Chapter 3
Disclaimer: I forgot about it! But Twilight is owned by SM. I only own this plot and I play around with her characters

Okay dear readers of mine, if you are wondering what is my schedule for updating, I don't have one (smiles sheepishly) as I am very busy and will update only when I have the time. Sorry! And please, review! Give me at least 10 reviews for this chapter okay?
BPOV
Staring up at the ceiling, I lay on my bed at home. I missed Alice and Edward already. Alice and I had become great friends and had exchanged numbers and emails.
Although Edward had said I was to be on leave for the next couple of days due to my slight concussion, I was definitely going back to work on Monday.
Flashback
"Bella! You know the latest news about the new colour for the iPhone?" Alice asked enthusiastically. Alice was the walking dictionary for the latest fashion trends or the latest buzz. Talk about being a nurse.
"Well, no. Alice, you know I don't bother to keep up with these right?" I sighed inwardly.
"I do know, being your best friend and all. But seriously Bella, I need to ask you a question."
"What?"
"Do you like Edward?" Alice whispered to me about as soft as a megaphone.
"Well… y-yes." I stammered and blushed, feeling the heat radiate across my cheeks. It was as if my blood spreading on my cheeks were holding a sign that screamed "I LOVE EDWARD" and waltzing slowly across the dance floor which were my cheeks.
"I knew it! I knew it from the moment I saw you that you and him were fated!" Alice screamed – literally. "Say it, I love Edward"
"Are you crazy? Alice you must be out of your mind!"
"Just. Say. It. If you don't I will personally drag you to my house and give you a complete makeover - "
"Fine! I love Edwa-"
I stopped, as the door creaked open and there stood the man of my dreams. His face was completely void of emotion, yet behind his eyes, I could see that he was shocked. "Well, I heard some screaming here, so I decided I would come and check you know?" Edward said, giving me his crooked smile.
"Hey Eddie!" Alice called in greeting. I could see that Edward really hated that nickname.
"Hey pixie!" He sarcastically said. This annoyed Alice to no end. I sized up Alice and busted out laughing. Alice was really like a pixie. Short, with spiky black hair. You just have to imagine the wings. Oh yes and don't forget the fairy dust.
"Whatever. I'll leave you two alone now. Bye Bella!" Alice sashayed out of the room and I swore she winked at me. Edward turned back to me and did his routinely checks. His hand brushed past my hair and my arm as I started swooning inwardly.
"Ok Bella, you will be discharged around noon tomorrow since you are fine." Edward said, as he wrote down some stuff on my clipboard. "Do you live in Phoenix?" I blurted out. Oops, that question was meant for Alice actually. He stared at me and said "Nope, I actually live in Forks, I'm just stationed here for the time being. I will back there around in a month's time. I can't stand the heat here!" he complained, as his eyes turned puppy like.
Laughing, I said, "Well, I live in Forks too!" and the next thing I saw was something I would never forget for life.
He stared at me and said, "That would be awesome"
End of flashback
I sighed, there was still a month left before Edward and Little Miss Pixie came back to Forks. I realised it was a mistake to give Alice my email. Other than the occasional greeting and stuff, she spammed my email to no end with discounts for clothes, shoes, designer bags and even signed me up for some stupid shopping spree competition with her when she got back!
That pixie was really crazy.
-Time skip-
"Bella can you please email me the information for our upcoming event?" Angela yelled. "Sure no probs!" I yelled back. My job is at WHP (Whitlock-Hale Publications). Swiftly attaching the document, I sent it to Angela right away.
"Hey Bella," a Southern-accented voice greeted me. That was no other than Jasper Whitlock, the co-founder of WHP. "Hey Jasper!" I said as I continued typing on my computer. The whole company was hyper-because-of-an-overdose-of-jelly-beans at the moment, as this was our first event where all of our writers, including the famous author Emmett McCarty would be present for an exclusive meet and greet session. Of course, by now, the whole world knew that Rosalie Hale, Jasper's sister and co-founder of WHP, was engaged to Emmett.
Rosalie and Jasper were half siblings, their father had a wife and a mistress. Rosalie was the official sibling while Jasper was the illegitimate one. But both had grown up together as Jasper's mother had died during childbirth. They were just so close to each other. Nobody knew about their history except for the staff of WHP.
WHP was just founded about 4 years ago, and groomed many best-selling authors like Emmett, whose books were on at the No.1 spot for 43 weeks. His best-selling series, the Dawn Forever saga, was still hot on the market despite it being only the second book out of four books. Impressive, huh?
Being the personal assistant of Jasper Whitlock, it was very busy for me. Schedules, meetings, blah blah blah. I counted my lucky stars that I was the PA for Jasper and not Rosalie, whose PA is Angela. Poor Angela who has to deal with Rosalie's tempers whenever something goes wrong. Only Jasper could deal with Rosalie during one of her tempers and save Angela.
Jasper's voice crackled through the intercom "Hey Bella can you please go to the Cow Shed and takeaway a medium well steak for me please? With a baked potato with all the fixings at the side. Oh and you can get yourself one too, I'll pay for you."
"Sure thing Jasper and thank you very much" I said. I squealed in excitement. The Cow Shed had the best steaks in town but they were very costly. Even after I had gotten my first paycheck I treated myself only to McDonalds'. I saved up every penny I earned to get myself the apartment I was staying in.
Grabbing my phone and purse, I thought of the perfect lunch I was going to have.
I could never be more wrong.
A/N: See! I gave you a longer chapter yay! (claps hands)
