I felt like crap when I woke up. I hadn't went to sleep until late, didn't sleep well in the short time I did sleep, and on top of that Edward never came. My first thought was that something had happened to him. But relieve hit when I saw him in the school parking lot. I parked my truck, and walked over to him. That's when I saw something horrible. Caroline.
When Edward saw me he walked directly over to me. He wrapped his arm around my waist, and kissed my cheek. We began to walk over to where Alice and Caroline were standing. "Bella, I'm sorry I wasn't there last night. Caroline needed to hunt and Carlisle thought it would be best for us all to go for moral support. I broke my promise and-" I cut him off. "We'll talk about that later. I want to know why she is here," I said looking at Caroline.
"Bella," he sighed. "Caroline is going to be joining us at school for a few weeks. It's going to be a while for her to make the transition to animal blood." I grimaced. He stopped and turned to look at me. He ran his finger along my jaw. "Bella, be nice." he breathed, giving me goose bumps. I plastered on a smile. "See now. Is that hard?" he asked.
"You can't make me like it." I growled. He smiled and kissed me.
We made our way over to Alice and Caroline. They were talking excitedly about clothes and planning some shopping trip. The one thing that could come out of Caroline being here, she could go with Alice shopping, and Alice could leave me alone. "Hey Bella!" Caroline and Alice and Alice said at the same time, and then giggled. I repressed the urge I had to roll my eyes. "I'm so excited!" Caroline gushed, "I haven't back at school in like what? Four or five years?"
"Are you sure you'll be okay around all these humans?" I asked. She glared at me. "I'm sure that-" she started to say but Edward interrupted her. "You know Bella has a point. You only hunted animals once and your control could not be good as could as we think." He said. Caroline lifted her glare from me to Edward and her eyes tightened. "But, you know, we'll never know until we test her limits, right?" Edward said quickly. I looked up at him, and he just looked down and smiled. "Come on we'll be late." Alice said.
Caroline was posing as a foster child the Cullens had temporarily taken in. They were telling everyone that she was only staying for a few weeks. A truth I clung to, because as soon as she was gone everything would be back to normal. Caroline had first period with Edward and me. That was really annoying. They sat in class the whole time, having some kind silent conversation in their head. I'll admit it, I was jealous. I mean, she had this amazing connection with Edward, and we would never have anything like that. She had second period with Alice, my third period Calculus with me, which she insisted that she sit next to me. After that we had lunch.
Lunch was normal. Angela, Ben, and Mike sat with us. Mike sat with us because there was a new novelty at our table. The three of them asked her question after question, and she answered all of them. She also flirted viscously with Mike, and he loved that. I found it funny. Maybe he would leave me alone for now. After lunch Edward and I had biology, and she wasn't in that class. I was happy for that cause now I could some alone time with him. I tried to talk to him about last night and Caroline but Mr. Banner kept shushing us. I eventually gave up and wrote him a note instead.
What happened to you last night? I wrote
I'm so sorry Bella. Caroline needed all of us for hunting and went longer than expected. I'm sorry; I broke my promise to you.
It's okay. What were you and her 'talking' about in first period?
Nothing of the importance, really. She was asking questions about the family, how we all became as we are. She also wanted to know about the Volturi. She said that she had heard things, but wasn't sure of what or who they were.
Oh. What did she think of the Volturi?
She's seems scared of them, like any vampire that values their own life should.
Oh.
Are you upset with me?
No.
How about I make it up to you? I'll come over right after school; we'll spend all afternoon together.
Sure!!
Everything was okay for the rest of the day. Caroline had the class after Biology with Edward, and me and the last class of the day Edward and I had together. In my last class Angela came over and asked me if I wanted to go down to Port Angeles. I turned down because I was hanging out with Edward.
When school was over, Edward and I walked out to the parking lot, hand in hand. Caroline and Alice were talking excitedly again. "Bella!" Alice chirped, "Were going to Olympia tonight! Wana come?" Caroline looked at Alice and her eyes tightened. "Oh come on. Bella doesn't want to come, you know that. She's no fun." Caroline said. "What about you Edward?" she looked over at him.
I expected Edward to say no. "Sure. Sounds fun." He said.
"Edward!" I screeched. "I thought you said you would come over."
"But Caroline-" he started.
"Fine. You want to hang out with your new best friend. That's cool." I said, tears stinging my eyes, rejection washing through me. "If you need me I'll be with Angela, in Port Angeles." I yelled storming off toward Angela. "Bella!" Edward called after me. "Oh come on Eddie. She's just being a stick in the mud." I heard Caroline say.
"Ang!" I called approaching her.
"Hey, Bells." She had been talking to Ben.
"Is the offer still up for tonight up? Me and Edward got in a fight and I need some girl time."
"Sure. What time do you wana go?"
"As soon as your ready!"
"Okay. I'll pick you up in a while."
"Okay. See you then." I said. I ran back to my truck and climbed into the cab. I looked in my rearview mirror, check for Edward but they weren't there. They had already left. I cried driving myself home.
Please , please review and tell me what you think!
