The next few days where kind of weird. Some day Jasper would be my friend while on other day's it seemed like he hated me. I walked over the school just in time to go on the Social Studies field trip. I looked over my friend beckoning me to come with them. I walked over getting on the bus. My seat was right next to Josh and he was angry with me. He had been made at me ever since I started to talk to Jasper. "hey um Norah?" I looked over at him happy he was finally speaking to me again. "Um.. could you move to another seat I promised someone they could sit with me." I looked at him with disbelief. On top of that I was hurt. I quickly got up and sat down in front of Aly by myself. Aly wasn't speaking much to me either. The only one keeping my onto the group was Sarah and Justin. I leaned my head on the cold window sad and hurt. I looked over to see Jasper on the other buss he was watching me I turned my eyes back down as I remembered I was hurt.
The rest of the bus ride was filled with silent talking to me and loud to everyone else. I felt like everyone was doing this on purpose just to see me pissed off. I had done nothing wrong. So I talked to a Cullen it's not like it illegal. I felt a jolt as the bus came to a halt signing we where at the museum. I filed off the bus ignoring the talking of the teacher. I watched as everyone spread out and my friends left me. I guess I shouldn't really call them friends anymore, more like deserters. I was hurt but as I looked at the Cullen's entering I got pissed. It was their fault none of my friends wanted to talk to me. I walked around the museum alone hoping to go home soon as possible. "Norah!" said a voice. I looked up to see Alice standing there. I thought about it for a second and nodded.
"yeah?" I said knowing I was maybe in the way of something.
"When we get back to school want to have lunch with us?" I shook me head.
"I shouldn't I'm not really hungry." I said.
"No problem, just come hang with us then?"
'Fine, sure no problem." I said as she squealed, and hugged me. I watched her skip happy away.
"Sorry about her." I heard Jasper voice say. I turned to see him standing there looking so great. i smiled and shrugged.
"there is nothing bad about her...ish" I said laughing as he laughed along. "She is a very happy person I can tell you that." I said smiling. a bit. I guess being deserted from my friends made me see the real him. He was nice and sweet and funny. He was everything that made me cheer up. I looked down a bit remembering my friends deserted me again. It wasn't like them. I'll never guess what ever entered their minds to do that kind of thing.
"What's wrong?" jasper said as I looked up at him his eyes filled with a hurt kind of feeling. I never would of guessed that, would happen. I never seemed like the type to show emotion other than happiness and the other cold expression.
"My friends, They've well in general they've deserted me. They just stopped talking to me. One by one. I don't know it's been happening since Friday." I wanted to take that back because as I looked up i saw that he was blaming himself. "Don't worry I'm fine though." I said. Punching his arm a bit. I pulled back my hand and yelped in pain. I pulled my hand close to me and felt a tear slid down my cheek. He grabbed my hand and made sure it wasn't broken. "I'm so sorry!" He repeated a million times. I laughed a bit as a few tears slid down. "Don't worry, You're just really strong." I said feeling his cold touch under my hand made me shiver he was so cold it was like being next to ice. I laughed a bit blinking back anymore tears. The pain soon went away under his cold touch and I smiled at him. "Your so cold it's like having portable ice." I said laughing a bit. chuckled nervously and smiled a bit. A little bit later we both when a different way as I got onto my bus. He confused me so much.
I started to think about in on the bus. He had golden eyes that went black sometimes. He acted very strange when I got a paper cut. He is very strong and pops out of no where sometimes. This was strange. I bus came to a stop and I got off. Everyone rushed for lunch. I entered the lunch room and saw my so called friends laughing as I looked around for a spot to sit. I smiled as the Cullen's came in Alice hugged me squealing a bit. I blinked a few times hearing the high pitched squeal in my ear. Jasper laughed with Elliot. "Hey you coming." Jasper said.
"Yeah sure, once my ears stop ringing ." I said laughing with him. Alice sat me next to her and Elliot and next to Jasper. Bella came in with Edward and soon Emmett and Rosalie. Rose looked at me weirdly. Emmett smiled and gave me a big bear hug. Edward stared at me, and Bella greeted me kindly. I looked over at my ex friends. They where very shocked and I laughed a bit. The lunch went by well and I had started to make friends with Bella and Emmett. After school I walked down the parking lot. I walked out of sit and into the streets, I looked over at my house and saw Amanda and some guys car was in the drive way. My eyes traveled up to the window and saw them moving about in Amanda's bedroom. This meant I was not going home now. I sighed and walked down the streets I soon saw it was night time. The street lamps went up and cars started coming less and less. I was sitting in the park just swing on some swings. Nothing special just waiting for Amanda's warning to get home.
I heard foot steps as I saw someone standing there. They had perfect skin and reminded me so much of the Cullen's and the way they look. I waved to them and rolled my eyes back. They where kind of far but as I looked up they ran over to me in seconds and hand their hands around my neck. Their eyes where a dark black. She felt fear in case her mind as she looked around. She hoped for help and closed her eyes knowing she was either going to die or someone saves her. She knew she was going to die and felt a tear slid down her cheek. Aloud bang was heard as they turned to see Jasper standing there."Put her down." he said as Alice and Elliot popped out of no where. The chuckled as they set me down. I felt myself dropped to the group hitting my head on the side of the swing set.
I woke up a looked around. I was on my bed. The window was open and my head hurt, 'was it just a dream.' I thought stretching over to turn on my lamp. It all seemed to real. Like I really remembered being the the park that night. Feeling the cold wind, wait I really do feel cold wind. I looked over to my window, walking over I shut it. "Maybe it wasn't a dream."I said to myself. I rushed back to bed. Tomorrow I will ask them. The sun rose the next day and it shown through the clouds. I missed the sunlight and I loved it.I walked out of my house feeling the warm sunlight on my face. I stopped for a moment to breath in the moment and I was off for school.
I got to school and saw my old friends looking at me. Josh ran over "good morning." he said. I looked up surprised he walk talking to me. Surprised and a little weired out. I gave a small nod as to signing I said hello back he smiled a bit more. " Look I'm sorry we acted like jerks the other day it was just to know if you could you know survive with out us. I mean we do it to everyone , they even did it to me. It's hard you know. I mean I feel your pain, but now I'm going to beg for your forgiveness." he said giving me a puppy dog look. "Please?" i sighed a nodded. He smiled and hugged me close. We walked over to the rest of th group as I looked around for their cars.
"They're, not coming." i looked over to the voice that said it. It was Aly. She ran over and hugged me, as if being sorry for what she did. "The Cullen's never come here during sunny day's. Doc Cullen takes them out hiking and stuff. I wish my parents would do that because this day in fabulous. But sadly we are going surfing at La Push... want to come?"
"I don't know."
"Oh come on please go to La Push with us!" Kyle begged. I looked over at josh who was begging too. I smiled a bit, another fake one and nodded. School went by fast but Social studies wasn't the same with out Jasper and everyone. The last bell rang and I looked around seeing Josh there. he grabbed me pulling me along to the car. Everyone seemed to be having a nice time as we rode down to La Push. I on the other hand was not. No would talk to me and I just thought it was awkward and put my ipod on to drown everything out. Once we got to the beach there where a few tall tan boys on the other side playing soccer. Everyone jumped in the water but me. I layed back and enjoyed the sun. I felt the soccer ball hit my head as I shot up looking over at the boy that did it to me. But when I saw them all I could think about is how they needed a hair cut. "Sorry!" they yelled as I sighed and sat back down.
"Jake!" Sarah squeeled and hugged him. I turned to see the tan one in the middle. I looked over at his friends and smiled slightly. "You haven't met the newbie. This is Norah, Norah Johnson." She said pushing all of the boys over to see me. I rolled my eyes and looked back at the ocean not even waiting for an hello. 'She is not really a people person." Sarah laughed.
"Yeah more of a Cullen." Aly laughed yelling at us. I turned over to see the boy looked at me weird. "Yeah, she hangs with Jasper sometimes." Aly said laughing again. The boys looked at me more weirdly.
"Do you always look like that or are you just pissed at me and giving me a weird look." I said
"Haha Nah it's just you really shouldn't be hanging with the Cullen's, it said they are ...." One of them looked fake scared and looked around "Vampires." He laughed and then looked at me laughing with the others. I pushed out a laugh but it made me think. Jasper's cold skin, his eyes changing colors, and the way he acted after I got a paper cut. This could be...
"I have to go can someone bring me home?" Everyone looked around
"But, its such a great day you can't miss it!" Sarah squealed.
"Fine I'll walk!" i said getting up and walked away from them.
"wait up I'll give you a ride!" I turned around to see the guy called Jake. I sighed and looked at him. He lead me to his bike. After a long time of trying to direct him to my House he finally arrived. "Look Norah?" I nodded. "Just watch out, the cullen toke a friend of mine away, and I don't want it to happen to you." I shivered as a wind blew by me. The clouds where coming back in which meant the Cullens with it. I nodded "Thanks!" I yelled as I ran into my house. I didn't even say hi to Amanda or hear about her new boyfriend, I ran into my room and turned on my computer. I spent the whole night looking up vampires the way they looked I even watched a movie or two about them. I woke up that morning my head on the Key bored, My computer shooting error at me for hitting shift to much. I turned it off and then looked over at the clock. "Shit!" I yelled. I put a T-shirt that i wasn't sure I had worn only a few days ago and pants. The shoes didn't match anything but I didn't care. I rushed out the door and ran for the school. Half way there I remembered I had forgotten a jacket. The cold air stung against my skin as I held my arms together chattering my teeth.
I arrived at school and looked around. I saw Jasper's car sitting there and I smiled. I ran into the school still chattering and freezing as hell. I entered the Social studies room and looked around embarrassed. I quietly walked to my seat and sat down. Everyone went back on talking as my teeth chattered. I looked over at Jasper and smiled slightly with my teeth chattering.
"What happened?" He asked.
"I was late so I ran out of the house with out my coat on and I notice half way on my walk to school." he nodded and then kept working. My smiled dropped as I remembered what I found on the Internet, vampires? I looked back at Alice and Elliot as they smiled at me. I could only picture fangs on them. I sighed rolling my head onto my desk. This was going to be a long day. Lunch time rolled around and Alice looked over at me as I sat down at my friends table. I looked over at the Cullen's and Edward looked at me and then said something to Jasper. Jasper's eyes widened as he looked away from me. Something was happening that I didn't know about. Alice looked at me and then looked down her smile not on her face. No one else would look at me. I flinched my fist in and looked down.
At the end of the day I looked over at my friends that at the Cullen. Jasper looked up and saw my face. 'I need to talk to you.' I mouth and walked down the parking lot and into the streets. The walked home was cold but I was stopped half way in. The door opened and I looked in to see Jasper. He nodded and I got in. "What is it?" He asked.
"Ok well," I started, "The other day I found myself in trouble and you had incredible speeds and strength and saved me. But when I woke up I was in bed. But I don't think I was dreaming. I went to La Push and some people where making fun of you guys and called you vampires." I looked to see his hands clench around the wheel. 'Then it all clicked your speed, your strength, the way you look, and your eyes. The day I met you I got a paper cut you got black eyes..."
'So you think I'm a Vampire!" he said interrupting me." That's impossible." He said.
"I know I'm right and I'm going to prove it!" I said. He chuckled know I had no proof. "OK so your say If I grabbed this paper." I said getting one out of my bag. He looked at me worried. "And gave myself another paper cut you wouldn't attack me right now?" I said drawing the paper closer and closer to me skin. He swerved the car and the paper flew out of my hands. "Hey what did you do that for."
"Ok look you've found me out but I'm... I'm a monster." He said stopping the car. "I kill and I eat blood. I'm a killing monster.. and I'm... I'm not so in control the smell of blood makes me lose control. And now you're gonna go off and tell people aren't you." I looked at him to shocked to even speak. To many thoughts where running through out my head.
