Chapter 4

Edward's POV

I was a little hungover today, because of the party last night at Ian's. So, I decided to skip the first few lessons at school.

After I have slept two more hours, I finally got up. The alcohol from last night still caused a headache. This day would be tiring.

So, I went downstairs and made myself a coffee. The house was empty. Alice was already at school, mum and dad at work.

While I was drinking my coffee, I got bored. I pulled out my phone and checked the messages. Five new messages.

Message Number one:
Hi darling, thank you for last night. Want to meet again on Saturday? I want to see you again. XOXO Megan

Message Number two:
Edward, why don't you answer my message? Don't you want to meet me again? Love, Megan

Message Number three:
Why did you left yesterday with Megan? I thought you want me… Call me. I still want to meet you again. XOXO Emma

Message Number four:
Hey Edward. Last night was lovely. I think we should repeat it. XOXO Ashley

Message Number five:
Still no answer? Did I do something wrong? Please call me. XOXO Megan

After I have read the messages, I deleted them all. I had no idea who these girls were. I didn't remember much about last night.

Girls can be so clinging. Why can't they just enjoy the night and leave me alone afterwards?

I finished my coffee, showered and went to school. I took the car Carlisle, my dad, had given to me at my sixteenth birthday.

Twenty minutes later I arrived at school and went to the classroom. A few minutes later the biology lesson with professor Stevenson started.

I tried not to fall asleep and pay attention. I got one new message from Ashley but deleted it, directly after I had read it.

Biology lessons with Stevenson are one of my favourites. I like Biology a lot and he is a funny teacher.

The two hours were quickly over.

The bell rang and I headed to the cafeteria for lunch. I sat down at our table and waited for to others to arrive.

The first ones were my sister Alice and our good friend Eric.

"Hey Edward. It is nice to see that you are no longer completely hungover." Alice made fun of me.

"You look a bit pale, Edward. Is everything alright?", Eric asked sarcastically. He tried to hide his laughter.

"Thanks you two. I am completely fine. You don't have to worry about my condition." I told them politely.

A few moments later Jessica arrived at the table. She had a big smile on her face as she greeted us.

"What is it, Jessica?", Alice asked curious.

"Just the usual things, you know." She gave me a look of reproach.

"Edward here, again, broke some hearts at Ian's party yesterday. And the best thing is two of these girls are in one of my classes. So, today all I heard was something like: 'Why isn't he texting back? What did I do wrong? Do you think he doesn't love me?'."

They laughed. Then Jessica went on.

"So, Edward, could you please try to be not such a heart breaker anymore? It is getting annoying by the time." She grinned.

"I'll try my best", I told them. They laughed again.

"I bet you don't even remember the girls' names." Alice said.

"He was completely drunk when he got home at 4 pm.", she explained to the others.

They are getting annoying. It is my life. I can have as much fun as I want to.

Angela sat down at the table. I was happy about her arrival because she immediately changed topics.

"Hey guys. I have got news for you. We have got a new student at Forks High School and I already met her. She is great! Her name is Bella Swan and she also wants to write for the school magazine. Isn't that amazing?", Angela asked exited.

She answered this question by herself and went on telling us more about this new girl.

"And she is very kind and she just moved back to Forks to live her Father, chief Swan. And I think you will like her."

"Ah, there she is." Angela waved in direction of a pretty girl, who recognized her and then headed toward us.

"Please be nice to her." Angela told us before the girl was at our table.

"Especially you, Edward Cullen."

"I promise." I told her bored.

Everyone at the table giggled. Except me.

The girl finally made it to our table and Angela introduced her to us, immediately.

Angela started with Jessica.

While she got introduced to my friends I used the time for looking at her in detail.

You look good, Bella Swan.

She had long brown hair, and dark brown eyes.

Her clothes weren't body hugging, but although I could imagine her good figure.

I liked her boobs they were not too big and not too small. Just the way I like it.

And her face was not just pretty, it was beautiful. It would be hard to not brake my promise.

When Alice got introduced she, of course, had to start talking about clothes. When I looked at Bella I thought she doesn't mind as much about clothes as Alice does. So, I told Alice to give her some time before she asks her stupid questions.

Alice wasn't annoyed about my comment, she knew me.

Bella didn't, so she quickly told Alice that it was okay.

Then she turned her head towards me and asked, "And who are you?".

I answered, "I am Edward." I grinned while I introduced myself.

"Well it is nice to meet you, Edward." Bella answered and looked away quickly after our short eye contact.

After Bella's introduction, we enjoyed lunchtime.

We had a good time and Bella fit quite good into our little 'gang' and I liked her.

I think the others liked her too. That's why they didn't make fun of my today's condition, like they usually do.

Lunchtime was over and everybody headed towards the classrooms. I wanted to go home, but Alice stopped me before I could get out of school inconspicuously.

"Don't be truant again. Mum and dad already worry enough about your stupid behaviour." She told me with a look of reproach.

I didn't comment her predication.

So, I didn't go home like I wanted to. No. Instead I went to an amazing and interesting geography lesson. I hated it. It was boring and useless.

After this tiring lesson I really had to get out. As I went out of school, my thoughts were already somewhere else...

I drove home and lay down again. If I knew what expected me after I got up again, I would have stayed in bed all day.

"Edward. We have to talk!", dad called.

I had no idea what he wanted to talk about, so I went downstairs. Mum and Dad were sitting in the kitchen.

They both looked concerned.

"Edward we need to talk to you.", mum said sadly.

My dad went on. "School called again today. You didn't attend to all of your lessons. Why didn't you go? And do not even try to lie about it. So why didn't you go, Edward?" His tone was harshly.

"I…was tired." I stuttered.

"Is it possible that you were still drunk in the morning because you partied all night?"

"Ahm…yes?" "Why do you ask?"

"Because your behaviour is not normal anymore!", he screamed at me. This was the first time that I heard him screaming, ever.

"You are seventeen, Edward! You are not allowed to drink alcohol at all. Nevertheless, you are drunk more than once in a week at any party where you make out with girls you don't even remember the next day."

How did he know that? Whatever.

"It can't go on like this. We've warned you before and you didn't stop. This is the last warning! You must stop drinking! We won't allow you to drive with your car until we can be sure you don't drink anymore. If you don't stop drinking, you will have to live with the consequences."

"You completely overreact. Everything is fine. I don't drink anymore. Calm down."

Without any more words I went upstairs in my room, turned on the music, opened the window and climbed out. It was easy, I have already done this a hundred times. I ran through into the wood.

After about 280 feet away from the house, I looked for the signed tree. As I have found it, I pulled out a bottle of whiskey from the hole in the tree, took a mouthful, immediately a second one and finally relaxed.

Then I looked through the contacts in my phone. I found the one I was looking for and called. She took up after the first beep.

"Hey Megan, here's Edward. Are you busy right know? I would like to see you again. I can't stop thinking about you and last night."
