New Face

JPOV

My adopted siblings and niece all looked simultaneously at the being that had caught my attention. He stood, leaning against the back wall, arms folded, musing and glancing from person to person, as if weighing up his choices for food. Edward was the one to break the silent stares. "He's a vegetarian too."

We weren't prepared for that. "WHAT! HOW?!" Reneseme was so intrigued, Rose was passive, Emmett chuckled, Edward Pondered, his emotions a mix of worried and thoughtful, Bella looked as excited as her daughter, I stared, both worried for our safety and nervous, this Immortal looked familiar. Alice was staring blankly, her eyes glazed over. I clasped her hand. "Alice?" I whispered. "What do you see?" She snapped back to reality, "I saw…You Jaz"

We all sat staring, Edward's eyes were wide and animated, he knew something I didn't but I knew better then to try and get things from Alice that she wasn't willing to share openly. Clearly this new Immortal was the key, I just needed to know how and why.

He stood at 6'3, honey blonde hair almost exactly like Jasper's but his was shorter, swept to the left, a scar over his right eye, only visible to a Vampire came curved like a crescent moon from the tip of his nose down and round to his temple. He wore faded blue jeans, shades and a black t-shirt that just fit him, he was muscular and toned and he leaned back with a carelessness like a man with nothing to lose and nothing to gain, just striding the edge of reality.

Then. He looked up.

His eyes met all of our simultaneously and a sly smile edged through his lips, his gleaming white teeth suddenly flashed as he moved from leaning to striding, away from us and out of the cafeteria. We all wondered who this man was, thoughts creamed through my families minds and then it hit me, I had been so fixated on Reneseme and Bella throughout my day that I hadn't really noticed the buzz around the other students thoughts, a new arrival…and I didn't mean us, sure we were on the radar, a family so perfect that Zeus must have fashioned us from the marble of Mount Olympus but even more then the thoughts of us were the thoughts of this man, looking as if part of our group but altogether separate. The girls were swooning, the guys were judging, the geeks were praying not to be harmed and the goth kids…well they were bing gothic.

Still this man was more then we had ever been at this school and for some unknown reason I was jealous.
