The next week and a half flew by with no incident. Edward had yet to make an appearance after his behaviour in biology that day. I tried to convince myself that I didn't really care about what Edward Cullen thought about me, it wasn't working very well. I was pregnant for crying out loud, I couldn't even think about trying to get a boyfriend while I was carrying someone else s' baby. My emotions refused to listen. I wasn't sure why, I didn't know anything about him except he was gorgeous and I was pretty sure he had a huge secret that his whole family shared.

I sighed as I stared down at my math homework, the problem with small towns? They are always behind on the curriculum. I remember doing this stuff in grade nine. Another problem about small towns? They love to gossip. I was still the centre of their gossip. Everyone some how knew my mother sent me here, luckily for me, they didn't know the real reason why my mother practically disowned me and sent me to live with my dad. They all think it was drugs or I got involved with some gang. My father actually got a kick out of that one when he found out.

The bell finally rang and I followed Mike and Jessica to the cafeteria, as was our routine, and my eyes automatically searched out the Cullen table. Just as before, disappointment coursed through me at the missing person I was desperately searching for. It must be these blasted pregnancy hormones. I shook my head, grabbed some food and went to our regular table. As usual, Jessica and Lauren were talking about some random thing while the others listened as if their life depended on it. Angela and I shared our look and rolled our eyes.

"What are you doing this weekend?" I asked her, pointedly ignoring the others.

She shrugged, biting her lip nervously. "I am not sure. I heard there was this new book store in Port Angeles opening up. I might check it out."

"Well if you do, give me a call and I will go with you."

She smiled at me and nodded. "Sounds good. Should we invite the others?"

We both glanced over at the other side of the table where they everyone was oblivious to anything that wasn't Jessica or Lauren. "No, I don't think they would appreciate the fine art of the written word."

"You are probably right." She chuckled. "What do you have after this?"

I made a face and Angela laughed. "Biology."

"It's not that bad."

"I know, but it's boring when you already learned everything."

She raised an eye sceptically. "Don't you say that about every class you have?"

I nodded, "Yes, because it is true. I don't mind rereading Shakespeare again, I would do that without having to be in a classroom, but learning everything all over again is seriously boring."

"Why don't you ask to be bumped up a grade then? You will actually be able to challenge yourself."

I shrugged. "Never thought about it, honestly." The bell rang. "Gotta go. See ya later." I smiled at her and made my way out of the cafeteria. As I walked through the door of the biology classroom I abruptly stopped and stared at my table. Sitting there like nothing ever happened, or that he wasn't missing the passed week of school was Edward Cullen. I walked over there with as much dignity as I could and sat beside him, giving him a wide berth.

"Hello, I am Edward Cullen." He announced, as if I didn't know.

I glanced at him. "Hi."

"I am sorry about last week." He apologized. "I was not... myself."

"Clearly." I muttered.

He chuckled. "Shall we start over?"

I chewed on my bottom look, wondering if he was serious or not. "Um sure. Why not? I could always use some more friends."

He was about to reply when the teacher walked in, telling us what we were doing that day. I groaned, seriously, couldn't they just make up a new curriculum or something?

"So why did you move to Forks?" I shrugged. "I hope it wasn't anything bad that brought you here."

I shrugged again. "Is there a particular reason why you care?"

"Not really." He smiled at me, a crooked grin that made my insides flutter. "Just trying to get to know you."

"Well the reasons that brought me here are very personal, and I am not in the sharing mood."

"My apologizes." We didn't talk for the rest of the class. I kept shooting him awkward glances and when he would look my way, I would instantly return to my paper. The bell rang and I shot out of my seat and out the door as fast as I could. Apparently it was not fast enough, Edward caught up to me. "I know what it is like to keep such a heavy secret."

I stared at him curiously, "I do not hold such a secret."

"There is no point in lying Bella, you act like you have the whole world on your shoulders."

I shrugged. "Maybe I do, doesn't mean I am going to share my secrets to a boy as rude as you."

He winked at me, "You will tell me eventually, it is only a matter of time."

I scowled at him, how could I ever like a arrogant jerk like this? "I am late for class, if you would excuse me."

He nodded, "Of course. Good day Bella."

I took off at a brisk pace, on my way to gym. Why they didn't just put me into a different class, I would never know. Of course, the school didn't know I was pregnant and luckily, I still wasn't showing at three months. I prayed to whatever God could hear me that no one, especially not that bronze haired Greek God, would ever find out I was pregnant. I sat on the bleachers, contemplating my already disastrous future. I couldn't let myself get involved with someone like that, it would be cruel to ruin his life with a baby that wasn't even his. I sighed, running a hand through my hair, frustrated. What is wrong with me? I've only been here for awhile and I am already acting like some love sick teenager for a boy I didn't even know.

"A penny for thoughts?" I jumped at the voice beside me. I hadn't heard her approach, and almost screamed when I realized how close she really was. Alice Cullen. Adopted pixie of the Cullen family, the one who always seems too hyper.

"Um, what?" I asked intelligently.

She grinned at me, her teeth whiter than her face. "I asked what you were thinking."

"Why would you care what I was thinking?" I asked, irritably. Couldn't I just be left alone?

She shrugged. "I don't really, just curious. You had such a serious look on your face, I figured you were thinking about something important." She eyed me shrewdly. "Was it a boy?"

I rolled my eyes, trying not to let her show how right she was. "Why would I be thinking about a boy?"

"Most girls your age." She leaned closer to me, to whisper in my ear. "I am pretty sure that is how young ladies, such as yourself, get pregnant."

I snapped my eyes to her, terrified. How did she find out? "W... what? I have no idea what your talking about."

"Lie to yourself Bella, and to everyone here. But I know the truth." I stood up shakily. "I am not trying to threaten you Bella, I only want to be a friend."

"I... I have to go." I answered quickly, not really understanding what she was saying. She knew my secret. She knew why I was sent here, she knew the reason why my mom wanted nothing to do with me anymore.

"Bella?" She asked.

I didn't realize I had been swaying on my feet, I suddenly felt dizzy and ran towards the door, trying to remember where the bathroom was before I lost my lunch all over the floor. In my mad dash for the washroom I ran into a very solid object just outside the gym doors. "Oof!" I squeaked, blushing what I imagined was a very unpleasant shade of red.

"Bella?" The familiar voice asked, and suddenly my knees felt weak. Why couldn't the ground just swallow me up now?" Are you alright?"

I looked up into the very golden eyes of the only Edward Cullen. "I... I'm fine thanks." I stuttered, untangling myself from his arms, I only then realized that he stopped me from falling.

"Thank God Bella." Alice dashed up beside me. "Are you OK? I am sorry if I said anything to upset you.

"Alice." Edward hissed through gritted teeth. "I thought I told you to stay away from her?"

Alice stuck her tongue out. "Why? So you can have her all to yourself?"

"I think I am going to go now..." I muttered to no one in particular, those two were wierd.

"See, now you have gone and scared her off."

"Me?" Edward asked annoyed.

I didn't hear Alice's reply as I turned around a corner, breathing a sigh of relief I made my way to the exit and cringed at the rain that was once again falling. Good bye sunshine. I jumped into my truck quickly, shaking the rain off my coat. I turned over the key and my truck sputtered to life. Shifting it in gear I sped out of the parking lot and made my way home.

Alice Cullen

I was still pouting when he got home twenty minutes later. Esme noticed my look but decided against asking. "Edward, this is all your fault!" I screamed, even though I knew he could hear me.

"What is the big deal?" Roaslie asked aggressively. "She is a human, she doesn't belong with us."

I rolled my eyes, "of course she does. She is Edward's mate, but since she is human he can barely feel the pull."

"Shut up Alice!" Edward yelled from his room. "There is no way me and some pregnant human are mates."

"Pregnant?" Rosalie asked, instantly perked up.

I nodded. "Yes, she's pregnant, but nobody else knows. The only reason why Mr. Brood up there knows is because he was sitting beside her in class and heard its heartbeat."

"Rosalie, don't even think about it." Carlisle growled, walking through the door.

"What?" She asked, smiling innocently.

"You are not going to befriend her, just to convince her to give up the baby."

"She's seventeen Carlisle, she can't look after that baby."

"Either can you, or have you forgotten that the baby would be a human?"

She looked down sheepishly, "of course I haven't, but its a baby Carlisle, why would any of us hurt a baby?"

Carlisle quickly glanced at Jasper, who flinched a little. "Not all of us are accustomed to this diet Rosalie. I forbid any of you to go near the girl."

"But... soulmate."

"No buts, I do not want any of you to get close to her." He narrowed his eyes at us. "That girl has enough problems without having to deal with ours as well."

"Carlisle..."

"No!" He roared, making us all flinch. Carlisle has never lost his cool before, what was so scary about this girl that would make Carlisle so terrified?

"Fine. I will stay away from her." I muttered.

"Good." And with that, he walked out of the room and up to his study, Esme right behind him.

"Well dammit." I shrieked, frustrated.

"Alice, you know what you saw in your visions. Nothing has changed since Carlisle said you could not befriend her. She will still be in our lives."

I grinned up at Jasper and gave me a peck on the cheek. "Your right, that makes me feel better."

He grinned back at me and winked. "Shall we go to our room, my lady?"

I grabbed his offer arm and giggled. "We shall."

After that, I forgot everything in that moment but my mate.

A/N: Alright here is chapter three. Sorry about the long wait, writers block... there is a very high possibility I might just put this one on hold so I could finish Progress Complete and Second Chances. We will see how it goes. As always read and review please. Your words are always welcome.
