Chapter 4. Surprises. EPOV.
This year at the Mason Boarding Academy, I found myself rooming with my best friend Jasper, and one of the new kids, Emmett Swan. I was already in the dorm room that we would – unfortunately – be sharing, when Jasper and Emmett walked in laughing their heads off. What made me start laughing was the the fact that Emmett, being 6 foot 4 and all with muscles of a tank, looked so funny when he was laughing because of the dimples in his cheeks when he laughed.
When Emmett finally noticed that I was in the room, he stopped laughing and suddenly had a look as if he was going to kill me. That immediately shut me up and stared at Emmett in shock. Would he really kill me? What really surprised me, was that once I shut up, Emmett started laughing again. That made jasper start laughing again too. Between his fit of laughter, Emmett said, "The -laugh- look – on your -laugh- face when -laugh- I stopped -laugh- laughing at you -laugh- and stared at -laugh- you-laugh- was priceless!"
"Yeah Edward," Jasper said after he stopped laughing at me, "you looked like you were gonna pee your pants!" I just glared at the pair of them before huffing. Emmett came over to me and shook my hand and said, "Nice to meet you Edward.". He had a pretty tight grip, but I gave him a firm handshake too. He must have felt my grip too, because his serious face turned into a massive grin.
"Don't fell bad Edward, the only person that doesn't find me intimidating is my Belly-Bells," I gave him an incredulous look when he said 'Belly-Bells'. He laughed and explained.
"Bella, is my little sister, I always give her nicknames, and Belly-Bells is her latest one. Although I have come up with Bellarina..." his explanation trailed off. I laughed, this guy was hilarious.
"Don't fell bad, I'm sure you wont feel intimidated by me after a while. Anywho... which room is mine?" he asked, totally changing the direction of the subject at hand – his sister.
"Emmett, we may be friends now, but I swear if you hurt my sister, there will be hell to pay," Jasper said with a serious look on his face. Emmett just nodded.
"Don't worry ,Jasper, I wont hurt her. But I know what you mean, I worry about Bella getting hurt by some arsehole every day," he said solemnly.
"HEY!" Emmett shouted getting not only Jasper and my attention, but possibly the whole buildings.
"I have a great idea. I worry about Bella, a lot, so I need your help with this. Are you guys in?" We both nodded, knowing what he feels. We both have sisters and we want to protect them from the perverted guys.
"OK, you guys have been here for what? two or three years. So you know which of the guys are jerks and will try and get into a girls pants, right?" We nodded. We had to know if we were going to look after our sisters.
"I will need you to point out those guys first day of school, OK?" We nodded again.
"Are any of the guys at this school afraid of you two?" Emmett asked. Jasper and I got massive grins on our faces. Jasper and I, and now Emmett, ruled this school. Sure we were only in grade 10, but we were the biggest guys on campus. Even the matric guys weren't bigger than us. When Jasper and I came to this school we had made a plan of our own. If any guy tried to make a move on our sisters, we would pretend to be their boyfriend and they would automatically back down. I would pretend to be dating Rose and Jasper would pretend to be dating Alice. Although, he didn't have to pretend for long. They started dating for real just a few weeks later. Rose however, was not happy about me pretending to be her boyfriend. But she soon got over it once all the guys left her alone. Which she was very grateful for.
Emmett took our grins as a yes and continued.
"This is where you two come in. If any of those guys try and make a move on Bells while I'm not there, you will go up to them and scare the shit outta them. Can you do that for me?"
"Sounds like fun to me," I said with a smile. Jasper agreed with me.
"Do whatever it takes to get those guys away from her, OK?"
"Don't worry Emmett. Edward and I have both been in this situation. We know what to do. Edward would always say that he and Rose were dating to get rid of the guys, and I was dating Alice, so all the guys knew to not go after her," Jasper said with a smug grin. Emmett started nodding his head and he looked like he was thinking.
"OK, Edward? How do you feel like pretending to date Bella, and I pretended to date Rose?" he asked in a cheery voice. This guy sure must like Rose a lot, I thought. I was quick to agree though, Rose was a lot to handle sometimes. I was thankful to finally stop pretending to date Rose. She really got on my nerves sometimes.
"Wait. Shouldn't you at least tell me about my new girlfriend first. I mean, I date girls based on their personalities, not because their older brother could beat me to a pulp" I said with a smirk. He shook his head and laughed.
"Edward, I think you and I will get along," he said with a smirk.
"Well. Bella is 16. She has brown hair to her waist. Brown Eyes. Loves to read – for some very odd reason – she's about 5 foot 4. She loves to listen to music, I always find her listening to that classical stuff. Her favourite place in South Africa is Cape Town. She hates the rain and cold. She is very independent, likes to do stuff for herself. She loves to cook, and is actually pretty good at it too. You will never see her cry, she doesn't like people to see her suffer. She always puts others before herself. She's the one of the best sisters a guy could ask for. So uh, really that's about it." Emmett said with a shrug. He spoke pretty highly of Bella. She liked to read, so maybe we liked a few of the same books. Emmett said that she liked classical music too, we could probably talk for hours about music. Out of nowhere, Emmett started laughing. Jasper and I looked at each other and then to Emmett.
"So, Emmett. Uh, care to share what's so funny? You know what they say, 'Sharing is Caring!'" Jasper said in an amused tone. I tried my hardest to suppress the involuntary smile that was creeping onto my face, but I did. Emmett nodded his head in between laughs and tried to calm himself down.
"OK. I think I'm all good. Well I was just thinking about what else I could tell you. And I remembered one time, we were walking to the beach in Cape Town and then randomly she trips. I look back to find Bella sitting on her arse pouting up at me. Then she goes, 'The stupid air made me trip.' in an annoyed tone. So right there in the middle of a busy sidewalk, I crack up laughing. Every time I remember that – or any other time she falls – I start to laugh. Oh! That reminds me. Bella always trips...or falls...or slips. OK, well lets just say that she's clumsy. Very, very clumsy at that," Emmett said while he looked liked he was thinking really hard about something. His eyebrows were scrunched up while he was thinking, so I decided to have a little fun.
"Don't hurt yourself there Emmett," I said and Jasper started chuckling. Emmett looked at us with a confused expression. Maybe he didn't hear me. Or maybe he didn't get it.
"What's so funny?" he asked. This made me laugh now. He really was too busy thinking to even hear what I had said. Emmett just glared at us. We stopped laughing automatically.
"Well, I said that you shouldn't hurt yourself thinking to hard. Then you looked at us utterly confused. Which meant that you truly were deep in thought," I explained incoherently and shrugged.
"Funny, Edward. Real funny," he said slowly, glaring at me. Jasper and I just started laughing.
"Looks like Edward isn't afraid of you anymore ,Emmett," Jasper said raising an eyebrow.
"Hey! I resent that! I was not afraid of Emmett. I was merely suspicious," I told them. I wasn't scared of Emmett, just a little intimidated. But I wasn't going to admit that to them. It Jasper was right, he didn't scare me, or intimidate me anymore.
"Ag man! I can't even scare the guy that's dating my lil sis. This sucks." Emmett whined. I laughed.
"Aw, it's OK ,Emmie bear," Jasper cooed, "you still get to scare the shit outta all the other guys at MBA," he finished like he was talking to a little baby. Emmett's eyes just lit up like a little child of Christmas morning.
"Yeah! Oh, that reminds me! On the first day of school, at about midnight, you guys, me and Bella will have a little fun with our classmates. You in?" he asked raising one eyebrow.
"Emmett, Emmett, Emmett. You have to understand that Edward and myself here are the biggest pranksters of the school. But now that you have come, I'm sure that you will be able to join us," Jasper told Emmett.
"Awesome! Wait, can Bells be in it too? She's an awesome prankster, comes up with the best pranks ever!" he said giving Jasper and I the puppy dog eyes. Of course, Jasper and I have become immune to the puppy dogs eyes. When you have been around Alice for your whole life, you learn how to not fall for them. Jasper on the other hand, he is immune to them, but he would do anything for Alice anyway. For Jasper, she doesn't even need them.
"We'll see. If all goes well on D-day, she might be in." That's Jasper alright, the mediator.
Jasper and Emmett started talking about past and future pranks. I didn't hear what they were saying, nor did I really care. I was too busy thinking about Bella. What did she look like? Sure, Emmett said that she had brown hair, and brown eyes. But I had too see her for myself. What is she like? Down to earth? Stuck up? I shuddered at the thought of having to date a stuck up bitch. Even if our relationship was fake. I would have to be around her for what? Three years?
I just really hoped she wasn't one of those stuck up girls that thinks the whole world revolves around money and gossip. If she is, well I guess I will have to talk to ignore her, or see if we had anything in common.
What does she look like?
What music does she like?
Is she stuck up?
Would we have anything in common?
Does she like to read?
What does she like?
All too soon, I fell asleep, with millions of questions about Bella.
I awoke to find myself sprawled across the couch. Very uncomfortable might I add. I looked around our new dorm room and noticed that Emmett and Jasper were missing. I got up and headed to their respective bedrooms. We had all had a discussion last night to see who's room belonged to whom.
I looked in Emmett's room first, nobody was in there. Jasper's room was next, they weren't in there either. I went in my room, they weren't in there either. I did however find a not on the desk. I walked to the desk and picked up the note.
To Our Dearest Sleeping Beauty,
We went to see our sisters. We told them yesterday that we would. Jazz told me that you were really grumpy when you are woken up, so... Anywho, we left at 9 am and we wont be back until about 3 pm. Phone us if you miss us. =D
Em and Jazz.
Sleeping Beauty? That's real nice. Now I had a stupid nickname. Now I knew what Bella felt like when Emmett gave her a nickname. I walked out of my room and back to the lounge room. I looked at the wall clock and saw that it was 10 am. I was just headed to the kitchen to make myself some breakfast when I heard something.
Like a virgin
Touched for the very first time
Like a virgin
When your heart beats (after first time, with your heartbeat)
Next to mine
Yeah, that's right. Jasper had changed my phones tone to Like a Virgin by Madonna, again. He did that last year too. Just because I'm a virgin and he isn't. Stupid Jasper. I went to the couch and picked up my phone. The screen was lit up and have the words 'One new Message' on it. I went to my inbox and read the message. It was from Alice.
Attention All, it read.
If you hear somebody singing, please open your door for a show. I repeat open your door for a show. Oh and remember that a photo's last much much longer.
Alice.
That's when I heard it. A few girly screams from upstairs and a few wolf whistles from down the hall and what sounded like a walrus. I quickly ran to the door and opened it quickly. And... I wish I hadn't. What I saw was beyond funny. Why was I so amused? You would be amused too if you saw Emmett, almost naked, running in his boxers. Yeah, not a great sight. Oh and it wasn't a walrus like I first thought. It was Emmett trying to sing I'm Too Sexy by Right Said Fred. All the guys on this level just stared at Emmett like he was crazy – which he might actually be – wolf whistled or slamming the door so they don't have to see anymore.
I started laughing when my disgust wore off. Emmett was now on the floor below. The girls floor. I decided to stand in the door and wait for Emmett to come running back up. So a few minuted later, I heard a screaming and then Emmett came into view. I laughed even harder, he was being chased by a mob of girls. I could see the flash of a few cameras taking photo's of Emmett's, uh, show. Emmett glared at me as he came running past, still followed by the crazy girls.
I heard a door on the level above me slam, and I knew that the show was over. I walked back into the room and headed for the bathroom. I don't think that I would be able to keep my food down if I ate anything. So I decided to settle for a shower and then eat something. I walked into the bathroom and turned on the shower, wanting it to be warm before I hopped in. I got a towel and hung it over the top of the shower. I stripped off my clothes and got in.
The warm water was relaxing against my skin. I had just finished washing my hair when I heard a few knocks at the door. I turned off the shower and wrapped the towel around my waist.
"I'm coming!" I shouted out. I quickly walked to the front door and opened it to find a girl. Before I could say anything, she grabbed me and pulled my face down to her and kissed me. When our lips met I felt an amazing spark. I was so confused at why this girl was kissing me. But I kissed her back eagerly when I realised that it didn't matter. She started it! I gently ran my tongue over her lower lip, begging for her to let me in. She quickly complied. Our tongues battled for control but I won in the end. We kept kissing, but then she tried to pull away. Instead I just pulled her up against my body and wrapped my arms around her waist and her arms found their way to the back of my neck. My body was already reacting to having this girl so close to me and kissing her so passionately. I was just hoping that she couldn't tell that I was so, uh, happy.
When we did finally separated, I got a good look at the girl I was just kissing. And man, was I impressed. She was absolutely breathtaking! Her hair was a mahogany brown that fell to her waist is waves. Her skin was pale but flawless. She had to be about 5 foot 4 or 5, she wasn't as tall as Rosalie, but wasn't as short as Alice. Her body stunning, she had curves in all the right places. But what really caught my attention were her eyes. She had the most stunning eyes I had ever seen. They were a chocolate brown and they just captured my own eyes in hers. I was still surprised because of her kiss. I was now very confused at why this beautiful creature was kissing me. I was completely staring at the girl in front of me. I felt a pang of disappointment when the smile she had disappeared. I would do anything to get her to smile again. My body however, craved her warmth and company again. I really hoped that she didn't notice how my body was reacting.
"Um...hi? I'm Bella?" She didn't seem to be so sure of her name, or maybe she was just nervous. But why would she be nervous? Well I don't know Edward, maybe it was because she just randomly kissed a stranger, my mind fought with !? Could this be Emmett's little sister Bella? I was staring at her now. Trying to figure out if this was the same Bella. It must have been because I had never seen her around school before. She was Emmett's Bella. She was exactly like he had described her, only much beautiful.
She blushed under my gaze.. When she blushed she looked even more beautiful then she already was. I smiled at her and introduced myself.
"Hi, I'm Edward. Edward Cullen." First she looked at me in shock, then panic crossed her facial features. Her breathing got deep and shallow and then she started to fall. Before she could hit the ground, my arms reached out and snaked around her waist. She did however hit her head on the wall when I caught her. I heard screaming and saw Emmett, Jasper, Rose and Alice running at me with horrified expressions.
"Bella!" he yelled. A few of the guys came out of their rooms to see what all the noise was for. They froze when they saw Bella, limp in my arms.
"What the Hell happened, Edward?!" Emmett screamed. I was now in total shock. Had she fainted? Was she hurt? I didn't know, but I was truly worried. I gently laid her on the ground and looked up at Emmett. He was staring at me with a hurt look in his eyes. He must really be worried about Bella.
'She came and then kissed me. I kissed her back. I introduced my self and then she just..." I trailed off.
"Let's take her to the schools hospital," Jasper said taking lead. He always took the lead whenever the rest of us were stressing. Emmett gently put his arms under Bella and lifted her up. Jasper lead Emmett to the lift and I followed. I was just about to get in the lift when Alice looked at me like I was the crazy one. I gave her a questioning look and she pointed to my chest. I looked down and realised that not only did I not have a shirt on, but I only had a towel on.
"I'll meet you at the hospital in a few," I said and jogged back to my room. I ripped off my towel and grabbed a pair of boxers and threw them on. I found a pair of pants and a shirt and put those on too. I went to my wardrobe and got out a pair of tekkies and put those on over my socks.
I ran to the kitchen and grabbed the room key and ran out of the room. I couldn't be bothered waiting for the lift so I ran all the way down the stairs and ran to the on school hospital. I slowed as I got to the doors of the hospital and walked briskly in and headed to where Alice and Rose were.
They gave me sad looks and I sat down next to them and put my head in my hands.
A few minutes Emmett and Jasper came out and told us that she will have to stay here until she wakes up. Jasper was now sitting with the girls, so I walked up to Emmett. I had to apologize, I told Emmett that I wouldn't hurt Bella. And it turns out, the first time I did meet her, I hurt her,
"Emmett," I said, "I am really so-" I didn't get to finish my apology because he stopped me.
"Edward, it isn't your fault," he said. How could it not be my fault? She passed out! I was going to voice my objection, but Emmett held up a hand to stop me.
"She had a panic attack," Emmett explained.
"But what caused it?" I asked. He shrugged.
"Only she can tell us that. I will ask her when she wakes up. Edward, this isn't your fault, she has them all the time. She had 10 last year. It's caused by different things. Don't beast yourself up over it, OK?" I nodded.
"Good, lets all head to her room, hopefully she will wake up soon," he said and he lead all of us to her room.
I moved one of the chairs next to Bella's bed and gently placed my hand ever hers.
The others sat down in the other chairs and we waited for our Bella to wake up.
