I glared at the pretty brunette. After years and years, I had finally mastered being able to look past her beautiful figure and brown eyes to her frozen heart. She was ice. She made my sister, Rosalie, a low-esteemed girl.
Rosalie was a senior when we were freshmen, and as shallow as Rose could be, she never thought to be called ugly. But Isabella Swan managed to do that.
Isabella Swan managed to get her out of the cheerleading squad she loved, and exposed to the school a picture of when she was sick.
Rose had her hair in a bun, and a runny nose. She was average-looking in that picture, but the words that Bella used when she described Rose in that photo were terrible.
The brunette smiled coldly back at me. She never came close to physically bothering me. She was smarter. I was pretty sure that her plan was to keep me guessing, to make me extremely paranoid.
It was a clever plan and it worked. I sighed as soon as she was out of view within the parking lot. She had her troupe of hopeless in-love boys and her wanna be girls.
I turned to Alice. She was a freshman and had heard every horrid thing Swan girl did. She was weary and cautious of her too.
I walked her to her Algebra class and made way to my Algebra II class. I was a sophomore but I was in advance math. I sighed. I couldn't wait for this high school hell to be over.
Mostly Isabella Swan ruined it for me with her awful pranks, rumors, and tight, slutty clothing. She was rumored to have been with loads of college boys. Oh, wow, I really care.
I was passing through the parking lot when I turned to a loud honk.
Isabella was in her smooth mustang when a van hit her from behind. I watched in horror as she jerked forward then back. Her head landed on the honk and the beeping noise struck the air, like a cold symphony to what happened.
My adrenaline hit my veins and pulsed through my body as I sprinted to her. I opened the door, scared to move her. Her spine could be injured. I flipped my phone calling Carlisle, much more reliable than 911.
The scared junior ran out his van, "Oh no!"
He had a bad cut in his forehead.
"Stop that bleeding." I ordered still looking around Swan for any deep gashes in her ivory skin.
"Hello?" Carlisle finally answered.
"I need an ambulance. Isabella was in a car accident. Hurry." I snapped the phone shut with a twist of my finger.
There was a piercing silence in the air, with the ragged breathing of Isabella, and the scared boy next to me.
"Is she okay?" He asked.
I frowned. "I don't know. There's no bleeding, a trauma to the brain and spine are possible though."
"Ah," He groaned his fisted hands going to his head.
I could hear the sirens in the distance now. I heard a tiny groan from Bella now. "Oooh."
"Don't move." I ordered. She turned her head a bit to me though.
"What…Where….Who are you?" She asked. I felt my eyes go wide. Definitely brain trauma.
BPOV:
Everything was a blur. There were two boys next to me. I could hear them chatting in low voices. The dull one was very frantic and sounded ready to pass out.
The other one was a symphony; it was calm, like a smooth doctor, always taking charge and keeping a clear head.
Why were they in those positions? I tried to focus my eyes, but everything went black.
"Oooh," I groaned trying to regain the vision.
"Don't move," the symphony-like voice ordered. I turned my head to see this person.
I blinked, as it hit me horridly. I felt myself about to pas out. "What…Where…Who are you?"
And with that the small consciousness I had flew through my fingers. I turned around in the car seat.
Wait, I wasn't in that car anymore. I could see the passing lights of the ceiling above me. My mouth was covered by a mask and I felt suffocated in it. I wanted to tear it off but a cold hand stopped me.
I looked up at the blonde man. Who was he?
"Please, Ms. Swan, stay awake," he pleaded but again I left. I was in pool of cool water. The heat was clear, I could feel it around me but my body was in the water. It was cool and soothing.
I felt myself sink my head in momentarily, trying to feel the relief in my head. I tried resurface again but I couldn't.
I started to thrash but it was all mental movement. My body stayed lifeless in the water. I finally moved my legs and pushed myself up. I gagged for air. I lifted my hands to rub the water off my eyes but they were red. I looked around horror struck at the pool of blood I was in. I screamed.
"Doctor!" I hear a woman cry out in horror. I looked around me frantically.
"Ms. Swan! Ms. Swan!" I turned to the blonde man. He looked familiar.
"Who are you?" I asked curiously.
"My name is Carlisle Cullen, I'm your doctor." I turned to the woman who screamed.
She looked like me. I suddenly flashed; she was leaning over my cut, tending it as I cried out Mom. My eyes watered, "Mom!"
"Oh, Bella, darling!" She threw her arms around me. I looked at the man who held her back. He had on a police badge. I was at a cold lake, it was awful and I wanted to go home. I turned to my dad, pulling on his hand, daddy I wanna go!
"Dad!" I cried out with tears. "I…" I turned to the doctor. "I can't remember anything."
I explained what I remembered and how I recognized my parents to the doctor. He frowned as he took in what I said. "This isn't a unique case, but not a common one either." He paced a bit.
"I think that it's best to catch up Bella in her education. And see with time the hope of her being able to go back to school." I turned to the doctor. I was surprised to see that I found something familiar in him, but I had no memory of him.
I turned my body away. I felt heavy suddenly. "I feel tired." My eyelids were drooping. Mom leaned over my body to kiss my forehead.
"Go to sleep sweetheart." She whispered. I smiled at her before letting the lights out in my head.
EPOV:
"Is she okay?" Carlisle slipped out of the room with a frown.
He turned to me. My question hung like a heavy blanket. "She…It's complicated." He launched into an explanation of what had occurred.
"Wow." I let out a whoosh of air. I felt my headache grow.
"I think you should go home son." He looked at me worriedly. I nodded in agreement.
"When is she going back to the school?" I asked.
"I don't know. It's up to her memory flashes." He signed a paper as he spoke. I turned around.
Bella Swan wasn't there for the rest of the sophomore year, but Carlisle said her parents found that she easily recalled and relearned everything she lost of her high school memory. We were the only two that knew I had been at the accident sight.
The junior, now a senior, had managed to forget my part in the accident, as a result of arrogance. His stories were all about his tragedy.
Then the junior year flew by. Bella Swan was in Arizona recovering her social skills at another high school. Charlie told Carlisle that she had wanted to return, and remember the people she met here. She didn't want to lose a good friend she might've had.
I was a senior now and well. I was worried. There had been an uneasy peace hanging over the school with her absence. The victims slowly rejoiced internally, but the troupe of hers had not been sure if she was really gone. Bella's absence made everyone queasier than when she had been here.
I frowned into the distance. Swan girl was not someone to be worried about even if she lost all her damn memory. All that memory that was filled with cruel acts and the meanest actions I'd ever seen. That girl needed a specialist.
I turned around to face Alice. Alice had turned into a girl with far too much spunk. I watched annoyed as she glared at a girl who had been talking bad about Alice. I understood anger, but this girl had apologized to Alice without Alice demanding it.
What more could she want? I didn't get girls. Too much make-up and drama came along with them. I wasn't going to go gay but when I noted a girl, it was mostly till I got bored.
No girl seemed to hold my attention long enough. I sighed as another group of giggling freshmen passed by. Their leader walked straight up to me.
"Are you Edward Cullen?" She asked being bold. I knew that without her friend's presence to make her feel brave she wouldn't do it.
"Yes, who the hell are you?"
She blinked stunned by my response. I tended not to be rude but Bella's wanting to return was bugging me. "I-I'm Jane."
I stuck out my hand in a stiff form of politeness. "A pleasure.""
She smiled in relief from the awkwardness and shook it. "Bye Edward," She smiled as she left. I gave her a tiny smile and turned my attention back to Alice. She was glaring at me.
"It wouldn't have killed you to be nice from the goddamn beginning!" She scolded. I shrugged.
I felt twitchy today. The semester was ending this day so school was an effortless peal of no work at all. I slipped off my headphones. My fingerless gloves felt too tight.
I pulled off my loose tie and put my feet up on the desk. I was at home. Why wasn't life always this easy? There was a quick knock on the door followed by the barging in of Alice.
What was the point of knocking if it still gave me no choice whether she entered or not.
"Edward…I just saw Bella Swan at the supermarket." She gushed running over to me. I looked up stunned.
"What?" I gagged. "That's not possible. Her parents couldn't possible have let her back. She lost every damn memory, unless…" Unless she gained it all back.
Alice frowned." What are you talking about?"
I pushed past her to Carlisle's den. "Carlisle did you know-"
"Bella's back. She's been back a week already." He sighed pinching the bridge of his nose. "She hasn't recovered her memory, but that's what brought her back."
He looked at me. "Renée said that's what is bringing her back. She feels she doesn't know herself. And well, the girl is lost. She can't remember people unless she hears or sees them. But her mother noted that she blocks out a lot of memory."
I turned away. "She's back." I whispered. "Don't tell Rosalie. Rose will do anything for revenge you know that."
Carlisle nodded. "Rose turned into a better person with that boy Emmett."
"I don't care." I snapped. Rose was still a cold girl in her own way and I doubt there was any new change. I turned on heel to my room. So what is she was coming back? It's not like it would affect me at all.
I shifted uncomfortably in my bed. Alice had left. I twisted in my sheets. I didn't like this. Stupid Swan girl was taking over my life.
