A New Beginning

Chapter Twelve:

I hugged them both for climbing into my car; it was going to be a long evening.

It suddenly started raining a lot harder on the way home, I was really starting to miss the sunshine, and I would never miss the rain, ever. Luckily it had almost stopped raining by the time I got home. I had started calling it home now, that's what it was anyway, and I might as well get used to it.

Charlie and Leo still weren't home. I got inside the house, without getting too wet and started cooking dinner. I had been home about 30 minutes when I heard Charlie come inside, the first thing I noticed was that Leo hadn't come running inside, this made me slightly worried. I looked over to Charlie and saw him carrying Leo, who was sound asleep.

"Hey Bells."

"Hey Dad…" Why was Leo asleep? Had Charlie made him run laps or something today? "Why's Leo sleeping?"

"Because he's tired…" Really? Because you know, I sleep when I'm wide awake. Maybe I had asked a stupid question to begin with.

"What did you make him do? Run laps or something?" I was trying to see the funny side, but Charlie looked guilty. "What did you do, Dad?"

"Leo might have had chocolate…" I just laughed.

"He is allowed it, Dad. It's okay. You don't need to look like you're confessing to a murder or something."

"Haha. It just made him a bit hyper, which made him run around a lot. He fell asleep on the way home."

"You better wake him up, otherwise he won't sleep tonight."

Charlie walked into the living room and put Leo on the couch, he still didn't wake up. I went and sat down on the couch with him, whilst dinner was cooking.

"Leo, wake up baby." I whispered. Leo yawned hugely before waking up.

"Momma?"

"Hello." I smiled at him. He sat up and hugged my arm.

"Hi, Momma. I missed you." Aww.

"I missed you too, baby." I kissed his forehead and went and got dinner ready.

After dinner, Leo was in the living room again watching "The Tigger Movie". I sat down with him and started doing my homework.

I was doing my math homework when I looked at the TV and saw that the movie was at the bit that makes me cry. It's the bit where Tigger realises he doesn't actually have a Tigger family. Damn Disney!

"Momma, why are you crying?"

"I'm not." My voice broke and I sniffed giving myself away. I heard Charlie laugh at me, I just glared at him.

Leo hugged me. "Don't cry, Momma. It's all good in the end."

I eventually stopped crying and went back to my math homework, which I eventually finished.

By the time I had finished my math homework, Charlie was watching some sports game on the TV, Leo was watching it too, but didn't look particularly interested.

"Come on Leo, time for bed." It was 7.00pm now. How long had I spent on my math homework? I needed to get some help with that.

I picked Leo and up and said good-night to Charlie. I took Leo upstairs and gave him a quick bath before putting his pyjama's on and putting him to bed.

"Night Leo. I love you."

"Night-Night Momma. I love you too." He yawned hugely at the end. How he could still be tired, I'll never know.

--

I woke up early Friday morning. Well I think it was early. I sat up and checked my alarm clock, 6.30?! I decided I had better get up, so I got out of bed and went in the shower. As it was so early I was in the shower a good 20 minutes, I was never normally in the shower this long, but I had time.

I climbed out of the shower and dried my hair before getting dressed.

I went back into my bedroom and got some clothes out for Leo, who was still asleep; just as I went to go and wake him up he yawned and woke up himself.

"Morning Leo."

"Hi Momma." He yawned again.

I picked Leo up and put him on my bed; I quickly dressed him and put his shoes on.

"Thank You Momma!" Leo was already half – way down the stairs by the time he said this. I laughed and followed him.

"Morning Bells." Charlie was reading the paper, already.

"Hi, Dad." I got Leo some breakfast and sat down at the table as well. It was still too early for me to eat. "Hey Dad?" Charlie looked at me.

"Yeah Bella?"

"Try to make him so hyper today." Charlie just nodded at me and then told Leo they had better be going.

"Bye Momma." Leo quickly hugged me before going off with Charlie.

"Bye, Leo." He waved at me before going outside.

Its okay, Bella. It's the weekend tomorrow. Oh snap! That reminded me, what was I actually doing tomorrow? I suppose I was finding out today…

I stood up from the table and ran upstairs and brushed my hair and then my teeth. I ran back downstairs but knowing me I slipped on the bottom step and landed on my butt again.

"Ouch" I stood up and brushed myself down before going into the kitchen and grabbing a cereal bar. I checked the time on the oven. 8.00Am. Crap, better get going. I grabbed my stuff and my car keys before going outside.

It was raining, again. Surprise, surprise.

I got into my car and drove to school; it was cold in my car, again. But I was at school before the heaters had even started working.

I parked next to Jess' car and climbed out. Jess and Angela were stood by her car, under an umbrella, again.

"Stupid rain." I growled as I stood in a puddle on my way round to see Jess and Angela.

"Morning Bella." They both said together. How did they do that?

"Hiya." I smiled at them.

"So, finding out about your date today then Bella?" Jess giggled.

"Shut up! I doubt it, he probably decided not too." Jess stopped laughing and gave me an evil look.

"You know he's going to ask you out Bella." I smiled.

"Maybe. Now either let me under your umbrella so I stop getting wet or can we go to class?"

"Let's go to class."

All three of us walked into school and then said bye to Angela, before Jess and me walked into English and sat down. About half – way into the lesson, Jess passed me a note.

Bella, make sure you tell me everything, that happens in Biology today. Like I wouldn't tell her, I wasn't that stupid.

You know I will I'm too scared of you to not tell you. I passed the note back, Jess giggled.

Good. I didn't reply again. The rest of English went pretty slow. Our teacher was here today, but we didn't do much work. I guess she still felt ill or whatever.

"What did you do last night, Bella?" Jess asked me on our way to the cafeteria.

"Homework, and I sort of watched a film with Leo last night. You?"

"Cool. I just did my homework really." She smiled. I didn't believe her.

"Really?" Jess blushed. "Spill."

"What? That's what I did. Homework." She giggled.

"If you won't tell me, I'll just ask Angela." This made Jess think again.

"Fine, I met up with Mike…" We were in the Cafeteria now.

"What?!" Maybe I said that a bit loud, it was too noisy in there for people to hear me anyway. "That like breaks our deal, you cheater!" We were at the table now.

"I know Bella, sorry." She looked upset.

"You should be. Cheater! You just couldn't resist it could you?"

"You found out then?" Angela asked me. I just nodded.

"I'm not mad at you Jess. It's just we had a deal!"

"Sorry Bella." I hugged her.

"I told you I wasn't mad." I laughed. Jess hugged me back.

Lunch was really fast, maybe it was just because it was Friday.

Jess, Angela and Me walked to Biology.

"Tell me everything, Bella. Everything." I laughed.

"I already told you I would, didn't I?" Jess just walked off laughing. "See you in Gym!"

"Have fun, Bella…" Angela giggled as she walked off to her own desk.

"Shut Up, Ange." She just giggled even more.

Edward was already at our desk when I sat down.

"What was that about?" He must have been referring to Angela giggling so much.

"Just my friends being horrible to me." I pouted slightly. Edward laughed. "Did you get here early today?" I laughed this time.

"I didn't need to get detention or something, did I?"

"Well, not really I suppose." Oops. Maybe I just made him mad. Edward laughed.

"I didn't think it would go down well, me being late two days in a row."

"Not really." I blushed.

We didn't say much for the rest of the lesson. Maybe he was that scared about getting in trouble. That's kinda cute.

It was almost the end of the lesson, when Edward spoke to me again.

"Did you make plans for tomorrow?"

"No. Y-You told me not too." I looked at him and he winked at me. I instantly regretted looking at him.

"Good. Do you sleep in on Saturdays?" What kinda question was that?

"No. I have a child that wakes up at about 7am every single day. I don't get to lie in." I laughed.

"Okay. I'll pick you up at about 9am then." Hey?

"Did you just ask me out, Edward? And what are we doing anyway?"

"Yes I did, and it's a surprise." He winked at me again. That boy had to stop doing that!

I blushed again. "Okay."

The lesson finished there, "See you tomorrow Bella."

"Bye.." He walked away.

My heart was actually doing flips, I was also smiling hugely. I stood up from the desk and walked to the door. Angela was already stood there smiling as well.

"Someone looks happy." She giggled.

"Just a bit." I blushed again. "But you're going to wait, I'm not telling it twice."

We walked to Gym and I explained what happened to Angela and Jessica.

Jess squealed. "I told you!" She hugged me.

"You know nothing has actually happened yet right?" I wasn't very optimistic that something would happen anyway.

"Oh, but it will." Angela said. Jess just giggled.

"Maybe." I blushed.

"See! You want something to happen!" Jess squealed again.

"Fine! I do, and stop squealing like that! It's awful!" I laughed.

Gym was slow, again. Math went pretty fast, for a change. Everybody was pretty hyper as it was Friday. I had to admit, I was pretty excited for the weekend as well.

I was just about to say bye to Jess & Angela when Jessica reminded me.

"Tell us everything, Bella." She glared at me.

"When?"

"Just ring us up or something! You cannot expect us to wait until Monday!" Jess looked shocked.

"Sure. I'll call you or something tomorrow, okay!"

"Good. See you Monday Bella!" Jess and Angela hugged me.

"Bye Bella. Have fun tomorrow!" Angela giggled.

"I will! Bye.."

I climbed into my car and started driving home. I had no idea what to expect tomorrow, but that's what made me even more excited……
