A/N: Sorry this is late! I wanted to post it yesterday but fanfic was down! Just my luck, right? So here it is!.. And the mystery person is...

"Do you two WANT to end up dead?!" the girl who my brother introduced as Alice screamed.

She didn't seem angry as I imagined she would be, but more worried. Why would she be worried about us? Especially me, I was the enemy. I stood there in shock, as much as I wanted to run away, I couldn't. My legs wouldn't move from the ground, as if I were stuck in quicksand.

"Bella, this is my sister Alice." Edward said passively. How could he be so calm about this?! His sister just discovered our secret, why was he not hyperventilating like I was?

"Hello Bella, it's nice to finally meet you." She said from the doorway with a warm smile planted on her face. I was so utterly confused right now. Edward looked over to me and noticed my confused expression now too.

"Bella, Alice sees the future. That is her gift, she knew about us before we even did. She is the most...supportive in the family. She is the only one that knows about us." He stated, she could see the future? Imagine, to be able to see your own future and those around you. How enticing, to determine what life brings before you. To be able to see it and change it at your own free will.

"Not if you two aren't careful, I won't be. I will help you two as much as I can but you must understand that what you are doing is dangerous. If you get caught there will be dire consequences...lets just leave it at that for now. Your family is looking for you Bella. I suggest you go and find them before they find you." she said sternly.

I nodded and gently stroked Edward's cheek with the back of my hand. He smiled at my touch and whispered an "Until later" in my ear. I turned to walk away but just as I was about to exit, Alice turned to me once more.

"Oh, Bella-"

"Y-yes" I stuttered, even though she was on our side, I was still very uneasy around her.

"I'll see you around" she winked. I half smiled at her and walked out to begin looking for my family in the chaos surrounding the hallway. They were bound to be around here somewhere.

"BELLA! Where have you been? I've been looking for you for the past ten minutes!" Donavon shouted, authority clearly evident in his voice.

"I...um...got lost. This school is very big and all of you just left me to fend for myself so I was walking around and I couldn't find anything and..." I was rambling, I was a horrible liar. When ever I lied about something the words just exploded out of my mouth, and I couldn't stop them.

"Bella, Bella, Bella, calm down! It's okay, I was worried is all." he said putting his arm around my shoulders in a brotherly way.

"I'm a vampire Don, I don't think you need to worry so much. I'm not going to get hurt so easily."

"I know Bella, it's just I feel a little nervous with the Cullens being here. It's not safe for you to be wandering around with them here. Do you hear me? No wandering off." he said, holding my shoulders an arms length away from him.

"Yeah" I whispered. TELL HIM, BELLA. TELL HIM ABOUT EDWARD! HE'S YOUR BROTHER, TELL HIM! my head was screaming at me. I never kept anything like this from Donavon, he was my only friend and so much like a brother to me. He meant more to me than anyone else in the family. But, I knew I had to keep this from him, as much as it hurt me to do so. this is what had to be. Although he was more understanding than the rest of the family, even though he didn't like the war that was going on, didn't mean he didn't support the rest of the family. If they fought, he fought. He was the second in charge which meant he would follow them with any decision they chose to make.

If I told him, he would forbid me from ever seeing Edward again. I couldn't do that. It's something I should do, to protect everyone, including Edward. But, whenever the thought crossed my mind my unbeating heart started to throb in my chest, the sensation clawed throughout my entire being leaving me mauled and broken.

I couldn't stop seeing him, not even if I tried. I couldn't live with that pain, nor did I want to. Although it would be hard, I would find a way to be with him. Even if I had to lie, cheat, steal or turn my back on everything I once knew to be true. This was going to be painful, that much was evident, but throughout my entire life all I have ever known was pain. It was the only emotion I understood fully. With happiness came pain. It was the way of life, the only one I knew at least.

"I'll walk you to your first class, okay? It would make me feel better" he smiled knocking me out of the insanity that was my mind.

"Sure" I laughed.

---------------------------

After showing Donavon my class schedule he showed me to my second period class. English.

The teacher introduced herself as Mrs. Davidson and placed me in a seat near the back next to two boys, who after hearing I would be sitting next to them were practically jumping out of their seats. All men were the same, no matter what species they were.

I sat down quietly and drew my attention to the teacher in front of me. We were discussing the Great Gatsby, a book I have read over ten times. I could probably recite that book if I wanted. Nevertheless I tried paying attention, listening to the class discussion of whether Daisy loved Gatsby or in contrast herself. But even as I listened to the class Edward would pop into my mind every few seconds, and a small smile would creep onto my face as well as the same tingly sensation my powers created whenever he would touch me.

My day dreaming, however, was disrupted by one of the boys sitting next to me. He had blonde spiky like hair with pale blue eyes. He wasn't half bad looking for a human, but nothing compared to Edward.

"Hey, I'm Mike Newton. You're new here right? Another one of the Swans?" he said batting his eyelashes at me.

"Yes, my name is Bella" I said simply.

"Since your new to the school and all...I was wondering...could I escort you around?"

"I'm sorry but I already know my way around the school" lie. "But thank you anyway." I said as kindly as I could. He seemed like a nice boy, I didn't want to hurt his feelings.

"Are you sure? I'm an excellent guide" he continued with a grin on his face.

"YES I'M SURE! NOW LEAVE ME ALONE!" I screamed. It was the weirdest feeling, usually I'm a pretty passive aggressive person. I don't like screaming at others unless they give me reason to. One minute I was completely calm and the next I could feel this sense of rage bubbling underneath my skin, ready to erupt.

The boy that introduced himself as Mike looked shocked, with a hint of fear in his eyes as he turned around and sank into his seat. The entire class had stopped to stare at me. Wonderful, now they probably thought I was bipolar (A/N: sorry if anyone is, I'm not trying to be offensive).

It was then I heard a snicker coming from behind me. I turned around to meet the eyes of a boy, he was tall and extremely pale with blonde hair that messily sat on top of his head. It was unlike Mikes, darker and more gracefully styled. But the thing that stood out the most was his eyes, a shocking topaz color. This boy was a vampire. He was one of the Cullens, Jasper if I remembered correctly.

I met his gaze with my own and noticed his eyes had an underlying anger in them only to be seen beyond the humor. He hated me. He knew nothing about me and yet hated every fiber of my being just because of my last name. He didn't know who I was, simply who my family were. Already he had compared them all to me just because we live under the same household. Now, that angered me. That and the way he smirked at me led me to believe he had something to do with my random outburst. I don't know how he did it, or what his power was but it was definitely without a doubt his doing.

Two could play at that game.

A/N: Okay, this might seem a little OOC for Bella, but don't worry it's not too bad. It's just payback :) SOO REVIEW!! PLEASE!! Everyone gave such nice reviews last time I would LOVE to get some more!! Do you think Bella should tell Donavon? Let me know!!

THANK YOU!!
