Chapter 4:

BPOV:

The next morning, well it wasn't morning, so let's say - the next afternoon I woke up.

Last nights dance felt like a dream. Did I really just dream up that I met a handsome masked guy that kissed me? And that he was Edward Cullen?

I climbed out of bed and naturally, I fell to the floor with a loud "Oof!"

I heard my parents say "she's up". I rolled my eyes and stood on my feet.

I went over to the computer and turned it on, rubbing my eyes.

I was just about to go to the bathroom to freshen up, when I froze in place.

On my computer chair, was a jacket. A black jacket. It wasn't mine.

It must've been.. oh no.

It really did happen and I had his jacket. Uh-oh.

He probably thought I was some sort of thief.

There had to be some way to give it back to him, but how to do so without him noticing?

I suppose I could get Alice to give it to him, saying she found it on the ground. But how to do so without having to give an explanation?

And then it hit me. His jacket was like Cinderella's shoe. Only I wasn't keen to search for Cinderella, I already knew who my Cinderella was.

Wait - that sounds so wrong. Shouldn't I be Cinderella and he be my prince?

Last night was a fairytale but I won't go comparing myself to the fairytale. Edward Cullen was not my prince. If anything, he was Jessica Stanley's or Tanya Denali's.

I shrugged and went off to the bathroom and did my business and brushed my hair and teeth.

I looked like I had a hangover. That's what I get for staying up all night talking to a guy who didn't even know me.

I sat down at the computer and signed on.

But of course, he was logged on. Didn't the boy ever sleep?!

multiplepersonalities: Hey, Beautiful.

nerdygirl1881: Hey there yourself.

nerdygirl1881: Geez, don't you ever sleep?

multiplepersonalities: Haha. I do, but I decided to wake up extra early, so I could be here when you got on.

nerdygirl1881: And say if I didn't come on at all?

multiplepersonalities: I would wait all day for you, my fair princess.

I laughed out loud. I suppose he was trying to charm my ass off.

multiplepersonalities: So what are your plans today? Well, the day is almost over technically, since it's 2PM, but the day is still near. So, any plans?

nerdygirl1881: Well, I don't know. My best friend probably wants to go shopping, she's always dragging me around the stories.

multiplepersonalities: Lol. That sounds a lot like my cousin Alice, she's always dragging her friend Isabella around.

Oh snap. Change the subject. Change the subject. Change the freaking subject!

nerdygirl1881: Haha. I think all girls are like that.

nerdygirl1881: And what about you? Any plans for this most endearing Saturday?

multiplepersonalities: Not really, just figured I'd chill around here, probably do homework or watch some movies. Say, you don't feel like..?

nerdygirl1881: Haha, no! No chance. Stop trying to be tricky.

nerdygirl1881: Oh, my phone is buzzing. I'll be right back.

multiplepersonalities: Okay. :)

I sprinted over to my phone.

Of course, I should've guessed. It was Alice.

"Hey, Alice, what's up?"

"Don't you hey Alice what's up me!" She screeched into the phone.

I sighed, I should've seen this coming.

"You've been sleeping all day! That's a whole day of shopping gone! Kapoof! Not to mention you came back with someone else's jacket on you when you disappeared from the ball last night! What is going on with you Bella?"

I sighed, again. "Sorry, Alice. I was just really tired, I didn't get much sleep last night. As for the jacket, well, it was an extra I bought."

"Mhmm. And that's why you were inhaling your jacket so much? Do you love the way you smell or something?"

I laughed. "Sorry Alice. How can I make it up to you?"

"Welllllllllll, we have at least 3 and a half hours shopping left!" (A/N: I don't know about where you guys live, but where I live; shops close at 6PM.)

"Ugh fine, I'll get ready and pick you up."

"No, Bella. I'll pick you up! I won't be seen in that awful, atrocious, so-called vehicle of yours. Be there in 20! Tootles!"

The phone disconnected.

I sighed and went back to the computer and began typing.

nerdygirl1881: Hey, I'm back.

nerdygirl1881: My friend wants to take me shopping. Revenge for missing a whole day of shopping so far, ugh.

multiplepersonalities: Haha. I'm sorry about that, my friend. Although, I guess I should take some of the blame, since I kept you up all night.

nerdygirl1881: No, no! It's okay, I enjoyed staying up all night talking to you! It's just.. my friends a maniac.

multiplepersonalities: Oh, that's good. Because I.. uh.. I really love talking to you too, no matter what time it is.

nerdygirl1881: :)

nerdygirl1881: Well, I guess I better go and get ready, she'll be here soon..

multiplepersonalities: Oh, okay. :(

multiplepersonalities: But, before you go..

He paused typing, I wondered what evil ploy he was about to make.

He resumed typing, and I waited.

multiplepersonalities: Can I have your number?

nerdygirl1881: Um.. what for?

multiplepersonalities: So I can keep you company in texting or calling (whichever you prefer), so it won't be hell for you while shopping with your friend.

nerdygirl1881: Aw, that's so nice of you. Okay it's..

We swapped numbers and then I told him I had to leave.

I didn't really want to leave, it was such fun talking to him, but Alice would kill me in the long run.

So I get ready, putting on some red pants and a black tank top with a button shirt that had Daffy Ducks on the front.

I brushed my hair the best I could; no matter what I did, it always returned to frizz.

Then, I put on my black converse, grabbed my bag and phone and walked downstairs.

By the time I reached the door, I heard a honk outside.

I laughed. Trust Alice to have perfect timing.

I climbed into her yellow Porsche and braced myself for the next few hours of hell.

"Wow, Bella." Alice said, eyeing me closely.

"What?" I asked.

"You're glowing." She replied.

"What? No. No I am not!"

Alice laughed. "Yes. Yes, you are! Come on, Bella. What's his name?"

"Who's name?"

"The guy you are obviously falling over."

I chuckled nervously. "What? Alice, there's n-no guy."

Crap. Did she know? Did Edward tell her? No, she couldn't know. Edward didn't even know who I was!

"Honestly Alice, there's no guy. I just used one of those facials you gave me and I also got more sleep than I usually got last night."

I lied. I lied. I lied. To my best friend.

But, the worst thing is was that she knew I was lying, too.

She murmured to herself and started her car. "Okay, ready to have some fun?"

I groaned and laid my head back into the head rest, closing my eyes.

My phone vibrated.

I reached into my bag and saw that I had a new a text message.

It was from Edward. I smiled. But then fixed my facial expression in case Alice suspected.

It's not like I was sneaking around with Edward or anything, but I didn't want her thinking that I was one of his many fangirls. Which I was before, but now it was different.

I guess I didn't want her thinking that I was lying to him to get into his pants or anything.

Hey Beautiful,

How's the torture going so far?

I grinned and texted him back.

Hey you,

Not too bad, we're actually on the way right now.

I'm hoping it won't be bad as I know it will be.

What are you upto?

I sent the message and kept the phone in my hand.

"Who's the text from?" Alice asked.

I looked at her. "Oh. Just my Mom. You know how close we are, she just wants to make sure you're not torturing me too much with shopping."

"Ha-ha. Very funny." She rolled her eyes.

Another beep.

Nothing much, just hanging out here by myself.

Bored without you! You know I could always come to the mall and accompany you..

I laughed.

Nice try! But there's no way you are going to rescue me from the mall!

I wouldn't dare sentence you to double my boredom since you being a guy and not a girl, shopping for you would be a million times worse for you than it would be for me since I'm a girl and I already hate shopping.

But I'm rambling! The point is, don't bother coming, lol.

I hoped that he wouldn't come to the mall and seeing me with Alice and then recognize me.

SIGH, fine. I will figure out eventually, you know.

I just wish there was something I could do to ease your pain.

I might just watch some movies or something.

Will you be on tonight?

My heart swelled. He missed me!

Yes, of course. As soon as I get back from shopping, I'll be online.

But I'll have to have dinner and then I'll be back.

Don't you have an major parties to go to tonight or anything? Girlfriends to entertain?

He replied back almost instantly.

Ha ha. No.

I always get these invites to parties, but I never go. Parties with loud music, drunk teenagers and kids on crack aren't exactly my thing.

As for girlfriend to entertain? There's only one girl on my mind and she won't tell me who she is. ;

I chuckled.

That's weird, I'd always thought you went to those type of parties.

Hmm. Do I know this girl by any chance?

As soon as I sent that text, we were parked at the mall.

"C'mon Bella, we're here!" Alice squealed.

I groaned and put my phone in my pocket and my bag on my shoulder.

We were walking when I got another text.

You might. She has beautiful brown eyes. Dark hair, like yours.

And you two have the same personality. I can't seem to get enough of her.

And when we kissed.. won't you tell me who are?

I sighed.

Sorry, no. You know the reasons why.

But you never know - maybe on Monday, you'll recognize me.

Alice pulled me into some kind of clothing store, I wasn't really paying attention.

I hope so.

But if I do or do not, you have to promise me that we'll still stay talking.

I smiled.

Of course, I wouldn't ever want to lose you as a friend, Edward.

A/N: Ooh! Next chapter will be the schoolday. Will Edward recognize Bella?

What do you guys want to happen? Next chapter or in the story, you guys can always feel free to give me your ideas and whichever.

Okay, so something about the last chapter; I accidentally let slip and some of you noticed : when Bella and Edward were sitting down on the bench, Edward said Bella's name in his mind. But I just want to address now that Edward has no idea who Bella is. Bella knows who Edward is but Edward doesn't know who she is.

Thank you for all the reviews so far, it seriously makes me so happy people enjoy reading my story and it keeps me going! :)
