Here's the 3rd chapter….
"So what do you think?" I ask nervously
We were currently in front of my house and Edward was checking out my outfit to make sure it just the right level of sexiness.
"Hmm well…honestly I think you under did it. Why don't you unbutton one more button let your hair down and…never mind that's perfect"
"Are you sure?"
"Positive remember baby steps"
We get into his car and head for school.
I take a deep breath.
Come on Izz Bella don't be a coward.
"Um Edward I uh have uh something to say"
"…."
"Ok what is it?" he asks when I don't continue.
"Well you see I was thinking over the weekend and there's something I forgot to say" I pause.
Come on Bella get it over with.
"I know you're probably gonna laugh in my face but I HAVE to say it or else it'll nag at me. Edward you can't fall in love with me"
It's quiet for like 5 seconds before his laughter breaks out.
I knew it.
"Oh please Bella you" he laughs "you actually" he laughs again "you actually think that I" he laughs again
"Don't flatter yourself Bella you aren't my type so don't worry but you can't fall in love with me either" he says seriously
"Don't worry, it won't happen" I say irritated.
"Really? And why are you so sure?"
"Because…" I couldn't tell him the truth he would laugh at me again "For a lot of reasons"
"Really?"
"Yes" I say in a final tone.
It's quiet for the rest of the ride.
"Ok so we're about to go into the school parking lot, which by now is full of students, are you sure you want to do this?"
"Yes" I say
"Ok so remember you're now in love with me"
"Got it. Let the show begin" I say
He gets out of the car and comes over and opens my door.
Wow he can be chivalrous. I'm surprised.
"I did a quick scan of the lot" he says stroking my cheek while looking into my eyes.
Wow he's good.
I do the same and look into his eyes as well.
Wow they're so green.
"Damn you are good aren't you?" he says impressed.
I just smile wider.
"Anyway as I was saying" he continues to stroke my cheek and his eyes go down to my lips I follow his example and look at his. "There seem to be a lot of people present and don't you dare look. Plus your friends have an excellent view" he smiles and licks his lips and looks back up to my eyes "shall we give them a good show?" he asks smiling wickedly
"Lets" I say nervously
"Get ready" he says leaning in.
He proceeds to give me one of the hottest kisses I have ever had and if I could see it I'm sure it would be one of the hottest I have ever seen.
I have to make myself shut off my mind so I don't push him off of me. I force myself to move my lips against his and I can almost loose myself and forget. Almost.
He pushes his tongue into my mouth and grabs my wait and pushes me against him.
I hear wolf whistles close by.
Guess Edward's gang just joined us because no one else would dare.
After a couple more seconds he pulls away.
I have to admit that though I was slightly repulsed it was also a very good kiss.
It takes me a second to realize it's dead silent. They're all shocked a couple even have their mouths open.
"You can all close your mouths now" Edward says in a cheery tone.
"Ed…Edward wh..what are you doing with little Ms. Popular?" a guy asks
I look down mainly because I'm scared but I figure it's also good for show. I look embarrassed and like the shy girlfriend.
"I'm only going to say this once. Her name is Bella" he says in a scarily serious tone. "And she's my girlfriend" he says grabbing my hand.
I finally dare to look up and I see that some of them are still in shock.
Should I say something?
"Hi" I say nervously
"You aren't serious are you?" says a tall blonde with blue eyes.
Rosalie.
I gulp.
She's one of the scariest girls in his gang. When Tanya left it was quickly rumored that it was Rosalie who had taken her position in the gang and in his bed.
I didn't like the way she was looking at me like I was an insect.
I tried to hide behind Edward but he pushed me forward.
"I'm very serious Rose Bella is now my girlfriend"
"Is this where you've been all weekend? With her" she asks raising an eyebrow
She chuckles
"I can't believe you're letting you're letting your dick cloud your judgment. You can't honestly believe that Bella has what it takes to be your queen"
"No Bella will only be my girlfriend"
He turns me towards him and caresses my cheek.
I lean in as an excuse to close my eyes and shut everyone away at least for a little while.
"I don't want anything to happen to her" he says and looks into my eyes for a minute before turning back to Rose.
"And that's all the explanation you get got it!" and without further a due he turns us and we head towards the school entrance.
Unlike with his gang as soon as we walked into the building, hand in hand, the whole student body started buzzing.
"omg I can't believe it! Edward and Bella? What? Where? When?"
"At Mike and Tyler's party. I heard they were drinking together and were bring all cozy and shit"
"Yeah and afterwards someone saw them leaving together"
"I thought Bella was still in love with Jake?"
"Yeah and what about Tanya? I thought Edward was still hurting over her?"
"Wait you don't think Edward left Tanya for her do you?"
"I thought it was Tanya who left him?"
"Is it just me or does Bella look hotter?"
"Huh? Yeah I think she does"
You THINK?! I knew I shouldn't have listened to Edward my change should have been drastic.
"Oh my god did you see the way he kissed her outside? Clearly he was marking his territory"
"omg they make such a cute couple!"
"Damn never knew Bella was THAT hot!"
"Ssh you better not let Edward hear you talking like that, he doesn't like guys looking at his girl"
"here we are Bella" Edward says pulling me from the gossip.
I smile at him
"Thanks Edward" I say
"You don't have to thank me it's my pleasure" he says in a low voice leaning in "I'm going to kiss you" he says even quieter since his gang is behind us.
He leans in and gives me another smoldering hot kiss.
"See you after class" he says caressing my cheek
Wow for someone who doesn't do lovey dovey he sure is doing a good job at it.
During class I got a lot of people looking at me but none of them say "hi" or even wave not even my best friend, who's in this class with me. It hurts even though she betrayed me first by accepting Tanya it hurts that she doesn't talk to me now, doesn't even look my way. It's like she's pissed at me for being with Edward how is that fair?
Maybe she's just shocked.
Yeah that's it once she gets over it she'll come and talk to you. She'll want to know the details of course but I'll just give her what Edward and I discussed the less detailed the better. I hope she recovers soon I really need a friend right now.
Edward picks me up from every class and takes me to the next one. I ask him about it at lunch since he said he wouldn't do it. He responds by saying that he thought it over during the weekend, and by the smile and laughter he tries to suppress it's obvious he still remembers my idiotic statement this morning, and that he was only doing it for a week because every relationship had a honeymoon phase.
None of my friends had even tried to talk to me. It was now clear that they were mad at me for being with Edward. They barely even looked at me and when they did there was disdain and pity in their eyes. It was good I guess because Edward informed me that I wasn't allowed to talk to any of them I could have no outside friends.
"Tanya knows the rules so she probably told them maybe that's why they haven't tried to talk to you" he said softly
"Are you trying to make me feel better?" I ask
"Of course not. I'm just informing you of the rules so you don't get in trouble…with me. Every one of my guys knows them and I don't want them to try anything against you."
"Hmm sure sounds like you're trying to make me feel better. I appreciate it but even with the rules I thought they would try since I'm their friend and all guess I was wrong. They aren't my friends….not any of them not even….Jacob: I say trying to will the tears that are threatening to fall, away.
He takes my hand and gives me a gentle squeeze.
I knew it; he was trying to make me feel better.
I take a deep breath and force a smile on my face. I'm supposed to be happy after all I have "finally found true love".
"What about you have you had any luck?"
There was no need for us to keep quiet since we were sitting alone. His guys were sitting a couple of tables down and they made sure none of the tables immediately surrounding ours were occupied.
Besides we were sitting side by side; again part of the act. We were both surprisingly good. He only had to warn me when we kissed and we were fine.
"Luck? With what?" he asks confused
"With Tanya" I sigh
I don't know why but it took him another 2 minutes to get it.
"Ooooh yeah no. no luck what so ever, but that's to be expected once the shock wears off trust me it'll work. Jacob will come back to you" he says smiling.
"So you finally believe me when I say that he loves me?" I ask smiling a bit smugly.
"No I don't but I'm hoping for your sake that you're right otherwise I'm risking Tanya's wrath for nothing" he says laughing.
"But if this works won't you and Tanya be together? That is why you're helping me isn't it?" I ask confused
"Well yeah I uh want uh….what if even after everything Tanya doesn't want me back? We don't have the history you and Jake have. We've just been together for 2 years compared to your whole lives it seems like nothing, besides I'm fairly certain that I already annoyed Tanya to last her a lifetime so…." He trails off nervously.
"Maybe we could show Tanya you're a sweet and caring guy" I offer.
"But I'm not" he says
"Well…yeah…I guess you're not but"
"I'm not going to pretend anything I'm not Bella either she wants this or she doesn't"
If he wasn't going to put any effort then…
"By the way I'm breaking up with you" he says
"WHAT! WHY! I SWEAR EDWARD"
He covers my mouth
"Ssh will you be quiet" he hisses "I wasn't talking about right now. I meant in the future when you get Jacob back. Just tell me and we'll have a huge fight and then break up ok"
I nod
He takes a deep breath.
"Damn girl next time let me finish"
"I'm sorry you just scared me" I say in a quiet voice
"It's alright Bella" he says turning to me and smiling "Your future boyfriend just walked in what do you say and we give him a good show" he asks
"Umm" is all I say before he leans in and kisses me.
Thank god I wasn't so caught off guard or else I might have pushed him off.
This kiss is just as passionate as the other 2 and when he pulls away I'm out of breath.
"Told you not to doubt my kissing expertise" he says smugly.
I playfully punch his arm show off.
He laughs
In the distance I hear a door bang.
"Guess he didn't like the show" Edward says
I look around and everyone is staring. But even with the brief look I took I know Jacob wasn't in the room anymore.
"Congratulations Ms. Swan Jacob Black is officially pissed off and maybe even jealous" he says chuckling
"How do you know?" I ask
"Well he already looked upset before I kissed you so I imagine that after I did kiss you he wasn't that happy" he laughs
