Hey - thanks for all the favouriting and stuff - but is it to much to ask for an itsibitsy review - even if its just - cool, I like it, or, ew I hate it - I DON'T CARE.
Anyway - thanks to those who did review - I like you!!!
So, on with the show...
Rose, Alice and I sat at the lunch table the next day, debating what to put in our letters back to or exchanges - OK, I was debating what to put, Rose and Alice were spraying their paper with perfume. I sighed, Jacob couldn't come round again last night because he had extra football practise again, so I guess I was a little bummed. OK, more than a little. I looked at my watch - oh my God, I had twenty minutes to write this letter and get it back to Mr Hanson - what do I put. I looked over at my friends, they were now scribbling furiously on their paper - perfumes abandoned, I guess they'd noticed the time as well.
I stopped chewing my pen and put the tip to the paper in front of me, and started to write,
Dear Edward,
No worries, my friends put me up to this as well - OK, first it was Alice, then Rose - who by the way, are my best friends and your friends exchanges - but their looking for boyfriends as well - and yes I am a girl. My names Isabella - but call me that and you will die painfully and slowly - call me Bella! I'm sure it will be fun meeting you, you seem nice!
Question time now - and you stole all the easy questions! Mean. OK, so, yes my friends are perverted - as you can see, well you can't, but I'm sure you get the picture. The only reason they signed up for this is the whole to meet a boy thing, but they do have spare rooms, as do I to answer your earlier question.
My hobbies, my hobbies, lets see - I USED to do ballet, with Alice, but I gave it up along time ago - I really have no co ordination, but I still go to everyone of her recitals, while my previous teacher gives me evils from behind the curtain. Not because I quit, but because of all the trauma I managed to put her through - which was a lot, I was horrible at it. I unfortunately still do cheer leading with Rosalie, because Forks is such a small school they have a join up, can't quit policy - and Rose is VERY persuasive. In that I mean she black mailed - threatening to burn all my books, she did it with Alice's wardro-. OW. Alice just hit me round the head, we're not allowed to talk of that terrible time - when she's around. OW!!! Alice is the devils child - I pity Jasper. Kidding, she is a good friend.
The only hobby I have that I like is swimming, I enjoy it, it's healthy and keeps your joints supple. Ha ha - I don't have arthritis now! Well hopefully I never will, and I'm only 17, so, but it runs in my family - so the more swimming the less of a chance of arthritis! So I guess that's another thing we have in common - evil friends!!!
I love to read - classical books are my definite favourite also, who can't resist Pride and Prejudice or Wuthering heights? I like all genres though. I love classical music as well, and when you come over you can show me your amazing piano skills, we have a stand up piano shoved in the front room - I think it's out of tune - but I'll get it tuned for when you come over! That way you can't back out of it! I like all genres of music too - but not rap, i agree with you on that front!
My questions now:
Whats the most annoying things your friends have ever done to you?
You're in collage?
What's with the year thing? Isn't it grade?
What's your favourite colour?
What's the queen like?
Now I've bored you with MY average life, I'll guess I'll talk to you soon!
Yours faithfully,
Bella.
I looked down proudly at my letter, putting it in the big brown envelope we'd been supplied with and scribbling down his address on the front of it. I looked across at Rose and Alice and they were doing the same thing. After we'd done this we all made our way to Mr Hanson's classroom, where we handed over our finished letters. We all scurried off to class after this was done as the bell decided to ring just after we had left Mr H's classroom.
That evening as I returned home I saw a Voltzwagon Rabbit sitting in my driveway, and a smile slipped onto my face as I recognised my boyfriends car and his figure hunched in the drivers seat. I parked my truck along side the road, and skipped up to Jake's car and tapped his window, making him jump. But as he recognised me a smile split across his face, and he opened the door, picking me up and twirling me around, kissing me on the nose.
"I feel like I haven't seen you in ages" I sighed,
"I know" He murmured, putting me down, "Shall we go inside?"
I nodded and opened the door. I took my school bag upstairs and into my bedroom, Jake following me. I felt his hands circle my waist and he started kissing my neck, I felt a smile slip onto my face.
Suddenly Jake's hands and lips were gone.
"Jake?" I asked, turning around to find him holding Edwards letter.
"What's this?" He asked.
"That, um...I...um" What? Why couldn't I just say,'Oh, that's just my exchanges letter from England, he'll be coming to stay in a month, now were where we?' No, I had to stutter and stumble and go bright red.
"Are you cheating on me?" He hissed - what? Had he READ the letter?
"What? No!" I snapped.
"Don't lie to me!"
"I'm not"
"I know you are - bitch!"
"I'm not, I swear!" He marched forward and grabbed my wrist, looming over me, his face steadily turning red.
"You're sleeping with him - AREN'T YOU?!"
"What!"
"YOU'RE SLEEPING WITH THIS TWAT AREN'T YOU!" He yelled - what the hell?
"NO I'M NOT - I'VE NEVER MET HIM!"
"WHY CAN'T YOU TELL ME THE TRUTH?" He snapped.
"I AM! LET GO!" I tried wrenching my wrist from his grasp as his face turned purple.
"NO - NOT TILL YOU TELL ME THE TRUTH!"
"I AM!" I felt my eyes start to steadily fill up with tears.
"DON'T YOU DARE CRY!" He yelled.
"BUT YOU'RE HURTING ME!" I snapped.
"HURT? I'LL SHOW YOU HURT BELLA!" Suddenly his other hand came out of no where and hit me across the face - it didn't hurt, but it caught me off guard.
"Did you just hit me?" I whispered, the tears spilling over.
His grip on my wrist loosened, and his face returned to normal colour. He took a step back, and I could see the regret on his face, he wanted to take it back, but he couldn't, it was to late. I touched my cheek with my hand, there was no blood, but it might leave a bruise in the morning, like I said, it hadn't hurt - I just, couldn't believe it.
"Bells, I am so sorry, I just... I just..."
"Got mad?" I whispered.
"Yeah. Bella, I'm so sorry, it'll never happen again"
I wanted to believe him, and part of me did. I shook my head, "I think you should go now Jake" I whispered.
He nodded, and we both trudged downstairs, I held the door open for him. Suddenly, his hand shot out to stop it from closing as I started to push it shut.
"Is it over then?" He whispered.
"I don't know Jake, I don't know"
He nodded mournfully, his hand slipped away from the door and I closed it. I listened to his footsteps going down the path, the door of his car slam, the engine start up and I listened to him drive away. I sighed and wiped my tears away, and went into the kitchen to make me and Charlie some dinner.
Mine and Charlie's forks scraped across our plates as we ate in silence.
"Had a good day?" Charlie asked.
"Yeah" I answered.
"Do anything interesting?"
"Not really"
"Did Jake come round?" I winced.
"Yeah"
"Have fun?"
"I suppose"
"What did you do?"
"Not much"
"Is he comin -"
"Erm Dad, I've got homework to do, may I be excused?" I interrupted.
He nodded and I went upstairs. I started on my Trig and Biology homework, this took me right up until half past nine, which is when I decided to get ready for bed. I changed into my favourite sweats and a tank top, and snuggled down into bed. Only then did I let the tears fall, and this is what lulled me to sleep.
