Alright… I'm dedicated to this story right now! I've had it stuck in my head and I need to get it out so I won't be updating on my other account. There are three lovingmai accounts, one is my friends. Just type in lovingmai in the search for authors and there they will be. Lovingmailiaf is the one I've had ever since I started writing so it's those stories where there's not much detail if you like that. Ignore the author notes, they're all about reviews cuz I wanted a lot. No need for that now, just care about how many people actually read the story.

Chapter 3: School

I wake up and see Edward sitting on a chair in the far corner of the room. He watches me closely and I start feeling uncomfortable. I've been here for one day and he watches me like I took Bella away from him. Well. I've had two flashbacks so far, don't know if they're mine, but I think I should tell them. Or not… then they'll be even more angry at me because Bella, gone. Well if I do end up Bella, what happens then? They'd want me to stay and I wouldn't be able to finish my quest. I'm guessing it is a huge thing, so, sorry, but I don't control life.

When I sit up Edward shifts his eyes and stands up. "Are you hungry?" he asks. I wait a while til answering. Trying to feel if I'm hungry or not.

"No." His face drops and sits on the edge of the bed.

"Have you gotten anything? Memories?"

I thought about telling him, but decided against it. I'm sticking with the fact that they'd keep me from my quest if I do end up who they think I am. "No. I can't retrieve memories after one night."

"Sorry, I'm just sure you're Bella. But I don't want to make a mistake, so I'm waiting for your decision." See? There's the second clue that say my fact is correct. He's anxiously waiting for me to be Bella and after that he won't let me do what I was sent for.

"Sorry to disappoint, but what would you do if I'm not Bella?"

"I'm sure you're Bella." I sigh and stand up. My feet drag against the carpet as I walk out of the room and see Alice sitting on the couch having a kissing feast with Jasper.

"Get a room," I laugh. Alice kisses Jasper one more time with even more passion and I could tell Jasper wanted to take her clothes off. She finally pulls away and glares at me.

"I see you feel comfortable here."

"Well, things do feel familiar. But, I'm some girl who has no memories and was suddenly in an opening with angel wings. So, everything should feel somewhat familiar."

"Well, then let's experiment. Come to school with us!"

"Alice," Edward growls from behind me. Alice and I read each others minds and ignore Edward completely. "Who knows what—"

"Shut up." She interrupts him. "So, what do you think? You can take the place of—"

"Don't say it…" I say and Alice rethinks her actions. "I'm not Bella. I'm Esther." Alice puts on a fake smile and pretends like that never happened. I know that that statement could possibly be a lie. One the other hand, I'm jumping to conclusions way too early.

"So, are you gonna answer?"

"Y-yeah. Why not? But I'm NOT Bella! I'm going in as Esther."

"Okay! I'll get Esme call in."

"Got it!" Esme called from the kitchen in the next room.

"Anyways, let's get you dressed!" She grabbed my wrist and pulled me upstairs to her room/closet. After searching through the entire room, she finally picked out the "perfect" outfit for me. She threw it at me and pushed me into a bathroom. I sighed, I better get used to it. No one knows how long I'll be here.

I looked at the outfit. A black zip front tie-dye dress, black high boots that come up a little above my knees, and a black choker necklace with silver angel wings hanging off of it. I slipped on each item slowly, trying to stall things a bit. School, me look like Bella, people thinking I am Bella. Horrible day today will end up being. Alice knocks on the door and I quickly put on the necklace. I open the door and Alice tows me down the stairs and when I get down, everyone stares with sadness in their eyes.

"I get it, the first thing you guys think of is Bella! Is everything about her? All you guys are like Bella, Bella, Bella! My name is Esther!" I yell waving my hands in the air. Hoping they get the point, I take a deep breath and act like what happened was days ago. "Are we going?"

"O-of course," Rosalie says, a little frightened by how angry I can get. We all walk out, me and Edward in the back. Edward turns to the right and enters a silver Volvo. I stop in place and see Rosalie, Alice, Emmett, and Jasper enter a Porsche. "You can ride with Edward."

I looked towards his car and he stares up in amusement. Sighing once again, I stroll towards Edward's car and climb into the passenger seat. He practically stared at me through the mirrors the entire ride. I'm almost so annoyed I'd climb across the seat and yelled right into his face, "Staring is rude! All you think of when you look at me is BELLA! I am Bella, but not for much longer! Anyways the love I might've felt for you is all gone!" Just to get him off my back. Not necessarily saying I am Bella, but it's better than him obsessing over that I've taken on my true form. Blah, Blah, Blah. How important can one girl get?

I stare out the window, trying to ignore Edward's eyes burning through my head. As my eyes travel to the blurriness of the trees and finding shapes in the sky, I still feel those eyes staring right at me. Through the mirror outside the car I'd try not to think about his glaring too much, but my eyes flicker to it once in a while. The drive was only about 10 minutes, but it seemed like way longer. By the time we enter the school parking lot I'm ready to jump out and get as far away from him as possible to stop the uncomfortable feelings he gives me.

Yet, when I do try, the door is locked and I practically slam my head on the window. Edward lets out a small chuckle and it grows louder, creeping me out. I close my eyes and take a deep breath. "Trying to get away from me are ya'?" he asks. I take a deep breath and hope I could disappear.

"Let me out," I demand.

"C'mon, I need to talk to you. There are some people here that will be mean to you. Then others will try to… 'get with you'. Just ignore them." Seeing I didn't answer he sighed and unlocked the car and I was out. I practically ran to the office to get my schedule. They gave me a piece of paper and told me to get all my teachers to sign it. As I grabbed my books from my locker, a guy was behind it when it closed.

"Hey, you're…." he started. Somehow we decided I was Edward's Ex. Jeez, why not a cousin?

"Esther. Edwards ex," I say. Wow, sounds even weirder coming out of my mouth. The guy nodded his head, then smiled. It might've been the once smile I've seen that is actually real.

"So, since you're an ex… That means you're single?" I laugh. It's not really that funny, but it's the kind of funny that it's so stupid you have to laugh.

"Sorry, but yes. I'm single."

"So, would you like to hang with me after school? There's this one cave at the beach me and my friends go to all the time." He takes a step closer to me, closing me in against the lockers.

"Sure. Mine as well try to make some new friends."

He smiled and took a step back. "Sorry, habit." He then walked away, turning back after a few steps. "I'll pick you up at the back of the school." He smiled and walked away. I smiled too. Well, that got Edward out of my mind for a while. I sighed and turned around.

"Speaking of the devil," I mumble as I stare down Edward in front of me.

"What do you want?" I sigh.

"We have the first class together." I put on a sarcastic smile.

"Oh, joy," I say then roll my eyes. I take a deep breath and walk away past him. As I try not to look, my mind just comes to a memory. Something I wish weren't true, but it probably is…

I walk away into the woods, Edward stalking behind me. The sky is cloudy as usual. The school bell rings and we both don't care. I continue to walk into the woods, finding the right opening. After finding a place far away from anyone to hear, I stop. If I get killed, so be it. Edward stops behind me, and I barely even notice him, but I know he's there.

"You're incredibly fast… and cold." I shiver. Remembering the day he took me out to eat. "You're skin is pale white. You don't go out in the sunlight…" There a dramatic pause. My mind flickers to the key words at the website I found. Super-speed. Ice skin. Pale. Immortal. "I know what you are…" I'm then afraid. What would happen if he is one? How would this effect things?

"Say it." My eyes twitch and I know exactly what he is. To think that creature that haunts humans to go out at night. What they're afraid of. Something that could easily kill them in on movement. "Out loud." I wanted to scream it out, to get it out of my head. But my lips stayed frozen. Unable to speak is something that could come to worse. So I have to… "Say it!"

"A vampire," I let out, sucking in a breath, afraid of what happens next. They've lived here for so long and haven't been caught. Then I come along and I find the secret. They could leave… or worse, they could kill me.

"Are you afraid?" (alright so this IS different from the book/movie if you concentrate! Bella wasn't afraid, here she is) Yes. I am. Where do I stand now? Do I even live another day?

"Yes…"

"Good." He relaxes and I know what comes next. My death. The one point where you can say anything you can. The words people will cherish their lives. Simple words that mean a lot coming from someone dead. "Now what are you going to do?"

I choke in my sobs as tears come out my eyes. "Nothing. There's nothing stopping you anymore… This is it." I close my eyes and wait for the pain that never comes. Instead I feel someone's lips against mine. When I open my eyes I see Edward. He kisses me once more gently. His hand brushes away my tears.

"I'm not a killer… We're different. We… drink animal blood. I want to show you something." He flung me on his back and ran. The trees were smeared into thin lines and in seconds we were somewhere. Sunlight was only a step away from us. Edward took off his shirt and I stared. He chuckled. "Wait for it." He stepped into the sunlight and his body shimmered. It looked like a million diamonds were on his skin where the sun touched. He held out his hand and I stared at it.

"It's beautiful…"

"Don't be afraid. Your blood is calling to me. It's something someone told me. Every vampire is connected to one human. Their blood appeals to them so much, but they are able to control themselves around that person. That person for me is you. Please, don't leave. It's happened to someone I know and now she will be lonely forever."

"I will… never leave." I stepped into the sunlight with him and touched his chest. "I promise." I leaned up and kissed him. My fear replaced with love.

I act like I never remembered that and sit in the far corner of the room. Edward sits two tables away from me, and I'm trying not to do anything suspicious. But I know as short of the time I've been here, it's not going to be much longer until I regain all these memories and I'm gone. My promise broken. Edward will be that person who's lonely. I can't let that happen.

I look towards him and I smile. He looks up and smiles back. I reach into my bag, looking for my pencil and find a note. I decide I'll read it later and find my pencil. Edward watches me and I find the feelings of when I found out what he and his family are. I don't care. I was shocked when I remembered, but when you remember memories, you get back the feelings with it. My hope is that I will get that feeling over and over again. Store it up for when the worse is to happen.

3 chapters and it's this far. The story might be short, but I'm not too sure. I have stuff planned for the action part, but I always change my mind when it comes to her memories. If you don't know yet, she is Bella! So I'm most likely stalling at this point. I want to get to at least 5 chapters before she gets all her memories. So let's see what happens.
