Until Forever Ends
Dear Lover
A/N: YOU DO NOT HAVE TO READ ALL OF THIS, IF YOU WANT; YOU CAN START AT "A few weeks Later..."
This pretty much is just trying to explain the introduction of Edward and Bella.
Edward's POV:
Edward Cullen jumped in his fancy sports car, that was occupied by Alice (who was in the passenger seat), Jasper on the right in the back, Emmett on the left, and Rosalie squished in between them. Luckily, she didn't have to breath- or she would've suffocated in between the two towering men. Edward chuckled at the repulsively mean things she was thinking about them. The ride to school was silent, other than Alice with her usual chatter. Edward didn't have to read their minds to know that they were all jaded of her talk about how fashion dumb their 'peers' were, and how she just hated being surrounded by them. It looked like she didn't need any contribution to keep her conversation going.
"Show time" Rose sneered as they all slid gracefully out of the car. They mumbled unenthusiastically in reply. Like every other day, Alice and Jasper would walk toward their own direction, as would Emmett and Rosalie. That left Edward all lonesome to sit on a bench, and distastefully munch on an apple and read a book to fit in. Just when he had read the same line for the third time, obviously not paying any attention at all (how could he when he's surrounded by a bunch of minds that won't stop babbling?), he caught a whiff of the most delicious, sweetest, blood he's ever smelled in his entire existence. Instinctively, his throat burned with thirst and his head snapped up looking for the unknown source.
His eyes narrowed in on a girl with long, straight brown hair. Her skin was soft looking and ivory colored. That was all he could see, being as she just walked past him quiet swiftly. He swallowed hard to try and wash down that scorching sensation. Of course, it didn't work. He cleared my mind of every memory that treacherous scent had, which seemed to work at a satisfied level. He bent his head back to his book and shut out all of the voices inside him (well, at least muting them a little) and concentrated very much to the words. Sinking each one into his brain.
The bell rang at exactly 7:30 and the voices around him only got louder as if trying to top each other in the conclusion of their conversations. Forgetting the brunette completely (almost), he started for his first class. Biology II. Like always, he was first to enter while everyone else lingered to chat with their friends a little more. Mr. Banner welcomed him with a smile and continued to organize the piled papers on his desk. Slowly everyone walked in, 3 by 3. In about 5 minutes everyone was seated and still the mumbling of voices sustained. When class begin he started to drift to everyone's thoughts- just because he could. There was nothing new he could learn from this class, what was the point in taking notes, and actually paying attention when he would already ace any upcoming tests?
Suddenly, there it was- the ugly, attracting, irresistible smell. The sweet, mouth-watering, throat-burning smell. It took all of his self control to not attack this stranger...and it's witnesses.
Bella's POV:
She walked into the class room she was looking for, for nearly 20 minutes. Everyone turned to look at her. Even the most beautiful person she had ever laid eyes on... though... there was another girl who looked equally stunning, she wondered if they are related. She was introduced, and sat next to this impossibly good looking boy. His eyes were burning holes in her, and she tried to avoid any eye contact.
That class was entirely too much! Well, the ravishing man next to her was, anyway. Luckily class had ended soon enough for her and she darted out of there. But, not so fast that the strange boy couldn't stop her. "Hey... I'm Edward, can I walk you to your next class?"
Edward's POV:
It could be so easy to lead her some where and tear her up, she has no idea where any classes are. He introduced himself smoothly, persuasively even. That made her blush intensely, which only helped his craving as he could see the blood, almost taste it, through her thin, pale skin. She contemplated her answer, and then he realized- he could not hear her... not inside his head like he should. He panicked, but it did not show on his expression. Searching her any hint of her mind, and finding none. Concern reached him and he looked to his left, still he could hear everyone else. "I er- I am – uh... my name's Bella. Yeah... that would be- be cool, cause I don't know where anything is" she chuckled nervously. It pulled him out of his own thoughts. "What class is it?" he asked as if he'd been paying attention to her the entire time.
That night:
Of course he couldn't kill her. No, he wouldn't wash away his decades of practice for this one human. But still he was bothered by this inability to read her mind.
A few weeks later...
Bella's POV:
She slid into her beaten red Chevy and was on her way to La Push, where her best friend Jacob resided. Charlie was inside watching a baseball game and didn't mind at all that she was going- in fact, he wanted her to go. She arrived to see Jay leaning in the door frame and his famous grin slapped on his face. She pulled the keys out and slammed the car door shut. "How did you know I was coming?" she smiled and hugged him. He snorted. "Bella, honey, I can hear your car at least 20 miles from here that thing is so loud!" He howled a laugh and she joined with him. They walked to his garage, with Jacob's arm hung around her shoulders. She shifted uncomfortably. When they reached the garage, it was silent.
"Hey, wanna go down to the beach? I bet it looks beautiful!" Bella suggested, at least to get away from this crowded room. "I bet it's not as beautiful as you." Jacob smiled. He was always blunt about his flirting with her, he didn't even care. She blushed a little in reply with a sheepish smile. "Let's go" he said quietly. They headed for the beach and when they arrived, sat down on the soft sand. "So what have you been up to? Like Forks yet?" He asked with an enthusiastic smile. "Yeaah, I guess." she sounded not so sure.
Determined to make this a fun evening she thought of a new subject. "Oh! Billy told me that you - uhm... you know.." she smiled wide. He gave her a confused look. "Er...what?" he finally asked. "That you're now a...a..." "ah! Werewolf!" he understood where she was going now. For some reason she just still couldn't wrap her head around the myth that was true. "Yeah. About time, too!" He laughed. She chuckled. "How's that working for ya'?" "It's fun actually, though...I really hate having my mind rea-" his face took a blank as he stared straight ahead. Bella followed his eyes and saw the beautiful sunset. Which reminded her... "well, I have to go. Charlie can't cook worth anything" She laughed. "Really? Bummer, we were just warming up!" He smiled. She put her hand on his shoulder and pulled back quickly. "Damn! You're already warm enough!" She joked and they headed back to her truck.
"Well, I'll see you tomorrow then?" He asked knowing the answer already. She nodded and gave him a hug. He enveloped his arms around her waist and pulled her closely. She wrapped her arms around his neck and buried her face in his chest. She liked the warmth that radiated from him. Nothing like Edward, who'd she become close friends with now. "Drive safe, Bells." He whispered and reluctantly let go of her and she climbed into her car. "Bye, Jake. See you tomorrow!" She waved through her open window. He waved back as the truck pulled away.
A/N: I'm working on Chapter One as we...er... as you're reading this! Don't worry, a plot is coming!
