Chapter 14

We arrived at the mall, getting many stares.

Most girls were shocked when they saw that Edward was within five feet of me. Well, he barely was since he was trying to keep his distance. Others stared at how gorgeous Alice and Jasper were.

I didn't fit with them.

"Okay!" Alice said enthusiastically. "First, we're going to American Eagle, then Journey's, and then Hollister. After that we go to the food court." She clapped.

I got tired just listening to her.

In American Eagle, Edward and Jasper went to the men's section.

Alice went straight to the front display-meaning full price. I subtly glided over to the clearance section and began skimming.

"Bella," Alice said in a warning voice, "step away from the clearance rack! I will not allow you to buy those rags!"

I blushed and looked to see if anyone noticed. "I have no choice. I'm not exactly 'first class.'"

"Non sense! Don't worry about it Bella. I have this!" She pulled out a shiny American Express credit card.

"Ugh," I sighed, knowing that now-there was no excuse.

I-or Alice-ended up buying a navy blue shrunken toggle coat, an oatmeal heather skinny Henley, a pair of dark indigo wash midnight flare jeans, and a brown quilted mini duffel. (A/N-links to pictures in profile)

Alice made me memorize the names of everything just for 'future reference'-like I needed to.

Edward and Jasper were long done before us and we waiting outside. I saw Edward hit on a group of girls who were strolling by, ogling at him.

When Alice and I exit the store, Edward was talking to two different girls who looked a little older than him-one a redhead and one a dirty blond.

"…in my third year of college." I heard Edward say.

I watched Edward and he took a glance at me, placing his hand gently on the top of on the redheads arm.

"I'll see you around," he winked and came toward us.

"Jeez Edward," Alice started, "You might wanna calm down on the girls. We have a guest." She said, jerking her head towards me.

Edward smiled. "I'm sure Bella doesn't mind. She has a boyfriend. Isn't that right, Bella?" he looked at me sarcastically.

"Most definitely," I said in the same tone.

"Oh!" Alice screamed, startling me. "How is Jacob?"

I saw Edward narrow his eyes at me. I looked back at him.

"Great," I said-still looking at Edward. "Just great."

We stopped at Journeys for about .25 seconds until Alice stormed out muttering something about her x-boyfriend.

I was almost happy that he was there considering it was one less store to shop in.

Hollister was nearby. I missed it until Alice grabbed my arm and dragged me toward the small entrance I passed.

Wow.

This place was…dark.

Alice inhaled deeply and loudly. "Ah, I love this smell."

Inside wasn't nearly so small but was still very dark with the exception of three or four dim light bulbs.

I had trouble seeing the colors of clothes, let alone watch where I'm walking.

I took this advantage to sneak away from Alice and wander off.

For five minutes I didn't notice, but I was in the guys section. It could be the huge poster of a teenage boy modeling a sweatshirt or it could be Edward who was watching me from a dark corner.

At first, I thought it was my imagination so I came closer.

"Edward?" I whispered, hoping I didn't look like an idiot.

The so called Edward didn't say anything but just grabbed my hand and tugged it-pulling me into the darkness with him.

I felt a hand slide around my waist and pull me closer against its owner. For a second, a slick of light crossed his face and sure enough, it was Edward.

His other hand slid under my shirt and onto the small of my back, pushing me even closer so that our faces were just centimeters apart. The only way I could tell was from the sound of his breath on my cheek.

Suddenly, his lips were pressing hard against mine-as if they belonged there. I kissed him back and opened my mouth. His tongue brushed against mine and his hands were roaming my back.

One of his hands slid in the back of my neck and he moved his mouth to my neck. I heard the familiar sound of his breath getting heavier as his lips moved to the hollow beneath my ear.

He went back to kissing me, he seemed eager. Not the way he kissed Lauren or Tanya, but as if he'd been waiting for this.

I opened my eyes to see if I could catch an expression on his beautiful face. I saw one of his eyes and it looked relaxed-not angry or distracted. It's like he wanted this.

Like he wanted me.

A/N-There you have it!

The kiss that some of you have been waiting for.

Ohh it will get exciting from here.

I can't wait to write it!

But now I must sleep.

Two chapters in a day.

Nice.

Reviews? Maybe?

Yes, I would love them.
