Chapter 3: Encounters

BPOV

'Jessica's really going to talk my head off now' Bella thought as she walked towards her seat next to Edward.

She sat down and quietly got out her books, she sneakily glanced at Edward in time to see him clench his fist and scoot away from her.

'Do I smell or something? I know I didn't shower this morning. But I took one last night. Someone would have told me something by now... maybe he just doesn't like any one near him... or may- jeez Bella obsess much... why do you care?' Bella let out a sigh as she straightened up in her seat, which turned out to be a bad move as she felt her side begin to hurt. 'Oh... god... please just let me get thru school.

EPOV

"Hey Bella, why don't you come sit by me today." 'Finally my angel is here... Edward thought.

'Bella is looking good today… I so want to ask her out, maybe if I can get her to sit by me today I can put the killer Newton moves on her' - mike

'How dare he... she's mine. Edward growled. 'He shouldn't be allowed near her. Please don't sit with him... please...'

'Edward... calm down'- jasper said to him in his mind.

Edward looked down to see he was clenching the lunch table... putting a dent in it. 'Your going to get us noticed you stupid ass' -Rosalie. Edward quickly released the table from his hold, and put his hands in his lap, n continued listening to the conversation a few tables away.

"Umm... I'm actually gonna sit by Angela." Bella said. It almost sounded like she was prepared to say that. 'yes' – Edward

'aww man.. Maybe I can just ask her in class, that could be better cause jess won't be there to bother us... maybe I can get her to come out to the hall with me and have my way with her in the janitors closet' –mike

GRRRRRROOWWWLLL! (AN: that's supposed to be a growl... lol)

"Edward what's wrong" Emmet asked?

"Stupid Newton was thinking ugly about Bella" Edward.

"Who's Bella... what did I miss?" Emmet asked confused.

"Bella's the girl Edward's falling madly in love with" Alice said with a smile.

"A human are you an idiot... wait what am I asking for? Of course you are... it's just so like you to do something so irresponsible..." Rosalie insulted.

Edward tuned out the rest of what she was saying. It seemed that the Stanley girl was talking about them.

"OMG, but Bella that's not even all of it, there all together, I mean together together. It's just weird. Emmet and Rosalie are together and Jasper and Alice. The only good thing about that family is that Edward's single."

"Oh well good luck" Bella Said. 'That's it? Not even a reaction..?'

"Thanks" jess said. 'OMG he's looking at me... looks like I won't be needing much luck after all' –Jessica.

'Like hell... she won't even come close to getting me... I belong to Bella'

BRINNNNNNG!

Edward and the rest of the Cullen silently got up and began walking to their classes.

'Biology... again... I hate repeating school' Edward thought as he sat down at an empty table.

'I wonder how Bella's doing. I wonder who gave her that damn bruise, I hope she's ok. I saw so much pain in her eyes this morning. And she said she fell… on what a fist? I will find who does this to her... and I will make them pay.'

'What's that... that smell... strawberries and freesias oh it's delicious... how I wish I could sink my teeth into that nec-.. Oh no Bella... its bella... figures she'd be the one to drive me insane. Focus Edward... no you're to close scoot away. You can't take any chances.

Edward watched as Bella seemed to suck in a breath and turn pale. Her eyes began to water and he suddenly became aware of the scent of blood gathered in certain areas of her body.

'More bruises... exactly how much does she have? I intend to find out'

AN: I know it wasn't much but its been a long time since I've updated and I decided to just leave you with something to keep you interested.

Hope you liked it.
