Chapter 1

I was standing in line at the local Starbucks on a cold rainy Saturday when I saw him. He had coppery brown hair, and emerald green eyes, you could get lost in for days. I wonder if he just moved here, I've never seen him around, and this town is pretty small. I live in Greenville, North Carolina which is just east of Raleigh. My name is Bella Swan. I'm 21 and a junior at East Carolina University working part time at Play-Date. I'm studying business so one day I can open up my own bakery.

"Next" I hear the barista say, so I move up and order a tall Vanilla Bean Frappuccino and a slice of pound cake. After I pay, I move to get my order and find an empty table. Just as I settled and had my notes from class out there is a tap on my shoulder. "May I sit down? There are no other seats left and I need to finish a paper." I look up and there is green eyes, in all his glory, standing there looking back at me. "Uh, sure, go ahead."

He sat down across from me, pulled out his laptop, and began working. After a few minutes of both of us working green eyes looked up. "I'm sorry I should have introduced myself, my name is Edward." "Hi, I'm Bella, nice to meet you Edward." "It's nice to meet you too Bella." Edward looked down and began typing again. "I was wondering do you go to ECU." "Yes I do, I just transferred from Duke University." "Why did you transfer, if you don't mind my asking?" "Don't worry its fine. I transferred to be closer to my family. They live in Kinston." "Aw, that's sweet. My great grandparents use to live in Kinston." "Oh, did they move?" "Um, no, they died a couple months ago." I looked down at the table trying to keep the tears back. "Bella, I'm so sorry, I shouldn't have asked." "No its okay, really, it was more than 3 years ago."

We sat and talked for the next hour and a half learning everything we could about each other. Edward was born in South Carolina, and moved to Kinston when he was 15. He is now 23 and has two siblings: His sister Rosalie is 21, and his brother Jasper is 18. His parents Carlisle and Esme have been married for almost 30 years. He is in his fifth year of school working toward a master's degree in business and mechanics. He wants to move back to South Carolina after graduation and open his own mechanic shop.

I looked down at my phone and almost chocked on my drink when I was the time. "I'm sorry, but I have to go. I was supposed to be at my brother's 20 minutes ago." He frowned a little before saying anything. "It's ok, go ahead. I had a nice time talking to you today!" "I did too! Thanks for the company." "You're absolutely welcome. Do you think I could maybe get your number? You know in case I need someone to sit with at Starbucks." "Of course you can!" I wrote it down and handed it to him as I stood up. Grabbing my back and almost empty cup I started to walk away. When I got to the door I turned around and looked smiled at him. "Bye Edward." "Bye Bella, I'll call you!" Smiling like an idiot I walked out the door to my car.

A/N: Sorry its short I promise the next chapter will be longer. Review, and hope you enjoyed!
