Helo! It's the third chapter! Yey! I wrote it today... inspired by all the readers I had for this story.
Dusk and Dawn: Chapter 3
Agitated and Disgusted
The train's loud roar stopped me from my distant daydream. Rosalie had just finished grooming herself and stood up, gathering her luggage.
"We're here, Bella", she perturbed me from having my head in the clouds.
I tucked my book and i-Pod into my bag and swung it over my shoulder, rolled my suitcase from the corner and put my toothbrush back inside.
Alice was already zipping her suitcase closed. The speaker switched on: We have arrived at our destination. Please exit with the two doors for each train section.
Alice looked out the window and gesturing for me to take a look with her.
The camp had a short wooden fence. And several cabins were built far across the left and right side of the camp. In between the great distance space between the cabins was a larger structure, serving as the center of the camp. I caught a glimpse of a swimming pool at the far end of the camp territory. It seemed like paradise.
Several people raced outside, heading to the camp. They formed a line leading to the large, centered structure. Alice rushed over to Rosalie and me when we finally found our way out of the train, handing us our keys to our cabin.
Cabin fifteen, on the left side of the grouped camp.
Three beds were spread with clean, white bed sheets and with two pillows for each of the beds. The windows were of large glass, covered with blinds. Three desks had two outlets for wires and there was a large, round rug that lay in the middle of the cabin. A small sofa was on top of the rag, next to a coffee table.
"This cabin is great", Alice awed, "Huge, too." She grabbed her bags into the cabin next to me. Rosalie sat on the bed in the middle, making herself comfortable.
"I guess that's your bed, Rose", Alice chuckled.
"Do you guys mind?" she smiled hopefully.
"It's fine", I moved to the bed in the right side of the room.
"The bathroom's great, too", I heard Alice call from the bathroom, making Rosalie roll her eyes and sigh heavily. "There's one closet for each of us."
The cabin was great.
"Bella?" Alice came out of the bathroom and unpacked her camera. "Will you join me?" she held up her camera.
"Sure" I sat up from the foot of my bed and followed her out the door.
"Alice, Bella", Jasper called with jolt.
"Jasper", Alice greeted him with her bright voice. "Edward", she greeted Edward, who was right behind Jasper. "Where's Emmett?"
"He plans on checking the facilities", Edward replied, in a better mood than usual.
"Where are you headed?" Jasper turned to Alice.
Alice smiled and held up her camera. Edward's expression was uncannily still.
"We'll join you", Jasper glanced over at Edward who nodded. "What cabin are you guys in?"
"Cabin fifteen", I replied, not wanting to keep myself silent. As we walked, I caught a glimpse of Edward. He walked with his attention on the ground, in deep thought, his head began to turn to me; I quickly turned my attention away, before making any eye-contact with him.
I looked in front of me; Alice was talking to Jasper, exchanging subjects with him. Her outgoing personality must attract many people. I turned my attention away from Edward, who was looking around—before he could turn his eyes to me again.
There was a slight feeling of butterflies fluttering in my stomach.
"Why do you keep doing that?" Edward spoke in a harsh tone.
"What do you mean?" I replied; he finally spoke to me again.
"Do you always have to see what I'm doing?" He sounded infuriated.
"You're in melancholy all the time." I replied.
"Why should it matter to you?" He glared. I looked away.
His obstinate behavior irritated me as well.
"Edward", Alice stopped her conversation with Jasper. "What's your problem?" she asked with concern.
"Nothing." He grimaced, turning his head away.
Breakfast will be served in the cafeteria in ten minutes. We've already reached the swimming pool, which had a diving board as well.
"We should head to the cafeteria", Alice suggested after hearing the announcement.
"Over here", Rosalie called from a table with Emmett.
"Edward", Jasper smiled as Edward took a seat. Jasper pointed his finger to Lauren, standing a few tables away from ours. "She's had her eye on you ever since we came in here."
Edward glanced over to her direction, surprisingly, I did, too. Lauren batted her eyelashes and waved with her fingers at Edward flirtatiously—repulsive.
I looked at Edward at the corner of my eye, his expression phlegmatic. I turned my head back to my tray of food and Edward looked straight at his.
"What's her name, Bella?" Alice asked.
"Lauren Mallory", I replied dolefully.
"You go to school together?" Rosalie asked.
"Unfortunately, yes. And she's the only one else who's here from my school." Did it have to be her; it could have been Mike Newton or Tyler Crowley. The idea of knowing Lauren as the only person from my school is excruciating, not to mention, unbearable.
Disgust filled my mind, but all I have to do is to stay away from her.
Alice and Rosalie walked with me after breakfast to the cabin, the fresh countryside air filled my lungs and blew through my hair. Other teenagers, perhaps as appreciative, were skateboarding; others had found a spot to play badminton in.
The camp chief, stood with one of the teenagers, after catching him trying to skateboard on the wooden fence, pointing out, that he could have been injured with some poisoned ivy lying outside the fenced areas.
"Swan." I heard Lauren's unbearably high pitched voice call my name. I turned towards her.
"Yes?" I asked. She gestured for me to walk closer; I walked a few steps.
"You know Edward?" She asked.
"And you know him, too?" I replied.
"Rumors", she flipped her hair. "It was probably love at first sight."
"Probably."
"Introduce him to me. And it's not an option, Swan."
"Why won't you do it yourself? I mean, who better to describe you other than yourself?" She seemed to be please with the 'compliment' I gave her.
"Good suggestion." I walked away before she could say to me another word. Alice giggled with one hand over her mouth and Rosalie just smiled amusingly. Why should I introduce her to Edward?
Bella starts to have strange feelings!
Review!!! (I need a burst of inspiration! -hehe)
