I was playing on the piano early this morning when I saw Alice trudge down the stairs in her pajamas looking mortified, her hair a mess. I opened my mouth to comment but she shot me a warning glance. I closed my mouth and heard her shrill pixie like voice in my head Edward; I can't stand that little girlfriend of yours. She forced herself in the other night to have a sleepover with me. I chuckled and Alice glared at me. Alice was referring to my girlfriend I'd had for about 3 months. Jessica Stanley. She was persistent. She was also very irritating. I suppose this makes for horrible girlfriend material, but once a girl mustered up the courage to 'Ask me to the movies some time' my family got very excited.

I was the only one of them who didn't have a mate. My little pixie of a sister Alice was matched with Jasper. Rosalie the vain blond was matched with the extremely large Emmet and my adoptive parents Esme and Carlisle were paired as well. In a house full of perfectly matched vampires I was the odd one out. So they had insisted I give Jessica a chance.

I reluctantly asked her to be my girlfriend when Esme started pestering me. I didn't really like her all that much. What she said aloud did not match the vile and cruel words in her mind. Mind reading was my special gift I attained when I became a vampire. Alice had been given the gift of seeing the future and Jasper was an empath who could feel and manipulate people's feelings. Those were the only gifts in our family unless you counted Carlisle's control over his bloodlust. He was a doctor at a hospital, blood surrounded him everyday and he barely even flinched at the sight and smell of it. Though he had been a vampire longer than any of us ever had.

I restarted the song I had been playing on the piano barely aware of the movements my fingers made. I heard Jessica wakeup upstairs and the music stopped for a second then picked-up again. I heard her moving around upstairs. She was contemplating what to wear. She had brought over a weeks worth of clothes. Sometimes she really reminded me vaguely of Alice.

She bustled around quickly and got in the shower. It really bothered me when she stayed over here. First off, she would be all over me, second she would use the shower like she owned it and thirdly Alice would be at my throat for daring to let her stay over. Alice was upstairs changing by the time Jessica came downstairs. Jessica flounced down the stairs and sat down next to me on the piano bench. I barely acknowledged her presence. However when she leaned her head into the crook of my neck my fingers slammed down hard on the piano leaving little dents in the keys which I cleaned off at vampire speed before she could see.

I never told Jessica about my vampire family. It just didn't seem right to tell her. First off, she had the biggest mouth Forks High had ever been graced with. "Eddie!" Well maybe graced wasn't the best word for it. I sighed loudly and heard a certain large vampire chuckle upstairs. I turned to face her at human speed and in an annoyed voice said "Yes Jessica?" She dismissed my tone and said in a supposedly loving voice "I love you" I groaned internally, I hated when she would say that. It would always remind me that I was far from loving her. Then I would have to discreetly change the subject before she could pout and whine about me not returning the comment.

Thankfully Jasper sensed my remorse and was in the room like a shot before she could open her petite little mouth "Edward would Jessica like breakfast now? Esme's made some scrambled eggs and toast" I felt relief and thankfulness wash over me. I heard Jasper's slightly southern twang in my head No problem. I smiled at Jasper and Jessica stood up "I'll be back soon baby" She landed a swift kiss on my cheek and I shuddered once she was out of the room.

Emmet was still laughing upstairs but at Jessica's last words he had doubled over in hysterics. I snarled and I heard his thoughts Calm Edward, I'm just having a little fun. I snarled yet again and just heard more chuckling and thoughts basically telling me I was overreacting. I walked into the kitchen after about 5 minutes of hearing Jessica's voice from a distance and decided that if I wanted to satisfy my family I should at least be there while she ate. That was all I would allow myself to do. My behavior was pitiful. I should just break it off with her.

I walked in on her eating a bowl of cereal and she didn't notice my presence until I slid into the seat across from her. She swallowed what was in her mouth and grinned at me "Hey Eddie" I flinched mentally. I hated that nickname. I merely smiled at her as apposed to having to say something intelligent. I heard Alice walking down the stairs and rejoiced as she was beside Jessica in an instant asking her if she wanted a ride to school "Hey Jess do you want me to give you a lift to school today?" And drive you off a cliff. I chuckled and Jessica shot me a look of confusion. Alice merely laughed internally and plastered a fake grin on her impish face. Jess smiled at her but shook her head "No Edward promised he'd drive me to school" My face fell, I promised what now?

I was about to express myself out loud but Alice shot me a look that told me she saw what would happen if I said no to Jess. It wouldn't be pretty. Alice let me into her thoughts and I saw Jess actually stomp her foot, wow. She had stormed out the door declaring she would walk to school. Then she came back in less than a minute later crying saying how she was wrong and she'd take the ride from Alice. Alice looked smug by the time it was over but I looked even more smug because if I said I wouldn't drive her then Alice would be stuck with her. Today was the first day of school though so I knew that right before she left with Alice she would complain that we should arrive together for the starting of the new school year or something along the lines of that.

I'd likely give-in as to not seem like the deadbeat boyfriend. Then we'd drive to school and she'd be happy. Why is it that whenever she's happy I'm miserable? This wasn't how relationships worked out in my day. Listen to me sounding all elderly and such. I'd have to watch that. So I just nodded mutely and glanced at the clock like I didn't know the time "It's 8 o'clock, we should get going." Jess nodded and hurried into the living room to get her things.

I put her dishes in the dishwasher and wished that for once she'd do that herself. When I got into the living room Jess was gone. I looked frantically for her downstairs hoping to dear god that she had spotted someone she'd rather be with and ran. But as I paced around the living room I saw her shoes at the door and sighed. I guess it was just too good to be true. She came down the stairs and threw herself at me hanging herself from my neck.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had driven Jessica to school while she had driven me up the wall. I was sitting in biology class waiting for the teacher to arrive when a girl walked into the classroom. She was new, I could tell. Here everyone knew each other. A new girl would definitely be noticed. She had pale alabaster skin and brown hair with even more brown eyes. Her eyes were a deep chocolate brown, they were very nice looking. Although they had nothing on my family's golden eyes they were quite alluring. The fan that was currently on blew her scent towards me. I stiffened. That scent…

BWAHAHAHA. How evil am I? I'm INCREDIBLY EVIL. Anywhoo. It's my first fanfiction. So be brutal, but not too brutal x]

And keep in mind that I am only 13 :D
