The next morning was a blur as classes came and went. Soon enough Biology was starting and this time Edward decided to join the class. Well this should be fun.

It was lab day as Mr. Banner started handing out the assignments. We had to identify onion roots. Simple, I could easily do this in my sleep. I smiled, all knowing, that this project would take a matter of minutes at least for me.

"Ladies first," Edward said gesturing to the microscope. It was the first thing he had said since entering the classroom.

I nodded briefly and looked into the lens at the first slide. "Prophase," I said in a matter of seconds before lifting my head up.

"Mind if I take a look?" he asked.

I smirked at him. "Questioning my analysis, Cullen. By all means see for yourself."

He stared at me for a few minutes before looking into the microscope. "Prophase," he said almost sounding like he was sighing. Disappointed? Hmmm…

I just nodded my head and grinned as he wrote the answer down neatly on the sheet of paper. Perfect handwriting, should have known.

I decided to mess with him then a little, since he did question my scientific capabilities.

"Hey, did you get contacts?" I asked in a casual tone.

He looked at me questioningly. "No," he replied blunt and confused. It would have been simpler, easier for him if he had just said yes.

Putting in the next slide I responded. "Oh, that's odd considering your eyes were black two days ago and now they're a golden color. Maybe it's the fluorescent lighting, but then again…" I shrugged leaving the unfinished sentence hanging in the air as I looked into the slide.

"Metaphase. Do you want to check it, again?" I asked looking at him.

He was confused you could see it clearly on his face. And maybe there was fear in his eyes as well, for me probably. All that seemed to only enhance his attractiveness though, not that he needed that. Oh…great, what was I thinking!? I shook my head to try and regain the better part of me. The more logical side that was getting taken over by hormones, haha in science class of all places.

"No, I believe you," he replied as he wrote the second answer down in his elegant handwriting. "Mind if I do the next slide?"

Gesturing my hand out to the microscope, as he had done, in answer he took out the next slide. It only took a few more minutes to finish the assignment as he did two more and I did one more, silently. Looking around the room I saw everyone else still working with their books open. Taking a look up at the clock I saw we still had plenty of time to kill.

Before either of us said another word Mr. Banner came walking up to our table. Suspicious probably for our assignment being done so fast. It wasn't normal, but then again WE were not normal, far from it.

"So, Edward, didn't you think Isabella should get a chance with the microscope?" Mr. Banner asked.

"Actually, she identified three of the five, sir."

Mr. Banner looked down at me. Skeptical as all the teachers before had been.

"Have you done this lab before?" he asked. One of the many question I received from several teachers already.

I smiled sheepishly, acting shy. "Not with onion root." That was true. I don't know why any of my labs before had not done onion root. But they didn't, at least that gave me a chance to be truthful.

"Whitefish blastula?" he asked.

"Yes." Twice, actually at least this one was a bit different.

Mr. Banner nodded. "Were you in an advanced placement program in Phoenix?"

"Yes," I lied as Edward looked at me confused. Stupid heartbeat, it would always call the bluff. Things could get tricky if I had to lie around him often.

"Well," he said after a moment. "I guess, its good the two of you are lab partner then." He mumbled something as he walked away. After he left, I began doodling on my notebook.

A few more seconds of silence and there was a rumble up above along with rain starting to fall. I shivered and glared out at the window as if it were an enemy. This probably simply amused dear Edward next to me.

"You don't like the rain." It wasn't a question, but a statement. One with a muffled chuckle in it.

"No," I disagreed as his forehead creased. It was getting to be too much fun messing with him. "I hate the rain," I added before going back to the doodles. There were terrible endings that always dealt with the rain. A coincidence mom would always say, but I'm not so convinced.

"Forks must be a difficult place for you to live," he mused.

"You have no idea," I muttered darkly.

"Why did you come here, then?" he asked suddenly. In a way I was not prepared to answer for.

"It's…complicated."

"I think I can keep up," he pressed.

"My parents like to travel a lot," I replied. It was the easiest answer and it was pretty truthful.

"That doesn't sound so complex," he disagreed, but he was suddenly sympathetic. "Do they force you to travel?"

"No, I'm more willing to come then my siblings are, with the exception of Robert."

"Robert?" Edward asked his eyebrows narrowed, but tone still kind.

"My youngest brother, he'll agree to anything."

"How old is he?"

"Um…four," I lied again, not so convincingly. As if it would matter he was the ultimate liar detector. Edward starred at me as if trying to find some answer written on my face. As if that was going to happen. "He goes to a daycare, nearby," I added, truthfully probably only confusing him further.

I was starting to feel bad for messing with him even though now I didn't have much of a choice. It wasn't like I was going to tell him the truth about me especially in a classroom full of eavesdropper. No this was only a temporary move and then I would be gone and never have to see him again or tell him anything. And that…pained me.

Maybe…nah. The only chance of me telling him about myself was when he had the guts to tell me about, what I already knew about, him and his whole family. Then and only then, would I ever even consider in letting him know the truth, about my family and me.

There was a long silence before Edward asked another question. "Where is your brother, Noah?" So he noticed his disappearance, interesting.

"He's in Phoenix, right now," I replied not thinking about it.

"Phoenix, why is he there?"

"Something happened with the movers, I'm not sure what. My parents went back to Phoenix taking Robert and Noah with them. They'll be back at some point."

"And they left you and your sisters all alone?"

"Yes, I can take care of myself and my sisters, by myself. I am perfectly capable," I replied a little outraged.

Edward half-smiled and then asked the most dreaded question, "Any reason you hate the rain, so much?" I closed my eyes trying to cut the painful flashbacks. "Isabella?" he asked concerned.

"Nothing good has come from it, always terrible endings," I replied softly as my eyes stung with tears.

"What happened?"

"I'd rather not reply," I answered my accent slipping.

"You have an accent, I've never heard of it before?"

"Yeah, it mixed from all the moves."

He nodded and silence fell once again and neither of us bothered in starting another conversation. The bell rang signaling the end of class and the beginning of gym. Oh what a joy.

After a stressful hour in gym, it's not fun trying to be klutz when dealing with sports; I headed to my refuge as usual. I wanted to get far away from this place as possible. Except unlike usual, Serenity came by stopping me in my tracks.

She cautiously approached me and was trying not to smile. Already I could tell I was not going to like what she had to say.

"Serenity, what did you do." I stated rather then asked. She fidgeted a little and tried not to look guilty.

"I invited some people over to dinner tomorrow." I narrowed my eyes at her as she sighed. "The Cullens."

"WHAT?" I yelled at her. I wanted to strangle my sister right then and there not really caring if anyone was watching. Except it wouldn't do any good as it wouldn't conflict any pain on her. All it really would do was have her rolling her eyes.

"Katie was right, you are mad," Serenity mumbled.

"No Serenity I'm not mad, I'm angry. No, angry doesn't even begin to describe the rage I feel at the moment." Serenity eyes shifted to the ground. "How could you invite people over to our house, Seren? Our house, without even consulting me, and what about our parents I doubt they will be fine when they hear about this."

Serenity's head shot back up and there was a faint smile on her lips. Great, what now!

"I already called mom. She was fine with it."

"She was?" I asked in disbelief. What was wrong with the world?

"Yeah, just like Alice was sure she would be. Although she sounded a bit distracted, but she still said 'sure you can invite the Cullens over.'" She paused as I shook my head. "Come on Bells, please. We can act normal for one night. Besides it would mean a lot to mean. Alice, right now is about the only person I can stand at this school besides you and Katie of course."

"Since when did you and Alice become friends? You're not even in the same grade."

She shrugged in response. "I don't know. She just came over to me this morning and started talking to me. We have a lot in common, and one thing led to another and next thing you know her family's invited over for dinner."

"One thing leads to another, Serenity? You don't actually expect me to believe that, do you?"

"Well now that I think about it. She sorta invited herself over and when she left she shouted that she was sure our parents would be fine with it." She took a pause looking confused. "And that you would be the one, who might have a problem with it. Huh, she was right again. She's good."

"Too good," I muttered. "Alright the damage is already done. I guess we should get ready for Thursday's dinner." Serenity's face brightened and she headed for the truck while I slowly followed.

Vampires over for dinner, could things get any worse. At least the three of us were fine, for now.

"Alice, what are you hiding?" I asked. She continued humming the periodic table in her head. (A/N: I couldn't think of anything else and I had just finished writing the Biology scene.)

"Yes Alice, why did you call this meeting?" Carlisle asked as Rosalie scoffed, annoyed and bored.

"Well…" she started as her thoughts slipped and I saw what she had done.

"Are you mental?" I asked her as she simply smiled.

"No, I thought it would be fun." I shook my head in disbelief as she continued for the rest of the family's behalf. "Serenity Swan has invited us all to dinner tomorrow night."

"You mean you invited us over, Alice," I said through gritted teeth.

"She still accepted, didn't she?" She raised her eyebrow. "Besides we need to get to know them better. You can't read any of their minds, I can't see their future well, and we all know about how their blood affects us. They're different and we need to understand why or…" She paused looking over at Rosalie. "Are we just going to move again for safety reasons?"

Rosalie grumbled. She didn't want to have dinner with the Swans, but she didn't want to move even more. We all knew that and Alice was using that for her advantage, her edge. "Fine I'm in for going over there only a little while though," Rosalie said crossing her arms over her chest looking furious.

"Sounds like fun, I'm in," Emmett added as Jasper looked pained.

"I guess," he said not looking too happy about it. Alice hugged his neck and kissed his cheek before turning to Esme and Carlisle.

"We've never gone over to someone's house before. It might be a good experience," Esme said as Carlisle nodded his head.

"I guess we should go since they have had such an effect on us and we don't know much about them. It would be a good shot in trying to understand what is happening," Carlisle said turning to me as did everyone else.

I glared at Alice as she smiled. Come on Edward don't be a kill joy. I know you want to know more about them just as much as we all do. If not more, just say yes.

After a moment of silence I pinched the bridge of my nose and grumbled an almost intelligible 'yes.'

Alice jumped up and down in excitement and said, "Then it's settled we are all going over to the Swans for dinner, tomorrow night." She gave me a wink and left the room as Jasper followed.

Emmett and Rosalie left as well. Emmett was grinning from amusement, and Rosalie was looking ready to strangle someone. Carlisle stood up and said, "Well won't this be interesting." He left with Esme as I sat there. Alone, as usual.

This chapter officially has Edward in the most then the previous. You know what that means he's starting to become a bigger character in this story, as if he wasn't already. Although he is still going to have miss out on some things. Anyway, I actually had planned to do Edward's POV during his first encounter with Bella in Biology. So you would understand that her blood has a different effect, but I forgot to write it. And I've been too lazy to write it. Well now it's your turn to review.
