Hey everyone!! Sooo like I said this chapter will be in Edward's point of view. Please tell me how it turns out!!!! Thanks!
This girl… this, human girl. She smelled delectable. I could not even begin to compare what her blood smelled like to anything as sweet as this! It was amazing. It was like a drug. Well not in that sense, but truly, she amazed me. And I had to stay away from her. I couldn't risk slipping up now. After all our family has been put through just to be here. All the lies we had to tell. I was sitting at my lab table. When I say my lab table I mean mine. Nobody dared ever sit next to me. They were frightened of me. Not that I tried to be scary, it just sort of came with what I am. I was watching her from across the room. Newton was trying to be all cool. He was failing miserably. He was stuttering and tripping over his words. I could have laughed. And then he had to make a fool out of himself and run into somebody. Then I just put my head down and let out a chuckle. I shook my head and looked up. I was going to read her thoughts to see if she was actually interested in someone like Newton. I was concentrating but I couldn't hear anything! What the hell is going on!! Why can't I hear her thoughts?? This is crazy I've never seen anyone quite so remarkable. I cocked my head in amazement. This girl had only been here one day and already she was blowing me away. I'd been here for two years and nobody had come anywhere close.
I looked up again and realized she was walking my way. I froze up. What are you doing idiot!? I thought to myself. This was going to be a real test on my self control. She sat down next to me after asking if she could. I had said nothing for fear of what would come out of my mouth. I scooted as far away as possible. I peeked out of the corner of my eye to see that she was staring at me, her face wide with horror as if she'd done something wrong. Her eyes held sadness in them, but she refused to let that show. She was strong and she would get over it. Humans were so predictable. I spaced out during the teacher's lecture. Something about a lab we were going to do. As soon as the bell had rung, I was out of there. If I was in that class for a moment longer I would have taken her there in front of everyone. I practically ran out of the classroom. I heard footsteps behind me and that powerful sent overcame my nose. Why couldn't she just stay away!? I could tell she was getting closer and when she grabbed me, I shuddered.
"Hey your Edward right? Her sweet voice filled my ears and I was speechless and she continued, annoyed. "Well in case you didn't catch the Mike show I'm Bella." She paused again, obviously waiting for an answer. Out of the corner of me eye, I saw Alice looking at me with amusement in her face. Bella continued, even though I wasn't saying anything. "Hey what's your problem? I am new here and I am trying to meet new people, even if it includes people like you!" her sudden outburst of anger surprised me, but I couldn't let her see it. I still couldn't believe she would talk to me in such a manner. Well I could of course, the way I was treating her and I know that I wasn't being the gentlemen Carlisle wanted me to be, but I couldn't risk getting to close to her.
"Hey are you even listening? I'm trying to be nice here could you at least say something?" I opened my mouth to say something. I had two options here. One: be nice to her and become friends, or more acquaintances. Or there was option two which was: push her away and save her all of the trouble that came with being my friend. I decided on option two. It would be better and safer for the both of us. I took a deep breath and then began.
"Go away." I stated flatly. Her eyes flickered with surprise and shock as she struggled to find the words to say.
"Excuse me?" she asked. I sighed I had hoped it wouldn't come to this. I had to push her away though.
"Can you hear correctly? I said go away, leave me alone." I kept up the same monotone voice and was hoping she'd just leave. She looked really hurt and for some reason, this upset me. It wasn't like me to fawn over a girl, especially a human for crying out loud. In that instant though I realized that if she came back to me, I probably wouldn't be able to stay away. Bella stood her ground anyway.
"What if I don't want to go away?" she asked and I was surprised that she would be as brave as to stand up to me in a way no one had ever before. I realized that she wasn't gong to leave so I had to do it for her. I really didn't want to do this but she was so damn stubborn that I had no other choice.
"Fine then I'll save you the trouble." I turned on my heel and walked away, hoping she wouldn't follow me. It was all I could do to try and resist her blood and that fight wasn't going so well right now. I heard her footsteps and heard that they were going away from me. I inhaled deeply and let it out slowly. No need to fight anymore.
Alice came into step beside me. She was listening to everything.
"God Edward could you have been any meaner? The poor girl looked like she was about to cry." I wasn't in the mood to deal with this right now so I kept walking, hoping she'd get the hint. But of course, Alice being Alice she wouldn't go away! She stepped in front of me and refused to move. I growled but she still wouldn't budge.
"Edward you need to go hunting soon." She stated.
"Yea I know Alice thanks for the heads up." I walked around her and tried to get to my next class, which unfortunately was math. Not that I didn't get anything, I was the smartest in my class, but I had Alice in it too which meant she'd be following me whether I wanted her to or not. She followed silently behind me as we approached the classroom. When we sat down in class I read Alice's thoughts.
Edward, I know you're listening. I can see it on your face. Anyway that Bella girl, she seems pretty interesting. Maybe you should talk to her; you know apologize for being so rude earlier. I know you have the control Edward so stop fooling yourself into thinking you don't. Ask her out or something. I know you can't hear her thoughts and that is really remarkable. I also know you really like her, so stop feeling sorry for yourself and do something about it!
I stopped listening and looked over to see her giving me an encouraging look. I thought for a moment then decided it would try. After all Alice was right and I did really like her. She amazed me to no end and I wanted to get to know her. I was contemplating my apology when the thought struck me; this was all going to go horribly, horribly wrong.
Dun dun dunnnnn. So Edward has decided to ask out Bella Swan. Humm I wonder how the date is gong to go and where he's going to take her. Update coming soon. Please review!!
