Ok so this chapter is kind of sad. And it talks a little about Edwards past. Tell me what you think!
What did I do to make me have to be punished like this? To be humiliated? I hate this. I took one more deep breath before I walked into the dance room. as soon as I looked up I stopped dead in my tracks and I think I stopped breathing as well. Standing at one of the bars attached to the wall was the most amazingly beautiful girl I have ever laid eyes on. She had long thick dark brown hair that held a gentle curl, and a gorgeous heart shaped face that held big brown eyes and a beautiful smile. I looked away when she glanced over my way, hoping she didn't catch me staring. I started to walk inside the room when a lady in the corner yelled at me.
"no shoes on the dance floor!" I jumped back and looked down seeing my new tennishoes and wondering why they wouldn't be aloud on the floor. confused I bent down and took my shoes off. I heard a musical laugh and looked back and saw the beautiful girl from before. she walked over to me and I felt myself blush slightly.
"don't worry about her. She just really loves this floor." she laughed looking over at the lady who had yelled at me. "im Bella, im an aid for this class. And you are?" she said giving me a genuinely interested smile. it took me a second to get my thoughts straight before I was able to speak.
"Im Edward." I said shyly causing her to laugh. I looked up and blushed when our eyes meet. god she was beautiful.
"well its nice to meet you Edward. come on, I will show you where you can put your things." I nodded and followed her over to a bunch of cubbies, and put my shoes and backpack inside one. After that the bell rang and the teacher told everyone to sit down, and to my surprise bella sat down next to me! I sat there trying to contain the smile on my face. The teacher walked in front of the class and looked at everyone.
"hello. I am Mrs. Taylor. There are a few things you need to know about this class. First," she looked right at me before continuing. "no shoes on the dance floor." everyone turned to look at me and I looked down to hide my blush. When I looked back up everyones attention was back on the teacher and I sighed in relief. I heard a small chuckle and looked over to see bella looking at me with a smile.
"what?" I asked after giving her a small smile of my own. She shook her head and looked back up at Mrs. Taylor.
"now in this class we have an amazing aid. So if you every need anything you can either come to me, or bella. Bella would you come here please?" she asked and bella stood up and walked up to her. "are your jeans really tight?" she asked with a smirk. Bella looked down.
"kind of. I could go change real quick if you want?" she said with no fear at all. if it was me I would be so scared to be talking to this woman!
"great! Hurry up please." Mrs. Taylor said with a smile. bella ran out of the room and was back in a minute wearing really short shorts. "ok class, you are no where near the level bella is, but by the end of the year you should be able to do the things bella will show you now." She looked over at bella and gave a smile. "the splits," bella slide down into the splits without hesitation. "a pirouette," bella again did what I was guessing to be a pirouette, then did all the other things Mrs. Taylor called out. The whole time I watched in amazement. "thank you Isabella," bella grimaced at that. "you can go change now." Bella nodded and left the room. when she came back the bell rang. I stood up and grabbed my bag but before I could leave I felt a hand on my shoulder a turned to see bella standing there.
"hey, I was wondering," she began, but stopped and took a breath. "do you have a girlfriend?" my eyes widened.
"um, no. why?" I asked after my shock had worn off. She smiled down at me.
"because I just want you to know, I think you are really cute." She smiled and leaned down and placed a kiss on my cheek, then walked away. I touched my cheek that now felt like it was on fire and smiled. So maybe dance wont be so bad after all. smiling I walked towards my next class. When I walked in I looked around and sat in one of the empty desks. I heard a laugh a looked back to see the same two girls from this morning. The small one stood up and walked over to me sitting backwards in the desk in front of mine.
"hello." She said is a sickly sweet voice. I gave a half wave and for some reason she laughed. "you are really shy huh?" she asked with a smile that looked really fake.
"um, I guess?" I murmured. She seemed like the kind of kids who used to tease me at my old school, and I hoped that she wasn't going to try and start something.
"so why are you here?" she asked me, taking me by surprise. I stared at her for a few seconds.
"um, I just moved her from Chicago?" I said timidly. She smirked and looked back at her friend.
"yeah but why did you move here?" I gulped and looked around the room.
"why do you want to know?" I asked trying to keep my anger in check. She smiled an evil smile.
"oh I think I already know." she said glancing back at her friend who began laughing hysterically.
"How would you know? And if you know, why would you think its funny?" I asked taking a few deep breaths.
"well I think the fact the your mother couldn't take care of you is kind of funny." She said with a laugh. I started seeing red and also felt my eyes begin to water. I grabbed my stuff and ran out the door and to the bathroom and pulled out my phone.
"mom?" I asked as a traitor tear rolled down my face.
"sweetie whats wrong?" she asked when she heard the sadness in my voice.
"will come pick me up please?" I asked quietly.
"of course. I will be right there honey. What happened?" she asked and I could hear her shuffling around.
"I just need to come home. I will tell you later." I said as another tear fell.
"ok honey, I will be right there. I love you sweetie." She said softly.
"love you too mom." I hung up the phone, wiped my eyes and began walking towards the office when I saw bella. She looked up and smiled at me until she saw my expression, then she rushed over to me.
"whats wrong?" she asked with real curiosity and concern. I shook my head and looked away.
"nothing." I tried to walk away but she grabbed my shoulder.
"hey! Whats wrong? you look so depressed! I don't like it." She said in a sad voice.
"nothing. I just need to go home. Excuse me." I tried again to go around her but she stopped me again.
"Edward talk to me. please." She looked at me with such concern I couldn't stop the words from falling out of my mouth.
"I was adopted a year ago. My father died when I was little, and my mother became very sick and couldn't look after me anymore. She died a little more than a year ago. Some girls found out, I have no idea how but they did, and laughed in my face about it. I just need to leave. I cant handle this right now. Im still trying to get through the thought of never seeing my mother again! I don't need a couple of girls who don't even know me or the real situation teasing me! now please move!" bella stood there with a sad expression, that also seemed a little hurt, but she let me walk by. After taking a few steps I felt like an ass for yelling at her, but when I turned around to apologize, she was gone. I sighed and walked to the office trying to hold back my tears. I walked inside and saw my adoptive mom and went to here right away. she gave me a small smile and we walked out to the car.
"you want to talk about it?" she asked after a few minutes of silence. I shook my head and leaned it against the window. When we got home Esme turned to me and handed me a letter.
"whats this?" I asked looking down at the paper in my hands.
"your mother wrote that for you, she wanted you to have it on your first day of high school." With out saying another word I ran upstairs and locked my door, then went to my bed to read the letter.
Dear Edward,
If you are reading this I am so terribly sorry, because it means I am no longer physically with you. But hey! Its your first day of high school! I am so proud of you baby, and I wish I could be there to see you go off and start your life. But I know you will be amazing. You are so talented, and charming, and bright! I know your father would have been so proud of you as well. I want you to always believe in yourself. Never let anyone bring you down. You know your life, don't let anyone tell you differently. I love you so much baby. Know I will always be with you. And if you ever need me, just think of me and I will be there. Im always in your heart, just as you were always and will always be in mine. Keep making me and your father proud. I know you will. Never stop doing what you love to do, and don't shut people out. I love you. I always have. And I always will.
Love,
Elizabeth Mason
Your mother
I felt the tears the filled my eyes over flow and fall freely down my face. I hated crying because it made me feel weak. But I couldn't help it. I miss my mother so much. She was the person who always made me feel better when I was sad. She picked me up when I fell, and she always made the day brighter. I miss her so much! God why did you take her from me! what did I do? What did she do? I clutched the letter to me chest and laid back on my bed and cried until my eyes were dry and I fell into a deep sleep. That night my dream surprised me. but it somehow made me feel better, and it made me feel ready for the next day. When I woke up, I knew what I had to do, reading my letter one more time, I got up and began to get ready for the day to come.
