Chapter IV
Bella POV
"Angela!"
Of all the girls in Forks, it had to be no other than the sweet Angela Weber. Well, I guess it always the ones you least expect. I really had to figure out what I was going to do.
Biology was my next lesson, as I walked with Mike and Tyler. And I was a little surprised to see no other than seeing Edward Cullen who was MIA for the last week sitting at my desk. I walked down the aisle and sat next to him, and began to open my book.
"Hello." Said a quiet, musical voice. I looked at him, a little shocked; I forgot he could actually talk. "What?" I asked rudely. He blinked and cocked his head slightly as he spoke again. "My name is Edward Cullen. You must be Isabella Swan. I'm sorry I forgot to introduce myself last week." He said as he stared at me.
I glared at him, did he honestly think I forgot about his rude behavior last week. "Okay, let's make a deal. You don't talk to me and I don't kick your ass." He sighed. "Look, I am very sorry about last week. I... overreacted." He apologized.
"Whatever." I said as I turned my gaze back to the front. The teacher started talking; we were going to do a lab today. Edward pushed the microscope towards me and handed me a slide. "Lady's first." He said. I looked into it. "Metaphase." I said with confidence. "Mind if I check?" he asked. "Sure." I asked as I rolled my eyes. He looked into it. "Metaphase."
Edward put in the next slide and looked in the microscope for about half a second. "Prophase." He said simply. "Whatever." I said as I wrote down my answer. "Aren't you going to check?" He said. I rolled my eyes and checked. "Prophase."
"Like I said." He said with a smile, while I just rolled my eyes again. Honestly girls at this school found him attractive, they need their heads examined. "So why did you move to Forks?" He asked after a while.
"That is none of your business!" I hissed quietly at him as the class continued. He smiled a crooked smile that would have sent the heart of your average teenage girl racing. However, it didn't affect me. Only one man could do that me and that was Peter.
"I'm sorry. I shouldn't pry." He said softly as his expression changed from friendly to guarded, and he turned away from me. Three seconds later, the bell rang. I packed my stuff up, and walked to my truck.
The rest of the school day passed by in a blur and I soon was out at the parking lot next to my truck, just getting some stuff into my bag, nothing important, but I felt a strange sense of déjà vu. I peaked under my hood and saw Edward staring at me from across the parking lot next to his car.
I rolled my eyes as I turned back to my truck before I heard someone scream, and some car sliding on ice. The car was driving right towards me! Shit! My dream was coming true! I couldn't let it crush me! I quickly slide to my knees and formed a shield around my hand, it looked like a blue aura had formed around my hand.
As soon as the car was within reach, I reached out and placed my hand on the side of the van and used my shield, making it stop. This all happened in a span of about 2 seconds. I felt eyes on me, and looked up to see Edward, staring down at me. My shield had now disappeared, so he couldn't it, but he could see that my hand was against the door.
This gave the appearance that I had stopped the van with my bare hands… shit. Wait a minute, how did he get here so fast? No way could a normal human get across the parking lot in less than two seconds. "How?" We said at the same time.
Edward walked away quickly and I looked at the car. A hand imprint was marked in the passenger door. The paramedics soon arrived and placed me in an ambulance, even though I insisted that I was fine. As I got to the hospital, they sat me on a bed and the nurse just took notes.
The minute they wanted to stick a needle in me and wanted to take a blood sample, I was ready to run screaming bloody murder. I wasn't sure if my blood has some abnormalities, because of my powers and I wasn't going to take that chance.
A couple minutes later, the doctor came in. His nametag read: Dr. Carlisle Cullen. So this was Edward's adoptive father. He shined a light in my eyes and did the reflex thing with the hammer. "Ok, your vitals are fine. You might experience some post-accident trauma or a headache. If anything goes wrong, come here or call the front desk. Okay?"
"Got it. Can I go now?" I said, letting my annoyance into my voice. He nodded as he went to go sign my discharge papers. I got off the bed as I felt a pair of eyes on me again. I looked to the doorway, to see no other than Edward freaking Cullen standing there.
"Can I talk to you?" He asked I nodded, while I rolled my eyes. Wow I'm really doing that a lot around him, he is just that annoying. "What?" I asked, coldly as he came to stand in front of me. "How did you stop the van?" He asked. "I don't know; how did you get over to me so fast?" I shot back.
"You're not answering my question." He stated. "You didn't answer mine. Besides, no one is ever going to believe what you saw." I stated as I made my way out of the room with him following closely behind. "I saw you stop the van with your bare hands." He said as I turned to look at him.
"So what if you did, no one will believe you, so…" I said. "Well, no one's going to believe you, either." He shot back angrily. "I wasn't going to tell anyone. It's not like I know anyone that would actually give a damn." I said, before he turned around and walked to his sister and father.
Rosalie was glaring at me. "What you looking at blondie?" I asked to her. She just glared more. I just rolled my eyes at her as I went home and got into my pajamas and fell into a long awaited sleep.
Edward POV
How could someone so fragile stop a 500 lbs. van? That night I went to her room to spy on her. It was wrong, but I had to figure her out. It was a feeling that was just gnawing at my insides.
I later figured out that she talked in her sleep. It was mostly mumblings. After a couple of hours, I heard her whisper. "Peter." I was shocked, who was this Peter and how did she know him and why did I feel so jealous?
She kept saying other things, and every so often, Peter's name would come up. Around 3 a.m., she started talking clearly. She was thrashing and squirming, clearly having a nightmare. I wanted so desperately to comfort her, but I couldn't.
I could see she was about to wake up, so I decided to leave. I promised myself I would come back the next night, even if it killed me.
CLIFFHANGER!
Will Bella be able to save Angela from herself? And what about the the Edward situation?
I hope you all enjoyed this chapter. I will try to update as soon as possible.
