Chapter 7: My Love's Brain Pwns Mine
EPOV
We ended up parking next to Bella who is right now lying back on her bike with her shades on. Her top is low enough that my name on her chest is showing and I grinned proudly. Now that we are close to her bike, it really is one fine machinery. There is a red letter B in a circle with a black background on the side where the engine is supposed to be located.
"Now I know what kind of bike it is." Emmett said and we look at him in surprise "What? No one knows it? Well then if you guys watch cartoons then maybe you'll know."
"Just spit it out Emmett." Rose said all the while looking at her husbands face as if the answer will start appearing on him
"Well it's the same as Robin's "R" Cycle in that show Teen Titans but I guess hers is a "B" Cycle. She made a real life copy of it, that's really cool; I wonder if it has the same features." he got out of the car and headed over to Bella then promptly picked her up to give her a bone crushing hug. We followed and got out as well.
"Hey Emmy Bear, how would you feel if you have access to a huge indoor pool complete with toys and also a large room in my basement filled with all the video games you can imagine?" Bella asked while grinning up at him
"Seriously? You have those in your house?" She nodded and Emmett looks like its Christmas day again. He started tossing and spinning her around in happiness "You're the best sister ever!"
"I'm here to please." Bella manage to get out while still being tossed about
"Emmett be careful, you'll crush her." I said while taking her away from his arm and into my own "Good morning love; I didn't get the chance to say that earlier. You're lucky my heart doesn't work or else I would be in the hospital right now having a bypass surgery because of that stunt you pulled earlier."
"Relax Edward; I didn't even pull out my best tricks back there. And you shriek like a girl by the way, I heard you over my engine's roar and the wind."
"See I told him that Bellsy."
Jasper just said good morning and went on to inspect Bella's bike along with Rosalie. Rose asked how she acquired her bike. It turns out Bella is a prominent investor of the cartoon show and they let her be on the copyright for her to make the design in real life. Bella revealed that she also has a white Bugatti Veyron Tegra and she said she's almost done with renewing her truck. She offered for Rose to look at her vehicles and drive them if she want to before Rose could even ask. Bella said that she trust her not to hurt her babies. She also found out I peeked in her garage, she's right she really does know how to sniff out lies. I have to watch my steps around her now more than usual but on a bright note she will let me drive her cars too. Alice launched on appraisal on the ins and outs of Bella's attire and where she got it from.
"A friend of mine designs clothes for me. I always end up being one of her models when she's putting together a project since I can pull off male and female clothes. I send her my sketches too when something inspires me."
"I'll start designing clothes for you and you should model for me too. I have to meet your friend Bella; I want to see the works she did with you especially the male clothing."
"You guys will meet her today. She's running a bit late for some reason…" Bella untangle herself from me and made a quick sweep of the faculty's parking lot "hmm Kira isn't here yet too but I know he's gathering some old instruments from my house to give to the school." she mumbled while entangling herself back into my arms
"So we are meeting someone named Zachary who is related to you and two teachers who are your friends?" Alice asked exasperatedly "Bella I can't see the future properly, I feel like its broken or something. Can you please stop blocking me?"
"Yeah but only one teacher Kira Yawato, if you have the new course, General Arts then he's the instructor." we nodded stating we all have the class and she groaned for some reason "Hela is a friend I haven't seen in a long time same with Kira and they decided to join me in the "joys" of high school. And Alice, I stopped blocking you since I parked here."
"I think I can't see your friends Bella except Zachary who kind of looks like you. The other two is invisible in my vision but I can see rather hear us meeting them in a couple of minutes. Anyway what's up with the people here they're treating us like we have the plague…well they did that too before but now it's…more"
"There's nothing unusual in their thoughts just the predictable gossips about us and Bella and my relationship. They seem cautious…?"
"That's probably because of me. I lost my patience on Mike. He was being a pest more than usual and was hitting on Hela and me at the same time and wouldn't leave us alone. So I kinda…sorta threatened bodily harm on him if he or anyone tries to bother us again." Bella said sheepishly "The boy is really thick you know, he never get the message and still try sometimes."
Suddenly two vehicles arrived; a 2009 H1 Alpha Hummer entered the car park and took up the two spaces next to Bella. The other vehicle is a McLaren F1 and it went to park to the faculty's side of the lot. I guess Bella's friends arrived. A black haired girl with coal eyes emerged from the driver side of the Hummer. A boy with dull green eyes and the same shade of Bella's brown hair came from the other side. They both look very familiar.
"Hey girly, I didn't know you shipped my Hummer here too." Bella called out
"Wow that monster is yours Bella? Can I drive it sometime please?" Emmett asked
"Sure Emm." Bella smiled at him
"Sorry Belle we don't have a large vehicle to transport all this instruments so I called in some favors and had this baby of yours ship here overnight." the girl I am assuming is Hela said over her shoulder while she fixed something inside the Hummer. Then I realized something…
"Her mind has no thoughts just random snippets of music." I notified the others. I tried to listen towards the teacher's parking lot. "The teacher is the same as well."
"Their emotion is fine with me." Jasper stated
"See, I'm not the only one who has a weird mind Edward."
"You sure know how to find them love."
When the two reached us Bella said "Guys this is Hela Yawato and that guy is Zachary Carreau or just Zach. The guy over there at the teacher's car park rummaging inside the McLaren is Kira." then she let us introduced ourselves and we said our pleasantries. Zach handed her a notebook that saids Bella's Music.
"We picked out the songs we're going to perform at lunch. Kira said that sky is the limits so we decided on pieces that will just stun the crowd and for that to happen, you need to participate. I don't know how you want to play it. Do you want me to sing and you act it out with Hela or you sing and act it solo around us."
"One Wish is about reminiscing lost love and wishing for it to be back. The song Papers is about divorce. Trading Places is about trading roles during sex. Honestly I have more than one notebook filled with different genres of songs and you chose these three R&B songs?" Bella asked raising an eyebrow while looking through her works
"Well Kira told us its R&B theme today and asked all of us to go out of our comfort zone so…" Zach shrugged
"Wait, what are you guys talking about?" Emmett ask
"Some of us from General Arts volunteered to perform during lunch. Since its General Arts, the performance varies on different kinds of art. The three of us always do music and dance, a bit of acting is thrown into the mix too. If other groups aren't ready to perform then we cover for them since we can perform at any given time." Hela explained
"Oooh…I can't wait to watch you guys." Alice said excitedly
A stunningly looking tall man with waist length jet black hair that is swept back and wearing a suit approached us and join in our group. I realized that this man is one of the people in Vivian and Bella's wedding day. In fact, he was dressed as a best man. Now I know why Hela looks familiar, she was the young bridesmaid girl standing next to the best man. And Zach…he looks like Bella as a male except he's older and have green eyes.
Bella tossed her notebook to the man and grabbed Hela possessively. I started to growl then stopped myself only resulting in a low vampire pitch growl. My siblings look at me in confusion.
"Hiya Kira, we're performing the booked mark ones there. I'm going to sing and I need to borrow your lovely wife here for the last song." Bella said "We're going to try to keep it PG so don't worry about us having hot and wild impromptu monkey sex during lunch in front of everyone." she laughed. Oh Hela is already married; I have nothing to worry and to be jealous about then. Wait, she's married to a teacher? Apparently I'm not the only one taken aback; my siblings' minds are running on the similar track as I am.
"Just don't steal her Carreau." Kira laughed then sobered up as he turns to look at my sibling and me "Ah I see these friends of yours are to be the new students or rather just returning. I already look at all of your files. My name is Yawato Kira. Call me either by my first or last name, it doesn't matter. I want my students to be comfortable. It is a pleasure to meet all of you"
We said our pleasantries but kept looking back and forth from Hela to him.
"I should get ready for my first block. I'll have one of the custodians help bring the instruments in before our block." he noticed us staring at him and his wife and looking confused "Bella will explain." is all he said then he turned and walk towards the other side of the school where the art classes are.
Bella went back into my arms and said "Ask away guys we have 15 minutes before the bell rings."
"Why did he call you Carreau? And how is he married to a student?" I asked in behalf of my siblings
"Carreau is from my mother's side of the family. I don't carry the Swan name…usually. This is the longest time I have to use it in public. Zach over there carries the Swan name all the time but he somehow messed up when enrolling. As for the other question, Hela will explain."
"Alright then, I was born to a…rather large family who are centered on the Japanese culture. We are somewhat prominent in Tokyo and I am the heir. My family wanted to secure my future and wanted a suitable partner for me. I was five years old but I'm like Bella in a way that we never experienced childhood, we are adults from the get go. So I was determined to find a husband on my own. I wasn't looking for love, just cold hard business just as I was raised. I stumbled upon a newly turned twenty year old and UT professor Kira sitting on a bench at a park. His family isn't as prominent as mine but they expect the same thing from him as my family from me, a spouse. He is never into the high social life, he love to do ordinary things in public like teaching. Upon the moment I saw him, I just knew he would he the one to stand next to me for the rest of my life. So I proposed, he considered it for about a week before he accepted. We were married soon after. We consummated our marriage when I reached the legal age so don't be horrified." Hela too a deep breathe from her long explanation
"Technically she doesn't need to be attending school. She has a degree already but I think she just want to stir up commotion here. Since teacher and student relationship, especially with such a wide age gap, isn't common here as it is in Japan." Bella added
"Damn that's hot." Emmett said then added in vampire pitch "We should try to role play that out next time we move Rosie" Rose liked the idea and nodded. Great…we're going to suffer more gossip on the next place we move into.
"Hey you don't need to be in school too Belle. For an eighteen year old you have more degrees than most people in their 30s." Hela retorted back
"Which I kind of regret since I'm going to bore my ass off after High School, I didn't even bother filling out college applications and the teachers are bothering me about it. I mean how do I explain that I have higher education than they do?"
As I said before my sister is cool – Emmett and Alice thought happily
I wonder if she went into mechanics since she knows a lot about it, she must have – Rose
Interesting…I'll test Bella's intellect later on chess – Jasper
Again, I am glad I won't be alone suffering all the surprises Bella throws out even though my brain is most likely to suffer more than theirs. I'm proud that I have such an intelligent soul mate. I'm getting used to calling her as such and I'm trying to embrace the fact that I have a soul. I frown; Bella should still consider college after high school. If she's still adamant on changing, then it's going to be a boring eternal life.
"Love you should consider college with me. It would be bearable to know you're near me than far away. Maybe you can try something new. What college did you attend before?" I said trying to dazzle her
Hela and Zach laughed out loud and we look at them questioningly. They sobered up and Hela explained.
"You mean t ask how many colleges she attended before not what. She started when she was four in Juilliard and graduated summa cum-laude with a doctorate of music degree by age seven. She composed and performed in the Philharmonics and even taught while she was there. It was very hush-hush, so no publicity."
"Holy shit! Eddie bro she beat you in music." My siblings seem to be glad that someone is better than me on something I am passionate about. Figures…
"Not true Emm. Edward is a great pianist." Bella rebuts and my dead heart swelled
"You're too modest right now my love, you really were serious when you said you can boast for a couple of weeks. I am humble with that compliment love especially when it's coming from you." I really and truly am. I feel insignificant compared to Bella right now. Maybe I shouldn't have bragged before now I'm at the opposite side of the playing field. Karma bites.
Now Zach is continuing where Hela left off "Let's see right after Juilliard she got her D.O. / M.D. using four Ivy League Colleges since she moved a lot and they are Harvard, Dartmouth, Princeton, and Yale. She taught music while she was in Harvard and Dartmouth. Hela continue please."
"She got her DTech from MIT during her Harvard years since both schools are in MA. She used Oxford and Cambridge to get her Masters in literature. She finished all that by age fifteen…and I don't know after that. Zach?"
"Well I don't know what she was majoring in but she was enrolled in University of Chicago before she got her amnesia." Zach finishes
My siblings and I are astounded. Then the questions came flying…
"How did you stay away from the media?" – Jasper
"How could you have finished all those in such short time?" - Rose
"Wow, I didn't think someone can beat the all skillful and knowing Eddie boy." That's not really a question but it's Emmett…we just can't do anything about him. Alice is being quiet and trying to see the future in vain. Bella probably started blocking her again.
"You stayed in Chicago?" Ok, that's all I manage to get out. My brain is completely and utterly fried from the – how does Emmett puts it…awesomeness – that is my Bella. I know I said that I love learning new things about my love but this is taking a toll on my mentality. And I have how many more days of this? Oh yeah, she said a couple of weeks. I know I have not been the purest of being but God please help my brain survive this.
"I forge my identity every time I finish a degree which definitely helped. Bribing the institute in regards to my privacy helped too and high connections in the media of course. I finished all those degrees in such a short time because having an astronomical IQ can really rock out high pretentious universities. And I have places all over since I travelled a lot and decided to stay at the one in Chicago" Bella explained nonchalantly
I am very much ecstatic that Bella is familiar with my hometown/city. "Both of us should go there one day." I whisper in her ear
"Just tell me when beloved." she whispered back. My heart feels like it grown wings and is flying around in my chest. She called me beloved; I can't remember a time other than today where she refer to me any other name than Edward.
"I see. That really took some planning. And…can we talk later about your forgery skills later." Jasper said and added in vampire pitch "That way we don't have to get our documents from Jenks and his successors and I won't need to scare them to keep their mouth shut about our never aging bodies. On another note, Bella has such high intellect now that she is human. How in the seven hell is she going to be once she's turned?"
"Awesome I have a really cool sister and she's a genius too." Emmett said then pitched in "She's going to be a super genius when she's turned. I'm going to say it again dude…immortalize."
"She's my sister too Emmett and best friend." Alice piped in
"This is all fun and all but guys we have five minutes till first bell. I suggest we hurry our ass up." Bella said and we went to our homeroom.
End Chapter 7…TBC…
I know Renee's maiden name is Higginbotham but I needed to change it to something that describes Bella. Carreau is a demon-(ology) name meaning mercilessness. A short Charlie POV next IF I can fit it there.
Should I wait till the fic is done berfore correcting mistake on previous chapters or just do it now? Click the green button and review please. People stopped in and said "hi" last chapter… :)
