A/N: Hello! And my back feels....well, not BETTER, but.....better. If that makes any sense at all.

Disclaimer: Yes, I stuck some of Stephenie's work (from Twilight - page 86/87) in here. And I might add little portions of the book in here again. But I DO NOT IN ANY WAY claim to own twilight. That is ALL Stephenie Meyer. I had NOTHING to do with that.

Chapter 7: There's something strange going on in this town....

Fourth hour. Of the day. Number 4. Num ro quatre. Period four. Class number four. Fourth desk I've sat at today. Four hours of my life I've just wasted. Fo- Sorry. Can you tell I'm bored? And in 4th hour? Wow, good for you, you're perceptive. French(Yes, I know Bella takes Spanish, but as I will probably add some French words in here, I figured she could take French instead...). Jessica is in this class with me. And soon I've got lunch. I'm not so hungry though..... Oh well. I'll just get water today.

"Bella?" Jess asked, snapping me out of my thoughts.

"Yeah Jess?" Jeez this day is going slow. Almost the end of this class though. Then lunch.

"Are you doing anything this weekend?"

"I don't know....maybe." I said, grinning at my descriptiveness.

"Nice Bella, real ni-" Jessica got cut off by the bell.

We walked to the cafeteria in silence, Jessica still iritated at the bell for interupting. The lunch line was pretty empty as we made our way through it, a strange twist to the usually bustling line. Well, as busy of a line as you can have with 358 students in a school.

I did my daily routine of checking the Cullen table and looked away. All was norma-- wait. I glanced back. Four people. Edward was gone. I sighed and sat down.

"Edward Cullen is staring at you again." Jessica said.

My head snapped up. I followed her gaze to see Edward, smiling crookedly, staring at me from an empty table across the cafeteria from where he usually sat. Once he'd caught my eye, he raised one hand and motioned with his index finger for me to join him. As I stared in disbelief, he winked.

"Does he mean you?" Jessica asked with insulting astonishment in her voice. Grrrr. Dumb Jessica, being surprised that someone like him actually likes me. Although, I'm just as miffed.

"Maybe he needs help with his biology homework. Um, I'd better go see what he wants." I said, getting up from the table and walking over to him. I sat down, pretending I wasn't as nervous and surprised as I actually was.

We talked for a few minutes, and I could tell my friends' gazes burning holes in my back. Suddenly the table was talking.

"The table you usually sit at is jealous. Ha! Oh and she says your friends keep talking about you. What in the world are you going to tell them??" The table asked gleefully.

"Crap," I said, too quiet for any humans to hear. Wait....why am I not regarding myself as a human? Witches ARE human, aren't they?

"What was that?" Edward asked, sounding altogether too innocent. Er....I THOUGHT I'd said it quietly.

"Nothing, nothing, not a thing!" I looked at the clock. "AH! We're gonna be late for class!"

"I'm not going to class today. Sometimes skipping can be healthy."

"Suit yourself," I said, running out of the cafeteria to make it on time.

When I got there, I smelled blood. Uh-oh, I though to myself.

"Mr. Banner? Can I be excused? I don't feel well."

"Sure Miss Swan, feel better tomorrow."

I bolted out the door and went to the office to sign myself out. Whew, thank goodness! No blood! But then....what's that smell?

There were drops of blood leading out to the parking lot. Thats when I saw....A MAN! He was...well, he was beautiful. Not EDWARD, but beautiful all the same. Hang on, there was someone with him. A girl. She was only a little kid. Somewhere around the age of 10 or 11.

The man...boy--he was only...18 maybe-- was bent over the girls neck. She was unconscious. And....there was something red on her neck!

I ran back into the school, quietly of course, and into a bathroom to wait until they were gone. I know it's.....not good to not report it, but....the guy was dangerous. And I didn't want to get hurt. I'll tell Charlie, if he says something about the girl.

Hoping they were gone, I peeked outside and dashed to my truck. Obviously, I went straight home.

So.....PLEASE TELL ME IF YOU LIKE IT OR NOT! Oh, and the little girl will need a name. Poll on my profile to pick one! Anyway, R&R please please please! Anyone have any constructive criticism?
