Chapter 2

BPOV

Edward and I drove to school in comfortable silence with our hands linked together.

When we drove into the school grounds, practically everyone's head swiveled to look at us. Perfect, two seconds in the school grounds and we're already the centre of attention. Edward drove on to the staff car park before stopping the car's engine. There were lots of cars parked here but no one was around; all the teachers must have all arrived earlier and gone to get ready for classes.

He turned to me 'Have a good day love' he said, giving me a quick peck on the lips, but I made it more. I ran my fingers through his hair, securing his face to mine. Then it all ended too soon, when Edward pulled away. 'I know you love me but we can't be seen doing that sort of thing in public' he chuckled, opening the car door and stepping out.

I groaned and stepped out as well, draping my scruffy shoulder bag over my shoulder.(Alice had complained and said that I needed a Gucci handbag instead but somehow I won the argument and got to take a normal Target shoulder bag) I sighed and looked at my surroundings, nothing had changed. And I could just make out repair men repairing the shattered glass of the hall windows. I shivered at the thought of that last show down with Tanya.

Edward was by my side in a flash. 'Are you okay? Is it too soon to be around humans?' he asked wearily.

'No, it's just memories, I'll be fine.' I sighed, smiling an unconvincing smile. It had only been a month since I had been changed, but I had already proved that I could be around humans at 'Bella's Funeral'.

'You sure? I can take you home now and wait until you're ready' he said, placing his hands on either side of my arms.

'Positive' I said sternly. He still looked skeptical but he dropped the subject.

'Do you want me to walk you too class?' he offered as we started walking out of the car park.

'Don't you think it would look a little odd if a teacher was walking a student to their class?'

'Oh, right'

We eventually got to the front office and He turned to me again 'Sure you'll be fine?'

'Edward, I'm 100% sure. You have to stop worrying about me' I sighed.

'But that's my job, worrying about you' he said, cupping my face with his hands and slowly leaning in.

'No, your job is my teacher and right now you have to be professional' I said, placing my hand over his lips.

I felt his lip curl into a smile and he kissed the palm of my hand 'I'll see you at 3 o'clock' he said before turning to walk down the hallway. I sighed and walked into the main office. The warm air blasted against my face and the smell of the receptionist's blood filled my nostrils, causing my throat to burn and the venom began to pool in my mouth.

But I swallowed it back and walked confidently up to the desk.

'Hi, I'm Emerald Cullen, I'm new here' I said.

'Okay Miss Cullen, let me just find your timetable' Mrs. Cope said, not looking at me. 'Ah, here we are' she said handing it to me. When her eyes met mine, her mouth gaped open. 'But...ah...Gah...Err...Umm' she stared at me in astonishment.

'Are you okay?' I said, quickly grabbing the piece of paper out of her hand and edging towards the door.

Mrs. Cope shook her head 'I'm sorry but you look extremely like a student that used to go here, Isabella Swan, have you heard of her?'

'Ah, no, should I have?'I asked, still edging slowly closer and closer to the door.

She swallowed and her heart rate sped up 'She died just recently, I went to her funeral.' I could see the blood pumping through her carotid artery and imagined sinking my teeth into it and drinking the blood that would come spurting out-

Wait, what was I thinking?! I had to get out of this room.

'Well it has been nice talking to you, but I really should be getting to class now' I said as I quickly slipped out of the door, leaving a very confused Mrs. Cope to her thoughts.

I took a deep breath of fresh air before walking to my next class. I noticed that I had the exact same timetable as last time a realized that I was taking Bella's place. The up side of it was that I had Edward for Biology in sixth period.

I walked quickly to my first class with Mr. Mason. As I slipped through the door, I realized that the class had already started. I put much head down in embarrassment and shuffled to the first free seat I saw. Bad idea.

Almost as soon as I sat down someone beside me whispered 'Bella?'

I resisted the urge to look at the person who was speaking to me but when they kicked me from under the desk, I looked up and whispered back 'What?'

I looked into the bewildered face of Mike Newton. 'Bella?' he whispered again.

'No, my name is Emerald' I said simply 'and you are?'

'Don't play this game with me Bella, I would know you anywhere. I went to your funeral for god's sake'

'I don't recall going to my funeral but then again I don't think I would remember it much because I would be dead' I joked. 'And I still don't know your name'

'It's Mike, Mike Newton. But you would already know that'

'Pleased to meet you, but I'm sorry to disappoint you but I didn't know your name to begin with' I whispered quickly. He opened his mouth to say something more but the teacher cleared his throat and started tapping his foot.

Mike quickly muttered an apology and we didn't speak again in the lesson. When the bell finally rang, I ran out the door and to the next class to avoid talking to Mike again.

I walked into Trigonometry and sat in Bella's usual place.

'Hi, you must be the new girl. I'm Jessica Stanley' Jessica said confidently, sitting next to me.

'Hi, Emerald Cullen' I said offering my hand to shake, but quickly pulling it back, realizing that my hand would be ice cold to her.

'Another Cullen! I heard that they were quite a family, how many are there now?'

'Eight including Carlisle and Esme' I nodded 'Yeah, quite a family'

'So are you like Mr. Cullen's sister now?' she still hadn't taken her eyes off her nails she was examining. It amazed me that she hadn't recognized me yet. Some friend she was!

'Yep, I guess you could say we were family' I smiled at my inside joke.

'Lucky, I would kill to live with that hunk of muscle' she giggled. Jealousy washed over me and I subconsciously balled my fingers into fists. How dare she hit on my husband! Luckily the teacher came into the classroom and started the class before I could attack her.

That hour flew past and the bell for lunch rang through the small class room. As I was collecting all my books, Jessica came up to me.

'Hey, do you want to sit with my group at lunch? It's better than sitting on your own' she suggested.

'Umm, yeah sure, that would be nice' I smiled.

'Great!' she squealed and led me out of the room. As we walked into the cafeteria, I smelt Edward nearby and looked around to see him standing near the door.

His eyes met mine and he smiled his crooked smile. I licked my lips seductively causing him to chuckle. After that he left the cafeteria. It finally occurred to me that he must have been waiting for me. Just the thought made me feel warm and fuzzy all over.

'Come on Emerald, over here!' Jessica called from a table in the middle of the cafeteria. I swiftly walked over to the table and sat down.

'Okay everyone, this is Emerald, she's new here' Jessica introduced me to everyone. Angela and Lauren looked at me in a weird way and Mike Tyler and Eric just sat there drooling over me. I could practically feel the heat building in their crotch.

I shuddered and excused myself, saying I was going to go get food.

I quickly dashed around a corner and into an empty classroom. Once I locked the door, I pulled out my water bottle. Edward had thought it would be best if I stayed fully satisfied the whole day so he had given me a bottle full of deer blood to take to school.

I eagerly gulped down the thick sickly liquid. I didn't realize how thirsty I was until the blood touched my tongue.

'Hello Bella' said a voice in my ear and I almost spat out all the blood in shock. 'Careful, it took me awhile to drain that deer' Edward said as he licked the blood off my chin that had dribbled down.

'Edward! Give me a heart attack why don't you?' I complained.

'What? Is it a criminal offence to want to talk to my lovely wife?' he said adoringly in between kisses.

'No, but it is a criminal offence, as my teacher, to be kissing me in public' I said, but I still didn't stop kissing him.

'When I heard what those boys back at you table were thinking, I had to come and find you to make sure you weren't being raped by them'

'Ha ha ha, so funny' I said sarcastically.

'I wasn't joking' he said as he lifted me up and placed me on a table. ' I haven't seen you all morning and when you licked your lips at me in the cafeteria' he stopped to kiss me forcefully on the lips 'Well, I just couldn't help myself'

I sighed deeply 'What am I going to do with you?'

'Kiss me? Hold me? Say that you love me?' he suggested.

I wound my arms around his neck and pulled his face till his forehead was touching mine 'That sound's pretty good to me, Mr. Cullen' I said seductively.

'Don't forget you're Mrs. Cullen' he reminded before bring his lips to mine for a long and passionate kiss.

The only thing that caught my attention was a sudden movement on the other side of the window.

I quickly pulled away and asked 'Did you see that?'

'No' he said, annoyed that I had ended the kiss so soon.

'There was a movement near the window' I said looking at the window 'We shouldn't be doing this right here, we could get caught' I said sliding off the table and picking my bag up off the floor.

'Fine, but you owe me big time tonight' he pouted.

I giggled 'I'm all yours' he slid his hands down my waist and started to lean in 'Tonight' I finished and walked through the door. 'See you in the next lesson' I called behind me and stepped out into the hallway.

'Emerald!' called Mike from down the corridor. I quietly shut the door behind me; Edward could find another way out.

'Oh, Hey Mike' I said giving him a fake smile.

'What were you doing in there?' he said pointing to the door behind me.

'Oh…umm…I had to take my…umm…medicine' I lied.

'Really? You know you shouldn't be ashamed of taking medicine' he laughed.

'Okay, I'll remember that next time'

'Now kissing a teacher, that's something to be ashamed of' he said, walking past me and around the corner.

I froze. Was it just an example or had he seen me and Edward?

The bell rang and I convinced myself that it was just a coincidence but I could get rid of that uneasy feeling in the pit of my stomach as I set off to Biology.

OMG MIKE MIGHT KNOW!!! lol
