Note : Thanks sar-star who's the first to review and others who alert/favourite it. Well, this chapter is really short, sorry. I was rushing to post it anyway.
"Hmm… That guy over there," he said while sort of pointing his fingers at this rather cute guy.
He had straight nose, sexy lips and high cheekbones. He was really gorgeous, even for a human. I thought I stared at him for quite a while, because Emmett nudged me, "Girl, did you just fall in love with him?"
I glared at him, not sure whether I should be amused or mad.
Edward cleared his throat, "He likes you Olivia, but he doesn't dare to come near you or look at you. It seems that many girls are after him, and he's afraid that if they know about it…The girls will…"
"The girls will what?" asked Rosalie.
"They will… well… how should I put it. They will harm you. You know, a girl fight? A cat fight?" he said, looking concern.
I could utter no words. Impossible, he should fall for Ness first. Come on, look at Ness, she's so graceful and charming.
"Just like Bella, you can't see much of yourself don't you Olivia? He thinks you're perfect and elegant in every way." Edward sighed.
"No way those girls are gonna lay their fingers on my baby." Emmett said furiously. Rosalie nodded her head in agreement.
"Calm down Em and Rose. They will never ever get to hurt Olivia just because some guy fell in love with her." Said Jasper.
"That's right! Don't you forget Auntie Alice can see the future, and they'd worry about themselves first. We could easily snap their neck less than a second." Ness smirked.
While they are talking about whether I will fall for him, I secretly took another glance at this guy. He was talking with his friends and then my eyes fell upon the crooked smile of his, even lovelier than Edward's.
Edward raised his eyebrows, "Are you sure?" he smiled his signature crooked smile, hoping that I would say no.
I just grinned sheepishly and snatched his lunch, since he wasnt eating anyway.
The bell rang and lunch ended. "See you after school." said Alice. In return, Ness and I waved our byes.
We entered our next class, Chemistry. Unfortunately, our teacher, Mrs. Elizabeth Cannon, wanted both of us to introduce ourselves.
As much as I hated attention, I easily pulled it off. "Hi my name is Olivia Hale, and I came from Atlanta. I don't really know that much about myself, but one thing's for sure, I'm a mystery to many people. Thanks."
I didn't know what got into me for me to have blurted out those words. It wasn't like me to reveal so much of myself. Everyone clapped but from the corner of my eyes, I caught sight of a bunch of girls rolling their eyes in disgust. Having reminded myself that I didn't care, I forced a smile.
Then Mrs. Cannon pointed at the back table which was empty and told me to have a seat.
Yes! I get to sit with Ness again.
When I sat down, a guy knocked on the door, interrupting Ness.
He was the cute guy from the cafeteria, why is he here?
"Sorry Mrs. Cannon, I was having a stomach upset."
"You're forgiven, Mr. Eastwood. If you may, we have a new girl here who ought to begin her introduction."
He mouthed a sorry to Ness and walked towards me.
Glancing around, I realized the class had 2 empty spaces left. One on my left and one at the table to my right.
Oh no! Please don't tell me this is his seat.
My heart raced as he edged closer and closer. He settled down and looked at me.
I acted normal and pretended to continue staring at Ness, as if I was concentrating on what she was about to say.
I looked around and saw plenty of amazed looks on the guys' faces. Ness's pretty, long, fair legs were what they were concentrating on, their gaze unbroken. Even without Edward's ability to read people's mind, I could easily know what was playing in their minds.
Olivia, remember to tell Ness to stop wearing short white, almost see-through skirts.
"Shallow. Idiots." I moaned.
When I was making funny faces to myself and muttering so low that I was pretty sure a human couldn't hear, I heard slight giggles from my left. He was staring and laughing at me.
"Excuse me?" I asked in a tone that suggested anger.
"I'm sorry. I… I didn't mean to stare at you, but your facial expression was really hilarious." He said.
"Oh really…" I rolled my eyes.
Olivia, don't fall for him. You won't want yourself to be found dead the next morning.
"I'm serious. Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm William Eastwood. You are?" he held out his hands, suggesting his intention of making friends.
I shook his hand, "I'm Olivia Hale."
"Olivia, what an elegant name. Chosen because of the color of your eyes, I suppose?"
"Yeah, that was why my Momma named me that."
His hair was shaggy, and light blonde, a shade lighter than Jasper's. All of a sudden, my eyes found their way onto his mesmerizing emerald green eyes. I held his gaze a tad bit too long and when he finally turned away, I felt color creeping into my cheeks.
But then, he noticed my ring finger, the diamond ring.
"You're… Erm… You're engaged?" he asked, his face as white as paper.
"Actually, I'm not so sure. I lost my memory and this was with me when I was awake." I smiled.
Many thanks to my friend who helped me edit it. You know who you are. Haha. And again , please do review. XD
