Next up on our playlist, some fist-pounding P!nk. As usual, hints to our song for the chapter are part of our PicTease (provided by the lovely Mina Rivera) which is posted alongside our Fictionators tease on the RH Blog. RabbitHeartff.blogspot.com

I'm working on finishing up our Rabbit Heart Outtake that will be included in the Fandom Fights Tsunami charity compilation. It's a glimpse into Scrappy & Shaggy's past, with an interesting tie-in with our upcoming chapter! I'm very excited! Thanks for sticking with me!

Angela grinned and folded her hands in front of her. "You're not at all what expected, Bella Swan."

Bella raised an eyebrow. "Do tell, Miss Weber."

"From everything I've heard around town, I thought you'd be more, hmmmm," she paused thoughtfully, "more of the girl next door type."

"Okay, I'll take the bait. What's that supposed to mean?"

"First off, you're very pretty. Not supermodel gorgeous, but much more than the plain Jane I expected you to be. You also have this air of confidence that seems slightly out of place in this dingy little town."

Angela eyed her speculatively for a moment, before smirking. "You remind me a bit of myself, actually. I guess that's understandable since you've garnered Edward's attention."

"Excuse me?" Bella replied, not quite sure if that was an insult or not.

"Well, I mean, look at the big picture. Edward loves me; he has for years. Then a girl comes to town, who reminds him so much of his lost love. Naturally, an attachment formed. But I'm back now, so you can go back to whatever rock you crawled out from under." She smiled another eerily sweet smile.

Thanks for sharing your POV. I can totally see how it works on both sides. =)

He narrowed his eyes, noticing the mischievous twinkle in hers. His fingers dug into her sides, causing her to squeal and jerk her body, trying to escape the tickle assault.

"St-stop," she giggled, breathlessly.

The pair froze when something hard brushed up against her thigh. "Sorry," he mumbled as he swallowed thickly, his cheeks tinting pink. He dropped his fingers, attempting to untangle himself from her gently. She instinctively reached out and wrapped her arms around his neck, not allowing him to back away.

"Don't be," she whispered. "And don't be embarassed, my body reacts the same way to you."

His lips quirked, trying to hold back a smile. "Really? I doubt your body responds like this, Bella," he whispered seductively, pressing himself harder against her thigh.

Thanks again and see you soon!

"Edward?" she called out, sliding her wet and heavy jeans down her legs.

"Upstairs," he replied, his voice slightly muffled.

She padded silently up the to the second floor and towards his wide open bedroom door.

"Hey," she said softly, standing in his doorway in only her panties and damp shirt.

He was reclining on his bed, reading through a stack of papers. At the sound of her voice, he looked up and his eyebrows knit in confusion as he took in her appearance and wet hair.

"What happened to you?" he asked, not unkindly.

She motioned towards the window. "It started to pour."

He looked over, surprised that the weather had changed. "Oh, sorry," he murmured sheepishly. He held up the papers in his hand and shrugged. "I got sucked in."
