Trembling Hearts-a Twilight fanfic
Chapter 1
AN: My friends told me that because I love Twilight so much, I should do a Twilight fanfic! I decided to do a Twilight fanfic where it's the same plot as Twilight, but I'm in it and it takes place where I live, not Forks. Also, I've changed some stuff so it'll fit me better.
Cold misery welled through the recesses of my empty chest. I walked to the school in the cold, freezing rain that dropped down upon my despair-filled head and heart, filling me with an ever-widening hole that threatened to grow and grow until it consumed me. I was starting school at a new school where I didn't know anyone. It was going to be a long year that threatened infinte misery.
"Hi," said a girl with brown hair and big blue eyes that I knew was so much prettier than me and would always overshadow me.
"Hi," I said without enthusiasm. Without any enthusiasm at all.
"My name's Jessica," said Jessica.
"My name's Sarah," I murmured tonelessly.
"Are you new here?" inquired Jessica.
"Yes." I looked at the ground and thought about how I wanted to get home. So much, that I could feel the tears welling up inside my eyes, threatening to burst out of me in a never-ending torrent.
Another girl named Angela casually introduced herself to me and was trying to be nice, but I didn't want it. Her kind words went into me like poison and reminded me that I was alone in a new world, with no anchor to hold onto that would prevent the seas of despair from sweeping me away in a torrent.
Then we went to lunch. It was raining outside. I looked all around the room.
My breath caught in my chest. I gasped and I tapped Angela on the shoulder, but I couldn't speak. "Who—who is that?" I pointed at the boy whose demigodlike beauty seemed to radiate forth from his pale face to my eyes, almost blinding me with its incandescent glory.
"That's Edward Cullen. He doesn't have a girlfriend because he's too gorgeous."
His eyes were the purest topaz color, like the bright liquid gold of a summer's day. He was carrying a tray of food, but he didn't eat anything off of it.
"Who are all those people around him?" I breathed. They were gorgeous too, but not a gorgeous as Edward.
"They're his family. There's Jasper, and Rosalie, and Alice, and Emmett. They go out with each other. Jasper's with Alice and Rosalie's with Emmett."
But then, I was unable to pay attention to anything she was saying, because Edward was looking right at me, with firey passion in the deep pits of his topaz eyes.
I stood deathly still in my place while he stared at me. My hand fled to my heart because I was afraid it had stopped beating, transfixed by his unearthly beauty. And then he was walking toward me with determination in his statuesque, stunning pace. I had to clasp my hand over my trembling mouth for the desire to burst into impassioned, intoxicated laughter.
"Hello," whispered Edward Cullen. "Do you want to sit with me?"
"Yes…I do…I so do!"
"Then come with me." He led me to a table apart from the rest so we could be alone. "I am entranced by you," he said. "You captivate me so much that I cannot describe it in mortal words."
I had no idea what to say. The sun came out and spread its golden rays all over the surface of our table, bathing Edward in an incandescent light that cut through the darkness in my mind.
Rays of consternation made themselves painfully visible on his perfect visage.
"But I cannot be with you," said Edward.
"Why not?" I gasped.
"Because…no. I cannot say it. I must leave. We must not see each other again."
And so a raincloud spread its slimy tendrils across me again when he got up from his seat and walked away.
Chapter 2
The world was closing in on me and trapping me inside a tiny pocket of rainclouds and misery.
