27.
I walk onto the football field for another session with Forks High's football team. This time Masen isn't with me. The kid wanted to spend the day with Alice.
I'm surprised to see Bella standing by the locker room.
What is with this girl and being everywhere I am? I mean, seriously. Yesterday she stopped by my house with muffins. It's like she's trying to worm her way into my life or something of that sort.
I know it sounds mean but I really don't want anyone to interfere in my life.
I've had enough female interference to last me a lifetime and despite the fact that this girl seems to be genuinely nice, I just want her to stay away from me.
Then at the same time, I want her to be my friend.
I'm a confusing man.
~X~
Once the coaching bit is over and done with, I make my way to Bella. "What brings you here, Ms. Swan?" I ask.
She looks up from the book she's reading and offers me a tired smile. "Is there anything wrong with that?"
"Why would you think that?"
She snaps the books shut. "Never mind. So...?"
"So?"
"I liked meeting your...uh.. Alice yesterday", says Bella. "She seems like a wonderful person."
"She is", I agree. "She gets on my nerves most of the times but you get used to the bubbly attitude once you get to know her."
"How long have you known her?"
"Nine years." I met her first and then introduced her to Jasper and they hit it off immediately.
"That's a long time", she comments. "How come you haven't gotten marr-"
Her sentence is cut short by her brother's shouts. "Edward!" he calls. "We need you here, man."
I give Bella an apologetic smile and then turn towards Riley. I wonder what she was about to ask me just before I was called for.
Oh well...
I'll find out soon enough.
I just saw Snow White and the Huntsman today and Kristen did an amazing job with the british accent. Have you seen the movie yet? I loved it!
