Ch.3

EPOV

Edward sighed as he and his siblings, Alice and Jasper sat in his Volvo in the Forks High School parking lot. His other brother and sister Emmett and Rosalie were in her BMW. The Parking lot was desolate except for a few teenagers here and there and a few cars. Edward could smell his kind. He looked out of the window and saw them. They were a large group for vampires. They varied in age, ranging from around 6 to 20.

There was a girl. She was beautiful-even more beautiful than any vampire he had ever seen before- lying so peacefully in the grass. But there was a guy. He looked the oldest and he was trying to get a kiss from her. The youngest vampire, a girl, looked up and said something to the 'kiss guy' and he smiled and threw her into the air a few times while she laughed. While this was going on, the parking lot gradually filled with pale teenagers dressed in bright colors, as if that would brighten the day…

"We better go." Alice said and got out of the car, Jasper holding her hand.

"I hate high school." Edward commented, following suit and getting out too.

"It's ok, Edward. It's like a routine that we follow for the next two or three years." Alice chirped, always cheery for some reason. " You'll get used to it!"

"I don't wanna…" he grumbled while walking behind them.

They walked in silence then, Edward staring after the girl that was lying in the grass before. All of the kids that were previously in the parking lot were all fighting to get through the door at the same time. That's a smart idea…not! Edward tried to read the beauty's mind but found that he couldn't. That's strange. It wasn't as though she was blocking him though. It seemed that the barrier on her mind was just there and no matter how hard Edward tried he couldn't break that barrier down. That made him frustrated. He was pushing his way easily through the crowd to position himself behind the girl- maybe if he were closer he'd be able to do it.

She turned around right when he was behind her. She was absolutely gorgeous up close! Even more so than from farther away! Her large eyes were a soft chocolaty brown for some reason and she smiled sweetly at him. He staggered for a second, her beauty dazzling him. Then Edward noticed the arm wrapped around her shoulders…

He followed that arm up from its hand to the elbow to the shoulder and finally found a face. He was the 'kiss guy'! Edward hadn't thought that they were together! It certainly didn't look like it! It only looked like the 'kiss guy' was a pervert who didn't know how to hit on girls! Edward tried to break into the guy's thoughts but they were blocked. Grrr…

Then the girl went to off her locker followed by the guy and Edward lost them as the sea of students continued to flow at a consistent pace to wherever each of them were heading. The thoughts were loud and buzzing and giving Edward a headache so he blocked them out and continued towards his first class, his thoughts still on the girl he had seen and the smile that she had directed towards him.

Bella, Tristan, Jason and Elizabeth merged into the flow of students trying to get through the door. Tristan wrapped an arm around Bella's waist and she sighed, making Elizabeth giggle. Tristan smiled when she didn't beat the crap out of him for touching her.

" See? I knew you couldn't resist me." He joked. Jason let out an exaggerated cough. Tristan shot him a look that could kill. Jason immediately straightened up.

Bella felt someone staring intently at her and it made her squirm slightly. It's a very uncomfortable feeling. Then she felt that person move from farther away to right behind her. It was a vampire; she could tell- his smell gave it away. Bella turned around and saw an angel looking at her. He was gorgeous!! She felt a wave of relief when she saw that his eyes were a bright topaz color and not the dark purple of a human drinker. She smiled at him and turned her attention forward once again.

Tristan pulled her closer. They separated from the swarm of students and went to Bella's locker.

" Did you feel them Tristan?" Bella asked, referring to the new vampires.

"Nope! The only girl I feel is you, I swear!" he held up his hands in a sign of surrender.

Bella rolled her eyes and sighed. " No, you perve. The new vampires. Did you sense them?"

" No. Maybe I was too wound up in our very interesting conversation." Tristan replied, leaning against the lockers and idly playing with a lock of Bella's hair.

Bella looked at him incredulously. " We weren't even having a conversation!"

"Ok, geez. Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed today and when I say someone I mean you 'cause you are the only one who actually sleeps…"

"Yeah. Its ok. You don't have to explain it to me, Tristan. I get it." Bella gathered all of her books and headed towards her first class: trigonometry.

"Just makin sure." Tristan smiled and followed her.

"Shouldn't you be going to class?" Bella asked.

" Yeah, I suppose."

" That was a stupid question. Are you going to class?"

"Nope. I think I might just chill outside."

"Tristan, do you really want to fail the 11th grade for the-what? What is it now? Like 27? Would you really like to fail 11th grade again for the 27th time?" Bella stopped walking and turned to face him.

He smiled nonchalantly at her. " Don't worry about it Bella. I can pull my weight."

"You better." She continued walking and then stopped outside her classroom. "I'll see you later Tristan."

"Bye Bells." He smiled endearingly at her. She smiled back and gave him a peck on the lips. She giggled when he stood stock still, dazed. She smiled one last time and then entered the classroom. She sat in her seat, waiting for the class to begin.

Sometimes she wondered why they came so early because she really didn't like the way the other girls looked at her. They were all…grr. She saw a guy with nice hair who was leaning on the desk looking at her and smiled at him. He stumbled and fell. Then she felt another vampire in the room and looked up. It was a girl around her age with a small body but elegant curves. She had choppy black hair that shines in its sheen. She had the topaz eyes of an animal drinker, which is a relief for Bella because killing innocent human for their blood was…evil!

"Hi." The girl said as she sat down next to Bella in the back of the classroom. "I'm Alice."
