Chapter 1-Beginning

"Why? Why do I have to start another school?" Alythorn thought. "I hate this, four years in high school then moving some place else after hiding out to go to "college"? Why don't they just let me live normally? I just want to travel the world forever."

Alythorn walked through the rain and into the front doors of the school. She was told by her aunt, Betty, that she was now going to Forks High in Washington. She really didn't want to go but she had to. Just to keep her occupied. She walked into the office and got her schedule. At least she was a junior this year. All day she walked around finding her classes and keeping to herself. She could feel everyone's eyes on her. She hated that feeling. The feeling of being watched and dissected like a frog.

When the bell rung for lunch she decided to skip and went out to the field. A nice tree was watching for her so she sat under it. Even though it was too cool to be outside, she couldn't feel it. She looked up at the sky and thanked the skies that it was not sunny. If so, she would have never come. It looked cloudy and rainy. The skies looked gray and disfigured. She was in her own world when the bell rung. She walked inside to her class.

"Biology. Hmm, where is that classroom?" She found her classroom and walked in. It grew silent like a graveyard, they were watching again.

"Hello? Do you need help?" A man called from behind his desk.

"Yes um, I'm Alythorn. Alythorn Bayou." She held out her enrollment form. She heard a breath from the back of the classroom.

Edward watched Alythorn with shock. He could not believe his eyes. "Where did she come from?" He thought. 'Why is she here? I thought…" He couldn't stop starring. Alythorn had shoulder length brunette hair and looked to be about 5'9. Her lips were small but noticeable. She had on dark blue jeans, red boots that looked beat up, a t-shirt with a red vest and a leather jacket. She had dark skin that looked smooth and unbreakable. Her eyes were golden.

Alythorn looked at the boy who just gasped. Her eyes locked onto him. His skin was pale and looked smooth also. His lips were full on his strong jaw line. He had a straight nose and high cheekbones. His hair was this unusual shade of brownish kind of bronze color. His body is slender but it's easy to tell that he was muscular. His eyes were what caught her the most. They were golden, like hers.

"Um, Edward? Do you happen to know Miss Bayou?" The man said after an awkward moment.

"No," Alythorn felt tensing in her body. Edward's voice was smooth and also seductive. Just like hers. Was he really….

"Oh, I just thought so. You two are looking at one another like you haven't seen each other in years. Well Miss. Bayou, take a seat anywhere. I'm Mr. Banner."

Alythorn sat in the far corner to hide from the stares. But she felt him watching her the most.
