I won't be able to update for a while, Summer band starts and it is from one to nine everyday. I have chapter 8 written so I may post that tonight. I will post whenever I get the littlest spec of time. I promise.
Chapter 7
When I went down stairs in the morning about to leave for school I realized it was snowing. I loved the snow, so did Emmet and Edward this meant a snowball fight later. Alice greeted me by kissing me lightly on the cheek and the taking my hand to lead me to Edwards Volvo.
"I'm perfectly capable of walking to the car myself" I told her
"Yea right, I'm not letting you out of my sight for any longer than I have to" she disagreed with me.
She still didn't believe that I wasn't going to leave again. In the time I was gone it was so unbearable to be with out her I don't think I could handle it again. I wasn't going anywhere even if Edward threatened to jump off a cliff.
Once we all got into the car Edward began to drive, going 60 in thirty seconds flat.
"Edward" Alice spoke in a whisper
"You really should slow down. We can still get a ticket you know" She sniggered.
She knew no cop would be able to catch us, let alone give us a ticket. We pulled into the parking lot and got out of the car. Alice immediately took hold of my hand, just as she did everyday. Rosalie did the same thing to Emmet. If they didn't well let's just say it wouldn't end well. As usual everybody stopped and stared as we made our way to our classes. We were used to this. To humans we were dazzling. We got to the spot where Emmet, Rosalie and I had to split up from Edward and Alice. The three of us were pretending to be seniors and Edward and Alice were juniors.
"Alice I will see you at lunch I promise. Besides Rosalie and Emmet won't let me go anywhere" I smiled and kissed her goodbye.
She let go of my hand and walked over to Edward who was waiting patiently while we said our goodbyes. I walked through the halls with Rosalie and Emmet until we got to Rose's English class. I stood off to the side and waited for them to be done with their goodbyes. When they were done Emmet came over to me and we walked to gym.
"So why did you and Alice go up so early last night?" He asked
"She wanted to talk to me. She made me feel guilty about leaving her to bring Edward home. She accused me of being jealous, which I guess I kind of was, but anyway we just talked" I told him.
It wasn't a lie, but it wasn't the total truth either. It was none of his business what Alice and I really talked about, although I had a feeling that was the furthest thing from his mind.
"Really that's all you guys did?" He asked, truly curious now.
"Yea that's all we did" I told him.
We changed into our gym clothes. We were playing volleyball, a very boring sport. Emmet was big on the whole competition thing even though most of the kids in our class couldn't care less about gym. He always played his best and was constantly asked by the coach to join every sport the school offered.
"You know Cullen" she would Say "We could really use you on the basketball team"
Or in the spring she would say "We could really use you on the baseball team. Are you sure you don't have time?"
Every time she suggested this Emmet would come up with some excuse why he couldn't join the teams. The real reason is if we tried to play basketball with the humans the court would never survive. As for baseball, one swing of the bat and we would deafen the entire crowd. When the bell finally rang we couldn't get out of there fast enough. We walked down the hall ready to meet up with Rosalie for Spanish. Taking all of these classes was just a formality. I could recite everything we learned in my sleep if I slept, having taken the classes at least three times each.
The classes dragged on and finally the bell rang for lunch to start. I met up with Rosalie and Emmet on the way to lunch. We had to walk outside to get to the cafeteria. To my delight it was still snowing. I picked up snow off the ground and lobbed a snowball at Emmet. He returned fire missing me by a foot hitting Rosalie.
"Hey watch it" she hissed
She walked faster to get out of the line of fire. I picked up some more snow and threw another snowball at Emmet. Before he could pick up more snow a teacher walked by and began yelling.
"Excuse me, I believe throwing snow is against the school rules" he told us. It was more directed at me than Emmet.
"Sorry sir we will just be going" We sniggered as we left.
I pulled open the doors to the cafeteria where we got in line to buy food. The food was merely a prop although I'm sure some one in this lousy school was smart enough to realize we didn't eat any of it, ever.
"Hmmmm" I acted as if I couldn't decide what to get
"Emmet should I get an apple or just some celery today" I asked him smiling
"I don't know I think maybe just the celery would help maintain your figure" he laughed at his own answer
"Would you two stop being so childish and come on already" Rosalie yelled at us.
We made our way to the table and sat down. Edward was soaked too.
"What happened to you? I asked him curious how he was the only one soaked but Alice was completely dry.
"Alice saw that once I opened the door a huge chunk of snow was going to fall. She thought it would be funny if she didn't warn me." He said.
Alice smiled at me. I kissed her.
"Long time no see" she said as I pulled away
"Very long time" I told her.
Emmet started shaking his head like a dog to get all the water off. Rosalie and Alice leaned away but couldn't help laughing like the rest of us. It was nice to mess around with nothing to worry about. I wasn't hungry and neither were my siblings. I was with Alice and she was happy again. Everything was back to normal. Except for the fact that Edward kept turning and staring at the new girl.
"She's way out of your league" I told him pulling him back to our world.
"What? Oh her? There is something weird about her. I can't seem to get a hold on her thoughts. I can't read them and its making me nervous" he whispered so only Alice and I could hear.
"Edward I wouldn't dwell on it too much, besides what makes her so special that you have to know her thoughts" Alice asked him
"I don't know she is so quite, unlike Jessica who speaks her every thought anyway. It's just bothering me that I don't know what she is thinking." He shrugged.
Alice and I turned back to our previous conversation. Leaving Edward to think for himself. I didn't think it was weird that he couldn't hear her thoughts, but just like Alice said I wasn't going to dwell on it until it caused a real problem.
