-Two 'o clock and I wish that I was sleeping
You're in my head like a song on the radio
All I know is that I got to get next to you
Yeah I got to get next to you-
-Next to You by Jordin Sparks
Chapter 3-
I tried to keep my gaze straight ahead. Don't look at her Edward. I told myself. This was insane, she's only human! But why do I have this weird feeling inside me whenever I think about her.
I couldn't help it. I turned and my eyes met two pools of chocolate brown. The eyes, they looked so amazing. They looked as if they held so many secrets, so much wisdom. No that was silly, she's only 16 or 17 and she's human.
I felt a strange urge to leave the table and walk towards my angel, my angel where's all this coming from. Jasper looked my way obviously feeling all the strange emotions coursing through me. I looked away from his gaze and tried to distract myself, by looking at everything but her, but me eyes seems to always find a way back to were she was sitting.
How could a human have such a reaction to me as she did. I didn't understand. I couldn't even read her mind. I started feeling frustrated, I hated not knowing. This was one of the first times I actually wanted to use my gift, but guess what it doesn't work! Great!
I couldn't understand this girl, but something in me really wanted to. I've always found my power frustrating, even if sometimes it would end up useful. Even I think its an invasion of privacy. But now I had the urge to read that girls mind, I could just imagine the wonders from it.
Wait, I don't even know her! How do I know she would be incredibly interesting? I started to feel very annoyed, and not just because I couldn't read the girls mind. From the corner of my eyes I could see Alice jumping and skipping excitedly. I didn't have to be Jasper to know she at the moment was very excited over something.
I looked towards the girl and saw she was concentrating on something, her face also looked very frustrated and it seemed to bother me that she may be worried. I wanted to go over there and smooth the worry lines that were etched onto her forehead. I wanted to know what was bothering her. I wanted to hold her in my arms and never let go. I wanted to touch her soft hair
What the hell are you thinking, I inwardly scolded myself. I need to distract myself. Right so the square root of pie is, my eyes wandered back to her table to see her talking to Angela and Ben, the only two decent people in the whole of the population of Forks. I was glad she had found good friends. I was suddenly hit with all the thoughts of the teenagers in Forks high.
'Wow that Swan girl is hot!' 'I wonder if she'll go out with me' 'I can't believe that Bella Swan all the boys are drooling over her even Mike I can't believe she's stealing my future husband from me'
I growled at the last thought belonging to Jessica Stanley. My family smirked at me and rolled their eyes. I realised they'd heard me and most likely knew what I was growling at. I sat down at our usual table. Sadly, I could not watch Bella for the rest of lunch because it would be too obvious seen as I had my back to her.
Wait, sadly, what?
All these emotions that are coursing through me, seem somewhat foreign and familiar at the same time. I could hear Clair de Lune blaring form someone's earphones, yet no-one had earphones on, it was then did I remember that Bella had headphones on. I smiled, it seemed me and Bella had something in common.
Hmmm, Bella, that name suited her perfectly, and her name meant beautiful in Italian, and she certainly was! Whoa I really need to get a hang on my thoughts; I don't whats happening to me. The phrase il mio amorewent through my mind in Italian, my love. Okay my mind is going into override, firstly she is not mine and secondly, I do not love her. Or do I. My mind contradicted. I really need to stop watching the chick flicks Rose and Ali watch and get out of the house when they do.
Then I heard the most beautiful sound in the world, and my head turned at its own accord only to find that it escaped from the perfect lips of my angel.

"I think I'm going to go to Biology now." Bella said.
Edward's head whipped round and I rolled my eyes. We'd all just watched that personal battle he'd had with himself. Who'd of thought Edward would ever be confused about anything. But then again not being able to read minds must put him in the dark.
Aaah, it was a happy day! Edward had finally found his soul mate, even though he did not know that yet. Well, I wasn't going to tell him, he'd find out soon enough. And I wasn't worried he'd hear my thoughts because right now he's too preoccupied.
"I think I'll go Biology now" he mumbled before getting to his feet quicker than human speed. "Edward!" Rosalie hissed. But he ignored her, dumping his tray and walking off after Bella.
"Gosh, all this fuss over a stupid little human" Rosalie muttered
"How would you feel if you were in Edwards' shoes and Emmett was sitting there completely oblivious to you!" I muttered back. Rosalie just flicked her hair back over her shoulder and said "Well Emmett would already be over here asking me out on a date, considering how beautiful I am." I rolled my eyes and was just about to make a smartass comment when the bell rang signalling the end of lunch."
EPOV
I was listening to the conversation Bella was having with Angela and Ben. They were asking her how she was enjoying Forks. Oh how I wish I could be there talking to her, breathing in her scent and watching as she ate peacefully. Pull yourself together Edward she doesn't even know you there. Maybe it wouldn't hurt if I went and sat next to her and asked her how she was. Just then I heard her chair scrape and from my peripheral vision I saw as she rose from her chair. She told Angela and Ben that she was going to Biology.
Yes this was my opportunity to talk to her. I quickly muttered to my family that I was leaving to go to class too and got up faster than human speed, but who cares; I can finally talk to my Bella. I heard Rosalie hiss my name but I didn't care. I moved away from the table and followed my angel down the corridor, walking quickly to catch up to her.
Hope your liking this story so far!
