A.N. Omg, I must be the most unreliable person ever. It's been like 3 months since I last updated, after saying I'd try and update every 2 weeks or so. I had to read through my whole story so far just to remember everything, and I also found quite a few mistakes, but I'm way too lazy to go back and fix them up since there's not too many. Hahaha and I realised I called her cat Jasper, forgot all about that. And just to clear anything up, the people she sees around from Twilight look kind of like a cross between the movie and what they're described as in the book. Like in the book Angela has light brown hair, and in the movie it's dark, so imagine her as Christian Serartos with light brown hair, if that makes any sense. This way they're familiar and different at the same time.
OOOOHHHH AND WHAT DID YOU THINK OF THE NEW MOON TRAILER?? I WAS SOOOO EXCITED, TOOK ABOUT AN HOUR TO START BREATHING PROPERLY AGAIN. Naww and Kristen was so shy on the MTV awards, felt so sorry for her, but it was pretty funny when she dropped her award.
Hope you like the chapter and please review :)
CHAPTER 5 – Adonis
---
At school, I saw a girl with the same black hair from Port Angeles, this time she turned around.
"Alice?" I whispered.
The short girl's pixie like features stared back at me intensely, her dark gold eyes never blinking. She seemed confused but curious. Could it really be her? It had to be. She was only 50 feet away. Alice, Alice Cullen. The girl, well vampire, I've dreamt about having as a best friend and going on mad shopping sprees with, she was really there.
I thought about saying something, but maybe it wasn't quite the right time, and I had no idea what to say anyway. "Oh hi I'm Bella, hopefully I'm going to date your brother, and you're going to be my best friend, oh yeah, and you look rather thirsty, maybe you better go hunting, I recommend Elk around this time of year". I couldn't see that going down too well.
Surprisingly, we went unnoticed by the array of students passing us in the hall. It was a few minutes until the bell rung overhead, signalling us to head to class. With one last curious glance, Alice spun around and headed towards her next class.
I was almost in shock, she really did exist. Fighting back the urge to run after her, I twisted around, half tripping in the process, and opened my beige coloured locker. Glancing at my timetable I noticed my next lesson.
Biology. With Edward... hopefully. I still had my doubts, I'd learnt in the past not to get my hopes up about anything, because nothing works out the way I want it to.
But I wasn't here, miles away from home, and I mean miles, to dwell in my past. I was here to find my future, which hopefully involved the Cullens.
I drew in a deep breath before yanking out my books and quickly advancing towards biology.
Mr. Banner greeted me as I entered the room and took my usual seat. I was alone; Edward was probably just running late. Mike gave me a boyish grin as I scanned the room, finding a few familiar faces. I flicked absentmindedly through the pages of my textbook, hoping to somehow pass the time. Five minutes past and I become even more nervous. What if he really didn't exist? But how could that be, if Alice, Mike, Jess, Angela and even Chief Swan existed, how could he not?
Before I could think of more questions to ask myself about his existence, a tall figure strode into the room, pretty much answering all my questions.
Wow, I think Stephanie Meyer underestimated things, Adonis just didn't cover it. He greeted Mr. Banner before noticing me at his table. He looked, but passed me off casually as he headed down the aisle. He had probably read everything on people's minds about the "new girl" already.
The amount of teenage girls who would kill to be in my position right now. At least would've, before Twilight was no longer in existence.
However the moment he was in a few feet of me I saw his stance change, turning rigid as he halted. His fists tightened as his beautiful golden eyes met mine, filled with anger and disgust. Obviously my delicious scent had hit him hard. He continued to stare at me, only making my blush deepen.
I tilted my head down; tying to look embarrassed when really just didn't want to make his pain worse than it already was. I risked a glance at him, but as soon as I lifted my head he started walking away, quickening his pace with every step. Mr. Banner watched him speed at the door and shot me a questioning look.
I must have done something wrong, something Bella didn't. My book was covered in ink due to the doodling I did in the next two lessons, trying to get my mind off Edwards's abrupt departure. But it didn't work; I kept picturing his furious eyes before he stormed out of the room. Didn't my other classmates think it was weird? Nobody had said a word to me, or even looked in my direction, of course Mike being the exception. He kept sneaking a look every time he turned a page in his empty notebook.
The bell rung and I hopped off my seat and headed towards the door, and of course Mike got there before I did.
"Hey, Bella, do you know Cullen?" Mike asked, looking apologetic.
"No" I responded in defence, probably a little too quickly.
"I've never seen him act like that before, one minute he was fine, the next thing he was practically fleeing the room"
"Yeah, maybe he was just surprised by me sitting at his table", I tried making up a flimsy excuse; I knew the real reason why he fled the room.
"Hmm, maybe, weird guy that one, really weird. I know if I saw you sitting at my bench I wouldn't flee the room"
Great, now Mike was cracking onto me.
I gave him a tiny friendly smile before escaping down the hall towards calculus.
The next thirty minutes past in a blur. Unlike Bella, I didn't have to patience for anything mathematical.
"Bella, do you get any of this?" Jessica asked, breaking my trance.
"Sorry, I don't Jess, this isn't really my thing"
"That's ok, I'll ask Eric"
She changed her position to face Eric, leaving me alone to ponder. I couldn't help but think of more questions like what if Edward didn't come back and it was my fault? Or what if Alice didn't like me as much because I did like shopping and makeovers? But really that made no sense since she always begged Bella to go shopping and play Barbies.
I placed my textbooks back into my locker after the lesson and headed toward the cafeteria. Maybe I could see if anyone else, apart from Mike, saw Edward race out of biology.
Thankfully nobody else had seemed to take much notice of Edwards's departure. I felt pity for Edward; I knew what my scent had done to him and the pain it put him in. I didn't want it to give everyone more reasons to think he was odd.
The cafeteria doors opened and finally the people I automatically took to be the Cullen's came in, all but one.
"Hey, Angela, is that the family you were talking about yesterday, the Cullen's?" I asked. Of course it was the Cullen's, no humans could look that gorgeous. However I still had to blend in, like I had no idea whatsoever that I knew their secret.
"Yeah, it is, see the blonde girl?"
"That's Rosalie, her and the blonde boy, Jasper, are twins" Jessica interrupted.
"Rosalie's with the big dark haired guy, Emmett. The weird black haired girl behind them is Alice, she's with the blonde guy Jasper. And I don't know where Edward is, usually they're all together", I honestly wanted to slap Jessica for calling Alice weird, but remembering that the real Bella would never do something like that, I restrained myself.
"Emmett, Alice and Edward are siblings too" Angela added.
The six of them walked gracefully over to their table and took their seats, leaving the one on the right empty. Edward must've gone home or hunting, or probably up to the Denali's in Alaska, in which case he might return for a while. I hope he did come back to Forks quickly, but chances are he'd be there for as long as he was in the book.
I kept an eye on their table, trying not to be noticeable, especially to Jessica. By the looks of it Alice was keeping an eye on me too. She was probably curious as to why I knew her name earlier; no doubt she would have heard me whisper it.
The rest of my school day was spent thinking about how much I wanted to be a vampire, and more importantly a Cullen. They had everything, and I was insanely jealous. It was my jealousy of Bella that made me make that wish, and hopefully it wasn't a mistake.
English finished and I headed out to the parking lot.
Alice was waiting by my rental car.
Now off you go and hit that review button :)
