Edward sighed. "This is going to take forever." He thought. He was at school and just finished taking a midterm test. All the other kids were still on the first and second page of the four page test when he just finished. He had lost count of how many times he'd taken this kind of midterm. Of course this one was a little different but it was pretty much the same like all the others. "High school is a waste of time."

He tried his best to tune out all the other thoughts that were pouring through his head that were pointless and stupid. Mostly answers and a few wondering thoughts. He was sick of this and would rather be with Bella than here. But she was in another class, he thought since he had nothing better to do, he might as well check in on her.

She was talking to Mike no doubt. "So Bella what did you and Edward do this weekend?"

Bella said "Oh we caught a movie and I went over to his house to hang out with him and his family."

Mike said "Oh… that sounds nice. You know I'm surprised you haven't…."

"I like to singa about the moona and juna and springa. I like to singa about a sky of blue or tea for two…"

Edward's head shot up. "Where did that come from?" Edward looked around the room. He thought Alice was with him for a second there because that thought he heard was pretty random. Edward had never heard this before in his class room. He listened carefully for more.

He looked at the girl next to him. "Let's see the Civil War was faught between…. a) The North and South b) East and West. c) There was no Civil War. Well it has to be C. There was no Civil War because I would've heard about it!"

Edward shook his head. She was an idiot. He was surprised she was even in this class or even in high school. She made Emmett sound smart! He rolled his eyes and turned to the next person.

"I knew I should've studied….and look at Cullen. He's already done! Tammy is done too!"

"Tammy?" Edward thought. Edward didn't pay much attention in any of his classes. They were all the same any ways. He knew the lectures and heard the stories before and he could read the teacher's minds so that didn't make a difference and the only people he really associated with other than his family was Bella. He rarely talked to anyone else.

He concentrated carefully til he found the right one.

"….It Ends Tonight….I love to I love to sing…Just a little insight. Won't make this right….Ha! Looks like It Ends Tonight wins! Oh well…"

"Bulls eye!" Edward thought. He found the girl named Tammy. She was sitting a little bit away from him. She was a transfer student and came at the beginning of the school year unlike Bella. She was a quiet girl and kept herself. When she first saw the Cullens, she wasn't terrified but just curious. She thought the Cullen boys were cute but wasn't obsessive over them and thought Alice and Rosalie were beautiful. She ate by herself at lunch but had a sketchbook with her and sometimes she'd bring her guitar to school but rarely did because of the rain. She had come from Texas and was naturally tan so a lot of people questioned her about cowboys, horses and ranches because they thought that's where she came from. Edward remembered hearing her thoughts a couple of times about how annoyed she was with everyone thinking she came from a ranch when she just came from a city. Edward felt a little bad for her because she had no friends and nobody tried to talk to her like Bella. They thought Tammy was too weird when she wasn't. Edward knew that the only reason why Tammy sang a song out loud or did a little dance in her chair during class was to have fun.

Edward listened to her thoughts more carefully "It ends tonight. It ends. When darkness turns to light…. Sigh. I really wish everyone would hurry up. I'm so board! The test was pretty easy. I wish I could listen to music-actual music not the ones playing in my head. I'm thinking if I hurry and finished lunch today, I could probably…what's the use? He's never going to noticed me!"

Edward was a little shocked. This girl's mind was really something. She was able to tune people out on her own and she could play songs in her head like a radio and then cut them off while she thinks and still have the song continue as if nothing? He felt a little guilty reading her thoughts and in a way¸ he was hoping that she wasn't referring to him or Jasper or Emmitt. Rosalie would kill her.

Just then the image of the boy, she was thinking about came clearly. He was a senior, a little skinny and bonny like her , he had big forehead and dark curly hair. Edward had seen him around school a few times. He had some classes with his sibs and was an ok guy.

"He's so hot….but he'll never noticed a looser like me. Hell I don't' even have friends at this school! I wished I didn't have to move here to this stupid place. Plus the people here are vile. That boy Mike is an idiot and girl Jessica is a real bitch! And..."

Edward smiled and laughed silently. The teacher looked up and saw Edward smiling. It was very unusual to see Edward Cullen smiling in his class. "Is there something very amusing Mr. Cullen?" the teacher asked. Everyone, including Tammy turned to look at Edward.

"No, sir." Replied Edward.

"Very well then. Return to your test everyone." Commanded the teacher. "That boy is very strange."

Edward was about to tune people out again when he heard Tammy's thoughts above everyone else's thoughts. "I wonder what that was about with Edward. He's so different and misunderstood. I feel bad for the things people say about him and his family. Bella sure is lucky to have someone who cares about her."

Edward wondered a lot about this girl. She really was different than he expected. She wasn't some syco , conceded weird girl. She was just lonely. Maybe he could help her out. He was surprised that she caught onto Mike's stupidity and Jessica's selfish acts. Although anyone could figure out Mike's stupidity.

This was insane! Here Edward was feeling sorry for some human girl. Well he felt fine around some humans but this one here, she didn't even know him and she felt bad for him right off the bat. And it wasn't because she liked him. He never met a human like her. He tried to recall what her thoughts were when Bella first came to Forks. Everyone had talked about her and he remembered everyone's thoughts. But Tammy's thoughts? Tammy didn't have any classes with Bella so she never got to see her in person until lunch time. Tammy had brought lunch from home that day and saw Bella "Hey, there's the new new girl. She's already surrounded by new friends. That's good…wait Jessica? Oh boy. Hopefully she can see into her 'friendly' act." That was the last thought that Tammy ever had of Bella, that is until she heard about how he saved Bella from getting crushed in the school parking lot…Then Edward heard her giggling in her head.

"I wonder if I could try and talk to him after school…how would I do it? He's always around his friends…ugh! See this is why I think boys should make the first move. If he likes me, he should make that move right? Isn't that how it's supposed to be? Although am I making this up? I think he likes me. He always smiles at me in the halls and says hi to me. We've both end up bumping into each other a lot in the halls and we've talked some in class. He personally asked for my picture and he gave me his senior picture! And we had eaten lunch together a couple of times... …"

*Bell rings*

"Alright class turn in your test. And I've posted the who you'll be partnering up with for your projects on the door." Called out the teacher.

All the students got up, grabbed their stuff and turned in the paper. Edward tried not to be too fast but he was one of the first people at the door looking at who he was going to be working with. He wasn't exactly thrilled and he was sure whoever he was stuck with wouldn't be either. He saw his name and his eyes widened at the name across from his name.

"OH MY GOD! Looks like Tammy is suck working with Edward Cullen!" laughed at Sally (the idiot girl who sat next to him)

"Check it out, the freaks working together!" shouted Johnny (the boy who didn't study).

Everyone started laughing. Edward glanced at Tammy who was standing behind the crowd. Her eyes were wide too but then she looked down and pushed her way through the crowd. "Is Edward afraid to work with me too? Does he think I'm a freak?"
