I still don't own Twilight. Maybe I should ask Ms. Meyer for those rights...haha.
BTW Gaelic is a great language. Everyone should learn it.
Alice's POV
In a vision I saw Edward murderously glare at what seemed to be nothing as he said "I'll walk you to your truck." They walked in silence until she reached that awful old truck of hers. He followed her home before deciding to find me.
"Oh, crap!" I said, "Jazz, you have got to hide me. He's coming. He's COMING" I internally smirked.
Jasper tensed and turned to look at me. I was dry sobbing by now. I truly was an actress when I needed to be. Suddenly another vision flooded my mind. It was Mike, Eric, and Tyler attempting to ask Bella to the girl's choice boys...that totally defeats the purpose. I saw Edward tense up. He was jealous each time those boys so much as looked at Bella. I almost snickered out loud. Then I realized I had my husband in the room. I still needed to keep up the charade. I let the dread and fear to radiate from me. I felt bad deceiving my wonderful husband, but I had to. This whole confrontation would be ruined if I did not. I would apologize later.
Edward was about a mile away now. Time to start the scene. "Carlisle, Esme! Please help me." I cried. Then I added, "He is mad at me. I spoke to Bella, I just wanted to be her friend." This dry sobbing thing was working well. "Edward is being ridiculous, he'll kill me!" Jasper stiffened incredibly. I love that man so much. This was fun. I had to keep the future from Edward. I had to! He would run away if I didn't. Then I would never be friends with Bella. I would never be able to play Bella Barbie. I would never get to drag her to the Mall. I would never be able to be her best friend. I would never be able to plan her perfect wedding.
No, Edward could not know. I would not lose my best friend before we became best friends!. Never!
Oh, he was close now. "Carlisle, please stay. Edward will be here in about ten seconds and he is intent on ripping me to pieces! Again! I promise, if you help Jazz calm him down, that I will explain everything."
Carlisle nodded and smiled warily, telling me he would stay and sort this out. Esme shook her head in disbelief, but she held onto her husband's hand. This was going to be interesting. "I told you that was a bad idea, Alice." Jasper murmured into be ear. I nodded. I did not actually agree. He did warn me though.
Edward was two seconds from coming through the door. I half way hid myself behind Jasper and threw out emotions of immense fear. That should work for now. I felt Jazz trying to relieve my fear, but that was only rewarded with more fear. Did Jasper not know that I could control my emotions quite well?
Edward entered and the whole room tensed, perfect.
"Alright, Edward, Esme and I are going to listen to your side of the story-we already know Alice's- and you are going to be calm. Then we will make a decision. Either Alice needs to apologize or you do. Jasper?" Carlisle announced.
Jasper looked confused. I started to shake uncontrollably for effect. Then I sang "America the Beautiful" in Tokin's Elfish language in my mind. I couldn't let my precious visions to be shared. I could feel him probing my mind, trying to break the song barriers. Edward raised an eyebrow. "He's perfectly serene. Calm and stable. I'll monitor it though." Jasper answered.
"One question, before I begin." He waited for a moment. Carlisle and Jasper nodded in unison. "Alice?" I quivered slightly.
"Yes, Edward?" I said lightly. I decided to sing "Amazing Grace" in Gaelic. One of the nicer northern languages.
"Why on earth did you tell Mrs. Cope that Esme needed me right away and allow her to think I was in trouble?" I smirked mentally, trying not to disrupt my song. He sounded so hurt and confused by that.
I could not help it anymore, I laughed. "Because it sounded better then the truth at the moment. It also sounded convincing enough."
"It sounded extremely serious!" Edward raged. Ha! Mrs. Cope was beyond dumbfounded. It would take her two days before she even thought about talking.
"I will think up an excuse for tomorrow. One that will put you back on your pedestal and make sense why you were pulled out. Okay?" The drama King. I rolled my eyes. He always over reacted. I decided to play with him. Ha! This is what he gets for messing with Alice Cullen! I changed my song to a bugle charge. I could see him losing his resolve on being calm quickly.
"Alice, it wasn't very nice to allow Mrs. Cope to think poorly of Edward." Esme scolded me.
"Sorry mom" I muttered, shamefaced. Then another vision started. I almost squealed. My vision stared my two favorite people-besides my husband-Edward and Bella! I quickly began translating the first thing I could think of into Ancient Greek. It happened to be one of the Witches' scene in Macbeth. Ha! He would be cracking up if he wasn't being such a stubborn jerk!
I barely paid any attention to the conversation. I just started thinking things at Edward. Things that would not give anything away. I kept throwing pure sorrow at Jasper. My poor husband. I would owe him big time after this. I decided to ease up on sorrow and give him some loving emotions-very subtle and light.
Bella will be my friend. Why can't our friendship start now? I put this thought on repeat.
I heard him mention something about Mrs. Cope again, so I changed my thoughts. It sounded better before I said it. Sorry, Edward. Can I please, please be friends with Bella? She wants to be my friend! She needs to be my friend. You've seen it. It will happen. It doesn't matter what you do to prevent it!
Then I saw my vision more clearly. I wasn't going to show him this one, for fear that he wouldn't go. I showed him one I had earlier today. I gave him the vision of him attempting to talk to Bella Swan again.
"You had better not change your mind on me. Bella is going to be my friend. I want you to promise this will be soon, near future! I will not wait long before I talk to her again. She already said she'll go shopping with me!" I warned him, backing it up with my thoughts.
He left quickly. Bella Swan was going to get a visitor tonight. A tall, bronze haired visitor. A visitor who was going to fall in love with her. A visitor who would someday turn her. I began to get all giddy and hyper. Jasper raised an eyebrow at me. I smiled and jumped up to give him a kiss.
"Thank you, Jazz." I whispered into his ear. I kissed right below his ear. I was rewarded with a moan.
EPOV
I nodded to Alice and then tore out of the house at ninety miles an hour. A dip in the ocean sounded good right now.
As I was running to the Ocean, I could not get my mind off of Bella Swan. She was sleeping, of this I was certain. I needed to be sure she was alright. I decided to check up on her. Just to be sure. It wasn't bad. It was caring. At least that's what I was trying to tell myself. I got to her home and found her room easily. I opened the window and slipped in.
Oh My God! She was absolutely gorgeous sleeping there on her bed. She had kicked her sheets so that they were wrapped around her legs. Her sweatshirt had risen leaving her navel exposed. Her beautiful, long brunette locks were spilling along her pillow and across her face. Her pale skin seemed to gleam in the moonlight. I could faintly see her blood flowing through her veins.
Bad thought. I needed to stop thinking of her blood. Her scent hit me suddenly. It was overwhelming. It made my venom pool into my mouth. It was heart breaking. I wanted her blood so badly. Maybe…no I couldn't. I had to leave. Quickly!
"Edward." She sighed. I stopped in my tracks. She had discovered me watching her in her sleep. What was I going to do now? I turned slowly only to see her roll over so she was facing me. Her eyes were still closed.
"Edward." She mumbled again, this time it was very light. I knew she was still asleep. She was dreaming of me!
"No, don't go. Please stay, Edward." She mumbled again after several minutes. She was dreaming of me and she wanted me to stay! My heart swelled. I suddenly realized I was passed falling for her. I had fallen deeply in love with this fragile human child.
I walked slightly closer to her and whispered so she couldn't hear, "Your wish is my command, love. I will stay as long as you want me, Bella, my sweet." I then turned and sat down on the rocking chair. I saw her as she slept. She was absolutely stunning and interesting. She dreamed and I was featured in those dreams. I could almost see the images in her mind. This was the only time I would ever even be close to reading her mind.
When the morning came, I saw her stir. I didn't want to leave. I wanted to stay and watch her forever. I just couldn't though. I slipped out before she even opened her eyes. I would see her at school. Soon enough I would be close to the one I loved so much.
BPOV
Before I could thank her, she was gone. Edward was walking towards the Biology building not a minute later. He looked down at me and sighed. I got up and stalked to class after him.
He did not seem as distant as he had been lately. Then again maybe that was just wishful thinking. In my dream last night, he had said he loved me. Obviously, this was not the case. I sighed sadly and he spun around.
"Are you alright? Do you need ice or something?" He seemed eager to help.
"I'm fine. My hand isn't brothering me at all." I smiled as I continued toward Biology. A movie, perfect.
I heard him mumble, "Of course, the silent martyr."
In all honesty I was shocked by what I heard.
During class he made sure he sat as far away from me as possible. In fact, he was only half sitting on his chair. His hands were in tight fists by his sides. He wouldn't even look at me. I took notes like Alice had told me and I stole quick glances at Edward. He seemed angry again.
I sighed again, I wanted so badly to be his friend. His head snapped toward me as he questioned me quietly with his eyes. He did care about my hand, more so than necessary. He cared about it more than Mike and every other person-Angela included- did. I simply shrugged my shoulders and stretched my other hand. He nodded and returned his attention to the extremely boring movie.
After Biology was over, he was gone. I started to walk out when Mr. Banner called me over. "Miss Swan?" Great!
"Yes?" I wanted to get out.
"You and Mr. Cullen-even though you don't seem to get along well, unfortunately- are the top of my class and I want to reward the two of you on Friday. I would also like to know if you would mind doing some tutoring. It would be a one time thing-unless you like doing it-probably next week. I wanted to ask Edward the same thing, but he ran out too quickly." I was taken back.
"I guess I don't mind tutoring a little." What was I supposed to say, absolutely not?
I walked out just to see Edward leaning against the wall by the door. In his hand was a bottle of Ibuprofen and a bottle of water. I couldn't help it, I raised an eyebrow at him and laughed. He tore out of Biology that fast to get me pain reliever when we weren't suppose to have it on campus without visiting the nurse?
At the moment, though, I didn't care. My hand did hurt. I took the bottle-I had to break the seal and pull out the cotton-and shook out the dose I would need and handed it back to him. He handed me the water and I downed the pills.
"Thanks." I whispered. He smiled and nodded.
"Mr. Cullen, can I talk to you for a second?" Mr. Banner asked while leaving his classroom. I was suddenly embarrassed by how close Edward was to me. I walked around the corner to be out of sight, but stopped so I could hear.
"Yes, Sir?" Edward's velvety voice was low, almost a whisper.
"I talked to Bella earlier. I wanted to inform you that you are getting a reward on Friday for being the top of the class-with Bella. Also, I wanted to know if you would mind performing a one time tutoring session with Bella?" Mr. Banner said it quickly-almost like he was scared to ask.
There was a brief pause and I could only imagine what Edward's face looked like. "I don't know about that, sir." Edward said slowly, weighing each word.
"You'll both be paid for it. It will give you both extra credit. What can I do to get you to agree?" Mr. Banner said quickly. Edward laughed and then sighed.
"I suppose I could help my classmates." He said before saying goodbye. I was still standing in my spot. I wasn't told we were getting paid. That was a plus! Edward rounded the corner and caught me eavesdropping. He rolled his eyes and walked passed me. He was probably late for his next class.
EPOV
I decided to get Bella something to ease her pain. She kept sighing and moving her hand this way and that. She had to be in pain. When I gave her the medicine she look so small and helpless I felt the need to protect her from her own hand. I took an involuntary step forward. She took the medicine without complaint.
She took a half step forward. Suddenly I was over aware that her neck was less than a foot from me. This was dangerously close. I could smell the blood which basically begged for me.
I was pulled out of my trance-yes, Bella's blood had put me in a trance- by Mr. Banner. "Mr. Cullen, can I talk to you for a second?" Wow, I thought they didn't like each other that well. They were so close, but he looks like he is possessed around her. I hope I didn't interrupt anything. Although, I don't think they should be kissing. Gosh, Bella is such a pretty girl. I somewhat wish she were older. I stiffened at his thoughts. Although he was right about something. I was possessed by Bella's blood.
"Yes, Sir?" I answered, trying to control my voice.
"I talked to Bella earlier." She is such a sweet girl. So pretty when she blushes. Pretty doesn't cover it, she is always gorgeous. " I wanted to inform you that you are getting a reward on Friday for being the top of the class-with Bella." The smartest couple in the whole class. In the whole Junior Level Biology along with Alice. Must be something with that Cullen family. Science orientated. Bella was extremely smart. Alice and I have been around long enough not to pass with flying colors in our sleep. Of course we couldn't sleep so that didn't work out well. Plus I had been to medical school. Ha! I would like Mr. Banner to beat that. "Also, I wanted to know if you would mind performing a one time tutoring session with Bella?" Mr. Banner finished quickly.It'll hopefully work. Get the other kids to get interested in science. The girls would hopefully listen because of Edward. The guys because everyone is in love with Bella. It has to work.
I would absolutely love to work closely with Bella. To watch her teach a bunch of stupid adolescents who were drooling all over her Biology. To hear their perverted thoughts. Not! I would rather set fire to myself. Not that I wouldn't love to work with Bella. I loved Bella. I would go to the ends of the earth for Bella. It's the others I don't like.
If it were all boys, I would get to hear perverted thoughts and fantasies about them and Bella. If it were girls, they would be daggers at Bella and perverted thoughts revolving around me. But it is both, I shudder to think of the havoc that would inflict on my mind.
"I don't know about that, sir." I didn't want to endure that, but if Bella was doing it, I was too.
"You'll both be paid for it. It will give you both extra credit. What can I do to get you to agree?" Mr. Banner said quickly. I laughed at the thought of needing the money or the credit. Ugh! He said "You'll" while he thoughts replayed Bella accepting the offer. I had to now.
"I suppose I could help my classmates." I finally agreed. I heard a faint gasp coming from around the corner. Bella was eavesdropping. Not that I minded. I didn't mind in the slightest. I decided to round the corner and catch her eavesdropping. Her face looked like a doe caught in headlight. Her eyes were big and she looked ashamed. Her skin was a dark shade of pink. A very inviting color of pink. I rolled my eyes and walked passed her as quickly as I could. I needed to get out of there, now. Before I attacked the love of my life.
The love of my life. She really was that now, wasn't she? I loved her. I couldn't tell her that though. She was human and had a soul. I couldn't expect love in return. If she knew what I was, she'd probably die of fright. I couldn't be apart of her life. I could, however, watch her life. Make sure she was safe. Protect her from serious harm. Yes, she needed a protector and somehow I fit the job.
Hey y'all,
I was going to say Hello in Gaelic-to prove my point, but I can't remember how. Drat the luck.
I decided to show you what the Demonic Pixie (Alice is my favorite character by far...) was thinking during the confrontation with Edward. I thought it was pretty funny. I have a little but of Emmett/mad Rosalie coming up next. Along with some other stuff. Of course this story is mostly about Bella and Edward.
Someone asked how this had anything to do with Friday the Thirteenth. First, I thought of the story and plotted it out on the 13th of February-which was a friday. Second, when I was younger I had no luck. I complained about it oneday to a Lady who helped at Tae Kwon Do. She said to wait for Friday the Thirteenth and I would have good luck. She told me that luck is reversed on that day. I really didn't believe her, but it was a nice thought.
Now I am *trying* to write this story straight thrrough so I don't get sidetracked. So far that is going alright...but we'll see. I am going to purposely make Edward go OOC next chapter. I don't try to do that...but I think I need to.
