Ahhhhh! *dodges rotting fruit... and people*
I'm so so so so so so so so so so sorry - I've had so many exams, then writers block, then holiday, then MORE writers block, but if there is anyone left reading this story, here is chapter 6...
So - on with the show...
DISCLAIMER: NO MATTER HOW MUCH I WANT TO I WILL NEVER OWN TWILIGHT!
B.P.O.V:
The drive back to my house was pretty silent, but it was a comfortable silence. The kind you get with your mom or dad, Edward looked like he was going to faint from exhaustion and I didn't blame him. My truck chugged along all the way home, and I randomly waved out the window at people I knew, while contemplating how physically attracted I seemed to be to Edward – but hey, he was a good looking guy! I couldn't help it.
After an hours drive we pulled up outside my house and my jaw hit the floor – what the hell.
I jumped out my truck and stormed over to the other car that was parked outside my house – momentarily forgetting about Edward in my fit of rage and sadness. I heard Edwards' door slam and the wheels of his suitcase along the pavement.
"What" I hissed through gritted teeth so Edward wouldn't hear, "Are you doing here?"
"What?" Jacob questioned, "Couldn't I come and visit my girlfriend?" He raised his eyebrows as Edward came over to stand behind me.
"Hi" He said awkwardly, holding out his hand, "I'm Edward Cullen, please to meet you" I was amazed at his politeness.
"Yeah whatever" Jake murmured, turning his attention back to me, "So how about we catch a movie tonight babe?"
"Jake!" I hissed in shock.
"What?" He whispered, scuffing his toe against the pavement, "I thought maybe we could talk about 'us'"
My resolve and the memories of his rudeness disappeared.
"Sure Jake that would be great" I turned to Edward, "You don't mind do you?"
Edwards face lit up into a crooked million dollar smile that made my heart pound against my rib cage.
"No – it's no problem" He grinned.
"Cool" Jake smiled, "I'll pick you up around seven"
"Alright"
He kissed my cheek, and I hated the fact that there was no spark – nothing. Not even a little twinge. I grimaced as he left.
"Sorry about that" I apologized to Edward.
"No need" He yawned, "But can I ask one favour?"
"Sure" I giggled.
"Can I get some sleep?"
I smiled and nodded, letting him into the house. I led him up to the spare room, which was a pitiful excuse of a 'room'. It was small and cramped and barely fit the bed and wardrobe – I felt guilty that he had to sleep in here, but I don't think he'd like my purple room complete with posters of my favourite girl bands, which were seriously outdated, as the posters were from kids TV programs that I watched when I was eight, I just couldn't be bothered to take them down.
"So, this is, erm, your bedroom" I muttered, feeling the familiar blush creeping onto my cheeks. I heard Edward chuckle.
"Thank you Bella"
I smiled, "Well, erm, I'll leave you to it then"
I left the room and headed to mine. I closed the door and collapsed onto my bed – why did Edward have to be so damn good looking? I sighed heavily. His smile was perfect, his hair was perfect, his body was perfect, and his eyes! His eyes were just amazing; I could see myself getting lost in them. I glanced at my alarm clock – six o clock. I needed to get ready for my date with Jacob – I needed to focus on fixing my relationship, if anything of our relationship was left.
I padded across to the bathroom and washed my hair, letting the warm water calm my nervous and adrenaline filled body. After that task was accomplished I blow dried my hair straight and put on dark skinny jeans, blue flats and a dark blue top that had a sparkly silver neckline. I put on a little mascara, blusher and lip-gloss, I rarely wore make up except for dates.
When I'd accomplished every task it was five to seven, I spritzed on some perfume and headed out onto the landing. As I was passing Edwards room the door opened and he stepped out.
"Um, Bella?" He called.
"Yeah?" I asked, spinning around. I caught my breathe – he was only wearing pyjama bottoms, his perfect chiselled chest bare and free for me to ogle at. But I noticed the shock that flashed across Edwards' eyes as he took in my appearance, but it was quickly gone. I felt my cheeks colour again.
"I was just wondering were the um, bathroom was"
"Oh, down the hall second on the left"
"Thanks, you going on your date now?"
"Yeah – do you mind?"
"No, no, carry on; I just plan on sleeping any ways"
He gave me a reassuring smile.
"My dad won't be back until late anyway, I should be back for when he is"
"Alright, see you later"
"Bye" I whispered, just as there was a knock on the door. I carefully went down the stairs and opened the front door.
"Hey sweetie, you ready?"
"Yeah" I grabbed my coat and shouted a quick goodbye to Edward. The drive to the movies was silent and uncomfortable, nothing like the drive with Edward and I. I sighed, I was suddenly comparing everything to things me and Edward had done together, which wasn't much. We pulled into the parking lot and headed into the movie, I bought my ticket and Jacob bought his, we were going to see some chick flick. We sat down and Jacob put his arm around me. I smiled, but I felt uncomfortable. Jacob's arms were not built for me. Wow. That was deep.
The movie started and I kept my arm trained on the screen. The girls were perfectly airbrushed and, well, perfect. The storyline was the same as every other chick flick, but hey, it kept my time occupied. But not my mind. My thoughts soon turned back to Edward. His eyes. His chest. His hair. The way he spoke, he was so polite, it was almost sinful. Jacob didn't deserve Edward's politeness, yet Edward was still good mannered today.
Half way through Jake said he was going to go and get some more popcorn. I nodded and he left. While he was gone his phone buzzed, that was in his jacket pocket. I looked around, maybe I shouldn't have done it, but I did. I picked his phone up and checked the text.
'Hey Babe! Can't wait to hook up tonight, get rid of your girlfriend first though! We can have some 'fun'! X'
What? I felt rage fill every part of my body. How dare he! Saying he wants to 'work on our relationship'. Work on our relationship my ass! I felt tears of anger fill my eyes.
"Got the popcorn" I heard Jake whisper.
"You ass!" I hissed.
"Excuse me?"
"I said; YOU ASS!" I screeched, "You've been cheating on me!"
I took the popcorn out of his hands and tipped it over him, people turned around in their seats to stare at the spectacular scene that was my break up.
"We're through!" I spat, pushing past him.
"Bella! Wait! Bella!" He called after me.
But I fled from that cinema like it was the epicentre of the plague. I forgot I didn't have a car so I just kicked off my shoes and legged it, I fell and sprained my ankle, so I ended up doing some kind of spastic, limping run. It took me twenty minutes to get home, and by then my anger had dissolved into pain, sadness and heartbreak. My first real boyfriend and he had been banging another girl behind my back! I mean, of course, I hadn't even had sex with him yet, actually, I've never had sex with anyone period. That was probably why he was doing it – he had 'needs'. I slammed the front door behind me, my loud sobs echoing around the empty house. I ran upstairs, but before I could make it to my room a strong pair of arms caught me round the middle. I screamed. Then remembered Edward. Then dissolved back into my sobbing.
"Shhhhhh" I heard Edward whisper. He carried me to my room and sat on the bed cradling me against his chest. I was such a baby; here I was, crying onto some guy I didn't even know! But Edward just held me, he never teased me, he never mocked me, he just held me. I don't know how long I cried, and I knew I looked like crap, and to make matters work my ankle was throbbing painfully. Finally, the tears stopped, and I swore I would never shed another tear over Jacob Black – ever.
"Are you ok?" Edward whispered.
I nodded and wriggled out of his embrace, he gave me a sad smile and I returned it with a watery one.
"Wanna tell me what happened – you don't have to"
"Jacob" I spat, "was..." I took a deep breathe, and looked into his eyes, they shone with genuine care, sympathy, the guy in front of me really did want to make it all better. So the words just tumbled out of my mouth, everything, Jacob hitting me, cheating on me and Jacob just generally being an ass.
"Bella" Edward hissed. His tone surprised me, his usual polite tone was mean and came out through clenched teeth, his eyes were dark and his face contorted with rage, "Jacob Black is obviously not worthy of your love, he is a cheating jerk and you deserve better, you always will"
I found myself smiling, and I leaned in and hugged Edward, then I heard tyres on gravel and a car engine cut off, my dad was home.
"That's Charlie" I sighed.
Edward grinned at me.
"Ready to meet the parent?" I joked.
So, there you go...
I hope you like it!
Bella was never gonna be with Jacob coz, I frankly, HATE JACOB!
No offense to Jacob lovers!
I don't think he will be in the story much anymore, maybe a little, I don't know.
I will update by this Sunday - swear!
I know I'm in no position to ask favours - but can you please review?
Thanks!
