Chapter 1 – The Meeting
SPOV
So I have been in Forks for a whole 2 weeks and lets just say nothing ever happens here. The worse part is having to go to normal High School which I start today. I am so dreading this. I jump into my new shiny mustang (which I conjured) and head for school. Ugh.
I pull up and park next to this old rusty chevy, I get out just as its driver does. She seems clueless about this place so she must be new. Good I will talk to her then.
"Hey, I'm Sky Nightingale. I'm new here too" I tell her. She smiles, "Bella Swan. Is it that noticeable?"
I shrug "I notice a lot of things. So to me yes."
We walked to the Office together to get our class schedules. "What do you know we have the same classes" I tell joke. Yea thanks to me.
"At least now I will know someone, Come on I don't want to be late on my first day" she said grabbing my arm.
So we went to English, huh this should be fun.
Lets just say class was oh so dull as what every other one til now. Its lunch and thank the goddess because I could not deal with anymore teachers right now.
Well me and Bella made this new friend, Jessica. I don't really care for her but Bella seems to like her so she is okay. I have learned I really like Bella, we have a lot in common. I was just about to ask her if she wanted to come to my house later when they walked in.
"Hey Jessica, who are they?" I asked her. Bella turned to look just when Jessica did.
"Oh that would be the Cullens. Dr. and Mrs. Cullen's foster kids. They moved here last year from Alaska or something" she shared.
"they pretty much stay to themselves" Angela added.
"Yes because they are all together together. That Blonde girl is Rosalie, she is with that big guy Emmett. And the little black haired girl is Alice and she is with the blond guy Jasper who looks like he is in pain all the time. Its so gross"
"Jessica!" Angela chastised.
"Well I mean they live together" she defended. Thats when he walked in with his god like face and some guy with him.
"Who is he?" I asked.
"Oh that's Edward Cullen and he real brother, Jack. Totally gorgeous but don't even bother they don't date. Its like no one here is good enough for them. Like I care" Jess vented.
Huh I wonder when they turned her down. I could see Bella thinking the same thing. I turned to look at him once more to see him staring at me. When our eyes met something sparked inside me. I needed to be closer to him, Edward that is.
The bell rang and me and Bella went our separate ways. This was the only time we didn't have class together. She has gym when I have bio and vice versa. When I walked in I saw him, Edward. And of course the only seat available was the one next to him.
"Ah, you must be Ms. Nightingale" asked the teacher.
I smiled, "yes"
"Well take the seat next to Mr. Cullen"
And so I did. But the moment I sat down I felt something change. And electric current was running between us. I took a chance and looked up at him, he was staring at me.
"Hey, I'm Sky" I introduced myself.
"Hello, I'm Edward Cullen. How are you liking Forks?" he asked.
"huh well its a lot different than where I am from. But its growing on me."
"Where are you from?" he asked. Huh wonder why he cares?
"Italy" I told him "Venice actually. My family has lived there since the dark ages."
He laughed at that. And that would be how the rest of the day went since we had the last two classes together. We just talked to one another. It was really nice but I could tell something was bothering him. Something he would not voice.
When the day was over I waited by Bella's truck for her. When she finally showed I saw she was talking to Jack, Edwards brother. She smiled at me when she walked up, "You didnt have to wait for me."
"I know but I wanted to see if you wanted to hangout" I told her.
"Yeah, sure. You can come to my place" she answered, I nodded as I got into my car planning to follow her.
Like most places around here the High School is right off the highway, so getting to her house took no time at all.
I'm honestly not sure what it is about Bella that I feel like we need to be friends. Normally I keep my distance from mortals. Being a witch with a super long life time, tends to weird people out, and moving like I will have to makes keeping friends hard but with her I just need to be her friend. I feel like our lives are connected.

I saw Jack talking to Bella Swan, the girl who is friends with my Sky. Wait what did I just call her?
"Edward, something on your mind?" Jack asked me.
"No"
"you cant lie to be, you know that. Its that girl isnt it? Sky nightingale?"
"Yes" I admitted "I'm drawn to her, but its not just her its her blood Jack. I have never wanted a humans blood so much."
"I know the feeling" he muttered. I looked at him quizzically, "what do you mean?"
"That I know the feeling. The other new girl, Bella Swan. Its like that for me with her. I cant be away from her, just the distance now is killing me."
"We should talk to Carlisle about all this" I offered, and he nodded his agreement.
