Teaser for chapter 4

I turned the corner and saw a sight that made my heart shatter. Bella had her forehead on a locker with tears falling from her eyes. I went over to her putting my arm around her shoulders. She shuddered and pulled away looking at me with such sadness and hurt.

“What’s wrong, Bella? Are you hurt? Did Tanya say or do something?”

I rambled on and on

She continued to look at me, this time with anger written all over her face.

“What is your problem, Edward? Is this how you get your kicks? Do you seduce any girl that catches your eye and then go back to your perfect Baywatch Barbie?”

I shook my head not understanding what she is saying as she continued

“I just saw you with Jessica. You were about to kiss her. Isn’t that what you were going to do?”

I opened my mouth to defend myself but she did not give me the chance.

“It is a good thing that I found out now the way you are before anything went further with us. You are so not worth this heartache,” she sniffed and walked away without giving me the chance to say anything.

Teaser for All Alone chapter 16

There was one sentence that Jasper said which was repeatedly going over in my head but I could not figure out why.

“I know for a fact that she wishes that you could be here with her but you will have your work cut out for you if you want her to forgive and trust her again.”

I wish I knew why that I kept repeating that particular sentence in my head until if finally dawned on me.

“I know for a fact that she wishes that you could be HERE with her but you will have your work cut out for you if you want her to forgive and trust her again.”

“SHIT” I yelled, jumping up off my chair.

HERE, means that she was staying with Jasper. She is only fifteen minutes away from me. I could be there with her while we both watch the interview together,” I thought, but just as quickly, as my excitement came it just as quickly evaporated.

I sat back down in my seat in defeat and thought, how can I earn back her trust back if I go rushing to her before she is ready. She needs to see the interview first and then decided whether she wants to see me.

“From this moment on, everything is going to be on her terms and I’ll just have to be patient if I was ever to have the chance to win her back.

“The ball is in her court and I will be happy to take whatever she gives me,” I thought.

All Alone chapter 15

Previously

Forty minutes later, I was washed, dressed in a pair of denim shorts and a tank top. I was definitely showing now, there is no denying my pregnancy because it so obvious. I put on a pair of flip-flops, went down the stairs to the living room and was assaulted with a three-way hug from none other than Esme and Carlisle.

I pulled away and hugged them both individually.

After ten minutes of hugging, kissing and crying, we walked into the living room.

I noticed a third person sitting on the couch, with his back facing me, as he spoke to Jasper and Alice. He stood up, turned around and smiled at me. My heart jumped to my throat and I forgot how to breathe. Everything went black.

Chapter 15

BPOV

Everything was so peaceful. The sun was shining, birds were chirping as I walked through a meadow full of the most beautiful flowers I had ever seen. Suddenly I heard voices calling for me to come back.

“Bella, Bella!”

I closed my eyes for a few seconds. As I slowly opened them again, I was in Jasper’s living room lying on the couch.

“Bella, are you OK sweetheart?” Carlisle asked. 

Everything suddenly came back to me and I remembered walking into the living room seeing Alice and Jasper sitting down on the couch talking to…….

I jumped up and looked around for the face that I thought that I saw, when he came over and sat down next to me taking me by the hand.

“Hey Bells, I hoped that you would be happy to see me but I did not expect you to faint,” he joked.

Tears came to my eyes and I jumped into the arms of the one person who was always there for me but he was also the one person that I had to leave behind.

“Oh Alec, I have missed you, so much. Everything is going to be alright now that you are here,” I cried burying my face in his chest.

He leaned his cheek against my hair and tightened his hold on me. "I've missed you too." He whispered so only I could hear.

I cried as he continued to hold me for the next twenty minutes. When I felt that I had no tears left, I pulled away from him.

“Alec, not that I am not happy and relieved to see you but what are you doing here? Do mum and dad know that you came to see me?”

He smiled that cocky little smile that could always get him what he wanted.

“Esme and Carlisle came to visit mum and dad. They told them that you were having a hard time and that you missed us. Esme told them that it might lift your spirits if you received a visit from at least one member of your family. Dad told them that they loved you and missed you but they were not ready to see you just yet. I was sitting in the living room with them while they were talking so I begged them to let me come to you. Mum hesitated at first, but dad thought that it would be a good idea, knowing how close we always were. So between Dad, Esme and Carlisle, we convinced her to let me come see you for a few weeks.”

He continued to smile while he was talking and I continued to cry. I had missed him so much and I could not believe that we had two whole weeks together. We continued to hold each other, afraid to leave each other go in case the other disappeared.

“I have missed you Bells, so much,” he whispered into my hair.

“I’ve missed you too Alec,” I cried.

 He started telling me everything that was going on back in Forks. He said that Lauren Mallory and Jessica Stanley were pissed because I was with Edward and they were convinced that given the chance he would fall in love with them. After what seemed like hours, Jasper dragged him away to the game room with Carlisle while Alice and I went into kitchen with Esme to make dinner.

Esme started making her famous Salmon Wellington and I mixed the salad while Esme told us what the plan was while they were here.

“Girls, I am going to have a talk with Carmen and find out what she is up too, but there is one thing that Carlisle and I agree on and that is that we do not think it is in your best interests to continue staying with her. We have decided Carlisle and I will move out here to LA so that we can be with you both. Besides, it will be good to get away from the cold weather of Forks,” she joked.

She paused for breath before she continued.

“Carlisle’s parents have a holiday home here in Malibu and when we told them that we were going to move out here for a while, they signed the house over to us. It is at Broad Beach Road, which is not far from here. Carlisle has already put in for a transfer at work. I will be staying here with you both until it comes through.”

She looked at me and took my hand.

“Carmen may have said or done a lot of things but there is one thing that I agree with her and that is the fact that Elizabeth Masen is the best ob-gyn in the country. I had her checked out and I do not believe that you would be able to find anyone better qualified. It is your decision if you wish to continue with her and I will support you either way,” she said.

I could not describe the happiness that I was feeling at that moment. Esme and Carlisle were moving here to be with Alice and me. They were the only ones that have supported me from the beginning. If Esme says that I will be okay with  Elizabeth Masen been my ob-gyn then I will have to trust her.

“We will talk more about everything later but first we better feed those men before they starve to death” she joked, as she picked up the Salmon Wellington that she had made from scratch and brought it to the table. Alice and I picked up the salad and bread before following behind her closely.

Alice went to call Carlisle, Alec and Jasper to dinner while I sat and spoke to Esme.

“Bella did you hear any more from Edward? I know that he is going to great lengths in a effort to find you. The sky writing in Seattle was pure genius,” she said.

Before I could answer, Jasper and Alec came to the table laughing and joking whileCarlisle and Alice followed closely behind. Esme told them were to sit and dished up the dinner giving, everyone generous servings.

Alec and Jasper continued to talk as if they were old close friends. I did not pay any attention to their conversation until I heard Jasper mentioning Edward’s name to Alec.

“Edward is not a bad guy. He was just dealt a shitty hand of cards. That whore Emily truly screwed him up, royally. Now I am not saying that I am happy with the way he treated Bella and our friendship has suffered because of it but maybe we should at least hear him out. From what I have heard, he really wants to turn things around,” he said.

Alec shook his head in disagreement.

“I cannot agree to that Jazz. He may have a shitty past and he may be now regretting everything, but this is my twin sister that we are talking about. She is the one who is pregnant and is dealing with his shit. He really needs to prove that he has changed before I allow him to go anywhere near my sister,” he said.

Esme, Carlisle, Alice and I sat around the table listening with great interest to their conversation, but the only thing that stood out in my mind was some girl’s name.

Emily.

I keep repeating what Jasper said about her repeatedly in my head.

“Edward is not a bad guy. He was just been dealt a shitty hand of cards. That whore Emily truly screwed him up, royally.”

Who was this bitch and what did she do too Edward? Was I doing the right thing in ignoring him or should I at least meet with him and hear him out?

I stood up and placed my napkin on the table next to my untouched food.

“May I be excused? I have a headache,” I asked, running upstairs to my room before anyone could answer me.

I threw myself on top of my bed and put the pillow over my face trying to stop the thoughts racing through my head. I faintly heard someone come into the room and sit down on the bed next to me. I threw the pillow to one side and looked into Esme’s caring eyes.

I sat up and threw my arms around her as she gave me a motherly hug back.

I buried my face in her shoulder, crying quietly.

“I do not know what to do Esme. I want to hear what he has to say, but on the other hand he hurt me so much that I am scared about what he has to say. Please tell me what to do because I have no idea,” I cried.

She pulled back and looked at me

“Bella, I cannot tell you what to do. The only thing that I will tell you is that the answer to all your questions can be found within your heart. You must have faith in others, but most importantly you must have faith in yourself,” she said.

She stood up to leave the room. When she got to the door, she turned around and gave me one last piece of advice.

“Do not be ashamed of what you feel. We will all be here for you, stand by you and love you, no matter what,” she said as she left the room.

The second the door closed I threw my head back on the pillow and closed my eyes, wondering what the fuck I was going to do.

I put my hand over my stomach and started stroking it with the palm of my hand.

“I promise to you that you will be loved no matter what.

“She says, I have to have faith in others and myself. Yeah right,” I whispered to my stomach, stroking it lovingly as I dozed off.

EPOV

“Eddie be ready in fifteen minutes because I am going to drag your ugly ass out of the house today,” Emmett’s voice roared through the phone. I had to keep the receiver well away from my ear so that I would not go deaf.

It had been three days since I arrived back in LA from Seattle, Three days, since I met the skank who rang me in Seattle and told me to come to Beverly Hills and see Bella, Three days, since I saw my mother in the clinic and broke down thinking about Bella. I could not stop thinking about what she said after my episode in her office.

Flashback

My mother continued to rock me back and forth until my breathing was under control and I calmed down.

She helped me get up off the floor and sat with me on the coach. When she was sure that I was comfortable, she got up to get me a glass of water, which I gratefully drank.

“Edward, you are my baby and I cannot stand seeing you like this. You have got to take better of yourself,” mum whispered.

I looked at her and I could see the worry written all over her face.

“I know mum but no matter what I need to sort things out with Bella. I want to love her and our baby the way they deserve. I need her to know that I am sorry for everything that I have said and done. I will spend the rest of my life proving it to her, even if she never forgives me,” I whimpered.

My mother’s face wrinkled in thought. After five minutes of silence she looked at me at gave a small smile.

“Edward like I said you are my son and I love you but if I am lucky enough for Bella to continue allowing me be her ob-gyn then I would not be able to tell you where she is unless she gave me permission to do so.”

But let me give you a bit of advice. If you truly want to sort things out with Bella and make things right, you will have to do is get outside of your comfort zone. You need to put yourself on the line, make her believe that you honestly are sorry and that you want a second chance with her,” she said.

End Flashback

“Edward are you still there dude,” Emmett shouted. I quickly snapped back to the present and put the receiver back to my ear.

“Hey Emmett, can we take a rain check? There is something that I need to do,” I asked hanging up the phone before he could answer me.

I waited for a few minutes before ringing my manager, Ted Broady.

It rang three times before he answered.

“Well I must be dreaming. It cannot be Edward Masen ringing me,” Ted laughed.

I pinched the bridge of my nose while taking deep breaths wondering if I was doing the right thing where Bella was concerned before I thought back to what my mother said.

“If you truly want to sort things out with Bella and make things right, you will have to get outside of your comfort zone. You need to put yourself on the line, make her believe that you honestly are sorry and that you want a second chance with her

 “Yeah I am doing the right thing,” I thought as I started to talking to Ted.

“Cut the shit Ted, there is something that I need you to do for me.”

“Ok Ed, I am calm now. What do you want me to do for you,” he asked.

I brushed my fingers through my hair and pulled at it hard, thinking that there was no going back now.

“Well, I need you to set up an interview with Jane Murphy and Rebecca Long at the entertainment channel network.”

I took a deep breath before I continued.

“Do you remember the interview I gave about the sixteen year old girl in Forks, Washington? The one who said she was pregnant with my baby?”

After a long pause on the other end of the phone, he answered.

“Yeah I remember but what has that got to do with anything,” he asked.

I took another deep breath to keep myself calm.

“I need to set the story straight and explain everything.”

I could hear heavy breathing on the other end of the phone as if he were hyperventilating.

“Explain what,” he snapped.

“I need to explain that I lied, that I am in fact the father of Isabella Swan’s baby.”

BPOV

I could faintly hear giggling in the background as I slowly opened my eyes. I saw from the corner of my eye that there were two people over by the balcony and one of them was shouting to someone down below.

I laughed when I saw that it was Alec in a tickling war with Alice she was shouting down at Jasper begging him to help her, demanding to know what he was going to do about her situation?

I was always happy that Alec treated Alice like another sister now it seemed like he had befriended Jasper as well. I only wish that we could have included Edward in all of this. It made my heart tighten knowing that he was not with me but could be if I gave him a chance to explain. Both Alice and Alec calmed down from the tickling war before they saw me getting up out of bed. Alec came over to me and put his arms around my shoulders.

“Are you alright sis? What happened to you downstairs,” he asked with concern.

I looked from him to Alice and told him that I overheard what Jasper had told him, the news about some girl called Emily. Alice went over to the balcony and shouted down to Jasper asking him if he would come up to the room. There was silence until we heard a faint knock on the door.

Jasper opened the door and walked in before any of us could answer. He walked over and sat on the sofa opposite my bed next to Alice while Alec sat on the bed next to me.

Alice asked Jasper what he knew about a girl called Emily and what she had to do with Edward. Jasper looked at Alice and I in shock, not expecting either one of us to mention her.

He quickly recovered and looked at me.

“Bella, there is not much that I can tell you frankly it is Edward’s story to tell. I will tell you that Emily was his girlfriend in school and that she screwed him over pretty good. When they broke-up he lost his trust in girls, he believes the worst in them and think that they are all out to trap him,” he said sadly.

I thought for a moment before speaking.

“If that is true and you know the reason behind why Edward reacted the way he did, why are you ignoring your friendship with him?”

He was silent for a few minutes and looked at Alice who gave his hand gentle squeeze to show her support.

“The reason why I am not talking to him Bella is because no matter what he has suffered in his past, you did not deserve the way he has been treating you. He could explain everything to you, instead he choose to be an asshole and I am not happy with that. You deserve better than that shit, Bella.”

I shook my head when he finished.

“Jazz, I am incredibly grateful to you for what you have done but Edward is probably out there confused about everything and he has nobody to talk to about it. I have Esme, Carlisle, Alice and Alec. So I think that once we all move into the Malibu home, you should get in touch with Edward, have him come stay with you and for you to be his best friend again,” I whimpered, my eyes shining with tears.

Jasper jumped up off the sofa that he was sitting on with Alice and pulled me into a tight hug.

“Bella how can you be so selfless and look the other way, especially with all he has put you through. If it was anyone else, they would be wishing him death,” he said.

I continued to hug him back.

“Everybody needs someone no matter what he has done to me he deserves to have his friends support. I cannot help but think about who is the one that is truly all alone, Edward or I?  I even had his mother keep the fact that she saw me a secret from him and that was not right,” I sniffed.

He pulled back and looked at me in awe.

“Ok Bella, I will get in touch with him and make sure that he is alright,” he said, before he pulled me close  for another hug.

                         ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~AA~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Three days have gone by since I told Jasper to talk to Edward but he still has to call him. He insists on waiting to ring him, stating that he will do so when we have moved into Esme and Carlisle’s Malibu home. I knew that he was worried about Edward turning up and possibly seeing me here if he were to ring him before we left.

I have continued to think about whether I should contact him or not. If what Jasper said was true about Edward’s ex-girlfriend then I should at least hear him out and let him explain. Not only for myself but also for the sake of my unborn baby.

I was feeling nauseous all morning so I decided to stay behind in Jasper’s home while everybody else went to view Esme and Carlisle’s Malibu home. I was lying down on the couch when I heard the house phone ringing. I debated with myself whether I should answer it or not. I decided against it because I was afraid that if I moved I would vomit, so I left the answering machine pick it up.

When the message on the machine finished, a voice that I sincerely missed spoke.

“Hi Jazz, it’s Edward. It seems so long since we spoke and I know that you will not be happy about hearing from me now. The reason that I am phoning now is I was hoping you would be able to get in touch with Bella.”

My heart skipped a beat when I heard him saying my name. I held my breath as he continued.

“If you can get in touch with her, will you please ask her to watch the entertainment channel at 8pm tonight? It is very important to me that she watches a specific interview on that channel, at exactly that time. Thanks man.”

The machine went silent, proving that he had hung up. I started breathing again and did not realise that I was crying until I saw a tear falling on the cushion where my head lay.

His voice sounded so beautiful but was filled with sadness. I wanted nothing more than to pick up the phone, check the caller id and ring him back, but knew that I was not ready to do that yet. I wondered what was so important about that particularly interview, why he was so insistent that I watch it.

I continued to listen to his voice on the answering machine and cry until I was sure that they were no tears left to shed. Before I knew it, the front door opened and in walked Alec, Jasper and Alice; all talking excitedly about the house that they saw with Esme and Carlisle, who were walking closely behind them with big smiles on their faces. The chatter stopped shortly after they saw me sitting on the sofa, my arms wrapped around a cushion and tears falling from my eyes.

Alice came and sat next to me, clutching my right hand in hers while Alec sat on the other side of me with his arms wrapped around my shoulders.

He looked at me with so much love and concern in his eyes.

“What happened Bells?”

I cried even harder trying to explain.

“Edward…answering machine…interview…voice…hurt…” I sobbed.

Jasper went straight to the answering machine and played back the message. A new batch of tears came to my eyes when I heard his voice again. Esme discreetly went into the kitchen and started to make lunch while we sat and discussed what was going on.

Jasper looked deep in thought before he started speaking.

“Bella, how would you feel about me ringing Edward back and finding out what he is doing and what the interview is about,” he asked.

I did not trust myself to speak, so Alice spoke instead.

“Ok Jazzy, but please do not tell him that we are here. You can tell him that you see us and know where we are, but not that we are staying here,” she said.

Jasper nodded and picked up the phone so that he could go into another room while we all sat and waited in anticipation.

JPOV

I picked up my house phone and walked into my den, which is my sanctuary, the only room in my house that I can unwind and call my own.

I cannot help but think back to how much my life changed when I met Alice four months ago. She quickly captured my heart and became my soul mate, Bella is like a sister to her and quickly became like a sister to me. When Bella found out that, she was pregnant with Edward’s baby and after the way Edward started treating her, I became very protective towards her in a brotherly kind of way.

Edward is my best friend and I love him but he needs to take that stick out of his ass and grow up.

When Bella asked me to get in touch with Edward so that he would have a friend to talk to, I was in awe by her selflessness and could not be any prouder of her.

I sat in my chair looking at the phone wondering what I was going to say to him for a few minutes before I decide to dial his number.

I quickly dialled his cell number and waited for him to answer.

“Hello, Jazz,” he asked breathlessly

I paused before answering.

“How did you know that it was me?”

“Caller ID,” he laughed

“Well Ed, I got your message on the answering machine. What is your plan? What are you up to,” I asked not bothering to beat around the bush.

“Jazz, I need to make things right. I miss her and need her in my life. It took me this long to realize what she and the baby mean everything to me. I have gone and done everything the wrong way and need her to know that I am willing to do whatever it takes for her to trust me,” he answered.

“So what is the interview about and what are you planning on talking about?”

There was a long pause before he answered me.

“I am admitting that I am the baby’s father and that I am in love with Bella. I am also explaining the reason why I denied it in the first place without going into full details. I think it is best for me to tell Bella about that in private. Just her and me,” he said his voice laced with sadness.

I could hear from the sound of his voice that he meant everything that he was saying, so the least I could do is assure him that Bella will see the interview tonight but I cannot tell him that she is staying with me. It is up to Bella to tell him that bit of information.

“Ok Eddie, I promise you that Bella will be watching that interview tonight. I do know where she is but I cannot tell you. If she wants to talk to you after she watches the interview then I will give her your cell number and then the both of you can arrange to meet up.”

“Thanks Jazz, you have no idea how much this means to me. Please will you answer one thing for me? How is she doing? Is there any problems? Is she and the baby ok?”

I smiled into the phone thinking this is the Edward that I know, my best friend.

“She is doing well. She is a lot stronger than she looks and I know for a fact that she wishes that you could be here with her but you will have your work cut out for you if you want her to forgive and trust her again.”

“Thanks again Jazz, I miss you mate but make sure that Bella and our baby are ok. That is all that I care about,” he said

I did not miss what he said when he called it our baby. It makes me happy that he is willing to take responsibility for their child. My best friend is truly coming back.

“I will Eddie, look after yourself and I give you a ring tomorrow,” I smiled into the phone.

“Bye Jazz,” he answered, and hung up.

I continued to sit in my chair so that I could get my thoughts together before I got up and went into the living room to tell everybody how proud I am of my best friend. 

Teaser for chapter 15 of all alone

I keep repeating what Jasper just said about her repeatedly in my head.

“Edward is not a bad guy. He was just been dealt a shit load of cards. That whore Emily truly screwed him up, royally.”

Who is this bitch and what did she do too Edward? Am I doing the right thing in ignoring him or should I at least meet with him and hear him out?

I stood up and placed my napkin on the table next to my untouched food.

“May I be excused? I have a headache,” I asked but ran upstairs to my Bedroom before anybody could answer me.

I threw myself on top of my bed and put the pillow over my face trying to stop the thoughts going through my head. I could faintly hear someone come into the room and sit down on the bed next to me. I threw the pillow to one side and looked into Esme’s caring eyes.

I sat up and threw my hands around her while she gave me a motherly hug back.

I buried my face into her should crying quietly.

“I do not know what to do Esme. I want to hear him out but on the other hand, he has hurt me so much that I am scared about what he has to say. Please tell me what to do because I have no idea,” I cried.

She pulled back and looked at me

“Bella, I cannot tell you what to do. The only thing that I will tell you is that the answer to what you seek you will find it within your heart. You must have faith in others but most importantly, you must have faith in yourself,” she said.

She stood up to leave the room. When she got to the door, she turned around and gave me one last piece of advice.

Do not be ashamed of what you feel. We will all be here for you, stand by you and love you, no matter what,” she said and left the room. 

chapter 3

BPOV

I was on cloud nine as I skipped down the corridor, my heart bursting with joy. All I wanted to do at that moment was to start screaming from the rooftops

“I AM EDWARD CULLEN’S BIOLOGY PARTNER AND I COULD NOT BE HAPPIER ABOUT IT”.

I walked into gym class, but my good mood quickly evaporated the second I saw Tanya standing there with two more Baywatch bimbos glaring at me. Luckily, Alice came over to me and started talking before I could burst into tears.  She was talking about something, but I did not even hear a word that she was saying. Coach Knapp called us to order and split us into teams. Since I was the new girl, he suggested that I sit this one out and simply observe, which I was incredibly grateful to do.

Finally, after sitting there watching everyone playing netball for the past forty-five minutes, Coach Knapp dismissed us and everyone ran for the locker room to shower and dress. When I got up to wait for Alice outside the gym doors I was stopped by none other than the head Baywatch Barbie herself.

She stood there staring down at me with a look of anger, hatred and loathing.

“Hello newbie, we meet again,” she sneered.

I did not want to finish my first day in a new school with a row so I decided to be polite to the queen bitch.

“It’s Bella,” I said politely.

She looked me up and down, then sneered

“Like it matters,” she spat.

She stepped closer to me, until she was right in my face.

“I have only one fucking thing to say to you, Newbie. Stay away from my Edward. He is mine and he does not want trash like you. He would not want to be with someone like you when he has someone like me to cuddle up to,” she hissed, her voice laced with venom.

She had begun to turn and walk away to join her two followers when I shouted after her, not knowing where the courage was coming from.

“That would be hard to do knowing that we are in fact biology partners.”

She turned around, her eyes flashing with anger.

“Do not test me slut. If you know what is good for you, you will find a way to get a new biology partner. My Eddie would not want to spend his free time studying with the likes of you.”

She walked back over to me and continued,

“You are nothing and you will always be nothing. My Eddie would never look at you twice,” she snickered.

“If that is true then why do you feel so threatened by me,” I smirked.

She opened her mouth, surprised that I had actually spoken back, but she quickly recovered.

“Like I said, do not test me newbie. You are just a small duck in a large pond. Nobody will notice you, I suggest that you do what I say, find a new biology partner and leave my Eddie alone. You will regret it if you do not. And do not think that getting all cosy with his twin sister will help you either. I can eat you up and then spit you out,” she spat before leaving the gym with her two sidekicks.

I fell down on my knees, put my face into my hands and sobbed.

I barely felt as a pair of strong arms wrapped around me, holding me close. I continued to cry, not caring what was going on around me.

I did not even know how much time went by I could just barely hear voices talking around me.

“Calm done love, everything will be alright,” Edward cooed into my ear. I looked up at him with my eyes watery, tears falling down my cheeks. He gave me a heart-breaking smile before looking over at his sister.

“What happened? Why is she like this?” he asked Alice.

Alice looked heartbroken as she shrugged her shoulders.

“I do not know Edward. I was in the locker room changing after gym and she was going to wait for me outside. When I came in through the gym doors looking for her Tanya was just leaving and Bella was like this,” she sniffed.

Edward growled and said something like I am going to cut the bitch when I get my hands on her.

I suddenly felt myself being picked up and carried away. I looked up into the emerald eyes that I had fallen in love with and smiled at the beauty of him.

He looked down at me and gave me his crooked grin.

“What, may I ask, has you smiling so beautifully,” he grinned.

Damn. Queue the wet panties. This guy is going to be the death of me.

“Let me down, I can walk. I do have legs you know,” I smiled up at him.

He walked out the front doors of the school and stopped in front of a silver Volvo s60.

“And what sexy legs they are Miss Swan, but I am not letting you go until we are at my house,” he laughed as he gave me that sexy grin again.

He opened the passenger door and helped me into the car while Alice got in the back seat. Edward was about to get in when I thought about Jasper. I looked around the parking lot and found it practically deserted. God only knows how long I was sitting on the gym floor, crying my eyes out. Remembering what happened suddenly brought a fresh batch of tears to my eyes.

Edward put his arms around my shoulder and tried to shush me. When I had calmed down again, he started the engine and pulled out of the parking lot.

I looked back at Alice

“Alice, Jasper will be looking for me. Neither one of us know anyone here. He will be wondering where I am,” I sighed.

“Do not worry about Jasper. As a matter of fact he got a ride home with Emmett and Rosalie and asked if I could wait for you and drop you off at home,” she smirked like the evil little pixie that she is.

I looked over at Edward he looked so pissed and angry that he frightened me. I felt like the tears were making a comeback and I tried very hard to keep them in.

Finally, he pulled up outside a beautiful three-story mansion. It looked like somewhere the prince would bring Cinderella home to. I looked at both Edward and Alice in awe.

“You both live here,” I asked, with my mouth wide open.  

Edward looked at me with his crooked grin that makes me go weak at the knees and nodded his head. Alice was out of the car and in the house so quickly that she never even heard me.

He took my books from me and walked me in to his home. I stopped the very second I walked in the door, completely stunned. The house was beautiful, it was so bright and open. I looked to the left where there was a curved, floating glass and wood staircase and elevator. I looked up at the ceiling, the sunlight was shining through the skylights. I was completely in awe of this home and wondered what I would have to do in order to have Alice or Edward invite me here more often.

“Ahem”

I looked over at Edward to find him watching me in amusement.

“Do you want to go into the living room and talk,” he asked nervously. I nodded yes and he showed me the way. The room could easily fit our new living room, kitchen and my bedroom in it.

I looked around, suddenly afraid to enter the room and sit on the white leather sofa. Alice was already sitting on the love seat, waiting for me, while Edward took me by the hand and held it in his.

“Hey, are you alright love,” he smirked.

I slowly nodded as we made our way over to the couch. I sat down with Edward taking the seat next to me. He put his fingers under my chin and tilted my head up to meet his eyes.

“Bella, what happened in the gym? We know that it has something to do with Tanya, but we do not know what she did. Will you please tell us,” he pleaded.

I looked from him to Alice with tears in my eyes. Alice sat there looking nearly as worried about me as Edward was, so I told them everything that had happened with Tanya in the gym.  I looked at Edward and noticed that his eyes shifted from emerald to black with fury.

He stood up, grabbed his cell from the coffee table and ran out of the living room. When I looked over at Alice, I could not keep the tears in anymore and I broke out in full-blown sobs. Alice was next to me in a flash, her arms wrapped around me as she, tried to calm me down.

All of a sudden we heard Edward shouting and yelling in the hallway.

“I do not give two shits Tanya. That kind of shit does not sit well with me. You had no right saying that I could or could not be friends with Bella.”

He paused while he listened to her on the other end of the phone.

“You really want to talk about sluts Tanya? Take a good long look at yourself in the mirror and remember whom you are friends with. Those two bitches that you call friends are the biggest whores in Mason High.”

I opened the door a crack and saw him standing there with his cell in one hand, pulling at his hair with the other as his beautiful green eyes flashed with anger.

“Tanya, I am going to say this once and only once. Stay away from my friend. If I find you or your two slutty sidekicks going near her, we are going to have more problems than we already do,” he snapped before hanging up his cell.

He put both hands on the wall in front of him as he tried to calm down, breathing deeply in and out. I opened the door fully, walked out and put my right hand on his back, drawing large circles with my index finger. He turned so that he could look at me, his eyes changing from anger to lust. I tried to control my breathing but it was hard to do.

He put his left hand on my face and started brushing my cheek with his thumb, his eyes never leaving mine.

Someone clearing his or her throat knocked us both out of our daze.

We dragged our eyes away from each other and looked over at an amused Alice.

“I am going over to visit with Jasper, we would like to get to know each other better. So I was wondering Bella, would you like a ride home,” she asked while giggling.

Edward looked at Alice with frustration written all over his face.  

“Do not bother your pixie looking self. Bella and I are going to work on our Biology project so I will give her a ride home later,” he smirked.

My heart skipped a beat at the thought of being alone with Edward for an hour or two.

Alice gave a little chuckle and walked out the door. Edward looked at me with longing.

“Do you want something to drink or eat before we go up to my room to study?”

“Surprise me,” I smiled. His crooked grin lite up his face and his eyes sparkled. He told me where to go and that he would follow me up.  I went up to the third floor and walked into the second room on the left.

To say that I was surprised at the way his room was is an understatement. I was expecting a bedroom filled with posters of football teams and cheerleaders on the wall, maybe even playboy magazines on the bed. Instead it was so bright and clean. just like the rest of the house. There were all kinds of music on the shelves and a thirty-two inch flat wide screen, wired with cinema sound at the end of his king size bed.

Suddenly I felt like I was been watched so I turned around and there was Edward, watching me, his arms filled with cans of soda and chocolate bars.

“My room not what you expected Miss Swan?” he smirked.

I grinned at him as I looked through his CD collection. I pulled out one by Claude Debussy. I looked at him and raised my eyebrows, silently asking him if he really listened to this kind of music. He took the CD out of my hands and loaded it into the CD player. The soft music of Clair De Lune filled the room and he looked into my eyes as he took my hands in his.

“Dance with me,” he whispered.

I nodded no, telling him that I could not dance, but he would not take no for an answer as he took me into his arms, lifted me up and gently put me down on top of his feet. He moved around with such ease while holding me close to him. My heart almost stopped beating when I noticed him looking from my eyes to my lips as I copied his motions. We slowly tilted our heads towards each other, our eyes never leaving the other’s lips. My heart was almost beating out of my chest at the thought of receiving my first kiss from this green-eyed god.

Edward’s breathing became irregular when his lips were just an inch away from mine.

“You are so beautiful Bella,” he whispered as his soft lips gently touched mine. Words could not describe the feeling but at that moment everything felt right, I felt complete.

I kissed him back as if my life depended on it. I opened my mouth to give him access and he deepened the kiss. His hands slowly descended to my waist and he pulled me marginally closer to him. Suddenly his lips started moving faster and our tongues danced together. It was the most erotic moment of my life. I knew then and there that even though I had only known him for one day, I had fallen in love with him I wanted him to be mine but I knew that he could not. He stopped kissing my lips and slowly moved to my neck, his lips never left my skin. We continued making out with the beautiful music of Claude Debussy playing. He slowly pulled away and looked into my eyes. All I could see was pure, unadulterated lust as he breathed heavily.

“Bella, you are so beautiful. I know that we only met today but there is something there between us. I do not know what it is but what I do know is that I want and need to be with you. Please tell me that you feel the same way,” he whimpered nervously.

I looked up at him with tears falling from my eyes as I thought of Tanya. Here I was, in the arms of my dream guy, he was telling me that he wanted me but I knew that he belonged to someone else.

He lifted his hand to my cheek and gently whipped my tears away. He continued to hold me in his arms as he walked backwards towards his bed. I felt like I was in a dream when I laid down on his bed and held my arms out, silently asking him to join me.

“If this is all that we have then we need to make the most of it,” I said quietly. He gave me his sexy crooked smile as he laid down next to me, pulled me into his arms and smashed his lips against mine. I opened my mouth to invite his tongue in, which he willingly accepted. I moaned, softly, but it was enough to convince him to keep going. He continued to kiss me as our tongues wrestled with each other. His hand went to the buttons of my blouse and opened them one by one, starting from the top. His mouth left my lips and made its way down my collarbone. He continued giving me butterfly kisses there as he opened the last of my buttons and took my blouse off. He opened my white lace bra with one hand and took it off ,revealing my thirty-four C breasts to his gaze. His mouth went to my right nipple while he palmed my left breast. He sucked and nibbled on it before switching to my left nipple while palming my right breast.

“Oh Edward,” I whimpered as he continued to assault my breasts.

“Bella…so beautiful…so sweet…I cannot get enough,” he groaned.

He rubbed his rock hard cock into my soaking wet sex and suddenly I was scared. I pulled away and got up off the bed. How did I go from getting my first kiss from Edward too heavily making out with him? True, he was the man of my dreams, but he also had a girlfriend. His girlfriend who happens to be a bitch and can make life difficult for me.

“Bella? Are you alright babe?” he asked with a frown on his gorgeous face.

Tears started to make a comeback as he continued to look at me.

“I’m sorry Edward. This is all my fault. This shouldn’t have happened,” I whimpered. I put on my bra and just as I was about to put my blouse on he rested his hand on top of mine, to stopping my movements.

“Don’t be sorry Bella, I’m not. I wanted this to happen. I couldn’t think of anything else but kissing you since we bumped into each other this morning,” he said, his voice all soft and velvety.

I looked down at his hand on top of mine and felt electric sparks going through my entire being. I then looked into his eyes, he looked so sad and hurt. I could feel a fresh flood of tears falling from my eyes as I continued to look at him.

“I am sorry Edward but this is not fair to anyone. You are with Tanya and I am not the kind of girl who is your bit on the side. Besides, we were going too fast. You just gave me my first kiss, than you had my bra and blouse off before suddenly you were kissing and touching my breasts. If we continued this I probably would have had your cock in my mouth by dinner time,” I joked, trying to make light of the situation. 

The look on his face went from sad and hurt, to confusion, shifting quickly to happy, and finally too cocky all in the matter of seconds.

“So, I am your first Kiss huh,” he smirked.

He got up off the bed, stood in front of me and brushed his index finger down my right cheek.

“Do you know how sexy it is that I am the first guy to kiss you, the first guy to be with you like that? I am so hard right now and I want you even more than I did earlier, if that is even possible,” he said seductively.

He leaned in, putting his arms around my waist.

“I also want to be your second kiss, your third, fourth and every single one after that,” he whispered before he softly pressed his lips to mine. I tried to pull away but he would not let go. I gave up, groaned at the contact, dropped my blouse on the floor and fisted my hands in his hair, pulling hard.

“Yeah, that’s right baby. Pull it harder,” he growled against my lips.

His hands went down to my ass and pulled me closer to him, so close that I could feel his rock hard cock against my leggings covered soaking wet sex. My hand went to the fly of his jeans. I was about to open the zipper and free his cock when there was a knock of his bedroom door. He growled as he involuntary left me go. I quickly threw my blouse on.

He looked me in the eyes with unquenchable lust in his eyes before he shouted

“Yeah come in.”

The door opened and in walked Jasper with Alice. My eyes went wide in surprise at seeing my twin brother standing there with my new friend. Alice looked from me to Edward with a big wide grin on her face.

“Hey, what have you two been up too,” she asked, her smile getting wider.

Edward did not get the chance to say anything before Jasper came over to me and put his arms around me.

“Alice told me what happened. Are you alright sis,” he asked with a concerned tone.

I nodded as I smiled weakly at him. My head is still foggy due to what Edward and I had just been doing moments ago. I noticed that Alice was simply standing there holding Jasper’s hand while grinning like a fool. She did not get the chance to explain what she was grinning about because her mother shouted for her and Edward to bring their friends down for dinner.

I looked at Edward, he was looking at me with his cocky grin before he took my hand and walked me down to the dining room to meet his parents.

I walked into the dining room to find a stunningly beautiful woman with long caramel hair and Edward’s emerald eyes bringing food to the table.  Edward pushed me in front of him and put his arms around my waist.

“Mother, this is Isabella Swan. She just moved to LA from London and started at Mason High today with her twin brother. Bella, this is my mother Esme Cullen,” he introduced. I put my hand out to shake hers but she ignored it, threw her arms around me and gave me a motherly hug instead.

“It is wonderful to meet you Isabella. Such a lovely and beautiful girl as well,” she cooed.

“Thank you Mrs Cullen and please call me Bella. May I help you?” I smiled.

She shook her head.

“No thank you my dear. Everything is ready and please, call me Esme. Mrs Cullen makes me feel so old,” she said as she walked back into the kitchen.

Five minutes later Alice and Jasper came down the stairs. Alice’s clothes looked dishevelled, her lips all swollen from been truly kissed and Jasper had a sheepish look on his face. I shook my head to get rid of the images that came to mind. Just then, Esme walked in with the salad and garlic bread and to place them on the table. Alice quickly introduced her mother to Jasper.  Just as she did with me she ignored his hand and threw her arms around him to give him a hug instead, telling him to call her Esme. She told us all to sit down while she brought in the lasagne. She dished out a generous amount to all of us before sitting down herself. Before she could say a word, the front door slammed and in walked a beauiful man with blonde hair and blue eyes. He was definately a DILF.

He walked over to Esme and gave her a sweet kiss on the cheek before sitting down at the head of the table. He looked around and smiled.

“So, I see a few new faces at the table that I have never seen before. Is anybody going to introduce me?”

Edward looked at me while Alice looked at Jasper. After what seemed like five minutes of silence, Esme finally spoke.

“Carlisle, these are Edward and Alice’s new friends, Jasper and Bella Swan. They only just moved to LA and started today at Mason High,” she said as she put a large piece of lasagne in front of him.

Carlisle looked from me to Jasper and continued to smile.

“Did you say your last name is Swan?”

Jasper and I nodded before he continued.

“Our new lawyer whom started just last week is Charlie Swan. He just moved here from England he is a good man and excellent lawyer. He should make his way up to been a partner in no time. I take it that Charlie is your father?”

I smiled to myself, remembering that Alice and Edward’s last name is the same as the law firm that my father recently started working for.

“Yeah he is. I remembered earlier when I spoke to Alice that she had the same last name as the law firm that daddy started working for. I thought that it was just a coincidence,” I smiled.

I then remembered something that left a very sour taste in my mouth.

“The name of your law firm is called Cullen & Denali. Would that be correct?”

Carlisle nodded yes while taking a mouthful of lasagne. I looked at Edward with fear bubbling in my stomach.

“Is Tanya’s last name Denali,” I asked him hoping that I was wrong.

He whimpered yes, looking nervous.

Tears came to my eyes as I continued to look at him.

“Is she the daughter of your dad’s partner and my dad’s boss?”

He looked at me and went to stroke my cheek but thought better before speaking.

“Bella, I didn’t know but it doesn’t make a difference,” he whispered, knowing what I was thinking.

Tears started falling down my face thinking that this girl could make my life hell if she knew what happened between Edward and I and the fact that her father was my father’s boss would not help matters.

I got up off the chair and looked at Jasper silently asking him if we could leave. I know that we do not have our California driving licences yet, so he asked Alice if he could drive us home. She nodded while I hugged Esme and thanked her for dinner. She smiled at me and told me that I was welcome here any time. I thanked Carlisle before walking out the door with Jasper and getting into her car.

I could faintly hear a frantic Edward calling after me as we drove away.

 My tears turned into full-blown sobs, knowing that I had just given my whole heart to a boy I had known only one day and that even if I wanted to I would never get it back.

“Calm done love, everything will be alright,” Edward cooed into my ear. I looked up at him with my eyes watery and tears falling down my cheeks. He gave me a heart-breaking smile before looking over at his sister.

“What happened? Why is she like this?” he asked Alice.

Alice looked heartbroken as she shrugs her shoulders.

“I do not know Edward. I was in the locker room changing after gym and she was supposed to wait for me outside. When I came in through the gym doors to try and find her Tanya was just leaving and Bella was like this,” she sniffed.

Edward growled and said something like I am going to cut the bitch when I get my hands on her.

I suddenly felt myself been picked up and carried away. I looked up into the emerald eyes that I have fallen in love  with and smiled.

He looked down at me and gave me his crooked grin.

“What may I ask have you smiling  about so beautifully,” he grinned.

Damn. Que the wet panties. This guy is going to be the death of me.

“Let me down. I can walk. I do have legs, you know,” I smiled up at him.

He walked out the front doors of the school and stopped in front of a silver Volvo s60.

“And what sexy legs they are Miss Swan but I am not leaving you go until we are at my house,” he laughed as he gave me that sexy ass grin again.
