Another day, another dollar. More like another day, another hell. It was already torture to hear the thoughts of simple minded teenage kids, let alone having to stay away from the one human I'd actually like to get to know. Yes, Isabella Swan still invaded my thoughts every second of the day. It had been a month since the van incident, and everyday it gets harder to stay away, when all I want to do is beg her for forgiveness and unlock the secrets of her mind. That's what irks me the most, not being able to read her thoughts. Or, better yet, her thoughts about me. Does she hate me? Does she want me to talk to her again? These were the thoughts going through my head as I quietly watched Bella through the thoughts of Jessica Stanley. Not the happiest place to be, but it was my best option. Bella was currently picking apart the vile substance humans call food. This didn't surprise me, as if I were human again, I'd like to think I wouldn't find it very appetizing either. But something was off about her eyes. Her eyes were the closest thing I could get to her mind, so I've tried to learn how to read them. Usually content and calm, her eyes were now unattached and bored. Suddenly, her phone rang, and she glanced briefly at it before returning to her task of tearing apart her food.

"Aren't you gonna answer it?" Jessica said, probably irritated with the constant ringing. "At least reject the call".

"What does the contact name say?" Bella said, completely cool with the annoying buzzing of her phone.

"Um.. it says DO NOT ANSWER."

"So am I going to answer it?"

"No?"

"Exactly."

The whole exchange was entertaining to watch, but it didn't stop me from wondering who was calling.

We were in Biology now, the only class I share with Bella. Even though it was always hard to be in this class, today was particularly difficult. Her scent didn't bother me as much anymore, but the curiosity almost gets the best of me some days. Today was one of those days. Bella's phone was blowing up with what I presumed to be texts, and I wouldn't be surprised if the phone would literally blow up. The teacher, Mr. Banner, constantly threw her impatient looks, and was on the verge of giving her detention. Finally, Bella asked to be excused, and went out in the hall for privacy. Well, as much privacy as you could get with me within 50 feet. Silencing the thoughts of others, I focused on her phone call.

**BELLA ****ISAAC

**"What do you want? You've called so many times, I'm surprised I don't have detention yet. I was in class, idiot"

**** "Well, I don't know your schedule, and it doesn't help that I don't know how to tell the time difference."

** " Well, Isaac, if all you wanted was a lesson in time zones, goodbye. I have to get back before Mr. Banner gets annoyed."

**** " Wait! I just wanted to ask you to tell Charlie that I'm coming to visit for a few days. And that I love you. Maybe I'll bring a few secrets with me. Bye Bellarina."

The male hung up the phone unexpectedly, and all I could think was; who was Isaac, why did Bella seem so angry with him, and what secrets did he plan to bring?
