Chapter Three

Biology ended very slowly. I got up out of my seat only to get frightened by my sisters.

"Don't do that! I didn't even notice you standing there!" I said to them.

"Sorry, Bells, but what were you thinking? You used your powers! The plant grew and looks more healthy. Someone was bound to notice!" Rose exclaimed in a whisper.

"Actually, no one noticed at all." Edward said behind me.

"How would you know?" Rose said giving him a glare.

"Easy, I can read thoughts." He replied. I tensed. "Well, everyone's but Bella's."

I begun to walk out.

"Hey, we're not finished talking missy!" Alice followed with Rose and Edward following.

"Well, I am. It was an accident. I had a lot on my mind and it relieved a little stress." I said while we were on our way to gym.

"Why are you stressed? Is it the Vampire?" Rose said, Glaring at Edward.

"No, and stop glaring at him. He only hunts animals Rose. He won't hurt us." I said.

"How do you know, He could be lying." Rose said.

"Look at his eyes. That's not normal for a vampire. And besides, I don't know why but, I trust him." I replied.

Edward's eyes lit up and looked down at me happily.

"Oh no…" Alice said.

"What is it?" Rose asked.

"Nothing… we have to go… or we'll be late." She said grabbing Rose's hand and leaving.

I watched after them and then looked at Edward, who was looking at me with a smile.

"What?" I asked.

"I'm just smiling at what Alice I thinking." He replied before putting his hand on my lower back and leading me to the gymnasium.

"About that… why didn't you tell me before?" I asked.

"Because it didn't come up."

"Well do you think something's wrong with me?"

"No, nothing's wrong with you. Maybe it's just some kind of self defence thing. I don't know."

"I hope you're right. I have enough on my hands. I don't need something being wrong with my brain!" We walked into the gym and everyone stared at us. Most of the girls glared at me. I didn't know why.

I heard Edward growl, too low for regular humans to hear.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"You heard that?" He asked.

"Yeah, I have better senses, they're just not as distinct as yours." I replied looking at him.

"Well, it was nothing." He said.

"Didn't sound like nothing." I replied.

"Okay Class, take a seat. Today we're having health." The coach told us. I sighed. We're in high school and are still having health classes with the gym teacher.

I took a seat and Edward sat next to me.

"It's nothing to worry about." He whispered in my ear. Sending a shiver down my spine.

"Fine." I said as the coach began to talk about things I've known since I was twelve. I sighed and began to fiddle with my earth pendant that I had gotten when I was a baby.

"What's that?" Edward asked in a whisper.

"Well, my sisters and I got pendants when we were younger, which told us which kind of fairy we were. No one else knew what they were, only fairies. This is mine." I said holding up my green pendant that had what looked like brass vines circling it.

"So this symbolizes Earth?" He asked.

"Yeah." I said still holding it up.

"It's different." He observed. "A good different." He smiled.

"I like good different." I replied with a smile.

"I do too." He replied. We smiled at each other before turning back to the coach.
