Bella [POV]

My day had been long and boring. The book store wasn't doing so well business wise lately, so Jake and I really had nothing to do other than sit around and wait for a miracle. Not that the store was the place to be before or anything. Hell the place never really took off at all, but it was our dream to own it and we were doing everything we could to hold it together.

I sat at my usually place at the front desk reading while Jake stocked things on the shelves. I swear I had read every book in the store at least twice and maybe some books even more. We had our usual every day customers show up and look around for anything new, or just to drop by and say 'Hi'. Very rarely did we see a new face around here.

As our last customer walked out I hadn't realized someone came in until I heard them clear their throat right in front of me. I jumped slightly and pulled the book away from my face.

"How can I help you today sir?" It took me a moment to actually take in who I was looking at and my breath caught in my throat. Standing before me was none other than Edward Cullen. I quickly took a double take out the window and back at him to make sure I had not somehow ended up in someone else's store. Nope he was really there, but why? I never thought I would ever have the chance to cross his path again and he somehow managed to find his way into my store. Unbelievable.

I pulled myself together and kept telling the voices in my head to treat him as a normal person. Sure he was an actor and everyone knew who he was, but he was just like everyone else.

"Do you sell used Cd's here?" He asked calmly. He was rich and famous and he wanted used Cd's? I didn't question it and motioned to the back of the store where they were and gave him a soft smile.

I tilted my head slightly as I watched him walk away and tried to shut out the millions of thoughts racing through my brain. Thats when I finally started thinking clearly and realized Jake was back there stocking shelves. If he saw Edward he may scar him for life.
