Chapter 8
Bella regretted yelling at Cassie. She never knew what happened to Cassie's dad. She hadn't even taken the time to ask. Bella suddenly realized that the marriage must have been hard on her. She seemed to have accepted Charlie, but now Bella knew how difficult that must have been for her. Bella considered going to apologize, but Edward would be there at any moment, and she wouldn't miss that.
"Hello." He appeared suddenly appeared by the window. His glorious beauty left her breathless.
"Hi." She choked out. His perfect brows furrowed.
"What's wrong?" He asked.
"Nothing." Bella shook her head.
"Your lying hasn't improved." Edward smiled crookedly at her. Bella collapsed on her bed.
"You don't want to hear it." She told him. He was sitting laying next to her in a flash.
"Trust me," He nudged her neck, "I do."
"Cassie's mad at me." Bella admitted.
"I wanted to ask you about her." Edward said. "How are you taking Charlie's marriage? Are they nice to you?"
"Yeah, they're really nice. Charlie deserves this." Bella said. "He'll get a daughter when I can't see him anymore." Edward grimaced.
"So what do you think of Cassie and Adel?" Bella asked.
"They both don't like Alice or myself. I think the reason is that they have very strong instincts. They, like most humans, naturally want to avoid us."
"What were they thinking?" Bella asked him.
"Adel was trying to figure out why you would invite us in the house, let alone talk to us."
"That's mean!" Bella exclaimed quietly, because her family was sleeping nearby. "What else?"
"Cassie was thinking about how strange we were."Edward chuckled. "They are very observant. They noticed our eyes. They had the strangest color eyes as well. I've never seen violet irises." He mused. Bella thought about Cassie's eyes.
"I thought they were dark blue." Bella said. Edward shook his head.
"They were defiantly violet. It must be your human sight. You'd probably be able to see it in the sun." Edward informed her. "Speaking of Cassie, where is she?" He asked. Bella rolled her eyes.
"Next door." She told him. Edward shook his head.
"No she's not. There are only three humans in this house." He said.
"Well, can you hear her?" Bella asked. Edward was silent for a moment then shook his head. "Where are you going?" He asked her as she got up.
"To go find her. She has a tendency to disappear into the woods for hours." Edward shook his head.
"I'll find her, you stay." And he was gone. Bella's chest began to hurt again. A few minutes later, Edward returned, his hair windblown.
"No trail. But she's back." He told her. "There is something strange about her, but it doesn't matter now. Go to sleep, love." He told her.
And that's the end of New Moon. Sorry guys, no dramatic scenes, but they're coming! I know it was short but not much happened in New Moon. Plus I only used the end of it and I improvised what would happen if Bella never jumped off that cliff.
Alright. I'm writing Eclipse now. Just thought I'd let you guys know something.
This story has been in my head for over a year now and I pretty much have it all mapped out. I originally wrote it for myself because I needed to get it out of my head and onto a page. Posting it was just to see what others think about Cassie. Do you like her? Do you hate her? Does she deserve love?
I hope you already figured out who the evil person was in the Prologue, because I know you guys are smart!
