A/N: thanks for reviewing keep them coming : )
I was on my way to the hospital. Today I was supposed to be meeting my therapist as part of the agreement to let me come here. So there I sat waiting to meet him. The door open and there was an older man with pale skin and a friendly disposition.
He introduced his self as Dr. Aro Voltori. He asked me about my family and the things I liked.
"Can we just cut to the chase already?" I said sick of the useless chatter?
"Is it useless Isabella?"
"Don't please, just cut to the chase with me I don't want to be friends. The only reason I'm here because I'm being forced!"
"Why are you being forced?"
Just then his bell dinged saying my session was over I got up and stormed out of the office. I wasn't looking and I bumped into something and it was him again.
"Are you stocking me or something?"
"Don't flatter yourself Isabella"
"My name is Bella." I groaned, " and shouldn't I know your name it's only fair?"
"No I don't think so" he smirked and walked away.
I was so irritated. I swear he was just trying to annoy me. I drove to the grocery store and got things to make dinner. I made lasagna in the oven and then decided to go do some homework. when I finished I made a salad and some garlic bread. I was just setting the table when Charlie came home
"He bells smells good," he smiled
"Hey Charlie how was work?"
"Good how was school?"
"Ok," he smiled.
We ate and Charlie had like 3 portions and sat back. "That was so good bells"
He smiled and went to watch some sports. Not being in to them much .I went outside for a walk and told Charlie I would be back in a while. I grabbed my sketch pad I walked out there was a park across the street. I just wandered for a while thinking about things. I didn't really know how I found it but it was a meadow it was beautiful with wild flowers and moss covered trees there was a small pond and the sun was just setting it was brilliant. I sat down and began to sketch the scenery for class.
"So are you stocking me? "I jumped.
"Oh my fucking god what's your problem? What are you doing here?"
"I come here every day and being that, I lived here first than means you're following me"
"Look I'm sick of the games I'm not here to amuse you," I said packing up my stuff.
"Ok I'm sorry." he said somewhat sincere.
"Thank you, I have to go."
"Well it was good seeing you Isabella."
"It's Bella"
"Edward"
"What?"
"Edward Cullen is my name."
"Bye Edward"
I went home hopped in the shower. Then I went to bed that night, dreaming of Edward. The next few weeks flew by rather uneventful. Alice, Rose, and I were becoming inseparable.
I hadn't seen Edward around much at all he barely ever came to class and when he did he would run out before the bell would ring. And he was never at the meadow When I was there. I began to think he was avoiding me.
It was early October and I woke up snow was falling. Charlie had gone to work but when I got outside he had put chains on my tires.
Charlie never said it but through his jesters I could always tell he loved me .the best thing was he gave me space something didn't have with mom and Phil.
The day had flown by in a blur and I was walking to bio when Jessica and the bunch walked past shoving me in to a locker and not even stopping to acknowledge me. I felt the anger pooling in my body and before I realized what I was doing I was on top of her beating the shit out of her. when I felt a pair of strong arm wrap around me
"Whoa tiger," his velvety voice said.
"You're crazy!" Jessica screamed.
The principal came up and the security broke through the crowd that was forming.
"Let me go Edward!" I yelled, and he did.
"What is going on here?" the principal asked looking straight at me like I started it.
"She just attacked me for no reason!" Jessica yelled. "She's crazy!"
"That's not true Bella was walking and Jessica pushed her into the lockers Bella was just defending herself," he cut in.
"Both of you to my office now!"
Edward watched as I walked away. Principal wolf gave Jessica detention and he suspended me for a week. It was complete bullshit.
I walked out to my car , so I could go home and wait for Charlie to get there. I remembered when I got in trouble at school Phil was so mad. He said it made him look bad being that he was a teacher there. The worst part was I was off for 2 days alone with him, needless to say he made me pay. I shuddered at the thought.
Edward was leaning agent my truck when I got out.
'What happened?"
"Got suspended for a week," I sighed "thanks by the way for telling him she started it. at least she got detention."
"Figures, principal wolf is her dad's best friend so she gets special treatment."
"why did you do it any way I mean u been treating me like a pariah for weeks now."
"Does it matter? Is it that hard for you to accept help?"
"Look Edward I'm really not in the mood for your games today," I said rolling my eyes.
He laughed "I can't help it your just so easy to upset."
I got in my car and slammed the door and drove away.
I made dinner and waited for Charlie to get home.
"Bella!" he yelled
"Hey Charlie," I smiled.
"What is this about you getting in a fight with the Stanley girl?"
"She started it she pushed me and she's constantly trying to bully. Me someone had to teach her a lesson"
"Listen bells, I agree with you that girl is a spoiled brat. But, fighting is not the answer ok?"
"Yeah I know Charlie," I said looking at the floor
"So wants for dinner?"
"That's it?" I was shocked mom would have ripped me a new one, and Phil well I hate to think what he would do.
"What do you want me to punish you?" he asked eyebrow cocked.
"No, but I'm curious what would it be?'
"Hmm, bed without supper" he laughed.
"Thanks dad for understanding I love you." I hugged him, shocking him a little bit
I ate then went to the meadow. I was surprised to see Edward sitting there.
"Charlie didn't kill you?" he said cocking an eyebrow.
"No, he wasn't even mad," I was shocked.
I sat down and started drawing .I was just finishing up my picture of the meadow, when he spoke.
"You have a lot of talent"
"Thanks," I smiled.
"Can I look?" he asked sitting right next to me grazing my thigh with his hand as he sat down. Causing my body to tingle.
I handed him my sketch book he flipped through. There was a lot of scenery and some cartoons then he came across the zombie pinup girl.
"This is interesting," he cocked an eyebrow.
'It and self-image of me I want to get it tattooed on my thigh."
"Why would a zombie be a self-image?"
I paused, I was drawn to tell him for some reason. But, I barely knew him. did I really want him to know how broken I really was?
"Why are you being nice to me all of a sudden?"
"Why are you answering my question with a question?"
"That's what you do all the time, don't like it?"
He sighed. "You interest me I find something drawing me to you."
"Oh"
"So are you going to answer my question?"
"I don't know you well enough to tell you that."
"Have you always been so stubborn?"
"I'm not stubborn that's an answer, "I said rolling my eyes.
"He pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed "you're incredible, I was kidding earlier. But, now I really think you just like to be a bitch!"
"Screw you Edward, at least I'm not an egotistical asshole!" I said storming away.
A/N: so what do you think? Don't you just hate Jessica?
