A/N:

In this story the character names belong to Stephenie Meyer but the inspiration and chapter titles come from William Shakespeare's epic tale, Romeo & Juliet.

Chapter 164. Nay, if thy wits run the wild-goose chase.

Bella handed Mrs. Cope the flour she'd 'gone to buy' and ascended the stairs to her room in a dream-like state. Edward was more deliciously sweet and romantic than anyone she'd ever met; her heart was still beating double-time from the kiss he'd laid on her as he'd dropped her off round the corner.

Her happiness was short-lived when she found her mother sitting on her bed with a thunderous expression, and obviously waiting for her.

"Whose car was that you were getting out of just now?" her mother asked, deceptively quietly.

"A friend from school gave me a lift."
