Hi everyone! I'm back with an update for this story XD I'm sad to say only one person guessed correctly with my little contest. Lawenforcementcheetah, A.k.a Andie, who was the only one to actually be able to point out it would be 23552 for Bella and not the 22552 it is (great chance for foreshadowing though. HEHEHEH XDXDXD) well.. i won't keep you much longer..

Once again the title has nothing to do with the chapter

without further ado, chapter 2 (that rhymed)

chapter 2: Ein Zwei Polizei (german techono by modo, go download now! its funny) (here we get a snippet into Ryan's life starting after the assembly)

What had happened? The moment before that girl had passed him, he was fine.

"Um, Excuse me." A soft voice reached my ears as someone tapped on my shoulder. I turned around. It was that same girl from this morning. The same girl that made Edward act weird.

"Yeah?" My voice might have been a bit to harsh, for she flinched back, but continued anyways.

"That guy you were with this morning... did he.." She couldn't seem to phrase her words right. "Did he... uh.. say... uh...um... no.. never mind." She ran off without letting me respond. I stared blankly after her. What was she gonna ask? I had to find out. There was no telling if Edward was back yet, i might as well use this time wisely.

I took off after her. She was on our floor, so she must be heading there now. None of the girls were in class today and I could always say i felt ill. I saw her turn the corner and sped up. I had to catch up to her before she caught up with her other friend. I recalled her name the girl had used this morning.

"Bella!" I shouted once she was in my view again. As expected, she came to a halt and looked for the source of her name. I came to a halt in front of her and bent over to catch my breath. "What were you gonna ask me?" i managed to keep my voice even and calm.

"It was nothing." I doubted that, for two reasons. Girls always have a reason and Edward never reacted that way to anyone. She had to of noticed it.

"Seriously. Just tell me." My voice was still surprisingly calm. I grabbed her hand, preventing her from the escape she began.

"I have to go." She said through clenched teeth and shoved me against the wall next to her door. She was in the room before i could form a response.

"Dammit." I growled and walked over to my door, inspecting the tape. Yep... Gone... Either Edward was back or the rooms were checked. I opened the door slowly. The lights were out and the blinds drawn, causing the room to be cloaked in darkness. "Edward?" I called cautiously. What really happened earlier?

"I owe ya 50." He spoke calmly as i entered the room. I just laughed and sat down on my bed.

"What happened earlier?" I mean, He told me himself he needed to hunt soon, but still, he was fine 2 minutes before we saw her.

"I don't know how to explain it. Her scent was so ... strong... I couldn't breathe without feeling the ache of needing her blood. Specifically her blood. No other blood would do at that point." He spoke quietly, I had to strain to hear his tortured words. This must've been hard for him, he never had any weaknesses. And now that one appeared that was out of his control what was he gonna do?

"But you didn't. You restrained yourself. Thats.."

"She hates me... Or thinks I hate her. Either way, this sucks." What did he mean? "It wasn't just her blood I wanted..." Did he just admit what i think he did?

"oh..." He didn't even sound phased that he was talking about wanting more then blood, but body too. "I'm going to talk to her." I stood uncertainly, awaiting his answer. Or his argument. He didn't speak, so i left the room. Could it be possible that, the very thing we were joking about this morning, was the very feeling he had? I stopped right outside their door. Would she even want to talk to me?

I knocked once. If they didn't want to answer, I wouldn't pester them. The door swung open as if..

"I expected you would be back.." Bella's dejected voice came from interior as i heard her scurrying around, picking up random stuff from the floor. The girl who opened the door was the other one we had seen this morning. I took a deep breath.

"I need to..." the girl before me spoke.

"To talk to Bella. Gotcha." She held out her hand. "I'm Emma. Just Emma... Its not short for anything." I took her hand and brought it to my lips. I was always one for early 19th century style greetings. She giggled slightly, surprisingly not thoroughly disgusted. I choked back a sigh of relief.

"Ryan." I smiled casually, as if nothing had just happened.

"Come on." She led me into the dorm, just as Bella was shoving some clothes into the closet, and pointed to a chair. "Sit." I felt like I was being interrogated. She smiled. "Let the interrogation begin!" Emma clapped her hands together and Bella giggled softly. I felt as if she could read my mind. "And before you ask, no I'm am not a mind-reader." She smiled widely and directed the conversation over to Bella, her eyes never leaving me. I awkwardly shifted to face Bella.

"I just wanted to know what you were gonna ask..." She nervously tangled her fingers and Emma watched intently. I glanced at the door, knowing I wasn't even allowed in the girls dorms. That was the main topic of the assembly.

"Well... I was mainly wondering we he acted so... weird when we were in the hallway. One second he's... staring at me and the next second... he looks like... he wanted to kill me." How could I explain this without telling her the truth. I choked back a laugh. She guessed right. Perceptive. I think i was the only other human to actually notice anything unusual about him non-humanness.

"Nah, trust me, Edward wouldn't kill you, nor anyone, if his very soul depended on it." He claimed not to have a soul, so I wasn't technically lying. If he did kill her... well... Emma would have a bone to pick with me then. But I trusted Edward not to kill her, not to give in to his desires.

"Why did he look like that then?" Her voice was very quiet and, had i not spent the better part of the last year trying to hear Edward when he spoke quietly, I'm sure i would've missed it. While i thought about how to phrase my answer, i looked over at Emma, who was immersed in a book, or so I thought. Her eyes drifted up to mine before darting back to her thick book. I noticed a small smile and blush on her face. Focus, Ryan.. Focus.. I hated my A.D.D. sometimes.

"He has a hard time controlling his temper..." True. "and well... I pissed him off this morning." True. "And he was still pissed about that." False. "Then, i kinda brought the subject up again," false, "As you were walking past and... Well... you can assume the rest.." If I said anymore i was afraid I would give something away.

"You know what they say about those who assume.." Emma finally spoke. I glanced over at her to find she had closed her book and was staring intently at me.

"It makes an 'ass' out of 'u' and 'me'." Bella finished for her and I couldn't help but laugh.

There was a knock at the door.

"Quick, hide." Emma hissed before getting up slowly to walk to the door. To give me time to hide, i supposed.

"Where?" she pointed to her bed.

"Hurry, under there." Bella whispered and began tidying the room. the person knocked again.

"Coming!" Emma shouted in a sing-song tone. I quickly scooted under her bed. I heard the door open. "Hello..." Her voice slowly became less enthusisatic.

"I need to speak to Ryan..." Edward muttered very quickly and very angrily. I sighed in relief, knowing it was only Edward, only slightly fearing his anger. I could've gotten in a whole shit load of trouble for being in here, had it been an administrator.

"Sure thing." Emma seemed oblivious to his tone. I rolled out from underneath the bed and hopped up. Edward just laughed. Damn bipolar vampires.. "Bye Ryan." Was it just me, or did she seem sad to watch me leave?

There ya go! I hope you enjoyed. XDXDXD Emma pops up Emma: NIKI! WHERE DID THE FLUFF GO??? Me: backing away slowly Its.. uh... coming up soon... come on! Teenagers are slow these days!!! Emmi: BUT I WANT FLUFF!!!!! WAH!!!! Me: sighs there will be some next chapter... geez... stupid fluff lovers...
