Chapter 3

Company

The lunch bell rang, and Edward, Jacob, and I walked off to chemistry. Mrs. Harper was a cute old lady. She looked like she should have retired by now. Her long grey hair was in a bun on top of her head, and she had an inviting smile. She looked happy to teach. This made me smile, I felt like I was part of her life, her smile made me fell welcome.

"Hello, kids." Mrs. Harper greeted. "I am Mrs. Harper. Would you two lovely young ones like to sit next to eachother?"

"But, um......Mrs. Harper. There are three of us here." Edward said with a slight giggle.

Mrs. Harper giggled as well. "Oh my. I didn't notice that tall one in the back there. Well, you guys can decide who can sit next to eachother." She said and then walked off to her desk.

I was surprised because she didn't seem to notice how different we looked toward's the other students. Edward had said that a couple of students were seemed curious about us. But there assumptions were beyond wrong.

I noticed that Abigail was in our class and she didn't have a partner. I unlocked my shield from myself and though towards Edward; Edward, he nodded to show that he was listening, you should tell Jacob about Abigail. She doesn't have a partner and I'm sure she'll be happy if Jake sits with her.

He nodded once again and then looked up at Jacob.

"Hey Jake. See that girl over there. She is sitting by herself. And she like's you. You shoud go sit with her." Edward grinned and then hit him on the shoulder for him to go over there. "Her name is Abigail and she loves supernatural characters. You two will be perfect for eachother. Oh ya! And best of all she has a french accent."

Jacob and Edward both smiled and I guess it had to be about a guy thing. I elbowed Edward in the ribs, he looked down at me and whispered in my ear. "You know no one will ever be better than you. I love you know matter who or what enter's my world."

"Okay! I love you too know matter who or what enter's my world. Maybe exceptions for Mario Lopez!" I laughed loudly and that brought the attention of the class to me.

I walked to mine and Edward's table and he took my hand under our table while Mrs. Harper talked to our class about chemical reactions.

"You know if Alyssa Milano came into my life, you know we'd also have to make exceptions as well." Edward said at hyper speed with that grin.

I glanced over at Jacob and Abigail, and they seemed really happy. It seems that everyone is noticing my glance because Jacob then looked in my direction and winked. He also gave me a thumbs up. I felt like a matchmaker, even though Edward was the one that set them up together.

"Bella, Jacob is bringing Abigail over tonight, and Renesme is going out to supper with Richard at Mexican Plaza. She is planning to ask you, so say yes." Edward said while kissing me on the cheek.

I giggled, a little too loud and I disrupted Mrs. Harper's lecture.

"Excuse me. Ms. Hale." Uh oh. Mrs. Harper sounded mad. "Would you like to share with us about what is so funny."

Edward snorted. I squeezed his hand hard. "Um no. It's well, just I thought of a funny joke about chemistry." I stuttered.

Edward help me here, I yelled in my head, this is you're fault you know.

He nodded and said, "well, I just told Bella a funny chemistry joke. I suspect you want to hear it." She nodded. "Okay, What is the dieter's element? Nobelium."

Only Mrs. Harper laughed. The class just sat there probably thinking that Edward has a dry sense of humour.

"That's exactly right. Your welcome for helping you out there." Edward whispered.

"Oh crap! I forgot my shield was off. Oh and um thankyou. But couldn't you think of a better reason?" I asked trying to be funny.

"Hey, at least the teacher forgot about what she was laughing at." Edward grinned and then turned around and focused on our lesson.

The teacher finally finished her lecture on chemical reactions and let us have five minutes of social time.

I decided to walk over to where Jacob and Abigail sat. I really wanted to meet her.

"Hey, Bells. What were you really laughing at?" Jacob asked.

"Nothing. Well, Edward kissed me and it made me giggle." I expained myself and I noticed Abigail laughing.

"Thats so sweet. Hi Bella, I am Abigail Granner. I just moved here last year from Paris." She said. Her voice was so soothing. She sounded so nice. She was perfect for Jacob.

"Oh hi! Um......my family and I just moved here from Forks, Washington. My dad Carlisle adopted all of us, since him and his wife couldn't concieve."

"That is what Jacob here told me." She looked in Jacob's direction and winked. She grabbed his hand, I suspected for the first time today and her mouth dropped. "Your hand. It's so warm."

"Oh! Um! I have a skin condition, where um... I um... my skin is always warm." Jacob said not knowing how to reply.

"Wow! You are so wonderful. I always desired for a man like you." Abigail said while blushing. Gez. She was getting more and more like me. First, she had big brown eyes, long dark brown hair, and she blushed easily. Only one more thing could make her exactly like me. Clumsiness.

"You seem to like him." I stated. "That is so nice because Jacob was just saying that he was hoping for a girlfriend in our new school."

Jacob glared at me and then laughed. "You can never be quiet can you Bells?"

"Basically no." We all giggled at my answer and then Edward joined us.

He looked worried and in a rush. "Jacob, Bella! We have to go!"

"Okay! Youguys go ahead. I just have to get Abi's number."

"Jaocb. I mean now." Edward roared.

"Here Jacob. This is my cell. Call me later. It seems that you're brother is in a rush. You better go." Abi said glaring hard, cold eyes toward Edward.

"Thank you, Abi. Lets go." Edward said and then took my hand and led us out of the room.

"Edward Cullen! Where are you guys going?" Mrs. Harper asked but we were already outside in the parking lot by the time she reacted.

In the parking lot Rosalie, Emmett, Jasper, Alice, and Renesme were sitting in Rose's car.

I then knew something happened. But what?
