Disclaimers to Stephenie Meyer/Tomoko Hayakawa.

Aw, sorry for not updating, it's the homework. Oh, and below is basic Trigonometry which I learnt like last year and I thought it might be a bit cool to add some of that stuff. Although, I prefer Algebra to Trigonometry, personally.

Oh, and I've been working on something new/different, which had me distracted.

--------------

"Auntie?" Bella whispered in disbelief.

"Honey," Auntie said, gliding over to Bella with her arms outstretched. Bella walked over to her Auntie. She looked dumbstruck.

"Your teacher rang me and I flew back here as soon as I could," Auntie said against Bella's hair. Bella felt the full weight of pressure and broke down. A single tear fell down her cheek. Then more tears continued to fall.

"What's wrong?" Auntie asked in a shocked voice. Bella didn't answer. She was so confused. She wiped the tears away, but more came trickling down.

"Bella?" Alice asked running forwards. Bella fell onto the floor. Her hands covered her face. Then she ran upstairs and everyone heard the door slam.

"Well, boys. I can see when I'm not welcome," Auntie said in voice that was too controlled. "I want Bella to pass her next Trigonometry exam, or else."

And with that the beautiful woman had left.

"Bella?" Carlisle croaked. He had spent 2 hours trying to coax Bella out of her room with Emmett. Their throats were raw. Edward and Jasper walked along the corridor.

"Still nothing?" Jasper asked.

"No," Emmett said, his voice barely a whisper.

"Bella?" Edward tried. There was a sob and then silence.

"Leave it to a professional," Alice said, pushing aside the boys.

"Bella, it's Alice. Can I come in?" Alice said. There was a silence.

"Yes," a weak cry from inside called. Alice raised an eyebrow at the boys and opened the door. Her first reaction was to scream, her second was to hug Bella. Alice stepped inside the dark and walked towards the mass in the middle of the room.

"Bella?" Alice said cautiously.

"How could I have done it?" Bella sobbed.

"Done what?" Alice asked. Alice knew what was coming.

"How could I have kissed Edward?" Bella said. Her voice cracked and more tears poured out. Edward blushed on the other side of the door. He made to move away but Jasper grabbed his arm.

"Was it that bad?" Alice said gently.

"No," Bella said.

"Then what's wrong?" Alice asked her, her hand extending to pat Bella's back.

"I...liked it," Bella sobbed, "I don't know how but somehow I liked it, and it's wrong, and I feel so guilty towards Auntie."

"It's natural to feel this way Bella," Alice said. Bella shook her head.

"Get Jasper in here now," Bella said, her voice no longer upset.

"Why?"

"Because I want to get more than Edward in this next Trigonometry test," Bella said, "That's the only way I'll forgive myself."

"Well then," said Edward on the other side of the door, "I'd better revise too, so she doesn't beat me."

"What is up with that?" Emmett asked.

"Dude, it's just a test, let her win so she doesn't feel bad," Carlisle said.

Edward raised an eyebrow.

"See you," he said turning around and running towards his room. He picked up his Trigonometry book and then looked over to his bed.

Revision could start tomorrow of course.

"Right, first of all, do you know the names of the sides of the triangle?" Jasper asked the next day. It was a Saturday and Jasper and Bella were sat at the dining room table.

"Yes," Bella said overconfidently. Jasper raised an eyebrow. There was an awkward silence.

"No," Bella finally squeaked. Jasper drew a simple right angled triangle.

"This is the hypotenuse," Jasper said pointing the diagonal line. Bella nodded.

"To calculate the hypotenuse you find the square of the other two sides and then add those two squares together. Then when you have your number you find the square root of that number."

"Huh?" Bella asked. It was bad enough having to go through this again, especially when you didn't understand it the first time. Jasper gritted his teeth. He sighed. This was proving harder than it was.

---------------

"Sohcahtoa? What is that?" Edward asked in disbelief. Edward and Emmett were sprawled on Edward's bedroom floor in a mass of books and papers. Carlisle sat cross-legged in front of them.

"The secret to finding angles on a triangle," Emmett said. Emmett chewed on his pencil. Edward had just fell asleep and had been prodded awake by Carlisle.

"What does it mean?" Edward said to Carlisle. Carlisle sighed.

"Sine equals opposite over hypotenuse, cosine equals adjacent over hypotenuse and tangent equals opposite over adjacent."

"WHAT?" Edward said. Edward yawned.

"Dude. If you want to beat Bella, you're going to have to actually revise." Emmett said aiming a playful punch at Edward. Edward glared at him.

-------------

"How about if you thought about it on Stephen?" Jasper coaxed.

"How?" Bella was upset that she wasn't getting anywhere

"If Stephen wore a sling to prop his arm up and let's say the length on his arm was 3 centimetres and below the elbow it was 4 centimetres, what would you have to add?"

"Um, 9 and 16 because they are the squares of 3 and 4?" Bella answered as well as she could.

"Exactly, so what is square root of 9 and 16 added together?" Jasper hinted.

"The answer is 25 and the square root of 25 is 5," Bella said quickly the answers reeling off her tongue, "So the hypotenuse would be 5 centimetres."

"Exactly!" Jasper said punching his arm in the air.

Jasper knew how to get Bella to get the answers.

------------

"So basically to get a ham sandwich you need to put ham in the bread," Carlisle said slowly.

"Duh," Edward said. Emmett had been dismissed as he had done so well.

"So to find the cosine of a triangle you put the value of the hypotenuse over the value of the tangent," Carlisle said.

"Like a sandwich?" Edward said. Edward's stomach purred.

"Yes."

"Oh. That's easy."

Edward grabbed a calculator and scribbled the answer to Carlisle's question on the paper.

"If only I'd figured this out earlier," Carlisle said, stunned.

--------------

Finally, everyone ate in the dining room.

"Bella's done so well, I think she'd ace Edward," Jasper bragged.

"I bet Edward's done better," Emmett said smirking. Jasper rounded on him.

"Want to bet?" Jasper said cocking his head.

"Deal. 100 bucks on Edward," Emmett said.

"100 bucks on Bella," Jasper said.

"Aw come on, don't be selfish you two," Carlisle complained. Jasper and Emmett hissed at Carlisle.

For the first time in a few days Bella looked up at Edward. To her surprise Edward was staring at her. Bella blushed and looked back down, and unable to resist she looked up again. Edward was still staring at her. It was hard not to get lost in those emerald eyes.

Edward found herself thinking about Bella in that way again. He wanted to lean over to the table and whisper something to her. Maybe she'd even lean over to him to listen to him. Then he'd brush back her hair. She'd blush and try to push his hand away. Edward would whisper sweet things and he's inch closer to her face. Edward would wind his fingers around her wrist and made sure she couldn't move. Then, ever so softly, he'd kiss her soft cheek.

"Edward?" Carlisle said. Bella wasn't sitting in front of him anymore. Instead Carlisle was looking at him. Edward shook his head and went straight to his room, passing Bella's room.

Maybe one day that fantasy would happen. Just maybe.
