It
had been one hundred years since I changed Bella into a vampire. We were
heading back to Forks to start another life. We were moving into the old house,
and Bella was excited to be near the Swan family. Her family had continued, and
they still lived in Forks. We were going to go back to Forks high school, and
she was glad she could see the old school again. She has had a lot of practice
with being a vampire since we moved schools so much before. Renesmee had
already grown up to her full growth and was going to attend high school with
us. Jacob now lived with us so he could be with Renesmee, his wife. It was
awkward to have so many married families in one house, me and Bella, Renesmee
and Jacob, Emmett and Rose, Alice and Jasper, and Carlisle and Esme. Each
bedroom in the house held a married couple's room. Bella and I had my old room.
None of us could wear our wedding rings in school or when we went somewhere
except Carlisle and Esme.
You seem lost in thought.-Bella
Bella opened her shield around me so I could hear her thoughts. I quickly
removed all expressions from my face before we walked in the double doors of
Forks high school. Alice and Bella were bouncing with joy of a new school.
Bella learned from Alice quickly, so now every time we moved schools Bella and
Alice were the ones jumping up and down, happily. We walked through the doors
and Bella attracted ever male in the entire room towards her. Rose and I
growled under our breaths, she was used to being the favorite, and I didn't
like these guys so close to my wife. It was as if we were the famous people
stepping into the crowd of fans without bodyguards. Sigh. Every time we went to
a new school every guy fell in love with Bella. My Bella. Renesmee attracted
some attention too, but Jacob scared them off with a loud growl before any of
them could talk to her. My growls didn't come as loudly, so the guys normally
talked to my wife, and I normally stood up and looked at them with pure evil in
my eyes. Rose was annoyed that she didn't get any more attention, and I was
starting to miss the time when she had all the attention instead of Bella. I
was also glad that I didn't have to worry about sucking the life out of my wife
anymore, so that was one upside. We were heading to our first class, and for
the first time in a while, I didn't have to, as Bella used to put it, dazzle
the teachers to put me in her class. We were going to English, and Bella had some
male followers who had the same classes she did, and they were also getting on
my nerves. We were going over things we understood from the years of learning
this stuff over and over, so Bella practiced expanding her shield. I thought it
was interesting because I said next to her, and the shield always managed to
stay around me, so I could hear her thoughts. She managed to get tired of her
shield halfway through the class and started to draw in her notebook, so I was
picking through the other classmate's brains.
I might try and as out Bella after What the heck dose this teacher even mean?! I wonder what Bella would look like in my bed, under my blanket.
school, but her and that one guy look really serious.
boy. Jasper must have been in the class next door because I was suddenly calm.
I would have to remember to thank him for that; I really didn't need to stress
out Bella. I quickly removed all expression from my face before Bella noticed.
The bell rang before I could continue with my thoughts, and I half dragged
Bella to the cafeteria; I didn't want her near that one kid. We walked at human
speed to our table after getting the food that was needed to make us look
human. Bella wrinkled her nose in disgust, and I laughed along with the rest of
the family. She did that every time we moved schools and had to get lunch. I
saw the kid that I was hoping wouldn't come near my Bella and watched him walk
across the room.
You look like you're in pain. Calm down,
I know there are some guys in this school that like me, but I love you.Bella always had the advantage to calm me quicker than the others, even Jasper,
but I couldn't help notice the guy that wanted her walking our way. I was
annoyed, but Bella quickly grabbed my hand, and kissed me. The guy walked
closer and closer. I about stood up, walked over there, and punched the guy in
the face for even thinking about my Bella like that.
Okay, Matt you can do this. You just have
to ignore the big guy, and ask Bella on a date.I growled quietly, but not quite enough because Bella looked at me, and
frowned; she knew my weaknesses. Matt walked closer to my Bella, and I just got
tenser and tenser.
Edward, it's okay, calm down. I love you.Jasper realized what was happening and quickly calmed my mood, but it didn't
last long. I knew, and so did Bella, that if he said the wrong words, I would
end up killing him. He walked over slowly, quickening his pace as he got closer
to Bella.
"Hi ,Bella. I'm Matt. I was wondering if you would like to go on a date with me
this Saturday." Matt said, lacking confidence.
"No thank you, Matt." Bella said, smiling up at his, as it being his cue to
leave.
"Oh come on, baby. That guys a loser. Dump him, and date me." He said with more
confidence than before.
Matt quickly leaned down, and gave Bella a kiss on her lips before she could
move. Bella didn't realize what he'd done; she was looking behind him, and didn't
see him move. She quickly realized what happened as I was getting out of my
chair. I walked over to Matt until I was face to face with him. Bella stood
behind me, telling me this wasn't a good idea. I stared at Matt like he'd committed
a murder for a few seconds before he reached up, and tried to punch me in the
face, but I caught his hand in my fist without even moving an inch. He stood
there, amazed that I was able to do that, and stared at me. A few seconds later
he shifted his gaze to Bella, and I didn't like what he was staring at. She
didn't notice that he was staring right at her shirt. He shifted his gaze back
to me before I caught him, but he didn't know he was already too late, I saw
what he had done. I threw a punch, and it didn't take super hearing to be able
to hear his jaw crack many times. He fell to the ground with even more cracks
when he landed. Bella was at my side, staring at me in fear. Even though she
wasn't human, the pain of someone else hurt her. I believed she had a heart
that was too silent for us to hear like she believed I had a soul. She was
different than most vampires; it hurt her when a human was injured by one of
us. She never liked it, and I always caved into her sadness, and made her happy
somehow before the day was over. After lunch, all that was on my mind was
keeping Bella away from Matt for the rest of the day. Every time we passed him
I pulled Bella closer to me, but she just opened her shield and told me it was
okay all day. We were pulling out of the high school's parking lot when Matt
steps in front of us to ask Bella out again. I was in the driver's seat so I stomped
on the gas pedal.
