I DO NOT OWN TWILIGHT OR ANY OF ITS CHARACTERS. I ONLY OWN MY OCS AND THE NEW PLOT I PUT THEM IN.
A/N: Big thank you to everyone who followed, favorited, and review. You rock! Warning: There will be detailed lemons in this story! Oh, and some cussing. This might seem like a crackfic at times, but I promise to keep it on a plot that makes sense. I have no beta so if I mess up any grammar, my bad though a big thank you to d210333 for beta reading the first two chapters, that was so nice of you. A little Bella bashing and others bashing to start off with but it doesn't last, I swear. I'm sorry if Bella or anyone else seems a bit OOC but hopefully it will be explained in the story. Was that cliff hanger in the last chapter evil? (Muhaha!) Also I know I'm making the attraction and everything between Edward and Ava happening pretty quickly but don't worry I have a plan and no they won't start dating after just a few days. Another thank you to FreeSpiritSeeker (I am so happy it made you smile. My best friend can't have children and it drives me crazy when people make her feel bad about it), Sillygabby (I'm happy that you like the story and I hope you continue to enjoy. Thank you for the suggestion, I was planning on doing something similar when the idea involving Alice came to my brain), MEGUMIthePENGUIN, and SailorJupiiter001 for reviewing. Enjoy.
Chapter 4: Up close and personal with Edward Cullen.
For the rest of Biology neither Ava nor Edward spoke. He stared at her intently trying to get her to look him in the eyes, while she did everything in her power to make sure she didn't do just that.
The moment the bell rang Ava was up and out the door, Edward hot on her tail.
"What happened?" Bella asked worried and Eva shrugged.
"I'm sure she's fine. I'll see you next period" she said before going off in the direction that her sister and the vampire had gone.
Bella followed Mike to gym as he babbled on but her mind was only on Ava and Edward Cullen.
She had been so embarrassed when he had glared at her but then Ava had said something and he had stopped. Then her usually bold as brass cousin had practically run away from the Adonis like teen, and he had followed her.
Bella let out a small frustrated sigh. 'Just what the hell had happened?'
########################################################################################################
Ava walked quickly in the halls, she didn't know where she was going but it didn't matter at the moment.
'Stupid, stupid, stupid.' She chastised herself as she walked. She knew this was a possibility but honestly hadn't thought one of them would have slipped so soon. 'And now I'm running away like some scared little bunny.'
This thought brought her up short and she suddenly stopped walking causing Edward to smack into her back.
She started to fall forward when suddenly she found her body encompassed by cold. Edward had caught her and was holding her, her back was pressed against his chest.
"Thanks" she said before trying to get out of his arms. He didn't let go at first but finally released her, though he did keep a hand on her arm.
Ava turned to him and lifted a brow, she had gotten her baring's back. She was no bunny.
Edward, despite the panic he felt at her possibly knowing his secret, smirked at her thoughts. He agreed with her though, 'Far too feisty to be any kind of prey' he thought.
"Can I help you?" Ava asked and Edward sent her a flat look.
It was basically saying, 'Really, you want to play dumb?'
"May I speak to you in private?" he asked and his jaw ticked when she shook her head.
"I have class, I need to get this slip signed. Sorry" she said not sounding sorry at all. She even smirked a little when Edward pinched the bridge of his nose in frustration.
He couldn't force her, well he could but he didn't want to. He wanted her to talk to him willingly and explain how her and her sister knew about vampires. If he was being honest with himself then he would have admitted that he wanted to talk to her about anything she wanted, as long as he got to spend more time with her.
Of course he was in denial and tried to ignore those thoughts, they were dangerous. He was a monster and she was a fragile human after all. No, he only wanted an explanation. Nothing more, nothing less.
Edward wasn't the only one trying to deny their feelings. Ava was determined to ignore the weird flips in her stomach at the feeling of being so close to Edward with their skin touching.
"What about after school?" he asked trying to be polite. He was a gentleman after all, even though this girl was pushing his buttons.
Ava gave a mock sigh and batted her eyelashes. Edward didn't know whether to laugh or groan in frustration. "No, I don't think I can".
"And why not?"
"Don't want to", was her easy reply.
Edward sighed again but then smiled. He knew people were watching them, they were standing in the middle of the hallway while everyone was trying to get to class after all.
He gently led her to the lockers, Ava raised an eyebrow but allowed it. Once they were by the wall Edward stepped closer into her personal space and she had to bite back a gasp. He heard anyway and smirked. Ava shot him a dirty look.
He placed one hand against the wall and leaned in slightly. "Are you sure you can't?" he practically purred.
Ava came to the quick realization that Edward Cullen, or Mr. Prude as some people called him, was trying to dazzle her to get answers. Edward glared at the nickname.
'Two can play this game' was the only warning the mind reader got before Ava pressed their chests together and brought their faces closer. Their noses were almost touching at this point.
"I'm sure. Now move…please" she said in a soft voice as her eyes seemed to pull him in.
Edward found himself wanting to find out what her lips would taste like.
He scooted out of the way and Ava began to walk away when he caught her hand in his. "This isn't over you know?" he asked. It wasn't a threat, just a promise.
"I know" she whispered before gently pulling away from him.
Right before she turned the corner Ava looked back and saw Edward standing in the same spot, watching her.
########################################################################################################
"What's going on Edward?" Rose asked him in gym class. Jasper was with them as well but he didn't pry into the mind reader's feelings, something Edward was grateful for.
"What are you talking about Rose?" he asked not looking at her. He knew she was talking about Ava. Word had gotten around pretty quickly that Edward Cullen had been seen getting cozy with one of the new girls. His blonde sister was not pleased.
"She's human Edward" she shot back with venom.
Before he could reply Jasper spoke up. "I wouldn't be so sure about that' he told them before relaying what he and Alice had smelled earlier that day.
Before Rose could blow a fuse, or try and hurt Ava, Edward cut her off. "We'll have a family meeting tonight, until then drop it." He spent the rest of the period blocking out Rose's less then flattering thoughts.
Though he didn't find it too hard to do since his mind was once again filled with thoughts of Ava Bedlam. He had so many questions, some he didn't even think she could answer. Like why had she been able to calm his thirst?
When the Swan girl's scent had hit him he had been sure he was going to snap and drain her right then and there. He had even started to think up ways to get her alone and vulnerable. However, the moment Ava took his attention away from the girl and placed it back onto herself he had felt much better.
And what about when he had looked into her eyes? He had never felt anything like that before. He had wanted to touch her, to feel how soft her hair was. To see if her lips were as juicy as they looked.
Not to mention a few inappropriate thoughts that had both aroused and embarrassed him. Just thinking about it now made him happy he couldn't blush.
Jasper shot him a curious look.
'Well at least I'm not turned on anymore' he reasoned to himself. Of course his traitorous brain picked that moment to remind him about how nice it felt to have the leather clad teen pressed up against him and he felt his body start to react.
Jasper's eyes grew as big as saucers when he felt the lust rolling off of Edward. He had to stop himself from laughing like a madman, he had never felt his brooding brother get this emotion before.
Edward sat on the bleachers and let his head fall onto his arms that were laid out against his knees. His brother was teasing him with his thoughts, he knew it would be worse when Emmett found out.
'Can a vampire die from embarrassment?' he wondered.
########################################################################################################
Ava made it to her math class two minutes late. The teacher raised his eyebrow, "Late on the first day Ms. Bedlam?"
"I had to pee" she said with a straight face as she handed him her paper. He blushed a little and coughed.
"Yes, well take your seat" and she went next to Eva.
They shared an amused grin as she sat down. "Well?" Eva whispered and Ava told her what had happened.
Ava smacked her arm when she saw that her sister was laughing. "Shut up it's not funny" she whined.
"Yes it is. You two like each other, you're just stubborn. It's some kind of cute love at first sight shit."
"It is not, plus he's meant for Bella remember?" she said and Eva rolled her eyes.
"I'm not so sure" she continued when Ava shot her another look. "Look, all I'm saying is that we are in an impossible situation and we can't just assume that things will be the same".
"So does that mean you're going after Jakey-poo?" Ava shot back and Eva glared before shrugging.
"Who knows."
Ava sighed and unwittingly copied Edward by putting her head on her arms.
"So what are we going to do about them wanting to know how we know?" she finally asked.
Eva's smile told her that she might like whatever her twin was cooking up. "Don't worry I have a plan, and if we need it I have a back up plan as well." Eva reassured her.
"Well lay it on me sister". They started whispering to each other. Everyone's eyes snapped to the girls when they burst out laughing.
The teacher glared and the students stared until they realized that the twins didn't care, they only looked back with blank expressions.
'Oh this is gonna be fun' the girls thought.
########################################################################################################
The girls were pleased to see that they shared the same English class as Bella, though Ava groaned when she saw that Edward was in there as well.
Edward perked up when she came in and smirked when he heard the teacher's thoughts about where to seat them.
Ava saw his expression and groaned. 'No, no, no!' she chanted and his smirk grew.
"Alright" Mr. Berty said and Ava was trying use telepathy to get him to not say what she knew he was going to say.
It didn't work, though it did make Edward laugh.
"Ms. Bedlam" he looked at Ava, "Please take a seat by Mr. Cullen". Luckily the teacher didn't hear her cursing under her breath.
She slowly walked to her seat wishing she was by Eva or Bella instead. 'At least Eva's close' she thought as she saw her sister sit a couple desks over next to Angela. Poor Bella got stuck with Mike.
Ava took in a deep breath and sat next to Edward, she noticed her desk seemed closer to his than when she first looked. 'Did he move it? No, that'd be ridiculous' she told herself.
Edward felt a little embarrassed since he actually had moved the desk. He just wanted to talk to her and he was determined to get some answers this time.
'Not to mention she smells so good, like rain and lavender.' he thought before feeling the urge to smack himself.
Ava was determined to ignore the vampire next to her and instead began to doodle in her notebook. She was so lost in her drawings that she almost jumped when Edward spoke.
"You're very good" he whispered close to her ear and his sweet smelling breath rolled over her.
"Thank you" she said before noticing Jessica and Lauren glaring and whispering, most likely about her.
'Bitches' she thought before putting on an overly sweet smile and flipping them the bird. Their jaws dropped and they spun away from her.
'That's what I thought' she congratulated herself in her head. She heard a soft chuckle.
"You shouldn't cuss" he said and Ava looked at him with a raised brow and a smile.
"I have no idea what you're talking about" she said sweetly making Edward sigh.
'So she's not going to make this easy'.
"I like your hair" he blurted and she actually looked surprised before gaining a suspicious gleam in her eyes.
"Really? I didn't peg this as your style" she said honestly.
Edward nodded, it was true after all. He usually wasn't a fan of what he considered rebellious or outrageous looks, but he could appreciate beauty. And despite his usual tastes, Ava was beautiful.
"Usually it's not, but it suites you" he told her and she gave him a genuine smile making it feel like his undead heart had skipped a beat.
"Thanks", and she went back to drawing.
"It's an interesting color" he continued, he had just gotten her talking and he didn't want her to stop now. Before he knew what he was doing he had reached out and taken a curl between his fingers.
It was soft and thick, if he didn't know any better one could mistake it for her real hair color. There was no breaks or anything that came with bleached and dyed hair. He wondered why.
"You know" Ava said, her voice tinged with amusement. "For someone who is rumored to not talk to anyone outside of his family, you sure are handsy with strangers" she teased.
Edward realized how he must look. Here he was, for the second time that day, laying his hands on a girl he hadn't even formally been introduced too. His eyes widened and he looked down. "I apologize, you must think I'm very rude".
Ava gave a small laugh shocking him and his eyes snapped back to her green ones. "No, just different. Though I'm the last person who could judge someone of being different."
He smiled and she returned it, though soon it dimmed a little.
"Um, just a quick question." She said and Edward tensed. Here it came, the questions and theories.
"What do you think of my cousin Bella?"
Well that was the last thing he had thought she would ask him. He became confused but guessed it was an understandable question seeing as he had glared at the girl earlier.
"I don't know her, though I am sorry for making her uncomfortable." He said honestly. His curiosity only grew when he picked up flashes of him and Isabella Swan as a couple. Yet, something was wrong. Isabella was sitting where Ava was and Ava was no where to be seen.
'More mysteries' he thought as the flashes stopped.
"You don't think she's pretty?" Ava asked. She didn't know what she wanted the answer to be though she tried to tell herself that she should want Bella and Edward to still get together.
"What do you mean get together" Edward asked, he couldn't contain himself. These girls seemed to know much more than what he had originally thought.
Ava's eyes became wide again and she cursed herself. "Nothing, I didn't say that. Never mind." She said before turning away from him and trying to keep her mind blank. That wasn't what she had really wanted to ask him. It wasn't part of the plan, but she couldn't help herself.
'No wonder Bella's so curious, must run in the family' she thought.
For the rest of class Ava successfully ignored Edward Cullen. No matter how many times he would try to get her attention she would simply give a quick answer, if that. He stopped when she started to think about naughty things to throw him off.
Though she was a bit surprised to see him covering his lower half with his backpack at the end of class.
'Things just keep getting weirder and weirder.' She thought as she joined Eva and Bella.
########################################################################################################
Eva was sitting in the bed of the beast waiting for school to be over. She had finished her math homework quickly but she'd wait to work on her English with Ava.
That was one of the things that the twins did differently. Math and Science came easily to Eva, while art and the written word was more of Ava's expertise.
Though both teens could draw, sew clothes, and sing. Eva didn't play an instrument like Ava did.
"Hello" a bell like voice said and Eva snapped out of her thoughts to look at the one and only Alice Cullen.
"Heya" Eva said with a friendly smile. Alice was just impossible to not be nice too, she was just too adorable. "What's up?"
"Not much" the pixie giggled. "Can I join you?" she asked as she hopped into the bed of the truck, not waiting for an answer. Though it wasn't like Eva was going to say no anyway.
"So I saw something interesting, and I think you know what I'm talking about" Alice said getting straight to the point.
"If you say so" Eva smirked with a shrug and Alice giggled.
"I do and you should know there's a reason my family never bets against me." She scooted closer as she got excited. "Now, I know we'll be best friends, even though you two have changed so much." She saw Eva's slightly guilty look. "Don't worry, even though some things look fuzzy I can tell that you don't have to feel guilty."
"Really?" Eva asked smiling again, geez this world was giving her emotions whiplash.
"Really and we have a lot to talk about, but Ava should be there to so we can make a game plan." She smiled at the other girl's surprised look. "Like I said we're going to be friends and I think you'll need someone you can tell the whole story to so we can see how to approach the others."
Eva nodded a bit, it made sense. It would be nice to have someone besides just the two of them that was in the know and could help them with the other vampires.
"What about Bella? Ava won't-".
"Don't worry, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised."
"Suuure".
"I knew you'd say that" Alice said and they laughed. "Now, about this plan you were thinking up that had to do with your sister and my brother, I want in".
It looked like the beginning of a beautiful friendship.
########################################################################################################
Ava finally found her music class and the teacher, Ms. Smith, smiled at her as she signed her slip.
"Welcome to advance orchestra dear. What instrument do you play?"
"Piano", Ava told her pleasantly.
"Oh really, how long have you been playing?" the teacher asked enthusiastically. She only had one other pianist and that was Edward Cullen. After the quite and polite boy had been seen playing none of the other students had tried out for it.
Not even the girls that the staff called the Edward Cullen fanclub.
"Since I was four" Ava said and she became a little worried at the teacher's smile.
"Great, we only have one other student on the piano this year so you can share with him."
'Him? Oh no, it's not who I think-'.
"Oh here he is now. Edward, Ava here is going to be playing the piano with you. I'll leave you two to get acquainted. I'm sure you can show her where we keep the music? Good" she said before waiving them off.
"So, Ava" Edward said as he was finally able to say her name out loud, testing it out. "You play the piano."
They sat next to each other on the piano bench. "As do you", she said. Edward handed her some sheet music and their fingers touched. For a split second neither moved as they let their fingers stay in place. Their eyes met again and for the second time that day they were lost in one another's gaze.
Gold against green.
The sound of people starting to warm up shocked them both back to reality. They turned with their hands resting on the keys, both pretended that they didn't notice that their legs were now touching.
"How long have you been playing?" Ava found herself asking and Edward gave her a lopsided grin.
'Far too good-looking for his own good' she thought unintentionally making his grin grow.
"Awhile, you?"
Ava's lips raised into its own little half smile. "Awhile", she smirked and he actually chuckled.
"Are you any good?" he teased her and was rewarded with a laugh.
"Guess we'll find out, won't we?"
Edward smiled as he took in her smile and happy eyes. He decided he liked how she looked when she smiled, but he liked it even more when he was the reason she did it in the first place.
"Guess we will".
########################################################################################################
Bella, Ava, and Eva were sitting down to dinner with Charlie. All three had a lot on their minds.
Ava, though reluctant to admit it, had had a lot of fun playing the piano with Edward. They hadn't talked much, but they didn't need to as they let their hands flow over the keys.
It had been oddly intimate yet lighthearted at the same time.
Eva and Alice had greeted Ava right outside of the class when the bell rang cutting off Edward's attempt to get her to talk about what had happened in Biology.
He had actually pouted.
Bella had been concerned when she had seen Edward with Ava since the only interaction she had had with the boy was of him glaring at her. She was glad to know that he had been nice to her cousin, even though she was a little jealous. Still, she was worried for Ava. She had never seen her cousin react like that to anyone, it made her curiosity sky rocket. 'What could he have done to make Ava actually run away?'
Ava had told her on the way home that Edward had wanted to apologize, apparently he just wasn't feeling well and had zoned out. Bella had just happened to stand in the wrong spot.
Bella wasn't sure if she bought that.
Something about Edward and his whole family was off. Edward was one of the most beautiful people she had ever seen, was it any wonder she wished he looked at her like he looked at Ava.
Though she couldn't hate Ava, she was just being herself. She had been envious over the twins ability to just be themselves but never over a guy before. Who knew Forks would have so much drama?
Eva sat down with a big smile on her face. Not only had she made a friend but Jacob had called when they got home, just to talk to her.
Now she just had to get Ava alone so they could meet up with Alice.
Ava felt like her head was going to explode. Edward Cullen wasn't as emo and self-loathing as she had thought, but who knew what he'd do tomorrow.
'Would he want to talk to Bella, or still want to talk to me? Would he try to say we shouldn't be friends? Were we even becoming friends? Would he even be there, or would he run off to Alaska like in the books?'
"So, how was your first day of school?" Charlie asked them.
The three girls looked at each other before speaking. They all said the same thing, "Fine".
A/N: Gah, that chapter took forever for me to write. So much drama in only one day. What did you think? Is Bella going to stay jealous? What things from the original story will happen faster or not at all? Why do the girls smell different and what does Alice and Eva have planned? What's going on with Edward and Ava? Next chapter has a mischevious Alice, hormones, and of course teen drama. Review, suggest, or ask if you'd like. Until next time, have a great day.
