A/N Hey sorry, I made a grammar error on the last paragraph, if you have any questions, just ask me. The goal for this chapter is 60, but don't worry I don't expect you guys to reach it for a couple of chapters.
Chapter 12
Bella POV
Edward wasn't at school again the next day. I wonder why, could it be me?
No way I didn't even say anything to him. More bad news Mike asked me on a date this Friday, but I told him I was going to Seattle. Then Tyler and Erich both asked me on a date but I used the same excuse. I don't see why they won't leave me alone!
I wonder when Edward is coming back, its been a few days. Then again he acted like he hated me, so why do I care so much? Why did I want him to like me so much? I didn't even know the guy! This is definitely weird.
I slept on Jeremy's email, and I guess it wouldn't be so bad if he came down, but I wouldn't want him to stay over a week, because I can't get to know him or get attached or it will be hard when he moves back down to Phoenix. Forks was a lot more boring to hang around in if you didn't have any friends to hang out with.
Although that Jessica girl was trying to get close to me, but she seemed fake like she was just going to use me to get to boys, like Mike. She seemed pretty fond of him. There was always Angela too, she seemed really nice. I could see a friendship there.
I've been emailing Renee lately and apparently she thinks that Phil is doing really good, so they might stay in Jacksonville.
At least all the attention I had been getting for being the new girl died down, and not that many people were interested in me anymore thank god. All my classes were really easy since we were almost a month ahead in Phoenix.
_________________________________________________________________
After school I started to make spaghetti and then I ran upstairs to read my email, and reply to Jeremy.
I had two again from unknown, now I wonder who they could be from. He is such a wuss, he has to email me everyday to try to frighten me, well it's going to take more than that Aaron!
Surprisingly Renee hadn't emailed me back since she always emails me since she can't figure out how to text yet and can never keep her phone charger for over a month without losing it. I wonder how she will keep track of her own head without me. I guess the only thing I had left to do was email Jeremy back, which I had been dreading all day.
Jeremy,
I've gotten to the point where I really don't care if you stay or come. I just don't want you here for more than a week, because this will be the last time I see you, and that is final! If you have the courage to call me back then, and only then will I give you my address, under one condition. That you stay out of Charlie's sight, I don't want him to know you're from Phoenix or even see you, understand? Well, you better.
Bella
Well now that that's over with, I have a lot less stress over my shoulders. Oh, that smells like the spaghetti sauce is almost done, better put some bread in the oven, and make the noodles.

The next day I got ready and headed off to school. I searched the parking lot for the silver Volvo, something I found myself doing the past couple of days. The different thing about today was that it was there and there was no red convertible.
Joy rose inside of me and I was happier than I had been all week. I was standing by my truck looking at him, but didn't realize it until he turned around and returned my gaze, and I looked away and blushed a deep shade of red. Dang I really need to stop doing that.
I walked into school when the bell rang and ran to my first class without looking at him again.
My first three classes went by really fast, and then lunch came and then biology! Wait, why was I excited? He was probably just going to ignore me and scoot as far away from me as possible. Well, maybe he has changed and he wants to talk to me today. I doubt it; I really don't know why I'm thinking like this, I never have felt like this for anybody. Why is he any different?
I got my lunch and sat with Jessica and Angela again. When I looked up his table again, they were all staring at me. All of them! The pixie like girl, Alice I think it was, was smiling at me while the blonde glared at me for a reason I didn't know. The buff guy was also smiling at me, while the blonde looked at me with the same expression he always had, the one that looked like he was in pain. Then Edward was just staring at me like he did in the parking lot, I couldn't really read his expression though, unlike the rest of his family.
I finally tore my gaze away about a minute later and again, I blushed. The bell rang a couple of minutes later and I rushed out of the cafeteria to biology.
He was one of the only people already sitting. I was ignoring Mike as he babbled on and on and just said mm hmm and nodded at the right places.
"Hey mike I'm going to sit down now."
"But I wasn't done with my story."
"You can tell me it later." I said as I sat down and made him finally go away, that guy was so annoying!
"Hello, my name is Edward." I jumped about a foot when he spoke to me, because it startled me so much. So I guess he did change. "I'm sorry I didn't introduce myself on Monday, I wasn't feeling the best and that's why I have been out the past couple of days. It's Bella right?"
"How did you know my name?"
"Well just about everybody in school knows your name."
"No, everybody calls me Isabella."
"Oh, I heard some people saying you liked to be called Bella instead of Isabella."
"Oh." There was a silence until he changed the subject.
"So how do you like it in Forks?" He said.
"I hate all the rain and how wet it is."
"Then why did you move up here?" The way he almost sounded was like he was accusing me of doing some thing.
"Um ah…well my mom wanted to be with her husband who was traveling with minor baseball and she was always lonely in Phoenix. She stayed because she didn't want me to be alone. So I moved to live with my dad here in Forks." The bell rang after that and the conversation ended for a while until the teacher stopped talking I turned to him again.
"Do you wear contacts?"
"No, why would you think that?"
"Because your eyes are a lighter gold today and on Monday they were almost…. I mean darker." wow I bet I sound like a crazy person, um ya your eyes were black and now there gold. But I was sure they were black, I could not forget they way they looked at me with all the hate in the world.
"I didn't know my eyes changed colors, that's pretty interesting." He turned back around after that. There really was something different about him, and I wanted to find out. The weird part was that he strangely reminded me of Aaron. Well kinda.
The bell rang and he was already out the door like on Monday. He is also very impatient too. Well at least he talked to me today, and didn't scoot as far away from me. The thing that really confused me was his eyes.
Aaron POV
I watched through the trees go through her petty classes.
One week and we can finally reunite. You may find it awkward at first, Bella, but you will soon grow to love me as soon as we leave this town and Phoenix forever. It will be just you and me and we can start off new, and maybe even start a new family.
I just have to get these vampires off my back with their suspicions of me, they won't leave me alone now, but once we escape they won't care anymore. Of course, I wouldn't tell you everything about me but you don't have to actually know that. Now I wait for the perfect time to make our escape. I was thinking of enrolling into your school but I didn't want to freak you out too much. Plus the last time I tried that you moved farther away from me, which you will pay for since I had to go through all this trouble just to keep us together. Don't worry my love, it won't be that bad.
You just wait and I will save you. Yes I will, you can bet on that. I will keep on watching you like I have been doing to make sure nobody hurts you. I will be the only guy allowed to touch you.
Why does she keep trying to talk to that Cullen? Does she realize how dangerous he is to her? He is a vampire; he could kill her at any moment. I need to rid of him, and quick. He is too close to her already.
"Hey, Carl? What's the Cullen's name that she is too close to?"
"I believe that would be Edward Cullen. You do know if you kill him, the rest of his family will come looking for you."
"That's not so bad, well how many of them are there?"
"There is 7 counting Edward."
"I guess we will have to call my family up here then, it will take more than us two to defeat 6 vampires. Maybe call up Ricardo too, and tell him to bring his buddies. I feel a war coming up."
"Yes master."
Well now that that's being taken care of, I should plan my attack…
Bella POV
"Hello?" I said as I answered the phone.
"Bella? Well hey, this is Angela, and Jess and I were going to head over Port Angeles on Saturday to go dress shopping for the dance, and I was wondering if you wanted to go."
"Uh, sure. When are you guys leaving?"
"Um we were thinking about going at like 3, maybe 3:30. And she said we could all ride in her car to save gas."
"Ok sounds cool, so she will pick us up?"
"Yea, glad you want to go. I will talk to you tomorrow."
"Yea, bye." Well at least I will have something to do this weekend and I wanted to go to a bookstore in Port Angeles anyway. Now I just had to ask Charlie and I could try to have some fun for once and get to know Angela and Jess a bit better.
Charlie got home a couple of hours later and I had already made some dinner so we were eating when I brought Port Angeles up.
"Hey dad?"
"Yes Bella?"
"Um, some of my friends were planning on going to Port Angeles this weekend to go shopping for the dance next Friday. And they invited me."
"Who are you going to the dance with?"
"Well I'm not actually going to the dance; I'm just going to help them pick out dresses."
"What are you doing then if you're not going to the dance?"
"Well I was planning on going to Seattle, but that's not the point right now."
"Sure you can go to Port Angeles, but I don't know if I want you to go Seattle by yourself."
"Thanks dad and I'll deal with that later." We finished eating in silence after that and I cleaned up the kitchen. He went to watch the game as usual, and I went upstairs. Today had been a little weird but good, Edward was back and kinda talking to me, and now I get to go to Port Angeles with Angela and jess. Wonder why the Cullens were all looking at me like that. And I drifted off to sleep with that.
A/N I tried something new by putting a new POV in, did you like it? Please remember to review!
