Chapter3: Friends First

Bella POV

Today was… weird. Edward was the same old ignorant person I knew before but after the lunch thing, he changed. He wanted to open up to me I knew it but, he still didn’t give me all his trust and I don’t expect to get it. I just don’t want him to go back to that person who was rude to me and only me. I don’t want him to get mad at me again.

I liked how he helped me earlier. How he looked at me in the eyes, how he said my name. Everytime I think about what just happened, it just seemed like it was just a dream that I woke up from.

I was walking to my car when I saw Jessica standing there infront of it arms crossed and glaring at me. She was glaring at me!! What happened?? I walked faster to her… “Jess, what happened??” I asked.

“What do you mean what happened??” she almost screamed at me.

“I don’t know what your talking about.” I was so confused. This just proves that my life will never be peaceful.

“You don’t know?? You were flirting with the guy that I like Bella!!” she looked like she was about to cry. She was really upset.

“Who??” I asked. “I don’t know who or what you are saying!!”

“Edward!!” she screamed. “You were flirting with him in Biology!! I saw you!!”

Flirting?! Is that what she saw?! I was just talking to the guy and he started the conversation!! I didn’t even know she was crushing on Edward. She doesn’t tell me anything anymore. “Jess.” I tried to sound calm.

“Don’t ‘Jess’ me. You were flirting and you know it!! You didn’t even stop to think about how I would feel. We are in the same class and you are his lab partner. I let that go because it wasn’t your decision!! But now…”

“YOU THINK I FLIRTED WITH HIM AND DIDN’T EVEN THINK OF YOU?!” I screamed at her. She was really pissing me off.

“Isn’t that what YOU DID?!” She screamed back at me.

“You cant be more INSECURE!! And if I was flirting, how should I know that you liked him?! You don’t tell me anything anymore!!!”
