Twilight through Alice's Eyes chapter 16
A/N: I'll work on putting this up today but I should really be working on me History and English projects. No one's guessed what was wrong yet so one more chapter after this and I think I'll tell you what it is that I wrote wrong. Here's chapter 16.
Chapter 16
APOV
The next day during first period, Biology, I hung out in Edward's car listening to his music. Where else was I supposed to hide? He was going to do the same thing during his Biology class. Edward decided to sit with Bella at lunch so it would just be Jasper, Rosalie, Emmett, and me at our usual lunch table.
Edward decided to approach Bella before school today. From the looks of it I think he scared her. He told me that he was going to ask her to go to Seattle with him so I figured I'd search for a vision of them together. I didn't find one of them in Seattle but I found one of them in Edward's favorite field. I'm assuming that meant that he did ask her but that there was some reason that they wouldn't be going to Seattle that day.
The class ended and I went to all of my other classes and then there was lunch. Edward sat by himself for a little while.
"Edward Cullen is staring at you again. I wonder why he's sitting alone today." Jessica Stanley just couldn't mind her own business, could she? I looked over toward them, not enough for them to notice that I was looking though. Edward motioned for Bella to come over. "Does he mean you?" Jessica sounded insulted that he was talking to Bella and not her. I hated the fact that some people just couldn't be happy for their friends. They always want everything for themselves.
Bella walked over to the table that Edward was sitting at and just stood by the chair. "Why don't you sit with me today?" From the sound of his voice he was smiling. There was a long pause between when he said that and when she started talking.
"This is different."
"Well. . . I decided as long as I was going to hell, I might as well do it thoroughly." Edward rushed all of the word after 'well'. I couldn't believe he just said that to her. She would never know what he meant and besides that it could endanger our secret if he went to talking any further.
There was another long and awkward pause between them. "You know I don't have any idea what you mean."
"I know. I think your friends are angry with me for stealing you." I looked over to where Bella's friends were sitting and they were all very curiously staring at Edward and Bella wanting to know what was going on between them.
"They'll survive."
"I may not give you back, though." He sounded absolutely wicked as he said this and I'm sure he knew that too. The look on Bella's face was fear and worry. Edward started laughing. "You look worried."
"No, surprised actually. What brought all this on?" After that I pretty much tuned them out. I knew that their conversation would pretty much be about what they thought of each other and other random things like that. Edward and Bella were some of the last ones in the cafeteria. A waved a quick good bye at Edward and went on to European History.
The rest of the day was the same boring blur as usual. Nothing new, all repeats. I went out to the car after meeting up with Jasper, Emmett, and Rosalie. Edward was already in it and he looked like he was really deep in though. This was one of those times that I wished I was the one who could read minds.
"What's wrong, Edward. You seem a little out of it."
"It was just something that happened today in biology."
"Did you actually go? I warned you not to, Edward."
"I didn't actually go, but Bella came out and was pretty much passed out."
"So, what does this have to do with you being out of it? A lot of people faint when they see their own-or someone else's-blood."
"She didn't faint because she saw the blood. She fainted because she smelt the blood." As a vampire I've seen a lot of weird things but this by far was the weirdest. Humans can't smell blood, but somehow Bella can. Is Bella really human or is she something else?
"How could she smell the blood? Humans can't smell blood."
"I know, that's the thing. If she can smell blood is she really only human or is she something else? Is that why she smelt so good to me?"
"I don't know Edward. I think that she's human but if she can smell blood who knows." We were quiet for the rest of the car ride home, still lost in our thoughts of Bella smelling blood. That was one question that I don't think we'll ever have answered.
A/N: Okie Dokie, that's another chapter down. I'm tired and I have school tomorrow so I'm going to bed. Good night guys. Don't forget to review. ;)
