Until It Happens - An Edward and Bella story
What if Bella and Edward were best friends and the opposite poles? What if the line between friendship and love started to erase? All Human!

Chapter 1
A normal day in Forks. The sun was in the sky even though the clouds were surrounding the blue, well I guess as it was summer; the sun had to be there no matter what.
Charlie, my father, had already gone to the Police Station, and I was alone. In peace. Eating my breakfast and enjoying the quiet. I finished quickly and went to the bathroom to brush my teeth and peep myself one more time in the mirror. I was still too white for July, but I guess being me – it was no surprise.
The sound of a horn made me jump. But the rhythm was just too familiar. God, did he always need to be so punctual?
I grabbed my bag and was already outside the house in a second.
“Hey Bell, why are you running?” my best friend laughed. “Late again, huh?”
“Ha ha,” I mocked as I sat in the passenger’s seat of his Volvo. “You know, Edward, some of us actually have something to do rather than speeding all night till sunrise in a Volvo.”
He arched one eyebrow. “Yeah, like reading for example? What, are you reading Wuthering Heights again?” his deep voice came husky, maybe because he’d been awake all night racing as he some times did in summer.
“Actually, is Romeo and Juliet,” I mumbled a bit ashamed. Yes, I was geek. I loved reading, so what? Sue me!
I sometimes couldn’t believe how two totally opposite people could go so well one with the other. Edward and I had been best friends since I first put a foot on this town, when my mother Renee died and I came to live with my dad when I was seven. We had been inseparable for eleven years now. But we were truly different.
He was the popular guy, the best one of the swimming team. And overall, he was charismatic and… well - I had to admit, really handsome. And me, I was the total opposite. Not social at all, more of the indoors sports –with that I mean; reading and watching a movie from time to time, and I was completely average in beauty. I’d nothing that shocked people in my face, unlike Edward. His emerald green eyes killed almost every girl on this town. I said almost, because I couldn’t count me. He was my friend, almost like my brother.
“Sure,” he amused and then his eyes turned mischievous. “Ready for a swimming party?” he gave me his Colgate smile.
I sighed, always the same with him… “You know I don’t swim, Edward.”
“We’ll see that,” he chuckled as he pressed the gas pedal to the max to go to the lake to spend a sunny day together – as we loved to do in summer.
Chapter 2
“Come on, Bell! Look at the water, doesn’t it look tasty?” Edward pushed standing one foot from the top of the lake and waving me to go to his spot.
“I DON’T SWIM!” I shouted back. Besides, I felt self conscious about being only in bikini around him. He was just Edward and all, I know… but well, we had grown up now, and it wasn’t like if we were seven anymore. And deep inside I knew, that his body was just too perfect and mine was just too average.
I sat on a rock and took the sun lotion out of my bag, when two wet hands touched my back unexpectedly.
“Ouch! You are cold!” I yelled to an all-wet Edward behind me. His childish face made me smile.
“Bell, it’s summer here, on the earth, remember?” He amused as he sat by my side, putting his head back to see the sun.
“Well, my summer is a bit different than yours, all right? I actually like to be in touch with culture instead of always with water and parties and cars and girls!” I stuck my tongue at him.
“There is only a girl I like to be with,” he smiled childishly one more time.
I made a face. “Jessica is just—” he cut me off, putting his index on my lips.
“I was referring to you, silly girl.”
“Oh,” I bragged, content. “Well, she’s still your girlfriend.”
He rolled his eyes. “Don’t tell me you don’t die to go out with Jasper Hale. I’ve seen you watching him during gym class, you almost drool over him.”
I dropped my eyes to the floor, but his stare was so intense that even though I wasn’t look at him I turned crimson red. I couldn’t believe he noticed about Jasper, I didn’t even notice it myself so clearly! God, how could he know me so much?!
“I don’t know what you are saying, Jasper is a jerk,” I said. I didn’t know if he could understand me, I was seriously mumbling.
“Only because he is in the football team?” he arched his eyebrow one more time. And I could hear the skeptical tone in his words; he was in a team as well.
I sighed again. “Not because of that, just because he’s been with almost every girl of this town. And you know I don’t like players.”
He stayed silent for some seconds and kicked a pebbled from the ground. “Romeo doesn’t exist, you know… It’s just a character.” He shrugged and stood up.
“Maybe he does…” I mumbled under my breath and shrugged. We stayed quiet after that, but just for a minute.
He suddenly looked behind me with suspicious eyes. “Hey, what’s that over there?” he said.
“Got you!” I heard him shout as I realized I had his arms around my torso lifting me and placing me on his chest. Oh – oh.

Preview of Chapter 28
I was already thinking of everything I would say to him. First I would slap him strongly on the face. Yes, he deserved that. I would tell him how mad I was at him for not answering my message, for not coming to say goodbye. And third, when I would be sure no one was around, I would take his face in my hands and kiss him softly on the lips.
My stomach twisted as we were reaching the mansion. I was already biting my nails, hearing the possible explanation of why he did all this in my head. Because he was scared, as Jasper said… but he would fight today, I knew that. He would ask me to stay.
“We’re almost there, little girl.” Charlie sighed, happy.
“Yep,” I breathed, my stomach twisting once again.
“What are you going to tell him?”
“Everything. Just everything.”
Before my stomach could twist again, we were already there.
“I’ll wait here.” He smiled, encouraging me.
I nodded. After taking a deep breath I got out of the car. My legs for once determined to not give me to the ground and to let me fulfill my wish. I walked fast to the entry, almost ran.
I knocked twice before Esme opened the door. Her eyes sad and worried were talking to me, pleading.
“Oh Bella,” she sighed, pulling me into the house with her gentle hand. “I’m so glad you are here!”
“Esme, I need to see Edward.” My stomach was twisting again, the words going off my mouth all together. “Please.”
She shook her head, her eyes meeting the floor, ashamed. “He—” she trailed off, and met my stare. “He doesn’t want to see you, honey. I’m sorry.”
And the words came like swords directly into my heart, once again. As if it had never heard it before, it hurt as much as the first time. I tried to put my hands in something rigid, something that wouldn’t let me fall. But there was nothing near me. I clutched my feet to the ground. This wouldn’t win me. I would go and talk to him.
I closed my eyes and spoke through my gritted teeth. “I’d rather he told me that personally.”
She stared back at me in an immense inside debate. It seemed like hours when she spoke, but I knew there had only been seconds.
“All right,” she said. “He will hate me, but I think I could live with that.”
I nodded to her, thanking her through my eyes. And then my arms went alone to her shoulders and gave her a big hug. “Thank you, Esme. Not only for this but for every day you have been here for me. I could never thank you enough for that.” My eyes filled with tears as I remembered all the times she had been the mother I needed and didn’t have.
She hugged me more strongly. “You will always belong in here, Bella. Always.”
I kissed her cheek and ran to the stairs, my legs trembling, my heart pounding with violence. I didn’t stop till I met the shut door of his room. Alice and Emmett didn’t seem to be here, but I knew he was.
I thought for some seconds. Should I knock first? Would he answer if I said who I was?
But I couldn’t waste any more time. I only had the three steps I had thought in the car present in my mind. First slap, then ask for an explanation, then kiss him.
I turned the bolt, suddenly gaining all the strength in the world, and opened the door. My eyes took some seconds to adjust to the dark place. And it felt so cold, so dead. The curtains were down, his bed remained untouchable. My eyes scanned the room I knew by heart, desperately. Though now it seemed the room of a stranger.
And then they found him. He was crouched in his coach. His eyes were red, his features torn. But he was still so beautiful, so perfect…
Everything I had thought crumbled. Every little reason to yell at him, to be mad at him disappeared when I stared into his emerald green eyes. His eyes widened completely when he realized who was there, waiting in the door.
“Bella…” he breathed deeply. His voice came out distorted for the lack of use.
“Why?”
