I wasn't sure why we were in this dreary rain-soaked town, but Alice said it would be a good thing for us guys. I highly doubt that. To me, moving here meant that I would have to endure yet another year of High School. I was turned when I was 22 so I should be in college dammit!
We moved here with enough time for Carlise to have worked 2 full shifts at the hospital and for some of the gossip to spread about who the Cullens were. Knowing that I would have to be around hormonal, angst riddled teenagers made the hair on the back of my neck stand on end.
"C'mon Jas man, you're starting to make me depressed." Emmett said from in front of the T.V.
"Sorry Em, I got lost in my head." I said.
Edward chose that moment to come into the room and comment on something he HEARD in my mind.
"You know you can always play the older brother who is off to college." Edward said sitting down on one of the couches.
"You can stay out of my head EDWARD!" I growled softly.
I do everything I can to keep him out of my head. The ONE time I thin something to where he can catch it, I regret it. This is one thing I don't like about being here. My thoughts aren't my thoughts anymore. With Peter and Charlotte I could think anything and not have someone there to answer or comment on my thoughts.
"I wasn't trying to be rude by listening in Jasper." Edward said softly so only I could hear.
I sighed. I didn't want Edward to feel bad about his gift but sometimes it irks me to no end.
"It's cool Edward. I think I'm just tired of playing a teenager is all." I said just as softly looking around the room.
I know I was ready for this year to be over. I know Alice said it would be a great year for us but I was still doubtful about it. I decided that for the sake of the family that I would suck it up and see what all this fuss was about. The squeal from upstairs lets me know Alice is happy about my decision.
When we got to school the next day, I knew we would be the talk of the school. I tuned out all the comment and just let them float past me. It wasn't until History that my day started to look up. Walking into the class, I was hit from all sides with lust, curiosity and more lust Lets get this shit fest over with my brain said as I walked to the only seat left.
The girl sitting next to me was throwing out some serious lust that almost made me cum in my pants it was so potent. Not to mention she had a whole nother smell to her. It was like coming home after being gone for a while. I wanted to ick her all over and see if my thoughts were right. Looking over to her, I was hit in the gut by how beautiful she was, even by her profile. Even though she had a dazed look on her face, she was beautiful. She felt A LOT of embarrassment and I thought I'd help her out and when she looked at me fully, I thought the world was going to fall off its axis.
"Are you okay Darlin?" I asked so I could hear her voice.
She nodded and I was disappointed that she didn't speak and before I could say anything else, the damn bell rang. I shot up out of my seat before the other students and before anyone could see just how affected I was by this mystery girl. Edward was already walking towards me with a smile on his face. Great, this can't be good. I thought.
"Let's hear it fucker. What have you been hearing?" I said with a soft growl.
"The usual. How beautiful we are. Where did we come from. How soon is too soon to ask one of us out. I've heard at least 30 different ways each of us can be violated. I know we've done this too many times to count but is sex really the only thing to think about today?" Edward asked as we walked towards the cafeteria.
Emmett had joined us by then and he was in the middle of telling us that some girl in his classed asked if she could ride him like a stallion when I smelled HER again. Cue hard on! This is getting out of hand here. I didn't know the whole damn student body had lunch at the same time. Had I known that, I would have tried to prepare myself to see or smell her again.
"Oh man, keep that up and there will be a massive orgy in here bro." Emmett said laughing loudly so it bounced off the walls.
I looked around the room and found the source of my uncomfortable feeling. She was at a table with a couple other girls, so we sat at a table with one between us. We really didn't need to be close but I wanted to be close to her. I wanted to be sitting with her, but that would be strange, even to me.
"Her name is Bella Jasper." Edward said lowly even though he didn't need to.
Beautiful name for a beautiful lady I thought looking slyly over to her table.
Her friends looked like they wanted to put us on a place and sop us up with a biscuit. Hearing Bella try to get her friend's attention was funny to me. I looked over to Edward and he had a small smile on his face.
"They must be thinking something good-by that look on your face." I said still keeping an eye on their table.
Alice and Rosalie had come in and sat down with us and I continued to listen in at the other table. Alice was as usual, about to bounce out of her seat but one look from Rose had her settling down to hear what the newcomer was saying.
Rose was about to go over to the table when the newcomer said she didn't care about her and Alice. Emmett had to put his hand on her to stop her.
"She's not into females Rose so why be mad if she doesn't care about you. Be glad. It's us who have to worried we will be molested walking down the hallways." Emmett said to Rosalie.
Poor Edward looked like he wanted to burn his brain with a bottle (or two) with bleach. I had to know what was going on.
"I take it that what's being said in their heads is the reason you look like you want to throw up?" I asked.
He nodded and looking back to Bella's table, I felt that she was full of curiosity. I think Emmett laughing at something I missed was what made her curious, but she had a look on her face that said something else.
"She's wondering if we can really hear what they're saying with a full table between us and the noise level." Edward said.
Looks like this will be an interesting year to say the least. Bella might be someone to look out for if she finds out what we are.
