A Different Girl

Chapter 1

Jade Grayson was sitting on her black and silver bed, her eyes furiously moving across the pages of her book. Her fingers gripped it tightly as she read, her mind filled with the story. Nothing could tear her from this story…

"Jade! Come out here!" Jade sighed when she heard her mom calling her. She sounded extra cheerful, especially having just gotten back from work.

"Coming, mom" she said, annoyed. She was just getting to the good part, too! But she couldn't say no to her mom.

Jade opened the door of her room and walked out into the hallway. Her eyes got wider when she saw a young man standing there, smiling shyly at her. He had long, tangled black hair and deep onyx eyes. His eyes were different, though...they were like pools of dark ink, and contained so much emotion, she could have stared into them forever. His face was unnaturally pale, and covered in little scars that were pink from neglect. A black leather suit covered in gold buckles, studs, and zippers covered his entire body. But the thing that amazed her was his hands. Where normal flesh should have been, there were long, metal blades, nervously snipping together. Most would have screamed or ran, but Jade was astounded at the beautiful sight before her. She had no idea what had happened to his hands, but his current ones were so intriguing, she sort of smiled.

He saw her smiling at her and he returned her smile, his confidence growing.

"I..I'm Jade." She stammered, her gaze quickly going to her feet as she blushed. She wasn't good around people.

"I'm Edward." He whispered softly.

"Isn't he just wonderful? He can sleep in Kim's room for now. I'm sure she won't mind."

Edward looked at Peg, puzzled.

"Oh! That's right! Come, come, you two, let me show Edward our family pictures!"
Peg led them over to a shelf filled with pictures.

"This is Bill, my husband," she pointed to a taller, balding man, "This is Kevin, my son," who was a brown haired boy that looked about 11. "And this is Kim, with Jade." Edward stared at the picture. In it was a pretty red-haired girl, about 15, and Jade, about the same height as her, sitting next to her. They were eating candy apples and smiling as they posed for a picture.

Edward couldn't take his eyes of the picture. Right now, Jade was wearing plain casual clothes and her short, black hair was sort of messy. In the picture, though, she was wearing nicer clothes, and her hair fell in her face in a nice way. His father had given him brief lessons on girls, but the ones he had learned about were different than the ones in this family. He turned quickly to face Jade, and Peg, who was looking at him curiously. Peg was smiling slightly, while Jade's cheeks were red and she was half-smiling as she stared at her feet. Peg elbowed Jade jokingly and she blushed even harder.

Edward just twitched his scissorhands nervously. Had he done something wrong? Peg noticed his worried expression and told him it was fine, but he only heard half of what he said. He couldn't take his eyes off of Jade. The girls he had seen were different; they were odd looking with revealing clothes and lots of makeup; they always looked like they were so much better than the world. But Jade looked nothing like that, and he admired that about her.

Realizing he was starring, he moved his line of vision quickly to somewhere else, and they stood in silence for a moment. Then Peg suggested, "Why don't you go put some nicer clothes on! I'll be right back, I'll get some of Bill's; they should fit." Peg scurried off to fetch some clothes for her new guest.

Edward suddenly snapped out of his thought at Jade's voice.

"Your hands…they are so beautiful…"

She reached over and ran her fingers over the cool metal, making sure to touch the non-sharp side.

"Thank you" he whispered. "You're beautiful too," he added.

"Jade began to blush again and barely managed a thank you.

"I'm sorry! Did I do something wrong? Your cheeks keep getting red…are you hurt?"

Jade laughed meekly and said, "That just means I'm…embarrassed a little."

"Really?" he asked, confused. "Why?"

"Well, no one has ever told me I'm beautiful before…"
Edward cocked his head to the side and said, "Well…you are beautiful."

Jade smiled again, less embarrassed. He seemed so innocent and kind, not like the stupid boys she had met in college.

"You are really nice, Edward."

Jade wasn't trying to sound cheesy, but she sucked at the whole 'social' thing.

"Thanks. You are too."

They walked down the hallway together, talking quietly about themselves in a feeble attempt to get to know each other. Neither of them were very talkative usually, so it was new for them.

"So you lived in the mansion on the hill?"

"Yeah, my father and I lived together until one day…he didn't wake up."

"I'm sorry, Edward." Jade was honestly touched by his sadness.

"Don't be…"

They were silent the rest of the way, lost in thought about each other.

A/N: Well, hoped you liked it! I think it's a little rushed, but you get the picture. More Edward and other characters next chapter, I promise ;) I couldn't really come up with a cliffhanger. R&R, it keeps me motivated
