What the Mind Wants

"Another Day", I thought as I opened my eyes. I haven't slept in over a century, but it still helps to pretend at times. I rose from my couch and started getting dressed.

I grabbed my backpack and headed down the stairs to wait for my siblings in the living room. Today was the start to another long year of repetition. I've experienced highschool, so many times I could teach each subject perfectly.

I sat down on the couch and listened to the minds of my family. Everyone seemed to be in his or her own world. Jasper was reading to Alice, Emmett was playing video games in his room, Esme was waiting patiently for Carlisle, and Rosalie was playing in the garage. When she came in I noticed she was covered in oil, and had smudges all over her face. She nodded her head in acknowledgement, and greeting me with her thoughts.

"Morning Rose, hurry and get dressed I want to get there early today okay." She nodded and continued on her way. This statement was not just specifically for her, but for all my siblings. I knew everyone had heard me, because soft movements started to commence upstairs.

I heard someone walking down the stairs, so I looked up to see a smiling Esme. I smiled back at her, but she knew it wasn't genuine. I hadn't really smiled since…. No, Edward stop thinking about her…I scold myself. During this time Esme had walked down the rest of the stairs and was sitting beside me. She had a soft smile on her face letting me know to listen.

"Good morning Edward, how are you doing today?" I smiled at her question. It was the same question she's greeted me with everyday since I've been reunited with the family.

"I'm fine Esme," I whispered back.

"That's good to know. Today's the first day back to school. Has Alice seen anything interesting for today?"

I raised my eyebrows at this inquiry. "Not that I know of. She hasn't told me anything. Why do you ask?"

"Oh no reason just a mother being watchful. Here come your brothers and sisters." I looked up in just in time to see four other siblings walking down the stairs. They all greeted me with their thoughts, and I nodded to acknowledge them.

"Good morning everyone. I hope you all are prepared for your first day back." Esme stated. "Alice I was wondering if you've seen anything unique about today?"

Alice seemed to be in a trance like state, but I knew a lot of things were going through her mind at the moment. Alice finally returned to her normal state and looked at Esme directly. "No Esme. Everything seems to be normal. Why do you ask?"

"Oh no reason I just wanted to make sure everything's going to be okay today." She smiled to reassure us, but Jasper picked up something else.

"Are you sure Esme? You seem a little nervous," he asked pointedly. She turned to Jasper, and with one quick nod left the room. I tired to follow her train of thoughts through the house, but she was blocking them very well. I looked at my other siblings, but they all just shrugged their shoulders and turned towards the door.

We walked out to the yard and headed to my simple Black BMW. I could no longer drive the Volvo, because it reminded me too much of… Edward stop thinking of her…

We all piled into my car and headed to school. It only took us a few minutes to get to there. Teachers were just arriving, and hardly any student cars were found in the parking lot. I parked next to a black Subaru Forester. When I stepped out of the car I smelled a faint scent of Freesia.

I looked around to locate the source, but before I could pin point it the scent was gone. I looked at my siblings to see if they smelled it too, but none did. Maybe I've finally lost it, and I'm slowly going crazy.

I kept looking around the parking lot trying to pick up the scent again, but it never came. It wasn't until Alice called my name that I noticed my siblings were staring at me from distance. I walked up to them as quickly as human speed would allow, but was met by a concerned Alice. "Edward what's wrong?" I looked at her and then to those standing beside her. Each one stood there watching me with sad concerned eyes. I hated when they looked at me in this way. It's as if they pitied me for my loss.

I turned my head from side to side and answered, "I'm fine Alice. My minds just playing tricks on me today. Let's go to the office and pick up our schedules. I'd really prefer to skip out on homeroom today." They all nodded and we headed towards the office.

It didn't take long for us to reach the office. I was still trying to figure out what I smelled in the parking lot when Alice popped in my head. "Edward it's going to be okay."

Emmett pulled open the door and I walked into the office. I was hit with the most appetizing scent I've smelled in a long time. It was sweet and juicy with a hint of freesia. My mouth started to water, and I was complete lost in this delicious scent. My mind was reeling from the scent that it took me a few minutes to realize I was holding on to someone.

I looked down into a beautiful women face. She had chocolate brown eyes and dark brown hair. If I didn't know better I'd have said this was my… Bella

I guess sometimes the mind wants what the mind wants.
