Chapter 2

Screw Friendship

Edward point of view

After school I quickly sped through the town of Forks in a rush to get home. I arrived home and to my satisfaction my parents were gone out as they said they were and so was Alice. My parents were away to a conference in Seattle. They were planning on staying the night and Alice was out at Jasper's and Rosalie's the night. I was stuck in the house own my own and Bella was coming over tonight. Just perfect.

I set out into the kitchen and just got some snacks for tonight along with some drinks. I left them on the coffee table in the sitting room. Then I went back into the kitchen and heated my dinner Esme had left me in the microwave. I ate my dinner quickly and went upstairs to have a shower.

After my shower I tried a bit to come my hair but then it looked even messier then before. I walked down the stairs and into the kitchen to start my homework until Bella came.

As I was doing my homework I started to think about how much Bella had changed over the summer. Her frizzy brown hair was now lovely and tameable and just wow. I just wanted to run my hands through her hair, it looked really silky. All of her bad acne cleared up too and her skin looked so soft I wanted to just touch it too. She didn't wear them huge square glasses anymore and now you can see her beautiful face and her beautiful chocolate brown eyes. She was extremely fat last year too. I know that sounds mean but it kinda is the truth, but now she has the figure of a model. Rosalie has got competition now and I think she knows it but she won't let on she knows. Her clothing has changed too and she isn't clumsy like she used to be. Oh and that tattoo on her lower back. Wow, and her gym outfit shook me up. She was truly breathtaking. She had completely and utterly changed.

After finishing my homework I checked the clock and noticed that Bella should be here by now. I waited for ages for her until I heard a car outside and then there was a knock on the door. Finally I thought

Bella point of view

When I got home I cooked dinner for Charlie and phoned him to tell him where I was going to and surprisingly enough he was fine with it. I was shocked. He was allowing me to be with a boy. Maybe he finally realised that I'm not his little girl anymore and that I have grown up.

I walked upstairs and took a long hot shower and washed my hair. I don't know why but I felt nervous about meeting with Edward this evening.

I walked into my room with a towel wrapped around me and looked at the outfit I had laid out on my bed earlier. It was a grey turtle neck with black skinny jeans, grey peep-toe shoes with my black jacket that went below my waist a bit. It was simple and friendly nothing romantic or sexy or anything like that about it. I got dressed and pulled my hair into a simple messy bun but it looked good. (Picture on profile) I was ready but had time to kill. It was only five o'clock.

I turned on my laptop and signed into messenger. A friend request popped up onto my laptop screen. I clicked it and it was from The_devil_pixie_wears_prada!

I clicked accept to find out who they were when I did, a chat box appeared. I was from The_devil_pixie_wears_prada! I accepted again and a second later the conversation started.

The_devil_pixie_wears_prada!: Hey Bella!!

Clumsy_Brunette: Um hey? Who is this?

The_devil_pixie_wears_prada!: It's me. Alice Cullen.

Clumsy_Brunette: Oh right. How did you get my messenger name? No offense or anything.

The_devil_pixie_wears_prada!: Oh em….I got it from…..I can't remember sorry!:-(

Clumsy_Brunette: Okay.

The_devil_pixie_wears_prada!: So Bella I was wondering, we should hang out sometime. Get to know each other better, yano?

Clumsy_Brunette: Yeah sure.

The_devil_pixie_wears_prada!: Yay!! I can't wait!! Do you want to come over after school tomorrow. Oh my god, do you want to join us for lunch tomorrow at our table?

Clumsy_Brunette: Yeah sure I'll come over after school but I don't know about lunch. You see today I missed most of my lunch away from my usual table so I was planning on sitting with them through all of lunch tomorrow. Maybe the next day or some thing?

The_devil_pixie_wears_prada!: Aw you're so nice to your friends!! Awwww!!! Yeah sure how about the day after? Tomorrow wait for me in the car park when school ends okay?

Clumsy_Brunette: Yeah sure no bother! =]

The_devil_pixie_wears_prada!: Oh and by the way are you dating my brother? Edward I mean.

Clumsy_Brunette: No I'm going over tonight but I told him all I want was to be friends.

The_devil_pixie_wears_prada!: Okay, but watch out though. You know how he is! Bye, chat to you later. Jasper, Emmet, Rosalie and I are going to play twister!! =D See ya! x x x x

Clumsy_Brunette: Bye, see ya!

I checked my e-mail and I had one from Renee and I quickly replied to it and logged out and turned my laptop off.

I turned and looked at the clock only to realise I was fifteen minutes late. I grabbed my phone and handbag and walked downstairs. I made sure everything was alright before I left. I walked out and locked the door and put my key in my handbag and got into my car.

I turned on my i-pod on and started to sing along as 'I hate this part' filled the car. I pulled out and started to drive to Edward's house.

Then I saw Jessica on the road walking. She didn't notice me pulling up behind her because it looked like she had earphones in her ear so I beeped the horn causing her to jump and clutch her chest panting. She definitely heard that.

"Oh my god" she started "Bella you like scared the crap outta me" she scowled playfully.

"Nice to see you too" I teased. "Do you want a lift?"

"Yeah like if you don't mind?" she asked.

"No I don't mind. Don't be silly! Hop in"

Jessica walked around and hopped in. She seemed a bit fidgety and quiet.

"Jess is something wrong?" I asked. I hadn't pulled away from where I stopped near the curb.

"You can't tell anyone okay?" she pleaded.

"I promise Jess"

"Okay. You know that boy Alex? He's one of the jocks. Well I kind of like him and I mentioned it to Tanya today and she went up behind my back and told him about it and that I had crabs and aids and other things like that" she said starting to cry.

"Oh my god! That bitch. I swear I am going to kill her" I said absolutely fuming "Sit with me and everyone else tomorrow at lunch okay? Don't be friends with Tanya. She's like that girl Regina George out of mean girls. Just trouble"

"Okay. Thank you Bella and sorry for slightly avoiding you" she said.

"Don't worry about" I said and leaned over and gave her a hug.

"So where do you want me to drop you off" I asked once we stopped hugging.

"In town if that's okay?"

"Okay" I said driving off. We talked the whole way there like old times and I enjoyed having the old Jessica back.

Just as I dropped off Jessica it turned to half past six. Half an hour late. He probably thinks I'm not coming.

I quickly drove to Edward's house ten minutes later. I had passed his house heaps of times but I was never in it. I always thought that the inside would be even better then the outside.

I parked my car, grabbed my handbag and walked up to the door and knocked on it.

After about a minute Edward answered the door. He looked nicer then usual. His hair was still messy. He wore a pair of dark wash jeans and a blue button up shirt.

"Hey Edward. Sorry I'm late. I gave my friend a lift into town and I was talking on msn and I lost track of time"

"No it's okay. Come on in" he said and motioned for me to come in and I did.

I started to undo my jacket when Edward went behind me and helped me pull it off and hung it on a clothes hook and he led me into what I assumed was the sitting room.

"I thought maybe we could hang around and watch some movies?" he said seductively and flashed me the famous crooked smile that most of the girls swooned over, now I knew why.

"Yeah sure" I smiled back.

On the coffee table were snacks and some drinks. Like I said earlier the inside was just as beautiful then the outside of the house. I couldn't quite describe it but it looked like it belonged in some famous celebrity's home.

"What type of movies do you like?" he asked.

"I don't know really. Anything at all" I shrugged.

"Okay. Make your self at home" he winked. I don't know why but I don't think that Edward Cullen was truly being himself. This whole cocky player act seemed to be fake.

He came back in a put some DVD in. He walked towards me smiling and sat down beside me. He actually came really close beside me.

"You know if you come any closer you'll end up on top of me" I said jokingly.

"I think I like that idea" he smirked.

"Yeah sure" I laughed.

The movie started and I realised it was a horror. The movie was called 'Crazy Eights'. I had seen that before and I nearly wet myself. I went with Jake to see it and I ended up sitting in his lap because I had jumped during the movie.

While the movie was playing I noticed Edward kept moving even closer to me. I knew he was a player and all but I thought sure why not have some fun? Sure so what if we end up kissing or something. It would probably end up just a one time thing and everything will be back to like it was before. Tonight I was going to have some fun. Screw the friendship thing. I moved myself a little closer to him and now the sides of our bodies were touching.

He yawned stretching his arms out and guess what? Yup he did it. He did the move. The one were you fake a yawn and stretch out and place your arm over the girl's chair.

"You are so cheesy" I said looking up at him.

"How so?" he looked down at me.

"The oh-not-so-subtle move" I smirked. I loved the colour of his eyes. They were a beautiful shade of green. I turned around to the television just when the little creepy girl came up from behind the bath to tear the girl's eyes out and I screamed and jumped shutting my eyes tight.

I heard Edward chuckle and I realised I ended up on his lap. His chuckle then turned out into a hysterical fit of laughter from him.

"It's not funny" I complained hitting him playfully. When he would shut up laughing I kept hitting him playfully. He still didn't stop. Now he was lying down on the couch clutching his stomach. I'll teach him not to laugh at Bella Swan.

I crept up beside him in between him and the couch. His laughter now died down a bit. I placed my hands on his side and pushed him off. Only one problem though. I didn't expect him to take me down with him.

I ended up on top of him. Every inch of my body was pressed up against his. He smirked up at me and then in one sift move I ended up under him and he was kind of hovering above me.

He slowly came down towards me. This was it, he was going to kiss me. I was like an excited school girl. What was I on about, I am a school girl.

He was now so close that I could feel and smell his breath. It was a bit minty. Looks like some one came prepared I thought to myself. We were just a centimetre apart and then our lips connected.

The kiss started out soft and gentle then it was a bit rough. Well not exactly rough…it was more urgent kind of. He licked my bottom lip and I parted my mouth more to let his tongue in. Our tongues massaged each other and I wrapped my arms around his neck playing with a small bit of his hair.

He pulled back a bit and placed his hands on my hips and lifted me and set us down on the couch.

I was lying on the couch and he was on top of me but he kept his weight of with one of his hands while the other fiddled with the bottom of my top. He was playing with it in his fingers.

We pulled back both of us needing air but that didn't stop him. The hand that was fiddling with my top came up and pulled the neck of my shirt down a bit and he started kissing my neck.

I tilted my head back to give him better access. He started to suck on my skin and would nip it with his teeth too. He then started kissing my lips again. While we were kissing my phone started to ring.

"Ignore it" Edward said in a husky voice

"It might be important" I said while he still kissed me. I broke apart and reached over to the coffee table to grab my handbag and get my phone from it. I flipped it open and answered it without checking the caller id.

Bella/Jacob

Hello?

Hey Bells!

Oh. Hey Jake!

I was just wondering do you want to go down with me to La Push beach on Wednesday. Me and some other guys are going to be there. We're having like a mini party.

Yeah, sure. Sounds fun, count me in.

Great and don't worry it will be.

Yeah, see ya at school. Bye Jake.

See ya Bells

I closed my phone shut and looked up at Edward who was now sitting on the couch pinching the bridge of his nose.

I threw my phone in my bag and moved over to sit beside him. He seemed frustrated or something.

"Edward are you okay?" I asked rubbing his back.

"What" he said " Oh yeah I'm okay"

"Are you sure? You seem a bit…I dunno…. frustrated?"

"Yeah I'm fine" he said smiling.

I caught a glimpse of the time on the clock when I looked at him and realised I should have been home at least twenty minutes ago.

"Oh shit. Edward I'm sorry but I have to go. Charlie will want me home"

"Okay"

I grabbed my handbag and put my coat on and Edward walked me out to my car. I turned around to him.

"Edward this was just a one time thing right?" I asked.

"Yeah sure. If you want it to be" he smirked.

"Yeah I do. I don't think it would work of we continued it"

"Fine but do I get a goodbye kiss?" he stepped closer and wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me to him.

"I'd have to think about that one" I teased smiling up at him.

He lifted me up and placed me on the hood of my car and softly kissed me. I put my hands on his shoulders and deepened the kiss. He sucked on my bottom lip teasing me. I decided two could play at that game. We continued kissing normally and then I nipped his lip. He let out a quiet moan and we parted for air.

"Bye Edward" I opened the car door, got in and rolled down the window.

"Goodbye Bella" he said as I pulled out of the driveway and drove home.

On the way home I noticed I was low on gas and pulled up at the nearest gas station. I filled the car up and walked into the store. I picked up a few doughnuts and put them in a bag.

I walked up to the cashier to pay and noticed Eric Yorkie worked here.

"H-hey Bella" he stuttered.

"Hi Eric" I said cheerfully.

After that he gave me a weird, creepy goofy smile and didn't talk…or couldn't talk. I paid and walked out to my car only to see Tanya Denali pull up. I got in my car quickly not wanting to face her at the minute and drive of home.

As I opened the front door I was greeted with a grumble from Charlie. He was sitting on the couch watching a baseball game. God that man loved his baseball. It never ceased to amaze me how intrigued he was in a little game. I greeted him back and told him I was going upstairs to bed.

As soon as my head hit the pillow after my shower I slept like a log.

A/N: Please review. Love you all.
