Author's Note: So…this is the REAL chapter 2!! Well…no it's not…kinda…just read it…there's only one teeny tiny difference…yeah….
I smiled again as Edward held me close to his cold body. He steered me towards our first class.
Edward was forced to let go of me so I could sit in my seat. Of course, he was right next to me so it didn't really matter. I felt his marble hand take mine as our teacher droned on about Calculus.
After several more classes, it was time for lunch. His eyes were a surprisingly dark shade of gold. I looked at him curiously, I could have sworn that last class his eyes had been much lighter.
"What's wrong?" I questioned, slightly dreading the answer. He blinked and said, his voice like velvet, "Nothing, love, just eat." I threw him a weak grin and bit into my sandwich. Soon, Alice came to join us. Her small figure was almost as thin as the chair she sat in.
"Hey guys," She said cheerfully, leaning over to kiss my cheek. She abruptly turned to Edward, who nodded once. I looked between the two of them, silently asking for an explanation; Edward shook his head. I sighed quietly, and continued to eat.
When I was done with my sandwich, I started on my apple. Yum.
Lunch passed quickly, and it was time for Biology. Edward dumped my empty tray and his full one into the garbage can.
Edward settled himself into the seat beside me once we were in class. Mr. Banner was just about to give the class the instructions for the day, when the classroom door opened. A girl stood in the doorway. She shuffled in, her face bright red. She handed Mr. Banner a small slip, which he signed. She glanced around the classroom; there were no empty seats. Mr. Banner sighed, and let her sit at his desk. She bent her head down over her notebook. It was then I realized how peculiar the girl's skin looked. It was a pale blue-grey. What surprised me the most was how young she looked, she looked like she was thirteen at most, nowhere near seventeen or eighteen. I glanced over at Edward, he seemed to be concentrating very hard on something.
"Edward?" I whispered, so Mr. Banner wouldn't hear. His jaw relaxed, and he looked puzzled.
"I-I can't read her mind." My eyes widened in alarm. The rest of the class passed slowly. The girl didn't look up from her notebook.
The bell vibrated throughout the classroom, and the girl scrambled to pick up her books. She dropped them on the way out, but surprisingly picked them up in thirty seconds. I raised my eyebrows at Edward, he shrugged and walked me to my next class... Gym. This was the only class I didn't have with Edward, it was the worst one. It was amazing that I couldn't walk across a perfectly flat surface without tripping. I insisted on him not being in it, it was embarrassing enough without my boyfriend there... or vampire..friend...thing.
Anyway, the point is that he's not human. At the door Edward kissed me briefly on the cheek, my heart pounded as usual, and he walked away.
I was beginning to regret that I didn't have this class with him.
Today, we were starting soccer. I fell down every five minutes or so, tripping over my own feet... or the soccer ball, sometimes it was hard to tell which one. At one point, I actually twisted my ankle and had to sit out for the rest of the period. To my relief, the final bell rang. My ankle was a lot better.
"Hi, how's your ankle?" A watery voice asked, making me jump. I turned and saw the girl from my Biology class looking at me with a concerned expression. I suddenly realized how strange her eye color was. It was a deep green, like seaweed.
"Fine, thanks." I smiled at her, and she went pink.
"No problem."
"Did you just move here? I haven't seen you around before." The girl shrugged. I couldn't help but notice how dark her wavy hair was, almost black.
"I used to go to school in California, but I decided to go here, instead. I like the rain here better." I ignored the strange comment and didn't hesitate to reply.
"Cool, I'll see you around sometime." She smiled and nodded, starting to head for the door.
Stumbling with embarrassment, since I was the only one left in the gym, I quickly followed.
Edward stood waiting for me outside the door, leaning casually against the wall with his arms folded across his chest.
"Hi," I said, smiling hugely.
"Hello." His gold eyes still looked frustrated at not being able to read the strange girl's mind, but he didn't show it in any other way. He took my hand gently in his, and started leading me towards his car.
"Will you come over later?" I questioned, once I was nestled comfortably in the grey seat.
"Well... we'll see. You might want to be alone with Charlie after... dinner." I let it go for the time being, and leaned my head back on the warm seat. Edward's hand held mine, his thumb softly caressing my fingers.
