This chapter is dedicated to shazmi. You're review was the NICEST review ever!!!
Thanks so much for listening to my threats!!!
Your response was overwhelming, and beat what I ordered you to do.
So, as my way of saying thanks I'm not going to DEMAND you to review or anything, although if you want to your more than welcome. That means if I don't even get one review I'll still post. But it doesn't mean I'm telling you not to review.
Any who, enjoy, and at the end I've got a few notices I have to put forth.
I scrunched my nose up and crawled over to his awkward seating position. I always knew his long legs would have some sort of disadvantage one day. I pressed one hand hard into his shoulders and the other hard at his thigh.
"Ow." He winced.
"Oops." I said nastily.
Then I muddled around with his legs, contorting them in every way pain could be foreseeable. In all the turmoil, I put my hand down hard in a delicate area and he moaned aloud in pain.
"Swan! I said help! Not destroy his future children!" Emmett barked. "Detention!"
However the three of us knew Edward wouldn't be breeding anymore. With me that is. Most definitely not Beth.
"Toughen up you pussy." I hissed at Edward, sublimely, taking my anger out at him.
"I wouldn't say sublimely, more like obviously." He groaned referring to my thoughts. I growled and immediately returned back to my song.
"You're welcome to stop listening anytime now." I hissed.
"I'd never be able to shut you out, Bella you should know that by now. You're much too precious for me to throw aside." He whispered, shaking off the absurd amount of pain he'd just felt.
"You threw me aside for Beth." I whispered to him, quickly and hushed so humans ears could not hear.
"It's not me Bella. I love you so much. Why can't you see that?" He responded in vampire tone.
"Of course it's you! I saw you kiss her, I saw you tell me you wanted a divorce, I felt you break my heart."
"No, no!" He pleaded. "I don't remember any of that." He said seriously, locking eyes with me. I glanced over to Emmett, who was clearly engaged in our conversation. His head was titled to the side, and his nose was scrunched up, pressing to hear more.
I raised my eyebrows at him, and he bit his lip when he saw me catch him eavesdropping.
I turned my attention back to Edward and looked at him intently. He didn't seem to be lying. So I relied on my instinct and breathed the words I knew I couldn't take back once I uttered them.
"I believe you." I said through tears, and flung my arms around him as if I were about to lose him all over again.
"I love you Bella, and I only ask for one thing from you. Help me." He said sincerely.
"Of course Edward." I said and pressed my lips to his, longingly and sweetly.
When I withdrew, I turned to steal a glance at Emmett, who had his tongue sticking out like a five year olds who'd been presented with a platter of peas. Edward and I both laughed.
"Beth's surname is Sutherland; I think she could be related to Victoria." I said, getting back to business.
"That's impossible; a female vampire can't have children." He said puzzled. "Besides, she's dead now."
"Well she's something! She sparkled, and she smells like blood. Half- vampire perhaps?" I said baffled.
"I don't know, Bella. But what I do know is that we have to get out of here. I can't run in to her again! We can't risk me having another episode." He said and began to stand up.
"Emmett, get them to stop thinking that infernal song! I can't hear myself think!" Edward hissed at him quietly.
"Alright class, now go to your happy place." Emmett said gruffly. I swear one student was quietly snoring.
I stood up to follow Edward's lead when I paused to smile. A boy was grinning like crazy.
"Someone's found there happy place." I whispered to Edward.
Edward stopped for a moment to listen to his thoughts. The next thing I knew Edward's fist was raised as if he were about to hit the boy, not taking it easy this time. I caught his fist before he could bring it down, and twisted his wrist to demonstrate my sincerity.
"Bella that hurt!" He said in vampire whisper.
"You're not abusing anymore humans! Follow your own advice." I glared at him.
"What advice?" He said puzzled.
"This morning, in the front office, 'leave the humans alone.'" I said matter-of-factly. He just shrugged and continued to creep out the auditorium.
"So tell me Bella, are you really that mad at you were able to make me wince?" He asked as soon as we exited the auditorium, referring to the jewel crunching and wrist twisting.
"Guess so." I merely shrugged, hoping to change the subject quickly before I had to admit to drinking human blood. He leaned forward to present me with a sorry kiss, but a familiar, female voice interrupted.
"Bella! There you are!" Sam called as she jogged out of the auditorium. "Oh, I see your… friend, has gotten over that Beth chick. Or you're trying out that anti-commitment thing. I suggest you try to go with anti commitment; much more fun." She babbled, batting her eyelashes.
"We're fine Sam. No anti-commitment for us. Everything was just a misunderstanding." I said taking Edward's hand.
"Well that's a shame… I mean great!" She said covering up her disappointment. "That kind of means your vengeance was all for nothing! She shrugged, turning to leave.
"Vengeance? What's she talking about?" Edward asked confused.
"Don't worry." I said quickly. But Sam, being the blabber mouth she is, began speaking again.
"You know… how you got it on…with my senior friend, David. A little payback for your make out session with Beth earlier today, Edward." She winked at Edward. "Props for Bella though, you didn't initially come across as the evil type." She smile, and clapped me on the back. Obviously she thought she was doing me a favor, but in reality she was digging me deeper into a hole.
"You got it on with a senior?" Edward said slowly, as if he were testing the words.
"No, you don't understand, that's only what it seemed like. We were just talking." I explained.
"Yeah, from on top of each other." Sam blurted.
"No!" I cried.
"This is unbelievable!" He said, baffled.
"Exactly, unbelievable." I nodded enthusiastically.
"I need a moment." Edward said softly, dazed. He turned to walk down the hall away from me. Sam's eyes widened.
"Oh flaming shiatsus! I've made things worse!" She cried and ran back to the locker rooms to slip into her dress again. I didn't mind having to stay in the uniform for all it was worth. But right now clothes were the last thing on my mind.
"Edward! Please you don't understand!" I shouted, running after him, human speed. When I was a breath's space behind him, I caught his shoulder but he spun quickly to face me.
"I think I was right about those divorce papers." He said monotonously, and coldly.
"What?" I asked repulsed and looked into his eyes.
His green eyes.
A little blonde emerged from a corner to face us both. She stood confidently and proud, unlike the version I'd encountered so many times this morning.
"Eddie, I've been looking everywhere for you."
A/N: Okay three major things.
Keep in mind when Edward and
Bella were talking they were in a gym full of people, with their
eyes closed, meditating. But because Bella and Ed are vampires, they
can talk really low and no one can hear them. So that's how they
were communicating without everyone going WTF are they on about.
You're going to hate me
for this but there is a more than likely chance I won't be posting
anytime soon. It's major assignment time and they've thrown like
eight of them at once at us, AND in a few weeks we have trial School
Certificate. Then a month or so after that it's the real School
Certificate. For those of you not from Oz, the School Certificate is
the second highest exam they force you to do. So that will be BIG
study time.
Remember, I can get very side tracked, so I very
well may end up posting soon, just depends on how well I manage my
time.
CROSS YOUR FINGERS FOR ME! On Wednesday I have my final Piano theory exam. Because I just needed one more exam to study for (Sarcasm btw).
