I OWN NOTHING but a few ideas
Previously…..
'Hey guys, Hi Bella'
I peeked through my fingers to see Edward smiling at me.
'Hi Edward'
Everyone was looking at us with a confused expression on their face.
I looked at Jasper and pointed at Edward, 'Elevator Jerk' I explained.
He burst out laughing and said 'Are you serious?'
Edward arched an eyebrow and said, 'Elevator Jerk?'
Sweet thing?
To make the whole ideal worse Jasper thought that it was his responsibility to tell everyone else what was going on. The whole time Edward didn't take his gaze off me and I started to feel uncomfortable.
'What?!!' I demanded
'You're so cute when you're embarrassed' Everyone else was still laughing and didn't hear him or see me blush.
'..and when you blush' He said and grinned at me. His grin was slightly crooked which made it even more irresistible. I found my icy facade was quickly melting. I snapped out of my daze and tried to steer the conversation away from the whole 'elevator business'.
'So guys, is there a mall around here?' I asked.
'Yeah, there's like a hundred. Why? Do you have to go shopping?' said Rosalie.
'Yeah, I have to buy some paint and a few necessities'
'Can we take you PLEASE?? I know we've only just met but…PLEASE?' Alice was bobbing up and down with excitement. Who was I to take away her happiness and they seemed nice enough.
'Ok, sure' I replied
With a huge grin plastered on her face, she asked, 'Guys wanna come?'
'God no, said Emmett
'No thanks Alice' said Jasper
She looked at Edward for an answer. 'Er no, I better not' He said
'Fine, fine, we'll have a girly afternoon. Omg we can get a mani and pedicure and we have to check out this new shoe store, I heard it's to die for'
'Ooooo I really need some new shoes, so that's perfect' said Rose clapping her hands together in delight.
I just had to smile at their excitement.
'Would you guys be able to give me directions home when we finish?' I asked
'Sure!' said Alice who was still beaming.
'Ok, I better text Jake' I said more to myself than to them.
I got out my phone and texted him.
Hey Jake
I'm going to the mall this afternoon so I don't need you to show me the way home.
Bella x
A second later my phone buzzed.
Hey bells
I was just thinking of you
Ok I'll see you later sweet thing (A/N pronounced sweet thang)
Love Jake xxxx
Sweet thing? LOVE Jake? The moment I read it I blushed.
'Bella, are you blushing?' asked Edward.
'Eh no of course not' I replied.
'Omg she is too, what did the text say?' demanded Alice.
Before I had a chance to respond Emmett snatched my phone out of my hand and held it high enough that I couldn't reach it with my arms.
'Emmeeeetttttttt' I screeched 'Give it baaaack'
He threw the phone to Jasper who read it in a really sappy girly voice.
'Hey bells
I was just thinking of you …
Ok I'll see you later sweet thing
Luuuuurve Jake xxxx
'SWEET THING! He calls you SWEET THING' Exclaimed Emmett
'Shut up Emmett! It's not funny' I yelled.
They all nodded their heads in agreement but keep snickering.
'So, who's Jake Bella?' asked Alice, with a knowing smile on her face.
'My neighbour and before you ask THAT'S ALL'
'Whatever you say' she said with a wink, 'So what school does he go to?'
'Kingsley College, its somewhere near he..' I was cut off by Jasper
'Wait a sec, his names Jacob and he goes to Kingsley College, is his last name Black, by any chance?'
'Yeah, do you know him?' It would be so much easier if they knew each other already.
'Jacob BLACK?' Edward said with utter disgust.
'What, what!' No one answered me.
Finally Rosalie came to the rescue and answered me, ' Er.. Edward and Jacob don't really get along'
'Why?'
She looked at Edward. I turned to look at him and repeated myself, 'Why?'
'Jacob Black is dead to me' He muttered.
'You're so immature, Jake is one of the nicest people I've met' I defended.
'Can we not talk about this' He said, his fingers pinching the bridge of his nose. Urghh why should I just drop it.
'Why don't you go sit with Emma, you seemed to enjoy her company' I said still angry.
'Dearest Bella, so much to learn, she's not a priority, don't you remember?'
He got up from the table and even had the nerve to wink at me.
A/N Hey guys, I know its short but I updated in a day AGAIN! I'm on a roll :] PLEASE let me know if you have any suggestions about why Edward hates Jacob, I can't think of anything good.
