AN: Sorry this chapter is so short, I've been suffering from major writers block all night and day!


Chapter 2 The Cat

"Bella?"

"Bella, are you asleep?"

"Garr" I grumbled as I opened my eyes slightly to see my intruders face only inches from mine.

"AHHHHH" I screamed "Edward what the hell are you doing?" I shouted.

"Well, it's 7 in the morning and you said you had to get up early so, I thought I'd wake you up!" He stated with a smile.

"Oh yeah!" I exclaimed "My really important thing is today!"

"What thing?" Edward asked.

I looked at him trying to make up some excuse to leave "Well...you see...I have this cat...and well I left it at my crazy aunts house for a year because...um...IT'S RETARTED!" I blurted out "and well you see my crazy aunt can talk to cats so she's trying to make it less...um...retarded." I finished.

Edward looked at me like I had four eyes "so you're saying that you have a retarded cat that's with your crazy aunt who's trying to fix it?"

"Um...yeah and I have to go pick it up because it died!" I stuttered out.

"It died?"

"Yeah it died." I said with a sad expression "So I'm going to go take it to a funeral home so I can...um... burry it." I looked up at Edwards face to see if he even believed a word of my bull shit.

"Well...um...Okay well then I'll make you some toast or something and you can take a shower if you want and...well...then I guess you should go pick up your retarded, dead cat?" Edward struggled to fit the words together.

"Sounds great!" I said while hopping out of bed. I quickly headed for the bathroom and closed the door behind me.

His bathroom was simple a tub in the corner, a sink on the left, toilet on the back wall but, it was all I needed. I made my way over to the tub/shower thinger and turned on the water, letting it run for a while before I got in.

As I let the warm water run over me I got to thinking...'MAN I AM BITCH' I mean Edward is usually a total jack ass but, right now for once in his life he's acting like he kind of gives a fuck about someone other than himself. Here I am making up loser excuses to get away from him. I mean god was I five or something.

As I pondered these things I heard a loud CRASH from the kitchen.

"Ah Fuck!!!" I heard Edward yell from the kitchen.

I quickly jumped out of the shower and grabbed a towel from the hook. I ran into his kitchen clad only in a fuzzy blue towel and saw Edward kneeling picking up pieces of what looked like a toaster.

"Oh wow, what happened here?" I asked. Edward looked up at me with a sad expression, then it turned to shock. He quickly stood up and turned bright red.

"Um...well I was making toast and then my foot got caught on the cord and it went flying onto the floor." He confessed.

"Oh, well at least you're not hurt." I said relieved.

We stood there staring at each other for a minute, when he finally spoke "Um, Bella?" he asked.

"Yeah?" I answered a little confused.

"Do you think you could get dressed or something because no offense or anything but it's a little awkward having a naked girl standing in my kitchen."

"Oh!" I huffed "Oh yeah I totally forgot I wasn't dressed, I'll go put something on!" I yelled as I ran away.

I quickly ran to his room and threw on my close from the night before. I looked in the mirror and saw that my hair was completely untameable so I tied it back into a simple pony tail. When I thought I looked semi descent I walked back out to the kitchen where I saw Edward picking up the ruminants of his little toaster.

"Better?" I asked.

He looked up from sweeping and gave me a smile "Well nothings better then a naked girl but, now maybe we can have a non awkward conversation."

I smiled "So..." I started "I should probably go get my cat now." I said with sadness in my voice.

"Oh yeah your cat." He said with a smile.

I turned around and headed for the elevator, I pushed the call button. When it arrived I stepped into it and turned around and saw Edward standing just outside the doors.

I thanked him and told him I'd see him at work the next day and, just when i thought things couldn't get any more awkward he said "Bella I'm sorry I kissed back."

Then, the doors closed.


AN: Okay well I know this chapter was short and kind of confusing but I already started writing the third chapter and it's sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much better!
