Hey all –hangs head in sham-
Im so^ infinity sorry. I know it's been almost a year (!) since I last updated. It's just been a hectic year and writing unfortunately just had to be pushed to the side. Plus I was not really in a writing frame of mind.
But enough excuses.
To all the lovely, lovely people who read, reviewed, story alerted or favourited (ome I loveyou for the massiveego boost that gave me) if you still for some reason want to read my story you shall be happy to know I'm back and so ready to write. I've already done drafts for the next couple of chapters and I'll be posting those soon.
Again I'm so incredibly sorry. But I hope you enjoy this chapter.
Disclaimer: Unfortunately Bella and Edward didn't come to me in a dream. Instead they chose Stephanie Meyer. So all of these familiar, beloved characters belong to her. I just own the unfamiliar, unloved ones.
They were even more…beautiful up close. Especially the god-like one. Too beautiful for me.
They shuffled in like school boys that had been sent to the headmistress's office. A very unimpressed headmistress.
"Sit there" Miss Masako snapped, pointing at our table. Rose and Alice starting trying to subtly primp themselves. Just as the boys were sitting down there was a sudden squeal.
"Oh my god! It's The Living Dead"
I turned around to see the teenage girls fanning themselves, pointing and giggling. One of them even seemed to be hyperventilating.
"Be quiet please." It seemed Miss Masako was as unimpressed by their childishness as me. Then again, who wouldn't be? "Now"
Every turned round and stopped staring. No one wanted Miss Masako's wrath turned on them.
"So… you're in a band?' asked Alice while leaning ever so subtly forward towards her pick.
"Yes ma'am" replied the blonde who seemed as taken with Alice as she was him. "I play the guitar. My name's Jasper. Jasper Whitlock."
"Smooth" muttered the brawny one under his breath before grinning and winking at Rose. "Emmett's the name and drumming is the game."
Scarily Rose grinned back. "So you must be pretty good with your hands then."
At this the other two snorted. Loudly.
When they stopped laughing the bronze haired god finally spoke.
"If he's good with his hands then I'm brilliant with my mouth. I'm Edward and I'm the lead singer."
As he spoke he looked straight at me and smirked. I could have sworn my heart stopped.
During all this we had apparently missed the beginning of what we supposed to be doing and our teacher was not impressed to say the least.
"Really. If you don't want to be here then just leave. I am trying to teach origami here, not run a dating service." She surveyed us grimly.
We all decided not to risk getting her any angrier so unfortunately the conversation stopped.
-*-
A hour later we had learnt a lot about the boys.
Jasper was the calm one who settled them all done. He had already finished and was holding a whispered conversation with Alice under the pretence of helping her. She wasn't complaining though.
Emmett was like a child. A child with behaviour problems. He had already screwed up his fifth paper swan. And then chucked that swan at Rosalie. Bizarrely she giggled. It was bizarre because not only did Rose never giggle but she wasn't really into immature guys either.
The world was going crazy.
Because then there was Edward. Because even though Edward was so gorgeous he kind of hurt to look at, he was talking to me. And laughing with me. And obsessing over his paper swan.
Apparently he obsessed over things a lot.
"It's fine Edward. Really" I managed to spit out through my laughter.
He looked up at me from his paper swan and shook his head.
"It's a swan Bella. It can't just be fine. It has to beautiful."
At this Alice finally decided to disentangle herself from Jasper and join in the conversation.
"Did you know Bella's last name is Swan?"
"No I didn't" Edward replied, smiling at me in a strange way and extending his hand. "I guess you had better have this then."
I reached out to take the swan but hand accidentally grazed his. A jolt of heat seemed to run through me. When I looked up, blushing, Edward was staring at me.
Just then the moment was ruined with Miss Masako suddenly exclaiming "Oh hasn't time flown. Well, hopefully I'll see you all next time."
I shook my head to try and clear it. I really was getting too obsessed with Edward and I'd only meet him an hour ago.
"See you next week then?" he asked, only fuelling my delusional fantasies.
"Defiantly" I replied "I just love origami. Wouldn't miss it."
The boys walked out of the room, managing to look so sexy while they did.
-*-
I managed to make it to the car before squealing but only just.
"He is so caring!"
"He is so funny!"
"He is so perfect!"
We all looked at each and burst into laughter.
"Well Alice" Rosalie managed to get out between laughing fits "I never thought I'd say this. But origami lessons were a brilliant idea."
There you go =] Hope you enjoyed. I know it's short. Well I don't want to have to beg for reviews but they would be very very lovely. And soon I may end up begging.
