Sorry I haven't updated in a while. I had writer's block and was procrastinating. This is kind of a 'filler chapter.' More is going to happen in the chapters to come.
Thanks so much for your Reviews, Alerts, and Favorites.
Read on my readers! :)

During study hall, I decided that this was a good time to go and get my text books from the Main Office so I wouldn't have to do it later. I asked my teacher, Mrs. Eyre if I could. She said yes, and to take my slip that had the teachers' signatures on it with me also. She wrote me a pass just in case I got caught in the hallway.
When I got to the Main Office, I saw Edward there. He was whispering with the receptionist, trying to move to another Physics class. "Please, any other class period except 5th would be fine, just not 6th." Then, like he knew I was there in the office, he turned around to look at me. He paused for a few seconds, looking at me angrily before turning back to the receptionist. "Well, I can see that there is nothing you can do. Thank you for your time." He turned on his heel and walked out of the door.
I then walked up to the receptionist, and asked for my textbooks. She handed them to me, I mumbled a thanks turning around and heading back to class.
After school ended, I raced out to my car, not wanting to get caught up in the mass rush of students leaving campus. When I arrived next to my truck, I dug through my purse and found the keys. I unlocked the door, slid in, jammed the keys into the ignition, and my truck roared to life. I slowly backed out of my space only to find a shiny silver Volvo blocking my way. I glanced out thorough my rearview mirror only to find Edward Cullen smiling at me from the drivers seat. I smiled back, confused at why he looked so happy. Just then, Eric came up to me, asking if I needed someone to show me around town. I politely turned him down, saying that I already knew my way. He looked sad, but I didn't care. When I looked back to see if Edward was still behind me, I saw him throw his head back in laughter and speed away. I closed my eyes and sighed then resumed the task of backing out and driving home.

On the way home, I remembered that Charlie didn't have enough food for both of us, so I ran by the grocery store. There I picked up anything I thought we might need. I moved my way from the front of the store, where the produce was, to the back of the store, where the cold items were. I paid and left for home.
While driving home my thoughts drifted towards Edward and Alice Cullen. Edward was nice and polite, a gentleman. But, he looked at me like he wanted to kill me. Why, I asked myself. Why did he want to kill me? He only knew me for one day for crying out loud! I wondered what I had done to make him mad at me. No, I didn't do anything to him, so what did he have against me? Nothing came to mind, except that stared at him during lunch. Maybe he didn't like people staring at him. I wondered how he would act tomorrow at school.

Bella Swan. The only thing on my mind was Bella. She was so shy and timid, yet confidant in her own special way. She was beautiful. Although, all the time I was near her, I wanted to kill her. Her blood smelled so sweet, like freesia. I had trouble concentrating on the physics lab because she was right next to me. I tried to get out of the class, but when she walked into the office, I couldn't stand it anymore.
I tried so hard during band to keep the monster inside of me hidden away, but didn't succeed. She caught the change in color of my eyes, showing that I was thirsty; thirsty for her blood, which smelled so sweet. My mouth pooled with venom when I thought about it. She saw everything, which wasn't exactly wasn't a good thing.
She was also a talented oboe player. She had been playing since she was 7 years old. That's a long time. I had been playing the piano my entire life, almost all 100 years of it. I too thought it was strange that we play with the same style, like we were meant to play together. I also thought it was cool that she wrote songs, like me.
I then remembered Alice saying something about Bella being in her dance class. On our ride home she thought, "Edward, I invited Bella to our house so we could practice our dance. Well, so I could teach the rest of the dance to her and then we could choreograph a duet. I hope you don't mind. You won't do anything stupid." So I not only would have to see Bella and smell her blood at school during the two classes we shared, but I would have to smell it at home. I guess it was an excellent thing that Bella wasn't coming over tonight.

After doing my homework, I climbed the stairs, tired. I stripped myself of my clothing and put on my pajamas. I walked to the bathroom to brush my teeth. When I was finished, I walked back to my room. I looked around and sighed. This was home now.
I slowly and tiredly paced over to my bed and wrapped my blanket around me and waited for sleep to come.
That night I dreamed of Edward Cullen and the next day at school. I slept peacefully until I felt a cold breeze across my back, coming from my window. I sat up and turned to my window. For some reason, it was wide open. I didn't remember opening it. I shrugged off my confusion and went back to sleep, ready for the next day.

I had an urge to see Bella, to see her sleep. I easily found my way to her house. I found the window to her room and jumped up and opened it. I slid into her room easily and silently, walking over to the rocking chair that was near her bed and sitting down in it. She looked peaceful. I sat there for who knows how long. She talked in her sleep. It was the most beautiful thing in the world. She worried about her mom. Every once in a while she would say my name. I laughed quietly to myself. Suddenly, her breathing started to pick up, a small signal me that she was about to wake up. I dashed out of her window as quickly as possible, not bothering to close it, just needing to get back home.
I will try to update as soon as possible. I just have to write the next chapter. I won't procrastinate.
