Alice POV

I listened with mild interest to the debate going on in my English class. Little did they know that there was a vampire sitting in their midst. In my hundred - odd years, I had been in hundreds - thousands - of English classes. They had no idea the things I'd done, the things I'd seen.

But this - this I'd never seen before, not in a classroom, at least.

Arguing over whether certain myths were based on fact.

In a nutshell, whether vampires were real or not.

With a bemused expression on my face, I slowly raised my hand. The teacher noticed me instantly.

'Yes Alice?'

'Well, sir, it's just, I know people say that drinking blood is vulgar and especially when it's from a human, but we eat animal flesh do we not?'

The teacher frowned for a minute and blinked a couple of times before he could come up with an answer.

'Well, young Alice, according to the Bible…'

But I was no longer listening. All of a sudden, an image of Edward came into my head. He was in biology…and…My thoughts were incoherent as the smell hit my senses. That…It's…blood! But whose…? The my brother turned his head and looked towards the girl. Bella Swan. Yes, I'd heard her name on the tounge of every 'popular' in this school, and then…

Edward was going to attack!

Bella POV

His stony glare unnerved me. I blushed. Did I offend him in some unknown way? I chanced a look at him through my dark hair…

and found myself looking at two dark, intense eyes on one of the most beautiful faces I've ever seen.

I'd been popular today, the shiny new toy, much to my embarrassment.

Edward…

There was something about him.

I can't explain it.

But even if it's the last thing I do, I'll find out what it is - even if it kills me.

R&R. Im going to skip a couple of bits and zoom straight to Bella's birthday in New Moon. And ima do it in style, and what's more, it's gonna work. ;]
