Miss Melancholy

AN: So this is my attempt at writing a good chapter after so long of nothingness. I hope it's still good! Hey...this may sound really weird but Chapter 3:If You Just Knew What They Could Do. I can't remember what song it's from . Anyone fancy helping me out by telling me? I'd be really thankful!

Chapter 7: F-F-F-Falling

Edward Pov

When I was little there was only one thing I'd been scared off. Mazes. They had terrified me ever since I had got lost in one. Alice had eventually found me but not before it had begun to get dark and the creatures of the night began to stalk to the narrow paths.

My first day in Forks High School had been like getting lost in that maze. But I was an adult then and not a little kid so I wasn't scared. There is a point to all this, the school is like a maze and unless you've been there for some time it will eat you up very easily, small as it is. I wanted to find Bella quickly for many reasons, I really did need to talk to her about the Music club, but I also wanted to see her face.

As I speedily walked to her classroom, I noticed that students we're beginning to arrive and that made me notice that I'd have little time to look for her before I had to head to my own classroom.

I arrived at her classroom and realised, as I paused outside, that I was slightly breathless. I calmed myself and strode into the classroom, fully expecting Bella to be sitting in there. In my head I could see her perfectly perched in several places.

I could see her perched in her chair eating an apple, her long legs draped over the chair arms whilst her brown eyes flashed up to mine from the book she had been reading.

In another I could see her trying to reach up to a shelf, precariously perched on the edge of a chair, and then suddenly falling just in time for me to catch her and hold her close to my chest.

I shook my head. That wasn't helping at all. Quickly, I looked around the classroom. It was empty! I sighed and shoved my hands into my pockets as I turned around to go back out of the classroom. Without realising I bumped straight into someone that was coming into the room.

" Excuse me." I muttered without looking at the person I'd bumped into. I quickly walked off, my mind full of Bella. Suddenly a voice came from behind me,

"You do realise that it's common courtesy to help the person you knocked over!" I froze on the spot. Cringing I slowly turned around to see Bella, slowly picking up her stuff. I'd knocked her over and I hadn't even noticed! I ran back and quickly helped her pick it up.

"Bella! I'm so sorry! I was just looking for you but I didn't realise that it was you I knocked over! I'm really sorry!" I mumbled as I helped her to pick up her stuff. Quickly glancing over it I noticed that in her pile were books, lyrics, DVDs and a box with several microphones in it.

As we both collected her stuff neither of us said a word. Suddenly underneath my hand was something warm and incredibly soft. I looked down at what it was. I had accidently placed my hand on top of Bella's.

My mind flashed back to the night in the club and I looked up at Bella's face. It was was closer then I thought and I could feel her breath on my cheek. It was minty and inviting. It made me want to lead forward and kiss her. The memory of her lips on mine echoing through my mind. I could almost taste her as her warmth beckoned me in.

But before anything could happen Bella sprang up like something had given her an electric shock. With her things in her arms she marched into the classroom. Her eyes full of sadness, worry and shock.

I was left standing outside her classroom alone and rejected. Rage boiled up in me over being rejected. I stormed down the corridors to my classroom, just restraining myself from punching the lockers that lined the walls. The bell rang out before I opened to the door to my room and I saw some students walking down the corridor.

"Get to your room." I hissed at them, instantly feeling guilty as the smiles that were on their faces disappeared and were instead replaced with worried lines. They began to run down the corridor as I entered my classroom, sighing.

Bella Pov

Edward...Edward...Edward. His name had been being whispered in my head all day. His stunt earlier had left me rattled and without my usual confidence. I had known that it was going to happen after the weekend but I didn't want it too. That's a lie...I wanted it to happen, badly.

As soon as I had seen Edward I hadn't been able to keep my eyes off him. Even when he knocked me over all I could focus on was the was his soft silk shirt felt against my bare shoulder. And when his hand touched mine...It had sent shivers through my entire body. At the memory I shivered again and accidently dropped the pen I was using to write on the board with.

"Miss? Are you okay?" I looked behind me and saw my First Years muttering between themselves. I smiled widely and replied,

"Of course, just had a lot happening recently," I bent over and picked up my pen and resumed my lesson. "So basically, as you can see here. We are going to be doing about Movie Reviews." The entire class was split into 2 reactions. Half the class gasped out loud excitedly, eager to watch film after film. The other half sighed and slumped lower into their seats, reluctant to write about Camera angels and the like.

The chatting started and I let them for a few minutes before I overheard one person say,

"Oh I hope we study Shrek, I love that film!" I clapped and pointed at the girl. The class became quiet in an instant and her face became extremely worried.

"You," I said walking over to her, "What film did you just say that you wanted to study?" She looked at friend and meekly replied.

"Shrek, I thought it would be a cool movie to look at." She looked very worried and I smiled kindly at her.

"Well lucky you because that's exactly what we're going to be doing!" I switched the lights off that were right next to her and pressed a button on my laptop to start the movie. I briefly saw the girl grin and mutter to her friends. From her actions she must have said something like "Thank god, I thought I was in trouble." I grinned to myself and shushed the class to quiet.

I had a free period after break and I decided that I might as well spend that and lunch preparing for my music class after school. Lunch had just begun when Edward decided to distract me from my business.

"Um...Bella...I need to talk to you." He said to me, making me jump up from my work. He had crept up on me as silently as a panther would creep onto its prey. I couldn't help but grin at the thought of being Edward's "prey". When I had bumped into him in the corridor, I hadn't properly looked anywhere but his face and now as I looked him up and down I was blown away by his gorgeousness. He was wearing a fitted black, silk shirt, black skinny jeans and converse. Paired with his ruffled bronze hair, it blew me away. I felt like running my hands through his hair and pulling him towards me to kiss him deeply.

I coughed slightly and stood up to greet him.

"Yes? What about Edward?" I said, noticing how my voice sounded slightly hostile. He seemed to notice too as he looked away from my face and to a display on the wall.

"I just came in to ask what was going on with the music club. When is it and what time? Is it lunch time or after school? Also, I wanted to apologise again for earlier in the corridor. Sorry." He grinned at me, his hand sub-consciously ruffling the back of his head.

"You look just like a nervous teenager Edward. But yea...It's Wednesdays after school. I hope you'll be able to join us. I'm planning to do each session focused on covering some songs and eventually creating out own song. Hopefully there are some musical geniuses in our small school." I replied smiling cheekily and walking over to him. I sat on the edge of a desk and leaned back. I was inviting him in with my body language and I was very aware of it. I knew then that my eyes were going to betray how I felt. I wanted to pounce on him then and there and from the look of it, he wanted to do the same to me.

His eyes glowed for a second and then suddenly there seemed to be a flame of desire that was burning brighter by the second. He began to walk towards me and I was struck by how like a mountain lion he looked.

"Bella..." He almost growled at me and suddenly I felt like I was in vunerable...and I was liking it. I stayed where I was and looked him straight in the eyes, challenging him to come and get me. Suddenly he was there. His mouth was hard, but soft against mine. Our mouths opened together and his tongue slipped into my mouth. He tasted minty, like spicy mints.

He pushed my backwards against the desk and suddenly we were lying on the desk, making out. We broke apart and looked at each other. We were both panting heavily and his hair was messed up even more than usual.

"Miss Swan! Mr Cullen! What are you doing on the desks?!" Our heads whipped round and there stood the headteacher, Carlisle, in the door way.

"Shit..."
