EDWARD MEETS BELLA…IN REAL LIFE

Dear Kaleb,

So up until about two months ago, my Twilight knowledge was limited to mocking any girl I saw for reading “that apple book”.

But when I moved across the country to live with my uncle, swapping into a co-ed high school with my cousin, out of nowhere there were apples, flowers, ribbons and chess pieces everywhere there was estrogen, including the desks of some of my teachers! It roused my curiosity a bit more and I asked my cousin about it, worried I’d find out she was as crazy obsessed with it as all the other girls were. To my huge relief, she informed me that she wasn’t. She was just starting the first audio-book a friend had lent her. It was supposed to be this epic love story. Bleh.

Anyway, Liz got me invited to a friend’s party later that week since I was the ‘new guy’. Just after I got there, I spotted a girl across the room chatting up with some friends. The most conspicuous thing about her was that she was wearing casual clothes at a Halloween party.

I asked Liz about her and she kinda did a double take when she saw who I was talking about. Told me that was Bella, the girl who’d lent her the Twilight audio. I felt weird just walking up to her out of nowhere so I asked Liz if she’d introduce me and she obliged.

“Hey, guys. This is my cousin,” she told them casually, “Edward, this is Bella.”

And the girls totally flipped, especially Bella. Scared the crap out of me too. They squealed and giggled and I turned beet red, feeling like an idiot since I’d always hated my full name.

“Just Eddie,” I corrected with a glare at my cousin as I shook Bella’s hand.

Out of nowhere (again) the girls decided to unanimously ditch the two of us with some lame ‘dying of thirst’ line, leaving Bella and me alone. So in an attempt to make small talk, I asked her about her outfit and if she couldn’t find a costume. She blushed quite obviously and told me she was dressed as ‘Bella Swan’

Logically, I figured that meant she really COULDN’T find an outfit. When I told her as much, she gave me a LOOK.

“Bella Swan? From Twilight?” she asked me, like it was supposed to be clear as day.

“The apple book?” I asked, not having any idea whatsoever what that had to do with anything.

“You really don’t KNOW?” she said, almost laughing.

This exchange led into a long and detailed conversation which started with explaining (to my embarrassment) about the novel’s characters EDWARD Cullen and BELLA Swan and why my introduction sent her and her friends into fits of hysteria. It lasted pretty much the entire party, about vampire baseball and how transformed human blood makes vampires stronger, the whole deal. When the party ended, she tattooed most of my forearm with websites to check out if I was interested, including this one. Thrown somewhere in the middle was her number.

So before my uncle came around to pick us up, I asked Liz, casually as I could, if I could upload the audio book to my MP3 player. She rolled her eyes, as she pulled out her iPod and lent me a headphone.

Three weeks later, we’d gone through all four audiobooks and I was starting to follow the movie news (was I the only one who NEVER saw that proposal coming?). Liz’s crowd, including Bella (who I’d been talking to since Halloween) invited me to go to the midnight movie.

As we were walking out, I figured now or never and asked Bella if she wouldn’t mind being my stupid lamb. Ignoring her friends who awwed and cheered behind us, she just laughed and told me that she was glad it didn’t take me 90 years.”

  4. AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWw.
    That had to be the most adorable story ever posted on this website! There really is no contest. You guys had better stay together forever, unless some dude named Jacob turns up. And that would be just plain creepy. XD

  5. AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that is one of the sweetest things I’ve ever heard!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😀 sigh… I want to be a Bella!!!!!!!!!!
    🙁

  7. Omg that was so freakin awesome!!

    I wonder if they will get married and have a child named Renesmee.. XD haha

  8. OME!
    That’s the cutest thing ever!!!
    That is my favourite one of them all 🙂
    AWWWW!
    ♥

  9. I hope they stay together… you never know with HS romances. Lol… what if the girls name had been Jessica, or Tanya? How would the friends have taken THAT?
    😀

  10. gah!!!!!!!!!!!! this was the best yet!!!! this really made my day!!! *giggles* this story is ADORABLE!!!!!!….. sigh…. why cant interesting things ever happen to me???lol.

    vivs!!

  11. Wow, that’s just about the most adorable thing I have ever heard. I wish Eddie and Bella the best of luck C:

  12. Hi!!!
    We can see that you are a real fan! so we woulk like to invite you to visit our blog and if you want and know spanish you can do our twilight’s test! thank you 🙂
    Julieta, Marianela and Carolina 🙂

  14. I KNEW having your name as bella was good luck. Crap. Mine is definitely not Bella. That story was adorable!! So incredibly cool. The only bad thing is that now every girl will envy this story forever. Me, included. Adorable though. Many aaawa from any female audience. And male, too, of course.

  18. AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW, this has to be the cutest story thus far. I just can’t stop smiling now 🙂

  19. WOw, hey eddie? Start going by the full name. Seriosly. Wow that is pretty much the scariest thing ever. And what are the odds?

    That’s really cool.

  20. aw that is so cute. I hope you guys work out and just don’t move because your brothers a prat okay. Because that would be bad.

  21. Alice is definitely my favorite Cullen, hands down. She’s my favorite besides Edward. Don’t get me wrong, I’m kind of in love with Carlisle, but Alice is so bubbly and funny. As for who I would want on my side in a fight…I’m going to have to say Alice, and this is a pretty bad reason, but Carlisle doesn’t like killing people, I’m not saying Alice does but she wouldn’t be as…hesitant.

  25. SOOOO many great lines could be said here.
    such as: Does Eddie have any brothers, and if so, can I meet them?
    question: do either of them know anyone named Jacob? Because THAT would be freaky.

    But, wow seriously. Wow. This is offically my favorite Twiguy story ever.

  26. Out of nowhere (again) the girls decided to unanimously ditch the two of us with some lame ‘dying of thirst’ line

    That part was so great. And the whole fact that when they were introduced he had no idea what the “Bella this is Edward” meant. Hahahah, I would have laughed so hard!

    Oh, and Krystol, if Jacob ever does come around, send him in my direction, I’ve been looking for him, but these Edwards keep getting in my way!

  28. OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    the BEST story yet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    aw aw awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  29. AAaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!! ^^

  30. AAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!! My heart just melted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love it when you keep posting cute stories like this, Kaleb. =D HHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWW CCCCCUUUUUUUUUTTTTTTTTTEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!

  32. By the way…if Eddie is really reading this than…..PLEASE go by you’re full name. PLEASE! But…watch out….you may get a few stalkers…You probably already do actually….

  34. This is one of the best reports ever! And then he asked her to be his stupid lamb… that was so sweet… I nearly cried. Sorry, I’m a very big romantic.

  35. Ok this story is the best ever! HAHA that is so weird but REALLY REALLY awesome! I mean I’m sure that you don’t hear stories like this often! I mean what are the chances?? Haha I have a friend named Bella who loves Twilight… I need to find her an Edward to hook her up with;) This story is so cool! You know I would have fainted if I was one of Bella’s friends standing there. Haha Eddie if your reading this you need to go to the twilight store and get the Bella’s engagement ring if you ever purpose to her=)

  36. *sigh*
    Why didn’t my parents name ME Bella. >.>
    Hehe.
    You go Eddie! That was super duper adorable!

  38. LUCKY! OMG amazing story who would have thought this could actually happen and i wish I had an Edward.

  39. Wow so this is definetly my favorite twiguy story. i figured she was dressed as bella at the halloween party, but “Edward, meet Bella” i didnt see that one coming. i gotta admit im a little jealous of this one

  40. that is soooooooooooooo adorable
    just saying
    i didn’t take the time to read the 85 comments ahead of me, but i’m pretty sure they’re probably similar
    sorry, lame i know but i’m in the middle of highschool midterm week
    so basically thanks for saving me from exam blues kaleb and pretty much OMG thats an AMAZING twilight guy story….
    now if only i could find my own edward…..

  41. Awww! That was so cute. I was giggling through the whole thing. I mean that is a major coincidence. How many times do two people with those names meet and like Twilight. Or just the girl and then the boy.
    It must be weird to have to listen to Twilight and hear your name in the story. Still, I thought that was a really good story!

  42. Aww! That’s REALLY weird/freaky, but in an amazing way haha. This makes me sad though that that wouldn’t happen to me :(. But seriously.. I would DIE laughing or fainting if I was around for the “Bella, this is Edward” hahahahahahahahaha.
