Chapter 3

It feels later than it actually is though considering it's two hours earlier than Minnesota. First things first, need to go to the store, get food then get ready for my first day of classes. I'm a college student taking Special Education Early Childhood at the Forks Community College, though finishing the generals first. A stressful life but it's worth it. Before I went to bed the night before I made a list of what to get. I always make a list it helps me spend less. Anyway at the market I concentrate on the shopping. Thinking of how easy it is doing an everyday thing. Just got chills up my spine like someone was watching me. When I look behind me there's a familiar car just can't place where. As I'm driving the same feeling happens. When I head up the stairs to start putting groceries away I bump into a guy. Looks the same age as me with bleach-blond hair actually reminds me of Spike from Buffy The Vampire Slayer. Something about him seems off but it could just be nerves or butterflies in stomach.

"I'm sorry about that."

"No it's my fault. Couldn't see where I was going." I said.

"Do you need help?"

As he asked that I looked at my watch realizing I was running out of time to get to school early.

"yah that would be nice."

"What apartment are you in?" The strange guy asked.

"#4. I'm sorry I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Bree."

"Names William."

"Nice to meet you."

When I head up the stairs I hear the dog coming to the door.

"Sorry about the dog. She get's excited when I come home."

As I'm saying this I notice that the dog starts to growl at William. That's strange. The cat runs too but she does that also when I come home though she's hissing at him. Strange too.

"I couldn't help but notice you were looking at your watch. Are having to be somewhere.?" He asked

"I'm sorry I have class soon and I was trying to get to the school early to get my bearings. New place need to figure out the layout of the place."

"So that was your moving truck I saw."

"Yep it was. Just moved in yesterday."

"Wow didn't take you long to unpack."

"There's still some boxes to unpack but the big stuff is already done."

"I hate to ask but is your dog always like that."

"You mean the growling. No actually not. But she just met you so give her time."

As we were talking we got the rest of the groceries up to the apartment. And got them put away too. All too soon it was time to go to school.

"You need to get to school."

'Yah I'm sorry."

"No it's fine. Maybe we'll see each other in passing."

"Maybe"

After he left the dog seemed to calm down but followed me wherever I went. Animals do have a sixth sense in some ways. They can sense when a person isn't well some people could say mean or more than that.

As I approach the school I start to get butterflies in my stomach which means nerves. I always get nervous when I start a new class. Even if it's the same school. Anyway I go to student services after asking where it was. I get help on how to get my schedule off the computer and where the classrooms are. As I'm doing this I notice a guy who looks well pale and also looks like Angel in a way. The other thing I notice is that he has purple bruises under his eyes like he hasn't slept in a few days or like he hasn't hunted in a while. Okay he's not a vampire so he mustn't have slept in a few days. As I'm leaving student services I bump into the guy I saw and the first thing I notice is how cold his skin is. But through his clothes though this is forks after all.
