Disclaimer: Yup it's true – I don't own the characters from this story, just the plot.
This is Maaya – Enjoy!!
Coward. That describes me perfectly. This is the third year now, and yet I haven't done anything about it.
My name is Edward Cullen, I'm 17 years old. I got to Los Angles International High school. I am the captain of the basketball team and I have a super hot girlfriend called Tanya, ah I love my life.
Lie
All of that is a façade. I hate being the stuck up arrogant jerk and having to snicker at those who aren't jocks like me. I hate having to put up with my so called 'girlfriend' – I know she's a slut who is shallower than my mum's frying pan. But guess what? There's nothing I can do about it.
Hence, the Coward.
Every single day, I have to walk down the corridor with all the girls all eyeing me in inappropriate ways and guys sucking up to me and trying to join the cool crowd.
Cool my ass.
And you know whose fault it is?
That filthy, vile Mike Newton. Stupid fag.
"Listen man! There's going to be an awesome party tomorrow night and there's going to be a new collection!" Mike nudged me. Gross, absolutely disgusting the way he talked about girls, as if we were going to buy horses. Well it's there fault too, for shamelessly throwing themselves at us, so everyone's to blame.
"Sure, whatever, text me the details" I replied.
Every time, refusal bubbled up onto my mouth, but every time, I agreed. Here I could knock the daylights out of anyone with one punch, but I couldn't decline to ass-crack Mike Newton's party. Pathetic.
Within this sea of popularity, I really had two friends that I genuinely like; Jasper Hale and Emmett McCarty. Jasper was calm, serene person who had an affect on everyone around him, to an emotional extent. He had a twin sister, Rosalie, a tall blonde with sparkling blue eyes, similar to Jasper's. She was a cheerleader who was also was a part of the 'elite' crowd. Rose actually was different to the other – she had a talent and a brain that actually functioned, unlike some other cheerleaders. She was dating Emmett, a tall brawny guy with black curly hair and sapphire eyes. Emmett had the characteristics of a teddy bear, who was retardedly funny.
I was walking towards my class when I got punched in the arm.
"Edward, ma man wasssup?" Mike sidekick wannabe – gangster, Tyler.
"Tyler" I acknowledged him.
"Ooh man! That's smokin" he looked pointedly at some poor girl's ass. Great from horses, they were now steak.
"You can do better" I lied; he couldn't find anyone, unless they liked perverts.
I didn't wait for Tyler's answer. Knowing it would be crude, and I walked away swiftly to my computers class.
I always liked my computers class, we always got to express the real side of us, or at least I did. I also liked the class because none of the 'elite' crowd was in it, so I could sit peacefully and not pretend to be someone I wasn't.
I entered the classroom; everyone was sitting around the middle table, while Mr. Hussain, the computers teacher was talking to another student, so he didn't notice my late arrival. I quickly slipped into a seat beside Angela Weber. We had been in the same class 5th grade, but we had never conversed. She smiled at me acknowledging my presence. I nodded in reply.
Angela was a no nonsense personality and I felt that she didn't believe in all the arrogant crap inside me, which made me flash a smile. She laughed and turned back to her boyfriend, Ben Cheney. I was happy for them; at least they LIKED each other, if not loved! Unlike myself who detested Tanya, right to the gut.
Mr. Hussain interrupted my good-guy moment,
"Sorry about the late start. Now, as every year, we are going to begin the guess-your-chat month! As you know, the computer will be automatically selecting your buddy. You will need to get to know them and at the end of the month you will guess who your chat buddy is!"
Lame, Lame, LAME! Last year, I was graciously paired with Jessica Stanley, who strted tokin lyk dis nd pissd meh off. In fact, for the rest of the month instead of talking to her, I caught up with my homework, because Jessica's intensions were … wrong, wrong, wrong!! Just like webcam stripping. I shuddered.
So, Mr. Lame – idea Hussian assigned us to our seats and I ended in the corner of the, across me sat Katie Marshall, who was far to happy for the average teenager.
"Ohmigod! I'm so excited; I can't wait until I find out who my partner is!" She sort of reminded me of Alice, my little pixie like twin sister, standing at 4'11; she had more energy than a nuclear reactor.
I sighed Alice and I, were not on the best of terms.
Ever since I let myself to the sharks (in my case Mike and Tyler). Alice has been hostile giving me ultimatums, such as 'Your sista or ya mista's'. I suppose Tyler isn't the only potential gangster around here.
I singed into my account and create a username for the chat room. After much deliberation, I settled for Forks. My hometown , in Washington , a clam and resigned place characterised by the green forest surroundings it and all year rain. I waited for a few minutes while the programme was picking out my chat buddy at random.
Meanwhile, I looked up at all the classes that had Computers at the same time as me. There were 3 other classes. I clicked on each one and checked the list of names. Some were not in my grade, so I didn't know them; others were not in my 'social circle'. They were very few people from the elite crowd. Yay!
Your chat buddy : Juliet
I began the chat.
Forks: Hello
Juliet: Hello to you too, you know Forks is a place in Washington?
That threw me off. Definitely not Tanya, or Lauren, or Jessica. They're too dumb to know that.
Forks: Yes, I happen to come from there.
Juliet: Me too : D
Forks: Alice, is that you?
Juliet: Nope, Alice is in gym.
What? How did he/she know that? And someone from Forks? That's a first.
Forks: How do you know that, stalker?
Juliet: How do you know her and why are you so concerned? And I just looked up the timetables.
I couldn't tell him/her that Alice was my sister, it would give it away.
Forks: Alice is an acquaintance, that's all. Hey! I did that too! Great minds think alike!
Juliet: Indeed, my friend. Wait are you a he/she?
They typed the question which I was going to ask.
Forks: He, and you?
Juliet: She : )
Just as I was about to type, the bell rang, signalling the end of the class.
Forks: Oh, well, speak to you tomorrow, Juliet : P
Juliet: I bet I'll see you today, without even knowing it! Bye! xox
I laughed, she was so true, and for once, I was excited to talk to her again. The rest of the day passed in the regular fashion of me pretending to be an obnoxious ass wipe and people falling for it.
After school, I was attacked be Tanya, who was in for an intense make out session, just after a quick peck, I politely leaned away, anymore and I would of gagged right at her.
"Eddie, you will now guess what happened today" Ugh Eddie, I hat that name.
"What?" I asked, knowing it was going to be something completely unimportant, as always.
"In gym, I hurt my face, the bitch threw a ball at my face" she continued dead serious. I tried to stifle my laughter, Tanya was so slow, a snail could outnumber her. Blondes A/N – NO OFFENCE TO ANYONE – Tanya is just a stupid blonde in this story!! Sorry!!
"That bitch Alice" She muttered, I jerked upwards and spun around from my retreating position.
She could break all the fake nails she wanted, she could cheat on me as much as she liked, but she was not going to disrespect my family like that!
"Don't you dare talk about my sister like that" I threatened, in a low menacing voice.
"Well tell her to stop throwing balls at my face!" She shouted.
"Why don't you try and catching it for one, retard!" I retorted, wondering where the sudden confidence came from. We stood there for a moment, jaws locked, ready to attack – verbally, of course.
"Look Edward" – She sneered my name.
"If you can't support me and go all male bitch on me, then it's over!" She squealed. I barked a laugh – male bitch.
"I'd only be happy to oblige" I replied, smugly. She 'hmphed' and trotted away, leaving me incredibly happy.
After the subject of my sister erupting almost 3 times today, I decided to go straight home and make amends. Of course, that's easily said then done.
I walked to Alice's room and heard giggling. I suppose Alice's 'Best Friend Forever' was over, Isabella. She had brown hair and pale skin; she was slightly taller than Alice – completely average. When opened the door, Alice was waving some electric hair at … Rosalie's face.
Interesting, but not surprising – Rosalie never fit in with Lauren and her bimbo gang! I was happy for her, at last she had found her match when it came to shopping.
And sitting in the chair was none other than Isabella (she liked being called Bella though) with her hair half straight and half curly, blushing scarlet.
"Guys, we have company" she muttered.
Alice and Rosalie stopped to look at me, no scratch that, they glared at me.
"Uh, I wanted to talk to you Alice, but … I'll do that later" I stuttered under their intimidating glare. Laughter erupted from everywhere.
"Who knew, Edward Cullen was afraid of his sister!" Bella exclaimed – It was my turn to blush. Jaw dropping would be a good reaction, but it wouldn't be a professional comeback, would it?
"Well I'm sorry for interrupting 'Barbie' time!" I looked towards Bella and smirked. I turned on my heel and walked out, pleases with myself, I heard Bella growl, I shook my head and laughed, women.
After 3 hours of virtually doing nothing except having a very stupid with Emmett (which didn't even count, because talking about bathroom tiles wasn't helping anyone) Alice's friends left.
"Hi Alice' I hugged her.
"Umm, hi Edward" She look surprised.
"Look, I'm sorry about everything and I'll promise, I'll change." I vowed. She looked at me as if I had rubella.
"O…k? What have you done to 'change' yourself, dear brother?" She raised her eyebrow.
"I dumped Tanya" I announced, time to gloat and gloat some more.
Hah! Now her jaw dropped, how ironic.
"Finally" two happy voices came from the kitchen. My parents – Carlisle and Esme.
"Mom, Dad!" I wined.
"We're just happy for you, son" My dad said, nice to know you trusted me in my choices.
Alice flashed me a smile and danced around me, strange girl.
"Remember Eddie, this is only the first step" She warned.
I internally groaned – remembering what else I had to do …
