FINALLY!! Heres my update!! And guess who's in this chapter ;)

Four years later...

"There she is!" A booming voice caught my attention as I dragged my luggage through the airport.

Home from the University of Alaska. I'd just graduated with a degree in literature and planned to teach at Forks High. Next year. Financially, I was fine right now.

Now I was being wrapped into an unbelievably tight hug by Emmett, who I hadn't seen since Christmas last year. Everyone was here: Emmett, his Fiancé, Rosalie, and
Jasper and his fiancé, Alice and Esme and Carlisle. A huge smile lit up my face.

"Oh my gosh I missed you guys so much!" I cried, dropping my freakishly heavy bags and hugging everyone.

"I can't believe you're back! It's just like when you came home from France, except this time you don't have a creepy raper guy with you!" Emmett laughed.

Everyone stared at him.

"Moving on..." I said slowly. "Whose driving me home?"

"Where is he?" Jasper checked his watch for the millionth time. I rolled my eyes.

Jasper was at the front door, waiting for a friend he'd met when I was in France all those years ago. Apparently he, Emmett and this guy were going to hang out at Emmett's
today, and he was Jasper's ride. I, on the other hand, was sitting at the kitchen table, in one of Jasper's sweaters; a huge grey one, and tiny little booty shorts. Obviously I
wouldn't dress like this is I was going out, but thankfully, I wasn't going out.

I took another bite of my Lucky Charms and watched with amusement as Jasper tapped his toes. His shoes clicking on the hard floor.

"Screw it. Maybe he couldn't make it. I'll just take the car. What are you going to do today?" Jasper asked.

I stood and went to make myself a cup of coffee. "Groceries, maybe. I don't know. Maybe I'll call Alice or Rosalie."

Jasper eyes lit up. He was overjoyed that Alice and I were such good friends. The whole four years I was at university, we'd emailed back and forth and become very close. I'd
emailed with Rosalie too, but her proud personnality didn't match my rather layed back style. Even though Alice was the polar opposite of me, we just clicked more than Rosalie
and I.

"Great. I'll see you later Bella," He punched my shoulder lightly with a smile. I grinned at him and waved. He practically ran out the door.

I finished my cereal and did the dishes, my hair tied tied back lazily in a messy, loose bun. I checked the cupboards and made up a list of groceries, shaking my head in
exhasperation. Jasper couldn't have done the groceries in at least three weeks.

I was about to start vaccuming when the doorbell rang. I went to answer it. A tall man stood there. He had bronze-like hair and shocking green eyes. He looked surprised for a
moment.

"Umm...hi?" I said slowly.

"You're Bella?" The guy said.

"Yeah. Who are you?" I asked.

"Edward." He stuck out his hand to shake. I took it.

"Oh, you're Jasper's and Emmett's friend. Jasper left a good half hour ago." I explained.

"Oh, I know. We've been at Emmett's. They were playing some video game, but I got bored. Jasper said you were planning on doing the groceries, so I figured I'd come help." He
told me with a shrug.

"Why?" My obvious shock coloured my tone.

Laughter shone in his eyes. "Mostly because Jasper took your car." I looked out in the driveway. Yep, he'd taken my car.

I sighed. "Well, come in." I stepped out of his way. He walked passed me. "Why can't he just take his own car?" I seethed.

"No gas." Edward smiled. It was oddly crooked. I made me smile back. "Um...you might want to change."

I looked down and realized I was just wearing jJasper's sweater and the nearly invisible booty shorts. Blush stained my face. "I'll be right back," I muttered quickly. "Sit down." I
charged up the stairs and to my bedroom. I grabbed a pair of bright pink skinny jeans, my favourites, a simple black tank top and threw a beige-ish grey jacket over top. I grabbed
some black flats and hurried back down the stairs. "Sorry about that," I told Edward with a guarded smile.

Edward laughed. "Don't worry about it." He was sitting on the old couch, arms crossed. His eyes had been semi closed before he'd heard me coming. "Did you want to leave now?"

I shook my head. "No. Not quite yet. The weather in Forks is making me tired, and I'm not quite awake yet," I joked.

Edward chuckled. "You do realize it's like, one, right?"

I shrugged. "Yeah. So?" I started walking to the kitchen. "You want something to drink?"

"I'll have some water." Edward told me. I nodded an grabbed him a glass of water, and grabbed myself a can of pepsi. I brought them back it, successfully getting the drink to Edward
without spilling it. Then I plopped into the seat across from the couch.

"Thanks," Edward said. I smiled. Edward seemed to stare intently at my face before saying, "Have we met?"

I frowned and studied his features. Something was familiar. Then it struck me. Only because I'd remember the odd combination of bright green eyes and bronze hair anywhere. "Five
years ago," I recalled. "Wow. Long time. You were coming to meet Emmett's partner in crime, or something."

"Which was you," Edward remembered with a laugh. "Are you still?"

I smiled. "We've grown up. Plus I just got home." I explained.

"From where?" Edward asked curiously.

"Univeristy of Alaska," I answered. "That's why I'm so tired all the time. I used to the cold keeping me awake!" I joked.

Edward laughed. "Cool. So how old are you, Bella?" He asked.

"Twenty-three." I answered, taking a sip of my pepsi. "You?"

"Twenty-five." Edward told me. So he was younger than Emmett and Jasper, then. It felt odd to just sit around and chat. I felt seventeen all over again.

"Should we head out?" Edward suggested. I glanced at the clock and groaned.

"I suppose. Let's go." I sighed. Edward laughed.

There you go!! Sorry it took so long. But at least we finally have Edward!!!
