Chapter 1: New Girl!
Angela's POV
I was sitting in the cafeteria, listening to everyone talk about the new girl, Isabella Swan. She looked very shy, and blushed a lot…Maybe we will get along I thought to myself, since I was similar. I watched Jessica drag her over to our table, looking quite uncomfortable. "Hi I'm Angela." I spoke while waving slightly. The girl looked up at me and gave me a slight smile.
"I'm Bella." She said while taking a seat across from me, playing with an apple. That's when I felt it, that all too familiar tingle on the nape of my neck… Edward was here. Bella looked wide eyed behind me and asked Jessica who they were. She explained that Alice and Jasper were a couple, and Emmett and Rosalie were a couple and then she mentioned Edward, and said he was too stuck up. I wanted to tell her she was just upset that he turned her down, but maybe she was right, maybe he did feel that way. I have tried speaking to him in the past, but he barely looks in my direction. I look down at myself and push my glasses up No wonder he wont look at you Angela, your not a very attractive person. I scold myself.
The lunch goes by quick, and Bella keeps staring at Edward, and he stares back. I try not to notice, but I see it. Who could blame him, she is beautiful. As soon as I think it Edward whips his head towards me, his eyes softening, I look down quickly, embarrassed that I had been caught. "I'm gonna go." I mumbled, while standing up and leaving the cafeteria quickly.
"Hey Angela, wait up." Yells Alice Cullen, quite loudly, her voice reminds me of bells and is almost soothing, all of there voices are like that… especially Edwards I muse. I stop and wait for Alice to catch up, she doesn't usually talk to me, so I'm curious.
"Hey Alice, whats up." I ask with a shaky voice. Alice smiles brightly and loops her arm with mine, and starts walking down the hall with me.
"Well I have been slacking on notes in social studies and I was um- kind of wondering if I could use yours." My eyes widened Alice was always the head of the class. Slacking was something I didn't know she could do.
"Oh umm of course, its just in my locker." I tell her as I start walking towards it. "I can photocopy it if you want, so you don't have to re-write it." I tell her, as I fish it out.
Alice claps excitedly. "Oh that would be so wonderful Angela, thank you so much." I smile shyly and nod, feeling out of my element with her. We quickly make our way to the library so I can copy the notes before the bell rings. "So do you have any classes with Edward?" Alice questions with a smile.
"Umm ya actually I have biology with him next." I tell her, my face heating at the mention of her brothers name. Alice's smile grows.
"Oh good, can you give this to him." She passes me a folded piece of paper, before flitting away rather quickly. I would have told her no if she stayed… maybe she knew that. I got into class and spotted Edward right away, the back row, by himself. I walked towards him and shakily held my hand out towards him.
"This is for you, Alice asked me to give it to you." I practically yelled and thrust the paper forward, feeling embarrassed as hell. Why cant you just act normal around him I yell at myself. Edwards brows are furrowed as he slowly takes the note and nods. Without saying another word I turn around to take my seat beside Ben, when I notice the new girl Bella sitting there, Ben talking animatedly with her. My shoulders slump, as I realize I have to sit beside Edward. Now most people would say well that's perfect, you like him, a lot, so now is your chance… but I feel sick to my stomach, worried I might say something to him, something to make him angry or annoyed. "Umm I guess I'm sitting with you." I mumble as I turn back and sit down beside Edward. He stiffened as I sat, and I cant help but feel put out. I'm not that bad am I. I think to myself.
"Alright class eyes up here, Angela you will be seated there for the rest of the year, I figured Isabella and Ben would be a good pair since She has don't most of this class, and Ben is behind." I nod in understanding and take out my text book. There was nothing but reading to do in that class today, so it was very quiet, I noticed Edward was so still, I couldn't even hear him breath. He was like a statue.
From the corner I my eye I see that Edward still hasn't opened the note I gave him from Alice. "Aren't you going to read that?" I blurt out, without thinking. I start to blush and Edward gives me a sideways glance before shrugging and picking the note up, he opens it slowly, and I notice it is blank, completely blank. What is the point of getting me to give him a blank piece of paper. I think feeling a little annoyed. "Why would she want me to give you that, it has nothing on it." I say rather dryly. Edward shrugs again, saying nothing. Does he ever talk.
The bell rings and everyone files out of class quickly, I am almost the last one to leave, but just as I walk out the doors, I stop dead in my tracks. In front of me, Edward has Bella backed up against a locker, and he is breathing deeply, I can see his chest heaving, Bella is staring at him wide eyed with her hands on his chest. Tears prick at the corner of my eyes as I race past them, not wanting anyone to see me so weak. don't cry, don't cry, don't cry. I chant to myself as I turn the corner. Running into what felt like a brick wall, looking up I realize it is Jasper, Alice's Man, he has a pained expression on his face as he looks down at me. I apologize quickly and run past him.
The girls washroom is quiet, and I quickly wash my face with cold water. I knew he wasn't mine and I had no right feeling the way I did, but seeing him with no one at all was easier than seeing him with someone. I quickly sucked it up and walked out of the bathroom and to my next class. Alice was standing outside the classroom with a blank expression on her face. I would have asked her if she was alright, but I was afraid that if I spoke, I may lose control and cry. So I walked by her quickly and found my seat beside Jessica. "What's with you?" Jessica asks kind of rudely. I just shrug at her. She giggles beside me and leans over. "Aww Ang, you knew he would find someone eventually, and your not good looking enough for him." She coos in my ear. I could feel the tears prick in my eyes, so I got up abruptly and left the room, leaving my books behind. I quickly ran out the front doors, and started walking home. I really need a car. I think as I walk the twenty minutes to my house, on the outskirts of town.
"Hunny what are you doing home so early." My Mom questioned, wiping her hands on the hand towel and started walking towards me. I shrugged, not wanting to cry in front of my Mom over a boy who wont even look my way. "Oh sweety what's wrong?" she asks, like she can sense the way I'm feeling. I shake my head violently as Mom envelopes me in a hug, my tears start to poor down my face on there own accord. "It's okay you don't have to talk about it." She says as she runs her hands through my hair. What will I do without you Mom? I think to myself as I cry even harder on her small fragile shoulders. The cancer has made her so small.
I woke up early the next morning, with my eyes feeling like I had dumped sand into them. I groaned and slowly got up out of bed realizing I left everything at school, even my work for my last class. "Oh I hope no one threw my stuff out." I groan my body aching from the hard cry. I walk downstairs and see my Mom gasping for breath sitting on the stairs. "Mom, Mom are you okay." I yell as I run down the rest of the stairs. She looks up at me with sad eyes and shrugs.
"It's getting close Ang, I think it's time we discussed this." I nod and sit down, knowing she was right, she was getting sicker by the second.
I went to school in a fog, classes were going by quickly and before I knew it I was sitting beside the stiff Edward, but for once, I didn't look his way, all I could think of is my Mom…Oh god I'm gonna miss her. I scrubbed my face with my hands, thankful I wasn't much for make up.
Flashback
"I think you are old enough to live here by yourself, I have made sure to pay everything off, and I have already paid for my burial." My eyes widened as she mentioned that, shaking my head, wishing I was five years old so I could plug my ears. "The bills aren't too bad, but I have made sure there is enough money to last you the next couple years… I'm just so sorry that I cant put you through college."
"Fuck College." I shout, covering my mouth afterwards. Mom's eyes widen before she cracks a smile.
"It's alright to be angry Ang, I sure am, scream, yell, do what you have to do." She tells me, while gripping my hand tighter. "I just wish I could be here to watch you graduate." She says with tears in her eyes.
"Maybe you can." I say falsely hopeful. Mom shakes her head and tears start to stream down her face.
"It's soon Ang, I can feel it like a dark shadow, looming, waiting to get me, and part of me, oh god forgive me, part of me wants to go now, just to stop the pain." I nod in understanding, knowing that she hurts all the time. "Now get ready and go to school, I love you sweet pea." She mumbles as she kisses my forehead.
End Flashback
I look down at my paper realizing there are tear drops on it, I hadn't even realized I was crying. I quickly wipe my face with my sleeve and wipe my paper off quickly, smearing the words I had written. I sniffle and try hard not to think about it anymore.
The bell rings and I jump up, ready to race out of class, but decide to trip over the chair. Before making contact with the floor two strong cold arms capture me and pull me up, my head leans against the hard chest as I get me bearings. The electric shock coursing through my body tells me who the person is before I even look up and see his normally liquid honey eyes completely black. He is looking down at me with a look of confusion on his face, I realize my hands are on his chest, and it reminds me of Bella and him the day before. I quickly remove my hands and back away slightly. "Thank you." I mumbled out grabbing the books that fell on the floor, and walk more slowly out, not wanting to embarrass myself anymore.
"Stay away from him he's dangerous." Someone says over my shoulder. I look back and realize it's Bella Swan. I roll my eyes at her antics.
"Sure sure." I say before heading to my next class with Jessica.
"Hey Angela." She says while I sit down. I nod not wanting to talk to her. "Listen, I'm really sorry about yesterday, I was being a bitch." She says in a low voice, and I tell her its fine before class starts. I noticed Alice watching me from across the room, and when I look up her eyes are sad. She looks like she knows more than she should. I think to myself as I look back to the teacher, and start writing notes.
Okay there is the first Chapter! I have to get this out, Edward and Angela… hmm I dunno what it is, I just think they would be a cute couple….. Next Chapter Edwards POV!
