He's After Me
Chapter Two
Edward
Bellas Point Of View
I wasn't even planning on leaving for another twenty minutes but that man had fueled my fury. I had even managed to push back his incredibly handsome face to argue back. Who did he think he was? He wasn't even half as bad as Edward though. Edward and I had argued over our future, well mainly my future. He had told me constantly that he wouldn't wreck my 'mortal' life and wouldn't allow me to become the 'monster' that he was. He had even said he'd stay with me even when I was old and wrinkly.
Pffttt. Me? An old woman? Never! I'll even let Jasper bite me if I have to. Okay maybe not.
My rusty truck was just inches away and I froze midstep from a loud slam behind me. Slowly, and regrettably I turned around to face the culprit.
The rude man and another man were storming out of the school building so immediately, on instinct, my stride increased until I was safely inside my truck.
I clutched my Wuthering Heights book to my chest before relaxing slightly in the car chair with a sigh. I had Jake replace the old one with springs bouncing out for a different one that was much more comfy and sleek.
I watched as the two men seemed to be amazed at something before both eyes turned to my truck. At once I sunk further down into the chair until I could only see the tips of their hair sticking up. The one with blonde hair ran a hand through his before his head quickly moved away from my sight. The other one followed after, slowly.
After a couple of minutes of staying ducked down, I tilted my head slightly upwards to see if they were still there.
No, they were gone. But someone worse was there that made me sigh. Edward.
He was leaning against his Volvo looking like the supermodel that he was. I sunk back down and decided to read for a bit because I'd rather not have him follow me home.
Just as I was about to open my book, my phone vibrated against my leg. Quickly, I slipped the phone out and checked the caller ID. I groaned. Charlie.
Slowly, I pressed accept and placed the phone against my ear.
"Bells?" Charlies voice rang through the phone.
"Yes Dad?" I replied, my voice was gruff so I cleared my throat.
"Can you come over to the station?" I heard a slight flick of what I assumed to be his watch, "In around five minutes?"
"Sure, but why?" I pondered as I bit my lip. Was it that important? The last time Charlie called me over, two men had died to vampires. Obviously, Charlie didn't know they were vampires...He believed it was an animal attack.
"Someone new has come to town, and I need you to give them a tour. They're studying our towns History. Theres not much to study though..." Charlie said after clearing his throat slightly.
"Okay, I'll be over in five"
OoOoOoOo
Eventually, after spending five or so minutes trying to get my truck to start, I slammed my foot down and finally, it started. Quickly, I drove over to the police station thinking about strange piercing blue eyes.
As I pulled my truck into the nearest parking space, I noticed how Charlie was talking to a man outside the station. Annoyingly, I couldn't see who that man was because Charlies head was blocking my way. Maybe it was that man I had met in the school...
I got out of my truck, slamming the truck door behind me, partly because I wanted Charlie to know I was here while the other part was because if I didn't slam the truck, the door wouldn't shut. Charlies head snapped to the side and I watched as he acknowledged me with his eyes while the man was still hidden from my sight. Sighing, I made my way over to Charlie and his...company...
I faintly caught what he was saying to the man, "...Ah this is my daughter who will gladly" I noticed how he emphasized that word. Maybe he wanted to make a great impression on the man. Possibly he was rich? "show you our wonderful town"
The mans face was finally revealed to me as Charlie turned around...It was the man from our school! Thankfully, it wasn't the selfish man. No it was the one with him. In fact he was very attractive like the other man. He had twinkling emerald eyes that were filled with excitement and interest. My eyes fell to his hair and I sighed internally. Oh joy. We have yet another James-Dean-haired man. So we have...Edward...Mikes impression...Even Charlie i'm afraid...and this other guy...However it seemed his hair was an exact replica. Strange.
"My name is Elijah Smith. I'm the new English teacher" He greeted me with a small smile tugging at his lips, interrupting my..'examine' of him.
"I'm Bella Swan" I greeted him with a smile.
"Bells, can you start from here and finish at the school?" Charlie asked me while straightening up slightly when Elijahs eyes fell to him.
"Sure"
Third Person
Klaus sighed and fell back into his seat. Already, he had a glass of bourbon in his hand and a miserable look on his face.
How could she not be compelled? Klaus thought to himself, And how can I use her...
Klaus wasn't sure of what he wanted from the girl but his brain was demanding something...
Maybe if I drank her blood, no witch could effect me? He asked himself.
"Maybe if I turned her she would have the ability to protect me from witches?" He wondered aloud before pinching the bridge of his nose.
He took a long gulp of his drink before setting it down on the table next to him.
Klaus growled in annoyance, he didn't like the feeling of being in the dark. Maybe he should just kidnap her, so he knows that he has her.
The noise of his phone brought Klaus out of the foul mood he was in. Swiftly, he snatched it from his pocket and brought the phone to his face.
One text message from: Elijah
Her name is Bella Swan.
Shes giving me a tour of the town. She has a Cold One bite on her arm. I'll find out as much as I can.
Klaus smirked before finishing his drink. Maybe he could get a use from this girl...Studying Cold Ones while having a girl who cannot be compelled who is involved with Cold Ones?
Someone up there must definitely love Klaus.
