Chapter 2: The Mall
Nessie's POV
I fell asleep quickly on the plane. I didn't wake up until we landed. If it weren't for Ricky shaking me awake I might've gotten left behind. He was the only one on the plane still waiting for me.
"Come on Nessie they're going to leave us behind"
"No they won't" I grumbled but still got up anyway.
"Edgar might think it's a funny prank if they all left us behind"
He certainly was right about that. Edgar was one of our teammates as well as our friend. He was also a big prankster. Sometimes he went a little too far though.
Sure enough everyone was waiting for us when we got off. All we could think about was finding something good to eat.
Our coach decided to take us to one of the nearby malls so we could all eat whatever we wanted to at the food court. I got excited at the very thought of going to a new mall and exploring it. I had been to all of the malls back home many times and I wanted to see a new one.
As soon as we got to the food court we all went our separate ways. Except for Ricky and I. We were inseparable. We were truly best friends.
We both stood in line for McDonalds trying to decide what we should eat. I was so hungry that I was sure I could eat everything on the menu right now.
""Nessie after we eat want to go explore the mall together?"
"You want to walk around the mall?" I laughed. "You're basically allergic to shopping!" I kept laughing.
"With you it's not so bad besides there might be some cool sports stores to go into"
"We don't need anymore baseball gear"
"I thought you wanted a new bat?" he asked.
I sighed. He was right. I did want a new baseball bat. Mine was getting too old. I looked at him only to see him smiling triumphantly. He knew he had me and he loved it.
"Nessie I really can't believe you slept the whole flight. That was five hours. How did you do that?"
I shrugged my shoulders. "Guess I was just tired and didn't even know it"
"Do you also know that there's strange people watching us"
"What?" I asked, feeling shocked and worried at the same time.
"Look behind you. The've been watching for at least five minutes"
I looked back and saw that two extremely beautiful girls were watching us. Both extremely pale and had gold eyes. What a strange eye color. One was short and pixie like. The other girl kind of looked like me. A lot like me but only a few years older. Something about her looked really familiar to.
The other girl got her phone out of her purse and called someone. I quickly lost interest in those two.
"They're kind of weird" Ricky said.
"Yes they are" I added.
We finished our cheeseburgers quickly and went to walk the mall in the little free time we were given.
"Hey look Ricky there's a sports store!" I shouted a little too excitedly after we had been walking for awhile.
"It looks awesome"
"Oh come on" I said.
I headed right for the baseball bat section. It didn't take me long to find a new one. I couldn't stop smiling.
"Look Edward there she is" I heard someone say. Whoever it was sounded like she was about to cry.
"It's okay Bella" I heard the boy who I assumed was Edward say.
I looked back and saw the same two girls from earlier except this time there was a boy with them. A very beautiful boy. His hair color was the exact same as mine which was weird because bronze was a rare hair color.
"Well Edward are we right?" she asked.
The way Edward looked at me was strange. It was like he did know me. I was starting to feel really creeped out.
He whispered something to the two girls who suddenly looked very sad for some reason. They looked happy earlier but now looked really sad.
"Nessie I think we should go now if we don't hurry up we're going to run out of time and get in trouble"
"Since when has the threat of getting in trouble ever scared you?" I laughed.
"It doesn't. I just don't feel like getting in trouble today"
"You don't feel like getting in trouble?" I laughed. "What happened to the Ricky I know?"
What he did next shocked the hell out of me. He kissed me on my left cheek and I liked it. It made me blush and my heart skipped several beats.
I jumped when I heard something, or rather someone growling behind me.
I looked back and saw that it was that Edward boy and Bella girl growling. Like actually growling and snarling like animals.
I didn't have time to think about it much because that was when the shaking suddenly started.
