…CHAPTER 1: MUTT STENCH…
BPOV
Edward and I walked hand in hand to biology. Nowadays the students had almost get used to the idea that Edward and I were a couple. I was happy about that, it meant people weren't staring at us anymore and I've always felt uncomfortable when I was the center of attention. When we entered the biology classroom I noticed we weren't the first ones to arrive. We sat down and Angela was coming to our table. "Hey guys, how is everything going?" she asked. "Yeah, everything's fine." I replied. "Couldn't be better, Angela" Edward answered in his velvet voice.
Suddenly Mr. Banner walked in the classroom with a table full of … stuff. There really wasn't another word for it. I glanced at Edward, who looked at me. "We're going to have chemistry today." he answered my unspoken question. Sometimes, I had the feeling he could read my mind.
"Alright class." Mr. Banner spoke and everybody went silent. "Today we're going to study the reactions of animal DNA, with the art of chemistry. " Most of the students groaned. I on the other hand, thought it would be interesting. I've never worked with chemistry before.
Edward looked at me. "Excited aren't we?" He smiled his crooked smile which I loved so much. "It surely looks interesting." I answered him, smiling. He laughed quietly and 'focused' on the lesson again. "Every couple will get the DNA of a specific specie, the first ones who complete all the different reactions DNA can get from certain chemicals will get a prize, based on the DNA you're testing." Mr. Banner explained. "Get ready… 3… 2… 1… GO!" he finished and everybody, including me and Edward, started.
"Let's see. Hm… seems like we have gotten the DNA from a dog." Edward turned around to face me. "You've ever wanted a puppy Bella?" I nodded. "I did when I was younger, but unfortunately Renee is allergic so we never took one." Edward nodded respectfully. "I'm afraid we can't take a dog into the house either… it would be far too dangerous for the dog." I rolled my eyes "You've got to be kidding me" I replied sarcastically.
"So… what do we have here?" I asked Edward. Apparently he's done this before, so we worked quite quickly. "Alright love, only one test left." Edward confirmed. "this time we have to investigate at which temperature the dog DNA starts to evaporate." I nodded and put on the gas burner with the dog DNA on top. After a couple of minutes I measured the temperature and informed Edward. "So this is it?" I asked Edward. "Yes, pretty much." He answered shortly and went to find Mr. Banner to tell we were done.
While he went away, I gathered all our stuff and cleaned up our table, when I touched the gas burner. I flinched my arm towards the other direction. "Ouch!" I half- screamed. What I didn't noticed at the time was that my arm knocked the glass with liquid dog DNA… right in Edward's face. I stared at him with my mouth open. "Oh Edward, I'm so sorry!" Edward whipped some of the liquid off his face. "It's alright, I can easily wash it off." He answered, forgiving me. I noticed Mr. Banner was standing next to Edward, his lips quivering, trying not to laugh.
I was watching Edward who's expression was controlled, apparently he knew too Mr. Banner was trying not to burst out laughing and I guessed he was thinking in a horrible way about the accident, cause Edward was trying very hard not to look angry. "Well Edward, you'd better go to the toilet right away to clean yourself up a little. I don't know if the DNA will ruin your clothes, so you better hurry." Edward took Mr. Banner's advise after I whisper-told him Alice would rip him apart if his clothing would have permanent damage.
"Everyone pay attention please!" Mr. Banner shouted. "We've got two winners… Bella and Edward!" Most of the students groaned, not surprised at all, but somehow applauded after all. For a moment it felt like I was a mind reader, I could imagine what they were thinking. Of course you've won, you're working together with Edward Cullen the know-it-all.
When the bell rang, I walked to the toilet straight away to see Edward. "Hi Bella!" Alice greeted, she was standing at the toilets as well. "Hey Alice, how's Edward?" Alice grimaced "Not that well, when you threw all the DNA over him, some went into his mouth so right now he trying to throw it back up… without success." My good mood disappeared. Eww, dog DNA. Alice and I talked a bit, when Edward appeared. "Disgusting." He muttered almost angry. I felt even more sorry.
Edward noticed my expression. "It's not your fault, love. I could have ducked." He put his arms around my waist, giving me a loving hug and a quick kiss on my lips. "It's fine, Bella… really, I'm fine." To my surprise, I started to giggle. Edward raised an eyebrow. "It's just that normally I'm always the one who says things like 'I'm fine'."
Edward smiled his crooked smile again and I began to get a difficult time trying to breath. I huffed, and he thought he wasn't worth being loved. Ignoring the fact that Edward was over a hundred years old, he was a perfect gentleman in every way, which nowadays is barley seen. Nowadays most of the guys didn't open doors in front of a woman anymore, they wouldn't give them a kiss on the hand or escort them somewhere just because they want to, and most of all, nowadays nobody seems to give a sh!t about their virtue. That's one of many things that made Edward special… He wasn't too masochistic to hide his feelings.
Edward interrupted my stream of thoughts. "Let's get you something to eat, shall we?" I smiled and took his hand in mine, happy to have some physical contact. Just like always, Edward paid my lunch for me, ignoring my daily objection and Alice talked about the latest fashion in Amsterdam, complaining about my lack of clothes. The moment the bell rang everyone exited the cafeteria, not looking forward to classes.
Before I had a chance to get to my class, Edward grabbed my hand and led me to the hallway. "No kiss, for the one who smells like mutt?" he asked, jutting out his under lip. I smiled and Edward bend down and pressed his lips carefully on mine, moving slow but urgent. After a couple of seconds I noticed Edward wasn't pulling away like usual but instead moving further into the kiss, my breaths got shallow and Edward began to shiver.
No. he didn't shiver… he growled, and his whole body began to vibrate along with it. I broke the kiss. "Edward, what's going on. Are you ok?" Edward tried to adjust himself "I honestly don't know." He admitted "It feels different than when I normally growl and right now my spine won't stop quivering." "Maybe you should ask someone about it." I suggested. "Try Esme for once, rather than Carlisle, I think she will appreciate it."
He smiled at my advise "Thank you. It will make her extremely happy. It makes her feel more like a mother; her son asking her for advise, I'll mention it was your idea." Edward answered.
I was happy that I was able to help. Edward gave me a soft kiss on my forehead and vanished into thin air.
School went by awfully slow that day without Edward being near. I sighed, I wish I knew what was happening to him…
