Locked in!

It was Friday. I couldn't wait for the weekend.

I was sitting in Biology, my last lesson of the day. I was absentmindedly doodling on my notepad planning what I was going to do this weekend; I had a few plans with Jessica and Angela. We had planned to see a movie on Saturday night, I was thinking about which movies were on to choose from when my thoughts were interrupted.

'So Bella' a soft velvety voice came from the seat next to me.

I turned to face Edward Cullen, my biology partner. To say he was good looking was an understatement. He was gorgeous. He had beautiful emerald green eyes, and bronze hair which was always arranged in a messy order. He was usually very quiet and didn't really speak to anyone except his family but occasionally he spoke to me, maybe because I was good friends with his sister Alice or maybe just to be polite seeing as he had to sit next to me everyday. However it always brought a smile to my face whenever he spoke to me, it kind of made me feel special. I guess you could say I had a little crush on Edward.

'Yeah Edward?' I answered smiling politely at him.

'Your friends with Alice right?' He asked.

'Yeah I am, why?' I replied a little confused.

'Well, its just it's her birthday this weekend' Oh shoot I had forgotten about that.

'Oh yeah' I replied trying to make out that I hadn't completely forgotten about it until he just mentioned it. I would have to go to the mall and get her something tonight.

'And well to be honest I don't have a clue what to get her' Edward carried on with what he was saying. At least I wasn't the only one who hadn't brought her anything yet.

'Oh really, well I haven't gotten her anything yet, I was thinking of going to the mall tonight' I said honestly

He nodded slightly and smiled.

'I was hoping you'd say something like that' He paused and grinned at me quickly before he started talking again. 'Well, erm, this will probably sound pretty rude, but do you think that maybe well, I could come with you just so you could give me a few ideas of what to get Alice' He looked at me expectantly.

What! I couldnt answer quick enough. 'Yeah, no, yeah, sure that would be good' I said quickly and I felt my cheeks reddening as I stumbled over my words.

His mouth broke into a gorgeous crooked grin which made me a little breathless.

'Thanks Bella'

'Sure no problem' I said trying to sound calm and cool.

He turned back to face the front of the room again. I did the same and tried to concentrate on the rest of the lesson. I tried to shrug off the fact I would be going out with Edward after school, he just wanted me to help him get a present for his sister, no big deal. Just two friends hanging out after school. I tried not to think about the fact that nearly every girl in the school had a crush on Edward, not that he ever dated anyone he just kept himself to himself, but the fact that I would be going out with him, alone, just the two of us, would make me the envy of a lot of girls in the school. And I couldn't help but feel a little special that he asked me; I mean Alice had a lot of friends.

Bella stop! I had to stop myself thinking too much into it, so I concentrated on the lesson; well I tried to at least.

When the lesson ended I started to pack up my books and put them in my bag, I was putting away my notepad when Edward spoke again.

'So did you want me to pick you up at about 5 tonight?' he asked politely smiling at me.

'Erm, yeah 5 sounds good to me' I smiled back at him

'Great' He said over his shoulder. His phone beeped as he walked out of the room. I sighed and smiled to myself as I put the rest of my books in my bag.

'Oh and Bella' Edward reappeared at the door; making me jump and dropping one of my books causing it too land on my toe.

'Ouch!' as I automatically bent down to rub my foot better. Edward was at my side in a few seconds picking up the book I'd dropped.

'Sorry Bella, I didn't mean to make you jump' He said his head was on the same level as mine just a few inches away, his face was apologetic.

'Oh its ok, it wasn't your fault I'm just extremely clumsy' I replied honestly as I started to stand up, but I lost my balance and started to fall forward bumping heads with Edward. He caught me and stood me upright before rubbing his head, whilst chuckling.

'I see what you mean' He said laughing.

'I told you' I replied looking at the floor as I blushed insanely.

'Is your head ok?' He asked as he reached out and rubbed my forehead gently with his thumb.

I just stood there staring at him while his thumb made soothing circular motions on my forehead. I realized that I hadn't answered his question, so after about a minute of staring at him like some kind of freak I quickly replied.

'Yeah…yeah I'm fine, thanks. I smiled quickly and he dropped his hand from my head to rest it limply by his side.

'So anyway what were you going to say before all of this' I said waving my hands about motioning to the book in his hand.

'Oh I was going to tell you that Alice just text me and asked me to invite you to her birthday party.'

'Erm sure when is it?'

'Tonight, she doesnt give much notice does she?' He asked chuckling quietly.

'She certainly doesnt, but I think I can come, I mean I dont have any other plans other than with you, so yeah you can tell her i'll be there' I told him.

'Great, i'll let her know' He smiled his crooked smile again before adding mockingly:

'Erm, do you think you can manage to get to your truck without falling over?'

'I think I'll be ok, cant promise anything though' I said blushing but telling the truth, I probably would fall over before I got to my truck, I can pretty much trip over anything, including air.

'Good, so I'll see you at 5 then?' he asked handing me my book back to me.

'Right yeah, 5, ok see you then' I said as I took the book and put it in my bag.

'Bye Bella' He smiled as he turned and walked out of the classroom.

'Bye' I replied trying my best to sound as casual as possible as I threw my bag over my shoulder and made my way out to my truck.
