September had passed quickly, and before I knew it, Autumn was now here, as was Halloween. The air was chilled and warm days were completely gone. I missed the heat, the sun, but I loved Chicago and seasons change it's part of mother nature. My least favorite season was winter. I was very uncoordinated on snow. Ice was even worse then that.
At the age of six Edward and I had been having a snowball fight in his front yard. I ran across the driveway and slipped backwards on the hard ice. I fell forward and tried to catch myself with my arm, breaking it in the process. That was not the best day of my life, but not exactly the worst.
I knew that Edward wasn't partial to Winter, for Autumn was his favorite season of the four. The tree's turned bright orange's, yellows and red and the ground is covered in leaves. When Esme used to rake the leaves from the ground, Edward and I used to jump into the mounds and throw them around, creating a big mess all over again. But she never minded.
Edward started taking his Motorcycling lessons, and was improving rather well from what I have heard from him. He'd been taking them since Thursday, September 15th. He goes every Thursday and Sunday. He has taken thirteen classes so far and only needs to take two more, then a test, to get his motorcycle license.
He's been playing games at the school consistantly on Friday's. This year they were doing really good. I had gone to a few games that the school played in. But I didn't attend most. I didn't enjoy seeing Edward run off the field after a good game to kiss Tanya.
Today it's Thursday, the twenty seventh. Edward was taking his thirteenth lesson today and I sat in my bedroom, studying for a Math test that was taking place tomorrow. I really didn't need to study, considering I knew exactly what we were doing, but it was never a bad thing just try perfect everything and make sure I knew everything.
School had been going quite well. Report cards would be coming at the end of the semester during Christmas break. Which was awhile from now but I was in no hurry for winter to come. November was going to be starting soon.
Edward was dwelling on the fact that he couldn't ride in the winter or spring. He could ride on the occasional spring day. But in Chicago, we got alot of rain in the spring. Lots of thunderstorms, which were my ultimate fear when lightening struck the sky. I don't like anything that lights up the sky brightly besides the moon, sun and stars.
My window was slight cracked and a light breeze blew threw my room. I could catch the scent of burning leaves, that was, oddly, my favorite scent. Besides Edward's musk and cinnamon scent. I grinned at the thought of him...
He hadn't talked to Tanya about her lying about them being together and it being perfect. He said it would only start a stupid fight that was unnecessary. Edward also said that he didn't want Tanya to feel bad about the situation. I hardly believed she would feel bad, she would probably just persuade him to do it again and promise to make it be better for him. Just the thought made me cringe.
He had been a little down over what she had said, but I tried my hardest to make his day brighter, to just make his smile light up everything like it should. She had broughten him down a bit, and it was going to be my job to make him smile.
Lately he has been spending more time with her. He was an hour late to the football game because he had lost track of time while with Tanya. He hadn't come over as often during the week as normal. But I had to get over the fact that she was his girlfriend. It was my main life obstacle, but something would work out for me eventually. There would be a purpose to all this.
The feeling of sadness that he was dating her, when I had a huge crush on him, was really starting to weight on my shoulders though, but I couldn't dwell on it now. Right now I needed to deal with getting through highschool. I couldn't let my feelings dominate my whole entire life. I would miss out on alot of I let it.
" Knock, knock!"
My head snapped up to meet bright green eyes. He openly walked into my bedroom, wearing that fuckhot leather jacket, I swear he looked lickable. Edward plopped right down on my bed as I closed my binder. He laid back with a long sigh and a groan. I noticed him holding a glade container and a fork.
" So hungry, so tired."
" Haven't seen you in awhile, stranger. Why don't you go home and eat." I chuckled
" I see you in the morning's. And Renee made some of her famous chicken stir-fry." he boasted, opening the container.
Steam wafted through the air, along with the aroma of vegetables and chicken. He dug his fork blindly into the container and brought it to his lips.
" When you choke from laying on your back eating, I will laugh."
As a joke he brought his hands around his neck, pretending he was choking " CPR...Call 911." he faked.
I shoved him jokingly and sat up, setting my binder on my desk where my laptop laid. I sat back on the bed, reading a book, as Edward continued to devour the chicken. When he finished he threw it on my table next to my lamp and patted his stomach.
" Your such a fatty." I teased, shoving his side.
He chuckled " Bella, I workout every Saturday, Wednesday and Monday, and I can bench one hundred and seventy five. I've got a six pack, not a fat pouch."
" Show off."
He grabbed my arm " You are a little stick, maybe you should get up your strength or you'll be a fatty. I mean you devoured that Birthday cake in like a day."
"Shut the hell up. It's not nice to tell a girl that she eats too much, let alone the fact she'll get fat."
" Well, your Bella. You don't care about that stuff."
I stared at him.
Was he serious?
" Every girls cares about her weight. If I didn't watch my food I would blow up!"
" Rawr, sorry." he apologized, waving his hand like a claw.
" Only gay guys do that." I stated.
He shrugged " I am definately not gay."
" Whatever you say. Oh the Bears are going against the Cardinals on Sunday at six. I figured we could go to the grocery store to pick up some stuff at five."
" Oh... I actually can't, the class it being moved to four, but I will make it to over at around five fourty five."
Dissapointment flooded my body " Okay. That's fine I'll just get the stuff myself. Well I've actually got to get some studying done for the test tomorrow. So..."
He frowned and stood up from my bed " You're upset now. I'm sorry, Iz B. I just want to get the classes and the test done just so I can start riding. I know I only really see you in the mornings now, and I was late for the game last Sunday because I was with Tanya."
" It's fine really. She's your girlfriend, so you want to be with her. I'm not going to hold you back from that." I murmured.
" Bella you've never held me back from anything."
" Well I'll leave you to studying. Don't study too hard."
He kissed my forehead before leaving my bedroom.
I would forever be the girl who was in love with her best friend, when he has the perfect girlfriend.

" Welcome to Chicago Dough, what can I get you today?" I asked, a smile plastered on my face.
" Six peices of cheese pizza, and an order of breadsticks." A teenager requested, taking out his wallet
" To let you know if you get a medium sized pizza, you can have a choice of breadsticks, cheese sticks or any desert for free."
He smiled " Price difference on six peices and a medium?" he asked.
" Only two dollars and fifty cents." I beamed.
" Alright, well then I will get a medium cheese pizza and breadsticks."
I rang him up and gave the chef the order. Within fifteen minutes it was finished. Normally we would keep pepperoni and cheese pizza's going all day because they were quite popular here. It was set in a box and I got the breadsticks and delivered it to the table. I was surprised when I saw James sitting at the table with his buddies.
" Bella! Hey. Haven't seen you since the party. Where have you been, Girly?"
Girly?! Is he on crack?
" Um...yeah. Nice to see you?" it was more like a question when it came out.
He was about to open his mouth but I interrupted him.
" I'd better get to work." I said, scampering away.
" Rejected!" shouted his friends.
Finally I got behind the counter and finished my 8:00am to 4:45pm shift. I had to stop at the grocery store, which I figured I would go to straight after work. I stripped off my red apron after my shift and hung it up in my locker. I grabbed my keys, along with my wallet and left, saying a goodbye to my manager.
The grocery store was ten minutes away from my work, and five minutes from my house by car. When I pulled into the parking lot it was very busy. I finally found a parking spot, all the way in the back and trudged into the store.
I was still wearing my work uniform. Which was a pair of black dress pants, my black converse and a red polo that had the Chicago Dough logo and signature on the breast pocket. My nametag was on the opposite side of the pocket.
Basket in hand, I went into the icecream aisle, quickly finding the Ben and Jerry's. When I saw the Pumpkin Cheesecake Icecream, I literally squealed. This one was both Edward and I's favorite, but it was only out from October and November.
I grabbed two of them quickly, and went straight over to the drink aisle. I grabbed a six pack of Coca-Cola, which was in the glass bottles. After scrounging up two bags of sour cream and cheddar potato crisps I went to check-out.
Every single check-out line had four or five people. I groaned and checked my watch. Five thirty.
" Shit," I muttered.
Twenty minutes later I was next in line to check out my things. I was bouncing in my spot, walking to just run so I wouldn't be late. I was upset at Edward for being late, yet this time, I was the one who was late.
Finally I spread my stuff on the conveyor belt. The girl was a teenager, and she was smacking her gum so loudly, I knew it was Lauren Mallory. She always chewed bubble gum, she smelt like it and I wouldn't be surprised if she bathed in it.
I had two minutes to get home. I was going to be late, that was a given. She checked me out slowly and I got out of there the second I got the receipt from her hands. To make everything worse, I had to walk alot to reach my car. I ran, trying my best not to trip.
When I got into the car it was already 6:03pm. I glared at the clock before backing out of my spot and driving towards home. I was hoping that Edward was late, but when I saw his Volvo in the driveway, and saw him on the porch I groaned.
It really made me look like a hypocrite. I got out of the car, holding two grocery bags in my hands, along with my wallet and keys.
" Why didn't you just go in?" I asked.
He sighed " I lost my key and Charlie and Renee are obviously working... But onto a different subject, -were-late-on-Sunday-and-I-was-pissed. Now who is late this time.
" The grocery store was busy."
" Nice outfit."
" Shut up or you wont get your Pumpkin Cheesecake Icecream." I threatened
He shut up and I grabbed my key, unlocking the door quickly. I brushed my bangs out of my face and walked inside. The air was warm, unlike outside. Edward went into the kitchen and grabbed spoons as I went upstairs. I quickly straightened up my room and flipped on my television.
" Why are potato crisps so dumb?" Edward asked, walking onto the room.
I stared at him.
" Because at parties their always hanging out with the dips."
I said nothing.
" Get it DIPS!"
I ignored him and turned on channel thirty six.
" No sense of humor I swear."
He walked forward, and rammed his foot into the corner of the bed frame. He yelped like a little school girl and dropped the spoons. I let out a loud laugh and he glared at me, rubbing the side of his foot.
" Now that was funny." I stated between giggles
" That fucking hurt!" he complained.
" Aw, poor baby. You're fine. If you don't mind I am going to change."
He smirked " Feel free to strip right here, Isabella." he joked with a laugh.
" Now, Edward. You've got luck, but your never going to be that lucky." I teased back, walking into my bathroom with a pile of clothes.
Edward rolled his eyes and ignored me. I slipped into my bathroom and locked the door. I put on the white shorts and navy blue tanktop, not bothering to take off my push-up bra. I threw my hair up in a ponytail and walked out of my bathroom, throwing the clothes in the hamper. I laid against my headboard next to Edward, who was already digging into the icecream. The Cardinals were winning so far. The score was already 7-3 and they were in the middle of the first quarter.
" Ugh, Cardinals suck. That guy took out Cutler without a hitch... Stupid. Bears need to get their heads out of their asses!"
Edward laughed and I opened up the lid on my icecream. I grabbed a spoon and dug into Pumpkin goodness.
The whole game went good, the Bears made an amazing comeback and by the fourth quarter. Now they were winning by seven points. Edward and I were cheering with mouthfulls of Icecream or Potato Crisps

When the game was over Bella and I continued to chill and watch shows. Luckily we were off school tomorrow because of Halloween. I wasn't at all interested in Halloween, what's the fun of dressing in a stupid outfit and making a fool of yourself. Bella and I were skipping the party at Newtons and agreed on just handing out candy at my house.
At around midnight the television was turned off, and there was only a glow from the lamp beside Bella. I looked down at her to see she was asleep. I reached over and brushed her cheekbone with my hand. She looked peaceful when she slept, nothing to hide.
I was about to get up when she turned towards me, slowly moving over onto her side and pressing herself against me the slightest, her arm came up to rest against my stomach and her head laid on my chest.
I couldn't explain at the moment what I felt, but I knew, that it wasn't the normal feelings that I felt for her.
BPOV
When I awoke my body was wrapped completely around Edward's. His legs were tangled in mine and his arms were around my waist. My arms were wrapped tightly around his neck, and my head was leaning against his. At that moment, I wanted nothing but to stay in the position, then a certain blonde went through my mind.
Attempting to wiggle out of his grasp, he held me tighter and moved his head to nuzzle my neck. I froze and fought the urge to hold him just as tight.
Edward is dating Tanya.
Edward has a girlfriend.
Edward has had sex with said girlfriend.
That was enough to make me want to shove him off, but I didn't. My head was telling me to let him go, but my heart was saying another thing. I took a deep breath and just relaxed, trying to fall alseep once again
----
" Aw, Carlisle look. Isn't that so sweet? Their cuddling."
" Darling, I know. But, Tanya."
Once I became slightly alert, but in a inconspicous way, I realized the new position that I was in. I was laying on my back and Edward was on his stomach, his right arm was bent and his elbow was below my belly- button and bent up where he pushed my shirt up right under my bra. My right leg was resting over the back of his leg. My left arm was over my chest and resting on his shoulder. My face was what I think only a few inchs from his, I could feel his breath against my chin.
" If Charlie saw this..." Esme trailed off. " How can Edward be so blind? They are just so adorable together it breaks my heart. We'd better leave before they awaken."
Edward was blind, how could he not see anything more in my eyes then just friendship for him. Now, I wouldn't say we were adorable together. I am so plain and Edward just isn't. He is gorgeous and though I think I am pretty, I could never compare to Tanya.
I felt Edward shift beside me, his leg that was under mine bending upwards. He let out a strange grunting noise, signalling he was awake. He shifted a moment moving his head to rest in the crook of my neck.
" So warm," he whispered sleepily, burying his face deeper.
" Edward," I whispered.
" Hmm?"
I shifted, making his hand below my bra, move up. " Edward, please get up." I murmured shakily.
Normally, I wouldn't feel uncomfortable with the fact that his hand was on my chest, but when he touched me, as normal, Tanya would pop into my head, reminding me he had someone already. I wouldn't be opposed if she wasn't in the picture of course.
He shot up in bed quickly. Once realizing where his hand was he whipped it back.
" Oh my god. Bella, I am so sorry. That was highly inappropriate and I didn't do it on purpose." he spluttered.
I ran my hand nervously through my hair " It's fine."
A deep red blush covered my face and I looked down at my hands.
" I'm embarassed, too. I am so sorry, I can't believe I touched..."
" Really, don't worry about it."
EPOV
So fucking warm. That's what I was feeling all around me. I burrowed my face deeper into it, sighing quietly in contentment. This was something that I could definately live with for the rest of my life and be happy. It was like laying on a fucking cloud as the sun beamed down, warming me.
" Edward," a dream like voice whispered.
" Hmm?" I murmured, still basically asleep.
The warmness shifted and then I heard the voice once more. Couldn't it just shut up and let me sleep in this goddamn warmth and comfort.
" Edward, please get up." the voice murmured shakily in response.
I was now fully alert, and full well knew what my hand was laying on, and who's it belonged to. I whipped my hand off Bella's chest, which was basically showing because it looked like my hand had made it ridden up during the night.
I had been laying on my stomach and her leg was ontop of mine. I couldn't believe that I had actually touched her like that. Now if she wasn't wearing a bra, then that would of been awkward as hell. She seemed nervous though.
" Oh my god. Bella, I am so sorry. That was highly inappropriate and I didn't do it on purpose." I spluttered quickly, trying to make the situation better.
She ran her hand through her wild hair " It's fine."
Her cheeks flamed up in a bright red blush, washing over her cheeks and her neck. I sighed, pacing around her room and piching the bridge of my nose. What could I say to make it better? She was my best friend, I should know this. But the situation was foreign when it came to her and I.
" I'm embarassed, too. I am so sorry, I can't believe I touched..."
" Really, don't worry about it." she answered quickly
" Iz-"
She laughed " Just shut up, okay? We were in a compromising position, but nobody saw it. When I was fourteen you felt me up while I was sleeping."
I groaned at the memory.
" Yes, but you weren't as..." I trailed off, motioning to her chest.
" Developed?"
Where the hell was this new found courage come from?
BPOV
Why aren't I blushing?
I basically gave words from him to choose from, he just kept pinching his nose and doing what Edward does best; mumbling and stuttering. He did it constantly when he was embarassed or caught doing something.
He scratched the back of his head " Um. Yeah."
I laughed and stretched my arms above my head " Seriously, Edward. I really don't care so let's just drop it. It's not like I would tell anyone about it."
Edward nodded and stared at me, well, more like my abdomen. I stared at him, confused.
" Your shirt." he choked.
I look down to see that I was basically flashing him my bra. I blushed and fixed my tanktop. Out of all the bra's I decided on a push-up. Now if he wanted to stare, then that was fine. I did have a pretty nice display if I say so myself.
I've never been conceited but Alice and Rose constantly rave how jealous they are. When I was fifteen I just wanted them to go away, but then again, if it got Edward's attention, effectively making him attracted to me. Why the hell not?!
God, I am such a idiot. He has a girlfriend. Tanya? Don't you remember her?
It's not my fault he is so damn sexy.
Authors Note-
So, did anybody see Remember Me? Well I did at 10:20 this morning, I gave up damn sleep just to see it.
****************SPOILER ALERT!*****************SPOILER ALERT!****************
I basically knew what was going to happen in the movie at the end, but actually seeing it happening was just entirely heartbreaking. When Tyler (Robert Pattinson) was in the office, I kept mouthing ' Oh, shit. Get out of there. Get the fuck out of there', it was in the category. Besides it being sad about the brother and the neglected sister, I thought it was quite funny. Aiden was quite the catch. Yes, I cried just a little. But Robert Pattinson and Emile De Ravin are amazing actors and I can't explain in words how good the movie turned out to be.
Review if you'd like.
