Chapter 1- First Impressions
As the bell rang I gathered my things and walked to the cafeteria. I walked as quickly as I could without standing out. It would be strange for me to be in a hurry to get to the cafeteria like I was fighting for a spot in front of the lunch line since I had no intention of eating. But these humans didn't know that yet. They didn't know anything about us, they didn't know we didn't eat, didn't socialize and barely ever spoke except amongst ourselves. I was in a hurry. I was just as relieved to be out of the small classroom as the humans, but for a different reason. I knew that in the crowded cafeteria at a table in an out of the way corner Alice would be waiting. The stress of a new school and the curiosity of the other students was wearing on my nerves, she would help me keep from losing my mind. Also though, I was curious. In my last two classes there had been a quiet girl who had spent almost the entire time staring at me, what was strange about her was not that she was staring but that she was not completely in awe as most of her classmates were when they saw us, she was a bit...unsettled. When I got to the lunchroom I found my family, but only after I was seated next to Alice, across from Bella, did I realize I was situated so that the strange girl could see me clearly. She continued to stare.
"Hey, Edward?" I said, taking my brother's attention from the dark haired beauty at his side. "What is it?" He asked, concern coloring his voice. "No, I'm okay" I said reading his worry. "It's just...who is that girl over there, and why is she staring at me likle that ?" "What girl?" "That one" I said, inclining my head subtly in her direction. "she's really pale and has dark brown hair and dark eyes..."
"Oh, that one...I hear her now" He listened thoughtfully for a moment and then smirked. "What is it?" I demanded, worried about he amusement.. "Well" He replied "Her name is Raine, but I really don't know why she keeps staring like that"
"Liar" I hissed. He simply smiled and turned back to Bella.
I sighed when, after lunch, I walked into my next class and saw the girl, Raine, I reminded myself, sitting toward the back of the class. ]Might as well figure this out. I thought to myself. I took a seat next to her. She shifted uncomfortably beside me. She was nervous, uncomfortable, but she still had trouble averting her eyes from my face. Humans, petty even when faced with danger. "Can I help you?" I demanded, rather irritably. I could easily have calmed her, but I wasn't really in the mood. However, I decided it was rude to scare her. Sometimes being a Southern gentleman is rather tedious. "I'm sorry" I said quietly. "I shouldn't have snapped at you, it's just, you've been giving me strange looks all day. I was wondering if I had done something to offend you." It took all my restraint to stay where I was now that was actually attentive to her as the blush crawled up her cheeks. I could hear her pulse racing, feel her fear, all very bad things for a predator to know about his prey. "I'm sorry" I said again, turning back to the front of the room, returning to my usual, antisocial self. A full two minutes passed before she spoke.
"Listen" she began timidly, "It's not that I have any personal issues with you or anything.."
"But...?" I asked expectantly.
"But..." she hesitated. "Nothing, it's nothing"
"Listen" I said, irritated again. "It's not that I"m frustrated with you or anything ..."
"But...?" She inquired.
"But I am. Just tell me."
"You have an abnormally large nose. There. I said it." She said quickly turning back to face the teacher as she turned cherry red.
Everything's bigger in Texas[/i] I thought sarcastically. "Does my having a big nose bother you?"
"Well... I'm scared of people with big noses"
I couldn't help it, I laughed. For all the reasons she could be afraid of me she chose one I would never have considered.
Now she was embarrassed, and bushing again. She was as bad as Bella had been.
"I'm sorry" I said, containing myself. "I've never heard of anyone being afraid of a nose before"
"I'm not afraid of noses, I'm afraid of the people who have big noses" she mumbled.
"Hmm... smart girl" I mused quietly. Feeling her curiosity I quickly faced the front.
Now I understood why Edward thought it was funny. I bet he and Emmett were cracking up right now.
