Hello everybody! My little brother tore a ligament in his finger. Ouch. What's sad is that my family is so used to going to the doctors that some people recognize us and vise versa. I call it our second home. Sigh...I had this HUGE geometry test. We don't get the results for about A WEEK!! UGH!! AAGH!

OH MY GOSH! I got the SWEETEST review I have ever heard. So thank you. I literally almost hyperventilated. I gushed about it to all of my friends and family. I was so surprised and just thrilled. I was on cloud nine all day...(Well, a LOT longer than one day, actually) I'd like to thank ALL my reviewers. :D

DISCLAIMER: I DON'T OWN Thin Mints, Nightmare Before Christmas, Tinkerbell, or any Twilight things.

Previously:

My eyes flickered down to her luscious lips, as if a magnet pulled them there. I leaned forward, and she copied my movements. We were so close. Our breath intermingled. I tasted her strawberry scent. I licked my lips in anticipation.

The doorbell rang.

Chapter Three -EdwardPov

I groaned. We were so close. I was so close to her lips, so close to kissing her. So close.

Who could possibly be at my door? No one ever came over- no one. I haven't ever had anyone step foot into this house. The only people who had ever rang the doorbell were the pizza delivery guys. I didn't have neighbors; I lived just barely in the outskirts of town.

I reluctantly got off of the couch. I glanced back to Bella as I walked away. Her face was an adorable shade of red. Her gorgeous eyes were disappointed, and her lower lip pouted.

A sharp knock on the door startled me out of my admiration. "Hello?" I asked, swinging the door open. I was shocked to see a little girl. By little, I meant extremely tiny. She was by far the shortest teenager I had ever seen. The only sign that she wasn't a child was the subtle curve of her vest. She beamed at me, a grin stretched on her petite face.

"Would you like some Girl Scout Cookies, sir?" She asked me in a very bright voice. I then noticed the boxes under her arm. "Er, I'm not sure..." I nervously ran a hand through my hair. "Hold on." I was baffled. What did I do? I'd never had this happen to me before. "Bella?" I called, turning towards the house. "Would you like some Girl Scout Cookies?" I heard footsteps before Bella stood beside me.

"Hmm." She gently took a box from the girl's arm. "Chocolate mint?" She questioned. "Is it any good?"

"You've NEVER had Thin Mints?!" The girl squeaked in shock. We both shook our heads. "It is amazing! I'll give you a box for free if you buy the rest of these." She shook the other three boxes off cookies.

I exchanged a look with Bella. She nibbled her lip. "How much are they?" "Four dollars each." She answered promptly. "So twelve dollars. The fourth one is on me." "Why not?" I shrugged, pulling out my Jack Skellington wallet. The girl took out a Tinkerbell wallet. I handed her the cash, and she eyed my wallet with wide eyes.

"I'll trade you!" She offered, pointing to my wallet. "What??"

I laughed. "No thank you. I'm not the biggest fan of Tinkerbell." She scowled.

"Tinkerbell is awesome!!" She defended.

"Not for guys." I countered. "C'mon, honestly. Do I LOOK like I'd carry a sequined, bejeweled Tinkerbell wallet?"

Her eyes took me in, her mouth pressing into a thin line. "I guess not." She relented. "But, you can have all the money I have in it. AND you can keep your money. Just give me your empty wallet. Please?"

Her eyes grew wide and her lips trembled. Her hands were clasped together under her chin. My stubbornness faded.

"Fine." I grumbled. "Whatever." I pulled my money out of my wallet, as well as my license and school I.D.. She gasped, squealing loudly.

"OH, THANK YOU!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!" She jumped up and down. Bella giggled as she handed me the girly wallet, as well as the four boxes of cookies. "Bye..." She trailed off.

"Bella." Bella supplied. "And Edward."

"I'm Alice. Thank you so much!"

"What school do you go to, Alice?" Bella questioned, obviously curious.

"Oh, I'm home-schooled. As well as my brother, Emmett. But he is on Fork's football team."

"Cullen." I realized.

"Yes! Do you know him?" I shook my head, though it wasn't entirely true. We were forced to share gym lockers. But that's all I knew about him.

"Well, bye you two!" She smiled at us, waving. "Hope to see you soon!"

Bella waved shyly. "Good-bye, Alice." She called out warmly.

We retreated into the house. We sat back down on the couch, getting comfortable again.

I handed the wallet to Bella. "You can have this." I smiled at her fondly as she looked in disbelief.

"But she has your money in here!" She protested. I simply threw her an exasperated look. She opened it and gasped. "Oh my." She breathed. Then she pulled out a few hundred dollars. "Oh my."

"So, would you like a Thin Mint?" I asked her, "Or a...however you say this?" I shook the two boxes gently, one in each hand. The other two were on the glass coffee table infront of us.

She gave me an unbelieving look. "This has over three hundred dollars!!" She yelled. "How are you so calm?!?" I shrugged, grinning.
"Bella, dear, I BOUGHT this house. Do you think a few hundred dollars impress me?"

She looked embarrassed. "Oh."

"So?" I asked, gesturing to the packs of cookies. She laughed.

"Thin Mints." She decided. "I'm very curious now."

"Alright," I said, ripping the package open. I examined the strange cookie carefully. "Hmm. Do want to try it first?" She laughed. "Let's eat it at the same time." I made a face, and she giggled. "Honestly, where's you sense of adventure?"

"Fine." I picked one up carefully, as she did. She hooked her arm around my elbow. "Bite." She commanded, holding the cookie in front of my mouth. She opened her mouth to eat the cookie I held, which was now by her lips. We bit. And gasped. "EEEEWWWWW!!" I exclaimed as she cried out, "YUMMMM!!!!" We stared at each other in shock.

"That was awful." I informed her, gulping down the rest.

She released my arm and reached for another. "That was delicious." She argued. "Whatever. You can have the whole box."

"Yay!" She smiled, throwing her arms around my neck. "Thank you!" I wrapped my arms around her waist gently, not so discreetly pulling her closer.

"Where were we before we were so rudely interrupted?" I asked her, teasingly.

She grinned. "We were very close." She breathed, bringing her lips closer.

"Ugh!" I said, crinkling my nose and backing away. "You smell like Thin Mints now!"

She chuckled. "Oops. I probably taste like them too."

I shuddered. "Maybe we should kiss after you eat something else."

Bella stuck her tongue out at me, cookie crumbs still on it. "Too bad. These things are addicting. There's no way I'm saving these for later."

I rolled my eyes. "Yeah, whatever. No kisses for you." She frowned but otherwise didn't react, popping another into her mouth. I was captivated by the way her lips moved as she nibbled. I licked my own lips as she did, hers brushing away crumbs. I wanted to taste her lips, wanted it desperately, and I could hardly contain my urge.

I swiftly turned my attention to the television. The movie credits were scrolling down. I got up to switch movies. I picked out Titanic, a classic. I popped in the vhs and sat down in the couch again. Even though I had a dvd player and a Blue-ray player, I still preferred to watch the same vhs I had when I was a child.

"What are we watching?" Bella asked, still munching on the awful cookie. I rolled my eyes.

"Honestly, Bella? You want those disgusting things more than you want me?" My voice wounded insulted and wounded, but inside I was just amused and slightly irritated. Her eyes flashed to mine, and they narrowed.

"Oh, no. Nuh-uh. You're not guilt-tripping me. I like these Thin Mints, thank you very much!" She said, crossing her arms in front of her chest. Bad, Edward. Don't let your eyes linger there.

I groaned in both defeat and lust. "Bella, Bella, what am I going to do with you?" She laughed.

"Let me eat my Thin Mints!" I grumbled an incomprehensible response, causing her to laugh harder.

"You like to laugh, do yo?" I asked her casually. "Well, then, let's see how funny you think my suffering is after this!" I pounced on her, tackling her to the couch. She was still giggling. I frowned at her, and she chuckled nervously. I slowly slipped my fingertips across her bare foot, and her chuckle died as she squealed. I traced circles at a leisurely speed, and she gasped. Bella bit her lip to keep from laughing as I tickled her softly. My fingernails lightly grazed her heel, and she cried out. I began a siege of attacks on her feet, and she couldn't help but laugh hysterically.

"E-edward! St-top it-t! I-I'm going to p-pee my p-pant-ts! S-st-top-p!" She tried to plead.

"How funny is it now, Bella?" I demanded, barely concealing my own laughter.

"N-not funny, Edward! Not funny!!" She yelped. I only chuckled. "NOT FUNNY!!" She yelled, and my hands slowed down. My pinky finger traced her foot.

"How not funny is it?"

"Edward, it's really, really not funny." She sighed in relief. I placed my hands on both sides of her head.

"Why isn't it funny?" I breathed, and her eyes widened.

"I, er, it's not funny because...it's not?" She tried. I laughed lightly, and her eyes grew bigger as my breath hit her face.

"Do you think my unbearable pain is funny?" I asked, leaning closer.

She seemed confused. "Pain?" She asked in a dizzy voice.

"Oh, yes. Do you know how insufferable it is? To see you lick your lip, teasing me, flaunting that I can't," my voice went lower, deeper, more husky, as I leaned even closer to her. "kiss you? It's pure torture."

She shivered underneath me. Her eyes slipped down to my lips. "I hate to cause you pain." She murmured, her forehead leaning against mine.

"Then don't." I whispered, and I closed the distance.

My lips pressed softly against hers, and I loved the feeling of it, the taste of it. I could still taste her peppermint tea. Her lips parted under the pressure I put on them. I felt her run her slender fingers through my hair. Oh my. Her littlest finger tangled knots in my hair, and I moaned into her mouth. My arm held her waist, and as she threw her other hand around my neck, it rose. My breathing hitched as my arm came in contact the skin on the small of her back. I thrust my tongue into her mouth, enjoyed the vibration her groan sent to me, and brought her closer. She was my own personal definition of pleasure.

I twirled her dark hair around my finger, gently tugging her head closer. The scent of her hair- freesia and strawberry -lifted to my nose. It was mouthwatering. She broke away, gasping desperately for air. My lips traveled to her neck. They traveled the length of her throat, gliding up and down multiple times. I finally rested on her pulse point. I could feel her heart thumping against my lips. I let my tongue lightly trace her pulse, enjoying the way her heart sped up as I did so. My lips curled into a smile against her throat, against her soft skin.

I quickly hovered over her mouth, sweeping my tongue along her bottom lip. She fiercely trembled beneath me. She tightened her arms around my neck, trying to pull me closer. I slowly dragged my lips across hers, slowly, deliberately. She tugged at my hair passionately, and I at hers wildly.

I gently nibbled her tongue, trying to slip into my mouth.

"Nuh-uh." I said, grinning and breathless. "Feel my pain." I panted.

I leaned away, examining her face. There was the largest smile I had ever seen, her alluring lips pulled high. Her eyes were bright with excitement and love. Her cheeks were flushed a deep crimson, and her hair was a beautiful mess of tangles. I'm sure my hair looked much, much worse.

"I can completely understand your pain now." She huffed, trying to slow her breaths. She paused. "Did I taste like Thin Mints?" She asked, flushing cutely.

I laughed, rustling her hair. "No. You tasted delicious." I hesitated. "I felt a little piece of heaven from that kiss." I told her honestly.

"You, too? I thought it was only me..."

I chuckled. "Silly girl. Of course I felt that. You are my piece of heaven." I patted her head, brushing and smoothing her hair down. She flushed even deeper.

"You should see your hair." She muttered, while I grinned.

"I hope it's awfully messed up." I told her, smirking, before dropping my voice lower, "And if not, we should fix that." I leaned towards her again, but I halted as I heard a sound. She froze, hearing it.

"Why, aren't you popular today?" She teased as another pounding knock came from the door. I grudgingly stood up, leaving the warmth of her arms.

"The only times people come over are when I try to kiss you!" I complained. "Honestly, no one, and I repeat no one ever comes over. These are the first times in years. So WHY today?" I grumbled, heading to the door.

I swung the door open and cursed. If Bella was my personal heaven, he was my personal hell.

"Dad?" I asked furiously.

I love leaving you guys with cliffies. :D It's fun. Mwahahahaha. If you want to know what happens next, review. Review. :) What did you think of their kiss? I felt pretty good about it, but I'm not sure. What do you think? I'd like to know.... I'm nervous about this chapter. I felt because it was lacking song lyrics that it was lacking. But I didn't want them to use lyrics in this chapter. Your opinion?

And in other news, who has seen the New Moon Trailer?? Anyways, I guess it was, I dunno, AWESOME! Jacob seemed well muscled. AND THEY FIXED JASPER'S HAIR!!! I am SOOO happy for that. It doesn't look like it can attack people now. During the part where Edward pushed him away from Bella, and Jasper hit the piano, I laughed. My only thought was, "Wow, Edward, smart move. You just destroyed your own piano!" I thought the wolf wasn't as terrifying as it should have been- it was adorable. Other than those things, I am sure this will end okay...or not. My guess is not. But I'm an optimistic person. Maybe THIS directer won't ruin the movie. And they might add some other colors besides green and blue.....

I think tickling scenes are cute, but this will be the last tickling scene for a while. I don't want it to get over-used. So don't worry. And no, they won't get interrupted every time. Just most of the time. *Laughs* I'm evil, I know. But I'm joking.
