Disclaimer: I do not own twilight. You should know.
A/N: Hey guys! Thanks for the reviews. I'm not sure if you'll like what I'll put in this, but that's just the way I roll! LOL! I won't delay you with my blabbering any longer……..

"Who's first?" I asked. He smiled a lopsided smile and pointed at me. "Okay, where were you born and raised?" he asked as he sliced a piece of salmon from his plate.
"Umm... I was born in Forks, Washington, which explains my very pale skin." I paused to take a bite of my salmon and take a sip of my water.
"Well I think it's lovely." I chocked on the water I was drinking and Edward quickly rushed over me to give me some napkins. "Are you okay?" he asked as he rubbed my back.
"Uh... yeah, thanks." I said as he retreated to his seat. "As I was saying….. Charlie, my father is the Chief police and my mother is psychiatrist. They separated when I was seven; I lived with my mother and his husband Phil till 2nd year High school. How about you?"
"I was born and raised here in Chicago. My mother and father got married young but turned out quite successful. I moved out when I studied in Massachusetts."
"Okay, my turn to ask the question." I said as he gestured me to speak.
"Go ahead." He continued eating while waiting for my question.
"Favourite colour?" I made a funny face and he laughed quite loudly.
"Brown." He replied looking at my eyes. I suddenly felt conscious.
"Yours?" he asked back.
"Green…it's…. The colour of your eyes." Shoot! Why did I have to open my mouth? I'm so stupid. I gave myself a mental slap on the forehead and surely I blushed.
Instead of the weird look, he gave me a sweet crooked smile.
"Thanks." He muttered. He glanced back at his food with a goofy smile and muttering something I couldn't understand. What's up with that?
I cleared my throat. "Can I ask another question?" Edward nodded
"What school do you attend to?" he suddenly shot his head towards me and looked at me like I was crazy.
"I attended Harvard Med." he said like it was nothing. I stared at him with wide eyes.
"Wow, you must be really smart." I flirted. I have no idea how to flirt or what so ever, but I guess Edward brings out new things in me.
"Nah, I may be, but one thing's for sure I'm not as artistic nor talented as you." I blushed at what he said.
"So, why aren't you drinking?" he asked, noticing that my glass wasn't touched. Well for the fact that I'm only sixteen, that's one.
"Cause I can't." I stated like it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"What do you mean you can't?" he asked while taking a sip. "Are you sick?" he added.
"No silly, I'm still underage." Now, it was his turn to choke on his beverage.
"What!" he exclaimed. "Why? Is something wrong?" I asked nervously, does he like older women? Maybe he dislikes someone younger than him….
"No uh. Actually. I'll just go wash up." He gestured to his shirt and I nodded. He stood up and walked towards the men's bathroom located inside the restaurant.
"What now?" I whispered to myself. What could possibly make him surprised like he was earlier? I slumped back on my seat and rested my hand on my forehead.
A minute later, Edward returned, the stain on his shirt now lighter. "Sorry I took so long." I smiled while he sat down.
"Look. I understand if you don't like girls like me." I said accepting the truth. It would be totally understandable if he leaves right this second, I guess…
"And what kind of girl are you exactly?" he joked.
"Ha-ha. Your so funny." I joked back which made him laugh a little.
"Well if you must know. I'm the kind of girl who draws when she's bored and hates shopping, especially for clothes."
"Well, I think you'll get along with Alice well." Edward pointed out.
"You think?" I said laughing.

"So, why aren't you drinking." I noticed her glass was still full.
"Cause I can't." she stated like it was the most obvious thing in the world. I instantly became worried. Is something wrong with her, sick maybe?
"What do you mean you can't" I took a sip of my drink, trying to relieve the tension. "Are you sick?" I added.
"No silly. I'm still underage." I felt the Alcohol rush up. "What!" it can't be.
"Why?" she asked with full curiosity. Oh god, I'm so dead… me a fully grown man, having a mutual understanding with an adolescent. Insanity.
"Why? Is something wrong?" she asked nervously.
Suddenly, I felt something wet on my shirt. And just what I suspected, there was a big stain of wine on it.
"No uh…….. Actually. I'll just go wash up." I gestured towards the stain, she nodded and I stood up, rushing towards the men's bathroom. I opened the door and locked it when I entered.
I quickly grabbed a towel and tried to lighten the stain, and to my dismay it was still there just a little invisible. I sighed and gave up. Bella is probably waiting for me outside. I decided to go back to our table.
"Sorry I took so long." I sat down and out of the corner of my eye I saw her smile.
"Look. I understand if you don't like girls like Me." she said suddenly. I was actually pretty shocked at what she said. Come on, who wouldn't want someone like Bella.
"And what kind of girl are you exactly?" I joked, trying to lighten the mood.
"Ha-ha. You're so funny." She joked back which made me laugh a little. I'm glad she's comfortable with me.
"Well if you must know. I'm the kind of girl who draws when she's bored and hates shopping, especially for clothes."
"Well, I think you'll get along with Alice well." I pointed out. I bet my sister will give her one of her black credit cards, and drag her to shopping sprees when she gets the chance.
"You think?" she said laughing. We continued eating in comfortable silence. I would sometimes glance her way and stare a little too long, and then she'll blush when I get caught.
I can't believe I'm sitting here with Bella. She looks too beautiful to be true, it was impossible to find anyone who can be a comparison to her. The dark room where we are sitting now illuminates her beauty even more, making her hair look silkier, if that was possible, and defined.
Sigh. I was just so surprised when she told me she was underage, I mean... Isn't that illegal? I'm already twenty eight and she can be around seventeen. But no matter what they say, I'll wait for her. Even if it takes years.
A/N: I am so sorry, if this wasn't up to your expectations. Things are getting a little hectic. Thanks for reading it anyway, even if it's screwed up. Ha-ha. Reviews please, encourage me with you kind or even mean words.
are you content with Edward's age? a little too old for your liking, well actually there is a lot of people who get married even if their ages are more than ten years apart. Bella is just too young that's all.
oh! and sorry if i have mistakes and whatsoever....
Till the next chapter. Adios
