Well weeks have pasted and I've spent a lot of time getting to know Edward. I know his likes dislikes, favorite food, and how he's allergic to apples. But for some reason he always dodges my questions about what happened before he moved here. I guess I have to give him more time.

I hope he learns to trust me more.

We just started reading Romeo and Juliet. We are at the very beginning where Romeo is whining to his friends about how he loves Rosalyn but she doesn't love him back. I sit right next to Mike, we've been on friendly terms in class but outside class we hardly talk at all. He's reading Romeo's part out loud after he finishes he looks at me "Oh, I know how Romeo feels."

He looks directly at me. Huh? Why is he acting like that?

First of all I thought it was a mutual brake-up. He seemed happy that we weren't going on because now he's with Jess. I don't understand. I'm a little bit upset but I won't let it bother me too much.

Finally Lunch

I'm sitting with Edward talking about the next history assignment when I see Lauren and Angela pass by our table. For some reason I can't help but look at my ex-best friends. Sometimes I miss them, sometimes I'm angry at them, sometimes I'm just confused as to why the whole situation happened.

Lauren and Angela look at me and smile, as if nothing is wrong between us. I don't get the. The situation is so stupid yet I can't seem to say sorry for something that wasn't my fault.

Edward looks at me, he knows I'm thinking about the situation. He squeezes my hand and says "Don't worry about them, its Friday we should go see a movie afterschool," with a cute smile and a dimple on his cheek.

I smile and say "Yeah, I heard Emmett talking about that new Star Trek movie, we should see it."

"Yeah, cool. I'll be right back." He says looking across the room; he gets up and walks to Lauren's table.

I see Lauren taken aback by whatever Edward is saying to her. Does he like her? What is he saying, ugh I can't hear them. Tyler stands up and says something, but I can't hear from where I'm sitting.

"Don't do anything stupid.."

I'm walking towards Lauren's table.

"Lauren, stay far away from Bella." She looks at me like I'm on crack or something

"Excuse me, what are you talking about." She asks.

"She's not your friend anymore, so stop terrorizing her. Just leave her alone, she doesn't need you anymore. You're a horrible friend. And Angela…" she looked up at me terrified.

"You're a really bad friend; you just left her when she needed you. I thought that after all she's told me about you, you would have been there for her. But I guess you let Jessica manipulate you into thinking Bella was a bad friend. Wow, I didn't think you were that shallow, but some times I'm wrong." With that I walked away. I heard Angela's tears and her sobs, but I didn't feel sorry for what I said. It was all true. I didn't like the way they treated Bella. She has been kind to me ever since I got here, she deserves better friends. I hope I can be a better friend for her.

I go back to the table and sit next to Bella.

"What did you say to them?" she asked

"Nothing that didn't need to be said" I told her

"Well, whatever you said, thank you" she smiled

Across the table are Rosalie and Emmett. Rosalie gives me a curious glance, then turns back to Emmett.

The bell rings, now its off to Biology, where I get to spend more time with Bella. Sometimes we talk about the most randomist things. Like what the plastic things at the end of shoe laces are called. And we can joke about Star Wars for hours. I've never met someone who likes Star Wars as much as me, except for Tanya…

'You don't get to say her name anymore' a voice inside my head said.

"haha Edward, I love you. You know that right?" is what Tanya used to say…

I hope she's okay…

"Edward what are you thinking about…" Bella asked as we sat down n class

"You." I lied, she smiled.
