danger!
Bella: I told you I didnāt want to fight with Charlie.
Edward: Nobody said that you had to.
Bella: Well my natural instincts of a teenager take over.
Edward: Well thatās not my fault.
Bella: Does this sudden urge to see Florida have anything to do with the party at Billyās place?
Edward: Nothing at all. It wouldnāt matter if you were here or on the other side of the world, you still wouldnāt be going. So what do you want to do tonight?
Bella: Can we go to your house? I havenāt seen Esme in so long.
Edward: Sheāll like that, especially when she hears what weāre doing this weekend.
Scene 6
Bella: Youād better not come in. It will only make things worse.
Edward: His thoughts are relatively calm.
Bella: Iāll see you later.
Edward: Iāll be back when Charlieās snoring.
Charlie: Could you come in here, Bella?
Bella: Whatās up, Dad?
Charlie: Did you have a nice time tonight?
Bella: Yes.
Charlie: What did you do?
Bella: Hung out with Alice and Jasper. Edward beat Alice at chess, and then I played Jasper. He buried me.
Charlie: Look, thereās something I need to say.
Bella: What is it, Dad?
Charlie: Iām not good at this kind of thing. I donāt know how to start. Okay Bella hereās the thing. You and Edward seem pretty serious. There are a lot of important things you need to know why you, well, when youāre physically involved with.
Bella: Oh, please, please no! Please donāt tell me youāre trying to have a sex talk with me, Charlie.
Charlie: I am you father. I have responsibilities. Remember, Iām just as embarrassed as you are. Just tell me youāre being responsible.
Bella: Donāt worry about it dad. Itās not like that. Maybe the times have changed, but Edward is very old fashioned. You have nothing to worry about.
Charlie: Sure he is.
Bella: Ugh.
Charlie: Night, Bells.
Bella: See you in the morning. (Go upstairs and thinks) You care if I see Jake tonight? I wonāt stay long.
Charlie: Sure, kid. No problem.
Bella: Thanks. (Gets in car and notices Edward) Gah!
Edward: Alice called. She got nervous when you future rather abruptly disappeared five minutes ago. Iāll put your car back together in time for school. Shut your window if you donāt want me to come in. Iāll understand.
Charlie: Whatās wrong?
Bella: Truck wonāt start.
Charlie: Want me to look at it?
Bella: No. Iāll try in the morning.
Charlie: Want to use my car?
Bella: No, Iām tired. Good-night.
Scene 7
Edward: Youāve been very quiet. Did the plane make you sick?
Bella: No, Iām okay.
Edward: Are you sad to leave?
Bella: More relieved than sad, I think. Renee is so much more perceptive than Charlie in some ways. It makes me jumpy.
Edward: Your mother has a very interesting mind. Almost childlike, but very insightful. She sees things differently than other people.
Renee: Bella?
Bella: What is it, Mom?
Renee: Iām worriedā¦.
Bella: Whatās wrong? What can I do?
Renee: Itās not me. Iām worried about you and Edward.
Bella: Oh.
Renee: You two are more serious than Iād been thinking. Thereās something strange about the way you two are together. The way he watches you itās so protective. Like heās about to throw himself in front of a bullet to save you or something.
Bella: Thatās a bad thing?
Renee: No. Itās just different. Heās very intense about you and very careful. I feel like I donāt really understand your relationship. Like thereās some secret Iām missing.
Bella: I think youāre imagining things, Mom.
Renee: Itās not just him. I wish you could see how you move around him.
Bella: What do you mean?
Renee: The way you move, you orient yourself around him without even thinking about it. When he moves, even a little bit, you adjust your position at the same time. Like magnets or gravity. Youāre like a satellite, or something. Iāve never seen anything like it.
Bella: Donāt tell me. Youāre reading mysteries again, arenāt you? Or is it sci-fi this time?
Renee: Thatās beside the point.
Bella: Found anything good?
Renee: Well, there was one, but that doesnāt matter. Weāre talking about you right now.
Bella: You should stick to romance, Mom. You know how you freak yourself out.
Renee: Iām being silly, arenāt I?
Bella: Not silly, just being a mom.
Renee: And this isnāt enough to get you to move back in with you silly mom? You get used to the humidity.
Bella: You can get used to rain, too.
Scene 8
Edward: Weāre home, Sleeping Beauty. Time to awake.
Bella: How bad?
Edward: Charlieās not going to be difficult. He missed you.
Charlie: Welcome home, kid! How was Jacksonville?
Bella: Moist. And Buggy.
Charlie: So Renee didnāt sell you on the University of Florida?
Bella: She tried. But Iād rather drink water than inhale it.
Charlie: Did you have a nice time?
Edward: Yes. Renee was very hospitable.
Charlie: Thatās um good. Glad you had fun.
Bella: Impressive.
Charlie: I really missed you, Bells. The food around here sucks when youāre gone.
Bella: Iāll get on it.
Charlie: Would you call Jacob first? Heās been bugging me every five minutes since six oāclock this morning. I promised Iād have you call him before you even unpacked.
Bella: Jacob wants to talk to me?
Charlie: Pretty bad, Iād say. He wouldnāt tell what it was about, just said it was important. Thatās him again, Iād bet my next paycheck.
Bella: I got it. Hello?
Jacob: Youāre back.
Bella: Yes.
Jacob: Why didnāt you call me?
Bella: Because Iāve been in the house for exactly four seconds and your call interrupted Charlie telling me that youād called.
Jacob: Oh. Sorry.
Bella: Sure. Now, why are you harassing Charlie?
Jacob: I need to talk to you.
Bella: Yeah, I figured out that part all by myself. Go ahead.
Jacob: You going to school tomorrow?
Bella: Of course I am. Why wouldnāt I?
Jacob: I dunno. Just curious.
Bella: So what did you want to talk about, Jake?
Jacob: Nothing really, I guess. I wanted to hear your voice.
Bella: Yeah, I know. Iām so glad you called me, Jake I ā
Jacob: I have to go.
Bella: What?
Jacob: Iāll talk to you soon, okay?
Bella: But, Jake. That was short.
Edward: Is everything all right?
Bella: I donāt know. I wonder what that was about.
Edward: Your guess is probably better than mine.
Bella: Mmm.
Edward: Whatās wrong? Bella?
Bella: I thinkā¦ I think he was checking. Checking to make sure. That Iām human, I mean. Weāll have to leave before. So that it doesnāt break the treaty. We wonāt ever be able to come back.
Edward: I know.
Charlie: Ahem. If you donāt want to make dinner, I can call for a pizza.
Bella: No, thatās okay, Iām already started.
Charlie: Okay.
Scene 9
Edward: If I asked you something, would you trust me?
Bella: That depends.
Edward: I was afraid you would say that.
Bella: What do you want me to do, Edward?
Edward: I want you to stay in the car. I want you to wait here until I come back for you.
Bella: But why? Oh.
Edward: You jumped to the wrong conclusion last night. He asked about school because he knew that I would be where you were. He was looking for a safe place to talk to me. A place with witnesses.
Bella: Iām not staying in the car.
Edward: Of course not. Well, letās get this over with. You could have called us.
Jacob: Sorry. I donāt have leeches on my speed dial.
Edward: You could have reached me at Bellaās house, of course. This is hardly the place, Jacob. Could we discuss this later?
Jacob: Sure, sure. Iāll stop by your crypt after school. Whatās wrong with now?
Edward: I already know what you came to say. Message delivered. Consider us warned.
Bella: Warned? What are you talking about?
Jacob: You didnāt tell her? What, were you afraid sheād take our side?
Edward: Please drop it, Jacob.
Jacob: Why?
Bella: What donāt I know? Edward? Jake?
Jacob: He didnāt tell you that his big brother crossed the line Saturday night? Paul was totally justified in-
Edward: It was no-manās land!
Jacob: Was not!
Bella: Emmett and Paul? What happened? Were they fighting? Why? Did Paul get hurt?
Edward: No one fought. No one got hurt. Donāt be anxious.
Jacob: You didnāt tell her anything at all, did you? Is that why you took her away? So she wouldnāt know that-?
Edward: Leave now!
Jacob: Why havenāt you told her?
Bella: She came back for me?
Edward: Itās fine. Itās fine. Iāll never let her get close to you, itās fine. Does that answer your question, mongrel?
Jacob: You donāt think Bella has a right to know? Itās her life.
Edward: Why should she be frightened when she was never in danger?
Jacob: Better frightened than lied to.
Edward: Do you really think hurting her is better than protecting her?
Jacob: Sheās tougher than you think. And sheās been through worse. Thatās funny.
Bella: What are you doing to him?
Edward: Itās nothing, Bella. Jacob just has a good memory, thatās all.
Bella: Stop it! Whatever youāre doing.
Jacob: Sure if you want. Itās his own fault if he doesnāt like the things I remember, though.
Edward: The principal is on his way to discourage loitering on school property. Letās get to English Bella so youāre not involved.
Jacob: Heās a little over protective, isnāt he? Let me guess youāre not allowed to have fun, are you?
Bella: Shut up, Jacob.
Jacob: That sounds like a no. If you ever want a life again, come to my place. I still have your motorcycle in the garage.
Bella: You promised Charlie you would sell it.
Jacob: I wouldnāt sell something thatās not mine.
Bella: Jakeā¦
Jacob: Come see me.
Bella: I, er, donāt know about that, Jake.
Jacob: I miss you every day, Bella. Itās not the same without you.
Bella: I know, and Iām sorry Jake I justā¦
Jacob: I know. It doesnāt matter right. Who needs friends?
Principal: Okay get to class. Move along Mr. Crowley.
Bella: Get to school Jake.
Principal: I mean it, detention for anyone whoās still standing here when I turn around again. Ah, Mr. Cullen. Do we have a problem here?
Edward: Not at all, Mr. Greene. We were just on our way to class.
Principal: Excellent. I donāt seem to recognize your friend. Are you a new student here?
Jacob: Nope.
Principal: Then I suggest you remove yourself from school property at once, before I call the police.
Jacob: Yes, sir.
Principal: Mr. Cullen, I expect you to ask your friend to keep himself to trespassing on school property, again.
Edward: Heās no friend of mine.
Principal: I see. If you worried about anything Iāll be happy to....
Edward: Thereās no trouble here, Mr. Greene. Message delivered. Do you feel well enough to go to class?
Bella: Yes.
(Edward and Bella pass notes)
Mr. Berty: Is that something youād like to share there, Mr. Cullen?
Edward: My notes?
Mr. Berty: Oh.
Scene 10
Jacob: Bella?
Bella: Hey, Jake!
Jacob: Bella! I canāt believe it! How did you get here?
Bella: I snuck out!
Jacob: Awesome!
Billy: Hey Bella.
Bella: Are you okay Jake? Charlie said you were having a bad time. Isnāt it getting any better?
Jacob: Sānot so bad. What are you thinking about?
Bella: The sun.
Jacob: Mmm. Itās nice.
Bella: Haha. I think I need to go.
Jacob: But you just got here!
Bella: It seems that way.
Jacob: I donāt know when Iāll see you again.
Bella: Iāll come back the next time heās away.
