CHAPTER 5
PART ONE MY NEW LIFE
I got up, and got dressed, the usual. I had no idea what to think of today. I had met a new boy yesterday. Edward Cullen. Just the thought of his name sent chills down my back. I really did not remember much from the day before just meeting HIM. And that was it I remember meeting friends just not all the details like um for instance falling asleep. I guess it didn't matter I was so caught up in the beautiful face I had seen yesterday that nothing else mattered. Well the only problem was that that beautiful face seemed to cringe at the thought of me.
I fixed Charlie breakfast and gave myself a look over in the mirror. I stepped outside and was taken aback by the gust of cold air. I took just a moment to look at my truck and got in before I could be killed by the mighty power of the cold and rain. I jumped in and quickly drove to the school. I just had to see if the shiny Volvo was there.
When I pulled into the parking lot I felt a gush of relief as I saw the bright shining piece of metal sticking out among all the cars. I was a little early so I was surprised to see the car there.
Later when we were heading for lunch the first place I looked was THEIR lunch table I was shocked that I just got a coke to drink. I heard someone say something about how I wasn't hungry. I just mumbled a reply. I wasn't sure if I could sit down. I felt faint. I just knew that it was my fault that he wasn't here. I knew that was stupid to think. But it was just too ironic for him NOT to be here the day after I come.
Something deep down in me told me he would be back. Something told me he would come back and we would want to be friends maybe more than that. I shuddered at the thought that was impossible. I had scared him away not brought him toward me. It was silly to think such a thing. I turned to Jessica and tried to make a conversation. It was no use. For some reason I felt weird, like I couldn't remember anything about my past life. I mean I knew that I had a mom named Renee' .And a dad named Charlie. But I just couldn't remember details. It was like everything in my past life I could not remember. Like a vacation I could think of none, thou I know I had to have been on one. I figured this Edward thing was just getting in my head and I really should just forget it.
I had so many odd feelings for the rest of the day.
I went through the rest of the day with the same feeling. Like I was missing something. But I tried to focus on other things without succeeding. I had this feeling like my life was going to change. I had another feeling that eventually Edward and I would somehow be friends. But these feelings weren't complete like I couldn't tell the whole story like I was only reading half the story or watching half the movie.
But through the muddy mess that was in my mind I felt complete. Like something I had been wanting for a while had been accomplished. I did not want to move to Forks so I know that could not be it, or maybe I did want to move to forks and didn't know it.
Part 2
Bellas new life my old life
"I am just tired of twilight!" my friend Marcie screamed, "It's all anyone talks about anymore."
"How can you be tired of twilight?" I argued. We were sitting at the lunch table and I was talking about twilight, as usual, I only had about three friends who like it as much as I do. And only one who LOVES it as much as I do.
I have to admit I was obsessed and I was almost positive my friends were going to start sending in the men in white coats if I made up another fantasy about me and Edward getting together.
But something was weird when I woke up this morning. I felt like I had hooked up with Edward, like I had known him all my life, and when I picked up my twilight book to read the end of it. I didn't get all emotional about it like I always did. I just felt like I had lived it. I was probably getting tired of it. I shuddered at the thought. I could never get tired of twilight.
"Only 14 more days Brandi oooo 1 2 3 4" my friends teased knowing I was going crazy waiting for the movie.
'Guys that's not FAIR do not taunt me!" I said only half jokingly.
I couldn't wait to get home to watch the twilight trailor I had watched one every day after school. But this morning I watched one and felt like I had done that and said those exact same things. I must have dreamed it was the only explanation I could think of.
So I talked my way through school ignoring the strong nagging sensation I got when I thought of anything twilight.
