A/N: OK, peoples! This is The Thoughts in her Mind-Twilight. This will just be a collection of one-shots that will often (more likely always) have nothing to do with each other. They would normally be separate, but I'm not normal. (:
So this is the first one, entitled Odd Thoughts in Odd Places. The summery is as follows:
Edward is waiting for Alice to finish shopping when he hears some very unusual thoughts…aimed right at him.
Short and simple. Just like that. Enjoy!
Oh, and I totally own Specky, thought that is mentioned in my General Disclaimer on my profile. And, though I do not own them, they are partly OC's so you can't steal Jenna, Skye, Alexa (or Aliexia), or Cassandra. They all own themselves, as they are real people.
--------------
Woo, that boy is fine! Oh, I hope he isn't with that pretty little girl next to him because I want a piece of that!
Edward sighed. He was walking along with Alice in a mall, (well, actually it was more like being forced to follow her at a barely human pace) boredly picking things out of the minds around him. His Bella was at home playing with Renesmee. He missed her so much. Even though the distance was near nothing, it was distance and-
"Edward, don't you dare try to skip out on me!" Alice warned, seeing the plans he had, with his heart full of false hope, decided he would try. He sighed.
"Besides, these are for your daughter! It's our last year here and I would hope that we could get her some fabric memoirs of her birth place! And I need you to help! You have to give me opinions on how she would look in things; you know how she looks better than I do."
"Alice, hate to break it to you, but you have a perfect memory. And even if she weren't going to outgrow them in two days, you'd never let Renesmee wear them again." Alice stuck her tongue out at her brother.
She stopped suddenly and dashed into a store with a quick, "Wait here if you must but stay!" thrown at him. He sighed again and sat on the wooden bench next to the store to think about Bella, remembering to shift every now and again.
Looking to the left, he noticed a group of four girls, no older than 13, looking at the display of a book store. The first girl he saw had naturally tanned skin, (half Mexican, maybe?) dark brown hair and hazel eyes that got browner as they got closer to the pupil. He tried to read her mind.
I wonder if-But-whoa! Didn't see-No way, that-Tomorrow is rain again so-Jen better-Ooh-dang, missed that one-Oh, lets prevent-Cute ending! Now I have to read-Oh, poor Skye-Not wasting money on that-This book looks-Oh, Dad will be mad, the stock's going to be-Oh, I'm gonna punch-Ha, Abby really is funny- Dang I lost the game!-What the heck!-Ew, squat thrusts in gym, gotta tell Aliexia-That is Colin's watch-Who is she? Who is he- I hate this! Detention!-Oh, nice, Jordan!
A whole mix of thoughts and pictures entered his brain, giving him a massive headache, something he hadn't had in a very long time. The girls mind had things from previously in the store and thoughts she had now. But oddest of all was a picture of her talking to me and Alice about…something. The movie-like-thought was cut off by another of Algebra 1 homework with an INC in blue marker on top. 'Weird,' he thought to himself. 'It's almost as if she can see the future.' Shaking his head from his ridiculous thoughts, he moved to read the next girl's mind, who was shorter than the others, had near black hair, purple glasses around rich brown eyes (nowhere near the color his beautiful Bella's were, he thought biasedly) and a distinct Asian air about her appearance.
Weird, it's almost as if she can see the future. Weird, it's almost as if she can see the future. Weird, it's almost as if she can see the future. Weird, it's almost as if she can see the future. Weird, it's almost as if she can see the future.
All he could here this time was his own thoughts bounced back at him over and over. But then he caught something else.
Ooh, another mind reader, who is he?
Then, her thoughts left her mind and entered the first girl's.
Who's that guy on the bench, the one reading our minds?
The first girl mentally replied.
The girl who will come out of the store will call him Edward…oh, no way!
Her mind became jumbled again, but then re-cleared.
Sorry! But you are so thinking what I am. Well, of course you are. Oh you know what I mean!
The first girl thought of the movie-thought where we were talking to them. About being who they thought we were. The Cullens. The vampires.
Le gasp! You're right, he's mentally freaking out over there! He heard us! Hi Edward!
He was indeed, like the second girl said, mentally freaking out. 'How on earth could they know our secret!? And how did they get powers like those. The first girl was definitely a physic and the second could definitely read minds and, apparently, send thoughts as well. Did the others have powers as well?'
He realized that the mind reader/sender had said something to me so he nodded my head in their direction.
Oh, my gosh! It is him! Jenna, Skye, it's Edward Cullen!
This thought was sent to the group as a whole and the two other girls, one with blonde hair and gold rimmed glasses around pale green eyes and the other with light brown hair, thick red and black rimmed glasses, and rich blue-green eyes, looked up at the first girl.
Alexa, what kind of sugar have you been eating and why aren't you sharing?
The blonde girl thought, looking incredulously at the second girl, Alexa, apparently. The other girl's thoughts were along the same tenor, though she didn't want any of whatever made her think that he was himself.
Gosh, then, don't believe us! And no, Jen, you cannot have my sugar! It rocks and if you try to touch it, I'll have Cass sic Specky on you!
So, if the blonde girl was Jen, or Jenna, he guessed, then Skye must be the girl with the light brown hair. Cass must be the physic. He had no clue who Specky was, thought the thoughts gave off the feeling of power and a spider...odd.
You have us all figured out, now, Eddie!
He growled under my breath as the physic, Cass, saw him calling them by their names and thought this at him, using a nickname that Emmett will use just to annoy him.
Oh, nice, Cass, now he's all mad at you.
Oh, I'm sorry, Eddie! It's just, being called Cassie by my oh-so-loving friend here-she gestured to Jenna-I have a thing for taking my anger out on other people with annoying nicknames. And I just knew that would get on your nerves!
Cass was grinning evilly. In this rant, though, he caught a tenor of an under thought saying that her real name was Cassandra and that Cass was her preferred nickname. 'How fitting. Cassandra, just like the Greek legend of the Oracle, whose name was Cassandra. She was insane, though.' Alexa relayed his thoughts to Cassandra. Then they thought the same thing simultaneously.
Well, it fits even more with the whole 'insane' thing!
With Alexa sending her thought to Cassandra as soon as she thought it, they knew they had thought the same thing. They slapped a high-five and announced "Awesome!" which was the first thing he had heard them actually say.
Just then, Alice came out of the store.
"Well, ready to meet these girls?" She asked him, hooking her tiny arm around his. He grinned.
"You saw this whole thing happening, didn't you?" Alice smiled her I'm-Alice-I-can-do-as-I-wish smile and skipped over to the girls. Shaking his head and smirking, he followed.
A/N: Heh, there's a long story behind the whole 'powers' thing but, if you're curious, I'm Cassandra. Read and review!
