CHAPTER: 3
I was looking around for somewhere to sit when I first lay my eyes on them. Well. More like him. Edward.
I swear if I could die – by dropping dead, of course – then I would have. I felt the walls I had built up around my self stat to crumble bit by bit. Sweet Goddess. This could not be happening! 70 years! 70 long years I spent building up those walls, and here he is, in just a few minutes this…….this………this Night One is destroying 70 long years of hard work. I need to get away from here…..away from him……NOW!
I made a 180 degree turn and headed strait to the door that would lead to the field and parking lot. My sanctuary. I was aware that would have to walk past him to get to it, but it would be worth it.
Just when my sanctum is within my grasp it is blocked by some kid with fake blonde spiked hair, and a death wish for getting in my way. And for stopping me a few yards away from the Cullen Table.
"Hi there," he begins speaking loud enough for the whole cafe. to hear. It's suddenly quiet. I am usually a very patient person….woman…..thing. But this guy is keeping me from the one thing I want most right now. My freedom. I enter the barest of bare of his mind to see what he wants, instead I am hit with a 'I can't believe such a hottie came to Forks. I wonder how she is in bed' I wince inwardly as his rant continues. 'Look at that hair. That has got to be The weirdest hairstyle I have ever seen. It's wild. I wonder if it reflects her personality' Damn Strait. My hair is Different and Unique. And Untamable, like me.
And I'll be more damned then I already am if I would let somebody insult any part of me. Even my hair. So excuse me if I sound superficial.
"Can I help you?" I ask trying not to sound annoyed.
"Actually. Yes. Yes you can," all the sudden I'm getting thoughts like 'uh oh, 'Johnson's on the move again' and 'there goes another virgin'. Gross. "You can give me you name, number, address, and your parents work schedule." 'My, my. Aren't we ambitious' I thought. The cafe. is automatically quiet to see what my reaction. I smile sweetly.
"Sure," I say. He smirks at his friends as if to say 'see I told you no woman can resist me.' " It's none of your business, 1-800-fuck-off, shove it up your ass, and go screw yourself." by the time I finish my 'lil speech everyone is laughing at my comical rejection. The Johnson kid looks like his head's gonna blow up. I think it would me amusing, and a community service if I sped things along a little and just strait up, bow up his head. But I don't.
I try to walk around him, but he grabs my shoulder to stop me. Big mistake. I hate, I mean hate it when anything touches me. But he's lucky he didn't touch my skin. 'Cause NOBODY touches my skin but me.
"Hey Bitch, no one refuses me,"
"I guess there's a first time for everything, now if you'll excuse me, boy. I have better things to do. Like wash this shirt that you're contaminating." I smack his hand away with a glove covered hand. The hit is dainty, one expected of a girlie girl (which I am not), but it serves to move his hand from touching me.
I can feel Edward watching me. Actually I ca feel the whole student body (in the cafe.) watching me. I'm surprised Edward hasn't tried to get into my mind yet, but, he will soon. They always do. I try again to leave but the kid stops me. 'Doesn't he know when to stop' I think. I know Edward has picked up on this and I hear his quiet snicker. I know Alice just asked him what's up, but he tells her to just watch.
I want to throw a trashcan at him, but that would expose my power, and status. What? You don't think I'd actually touch something that probably has maggots in it do you. Besides, why do that when you can just levitate it and throw it at 'em. It's much easier. I make sure Edward doesn't hear this, but I can't totally block off my mind. He would get suspicious. I smile at the trashcan thought.
"What are you smiling at, Bitch?" He snarls. This time I laugh outright.
"Wouldn't you like to know?" I ask. But apparently Edward wants to know as well, so I imagine the kid covered in trash. He tells his 'family' what I thought about, and they're all snickering.
"Yes. Do tell me what's going on in that pretty little head of yours."
"What?" I ask faking offended. " I like to think that my whole body is," I lean stand up on my tiptoes and lean forward to whisper in his ear. "Hot and sexy. Would you like to fine out?" I ask my voice seductive. He is smiling. I catching his thoughts. 'She wants me so bad. She was just playing hard to get. They always do' It takes all my self control not to burst out laughing. I blow sexily into his ear making him shiver.
I bring my hand up to his face and start tracing down. I use my other hand to bring his arms around my waist. I sense Edwards' disgust in me. This for some reason disappoints me. When I realize this I harden my heart. 'I don't want him' I tell myself. 'I don't care' I make sure Edward can't hear these thoughts. Mean while the Johnson kid is moving hid hand to my ass. Sick.
"Yes. How long is that offer good?" he asks. I start undoing his belt, then his pants making sure he does notice.
"As long as you want it to be, sexy," I tell him. I finish the job. But he doesn't notice. He smirks at my desperateness. If I had a heart (I do. I have blood to. I have to look, act, smell, and feel human to disguise myself), I would feel bad about what I was about to do. But I don't. He deserves it.
"Surprise," I say then yank down his pants to reveal his cowboy boxers. Good Goddess. Cowboy boxers. He stumbles and falls to the ground. Everyone is laughing. Even the Cullens/Hales are laughing. Some people are even clapping. I want to take a bow, but I can't until I get my message trough this kids uber thick head.
I bend down and grab his shirt. "Never, ever, disrespect a woman again or you may just land in a deep load of shit." I stand up, and dust myself off. I pick up my soda and turn my back to him. I know that there is no way I'm going to walk out of here like this. So I start to shake my unopened soda. Hard.
I feel him stand up, fix his pants, and then picks up Alice's' tray of food. "Hey!" she yells. But it's not like she needs the food anyway. Vampyres don't eat human food.
"Boy," I say with my back turned. "You better not hit me with any of that food or you will find my foot up your ass."
"Is that a threat?" he asks clearly amused.
"No," I say. "It's a promise."
"Good," he says. Then the stupid idiot throws the food. I move towards Edward to avoid getting pelted with cafeteria pizza then grab Edwards metal butter knife (which I must say looks pretty sharp) Turn around, aim the shaken bottle of soda at the kid, and slice off the top of the bottle spraying him with Strawberry Soda.
"Opps," I say. "My bad." Everyone is laughing again. (AN: by the way. In case you're wondering. All the staff has been called to a meeting, that's why none of the teachers are interrupting. He stalks up to me and hit's me with today's jello, then walks out of the cafe. I resist the urge to pick him up and throw him to Canada.
All the Cullens are laughing hysterically at me. I see black and blue……on their perfect skin. I whip around to face them. "Be careful," I say to them. "I might just share my 'lil blessing with you. Starting with you ugly hair." I point to Rosalie. Emmett makes an inaudible growl but I hear it anyway. In his mind. "Or maybe I should start with her sexy protector," I say looking suggestively at Emmett. Personally. He's not my type. I know Edward it trying to get into my mind, but I block him out completely. I don't want a Night Creature in my head.
I laugh when they all growl. I know Rosalie's gonna give it to Emmett later for being so attractive to humans, but really. I'm not interested. I whisper so only they can hear me. No one is watching me, us, anymore but I should still be cautious. "Careful Rose. If you act too un-lady like people might think that you and Emmett didn't do it after all." I turn to Emmett next.
"Here," I hand him a paper with my number on it. "This person will get rid of psychotic girlfriends," I jerk my head at Rose. With one last look I murmur a "good luck" to them.
I finally make it my car. I blast my Linkin Park CD so loud I'm sure they can here it all over school. I'm still a little heated from my 'incident' in the cafe. that I blast the AC. I summon my faithful BOP and start to look for a spell that I had already created to use on the kid from the cafe. I find it in seconds. I repeat the spell 13 times (my lucky #'s; 12, 13, 36) and drive home.
Thanks to my ludicrous driving I arrive home within seconds. I was so steamed. Forget staying a week here. I don't wanna stay another day. I slam the car door shut, and blow up the front door. I'm sure they can hear it all the way to Seattle, but there's no smoke so the Police won't think to come here.
"GUYS!" I yell once I'm inside the house. "I know you can here me! If you don't get here soon I'm sending a Flying Bomb to the Mansion!" Instantly four figures appear in front of me.
"Calm down, Alex!"
"Damn, girl. I was in the shower."
"I was winning a sword fight against David."
"You were not, Sean."
"Shut up! I don't care! I'm going home I don't want to spend another day here. I hate the Cullens. Why can't I just blow them up! (AN: BTW the house is spelled against ease droppers, so anyone trying to look inside or listen is only going to hear loud music and me reading a book, or cooking) If you want these Vampyres so bad the send someone else 'cause I QUIT!" I screamed.
"WHO DO YOU SUGGEST WE SEND, ALEX! HUH! WHO CAN WE SEND! THIS IS YOUR JOB! YOUR RESPONSIBILITY! YOUR DESTINY! WHO CAN WE SEND THAT WON'T GET KILLED ACCIDENTALLY!" William screamed.
"I DON'T CARE! IT'S NOT MY JOB ANYMORE I QUIT. I REFUSE TO COMPLETE THIS MISSION! AND I SUGGEST ON OF YOU GO THEN!" I calm down a bit. "I'm going on a much needed vay cay (Vacation) and never coming back to Forks again," I tell them. "I'll contact you when I feel like coming back to work again." I pause. "If I come back to work again."
"What!"
"You can't!"
"This is your job!"
"I absolutely forbid it!" yelled David. We stared at him in amazement. David and Zach were, are, the calmer of the four. David, the calmest, and most reasonable.
"Too bad," I say my voice dead and cold. "You have no leverage, and you can't stop me."
"Isabella Swan." He says. "You will NOT abandon this mission" I opened my mouth to say something. "You will listen to us." They nodded.
"Humph. I refuse. Isabella Swan is dead. Do you understand. She's GONE. Never to return again. And you guys KILLED HER! I promise you. She isn't coming back. Ever." They flinched.
"You owe us. If we hadn't saved you then you would be living in a hell on Earth as some Night Creatures plaything."
"And what about you! I'm only your weapon! You're upper hand. You didn't save me. You used me." My voice cold and unwavering.
"Used you or not" William started. "You have a blood oath to fulfill your destiny. In case you don't remember." Oh I remember that all right. I signed it willingly, but I didn't think that they would sink so low. And why are they so intent on keeping my here anyway.
"Fine," I growl. The blood oath. I can't go back on that. You can't break a blood oath. "Get out. Now." I tell them. They nod their heads in understanding, but how could they. How could they understand what they don't know.
I sighed and fixed the door. I was going to be here for a long time. I just knew it.
