A/N: Ok, this is for my 2 reviewers since it's 3:44 in the morning and I have nothing else to do, so here's the next chappie and I hope you all like it! Please review! Now I believe that the ending of this chappie and what Bella was half of should have been pretty obvious, but one of you guessed fairy so I'm not so sure anymore. lol
Bellas POV: Chapter 2
I woke up in the morning and yawned, stretching my arms above my head and sliding my covers off of me as far as they would go. I didn't want to get tangled up twice in one week.
I walked over to my closet and picked out my outfit for the day. I chose a simple red shirt and a pair of jeans once again slipping on my shoes and rushing down stairs. I skipped breakfast since I wasn't hungry and rushed out the door and into the constant drizzle.
I made it to school in about 15 minutes, stepping out of my car and walking to building C.
"Hey Bella!" I heard Mike's voice say from behind me. I turned around and smiled at him to be polite. "Hi Mike," I said softly.
"Let me take those for you," he offered, reaching out to take my books. I pulled away a bit, not wanting to encourage his crush.
"It's ok Mike," I assured him, "I can hold them." His face fell and we started walking towards our first class.
We had to start reading Shakespeare's Macbeth today and I was done before anyone else once again. I started to wonder if I would ever fit in here. If maybe I could be a normal kid and not the beautiful girl that everyone hated. It's not like I asked to be like this. I've never wanted to stand out. I just want to stand back and be part of the crowd and not the one on stage.
Eventually the bell rang and I stood up to head for biology class.
Luckily Mr. Englert didn't point me out today or anything that would have drawn attention to me. He just let me sit down in my seat in peace.
Edward came in a little late like yesterday, sitting down next to me and flashing me a brilliant smile. I smiled back shyly and looked back towards the front of the class where Mr. Englert was writing something up on the board. I tuned out what he was saying, having already learned everything he was saying back in 8th grade when I first started to be able to understand things immediatly. I let my mind wander for once, not caring if the thoughts were hurtful or uncomfortable.
I soon found myself wondering about the boy next to me. Why was he so surprised when I had heard him say my name? And why was he talking about me in the first place?
I felt my neck hairs prickle and knew someone was watching me. My first instinct was to look at Edward so I did, but it wasn't him watching me, no. It was someone else.
My eyes scanned the room and I soon discovered that it was some guy watching me. What was his name? I had met him yesterday but I couldn't remember his name. Tyler! That's it! His name is Tyler.
Edward stiffened up beside me and the bell rang. He shot out of class like a bullet, moving swiftly and gracefully. I stood up also and gathered up my own things, turning to leave class and almost running into a flustered Tyler.
"Hi Bella! Want to sit with me at lunch today?" He asked, looking at me hopefully. I shook my head no. "No, I don't think I'm going to eat today. I'm not hungry," I told him.
He looked crest fallen as he replied with a simple ok, ducking out of class and looking sullen. I left class also, being one of the last to leave. Walking silently to my locker, ignoring the stares I was receiving and stuffing my things into it.
I walked out of the building and made my way to the cafeteria, walking in and heading for an empty table so I could be left alone. I almost made it to one until I was intercepted by someone.
"Bella," Edwards smooth voice said. I nodded my head and started to walk around him until he said something I wouldn't have guessed in a hundred years. Well, from any other boy I would but from him no.
"Why don't you sit with me and my family at lunch today?" he asked. I looked up, my gaze locking onto his gold eyes as I nodded my head. He smiled and started to walk towards the table with all of the other beautiful pale skinned kids.
He pulled a chair out and gestured for me to sit in it. I complied, looking around and smiling shyly at everyone around us. "Bella this is my family," He said. "This is Alice," he gestured to the black haired, pixie looking girl sitting next to me. She had a huge smile on her face and looked very hyper and nice, smiling a smile that made me automatically smile back.
"Hi Bella!" She said, leaning over and giving me a hug. I was startled at first and she let go, still grinning at me.
"I'm Emmet," The tall muscular one said. He had shaggy brown hair and was pale like all of them, smiling a wide smile and holding his hand out for me to shake. I complied, feeling him squeeze my hand hard so I squeezed his back. His eyes had a playful gleam to them as he laughed, "Well, someone's strong! We'll have to arm wrestle sometime!" I laughed quietly and looked over at the blonde boy sitting next to Alice.
"I'm Jasper," he said calmly. A wave of calm washed through me and I relaxed, almost unwillingly.
"And this is Rosalie," Edward said, gesturing to the beautiful girl with long, wavy golden hair. Her expression remained blank and I nodded, smiling sheepishly at her. I looked at them all again and noticed for the first time their eyes were all the same color, topaz. A deep, rich topaz that gleamed in the light.
"Alice," Edward said in a cautioning voice. She stuck her tongue out at him and I couldn't help but giggle. Until she turned to me that is.
"Hey Bella! Want to go shopping this weekend?" She looked at me pleadingly and I couldn't resist but to say yes.
"Yay!" She exclaimed, clapping her hands together softly. I heard Rosalie say something to Emmet that sounded like "I don't like her." My head snapped around to look at her questioningly and she looked flustered for a second. It took me a moment to realize that I wasn't supposed to hear that.
I noticed that all of the Cullens were looking at me oddly and looked down at the empty table in front of me. They all started to talk again and I looked up, noticing that Edward was watching me and the others kept sneaking glances my way.
"I have to go," I said suddenly, standing up and pushing my chair in. I walked towards the door and heard Edward whisper my name. I looked back at him before continuing to walk away.
Edwards POV:
I looked at the rest of my family who were all watching me. "Aren't you going to go after her?" Alice asked, sounding a bit sad. I shook my head no and saw Rosalie's mouth twitch up into a smile. "Tyler and Mike are following her," I explained. Her smirk immediately turned into a scowl and she returned to look at Emmet.
"Something's different about her," Jasper said suddenly. We all looked at him, waiting for him to explain what he meant.
"She feels out of place, different. She doesn't want to be noticed and she hates school," he continued. I looked at him questioningly as I objected, "She's great in school. She doesn't even have to pay attention. It's like she understands it all right away. She finished our biology assignment yesterday without my help."
"Well she hates school," he said wryly, "Can't you read her mind?"
I shook my head no and they all stared at me incredulously, accept for Alice that is. I glanced over at Alice and could feel the waves of excitement radiating off her. "Alice what do you know?"
"I don't know anything," she lied. I read her thoughts which she had neglected to block and gasped at what she had seen.
"What is it?" Jasper and Emmet asked. I stared at Alice and she growled at me for intruding on her thoughts.
"Bella is half vampire."
