New Student

It was three days after I'd walked through the door and had Charlie ask me how my shopping trip went. Three days since Alice Cullen had asked me to go shopping with her next weekend. Today was Friday. The last day of the week.

Everyone was talking about something. Usually I wasn't one for gossiping, but this seemed pretty big. For a small town. I walked over to Jessica. "Hey Jess. What's up?"

"You mean you don't know?" She gushed and before waiting for an answer continued. "The Cullens apparently have another brother that goes to boarding school, but is going to be here today!"

"Wow, that's pretty big. Did you know they had another brother?" I was curious. Alice hadn't mentioned him at all.

"No, but the exciting thing is… HE"S SINGAL!!" She shrieked.

"Aren't you going to the dance with Mike?" She changed her mind so fast it was hard to keep up.

"Oh yeah. Well I guess you could ask him to go with you." She gave me a slight glare before turning away to go find someone else to tell about the Cullen's long lost brother. It was almost as if she blamed me for her going out with Mike. That's what she'd wanted a week ago. I sighed and headed for English.

All throughout the morning all I heard was about how hott the new Cullen was or how he was stealing all the girls. I was actually starting to hope that I might have a class with him just so I could see what everyone was talking about. Finally lunch came.

Everyone's head was turned in the same direction. Staring at the new kid. My breath caught in my throat. He was even better than they'd described him. That was probably because there was no real way to describe him.

He had messy, bronze hair that looked casual, but perfect. He was boyish compared to his to his two other brothers that sat on either side of him. He was still more muscular than any of the other guys in school.

They almost looked wary, as if they expected something bad to happen. They also appeared to be looking for someone.

I stood next to Jessica in line as both of us stared at him. Something had finally caused her to stop talking. I wasn't very hungry, but I bought a bag of chips anyway. I sat down at my usual table. They were all huddled together talking. It was obvious about what.

I looked over my shoulder to where everyone was staring. A pair of sunglasses met my gaze. I hadn't noticed earlier that he was wearing them. Even though the sunglasses hid his eyes, I could tell he was concentrating. His face was smooth as marble except for the lines that showed he was frustrated.

He still appeared to be intently staring at me. I looked around like in the movies to make sure. Nope, it was me alright. Alice, who was sitting across from him, saw me and gave me her award winning smile. This was enough to cause me to brake my connected gaze with her brother. I stared down at the contents of my tray.

I felt, oddly, shaken. He had so much control over me and I hadn't even said a word to him. I glanced up under my lashes to find him still looking in my direction. I blushed and looked back down, but not before I saw a muscle in his neck tighten. I didn't know what was up, but suddenly I was happy we didn't have any classes together.

I hurried to my next class, biology. Right after I was seated, he walked into the room and stepped up to the teacher. "Hello, I'm Edward Cullen and I've been assigned to this class." I looked at the space next to me. It was the only seat open in the class.
