Chapter 1

Best friends

Bella's POV

I was sitting in my room in the same house with the same baby blue walls my mom painted all those years ago. My mom died when I was only 3 and my dad is still around. I live in the same small town in Forks population 3,120 people. I have some friends Alice, Angela and her boyfriend Ben. Of course I have my best friend...Edward Cullen, Alice's brother. We have known each other since I was 9 years old. I tell him everything.

I am sitting here deciding what to write for a song I am working on. I play the guitar and I couldn't concentrate if only my mind wasn't somewhere else. I have always have had a crush on Edward but to chicken to tell him that I like him. It's to late know he has a girlfriend named Lauren. He absolutely hated her. If he broke up with her she was going to tell them why. As I was coming up with words to write for a song my phone went off. I liked who it was from Edward.

Edward: Hey whatcha doing?

Bella: Nothing trying to write a song...

Edward: Mind if I come over and help?

Bella: Sure no problem

Edward: See you in a few.

As I finally decide on what to write there's a knock on my bedroom window. Of course Edward was there. I opened it.

"Hey Bella"

"Hi Edward" I gave him a hug. He accepted

"Do I get to hear your song so far?"

"Um...Sure"

I started strumming the first of my song and started the lyrics

Seems somebody put out the moon

Now the roads a minefield

I can't follow the way you move

I can't see past the shadows

You make the darkness disappear

I feel found when you standing near

I know where I am when you are here

My way becomes so clear

When your gone

Will I lose control

You're the only road I know

You show me were to go

Who will drive my soul

Seems somebody burned out the signs

I can't expect the hard curves

There"s no borders, there are no lines

How can I know were to turn

You make the street lights reappear

"That's all I have so far." Little does he know that all my songs are about him.

"I like it a lot."

"Thanks."

"Is there something wrong?"

"No nothing."

"Bella you can tell me I wont tell anyone."

"Ok...you remember Jacob Black right?"

"Ya aren't you two dating?"

"No not anymore I caught him cheating on me-" my voice broke and I could feel the my eyes watering up. Before I knew it Edward pulled me into a tight hug.

"Its ok Bella he was no good for you anyways"

"Ya I guess your right...How are things with Lauren?"

"Same old same old"

"Do you want to go for a walk at the park?"

"Ya sure."

Edward got his car out and we drove to the park. He took my hand and walked over to the swings. How I miss the days when Edward would push me when we were little. Now we just sit

on them and talk. I went to get up and I fell and fractured my ankle. I automatically dropped to the ground and whimpered in pain. Edward came to my side and helped me up.

"Can I take a look at your ankle?"

"Yes please.." I said crying.

"You have fractured it" he said hugging me good thing his father is a doctor even though Carlisle isn't his real father Edward says , he loves him the same as if he were. Edward's parents died when he was young. I am the only one who knows. Not even Lauren knows. I felt special. I looked up and got lost in his beautiful green eyes.

"I should take you home. Can you walk? Or should I carry you."

"I can't walk"

"Ok come on then."

He picked me up and drove me home. He climbed up my window to not disturb Charlie. He picked up my guitar and handed it to me.

"Can I hear another?"

"Sure....I wrote this for you since you're my best friend."

You always know what to say

you know what I am like on a specific day

Your always there with your arms ready

When we were little I called you Eddie

You always catch me if I fall

You are first if I need someone to call

You make me laugh and make my fears go away

There is nothing I can say

Nothing I can do

To make you go away

You are a true friend.....

As soon as I was done my song Edward pulled my into a hug and I hugged him back. It felt so good being in his arms why oh why wasn't he mine? I started to cry again and he whipped away my tears.

"GodBella that was beautiful thank you."

"Your welcome you truly are my best friend"

"I gotta go I'll see you at schoolBye!"
