I Do NOT Own:::: The Wonderful Stephanie Meyer Does!
Chapter 2: Another Boring Day
EPOV:
I shook my head fiercely trying to get the disturbing images of Forks High out of it before i had to endure another day of it. I sighed and turned to my clock. It was still way to early for anyone to be up. But this had become a daily routine for me. I forcefully dragged my palm down my face and turned to lie back down on the bed.
I stared at the ceiling not really thinking, just enjoying the quite. when my alarm finally went off i jumped out of bed and nearly ran to the shower.I quickly got ready then attempted to tame the beast in my hair. Yup just as I thought, the beast remained untamed.
I took a look in the mirror happy with what i saw. I knew I was handsome, and if my ego wasn't high enough I had one of my many toys let me know every day. Toys, that's what i considered all my lady friends. I wouldn't really call them friends though considering the only thing they were good for was, well you know a quickie.
I stared at myself in the mirror content with my strong chiseled jaw, bright green eyes, amazing athlete body and especially my copper colored hair. I sighed in contentment and headed down stairs.
I gave up trying to fix my hair and just headed to the kitchen for some breakfast. I nodded towards were Alice was sitting and made my way to my usual seat.
On my way to school I noticed a particularly old truck by the main building. Someone probably saved it from the junk yard I smirked to myself admiring my one true love; my Volvo. I was running early so I decided to take a detour at the nearby gas station.
When i arrived back to school I noticed the metal death trap next to Rosalie's car. I chuckled at the sad comparison, and parked right next to Rosalie.
I headed to class, for another uneventful day. It wasn't until lunch that i remembered about the school latest gossip. Isabella Swan, apparently known as Bella. I had yet to see this new girl. But knowing alice she had already sunk her teeth into her.
As i headed to the cafeteria i confirmed my suspicions. Sitting next to alice was a small girl. Not as small as alice put probably just as slim. Her deep brown hair was curtained around heir face.. I had a sudden urge to run my fingers through that hair, but retained my hand. I noticed the rest of my family begin to settle in their seats while i just stood their awestruck. i noticed she hadn't looked up and everyone except alice who was beaming at her looked at her with curiosity evident in their features. I was the first to speak up.
"So..." I let my statement linger while i studied her reaction. Her head immediately snapped up and i was met with the biggest brownest eyes i had ever seen. I couldn't look away and by the looks of it neither could she. We stared at each other for who knows how long until someone cleared their throat. Of course it was Emmet.
"Umm; I don't want to seem rude but Alice who's this?" He said gesturing towards My Bella. Wow My Bella. I must be loosing it. That's it Forks is slowly driving me towards insanity.
"Guy's I'd like you to all meet Bella," Alice chirped. Bella looked around the table and gave slight wave, then blushed and ducked her head. "She's my new BFF," she sang using texting terms which she knew I hated. I turned and gave her a sharp look only to see her smirking back at me. What was the little pixie up to this time?
I ignored Alice's smirk, turned my attention back to Bella and smiled warmly.
"So Bella, how are you liking Fork's so far?" I asked as warmly as possible. She looked back at me but before she could get caught in my eyes again, she shook her head and answered as polite as she could.
"Fine, thank you" she said quietly with a slight flush on her cheek; then turned back to look at her untouched tray.
I don't know what possessed me but suddenly I was concerned about her. I nearly slapped myself when i heard the next words come out of my mouth, "You should probably eat something, you don't want to get sick your first day here."
Suddenly everyone at the table was quiet, including Bella who was gapping at me with her jaw wide open.
"Bella, honey you really should close your mouth you'll catch flies," Alice smirked in my direction, an unknown thought going through her head. I shuddered at the thought of another scheme going through that spiky little head of hers.
I looked around at everyones shocked faces. What? Was i that insensitive? Just cause I didn't want the new chick feeling bad when she just moved. That shits tough itself, we don' t need starvation to be an issue too. Wait, we? I had nothing to do with her. Hell i didn't even know her and i was including myself in her personal life? Hell if it wasn't for my reputation we wouldn't be having this issue in the first place.
Yes I was know as Thee Edward Cullen. Edward-use-'em-and-leave-'em. I used to be proud of my reputation, but now i found myself worrying about how Bella would react. I almost did a double take. Me The Edward Cullen, captain of most sport teams known to man, overly popular jerk, ladies man; cared about what the new girl Bella Swan thought of him.
I took one last look around the table noticing Rose and Alice smiling madly at me, and Emmet and Jasper openly gawking at my concern before getting up at leaving the cafeteria; but not before mumbling a 'see you later' at Bella and flipping off my family. I stormed out without a glance back, nearly sprinting off to biology to avoid the force that is known as Alice.
I sighed a breath of relief as i turned into the classroom Alice free. I sat down at my usual desk in the back of the class room. Tuning out the teacher until i was positive he was going to start the lesson. I was so caught up in my efforts to ignore the teacher that i didn't notice his slight announcement until i heard murmurs and looked up just to see My Be- I mean Bella walking towards my desk.
She nearly tripped when the grudge, Mike Newton extended his foot to her path, in order to impress his little football friends. Being the captain, i glared at the team mates effectively shutting them out while i extended an arm out to Bella.
As she grabbed it I heard a small gasp followed by a shot of electricity straight up my arm. She blushed and didn't let go until she was stably seated in the lab table, no other than right next to mine.
I couldn't really blame her. My desk was the only other lab unoccupied. Many girls would kill to be in the position she was right now; siting next to Edward Cullen while he openly ogled at her beautiful brown hair. Yet she either seemed to notice or was too embarrassed by the attention to acknowledge me.
Mr. Banner suddenly silence the class which I hadn't noticed get considerably louder since the incident. I ignored them and turned to My Bella. Grrr there I go again with the My. I guess I would just have to deal with it and stop having mental conversations with myself while trying to correct me.
I turned and gave her my best 'I'm definitely flirting with you please acknowledge my presence' smile I could manage and continued with what I was about to say.
"You must be loving all the attention!" I said as sarcastically as I could muster and looked at her expecting an answer. It took her a while to answer but then she finally got her voice back, but I did not expect what came next.
"You bet!" she said equally if not more sarcastic than I had, "Especially from Mike Newton" She gestured towards Newton who was currently making a phone with his thumb and pinky while holding up a torn piece of notebook paper with his number on it.
She looked at me and suddenly her whole frame started shaking with silent waves of laughter. I couldn't help but join in on her little rant. Suddenly she leaned over to me and i froze suddenly very aware of certain parts of my anatomy, i tried to stifle a moan when she place her hand on my thigh.
"Im not very fond of Newton either" she giggled. " How about we tease him a bit?" she then proceeded to rip out a piece of notebook paper and scribble something on it in her scrawny penmanship. She passed it and whispered "Newton" in my ear. I looked down and noticed that the front of the folded paper said Bella with a heart after the 'a'. I immediately felt a pang of jealousy shoot through my stomach. She must have sensed my discomfort because a second later she leaned over and whispered "open it" in a voice that made my pant tighten uncomfortably. I immediately complied and read the short message:
Mike,
NO CHANCE IN HELL!
-Bella
I stared at her in disbelief. My jaw must have been hanging open because next thing I know her small delicate hand is pushing my jaw up. I smiled and turned to Newton.
I nudged his shoulder then gestures towards Bella. I kept my eyes on him desperately waiting to see his reaction. He smiled then grimaced after he read the letter. He turned back to Bella a look of disbelief on his face. Bella blushed an I placed an arm around her shoulder gesturing for her to play along. She stiffened but then leaned into my shoulder. Mike stared at us mouth wide open and a look of outrage until Bella spoke up.
"Mike, you really should close your mouth, don't want to catch flies now do you?" she coated her voice with such sincerity that Mike had no choice but to comply. He turned around mumbling to himself what sounded like 'stupid Cullen' I grinned then turned to Bella who was beaming at my arm around her shoulders.
She had such a beautiful smile. Her plump lips looked so edible and I found myself thinking about what it would be like to kiss them. I shook my head but left my arm were it was enjoying the feel of her warm slim shoulder and leaned back on the chair watching Bella copy me and lean closer into me.
Out of the corner of my eye I saw Mike glaring at me, then remembered that that was all this was a show for that annoying Newton kid. I sighed and decided to enjoy the moment. I leaned over to Bella and whispered in her ear.
"Bella," just then the bell rang and I watched her put her stuff away. As soon as she was done i grabbed her arm an led her out of the classroom.
OOOOOHHH!! What's Edward up to Now???
Next Chapter Coming Soon!
