Here comes the second chapter. Something happened with reviews and followers numbers, might be something about ffn. (I have little faith with this website)
Chapter 2 Before the party
Bella's POV:
When I came into the classroom, that Edward boy stared me like I didn't brush my teeth this morning and left some things on them. Or I wore a set of bikini which I hadn't got one my whole life. Maybe it's not like that, he wouldn't look at me with desires, right?
I sat down before him, pulled out some books and a notebook from my bag. I could hear my heart pouncing in my chest. I was sure he was up to something, maybe not something nice. I had long got used to people try to play a prank on me.
He turned to me, his golden eyes glimmering, half smile on his face. Definitely not something considered with 'good'. His palm formed into fists, maybe he want to punch me in the face something. But I hadn't annoyed him in anyway, as long as I could remember at the moment.
Someone could just be bad to you without a reason, I guess. I breathed deeply, and told myself to keep it together, and man up, to face it.
'Would you like to go to the party with me?' His silky voice caught me off guard. Gasps all around us. Going with the most popular boy in this school must have been the dream many girls had the past few days. I couldn't believe my ears, he invited me. ME.
Though I couldn't say that I dislike him, but I only have some feelings for him. Not enough for a crush even. But, it might be something good for me. Mum always went on and on about how I should go out with some of the good-looking guys in my school, to enjoy my youth, according to her. Upon hearing this party, she made me promise that I would find some guy and have a fling with him. Okay, maybe not that part. But I had promised her to go to the party with a guy.
I had been putting off to accept any invitation till this moment. Staying at home with my Jane Austin's novels to pass the party had kept its first place in my heart, not one thing could change that. And the time had finally came to the last day before the party, well, I would say that if it's the teacher with no hair asked me, maybe I would have chosen to go with him as well.
Lucky for me, out of some mysterious reasons, the most popular boy in this school was the one to ask me. So, what could I say aside from 'yes'?
I nodded, and his smiled more broadly this time. For that instant, I almost believed that he had some infatuation towards me which scared me to my core.
Studying in a new school might cause some schizophrenia, that would be my warn for all the girls like me who just moved from her home and met a boy who wouldn't be yours even in your dreams.
I went back to focus on the lesson the teacher might have already been giving for a few minutes. Then, Jasper came in, Edward's brother, with his eyes almost the same colour. He didn't seem that happy, but his mood visibly lightened up upon seeing his brother, or me.
My heart leaped.
It was this strange thing that when I became the girl every other girl would want to be, I nearly fell for someone else.
And I didn't get it, why didn't anyone ask Jasper out? At least not when I could see, which is quite a awful lot time. Even more than the pretty boy beside me called Edward.
And stomach twisted when he sat down in his usual seat.
Maybe some hospital specialised in mental diseases would like to let me have a place there. A high school girl out of her right mind maybe one of the interesting problems they would like to know.
Should I go to the party in this mental state, with my clumsy? Oh, that might have been the prank.
The next day
Edward's POV:
I hadn't slept all night. Well, vampire do not sleep. But, I thought, if I had been human, I wouldn't have slept all night.
If I had had a heart in my chest, it might have been beating really quick now. If I had had somewhere to know my pulse, it might have be the similar speed with some humming birds moving their wings.
Fortunately for me, I was not human, which helped me avoid heart diseases. I didn't think any human would survive through this.
Rosalie, the cold, queen like Rosalie, helped me to get a suit for the party. She hadn't bothered to do that before. And she even asked Bella would she be okay in buying some clothes for the party alone. She suddenly became really nice to me and my girlfriend. Though I was not so sure that I would be her boyfriend yet.
No one would be able to be fit for Bella, she was perfect.
The time finally came for me to get out of house, be on the car, and get Bella to the party. For Vampires who had super human abilities and lived longer than any human existed, they didn't not fell because some stairs. And me, did.
If it was not for Jasper who had grasped my arm that minute, I would have become the person all the families joked about a decade or more.
I thanked him sheepishly as he sent me a wave of calm. I felt sorry for him. Rosalie and Emmet had already gone to the party, maybe they were doing something couldn't be described in the car. And I was ready to leave, okay, maybe never ready, but it was time to leave. Anyway. Carlisle and Esme had some work to do in the town, might be another way to say they want to spend a night at a hotel.
There would only be Jasper in this mansion when we would all be enjoying ourselves. I had always been the one to company him in these situations, and here, I was gonna abandon him. Maybe it was not something that serious, but I felt terrible for this.
'Oh, feeling this terrible, would like me to replace you and go with Bella?' He joked, and I could sense his humour. He was gonna laugh.
Still, the loneliness stuck to his mind.
I felt somehow that I messed up.
Bella's POV:
After saying goodbye to dad, I got on the car. I had put on some make-up, and did something with my hair. I tried to let him not lose face over me, but I didn't have that faith in myself. But he chose me over all of others, and he didn't have a say in whether I was the pretty girl that should stand by his side.
To ease the atmosphere that nearly stroke me, I said : 'Who is the lucky girl to go with Jasper?'
'Jasper will be staying at home.'
I sighed, why would that boy be that lucky to get the chance to stay at home. It was not fair.
The boy beside me tensed up, if not before. Fearing that I mentioned something that I shouldn't, too private, I kept silence the whole way up to the party.
We got off the car when I suddenly felt a bit funny about the whole thing. We had fancy suits, we arrived on time, we even kissed when I got on the car. And here we were, standing beside the bus, with the expressionless face, like going to attend some funeral.
I laughed, and I scared Edward to death. Then, we got even more awkward. Maybe we both weren't some party people, and this would not end up anything good.
Someone from the far end of the hall appeared and caught my breath. I hadn't met him for ten years at least. He had grown a lot since we last met, and the boy who was once the same height with me now was one feet taller than me. Too much sunbaths might have gotten to his skin as he seemed to be a lot more dark than Edward who was abnormal white.
So, it's time for Jacob. And no, Jacob won't appear a lot in this story, but he will make be something to accelerate the plots, you would know that soon enough.
Please review, PM, let me know if there are some plots you want to involve in this story.
Thank you for all your support for this story.
Hopefully the next update will be in the weekend, but it's not a promise.
