Chapter 2: My Best Friend's Girl
Last night was awful. The whole time I couldn't tear my eyes away from Bella and my imagination was on overdrive, making my pants very uncomfortable. Then Emmett would wrap his arm around her waist and I felt waves of guilt for thinking the things I was thinking about my best friend's girlfriend.
As I started to get up from my bed I felt someone grab my arm. I turned and saw a very beautiful blond woman, naked in my bed. After the party had started to come to an end, I had went to find someone willing to take care of the 'little' problem Bella had caused in my jeans. Rosalie had been all to willing.
"I have to go," I told her. "I'm suppose to go into town this morning" Jasper was going to take me to a car rental place so that I didn't have to have people drive me around everywhere for the next two months I'm here. Then, later tonight, we're going to meet up with Emmett and go to this bar and bowling alley. But right now I need to get rid of this girl.
"Okay," she says. Then she sits up, not even bothering to cover herself, and reaches down for her purse on the floor. She grabs a pen and then pulls my hand towards her. As she writes her number I appraise her body. She really is beautiful but I can't see myself ever being with her.
"Call me,"she says as she then proceeds to get dressed. I quickly pull on a pair of boxers and jeans. I lead her out of my room and downstairs. As we enter the living room I see Bella and Emmett sitting on the couch, playing the playstation 2. They hear us coming down so they are turned towards us. Emmett has a big goofy grin on his face.
"Have a nice night?" he asks, laughing.
Rosalie laughs as well and replies, "A very nice night, indeed." I chuckle and then look at Bella, she's scowling at Rosalie. When she notices me staring she looks away, her face now expressionless. I walk Rosalie to the door and kiss her before she leaves. She smiles and reminds me to call her. I tell her I will, even though I know I probably won't.
As I turn back towards Emmett and Bela I see them playing the game again, trying to pin each other's players. Finally, after a few minutes, Bella wins. She jumps up and does a little victory dance. Swaying her hips and making her breasts bounce as she chants, "I win! I win!" Emmett tackles her and they begin a much more appealing version of wrestling. I feel like I'm about to either barf or rip Emmett's head off. Neither of which reactions make sense to me.
I enter the kitchen, trying to ignore the noises coming from the living room, and try to explain the rage coursing through my body.
After Jasper took me to rent a car, a Volvo which I love and am planning on buying one when I get home, we went back to my parents house to get ready. I take a shower and dress in jeans an a nice button up shirt. I pushed the sleeves up to my elbows, grabbed wallet, keys, and told Jasper that he had to take his own car because I might want to bring someone home.
Once I'm inside I get a beer and sit at the bar. The bar and alley are separated so it's like an actual bar in here. Then you go through a set of doors and you're in the bowling alley.
As I'm finishing up my beer I feel an arm my neck, squeezing sightly, choking me. Then a fist goes to the top of my head and rubs, giving me a noogie. A booming voice says, "Hey Eddie boy! Watcha doing?" Emmett laughs when I glare at him. I run my fingers through my hi and mutter "dip shit" under my breath. He hears it and laughs again. I hear another laugh, like soft bells it's angelic. I turn my head and see Bella.
What did I ever do to make God despise me so greatly?
At some point in the night Jasper got text from Alice and left immediately. I didn't even ask him about it because I noticed he was walking funny and he'd only had three beers. About a half hour after Jasper left Emmett had to leave as well, claiming he had to get up early to go to work. I thought Bella would leave with him, but she said she wanted to play one more game. So I said I'd stay and play, then give her a ride home.
So here I am, in the Volvo, with a drunk Bella, driving her home. I'd never laughed this much, smiled this much, never been so happy, never felt this much quilt for being so happy. When we were laughing with and at each other I barely kept my eyes on the road, always feeling the urge to just look at her. She's so beautiful. And I want her so badly.
Now we were at her and Emmett's apartment and she leaned towards me before getting out of the car. She leaned closer and I had no idea what she was going to do. What is she doing? Is she going to kiss me? Realization dawned on me then. Oh God, she's going to kiss me! She leans in closer and I can feel her breath on my lips. I part them slightly, but I don't move closer. Allowing her to make the first move. Then she tilts her head up and kisses me on the nose. She quickly gets out of the car.
"Have a nice night, Edward," she calls over her shoulder.
I'm on cloud nine. She kissed me! Sure it was on the nose but it was so fucking good. And her lips were so soft against my skin. And now I sound like a fucking school girl. Terrific!
