Chapter 2: Easy Read

He kinda has a nice smile I thought, "Yes," I said smiling back.

He was still smiling, "I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to speak to you last time I was feeling a bit under the weather," he said sweetly.

My face was flushed, "I-it's okay," I said, struggling to keep my composure. He's actually kinda nice...wait focus Bella don't fall for his nice guy act. Keep your guard up! I mentally shouted remembering how rude he was at first. It was quiet for a while between us as we both started our work.

"How are you liking Forks?" He asked breaking the silence.

I thought for a minute, "It's okay," I answered.

He looked up from his paper raising a brow, "Just okay?" he asked grinning. He seemed honestly curious.

"Well yeah I mean the people are cool," I said not knowing what else to say.

"Cool?" He chuckled.

I furrowed my brow, "What's so funny?" I asked.

"You," he said.

I raised my brow, "How am I funny?"

He shrugged, "I don't know you just are to me," he said smiling.

I shot him a glare feeling my anger rise, "Okay , that's it! You all but glare at me the first time I see you in class like you hate me and now you wanna act like you wanna get to know me!? What gives?" I demanded.

He frowned, "I said before that I was sorry and I was just trying to make amends by at least becoming friends," he explained.

I looked at him with caution as I took in his words, "Hmm okay then I guess we can try to be friends then," I said. Why does he even care so much? Just what is it about him that have people acting so weird?

He smiled before turning to look out the window. "It's raining," he commented. His eyes seemed to be focused on the droplets as they fell from the sky.

I scrunch my nose up, "I hate the rain," I said writing on my paper.

Edward looked over at me in confusion, "You hate rain?" He asked.

I looked up from my paper, "Yeah I don't really like any cold wet things," I said.

He blinked and then began laughing at me, "If you hate the cold and wet so much you must hate taking showers and bathing. You must also hate swimming, why did you even move to Forks if you hate the cold and wet?" he asked clutching his sides still chuckling

I poked my lips out and sucked my teeth, "No I just hate the cold mostly, the feeling just ruins the wetness for me. I wouldn't mind the rain so much if it wasn't cold. The rain is actually peaceful to fall asleep to so I suppose I just hate being cold," I said finishing up my paper.

"It would seem so," he nodded.

"What about you?" I asked.

He raised a brow, "What do you mean?" he asked.

"How do you feel about the cold?"

He looked at me as if he was trying to carefully piece together his response, "It's tolerable I suppose," he said finally.

I only nodded as I glanced at his already finished paper. "Jeez you finished already?" I asked.

He smirked slightly, "I finished long before we started this conversation."

I scoffed cocky bastard I thought, "Show off much?" I said finally finishing up my paper.

His smirk deepened, "Maybe," he chuckled.

I shook my head laughing as we both sat done with our papers. We both sat quietly chatting as we waited for the bell to ring.

"What's your favorite color?" He asked.

I raised my brow, "Purple," I answered.

"Why purple?"

"Because it's a royal color and I hate pink, what about you?"

"I like green," he said.

I nodded in approval, "Green is a good color," I said putting my book in my bag as the bell rang. I got up from my seat and turned to look at him. "So I guess I'll see you."

He shot me a warm smile as he got up from his chair.

I smiled and then turned around only to see Mike standing right in front of me. Shit! I frowned.

"Bella," he sighed in relief meanwhile I was mentally cursing myself.

"Hey Mike," I said nervously.

"What happened yesterday?" He asked clearly upset.

I thought quickly and made up an easy lie, "Oh sorry about that I wasn't feeling all that great so I rushed home," I said with a fake smile.

Mike smiled hopefully, "Oh I thought you were avoiding me," he said scratching his head.

A sweat droplet fell down the side of my forehead, "Whaaaat? No! Of course not! What gave you that idea?" I laughed nervously.

He smiled biting his lip, "You know what it doesn't even matter because I have something really important to ask you...will you go to the dance with me?" He asked.

I sighed I knew this was coming, "Mike I can't and plus this is girl's choice," I said.

"Oh well did you ask someone else?" He frowned.

I blinked, "Yes!" I lied.

"Who did you ask?"

Before I could even think a name came out, "Edward Cullen," I said and everyone who was listening to our conversation stared at me including Edward himself. I turned around to see him staring at me and I blushed. "Excuse me Mike," I said walking passed him with my head down, his body frozen in shock. I walked down the hall making my way to my next class. The rest of my classes flew by pretty fast and it seemed as though I was the most talked about subject. Damn word got around fast here.

The last bell rang and I began making my way to my locker. When I reached the hall Edward was standing clear as day in front of my locker. I looked up at him nervously as I realized the distinct difference in our height. I was foot exactly and he was six foot something. I gulped expecting him to be cold like before. I looking into his eyes and saw no trace of anger there was just confusion.

"We need to talk," he said.

"Okay but you're blocking my locker."

He moved to the side and allowed me to get my things out of my locker. "So...the dance."

I closed my locker door and faced him, "Yeah I'm sorry about that, it wasn't cool for me to involve you in my lie I understand if you're mad."

He raised a brow, "Why would I be angry?"

I looked at him like he was crazy, "Well because the whole school thinks I asked you to the dance and that we're going together."

He smirked mischievously, "Well why not? I certainly don't mind," he said.

My eyes widened in horror as I looked at his face, "You're gonna make do something aren't you?" I asked.

He laughed but then he thought for a moment, "No I just have one favor," he said.

"And what's that?" I asked curiously.

His look became more serious, "If I at any point tell you to stay away from me, do so without question okay?"

I furrowed my brows in confusion, "Huh?"

"Just promise Bella," he pleaded.

Part of me wondered why I was even considering such a thing seeing as how I barely knew him but what he said was strange. With those few words he made it seem like he was trying to tell me that he was dangerous but if that was the case then I didn't believe it. I'm not sure why or how but I felt it. I was almost sure that he wasn't dangerous. Sure he was rude at first but the person he had showed me in our bio class was different today. It was as if his rude side and nice side were two completely different people. So what? Looks can be deceiving? Could he be showing me a side of him that only he wants me to see? Well for whatever reason I was curious and I wanted to know more, "Okay," I said finally.

He smiled, "Thank you Bella," he said before walking off.

I sighed as I turned to walk out of the school building the rain soaking me wet as I headed for my car.

I pulled in the driveway taking note that Charlie had not come home from work yet. I turned the engine of my truck off then threw my keys in my bag. I hopped out and made my way to the front door unlocking it before stepping inside. Before I set my bag down my phone rang so I reached into my pocket to pull it out.

I tapped the screen and answered it, "Hello?" I greeted.

"Bella?" It was my mom. I smiled with overwhelming joy. I missed her so much.

"Hi mom!"

"Hi sweety! I saw your email and figured I'd give you a call instead, how are you?" She asked.

I thought about telling her about everything that happened starting with the mean girls and fake date for prom but I decided against it instead only telling her things that made it seem like I was happy, "I'm well I just got home from school," I replied.

"Oh wow haha perfect timing then, so how was it?"

"School was fine," I answered again. That had been my answer every time she asked me how school was.

I could hear the frown in her voice, "Awe come on! Just fine? No boyfriend? Or girlfriend?" She asked curiously.

I blushed, "God no! Mom I like boys but I haven't really met anyone that I like yet," I said not hiding the embarrassment in my voice.

Renee giggled, "Okay okay I was just trying to fit in with today's times but honestly Bells there's no one you like?"

I inhaled through my mouth trying to calm the blush on my face, "No no one yet," I said in a convincing tone.

"Okay well you'll tell me if you do right?" She asked hopefully.

"Of course," I said.

"Alright well oh! Phil says hi."

"Hi Phil," I yelled through the phone. I heard him say hi back and then disappear into the background.

My mom sighed, "I really miss you baby," she said sadly.

"I miss you too mom," I said trying not to sound so sad. "I'll come visit during break or something."

"That sounds like a plan hun- Oh hold on Phil! Bella? Hey honey I have to go now but we can talk more later okay?"

I sighed, "Okay."

"Say hi to Charlie for me?"

"Will do."

"Thanks baby, I love you bye."

"Love you too, bye," I said hanging up the phone shoving it back in my pocket. I went to the kitchen to make myself some vegan chili. When I was finished Charlie's car pulled in the yard.

"Hey I'm home!" He shouted walking through the door.

"I'm in the kitchen!" I hollered back.

He walked into the kitchen, "Hey Bella," he greeted making his way to the fridge to grab a beer.

"Hey dad," I replied fixing myself a generous helping of the chili.

Charlie opened his beer taking a big swig, "How was your day?" he asked.

"Good, oh and mom called," I told him taking a spoon full of chili placing it into my mouth.

He raised a brow, "Oh?"

"Yeah she says hi."

"Hm." Was all he said.

We sat in silence as I ate. Charlie finished his beer before helping himself to a bowl of my chili. Once I finished my food I sat my plate in the sink rinsing it out. I grabbed a clean glass from the wooden cabinet above me before heading over to the fridge for some lemonade. I put some ice in my cup before pouring the sweet sour drink in my cup.

Charlie cleared his throat breaking the silence, "This chili is good," he said getting up to get another beer. "Spicy too," he added.

"Thanks," I said taking a sip of my lemonade.

"So you got any plans tonight?" he asked curiously.

"Nope just gonna finish my homework and head to bed," I said.

He narrowed his eyes suspiciously, "So no movie date?"

"Nope."

"What none of the guys fancy you?"

"Eh a few actually do," I admitted thinking about the Mike incident.

Charlie raised a brow, "So? Any takers?" he asked finishing up his chili.

I sighed, "Nope," I replied. Why was he trying to ask me about boys right now?

"What about Mike Newton?"

Shit! "What about him?" I asked.

His eyes narrowed, "Bella," he began.

"I don't like him, like at all," I confessed.

Charlie shot me a confused look, "I figured you two were a thing seeing as how the last three times we were at the diner he was there being friendly towards you," he said drinking his beer.

I shot him a look of disgust, "He's a friend." I think.

"Mmhmm well what about this dance that's coming up? Are you going?" he asked.

"Well I do want to go only...I want to go by myself," I said taking another sip of my lemonade.

He blinked in surprise, "Oh well okay," he said getting up to put his bowl into the sink.

I finished my lemonade then got up to put the rest of the chili away in the fridge. I washed dishes before heading upstairs to do my homework. When I finished I took out my phone to call my mom back. Her phone rang and rang until I got her voicemail. I frowned she must've still been helping Phil. I missed her terribly. She was always busy helping Phil with stuff and it seemed like she barely had any time for me lately. I felt an overwhelming amount of emotions course through me, taking a deep breath I tired to calm down burying my emotions so that I wouldn't break down and cry. I decided to take a shower to take my mind away. I figured the warm water would distract me but I was so wrong. When I turned the water on it was hot but it felt so good against my skin. It reminded me of the hot sun back in Phenix. I remembered how the hot sun felt on my skin, it was almost intoxicating. The emotions coursed through me once again and the tears began escaping my eyes. A small sob escaped from my lips as I broke down in the shower. So this is homesickness...

X.X.X

I opened my locker door shoving my books inside, taking out a notebook and shoving it in my bag. I slam my locker door before walking off.

"Where do you think you're going!?" a familiar annoying voice shouted from behind me.

I sighed. I wasn't in the mood for this today. I woke up a little late than what I would've liked after crying myself to sleep. I remembered the red eyes and dark circles in my eyes as I looked myself over in the bathroom mirror this morning, "What is it now Jessica?" I spat turning around to face her.

She glared at me, "Hmf! You've got some nerve talking to me like that you slut!"

I blinked in confusion, "What?"

"I heard you fucked Mike then Tyler and now Edward," she all but shouted causing some people that walked by to turn their heads.

I glared at her, "And just what makes you think that's true?" I asked placing my hands on my hips.

She folded her arms swishing her hip to the side, "Well you are always around Mike and Tyler," she looked down grabbing a small lock of her hair twirling it in her finger. "And now Poor Edward, I mean it's really sad but my only question is how you got Edward," she snickered. "Isn't she sad Angela?"

Angela a semi shy girl who hung out with Jessica and Lauren and had been friends ever since they were little. "I- I guess," she said looking down.

Lauren raised her brow, "Guess? What do you mean you guess?" she scoffed.

I shot them a look of boredom, "Well first Mike and Tyler are always hanging around me. I sit by myself at lunch they just occasionally sit with me to keep me company. Second I what do and don't do with my personal like shouldn't concern any of you," I said.

She gasped, "So you did fuck Mike and Tyler!" accused Jessica.

I smirked deciding to toy with her emotions. I was so obvious that she liked Mike and that she thought I liked him. She couldn't stand the fact that he liked me, "If I did what makes you think I would tell you?" I asked struggling to fight back a laugh.

Jessica shot me a look of horror as both her crew members jaws dropped, "You're such a freak Swan!" she shouted.

"Right! I mean what does Edward even see in her?" Lauren sneered in disgust.

I rolled my eyes, "Yeah you guys are so original anyway I hate to cut whatever this was short but I'm gonna be late to my first period," I said walking off to my class leaving behind a very angry Jessica and Lauren. I made it on time to my first period class. I sat in my seat and began my work. I could hear the whispers of my name as I wrote answers on my paper. I sighed realizing that once again today people were talking about me. It was like this all morning and even going into lunch. I slid my tray down the line not really caring what they put on it. Once I made it to the front I paid for my food along with some oreos and a soda before heading to my table. I sat at my table plopping my bag on the floor. This was my normal routine of sitting by myself. I opened my soda to take a sip.

"Can I sit down?" asked someone from behind me.

I turned around to see Edward smiling down at me, his sudden presence startled me causing me to swallow my soda down the wrong way. "I- oghf! Sure," I said coughing.

He sat across from me with a look of concern in his eyes, "Are you alright?" he asked.

"Just fine," I said clearing my throat.

Edward grinned, "So how are you liking the snow?" he asked.

I groaned as I thought back again to this morning. I remembered how cold it was outside, the disgusting wet sound of slosh that was mixed with dirt and snow. I shivered at the thought, "Not very much," I admitted.

"How come?"

"Well one the snow mixes with the dirt and it creates this nasty slushy stuff. Two the snow is actually really pretty to look at but it's just so cold but I guess I would like it more if it wasn't cold," I said opening my oreos.

Edward roared with laughter, "Bella you do know that snow is supposed to be cold because its ice right?" he said his body shaking with laughter.

I pouted, "Yes I know that but still."

He shook his head, "You're hilarious," he chuckled.

I furrowed my brow, "And you're weird for always asking me about the weather," I accused.

He frowned, "Well I do have other questions mostly just because I'm curious," he admitted.

I popped an oreo in my mouth and chewed, "What kind?" I asked curiously.

"Well what made you move to Forks in the first place? You obviously don't like the cold so why move somewhere you know you're going to hate?" he asked.

I inhaled caught off guard by his question. For some reason I didn't feel like lying to him, "Well I moved to live with my dad because my mom got remarried," I said truthfully. I hadn't told anyone here the reason I moved. Instead I chose to avoid all questions and lie when asked about how I felt but for some reason I told him the truth. It was almost if he compelled it out of me. Being at this school for only a month and a few days I hadn't exactly made any real friends so maybe I could trust him.

He looked into my eyes, his were hard and focused with a hint of worry. I noted that they were slightly lighter than yesterday, "So do you not like the guy she's with?" he asked.

I frowned, "No Phil's fine, he's perfect for my mom," I said.

His eyes softened, "Then what is it?" He asked.

I sighed frustrated taking another sip of my soda, "It's just that my mom barely got to spend time with him because she was always looking after me so I thought I could live with Charlie for a while," I explained feeling a wave of emotions again. I took a deep breath to calm my nerves so that I wouldn't cry in front of him. I can't believe I'm telling him everything! I thought.

He frowned his eyes looked sympathetically into my brown ones, "But in doing so you've made yourself unhappy," he said.

"I am not unhappy!" I snapped. I was a little harsher than I anticipated, I took a deep breath. "Sure I'm sad because I miss my mom and I miss living in Arizona but I missed Char- er…. my dad too."

A look of confusion flashed across his face, "I don't understand you," he confessed.

I narrowed my eyes, "Why are you even trying to?" I asked. It had been a question I thought about.

"In all honesty I don't know," he said shifting his gaze at his lunch and then to mine. "Do you eat?" He changed the subject.

I pushed my tray away from me in disgust. Today's lunch was taco and chips with a side of corn. "Actually yes, just not food here," I said scrunching my nose up at the beefy smell. "What about you?" I nodded in the direction of his full tray.

He pushed his tray away towards mine with the same amount of disgust, "The food here has never been my preference. I'm on a special diet," he said with a light chuckle.

My eyes widened in surprise, "Really? Cool I'm a vegan/vegetarian," I said.

He cocked a brow smirking as if he was amused by my lifestyle, "Oh? How can you be both? You're either one or the other," he said, his voice full of amusement.

I bit my bottom lip, "Well I'm Vegan mostly but I love to eat chocolate and some of it unfortunately isn't vegan so I cheat on occasion because I can't resist," I confessed.

He shook his head laughing, "You're something else Ms. Swan."

I smiled at his laughter. He seemed so happy and kinda silly. It made me want to laugh with him so I let a few giggles out, "Tell me something I don't know," I joked.

Edward shook his head smiling but his smile didn't last long as he looked passed me slightly frowning, "I don't think your boyfriend likes me very much," he said sarcastically.

I flinched at the name before turning around to see what he was looking at. From a not so distant table sat Mike and Tyler at Jessica's table. Mike was glaring at us all the way from where he sat. I rolled my eyes turning back around to face Edward. "Fuck him," I said irritation in my voice.

"He wishes," he said dryly.

I shivered in disgust, "That's gross!" I said in disgust.

"So about the dance," he paused for a few moments. "Did you actually want to go or did you just say that to get out of going with Mike?" He asked.

My eyes widened and I blinked shifting my gaze to the now empty soda bottle. I thought for a minute before speaking, "I did want to go but not with Mike. I love dancing," I said, I smiled as I remembered taking dance lessons when I was little. I learned some ballet, tap, jazz, salsa, cha cha, bachata, merengue, reggaeton, and samba. I loved the way the music made me feel. When I heard music my body would become as obedient as a puppet on a string and the music its master. I looked up from the bottle and met his gaze. "Why?"

He grinned, "What a guy can't be curious?" He asked innocently.

I raised a brow narrowing my eyes, "I guess you can," I said suspiciously. Why do I get the feeling he's up to something?

His grin widened as he got up from the table. He reached over to pick up his tray then walked over to my side picking up the empty soda bottle and empty oreo bag, "Do you mind if I dump yours?" He asked looking at me for the okay. I looked into his eyes, nodding my head letting him know that it was okay. He picked up my tray and headed towards the trash cans. The bell rang loudly signaling that lunch was over. I sighed pulling my bag over my shoulder.

Edward made his way back to the table picking up his bag as well, "Ready for Bio?" He smiled walking next to me. We carried on a lively conversation all the way to class. I could see people stare at us in the background, whispering. I wondered why they were all so fascinated with my life all of a sudden and then I remembered prom. They must all be talking about us going together. I sighed mentally punching myself for saying I was going with him. Had I known I would've gotten this much attention I would've named someone else. This guy brought more drama than what I was used to and I was still deciding whether or not it was a completely bad thing.

"Hellooo earth to Bella!" He waved his hand in my face causing me to snap out of my thoughts.

"Huh?"

Edward smiled and chuckled, "I was asking you what colors would you like to wear for the dance?"

I gulped, "I don't know yet."

He raised his eyebrows, "Well I was thinking that a dark blue or purple would look good on you and I would wear black," he smiled sweetly.

"That sounds fine," I smiled back as we continued to chat during class finishing up our work before everyone else had become a bit of a game for us. Edward would finish his work first as always and it was always so frustrating how he'd always finish before me. "How do you do that?" I asked.

He frowned, "Do what?"

"Finish before me," I pouted.

He raised a brow and chuckled, "Do you really wanna know?"

"Yes it's quite frustrating. What did you do? Go to some elite state of the art school?"

He smirked, "Something like that."

I glared at him somewhat playful, "Hmf! I'm serious, it's almost like you're not human," I said with sarcasm.

Nothing prepared me for his next reaction, his face went cold and his face was somewhat of an angry expression. He muttered something that sounded like 'yeah almost' but when I asked him to repeat what he said he just told me to drop it….I don't know why but for some reason I wanted to know more about him. He was strange that's for sure.

*****A/N: That's it for now guys! Tell me what you think in the comments! (Also Edwards POV will be included in my version of Midnight Sun so stay tuned for it cause it'll come out soon)

Bella: You're weird but I wanna figure you out plus your kinda hot.

Edward: Ummm thank you?

Me: *looks at Edward* Yeaaaah you're hot! Maybe I'll make a separate story where I'm your Bella instead *winks* who knows might be interesting to see a twist on her character if she was black.

Edward: uh huh maybe

Bella: sounds cool to me!
