's great?" Tanya said a little loud so I could hear her.

"Who?"

"Edward," she sighed, "he's just so amazing and gorgeous."

The same adjective he used to describe you. They're perfect for each other.

"Oh, right." I said, not sure how to answer.

"Don't you think so?" She asked.

I hesitated. "Yea, he seems great." I'm glad she wasn't able to see my face.

"I think we're gonna-you know-tonight." She giggled.

I got out of the stall to see her face serious, aside from the giggles.

"You really think so?" I asked, trying not to sound interested.

She laughed now. "Yea. He's only like the hottest guy in town and I'm the hottest girl in town." She paused. "No offense."

"None taken." I couldn't get the image out of my head. Of Edward and Tanya-hands all over each other. It would be worse than watching him nibble on her ear.

"Let's go," she said when she was done fixing her makeup. "I don't want to keep Edward waiting."
