Okay I've had to go back and make a correction on Chapter 3 dealing with ages. Before I had wrote Bella was over two hundred years older than Serenity now I've changed it to over one hundred. And for now to try to make things less confusing I'll type in the years the years they were born. Isabella Swan born in 1566, Noah Swan born in 1696, Serenity Swan born in 1722, Robert Swan born in 1935. Those are the years I have decided.
Walking into the biology room Angela and I went our separate ways. She walked over to her lab table while I made my way to the front of the room. Passing one of the Cullens, Edward, Jessica had called him.
Going up to the biology teacher, Mr. Banner, I noticed out of the corner of my eye Edward starring at me maybe even glaring a little. After signing the slip of paper and handing me books without any silly introductions Mr. Banner sent me to the only seat available, the one next to Edward.
Stumbling, purposely, I took my seat eyes starring forward as class began. It was a lesson I had already heard several times before. Nothing new for me to learn, this would of course make it another boring class. Except this class was different since throughout the whole class I could feel Edward's eyes, black as coal I noted, boring into the side of my head. I couldn't figure out what it was he wanted. Or why I felt so many different emotions sitting next to him? Emotions that made me feel uncomfortable, but at the same time comfortable!? It was all confusing, frustrating, and pleasing.
The hour ended what seemed after a millennium. Students packed up their things and went to their next class. I did the same and could still feel his eyes on me it was starting to be tormenting. But then…I couldn't feel them anymore. Looking up I saw Edward walking out of the class slowly, as if he was debating with himself.
"Hi, you must be Isabella Swan?" a voice asked from behind me.
I jumped slightly, startled for once in a very long time. "Bella, actually," I replied composing myself and turning around to face the stranger.
In front of me was a baby-faced boy with blonde hair, smiling lightly. He reminded me of several boys that I had met over the years. Knowing all them I could already since he was probably going to be a little over friendly.
"I'm Mike. Sorry if I startled you," he said as I gathered the rest of my stuff.
"No it's okay, honestly, but I have to go to gym now." His smile grew a little, and I knew instantly why by the look on his face. I didn't need to be a physic to know what was going to happen.
"What a coincidence my last class is gym to. Why don't I show you the way," he said as a statement rather than a question. He wasn't going to take no without argument so I simply nodded my head.
We were a few steps out of class before Mike started to talk again. "So…what did you say to Cullen?"
"What do you mean?"
"Well, he was just acting strange, stranger than usually anyway. I just thought you might have said something to him that caused it." Mike raked a hand through his hair.
I shook my head. "No we…we actually didn't say a word to each other." With that the conversation ended with Mike looking a little pleased.
Soon gym was over, and I had made a complete fool of myself and not purposefully. My mind was wrapped around so many other more important things and…Edward Cullen. I couldn't concentrate on the volleyball game I was put in. Now people really would think I was a klutz after that game, which was what I still wanted, I think.
After gym was over I walked over to the office to hand in my paperwork. Outside the rain had drifted away, but the wind was strong, and colder. I wrapped my arms around myself. Reaching the office I saw Noah seated in the chair starring coldly inside the office, which worried me. Nevertheless I entered the office without a second thought, my brother's eyes following my movements almost glaring through the office window.
However, when I walked into the warm office I almost turned around and walked out. There I saw Edward Cullen standing right in front of me. Talking to the receptionist in hushed tones, but I could still make out what they were. Edward apparently wanted his schedule changed so he wouldn't have to take Biology. The only class we had together, a coincidence not likely. But why, what could I have possibly done, other than existing?
The door opened again a cold breeze filling the room followed by a girl walking in and leaving a note in the wire basket on top of the desk. After she left Edward turned to look at me tensely, glare actually. His gaze was as cold as stone and chilled me more than the wind could.
"Fine, I see it's impossible," Edward replied to the receptionist even though he was still staring at me. His voice was as smooth as velvet, but sounded deadly at the same time. He left quickly and quietly past me and through the door. On the way I could see Noah starring at him angrily, almost glaring but not quite.
"How did your first day go, dear?" the receptionist asked me. She didn't seem to notice the strange situation that had just unfolded in front of her or maybe she was just ignoring it.
"Fine," I lied. My voice was slightly weak, but of course she looked convinced of the lie.
"That's good your siblings seemed to have a fine day as well. Except for Katie, she was a nervous-wreck. I hope she'll be okay."
"Oh yeah, she's just taking the move harder than the rest of us. It'll take some time for her adjust," I replied before walking out of the office. Katie literally had all the time in the world to adjust to the moves. The real most frightening question was what time would it be for her to make the moves on her own.
"Of course," I heard the receptionist reply before my brother and I walked off out of the building and towards my truck.
When we were a safe way distance from the office Noah hissed through his teeth, "I want to move."
"Why?" I asked. Noah was never one to move suddenly, none of us in the family were. Moving was one of the biggest drags for us.
"That Cullen kid, Edwin or Eduardo…" he started as I cut him off.
"Edward." It annoyed me greatly that he didn't get his name right and it shouldn't. I shouldn't care about anything that dealt with him, but I did. There was no questioning it that I had a crush on him.
"Yeah him, did you see the way he acted? The way he looked at you," Noah growled.
Never had I seen my brother act like this, so over-protective. At times I thought he never would take on the stand of an overprotective brother. Especially when John was around Noah never acted anything like the way he was acting now. It was strange to see him like this.
"I don't know what you're talking about," I lied as Noah glared at me.
"Are you blind?" he hissed slowly through his teeth. "It looked like he wanted to eat you right then and there. Just slash your throat."
Looking back it did seem that way. His eyes did have a very dark, murderous look to them. But why would this guy I never met want to kill me or eat me as Noah so lightly put it?
"Since we did you take on the overprotective brother role?" I asked curiously.
"I…I just don't want to see you get hurt is all," Noah replied softly. "You are my sister after all."
"You sure didn't feel that way when John was around. Why the sudden change in heart?" I asked as Noah shook his head.
"It's a far different situation, Isabella. John couldn't kill you without killing himself that's that, but Edward…well let's just say I'm sure it wouldn't bother him all that much if he killed you both." Noah eyes started darting around the parking lot. Almost as if he was searching for Edward.
It was then that one name came to mind so suddenly almost forcefully. It had been the way Noah was looking around that had triggered a memory of the past. Now the Cullens behavior seemed to fit perfectly, to be explained by this one word. I could only imagine Noah's reaction now if I told him that the Cullens and Edward were vampires. He would literally flip out.
The last and first time I had seen a vampire was back in the 1700s. They of course were not friendly ones as these Cullens seemed to be and I hadn't read anything about recent deaths in this town. Not that I was one who had to worry. This move just got a whole lot more interesting.
Nothing more to say, but review.
