I walked into the cafeteria, and saw him again. He was staring at me, with that frustrated look as before. I just didn't get him. This boy who didn't even know me, hated me without even knowing me. I hadn't done anything to him. I hadn't even talked to him. In case you couldn't already tell, I was still mad about. I went to go sit down with Jessica a girl who was in my trig and English class. I took another glance at his table. He was hunched over his food. Glaring at me. I looked away.
I wanted to go up to him and demand what his problem was but I didn't have the guts. I mean what if it was just some big misunderstanding and I made a big deal out of it and he thought I was a complete moron. But what if he really did hate me? But what if he didn't. I had to go talk to him…It was the only way to know what was really going on.
I got up from the table quietly, no need for an audience. I walked slowly trying to show that I was confident but kind of hiding at the same time. I made the mistake of looking back. It felt like I had crossed some invisible line. The line that separated us from… them. I was a few feet away. I started to panic what was I going to say? I noticed the cafeteria was getting quiet.
" What the heck does she think she's doing?!!" Jessica whispered. That's when Edward Spun around. I froze I didn't know what to do.
" um..can I…um talk to you…. Edward," I said. My voice sounded shaky.
He looked like I had just asked him to part the red sea. His facial expression was twisted, confused, and angry. He didn't respond. We stared at each other for a while. I looked into his eyes. They were black, and bleak, it scared me. He shoved his chair out of the way, making a scraping sound on the cafeteria floor. The whole room was silent. He walked towards the hallway. I just stood there.
" Well are you coming?" He asked his tone harsh. I scowled but nodded. If he wanted to play hardball bring it on. When we had both made it into the hallway he turned to me.
" What..do..you..want," He asked.
" What do I want!! I sat in biology for 2 hours yesterday watching you glare at me, thinking who knows what! You looked at me like..like..like I was some kind of monster or something. Most people like to be treated like human beings, and if your feel like your to high above everyone else to do that then find yourself anther lab partner!"
" Gladly" He said. I couldn't believe him. He walked into the cafeteria and stormed out the parking lot doors. Faster than anything I'd ever seen.
