I knew Edward was trying to look excited, but he was still a little upset. "You know we both got accepted to the University of Seattle. We can go there. Our parents would love that." I said quietly.

As soon as the thought left my mouth he was shaking his head. "No way Bells. You've always wanted to go to Cornell. You should go even if I didn't get in."

I frowned. I didn't want to go with out him. I knew he would keep insisting I should go so I decided to go home and make dinner and thing about all of this. "I need to go tell Charlie. See you at seven for dinner?" I asked. We always ate at each others houses on Fridays.

He nodded and went into his closet. I sighed wishing I could help. I walked down the stairs to find Alice and Jasper watching TV. They were literally the perfect couple. Alice is tiny and energetic, while Jasper is tall, strong, and calm. Jasper goes to the University of Seattle with his twin sister who is dating my older bear of a brother, Emmett.

"Are Rose and Emmett still in Seattle?" I asked.

Jasper looked up smirking. "No Emmett wouldn't miss out on your cooking for anything. They were putting there bags in your house but hat was, " he looked at his watch. "half an hour ago."

I groaned knowing what they were doing. I swear they remind me of rabbits sometime. Not wanting to stay here an ruin the romantic vibe coming off of Jasper and Alice and not wanting to find my brother groping his girlfriend in the halls of my house, I went to the park a couple of blocks down.

As I walked threw the light mist I thought about college. I should probable tell Jake I got into Cornell. Jake is my sorta-boyfriend. Our Dad's were best friends before we were born so he would have been my best friend had the Cullen's not moved in next door to us. Jake lived out on the La Push reservation so I didn't get to see him a lot. But we so much chemistry. We could talk for hours and not get bored.

At least we use to. He's a year younger than me, so when I started talking about going to college with Edward he wasn't to happy. They never liked each other. I don't know why. Guys can be strange sometimes. I pulled out my phone and called Jake, just wnating someone to talk too.

"Hullo?" he sounded like I'd woken him up.

"hey Jake, It's Bella. I was just wandering what you where up too."

"Oh. Well, not much. Just homework and stuff. A few friends are coming by to help me with the car."

"Oh. How's that going?" we carried on like that for about twenty minuets befre I got the courage to tell him about my acceptance. I don't know why I didn't want to tell him.

"Guess what I got today?" I asked trying to sound cheery.

"What?" he asked at the sudden change of subject.

"I got my acceptance letter from Cornell" I said trying to sound excited.

Jake was silent for a minuet. "So your going to New York with Cullen then" he suddenly got louder. "You know what, I've tried to be supportive. I know your leaving in the fall, but I thought you might want to try a long distance thing. I guess I was wrong!"

I was stunned. Jake never yelled at me. "Jake, I'm sorry I thought you'd be happy for me." I said quietly. I knew I shouldn't have called him.

"You want me to be happy you're leaving me and running off with Cullen. Emmett said you were going to share an apartment with him. How could I be happy about that?"

"Well-" Jake cut off her "Don't try to deny it. I see the way he looks at you. He's in love with you! Everyone else sees it! Why can't you?" he continued yelling.

"Jake!" I said frustrated, we'd been over this a hundred times. "Of course he loves me. He's my best friend. We've grown up together!"

He sighed, sounding resigned. "It's more than that. He looks at you the same way your brother looks at the blonde or the same way the other Cullen looks at Jasper. It's always been that way. Why do you think we never worked out." he added the last part in a mumble.

That pushed me over the edge. I may be small but , boy do I have a temper. "Don't you go and blame our relationship problems on Edward. If you weren't so jealous we would have been fine!"

"I just didn't think you should be staying over at his house when you where dating me!" he fired back, clearing pissed.

"Look. I just wanted to call and tell you I got into the college I wanted. Not argue over something stupid!" I shut the phone before I could get even madder. (I don't think thats a word , but whatever) I starred down at the picnic table I'd ended up at.

Jake always thought there was more to Edward and I then there really was. I admit I had a crush on Edward all threw elementary and middle school. But when we got into high school I realized exactly how many other girls had a thing for him and how little my chances at getting him were. I gave up and tried to date other guys. Alice always told me he liked me but I never took her seriously.

I sat there thinking about all the what ifs, and possibilities. I knew deep down Jake was write, I did still have a crush on Edward. Hell if I was being totally honest with myself, I was in love with him. But I knew no matter what, he didn't feel the same way.
