AN – I thought I might as well write another chapter while I'm waiting for my nephew to be born so here it is. I'm considering changing the title of this story... any suggestions?

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

I woke up on Sunday morning with the light streaming through the window making the insides of my eyelids look red, it warmed my face and I smiled. I hugged him closer to me but there was nothing there. My eyes flew open and I was alone in Rosalies spare bedroom. I hadn't gone to sleep alone. Sitting upright the memories from last night came flooding back to me. He'd left me sitting on that bench gobsmacked for about an hour. I didn't speak to anyone I just sat there thinking. Thinking about the way Edward never failed to make me blush when he looked at me for just too long. The way all the hairs on my body stood on end everytime he touched me, it was as if there was an electric current running through my whole body. The way when he kissed me just then, I felt as if I was flying through the air. My stomach did a funny clenching thing and my heart fluttered. I thought about those green eyes and the terrible things they made me think about. I'd never felt like this before. I'd had a few boyfriends, my best friend since we were 5, Jacob Black, was my first kiss. He finally plucked up the courage to ask me out the day before my 14th birthday. He'd kissed me and all I can remember was it being warm and wet and 'icky'. We were together until we were 17. I never had this feeling about him. I guess we'd always thought of each other as friends and nothing more, we weren't really boyfriend and girlfriend, just best friends who'd kissed 3 times and mistaken our feelings for love. I'd always laughed at people who claimed teenagers didn't fall in love but I guess they were right. I didn't love Edward, but there was a piece of my heart that was ready for him, waiting to let him show me what love really was.

I wiped a big fat tear from my cheek. I hadn't spoken to Jacob since I left the U.S. He'd helped me pack, pulling me into a hug so tight I thought my ribs would break, kissing me on the forehead and saying.

"I know you Isabella Swan and I know you're hurting like hell. I also know you too well to bother trying to talk to you til you're ready. You phone me Bellend, I'll be here waiting."

Edward came back. He sat back on the bench and brushed the hair from my face. Looking deep into my eyes as if he was trying to read my soul, I felt lost in him.

"I'm sorry I left, I'm not used to feeling like this. I guess I've never really had feelings for a girl it's always just been about sex." He must have seen the pain in my eyes because he pulled my face back to his. " What I meant is, you deserve a million fucking times better than that and I want to give it to you. Hell Bella I'm whipped. There's something about you that draws me in and I don't know what it is but I really fucking like it."

I felt the tears rolling down my cheek.

"I didn't mean to upset. Oh God Bella, look I can leave again if you want I mean..."

I cut him off as I placed my lips against his. My stomach was doing somersaults as I felt his hands on either side of my face. He stroked my cheeks with his thumbs. I led him to the guest bedroom and we lay on the bed in each others arms. We didn't need to say anything. We each knew how the other felt. I fell asleep there in Edward Masen's arms. Man was Jessica Stanley gonna be pissed at me.

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

When Alice said we were going to the movies I didn't expect the interrogation I got on the way there.

"So what's going on with you and Edward then huh?"

"Excuse me?" I don't know why I bothered pretending, she would get the truth outta me whether I liked it or not. I tried to forget the fact that he'd left that Sunday morning without waking me up to let me know, the fact he also hadn't looked at me since and it was now Thursday night, four weeks later. He hadn't come to lunch with us. He'd told Jasper he needed to practice. Which was utter bollocks, the boy could play piano better than Beethoven and he knew damn well. I'd tried to hide the fact this upset me but Alice had seen right through it.

"I saw you kiss him Bella and he hasn't acknowledged your existence since, he's hardly spoken to any of us either."

"Actually he kissed me and well yeah."

"You know Bella, with your ability to provide a convincing argument, you'd make a fine politician."

I probably should have laughed, she was making a joke after all but nothing much seemed funny when he wasn't around.

"Look seriously Bells, what's going on? Everytime he walks past it looks as if you're going to break down on the spot, you've got everyone worried, hell Emmett couldn't eat his lunch yesterday. Something about not being able to stomach food when someone had taken the smile from a little ones face."

"He, I. Fuck it. It doesn't matter."

"No Bella, it does." We were practically at the cinema now. I wondered if I could hold out on her til we got there, then she'd forget. "I have a hard time seeing my best friend upset." I sighed.

"He told me he liked me okay? I realised just how much I like him, it's as if a piece of me was missing til I met him. Then he fucking left. He fucking left me there, didn't say goodbye and he hasn't even fucking looked at me since." I couldn't stop the tears, they were falling thick and fast. "I don't know what happened Alice. I don't know what I did, but somehow I really fucked it up."

"You need to talk."

She said nothing else on the subject.

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

We entered the cinema, I went to buy popcorn while Alice got our tickets, when we met outside the toilets she was holding four tickets. I raised an eyebrow at her but then shook my head. She probably had some strange reason why she thought we'd need an extra ticket each and I wasn't going to question her.

"Bella lets go to the bar, I fancy a drink and we've got half an hour before it starts." She grabbed my hand and pulled me across the entrance area. She called the barman over and looked at him with smouldering eyes. He leant his hands on the bar and stared at Alice as if she was the only woman on earth. He was tall, skinny and spotty. I felt sorry for the poor guy, he can't have been 2 years older than us and Alice was seriously messing with him. Taking his hand in hers, she rubbed circles in his palm with her index finger.

"Hi, what's your name?" She even had a sexy voice on, it was very hard not to giggle.

"I.. erm .. A .. A .. A..." He showered Alice in saliva, trying to get his words out before pointing to his namebadge.

"Adam hey?, that's a cool name. Um do you think you could get me and my friend here a couple drinks?" She gestured towards me, I leant my head to one side and, licking my lips, gave him a finger wave. Well if Alice could do it, I could at least try. He nodded rapidly and I wondered for a fraction of a second if it'd fall off should he nod any harder. Alice bit her lip. Then she motioned for him to come closer before whispering in his ear. Adam had trouble breathing after that and swiftly went about getting our drinks, spilling most of them due to his shaking. I laughed and went to grab a table. Alice followed 5 minutes later with a tray of 2 gin and tonics and 2 pints of lager. Again with the extras.

"What did you say to him? The poor guy nearly spunked all over the bar."

"I asked him for our drinks, then told him I wasn't wearing any underwear." I took a sip of my drink at the beginning of that sentence but it ended up on the table rather than my throat.

"Alice that's terrible, the poor guy." I couldn't refrain it any longer I burst into hysterics, everyone else in the bar stared at me and Alice like we were crazy people. Then I heard it.

"Seriously, the tickets will sell out if we don't get them now. It's really not like you to be more concerned with drinking than a good film."

I knew that voice and it suddenly dawned on me why Alice had been getting extras. I couldn't believe my ears. I never thought she'd been capable of pure evil til now. I threw her the angriest, shocked and hurt face I could muster up. I wanted to curl up in a ball and cry until my eyes ran dry.

I saw them turn the corner and then he saw me, he gave Jasper the same look I'd given Alice. They joined our table but Edward just stared at the floor. He had the face of a little boy who'd been told he wasn't getting a fucking scalextric for Christmas. I wanted to slap him across the face. I wanted him to feel what I'd felt for the past fucking month. Worthless. He'd lied to my face, he didn't want me, he never had. He was fucking with me. Fucking me up. If I was honest with myself though, I wanted nothing more than to hold him close to me. The boy looked a mess, nearly as bad as I did. I wanted to comfort him, wanted to make him happy again. His yes weren't their normal shade of green, they seemed dark, almost black. I wanted to fix that.

I looked to Edward who was still staring at the floor. I reached for his chin and lifted his face til his eyes were level with mine. He directed his eyes every way but at me. I furrowed my brow and waited for him to look at me. Catching him I tried to hold his gaze but failed, he closed his eyes and sighed. I looked around to Alice and Jasper for help but they'd gone leaving two tickets on the table.

"Edward?"

He opened his eyes slowly.

"Bella I, don't know what to say I..."

I kissed him, not as gently as before. I'd needed to kiss him since the morning after Rosalie's party. I needed to feel wanted, selfish I know but it was him who fucked me up. I was surprised when he kissed me back with perhaps more force than I was using. I broke away from the kiss.

"Bella I thought... you'd been drinking. I thought you only kissed me 'cos it's what I wanted. You never said anything..."

I stared into the black pools that his eyes had become and smiled.

"Edward Masen. I really fucking like you too."

He kissed me again, more careful this time like he didn't want to break me. I could feel him smile against my lips. I pulled away and kissed his nose before he leant his forehead against mine. Breathing deeply, the words fell from his mouth.

"Isabella Swan, be my girlfriend?"

A huge smile erupted across my face, I couldn't stop it.

"Of course."

We were still there, kissing and cuddling and smiling at each other when Alice and Jasper came out from their film. She squealed and ran over to us. Pulling me into a hug that could match Jacob's she literally screamed.

"I knew it would work, I told you Jazz. Oh My God I'm so happy."

"Watch it Brandon, I haven't forgiven you yet." Edwards hands took hold of my hips pulling me into his lap.

"Bella, c'mon. You know I was right." Edward began planting little kisses on my neck. Oh god I'd never felt this before. I blushed a truly vibrant shade of red. I could feel myself beginning to sweat and there was a strange feeling in my ... my ... there. Thankfully Alice pulled me up again. She was incredibly strong for such a tiny person. I had to forgive her now, she'd saved me.

"Whatever." She grabbed me for another hug. I was ecstatic and I knew right then I could phone Jake.

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

I grabbed the home phone, if I was making a long distance call I certainly wasn't paying for it. Rushing up the stairs I nearly tripped twice. Fucking flipper feet. Thank God for cordless phones though. This was one call I didn't want Charlie to hear.

Was Jake ever going to answer? Then I realised the time difference. Shit. Too late.

"Hello?" A groggy voice answered the phone.

"Aaw shit Billy I didn't wake you did I?"

"Don't worry Bells, it's good to hear your voice, I'll go tell Jake to get his lazy ass out of bed."

"No Billy wait .." It was no good. Billy had already placed the phone on the worktop, he on the other hand did not have a cordless. Billy was Jacob's dad and Charlie's best friend but they hadn't spoken since just after Charlie left for England, something to do with Sue Clearwater.

"Bellend?" I could hear Billy in the background. "Jake, quit calling her after a part of the male anatomy, respect your woman son." I couldn't help but laugh, it felt so good to hear his voice.

"Hi Jake, it's good to hear you."

"Yeah you too Bella, I've been missing you." he yawned.

"God, I'm sorry. I just. You know. What time is it there?"

"Yeah its cool, no biggie, I get it Bells, believe me I do. 3am."

"Fucking hell I'm sorry, look I'll ring you back later or something."

"God Bella, watch your language." He laughed. "The Brits are known for their pottymouths, I guess they're rubbing off on you huh?"

"Jacob Black, how dare you question who's rubbing off on who." I pretend scolded him. I wish he could be here too. "Oh god you need to meet these guys! You'll love Emmett. He's hilarious and his girlfriend Rosalie. So hot. Seriously if I was gay... Then there's Alice, she's a freaky little weirdo but her hearts in the right place and her boyfriend Jasper, he doesn't really say much but then..."

I felt a little weird telling Jake about Edward, I mean he technically was my ex boyfriend and I shouldn't be flashing off my new one at him but me and Jake had an understanding didn't we? We knew what we had wasn't right, we were just friends. So why did I feel wrong talking to him about Edward?

"Bells you there? You stopped mid sentence."

"Yeah sorry, zoned out. Umm yeah there's this guy, Edward. We're sort of. Um. Together."

He paused. I knew I shouldn't have told him about Edward.

"Sounds like your having fun." I could hear the pain in his voice, it hurt to think I'd upset my best friend who was a million miles away and I couldn't give him a hug and make it go away.

"Jake? I really wish you were here." My voice cracked and the tears started to fall. I really fucking missed Jacob.

AN Hope you liked that one. I kind of lost my line of thought at the end, I had a call from my mum, my nephew was born and I got a bit excited.

Anyway, this is my longest chapter yet. I look forward to reviews and things, they mean a lot to me. Don't forget suggestions for a new title either. THANKYOUUUUUU!!!!
