By the time I had even a chance for reacting to Edwards' tense moment, a young boy walked into the room. He didn't even look old enough to be in high school, let alone a grade 12 class. He had wavy brown hair and dark brown eyes—so dark they looked almost black. His skin was pale, but not any different from the many students around me. He was unaware of the looks he got when he walked into the classroom, with the secretary close behind him. Oh… That explains him coming in late.
I turned my head to look at Edward, and he was looking at me closely, surprised oh how I looked. Why? I looked back up at the student whose name I didn't know, the secretary and the teacher. They were stepping out of the classroom, closing the door behind him. I let out a breath of air that I was unaware of holding and looked back at Edward. I could hear the students chattering to each other, more then likely, talking about the new guy.
"Are you fine?" Edward asked urgently, looking at me with something in his eyes I couldn't identify. I was confused. Why would he ask me that?
Just before I could answer, Alice and Jasper were in the room, closing the door quickly behind them. The class turned to look at them, but they were unaware of the looks they received.
"Bella, we have to go now!" Alice said urgently, looking around the classroom—a class that only had 1 way to leave, except for the windows. Oh no.
She was already walking to the window, with the class looking at us, probably wondering what the hell was going on, and I was right with them.
"Alice… Why do we have to leave? And why aren't you in your class? There is still like 6 minutes left!" I demanded, not looking at anybody with her.
She looked back at me, this time strained. Her eyes were strained to keep from grabbing me and running away—I always saw that look in Edward's eyes, and I became nervous.
Before I could turn around to ask Edward, he grabbed my arm—urgently.
"Bella, we have to go, please don't have a scene. We need to get out of here right now," he explained so low only Alice, Jasper and I could hear him. I nodded right away, not questioning him. I could trust Edward.
I turned my head to see where Jasper was, and he was collecting Edward and my school stuff, too fast for a human to be doing, but only a couple students were looking at him—their eyes were on Alice's, and I turned to see why.
She had already opened the window and Edward was already moving me towards the window, looking frantically at the door, reading the thoughts of those from behind.
"Bella, come on!" Alice cried from outside, and I turned back to look at her. The window wasn't even a jump. I just had to climb over the ledge, and take a small jump—something that I would've been incapable of doing as a human. Without even thinking about it anyone, I had jumped. It wasn't a big fall, but it was a whoosh nonetheless.
As I turned to dust the nonexistent dust off my jeans, I turned to look back up. Edward was already on the ledge, about to slide down, when I could hear the door opening—with Jasper still having to get out.
What the hell?
"Bella, come on! We have to go," Alice instructed, making me look at her. She was nervous, and I couldn't tell why. What was wrong with them?
Before I could even question her, Edward was holding me in his arms, shielding me against the window, looked back at the window. The teacher, who I could hear perfectly, was having a lot of trouble handling the fact 2 of his students were missing, and in their place, a student he didn't know.
"What are you doing in my classroom?! And where is Isabella and Edward?!" sputtered the teacher, having trouble comprehending the fact that we were gone, and there was a movie star looking student in his class.
"Come on, Jasper can handle it," whispered Alice, looking at Edward, and started to move forward. Without even thinking, Edward was holding me in his arms, with the wind blowing against my face—not that it did anything. With all the products in my hair, it could probably handle a tornado.
Before I had a chance to look up at Edward, we were already at the car. It wasn't a special car or anything, but it was Jasper's, so we weren't allowed to drive it—except for Alice.
"Get in the car Bella," commanded Alice, unlocking the doors, and looking at Edward.
Ugh, a in the mind conversation. I hated these, ever since I was human. I always felt left out of them.
Before I could even complain about the fact I was feeling left out, I decided to go into the car. Why complain when they were just going to force me to do something? As I settled in as best I could under these circumstances, Edward was sitting beside me, holding me close.
What the hell?
"Jasper will meet us at home. He's running," Alice stated, starting up the car, and moving fast from the parking spot. Something, I didn't entirely enjoy, even as a vampire.
Before I could complain, Edward was talking.
"Bella, did you smell the boy that was in the class?" he was looking at me urgently, and Alice was doing the same. They were making me nervous. Why would that matter?
I shook my head, answering their question.
"I didn't have the chance too. I was holding in my breath without even realizing it, and then… he left, and then you guys went all physco mania on me," I said, my voice turning kind… peeved.
Alice breathed a sigh of relief, and so did Edward.
What was wrong?
"Uh… Could you tell me why you did that? And why does it matter if I smelt him or not?!" I cried, looking at Edward, and then at Alice, before turning my glance back to Edward, who was staring at me.
"Bella… Alice had a vision when we were in first period, about the new student… and about you," he said it slowly—almost, painfully.
Whoah whoah whoah. Did he think I was going to go run away with that… 12 year old looking kid? I could feel my face turning angry, and Edward knew it too.
"No Bella, I didn't mean it like that!" he cried, holding my hands in his arm, looking at me in the eyes. They were honest—something that I could. I could tell how he was feeling through his eyes. Something that, I was glad I could do. Something that, well, made me feel even closer to him then anything.
I looked away for a moment, to look out the window. Alice was of course, driving way past the speed limit, but I wasn't that bothered by it. Ever since I became a vampire, I was able to handle the fast driving… Just something, I didn't like to do myself that often, unless needed. I turned my head back to Edward, and titled my head. He was still staring at me.
"What did you see then, exactly?" I asked, looking at him, wanting the honest truth.
He took a deep breath before answering, even though it wasn't needed and sighed.
"Bella… Alice saw you killing him."
I had to look at him even closely to see if he was joking, even though I knew he'd never joke about something so serious.
Before I could reply, Alice was pulling up into the driveway, slowly looking back at me.
"I'm so sorry Bella, for not seeing it sooner! But then that kid was changing his mind about what class to go in, and then...," she was nervous. She was worried I was going to be mad at her. But, I wasn't. I was glad she saw it.
I looked back at both of them before turning my attention back to Edward.
"Why did I want to kill him?" I asked slowly, terrified of the answer. I had become so good at controlling my thrist... I mean, I wasn't even effected by the people at my school, and then... they saw me kill that innocent boy! I was contemplating all the situations of my current situation before Jasper was at my window.
"Bella, calm down! It's okay, you're not going to hurt him," he let out quickly, probably feeling my emotions holding him down, like a wave.
I wasn't convinced, but Edward was already holding my hand, leading to our house, while talking to Alice. I wasn't even paying attention. I, Bella Cullen, was going to kill an innocent boy, when my thirst was under control.
The door opened without anyone, and then I realized Esme had opened it.
"Bella! What's wrong? Edward, Alice, what happened?" she asked, worried, taking me into a hug, of which, I couldn't even return.
Before I knew it, I was sitting on one of our couches, with Edward holding onto me, while Alice explained what happened to us at school. Even I didn't know exactly. I looked back at Edward, and his face was in a concerned face, looking at me.
"Edward, why was I going to kill that boy? Was it... because I... just wanted to do it for the fun?" I asked slowly, hurtful at even the idea of myself doing that. Before I could add something, Edward was already answering me.
"Bella, no! Not at all, it just... seems... his blood, was, calling for you, in the vision."
It hit me. The boy's blood was my singers, just like mine had been for Edward.
Ohh, I hope you enjoyed it! I mean, it's just such a wonderful chapter. Ha ha. Well, eww, school for me tomorrow. Gag me, why don't you? AND THEN, my best friend is sleeping over, and so, I don't think I'll be able to write tomorrow, but, I'll have a new chapter up hopefully by Thursday! I just have to write it. Yay!
