Last night was fun. Edward was there for me, like he always is, when I broke down. God I'm embarrassed! I don't know what came over me, it's not like it's the first time I've heard stories like that and I've always been able to handle it. I probably just miss Jake more than I think.

I just felt so insignificant, like I had never mattered to anyone but that's what makes it so stupid because I know Jake cares about me. He might not be in love with me but he cares for me I know that.

Knock knock

"Ms. Bella he's here"

"Thanks Gloria can you please let him know I'll be there in a sec" I said "nicely please!" I called back when I remember she doesn't like him.

I gave myself a once over before putting on my shoes and heading out.

"Hey Edward" I greeted when I got to his car.

"Hey" he said and opened my door.

"Thanks" I said getting in.

He closed the door and then went to the other side.

"So did you get in trouble last night?" I ask after a couple of minutes of comfortable silence. "I'm sorry if you did. It's all my fault" I add looking down.

"first it's not your fault because you didn't do anything and second it's not like it's the first time I've been in trouble" he said giving me a side smile "so don't sweat it"

I nodded.

"Thanks for watching a chick flicks with me" I say.

He laughs.

"you needed some cheering up and both my sister and Rose are constantly having 'bad days' and need 'a good cry' it's bullshit if you ask me just an excuse to hog the living room"

"Is…is Rosalie at your house a lot?" I ask quietly.

"She's there all the fucking time! I can't seem to get rid of her" he said sounding annoyed.

So Rosalie was always at Edward's house could it be that there was some truth to the rumors about them sleeping together?

I shook my head.

Maybe they were just friends, besides he sounded annoyed.

I shrugged

It's none of my business but what if they're sleeping together now that would ruin our plans. No Edward wouldn't do that he knows how important this is to me and he wants Tanya back right? He wouldn't risk it.

"How are things going with Tanya? I mean have you made any progress?"

He looked surprised at first but quickly got over it.

"It's going how I want it to go" he answered.

"So it's going good" I say wanting more clarification.

"You could say that yes"

Good so he's concentrating on getting her back.

I felt at ease now.

"You know you haven't kissed me in a couple days" I blurted out for some reason.

Why the hell did I say that?

"And" he asked a bit surprised.

"Well I uh think Jake and Tanya will think its suspicious you know so I think you should kiss me today but like really kiss me though."

Oh my god Bella shut up! What are you saying!

He looked at me surprised

Yeah you're not the only one.

"Ok" he responds after a while still kind of surprised.

I should just shut up now or better yet I should just go home. No I can't.

I remained quiet the rest of the way so I wouldn't say anything more.

As we got closer to the school I began to get more nervous.

Would he actually kiss me? Did I want him to?

He must've noticed my nervousness because he said "just remember that you asked for it"

"I'm fine" I lie

When we get to school he gets out and opens my door for me. Out of the corner of my eye I see the gang making its way towards us.

"I'm going to kiss you now" Edward says before leaning in and locking lips with mine.

It's just how I remember passionate. His lips move hungrily against mine and soon his tongue grazes my lower lip asking for permission, which I grant instantly. My hands go to his hair, it's very soft. He puts his hands on my waist and pulls me closer to him; we're pressed up against each other which I'm not at all sure looks very decent but it's all for Jake.

After what seems like merely seconds but must've been more I hear a lot of coughs and Rosalie says "ugh can you guys get a room already"

Edward continues to kiss me a few more minutes before letting me breathe.

We were both out of breath.

"Ugh! You guys are so gross!" Rosalie says sounding very annoyed.

"Wow never thought I'd see the day when you would lecture me about modesty" Edward says still a bit breathless.

"That should tell you how bad it was" she says before turning to me "and you, who would've thought that Ms. Princess had it in her that she, would do something like this."

"Rose leave her alone" Edward says before I can answer "and her name's 'Bella' not 'Ms. Princess' ok?"

"Whatever" Rose says rolling her eyes and heading towards school "I'm going to class to see if I can get this disgusting image out of my head"

She sounded really annoyed and angry maybe even a bit jealous and for some reason that made me happy ecstatic even.

"Jazz is your sister pmsing or something?"

"First of all gross dude!" Jasper said shuttering "and second of all she might be my sister but she's well Rose" he shrugged.

"Yeah you're right Rose is a bitch everyday"

"Come on Bella let's get you to class" he says taking my hand

"So I think that should appease them for a while" he says quietly when we're a safe distance from the rest.

"Yeah I think so too" I say quietly

"maybe we should do it again just in case" he whispers in my ear.

I shiver

"I…I don't think that's necessary" I stutter

He laughs

"Relax Bella I was just kidding"

I just nod

"Honestly though what do you said got me thinking and I think you're right we should do that, kiss I mean, a couple times a week just so Tanya and Black don't suspect. I'll make it look spontaneous and warn you beforehand so you don't push me away" he laughs but it's a different laugh not his usual one.

I wouldn't push you away.

I smile

"I've gotten used to things" I say instead.

"So you're use to me" he says seriously.

I nod.

"Has he done anything? What I mean is has he called or talked to you after gym?" he asks

"No" I say frowning.

"Look I know you don't want to hear this but for someone who loves you he certainly gave up pretty easily. Maybe you should oh I don't know move on? There are plenty of "

"no" I interrupt "I…I love him" I whisper "me and Jake are meant to be and there's no one else for me but him"

I must look so pathetic to him maybe even a little delusional but he didn't know so….and really his opinion didn't matter to me.

Then why did I feel so sad? Was it maybe because deep down he….No! Of course not!

I look up and my eyes meet Jakes. I sigh and smile, he smiles back at me.

Even though he's across the room I feel somehow connected, see I'm not delusional I wanted to say to Edward but instead I just looked away I didn't want to have 'a fight with my boyfriend'.

I thought no one had noticed mine and Jake's moment but I realized how wrong I was when lunch came around.

Edward came to pick me up like he usually did but I noticed something wasn't right when I noticed that we weren't heading towards the cafeteria.

"Edward where are you taking me?" I asked. He was practically dragging. "And where are the others?" I asked noticing that we were alone.

"Edward?" I call again when he doesn't answer; getting more scared by the second.

"Relax we're just going over there by the trees." He says calmly.

"Why" I ask not feeling reassured in the least.

"I'll tell you when we get there. I can't risk anyone hearing us."

"Edward will you just tell me please" I plead.

"Bella" he says exasperated "will you please relax! Actually you know what nevermind continue your demeanor will really sell it"

His words calm me a bit if he's talking about "selling it" then it has something to do with our plan. He won't hurt me then.

He stops when we get to the farthest tree and places us behind it.

He exhales.

"Edward what is it?"

"Look Bella I understand that you want Ja…your boyfriend back but you've got to be more subtle about how you do things"

"huh?" I ask confused.

"I'm talking about that little moment you had with him. I was going to let it go and pretend I didn't see it but Jazz noticed and came up to me and mentioned it. Now maybe I didn't mention it before but I'm a possessive and jealous guy Bella and shit like that doesn't fly with me not if I really liked you fuck even if I was just sleeping with you and didn't want anything more serious I would be pissed. Now I brought you here because we're going to have a fight"

My eyes widened.

"NO NO" he says laughing "I don't mean an actual fight just a pretend one. Heck we don't even have to scream at each other or anything, that's why we're alone by the way. How long do you think we should stay out here anyway?"

I was too shocked to answer.

"Hello" he says loudly waving his hands in front of my face "earth to Bella yoohoo anyone there?"

I shake my head.

"Sorry you just kinda shocked me ummm how long do your fights usually last?"

"with girls? Too long I think I even broke up with one once for looking at another guy" he mused.

"what!" I say my eyes widening.

"I didn't really like her thought that's why I broke up with her." He looks at me "maybe I should break up with you, that way you'd be heartbroken and he could console you. You could take advantage of that" he suggested.

"What! You can't break up with me! It wouldn't work he still sees me as a friend I mean he still hasn't realized he loves me yet"

"I don't know he's been giving you some looks that make me think otherwise"

"Really" I ask eagerly "when? Where? What looks? Edward what looks!" I demand.

"Are you telling me that you, you haven't noticed when he looks at you?" he says surprised "wow who would've thought that was possible"

"Edward! Answer me!" I yell at this point I didn't care how I looked to him.

"This morning after I kissed you, he looked really upset, and then that moment you guys shared I don't know but it seemed to me like there was something more than just support in it on his part. And….and that's all you're getting because I'm not gonna stand here and list them all"

"Thank you for telling about those" I say smiling sadly "Jake's so head strong about things that sometimes I even doubt"

"Then why don't you just move on?" he asks

"Because I can't" I'll be married to him soon. I wonder if I'll get to choose my own dress, mom hasn't called, which is unusual all on its own, but they specifically said we would marry at 18. I sigh.

I notice Edward staring at me intently.

"What" I ask suddenly feeling self-cautious

"Do you think you could cry?" he asks furrowing his eyebrows.

"What?" I ask confused.

"Well for our fight. If you could just make it look like you cried then we would be good"

"You mean like I begged? Why do I have to beg?"

"Bella weren't you listening before. When I told you I was a possessive asshole? Do you really think a guy like that would just take you back just like that without a little begging and tears? Come one you have to at least know me a little better than that"

"Fine!" I say frowning "I'll try"

"Just think of something sad. That's what my sister does when she wants to get her way or wants to get out of trouble"

"Thanks"

He shrugs.

I think back to yesterday when I felt so insignificant. Back to one of the movies we saw, '50 first dates', the guy was willing to make a girl fall for him every single day so why couldn't Jake do it at least once for me! We had known each other our entire lives god damnit!

Oh dear god!

"You ok? You looked kinda mad"

"Yeah I was just got frustrated. I concentrated on the wrong thing too long" I say smiling nervously "do I look like I was crying though?"

"Your eyes are watery and your nose is a bit red we should be good"

"Think we should head back? Lunch is about to be over and I want something to eat before class starts"

"I'm hungry too lets go" he grabs my hand and pulls me towards him and puts his arm around my shoulder.

I look at him questioningly

"We made up remember. Couples are usually more lovey dovey after a fight"

I nod

We get something to eat before heading to class.

I don't see Jasper or any of the others until after gym which is odd since they were always around.

"Listen Bella something came up and we're going to have to cancel our appointment today. Jasper will take you home ok"

"Is he still upset about before? You know the thing with Jake?"

"No Jazz is never upset. Don't worry he isn't like that he would never say anything mean to you"

"Are you sure?"

"Completely"

When I see Jasper's car I'm surprised because it's a red BMW it doesn't fit his personality it's too flashy.

Edward gives me a nice chaste kiss before saying goodbye and that he'll see me Monday.

"Your car is nice" I say

"It's not mine" he says "it's Rose's I had to ask her to borrow it when Edward told me to last night that I would be taking you to and from school"

Last night? Didn't he say that something came up?

"It's gonna cost me a lot of favors but what else am I gonna do I don't have a car."

"Sorry that you have to go through all this trouble for me"

"Don't be" he says waving it off.

"So where is Rose" I ask "why isn't she riding home with us?"

"She's riding with Edward" he says like it's no big deal.

Well maybe it isn't

"Guess she didn't want to ride home with me"

"No and forgive me for saying this but my sister doesn't really like you" he says apologetically.

"It's ok" the feeling is mutual.

"So do you guys live close Edward's house?" I ask curiously.

"Yeah but Rose is going to Edward's house if that's what you're asking"

I blushed.

"We spend so much time there it's almost like our second home more so for Rose than me. I think that's normal given the circumstances" he stops abruptly looking at me guiltily.

"Don't worry" I say with a reassuring smile "I won't ask"

"Thanks" he says looking relieved.

So Edward's house is almost like a second home to Rosalie. Could it be possible that they're together?

No it's not Bella get those ridiculous thoughts out of your head!

"Thanks" I say when we arrive to my house.

"No problem" he says smiling.

"If you see Edward later say 'Hi' to him for me and that I miss him"

"I will" he chuckles.

Why did I do that?!

Hope you guys liked it!
