"Wecome to Forks!" he said "Thank you" i said stupidly, he looked surprised "You make it sound like, i'm the first person thats talked to you all day" he laughed. He didn't know how right he was. I don't know maybe i'll just tell him that he really is the first person thats talked to me all day, no that will make me sound like a loser, shit, this was confusing. "Actually, you are the first person thats talked to me" I finished lamely. Why, oh why didn't I sound like my smart ass, self right now? "Nobody talked to you..At all?" "Nope,...Oh Miss. Sanders talked to me but she kind of had to. She just seemed to hate me like all of the other kids, or maybe she was preoccupied with getting my brothers attention?" Oh no I was saying my thoughts out loud, now i sound like a complete idiot. Shit!..shit!..shit! now hes probably going to hate me like the rest of the school, because I sound like and complete nutcase!
"I understand how you feel" he whispered, smiling sadly "But, I don't understand why they wouldn't talk to you, you're beautiful!" He broke off, embarrest. Oh my goth!, did he just say I was beautiful? "That is the nicest thing anybody has ever said to me" he looked up smiling that perfect smile again clearly happy that he flattered me. Note to self: Keep Alex smiling! "May I ask you a question?" I wanted to know why the school hates me! "Yes" "Well, I was wondering why they won't talk to me" his smile was sad again as he said this "Well, they all seem to not like me because, i'm different from all of them. They all shop at Hollister while I shop a Hot Topic, They listen to fake singer's pop music while I listen to Emo, do you see why? Its rediculous, I know, but since they saw that you dressed different they didn't even both to give you a chance and I'm sorry!" he looked so sad, and lonely it was awful. " We will be outcasts together!" I said to him, again, he looked up and smiled.
At the end of the period was lunch, I had the same butterflys as this morning, I wasn't looking forward to lunch but I was looking forward to seeing Ian and Wes. Alex walked me to lunch then he turned to me, I think he was nervous about somthing but I couln't imagine what it could be about "Evelyn, would you like to sit with me today?" he said quickly. "Yes, of coarse i'll sit with you" we stood there for a minute smiling at each other, then, like any gentleman should, opened the door for me. My insides were freaking upside down at this point. What was wrong with me today "Thank you very much" I said, walking in to the stuffy caffeteria. I looked around the room for my brothers, as soon as I spotted them, they spotted me. Waving they made thier way over to us, giving me wierd looks as soon as they saw Alex. "Hi, guys!" I said when they reached us "Hi" they answered in unison. "Arn't you going to introduce us to your friend?" Wes asked, still giving me that wierd look "Oh, yeah Ian, Wes this is my new friend Alex" i trailed off, realizing that I didn't know his last name "Conner...Alex Conner" Alex said shaking each of my brothers hands "Alex, these are my brothes Ian, and Wes Cul.." I trailed off. Oh no it was happening, I felt dizzy, and I couldn't breath, It was sucking me in. I saw nothing but black, Then a hospictal room, and Alex was sitting on the bed, wearing a hospital gown, waiting for someone I guessed. An older women was sitting next to him, in the chair, she looked kind of like alex only her eyes were green insted of his deep grey ones, His mother.
I snapped out of it and was consince again, but insted of being in the cafeteria I was on a cot, in the nurse's office. Ian, Wes, Alex, and the grandmotherly nurse were all looking down at me, then I remembered my vision. "Alex, were you in the hospital recently?" I asked urgently " Yeah, Why?" he asked, puzzled. Shoot! now i'm going to have to lie. " Oh, no reason I was just wondering." "Oh, okay then" he said still confused, god he was cute! " What happened?" I asked pretending to be muddled. "Well, dear you seemed to have blacked out in the cafeteria." "Oh, okay" i said laying my head back down and closing my eyes. My visions always made me exhasted "Do you still feel faint?" asked Alex, worried. "No, just tierd" I answered truthfully, I smiled up at his gorgeous face. Out of the corner of my eye I could see Wes and Ian share that same, wierd look they gave me before. " We can drive her home" came the voice of my brother Ian "yes, I think that would be best" said the old nurse. I didn't want to leave Alex, but I had to figure out why he was recently in the hospital, and I had to punch my brothers for those wierd looks they've been giving me.
When I could stand I said my goodbyes to Alex and thank yous to the nurse. Ian and Wes waited until we were out of earshoot before they asked the questions that I didn't want to answer. "First of all, how are you feeling, really?" asked Wes, using his big brother being over protective voice. "And what was your vision about?" Ian added I sighed and looked out the window, right now it was drizzling. "I feel fine" I said, then gave a full description of my vision. My vampire power was seeing the past, and Alex must have been in the hospital recently because, in that vision he didn't look any younger than he was now. After clarifying that i was okay, at least 20,000 times, Ian immediately pushed the questions about Alex and if i liked him, liked him. I hated being the only girl sometimes.
Back at the house I was interigated by my Dad, my Mom, Carlisle, Esme, and Alice. after i told every little detail of the vision, they all relaxed, apperently they thought this was nothing. This is not nothing! Alex was in the hospital! Why was my poor, lonely gothic mate in the hospital? Later that night Alice, Rosalie, Esme, my Mom , and Me were left alone for girl time. Normally, i hated girl time, with the bad chick flicks, and pink lip gloss, and boy talk, but this was an emergency! So for the first time in 16 years I opened my ears to the girl world, and the women in my family constently reassured me that Alex indeed liked me.
