The Subject

Bella is finally living the life. She falls in love with Edward and his charming nature, it's all a little too perfect. A string of events take place and Bella realises everything is not what it seems...Edward is not who he says he is either.


I walk in to the lecture theatre and spy some familiar faces, I exchange quick greetings before looking around for an empty seat. I find a few available seats at the centre of the room and move towards them.

I take a seat and pull out my stuff from my bag. I hear a tap coming from next to me and I lift my head, meeting the most gorgeous pair of green eyes

"Is this seat free?"

"I...err..." I blink and snap out of my stammer, "Huh?" I mentally face palm myself, way to go Bella!

Said owner of the green eyes, smiles slightly. Fuck, he's gorgeous!

"Is this seat free?" He repeats again, indicating to the seat next to me. I look to the seat and back to him before saying 'Yes', a little too loudly at that

If I've creeped him out, he has a good way of hiding it. He smirks and takes a seat, pulling out his own pen and books.

I take in his copper coloured hair. What an unusual colour, nevertheless it compliments him. He turns his head slightly and meets my gaze. I feel my cheeks flush, embarrassed at having been caught ogling him.

I watch him as he places his right elbow on the desk, leaning his face on his fist. "I'm Edward Cullen and you are?" He smiles softly.

I blink again and gather my thoughts. "Bella!" Cue another face palm. What is it with my voice coming out ten octaves higher than it is?

He smirks, "Just Bella?"

I groan as my face heats up. I shake my head and smile wryly, "Isabella Swan...but you can can call me Bella,"
