Part 2 of 3
Chapter 11
Bella POV
I looked out the window to find Edward leaning against his silver Volvo, waiting for me. When he say me he smiled and waved for me to come down. I bolted down the stairs and flung open the door to see my Edward.
He was wearing a warm brown Sweater and his usual deep black jeans. He looked at me and then smiled. "We match."
I then took accord to what I was wearing. I had on a brown sweater too, but with khaki pants. I looked up to see his out stretch hand, and gladly took it.
He held open the door for me as I got in before going to the driver side and getting in. He grabbed my hand again before starting the car.
The whole drive to the school, he never let go of my hand, which was fine by me. When we pulled up in the parking lot, my stomach knotted. Edward saw my resistance and squeezed my hand reassuringly.
Edward got out of the car first, nothing out of the ordinary. But when he came over to the passenger side, curious eyes looked to see who would come out. Taking a deep breath, I scurried out of the car.
I looked into the crowd of people who's eyes were wide open with shock. I looked to the faces of my friends: Angela was grinning from ear to ear; Alice, Rosalie, Jasper, and Emmett were talking casually. Alice must have filled them in. I turned to look at Mike and Eric who were glaring at Edward. Huh? I would have to ask them later about it.
Their eyes grew even wider when Edward snaked his arm around my waist, pulling me tight against him.
I looked into the crowd again to see an unfamiliar blond boy. His hair was about shoulder length and the sleeves to his shirt were cut off. He was looking at me curiously and, when his attention turned to Edward, he broke out into a big smile. Maybe they knew each other.
Edward and I walked into the building with a seven on it. Me and Edward didn't have first period together so he just walked me to class. I reached up on my toes and lightly kissed him on the lips. I pulled back, said "Bye!" and walked into my classroom.
I sat alone in the back so it surprised me when I saw the blond boy from earlier sitting at my table. I didn't pay any attention to him as I took out my homework.
"Hello. I'm James Nomad." He said formally.
I decided to be nice too. "Bella Swan."
I thought that was going to be the last interaction we were going to have but it turns out I was wrong. "Your Edward Cullen's girlfriend, correct?"
Did he not know he was annoying me? "Yeah. Do you know him?"
He smiled widely and replied. "Old friends."
Thankfully the teacher decided at that moment to start the lesson. Throughout first period, James' eyes never left me, even though I never looked his way. When I caught him staring, he didn't apologize or look away, but he kept his gaze.
I dashed out the door as soon as the bell rang. When I saw Edward I had a split-decision. I didn't know if it was from James' stares or being happy to see Edward, but I ran up and kissed him. And it was no peck but I really kissed him, and he kissed me back just as eagerly.
"What was that for?" He asked when we broke away.
I shrugged. "I just missed you."
His tone turned light, teasing. "What if I missed you?"
I pretended to think about it. "Well...maybe you could-" I was cut off my Edward's lips. I kissed him back before I pulled back, too soon for either of us. He went to kiss me again before I stopped him. "We need to get to class." When he saw that I was teasing, his expression changed from hurt to playful.
I grabbed his hand and we walked to our next class together, avoiding and forgetting the stares we recieved. The only stare I avoided was James' smug grin.
Jasper POV
You can do this!
I had been telling myself that since I first decided to ask Alice out.
Alice. I started liking her the moment we met. I thought she probably liked me too but then I passed it off. If Alice liked me, she would have me right? My thoughts were shattered when Alice glided through the door.
Alice never seemed to not amaze me. Her hair was in its usual spiky disarray. She wore white capris and a pink polo shirt with reasonably sized heels.
She smiled at me when she looked up. I smiled back halfheartedly, nervous.
Alice took notice. "Is there something wrong?"
I immediately calmed at the sound of her cheery voice. "I'll....tell you after class." She nodded and the teacher started the lesson.
Throughtout class I was fighting with myself. I didn't know if I should ask her or just change my question. As soon as the bell rang, Alice had that decisio made for me. "So what is it, Jasper?" She asked, curious.
"Will you....I mean its okay if you don't.....but do you...would you...go out with me Friday." I was surprised I got that much out.
Alice beamed and very proudly said, "I would love to Jasper."
I had never seen Alice so happy before. So did that me she liked me too? I looked at her wide grin and took that answer as a yes. Now all I had to do was not screw the date up.
I grabbed her hand as we walked down the hallway, smiling like idiots at each other.
Bella POV
When lunch came around, I hopped out of my seat, desperate to see Edward. I had just walked out the door before I saw Edward leaning against the lockers, waiting for me. He pulled me against his chest as we walked into the cafeteria.
As I got my tray, what James had said earlier reaccessed my curiosity. I turned to Edward. "Do you know that guys James over there?" I asked pointing to the table he was sitting at. And oddly enough he was staring right back at us. "He said you were old friends."
Edward shrugged. "I don't think I remember him. But he certainly isn't a friend of mine."
Huh? Why would James lie about something like that? This day just kept getting weirder and weirder.
I sat down with Rose, Emmett, Jasper, and Alice like always. Jake didn't sit with us anymore because he sat with his new girlfriend Vanessa. We still talked but I wanted him to spend as much time as he could with her.
I was talking to Rosalie when Edward turned me around and kissed me. I kissed him back not knowing where this was coming from, but I was happy to go along with it. I deepened the kiss and let out a small moan. Then the lauhing started. I turned to see everyone at our table laughing but Edward, who was glaring at James with a "stay away" look. James simply shook his head no and that send Edward over the edge.
He rose from the table and I put a hand on his shoulder, straining him.
"What are you doing?"
He looked from me to James. "I'm just going to talk to him."
We both knew that was untrue. if I let him go over there in his state of mind, I was one-hundred percent sure there would be without a doubt no talking going on.
I rose from the table and grabbed his hand. "Let's go talk." He debated for a moment before nodding. He followed me out to the hallways.
"Explain." I said once we were surrounded by nothing but lockers.
He took a deep breath before he started. "All I know is that he claims we know each other when I don't have a clue who he is. But that's not the point, Bella. He wants you and I don't think he'll give up so easily."
I touched his face. "Edward, I'll be fine. I already hate him. He kept staring at me in first period."
That caught Edward's attention. I probably should have kept that to myself. "Is that the only class you to have together?" He demanded.
"Yes. Now can you behave enough to eat?" I looked to Edward for confirmation. When he nodded, I lightly kissed him on the lips before we reentered the cafeteria.
James POV
I didn't think Edward still lived here after what happened. I would get to have some fun and when I saw Bella...well that only sweetened the pie.
I just hope I won't have a repeat of what happened, too messy.
I dialed Laurent's number. He picked up on about the fourth ring. "Who is this?" He demanded. I probably just woke him up.
Smiling widely, I replied, "You are not going to believe this!"
Emmett POV
I heard someone being pushed against the locker. Probably just some of the jocks shoving an acne ridden freshman into the locker. Thinking I should help them out, I rounded the corner to see James trapping Bella from leaving as she was shoved against the locker.
I walked slowly up to them. "Where do you think your going?" James purred. Bella took accord to me and she sighed in relief. James turned to face me. "So what are you supposed to be? The hall monitor?"
I pretended to think. "Are you the person that sells little blue pills? Because I without that, anything you do with a female...or even male won't work."
James ignored my comment and changed the subject. "Where is my dear Edward? I would like to have a word with him." He smiled mischievously.
"How about you let go of Bella and you get to kept full control over your right arm." I suggested.
James gasped falsely. "Is that a threat?"
"Call it what you want." I spat. This was getting nowhere. James looked amused while Bella looked furiously between me and James. "I'm getting tired of this. Let her go." I said calmly.
He turned back to Bella and smiled. "Now where's the fun in that?"
I snapped.
I ran up to James and tackled him to the floor. When he was on the ground, I swung my fists at his face. When he began to draw blood, I stood up and kicked at his side. James stood up and swung with his left hand that connected with my jaw. This was time to end this. My fist connected with his eye in a punch that was strong, even though it didn't take much energy out of me.
By the time James recovered, the teachers prevented me and him from making another hit.
"That's enough!" Screamed one of the teachers.
Before I was sent to the office, I told Bella to go to her class. She nodded and ran down the hall as I pulled my cell phone out.
Edward, meet me after school at 4. We have a problem---EM
I sent the text and walked into the principals office and, since there were only two chairs, I sat by James.
The principal wasn't in here so James leaned over a whispered, "This isn't over."
I only nodded, knowing for sure this was no where close to over.
SO what do you think? Like it? Love it? Review? I'm so sorry for the delay. I couldn't get on the internet Sunday so I couldn't write. So you may get the third chapter tomorrow and I'll add and extra one(four in all) just to make it up. I'm really sorry.

LOVE. Peace
