Bella's pov

Although through the whole of dinner I was a bit tense, how could I not? I was practically sitting right next to a God. I started to open up over dessert, and Edward and I got talking. I found out that we had so many things in common, it was insane! Edward was about to ask me something when she came in.

Of course he wasn't single, how could I be so stupid! Seeing this beautiful strawberry blonde just makes my stomach churn. I bolted through the hallways angry tears flowed freely down my cheeks. I wasn't really angry at the fact he has a girlfriend, but more of why I let myself to think this Adonis god would have some interest in me.

"Hey Bells, you okay?" I heard Rose's soft and comforting voice approach me.

"Yep" my voice was surprisingly strong and confident. I wasn't going to let a guy get into my way of enjoying my experience.

"You sure? I can come back to the room with you?" Rose always saw through me.

"No, no, stay, I'm just a little tired from the travelling and such, I'll see you later kay." I knew she was dying to spend time with Edward's older brother, and I couldn't be the thing that was holding her back.

I hastily got back to my room got changed into a tank top, cardigan, some sweatpants and my uggs. When I got to the deck there was no one apart from a few crew members cleaning up the deck bar. I plugged my iPod in and just let the sea breeze brush through my hair, it was nice although the breeze was slightly chilly.

All of a sudden I felt a jacket wrap itself around my shoulders "Jesus Chri... Oh hey Edward..."

He chuckled lightly "I..uh didn't mean to startle you, you looked a bit cold out here so I came to give you this jacket."

"Umm... yeah thanks."

We stood there in silence for a while, and I heard him take a deep breath and started to saying.

"I wanted to apologise about what happened earlier in the..."

I cut him short "It's nothing at all."

"Bella, you're an incredible woman, and the way we talked in there just made me feel like I'm human again. Its as if I had put this mask on to pretend I'm something I'm not for my whole life and when we talked it was..."

He cut himself off, I was confused as what he was about to say. Nevertheless he was rambling on, and everytime I tried to stop him, he kept rushing his words out. It was as if he was afraid of what I would say next.

"Bella I really value our friendship... if we have one...I don't blame you if you want to stay away from me, but I can promise I will do everything in my power not to hurt you. Please just give me this chance to show you who I am."

When he finally stopped, he stared at me. Of course it was then when I just realised he was waiting for an answer.

"Yeah, umm Edward, of course I want to be friends, and don't take this the wrong way, but I don't think we could ever going to be just friends."

His head fell as the words at the end of my sentence hang between us. I desperately wanted to look back into his eyes and assure him that I wanted so much more than friendship. I wanted to be that girl inside the hall, who gets to kiss him and have his arms securely wrapped around her waist.

"No, umm I agree." The words that came out of his mouth, shattered my insides. Did he actually think I don't want to be with him? Even if it just means that we're friends?

A large lump was foaming in my throat, and all of a sudden my mouth was dry.

"Edward, I think we should just call it a truce." My voice cracked a bit.

"A truce?"

"Yeah like friends, but not exactly friends." I started to feel the exhaustion take over me, and my feet were starting to feel like lead.

"Sure, Bella... I'll see you around." Before I could say anything else he bolted off.

I stomped my way back to the room only to find Edward's jacket still hanging from my shoulders. I drifted off into a restless sleep, not knowing what will happen tomorrow.

That night was the first time in a long time I had thought about Jacob Black.


Dun... Dun... DUNG!
