Forks High was nothing special. It looked like all the other ones I've seen over the years. I sighed as Eve pulled her purple BMW into an empty parking space. I watched as she pulled out the keys and put them in her pocket. I scanned the parking lot and noticed our car really stood out besides the shiny silver Volvo a couple of spaces away from us.
In the back seat Rashel pulled her blonde bangs back with a headband. On her face was a look of pure determination. Her perfect brows were furrowed and her lips were scrunched. I laughed and she looked up startled. Oh ho, why did I find that funny? I guess it was my nerves.
If you were in my situation you would understand. I was a freaking bloodsucking vampire and I was about to go to school with humans, who, by the way, were completely irresistible. See?
"Cleo, what are you laughing at?" Rashel questioned and I just shook my head, my own dark red bangs falling into my eyes. It would take too long trying to explain this to her.
"Come on guys, were going to be late." Eve said impatiently. She raised her eyebrow at me and I sighed. Guess we had to get this over with sometime.
I slowly swung open my door and a rush of cool air brought in the scent of nearby pine trees. That wasn't the only thing it brought in.
All three of us froze as we caught the scent of human. The burn in my throat flared and I almost started to gasp. It was so intense; I stopped breathing the moment it happened.
"Eve, Rashel you guys in control?" I asked when the burning began to get bearable.
"Yes." They coursed as I stepped out of the car. I shouldered my bag and shut the door as Rashel and Eve got out of the car.
I examined the humans who had stopped when we'd gotten out. We all looked striking with liquid topaz eyes and ivory skin. I know Eve looked really amazing with her wavy midnight black hair. Her hair was a little shorter than mine, which reached just below my waist. Rashel's was just a little shorter than Eve. We all had long, long hair.
"Let's go before a crowd assembles." I whispered too low for the surrounding humans to hear. My friends followed me to the front office.
Excited as ever, Rashel rushed forward and open the office door before I could get to it. She flounced inside, her head held high. So I walked in like that and so did Eve. We wanted to make an impression, right?
"Mrs. Cope, I called you earlier. You have our Schedules." She looked up startled then looked down immediately.
"Um… Cleo Anderson, right?" I nodded and she looked down at her computer. She glanced back at Eve and Rashel. She pulled out three pieces of paper and handed them to me. One glance down proved that the first one had my name on it; I smiled and whirled around on my heel, leaving.
The door opened before I could get to it. A girl entered with long curly bronze hair and deep chocolate brown eyes. Her skin was as marble white as mine. But, unlike mine her cheeks were slightly flushed. Something was off about her. She was vampire pretty, like my friends and I. But her heart beat. I could hear it thumping in her chest.
She gasped and I kept a perfectly neutral expression. Her smell was off, too. It was a little vampire and slightly human. I furrowed my brow and continued to stare at her. Her eyes gradually got wider.
"So…" I murmured, too low for Mrs. Coped to hear.
"Um… I…" The girl mumbled.
"I'm Cleo Anderson. I'm new here, and so are my friends Eve and Rashel." I pointed to each of them.
"Rennesme Cullen." She smiled and I froze on the inside. Cullen…?
Oh shit. Yes, her hair did look a like Edward's, the Cullen that was in love with the human we were supposed to kill. And those eyes, they looked like the girl's.
Could they have…? No that was impossible; Edward and the human girl can't have babies. But they could.
"Well, we have to go." I excused and escaped out the door.
"Cleo, you okay." I nodded but I wasn't okay. We were supposed to kill the Cullen's a long time ago. They might have known us, I remember Victoria saying one of them was psychic.
So if we met up with one of the others Cullen's, there was going to be hell to pay. And I wasn't sure we could run away this time.
