Chapter 10

BPOV

I looked down 'ashamed' with myself. "I'm sorry," I said just above a whisper.

Esme was about to say something but I cut her off. "Last night was pretty stupid. I was annoyed that I'd studied super hard for my Math test and I only got 91%-" I saw Alice roll her eyes here. Bitch. "-and I felt like all my hard work was for nothing and it really annoyed me and I don't know why I did it but I just did and I'm really sorry. Please forgive me? It'll never happen again. I promise." I said pretty fast, trying to sound really nervous and apologetic.

I fidgeted and bit my lip as I looked up at Esme with sad eyes. She looked like she was struggling to stay angry with me. Eventually she melted and frowned at me.

"Oh, my poor baby!" she cooed as she pulled me into a hug. I saw Alice roll her eyes. "Don't worry, I forgive you." she pulled me back and held me at arms length. "I understand how hard it is to stay on top of your game. Next time you're feeling sad about a grade don't go doing something stupid that you'll regret later. Come talk to me, okay? I'm your mother. I'm always here for you honey."

Esme continued hugging me. It was quite annoying. She was so touchy-feely. It was gross.

"Thanks mom," I said grimacing and trying to push her away from me.

Alice was staring at me with her mouth open and her eyes glaring at me. She would never get off the hook if she did something like this. I smirked at her and then remembered something.

"Alice, I wanted to apologise for the stuff I said to you last night. You know I didn't mean that stuff, right?" I said to Alice with a sickly sweet smile. She could see the falseness in my eyes and glared at me. "In fact," I continued, ignoring her glare, "I wanted to make it up to you by going on a shopping trip with you today." I said and saw a little flicker of excitement at the word 'shopping' but she tried to keep her glare in check. I then looked up at Esme. "Is that fine?" I asked with hopeful eyes.

She smiled down at me. "Of course its fine! You girls should go out and have fun. I'll give you my credit card," she smiled at me and left the kitchen.

I then turned to look at a glaring Alice.

"What?" I asked rolling my eyes.

She was about to say something but Esme was back and handing her the credit card.

"Here you go," Esme said as she gave the credit card to Alice. "You girls go have fun!" she gave us both hugs and practically pushed us out the door.

Alice and I made our way to her yellow Porsche silently. Once we were inside she turned to look at me. I just raised an eyebrow at her. Why wasn't she driving?

"Look, I know you don't want to go shopping. So, why are we doing this?" she asked bluntly.

I gave her a cold hard glare. "Actually," I said drawing out the word, "I do want to go shopping." I rolled my eyes at her shocked expression. "What? I just need to buy a few things."

"Like what?" she asked as she started the car.

I shrugged looking out of the window. "Stuff."

"Stuff like what?" she pressed again.

I sighed and turned my head to face her. "Just stuff, okay?" I said annoyed.

She narrowed her eyes at me. "Jeez, why so angry all of a sudden?"

I rolled my eyes and just ignored her. The car was silent as we sped down the roads heading towards Port Angeles.

After quite a short drive we arrived in the shopping district of Port Angeles.

"So, which shops do you want to go to?" Alice asked as she parked her car.

I bit my lip and looked out the window at the shops around me. There were a few shops I wanted to go to, but not with Alice.

"I dunno. I guess we can just walk around," I shrugged and got out of the car.

For the next three hours I bought a bunch of clothes that Alice highly disapproved of. After one hour of her criticizing my choices I started buying things behind her back while she was in the dressing rooms. I'm just glad Alice was too focused on all the clothes and hardly payed any attention to me. But then it got annoying when I was finished with my shopping but she still wanted to carry on. I finally got her to stop and we headed to Seattle Coffee.

I loved this place. I always ordered the Mocha Freeze. It was so delicious. Alice and I sat in silence while she texted people and I read a book I just bought. I left my phone at home. I was so emerged in the book that I got a shock when I heard someone call out for me.

"Izzy! Yo, Izzy!" I heard a familiar voice say. I lifted my head up and turned around to see two people come towards me. It was some of Edwards friends that I'd met yesterday. I couldn't remember their names though. I smiled and waved at them. Alice noticed this and realised that these people were coming to us. She raised an eyebrow at me.

"Izzy?" she asked but I just ignored her.

"Hey guys," I said when they got to our table.

"Sup," the one guy said, "some of us are hanging out by the warehouse. Wanna come?"

From the corner of my eye I saw Alice narrow her eyes at me.

"Um," I glanced at her warily, "maybe later. See ya." I said dismissing them.

"Okay, but before we go," he carried on much to my annoyance, "Edward said he was tryna call you."

At that precise moment I was sprayed with coffee as Alice choked on her drink. I glared at her. She was looking at me with absolute shock in her eyes.

"Thanks," I directed to the others and they just nodded and left.

Once they were gone I picked up a napkin to wipe my face while glaring at Alice. But she didn't seem to notice.

"Bella," she started slowly. I grimaced at the name - she noticed. "Which Edward is this?" she asked but I knew she already knew the answer. "Please tell me its not Edward Masen." she said gritting her teeth.

"So what if it is?" I said nonchalant as I continued drinking my drink.

I saw her hand tighten into a fist as she glared at me. She took a deep breathe and her features calmed.

"Look, you're my sister so I'm going to try and tell you this as sweetly as possible," she said slowly. "You're a baby," she said bluntly. "And Edward Masen is the hottest senior in school. But, he's also a bad-boy. Don't associate with him. He's a terrible influence. He's into all sorts of terrible habits like drugs and alcohol." she said shaking her head as if she was disgusted by his actions.

I couldn't help but laugh at her. "You're so stupid." I said and she glared at me.

"Excuse me?"

I rolled my eyes at her. "Edward's cool," I said with a soft smile. He really was cool. No, he's amazing. The way he was so chilled in life... It was probably the one thing I liked the most about him.

Alice narrowed her eyes at me. "Why is he calling you?" she asked me.

"I dunno," I shrugged.

"Hmm," she rolled her eyes. "Since when did you guys talk? And how did he get your number?" she kept pestering me.

"He's my lab partner." I told her.

"So? That still doesn't make sense. Of all people why is he talking to you? What makes you so special?" she sounded jealous.

I laughed at her. "You're being so stupid."

"Stop saying that!" she practically yelled. A few heads turned to look at us.

I rolled my eyes. "Well stop acting like it," I said pretty annoyed. "Let's go home. I'm tired," I told her and left the coffee shop without waiting for her reply.

"What has gotten into you?" she asked as we both got into the car. "I want answers. And don't you dare ignore me. Tell me everything. Now!" she was angry as she sped down the road.

"Nothing, okay? There's nothing to tell!" I insisted.

She scoffed and rolled her eyes. "Yes there is. There's so much to tell."

"No, there isn't." I groaned and pulled out my iPod and earphones so that I could drown out her voice. I ignored her for the rest of the trip home.

Once we got home I went straight upstairs with all my bags, ignoring everybody. I got my phone and sure enough there were 2 missed calls from Edward. I felt a smile tug at my lips. He called me. I wanted to call him back but decided I would just see him at school on Monday. And for the first time I was excited to go to school for something other than learning...
