Chapter 1 - Green & Topaz Eyes

EDWARD

I pulled on my dark jeans and fit blue polo. I tied on my black converse and headed downstairs to the kitchen.

"Good Morning, Edward." My mother Elizabeth, greeted.

I kissed her cheek and replied, "Good Morning, Mom"

I sat down at the table and bit my toast. "Are you excited to start your new school?" I didn't want to have this conversation so I stood up still chewing my toast. "Hmm, yeshm" I collected my school books.

"Edward! Eat and then talk" Elizabeth scolded me. I gulped the food down with a glass of orange juice and nodded. I opened the door, slung my bag over my shoulder and walked out the door.

"Bye mom! See you later. Love you!" I closed the door when I heard her chuckling. I pulled up my hood when it started to rain. Great I thought. Go back to California! The little voice in my head nagged. I jumped into my silver Volvo and thought about my past year.

Edward Sr. and Gabrielle got married. Their honeymoon without... me. Gabriella and Dad traveling for her job. I stayed home….alone.

I decided they should try living without a burden at home. I moved to mom's house in a small little town called Forks and now, I am driving to my new high school.

It wasn't hard to find the school. I just followed the main road until I saw a sign that said 'FORKS HIGH, LEFT' Pretty simple. I was glad I came early because I didn't want to be the person with their nose stuck inside papers.

I debated with myself as I cut off the engine. Should I go out into the cold rain? Or stay inside my warm Volvo? I sighed as I heard my mother's stern voice pop into my head. 'If you do not get your butt into that school mister, then I will drag you in with my nightgown on.'

I shuddered and shook my head. and then stepped outside into the cold rain. Throwing my bag onto my back, I ran to the front office to collect my papers. I walked into the office I had not expected. There were two cushioned seats in red and beige carpeting.

A front desk, then a hallway behind the front desk. I took a deep breath and walked up to the woman with shoulder-length blonde hair. About late 20's.

"Hello. My name is Edward Mason and I'm a new student here." The woman looked up and smiled warmly. She looked a bit flustered about my presence. I nodded when she gave me my papers and explained my classes, the best route to take and the teachers.

"The whole town's been waiting for the arrival of the town's mayor's son! If you have any questions, come and ask me!" The woman exclaimed. I grimaced but kept the smile on my face. The whole town has been waiting for the mayor's son. Me. Edward Mason.

"Thank you." I quickly replied and ran out to the under covered area. I memorized the map and noticed that more students had arrived. I began walking around the school. It was not very surprising. The plants were a healthy green.

Alien planet. Probably from all the rain I thought. My short walk quickly ended when I ended back at the parking lot. By now, there were many students chatting, gossiping and laughing. Everyone was wearing thick sweaters and parkas.

I was taken out of my observation of the school when my cell phone rang.

The ID flashed 'MOM' I answered it quickly. "Mom?" I could hear a bit of rustling of papers in the background. "Hello, sweetie. How's school going so far?" I rolled my eyes. "Mom, I didn't even start school yet." She sighed. "Sorry Ed. Anyway, I just called you to tell you that I am staying a bit late at the town hall." I backed away from the staring students "Umm, okay sure mom."

Maybe I should try to make dinner. I began to think of easy dinner recipes from the cooking channel. "Okay see you later tonight Hun!" She said lovingly. "Love you." I replied and I hung up the phone. As slipped it in my pocket, I saw a beautiful girl come out of a sleek black Toyota RAV4.

She looked up and into my eyes as I looked into hers. Those topaz eyes were simply enchanting compared to my boring green eyes.

The pools of topaz were so beautiful that I could not get myself to look away. By then, four people came out of the passenger seats. One tall and muscular, the other a tall but lean blonde haired man. Following them, a long-legged blonde haired woman and a petite spiky-haired woman.

The tall and muscular person nudged the brown wavy haired woman and broke off our gaze. They seemed to have a silent conversation as the quartet walked into school. She glanced at me one more time and then caught up with the others. The bell rang and I took a deep breath, for the second time this morning.

I began walking past students and some lockers when a male teacher came up to me,

"Hello new face! Where you heading'?" the jolly teacher asked.

I turned to face him smiled, and said, "I'm going to my new English class." He smiled happily and replied,

"Ah! My name is Mr. Gallo and you are coming to my classroom! What's your name son?" He made a hand movement pointing to the hallway on the right.

We started to walk, "Edward Mason, sir." I said sheepishly. He abruptly paused mid-step and faced me again. Eying me up and down. I rubbed the back of my neck nervously.

"Edward Mason! The town mayor's son!" He exclaimed. A smile broke out on his face, bordered by a dark brown beard.

I nodded and we ended up in front of a door 'ENGLISH 11' Mr. Gallo opened the door and stepped in and introduced me.

"People! This is Edward Masen. Our new student!" He motioned me to come and I walked in, waved and looked around the room. "You can take the seat behind Ben. Ben, put your hand up." A boy with short brown hair put his hand up.

I quickly avoided the stares by sitting down. The lesson went on while I tuned out thinking about being the mayor's son. What is the big deal about my arrival?

Eventually, the bell ran and the girl beside me turned to face me. "Hey. Edward right? " I smiled then nodded. "What class do you have the next? By the way, I'm Lauren Mallory." we shook hands and started to walk through the hallway,

"I have History next." I replied. Her smile faltered a bit. "I have socials next. It's right beside History in building 3. Come on, let's go together." I nodded again at her friendliness.

"So, how do you like Forks?"

"it's too green and rainy." I sighed. Lauren giggled. I wanted to cover my ears at the sound. We walked to my history class.

"Meet me at lunch okay? You can sit with my friends and I." Lauren said then giggled again.

I smiled slightly, "Thanks for your help."

I walked in and sat down in an empty seat at the back. At least the teacher didn't introduce me I thought. The class droned on about World War I & II. I got asked one question about a certain General.

Once again, the bell rang and a blond with bold blue eyeshadow turned around and offered me to walk me to lunch. I simply nodded while she spoke.

"Do you like totally miss California?" I was about to say yes, but she didn't wait for my answer.

"So, it's hot in California. Totally great weather for tanning. If you don't mind me asking but, do you tan?"

I shook my head, "I'm part albino on my mother's side." She nodded then went on to herself. Finally she noticed that she didn't say her name.

Jessica Stanley. She was a talker. We sat down at a lunch table full of people. Jessica, Mike, Tyler, and some others, which I forgot, were sitting down.

Conversations carried on and some questions were to myself. I was opening my bottled water when I noticed the five familiar people. They were sitting at the table doing nothing except moving the food on their trays around.

I asked Mike Newton. "Hey, who are those five?" He glanced at the direction I was looking at then and leaned down to whisper.

"Their the Cullen family. The muscular one is Emmett Cullen, the blonde haired guy is Jasper Hale, The spiky haired is Alice. They're all adopted by the best doctor here. Dr Esme Cullen." The blonde stood up and threw her tray away. She looked like a model on a catwalk.

"The one who just stood up is Rosalie Hale. She and Jasper are twins." They look a like. Blond hair, tall and lean. I mused. He paused when the brown haired girl looked at us. I recognized her topaz coloured eyes. I quickly looked down at my tray and rubbed the back of my neck nervously.

" Who is the girl who just looked at us?" I asked in a low whisper. Mike broke into a grin.

"That's Bella Swan. She's so stunning but has that great girl-next-door look." I nodded in understanding.

"But she rejects everyone who asks her out to dances or dates." He continued. The other siblings quickly followed Rosalie's actions.

The guys walked so manly, but in a graceful way. I felt a pang of jealously stab my body. I glanced at them through my lashes.

They were so graceful and beautiful. Mike dropped the subject. The bell rang a few minutes after the Cullen's left. I gathered up my books and threw my lunch away.

I walked with Angela Weber to my next class. Biology 11.

BELLA

My siblings and I went to our separate classes. After our 'lunch'. Everyone's mind was full of the son of the mayor. Edward.

'Oh my gosh! I didn't know Edward was this hot! I am definitely going to go out with him' -Jessica 'I am totally Edward's type. 'I am going to date him!'Lauren

'Damn! Edward's friggin' sexy. The way his hair is swayed to the side and how his muscles flex when he lifts his bag and-' –Alexandra. The whole town's been going crazy about him.

I walked into Biology 11 and sat down at my usual back lab table. An unappealing human walked by my desk. Rust and salt reeked from every human. It was disgusting. I read the thoughts of the person who slapped a pile of papers on the desk.

'Okay, breath and calm yourself Raeann. Don't be intimidated by her. She's just a normal person' I snorted. I'm not normal 'what if I'm the evil witch?' I thought. All of a sudden her mind started screaming

'EDWARD! EDWARD! EDWARD'S IN THIS BLOCK!' My head snapped up to his figure, which was coming forward into the classroom with Angela, whose thoughts were always pleasant 'Ah! Bio, I hope we don't get too much, homework tonight. I have tons of work to do.'

I smiled a bit as they walked into the room because at least they weren't about Edward.

My small smile was ripped off, as I smelt it. The sweet honey and rain. Unique. The scent was so strong I braced myself on the table.

He went up to the teacher and the teacher pointed to the empty seat beside me. Every movement of his blew the scent furiously into my nose.

I shoved my books so my side as he sat down. I leaned on the edge of my seat as he sat down on the chair next to me. I wanted to kill him right now and feed on the blood.

I focused on his thoughts. Silence. I froze. Silence? I asked myself. I felt myself gasp. Edward must have heard me because he ran his fingers thought his reddish-bronze hair.

The scent once again flew from his body and into face. My own personal demon.

I stopped breathing and moved my other arm so it was grabbing the edge of the table and stopping myself from lunging at Edward in a matter of mere seconds.

I tightened my grip when I heard a quiet cracking and splitting of wood.

I loosened my hand and out came the corner of the table in the size of my small hand. I began to think of a possible way to destroy the evidence.

I quickly grabbed my over sized purse when I saw a tube of super glue tucked into the front pocket.

'Damn it Alice! She didn't even tell me this was going to happen. Darn Alice, damn it. Stupid future seeing pixie-like sister' I shouted in my head. I glanced at Edward. He had a confused look on his face. I caught him staring at me and he flushed a deep pink then quickly looked away.

The blood in his body flushing into his chiseled face. Filling up his pale face with sweet, sweet, honey scented blo—' The monster pondered.

BELLA! FOCUS YOURSELF!' I snapped at myself.

Why is his blood so tempting? Why can't I hear his thoughts and see into his mind? I sighed internally. Finally the bell rang after a good 10 minutes of me grinding my razor white teeth together, clenching one small fist on my lap, leaning on the very edge of my seat, and squeezing the side of the table.

I was the first one out of that wonderful scented classroom, skipping all my other classes. I ran at vampire speed nearly yanking the car door off the jumping in and listening to Paramore's 'Decode' to distract myself.

Suddenly, I changed the song because it had the word blood. As I waited for my siblings, I could not get my head out of plotting Edward's death.

Go to his house tonight and snap his neck like a twig and then drink his sweet and delectable blood. The little monster in my head nagged, I thought about killing him until Carlisle, Esme, Charlie and Renee's faces popped into my head. My vampire parents and my human parents.

What would they think of me if killed and fed on an innocent boy?

I shuddered.

The last school block passed after a good silent 45 minutes of thinking. I jumped a bit startled when I heard the car doors open suddenly.

'You okay there Bella?' My 'older' sister Rosalie asked me. I nodded then started the car once everyone shut the door. Another thought rushed into my head.

'Hey Bell! Did you like my secret present I packed into your bag? I growled slightly while Rosalie, Emmett and Jasper looked at Alice who was giggling hysterically like a school girl who heard the teacher say 'breast'. Alice, who eventually stopped giggling whispered to the three.

Alice winked dramatically at me. I growled again and sped the car faster. Everyone burst out laughing.

"I see everyone's enjoying the pain of my throat burning I had to endure in bio." I snarled. Rosalie gave me an apologetic smile.

"Relax, sis! Alice just wanted to have some fun!" Jasper reassured me.

"Yeah! I didn't you know had so much vampire self control moody!" Emmett joked. My lips curled over my teeth in deathly growl when I heard 'moody'. Emmett put his hands up in surrender.

'I'm sorry Bell, I didn't realize that you were in pain. I just skipped to the part of my vision that showed when you broke the edge of the lab table.' Alice bowed her head down.

"It's fine Alice. You're forgiven." I sighed. Alice perked up and smiled brightly. Rosalie stiffened. I looked at her in concern.

'Bella?' I nodded slowly. 'Did you say that your throat was burning in class?' I moved my head an inch up.

'Because of Edward?' I moved my head half an inch down. Only Rosalie, Alice and I knew my secret movements to respond to the thoughts.

'So you were thirsty … but your hate the smell of human blood. And your eyes are a deep gold...'

Rosalie continued with her thoughts. We drove up the dirt path leading to the driveway. I parked the car and turned to my siblings.

"Tell Esme and Carlisle I don't know when I'm coming back. I just need to clear my head." I looked up at my siblings.

'Be careful moody.' Emmett's rarely serious thoughts came to me.

'We will Bell' Jasper sent me a wave of calm. I smiled at him. Alice looked very guilty.

'If this is about the glue and –' I cut her off.

"My pixie, it's not because of that." I hugged my sisters then gave the car keys to Rosalie.

I ran into the woods pushing my legs faster and faster not caring where I was headed. I ran from everything and everyone. Including my personal demon. Punishing me for being a disgusting, repulsive bloodsucker monster.

Was he really my demon? Yes. I listened for once to the monster inside me.

Him. Edward Masen is my demon.
