EPOV
Great another Day at another school, luckily I had already attended Forks High School in my past many many years ago.
I knew that the school would be like no other, minds of teenagers fantasizing about their untouchable crush, worrying about exams and the usual day to day worries.
Nothing Special just another day.
Walking through to reception my siblings and I were getting the usual stares, I couldn't help but look at all the people who's mental screams were directed at us, 'WOW!' 'I'd tap that any day' 'totally gorgeous'…I smirked to myself and just carried on walking.
We approached the reception desk and were all given our timetables for the rest of the term, I was posing as the youngest and so I would have all my classes on my own…the joy.
The first bell had already gone and not wanting to make a bad impression on the teacher I hurried to my class, not too quickly, I didn't want to scare anybody or arouse suspicion.
Right Biology, I found my classroom and not wanting to interrupt the lesson I walked to the teacher's desk and waited patiently.
"Hello, Can I help you?"
"Hello, and yes I'm the new student Edward Cullen."
"Oh yes of course Mr. Cullen." He looked around for a place to put me, after glancing back and forth around the room, he sighed, pointed in the general direction of my seat and said, "You can go and sit next to Miss. Swan over there."
"Thank you" I started to walk towards my new seat, when I realized the beautiful Miss. Swan, then suddenly, it hit me, her scent was the sweetest I had ever scent in other words she was my 'Singer'. But why her? Why now? I remembered everything I stood for and repeated in my mind don't kill her, don't kill her, which was then followed by don't breather, don't breathe!
Although I definitely didn't want to be rude, especially if she was my singer, I wouldn't be able to avoid her for long, but her scent was so mouthwatering…OK snap out of it, I can do this, be polite, be polite.
"Hello, my names Edward Cullen, do you mind if I sit next to you?" she seemed to have to think about it before she answered.
"Errrrr, sure"
I walked past her, which made her scent even worse; I pulled my seat as far away from her as I could and tried to compose myself. I held my breath as not to be even more distracted by it than I already was, and gripped onto the table for support.
I didn't realize I was staring at her until she turned to ma and whispered quietly, "Are you okay?"
…Wait she was worried about me? I didn't deserve this; she was beautiful, too beautiful for her own good. I didn't want to risk breathing by answering, I simply nodded and she quickly turned back to the front.
I continued to look at her, she seemed nervous, deep in thought….
…Hold on Thoughts!!!! I waited for her thoughts to hit me and as I waited…nothing. What? This had never ever happened in my whole existence, maybe she's special? Maybe that's why she is my 'Singer'? So many questions and all I wanted to do was 'hear' her.
I looked to clock and realized it was nearly lunch and as we arrived late to school, this was my first lesson so far. I needed to tell my family about this, they need to know. Carlisle might be able to help me.
Then she slowly turned to look at me, opened her mouth slowly and whispered…
"Vampire"
My mouth dropped and I'm sure if my eyes weren't already pitch black, they were now. I still held my rigid position and even as the bell went and everybody else left their seats to go for Lunch, we just sat there staring at each other. If my mind wasn't racing with questions before now it felt like I had so many questions they would all never be answered.
How did she know what I was? She couldn't just guess on a whim like that, people would think she was mad. Quick say something and she might just forget it…
"What did you just call me…"
I could hear her heartbeat picking up and the blush on her cheeks was the most complimentary colour but I needed an answer. I felt somewhat drawn to this girl as if my existence depended on it.
Suddenly without warning she tore away from my gaze gathered her things in a rush and bolted for the door. W were the only ones left in the room at this point and just as she was about to step out of the door I heard her feet trip and books fly through the air.
I ran at vampire speed to help her, I held her by the shoulders before she hit the floor and stood her upright, a small gasp escaped her lips and I instantly released her knowing that my touch must have been cold, not to want to have to answer for my actions, while her eyes were still shut I gathered her books at vampire speed and stood them next to her bag and was out the door just a second before her eyes opened.
My siblings were already waiting for an explanation at our table as Alice had already filled them in on what had happened, that all seeing pixie has her moments.
"Woah bro, I well wouldn't have lasted that long!" Emmet's booming voice as usual.
"Thanks for the encouraging words Emmet and for your information nothing happened otherwise we would have left by now."
"Alice?" Jaspers concerning words for Alice stopped our little quarrel.
Alice's face was distant, eyes black, a face we all knew too well she was having a vision. I quickly looked into her mind and it was Bella, she was walking to the Dinner Hall, sitting with her friends and then the gossip began.
We all smelt the sweet scent and turned to the sound of the door open, of course, it was her. Jasper's thoughts instantly became ravenous, I went into protection mode and couldn't bare the thought of her being hurt. What was I saying I didn't even know her first name. I scanned the thoughts of those she was walking towards "oh Bella's here."
Bella…What a name. It's just as beautiful as her in every way.
Jessica started her gossip; I didn't pay much attention as it was just like any other gossip. I continued to glance at her trying to read her thoughts but I still came up with blanks, this was becoming increasingly frustrating.
I didn't see Bella for the rest of the day which was disappointing but when it came to her safety I knew it would be better.
At the end of school me and my family all went straight home and confronted Carlisle about the problem.
"You just need to face this Edward, if we move then she is sure to know that there is something different about us and word might spread, you need to confront her either tonight or tomorrow."
"But Carlisle she's my 'Singer' I'm not strong enough I feel drawn to her, like its destiny."
"Yes you are Edward, you always have been and maybe you have feelings for her, she might be your soul mate Edward and as you know, anything is possible in the world just follow what you feel and you'll come to the right decision, go to her."
"Thanks Carlisle."
As I was about to step out of the door, Alice came bounding up to me and gave me the biggest hug, she was grinning from ear to ear and giggling non-stop. "Alice?"
"This is perfect, Oh I can't wait!!" Was all she said, I hated the fact that over the years she had found a way to drown out her thoughts from me by singing the most annoying songs over and over again.
She darted off but I could still hear her girly screams and squeals of joy from up the road. Hahaha.
I followed Bella's scent to a small house that was just off the main road, no neighbours so it was a peaceful quiet house. I was at the forest edge when I heard my name, "Edward" I turned and saw that it was coming from Bella's house.
I made sure the coast was clear and climbed slowly to what I presumed was Bella's window as her scent was definitely the strongest here. I slowly opened her window and was struck by the scent that was pure Bella. The thirst raged in my throat but I chose to ignore it, I would not hurt this Bella, she was too valuable to me to lose.
I made sure I was silent this was a perk of being a vampire utter silence. I peeked through the gap in the window and there she was, pure beauty fast asleep dreaming. "Vampire." I thought she had woken up but instead she was just sleep talking, I had to laugh. If I could dream it would be of Bella.
That's when I heard a car pull up in the driveway, I sniffed the air and only Bella's scent was at the house, so she lived alone and who would be calling on her at this hour in the morning? I jumped down from the window and read the persons thoughts.
'this should be easy, there's only the girl that lives here…she will be easy to take care of'
I flinched at his words if he even touched my Bella he would pay, wait my Bella, I really do love her. I was drawn from thought by the sound of the front door to her house opening. I listened for Bella's movement to see if she had heard anything but nothing.
The man's thoughts were becoming even more vulgar and I couldn't take it. I followed him silently through the front door, he was already half way up the stairs when I heard Bella's heartbeat get faster and her feet move to grab something and then her footsteps matched those of her intruder, clever girl.
She was now waiting behind her door, the intruder's hand moved to her door handle and slowly turned it, the second I heard the lock click and the door swing open I was there.
