I own nothing. SM does. I'm just playing around….
In my last year of Grad school. It's been challenging to say the least.
My heart seemed to stop beating and a ringing in my ears started. Yet I could not seem to detach myself from his arms. I closed my eyes not wanting to see who interrupted us. I was afraid what I would see.
I noticed that Edward started moving me around his body placing me more behind him as he turned to face whoever spoke. While my heart started up again to go into overdrive, I was happy to still feel his arm around me.
In front of us stood a beautiful blond girl in what appeared to be P.E. clothes, with her arms folded at her chest, smirking at me maliciously. "I can't wait to see what Tanya will say when she finds you making a move at her man." No sooner had she spoken when I heard their voices right before the group of girls that were with Rose rounded the corner.
I felt my stomach turn and I tried to move out of Edward's grasp. Only he tightens his arm around me, pressing me further into his back. He whispered to me, "Let me take care of this. Trust me."
I don't know what possessed me to stay in his grasp. The last thing I needed was an angry girlfriend on my case too. And now it looked like this girl will be in the group of girls that had already said mean things about me. But I couldn't find the strength to leave his protection. I don't know what was wrong with me. I should have been running far from here.
"Look who I found all over Edward Tan," the girl sneered.
"You know for a new girl you have some nerve. Get away from him you little whore," says yet the new girl as she starts approaching us. Tan is a tall beautiful girl, well minus the scowl on her face. She is dressed in a P.E. uniform too with her curls in a high ponytail.
"Don't talk to her like that Tanya. You have no right to care about who is with me or what I do for that matter. I told you already we are over and I don't want you near me." Edward responds in a very cold voice. Broken up? I let go of a breathe I didn't know I was holding.
Tanya stops and moves to touch Edward's face. "I don't know why you are saying that Eddie, but you don't know what kind of trouble this girls has already started. Why don't you go to class and not worry about it. I'll take care of her." Edward has moved us a step back to avoid her touch. I find this very comforting for some reason.
Even though a bell rings, the girls remain where they are, as do we.
"You are not taking care of anything Tanya. Just run along, I am sure there is somebody from here to the locker room that you can find to blow," I suddenly hear from behind us. I turn to see Jasper angrily staring at the girls. He meets my stare, but I notice he narrows his eyes as he notes Edward's arm around me. The look he gives me let's me know we will be talking about this later.
"How dare you! Are you going to let him talk to me like that Eddie!" Tanya screeches.
"Why not? It's not like he's saying anything that's not been proven to be true. Now run along. Don't you have to change into something more indecent?" this bell like voice now joins in. From our right comes Miss Dream girl herself, along with another blonde girl dressed in her cheerleading uniform.
Awesome. A crowd is now forming. I just need Rose to show up and then my torture can be complete. I feel my breaths coming in shallow. I'm feeling trapped in despite being outside. I want to run so much. I really want to throw up now. So much for the doctor's order to avoid stress as much as possible.
"Let's go Tan. The bell rang and she's not worth it anyways. I'm sure we will run into her again," another girl from their group says, as they begin to tug Tanya away. From the looks she's giving me I know this is far from over. The knots in my stomach continue to grow and I also find myself having to push the air out of my lungs. I briefly wonder if commuting to the neighboring town's school will be too much of an inconvenience.
"Now do you mind, letting go of my cousin, Eddie? I think you have done enough to give Isabella a welcome she won't forget." Jazz says as he now glares at Edward.
I feel Edward's grasp loosen. "Don't call me Eddie, Jasper. You know how much that bugs me. And I haven't done.." Alice cuts off Edward.
"Don't talk to my brother like that! He didn't do anything," Alice now glares at Jasper as she moves to stand between the boys and starts poking Jasper with her finger on his chest.
Meanwhile, I turn my back to them all and promptly throw up in the nearest bush I see.
AN: Happy New Year! I am not sure when I can get the next chapter up, but will do my best. Comps are this semester so it's going to be fun…..
