Thanks to the review contributors! I want to say that I too thought that Edward was OOC in some places. But, I was too excited to start the story. Sorry it took a while to get this chapter. Writer's block. This is probably one of my worst chapters. :-( Here goes…
Chapter 4
Edward POV
Mia leaped right into Forks High. It was her choice and she decided that she could handle being around so many humans. Alice and I seconded that. She held back almost effortlessly now, and she could keep the physical contact issues under control. She rarely glazed over when she touched somebody. However, she knew all about the deal with James, Laurent, and Victoria. She was awfully informed and I never told her.
Mia POV
It had been pretty rough to transition in the blink of an eye. My life had taken a sharp turn for the weirdest. I was depressed for about a week about everything that I had lost. My family, my friends, my...life. But somehow I was lifted out of the pit of darkness and was happy for a day. (That could have been because of Jasper but it helped.) That was when I discovered that not all was lost. I had gained a new family and friends. Sure, my life was different, but not necessarily for the horrible. I stayed out of that hole and started as a sophomore at Forks High School. Bella, Edward, and Alice were juniors and I was the rare new kid Bella had once been. By the end of my first day, Edward was sick of seeing my face. I guess a was on a lot of minds. It was amusing for me to see how people stared at me like I was some rare painting. Though no one approached me, I wasn't sad. I knew that they should be intimidated by me. I never felt the need to really look at myself before until I saw how everyone in the Cullen family's eyes changed color, from black to gold, depending upon how thirsty they were. Except me. My eyes were only one of the differences between me and them. My eyes before I had been...changed had been a stormy blue. I still maintained that color except with specks of gold here and there. That wasn't normal. And when I was thirsty they became purple. It was all very confusing to me. And to everyone else for that matter.
I jumped out of the Volvo as we arrived at school. School was the only thing that kept me from going nuts over boredom. And I hadn't even liked school to begin with. But when you have eight extra hours when you should be sleeping on your hands, Life can be pretty repetitive. Though I was clueless as I set foot in the parking lot of school that day, that repetitive cycle was to be broken soon.
Bella POV
This was crazy. After a normal boring day, (Though for me no day was boring with Edward) I was invited to come home with Edward because Alice knew that Charlie's cruiser would break down. It was pretty hysterical because Emmet, Jasper, and Mia (sigh) had a quarrel over gender and Jasper made Emmet cry, Jasper crushed a table when Mia pushed him, and soon everyone was quarreling. I was really just debating because Edward forbid anyone to do anything to me. This was one of those times when I REALLY wanted to be changed. Suddenly, just as I was about to point out that girl are just as capable (if not better) than boys at anything, the door was knocked politely on then smacked down. I recognized that face that walked over the door. It was Jane. That was disturbing to me. With my luck, I didn't know why I didn't see trouble coming. Edward rushed to my side and Jasper and Alice stood in front of Mia. "We heard you had a newborn," Jane said so smoothly and it sounded just curious but was that even possible? Obviously, she still smelled me and her face was puzzled. "But, it seems it's not who we thought it was," she stared me down and I could tell she was testing the resistance I had had in our last encounter to her "power." She gave up, eventually. "I should like to see who it is, however," I saw Mia freeze stiff in the corner of my eye. She knew who Jane was. I didn't know how, but I guess it didn't matter. Jane inflicted pain upon Jasper and ALice was by his side leaving Mia wide open. Jane stared intently and Mia crouched down and let out stifled cries and screams. Jane stared harder. Mia screamed. It hurt me to see Jane doing that. I lunged for Mia, but Edward pushed me back. Jane finally looked away from her. I sighed in relief, quietly. "You do know you are not supposed to have newborns," Mia looked up as Jane spoke. Jane looked back in pity then froze. She noticed the eyes. Mia was blazing purple, slowly lightening by the second. "Dammit," she whispered. I had no clue what had triggered in her head but she smiled, eerily. "So, you're the abnormality that Aro sensed," she sighed looking at her. We were all confused. "I knew it would have something to do with you, Edward," she smiled at him, Edward looked disgusted, I grinned. "She's in danger and will cause trouble to us all, it would be best if she came with me back to Italy," she talked bluntly. "Never," Edward was so stiff as he answered Jane's request. "Very well, when trouble strikes, I warned you."
