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.”

    So sweeeeet ~

    Thanks 😀

  24. Stick in my mandatory awwww! Honestly, I’ve never met a Bella in my life. Or a Carlisle, Jasper, Rosalie, Esme, or Emmet either. Also never a Laurent.

  27. I just loved that letter! I couldn’t help from smiling as I was reading it. Toooo cute! Edward finally found his Bella 🙂

  28. This is the best story you have ever posted. I’f I hadn’t been at school, I would have died laughing over the casual “Edward, this is Bella” too funny! the whole story is just sooooo cute and sweet, I loved this story!

  30. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome.
    And there are so many references to the books in their meeting and conversation and story.
    (ha, this time Bella wasn’t the new girl, Edward was the new guy)

  33. Yes, like every other comment, this is going to contain a huge “AWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!! THAT WAS THE SWEETEST THING EVERRRR!!! I WANNA EDWARD!!!” <3

    And I just now got the “dying of thirst” part xD hilarioussss.If I had been one of those friends, I probably would have laughed myself silly for eons. xD

    Poor Eddie; he had no clue what he was getting in to! I would’ve loved to have been that Bella :]

    This is, by FAR, my favorite Twilight guy story EVER :]

    Best luck to Eddie & Bella

  35. OMG! That was the best yet!! I totally screamed when it was like edward this is bella!! this is a true fairytale!!!

  37. Aww. That’s the sweetest thing I think I’ve ever heard. So sweet it almost makes me wonder if he didn’t make it up lol. But I’m sure he didn’t, I’m just saying it’s super surreal. Congrats, all the best of luck!!

  42. That is the sweetest story I’ve heard of in a while. I wish/hope that one day we will all find our own Edward. Bella is very lucky to find her Edward/Eddie (BTW PLEASE USE YOUR REAL NAME).

  47. I am still swooning and giggling at the thought… just, wow!! “Edward, this is Bella” HOW PERFECT IS THAT?? I think fate intervened 😀

    One of the cutest stories I have ever heard, and somehow there was a Twiguy story out there that beat the rest! And I thought the proposal and glitter one were hard to beat… just, WOW! This tops them all!!! 😀

    Like many of the people out there, I can’t wait until something like this happens to me 😀 Just too perfect 🙂

  49. AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!! Ok omgsh, that was downright the cutest and most romantic story like ever!

    I hope you last forever, just like Edward and Bella. 😛

  50. that is the most cutest thing ever! best twilight guy story so far! I wish someone would ask me to be his stupid lamb!
