The next week passed in a peaceful bliss. But with Edward in all of my classes, and Alice in two of them herself, how could it not be?

Edward and I had English first. English had always been one of my favorite classes, but with Edward in them, it made them all the better.

Then we both had Calculus. I hated Calculus. But with Edward to help me, well, it didn't seem so bad.

After that, we both had History. I had always aced History, even though I hated it. Now, I didn't hate it so much. Maybe it was because Edward was there to suffer with me.

For fourth period I had Gym. Gym had never been so awesome! With both Edward and Alice in it, and the fact that I wasn't clumsy anymore, it was actually pretty fun! (I never thought I would say that about Gym!)

Then, for lunch, the three of us sat at the table that the Cullen's sat at last year. We talked a lot. And when we weren't speaking out loud, Edward and I were having a private conversation, speaking aloud only for Alice's benefit when we wanted her to hear what we were saying. Alice, technically, didn't need to speak at all.

After lunch, the three of us had Spanish and could all suffer together.

For the last class of the day, Edward and I went off to Chemistry while Alice went off to Calculus.

Either the homework was lighter, or I just didn't notice half the homework we had. I had never had an easier first week of school, and that includes kindergarten.

Mike kept his distance from me, he avoided me actually. I noticed that his nose seemed bruised. Serves him right. Any time he saw me with Alice, he ran the opposite direction. Any time he saw me with Edward, he made a wide circle around us. It was kind of funny.

After school, I would stay at the Cullen's until Charlie got home. But in those few hours that I was at the Cullen's, Alice introduced me to more of her favorite bands and insisted on loaning or giving me CDs. Soon, I had quite the collection.

Then, I would go to Charlie's and spend the evening with him. I began to know him better. At first, Edward had to insist that I spend time with him, but by the end of the week, I rather enjoyed it. Besides, I had an eternity with Edward, Charlie would only be here for so long.

Edward never failed to pick me up exactly at eight. We would go from Charlie's to his house for my piano lessons. When I had first started them, I found them torture, now, I looked forward to them.

When I knew all the Linkin Park ones by heart, Edward started me on Debussy. Then, Alice insisted that I copied sheet music for Evanescence and all her other favorite music artists and bands so I could play those as well. It became a project for me, a challenge, I liked it.

Around six in the morning, I would head back to Charlie's to change and to see him before he left for work. Then, Edward would pick me up for school.

Some would find it monotonous. I didn't, I had Edward to make my days interesting to say the least.


Soon, it was Friday. Edward suggested that we go hunting. I eagerly agreed. I was always thirsty, but being around humans wasn't dangerous, I still found their blood repulsive.

I asked Alice if she would like to join us, but she said that she was going to go to see Jasper this weekend.

Edward and I headed up to Goat Rocks early Saturday morning. I had explained to Charlie where we were going last night. He didn't expect to see me until Monday morning.

"Do you think that Charlie's taking this a little too well?" I asked Edward on our way up.

"I'm not sure. Maybe Billy told him enough of his superstitions about the "cold ones"-leaving us out to keep the treaty of course- that he's just open to it now."

"I guess. I'm just worried that one thing we say or do might completely scare him and he'll disown me or something, either that or he'll check himself into a mental asylum for thinking he believes in vampires."

"I don't think he'll disown you. I'm more worried that he'll send you back to your mom and put a restraining order on me for poisoning your mind."

"That would be worse. I haven't even heard from my mom since before we left for the camping trip, I'm surprised she hasn't called. Though, she's probably emailed, I should probably check those…" I added, making a mental note to check those when we got back.

Soon, we were in Goat Rocks.

I watched Edward tackle a bear, and a mountain lion. I even pinned down a mountain lion myself, but after drinking it, I decided that I liked deer better.

Deer to me was like steak to a human. Just like rabbits for some reason reminded me of the sweetest chocolate.

Mountain lion reminded me of burnt bacon. I didn't even try bear. It smelled like fish.

After all the fish I ate with Charlie, I hate it now.

"Let me get this straight, you're trying to compare animal blood to human food." Edward said.

I nodded. Edward just laughed and shook his head, heading after another bear.


The hunting trip ended too soon.

When we arrived back at the Cullen's, it was late Sunday night.

"Can I take a shower here?" I asked. I felt gross.

Edward nodded, then pointed to the bathroom across the hall from his bedroom. "You can go first."

Then I realized that I didn't have a change of clothes. Edward just laughed and said, "Follow me."

I followed him into Alice's room. He led me to a dresser and said, "The top drawer is full of clothes that Alice meant to give to you. I'm sure you can find something in there."

Great, now Alice is shopping without me for me.

Edward laughed again.

Once I found some clothes, I went back to the bathroom and climbed in the shower.

When I had finished, I went downstairs and sat at the piano and began to play.

Edward soon joined me.

It was about four in the morning when Alice got back. She was grinning evilly.

"What's going on?" I asked.

"It's going to be sunny today. We won't be able to go to school, so you and I are going shopping."

"But…" I didn't even get to finish.

"It will be pouring buckets in Seattle, we're shopping there, we leave in three hours."

Then she danced upstairs.

What am I going to tell Charlie?

"Don't worry about Charlie," Edward said as he kissed my forehead. "I'll tell him where you're going." Have fun shopping.

Yet another day shopping with Alice. How fun.
