Chapter two
Conversations and an awaiting surprise
BPOV
"B-bella" I stumbled out as I looked into his perfectly colored golden eyes.
"Well its nice to meet you Bella, but I'm sorry for making you fall down." He said as the sound of his voice sent chills down my spine. "Are you alright? It looked like you were in quite a lot of pain there." He said with question and concern visible in his eyes.
"Uh yeah..." I said a bit awkwardly, holding out the yeah a little bit longer then necessary.
"I err; just hurt my ribs a little on a fall I took down the stairs." Yeah the stairs lets go with that.
"Are you sure?" he asked, clearly not believing my story.
Uh oh this is exactly why I don't interact with people. They observe something that's a little off and question it right off the bat. And I can't afford him even slightly thinking something is wrong or different about me, when he shouldn't even be talking to me.
"Of course I am" I said with an awkward chuckle "Now if you will excuse me, but I need to get to class before I'm late." I told him wanting to end this conversation.
I started walking to class when I heard him call my name.
"Bella wait!" I turned around only to see him running towards me in perfect grace.
"What?" I said through clenched teeth suddenly feeling angry that he won't leave me alone. I mean I should be happy that he actually wants to talk to me, but it's not safe without me ending up with a beating.
He looked slightly frustrated and curious about something.
"I just wanted to know if you could show me where the office is." He said, sounding slightly desperate
"Sure" I said gruffly leading him down the hall
EPOV
Of course I knew where the office was but I wanted to spend more time talking to Bella.
She's harder for me to read then like everyone else, because for some reason I can't get through to her mind. Its almost like a shield is covering her from me, but she's human I just don't understand.
When she fell, she hissed out in pain and started breathing hard, and taking heavy breaths. At first I wanted to grab her and hold her in my arms and protect her from any harm, but I knew better and had to fight the urge, which was quite harder then I thought it would be because she was the most beautiful human I have ever seen and her sent. Oh. My. God… I wanted to take her away and keep her as mine and mine only but that would hurt her and I couldn't ever hurt her. I felt a sudden possessive part of me come out as I thought this. So at the end of my rant in my head I just instead gave her my hand to help her back up, which she did accept.
The fall seemed to hurt more then it should have, which got me wondering if she was already hurt before she fell, and if she was, then by what or who would have caused it, because I know for sure her little "I fell down the stairs" act wasn't true, then what is the truth? It's Just another mystery to find out about her.
We came to a stop in a middle of a hallway to a door that says "Office" on it.
"Thank you, Bella" I said, turning towards her with a smile.
"Err your welcome" Bella said about to turn away, but I wasn't going to allow that.
"Bella" I said grabbing her hand making her gasp from the coldness of mine, making me quickly with draw my hand. "Would you like to sit with my family and I at lunch?" I asked as if nothing unusual happened.
She went completely rigid by this which just boosted my curiosity scale about her.
"Umm n-no I-I c-cant, s-ss-sorry" she stumbled out and keeping her eyes averted away from me.
"Why not" I Pushed
"I'm S-sorry but I g-got to g-go. She said turning away, but this time without me pulling her back, but instead stunned.
Why was she so nervous? What was so bad that made her stumble across her words and not want to sit with us?
I know one thing though, and that would be that Bella Swan has a secret, and I'm going to find out what.
BPOV
I can't get to close to him I just cant, but why do I feel so drawn to him? And why was I so tempted to say yes to sitting with his family? I wondered this as I walked through the door of my house after a long day of trying to stay invisible to any of the new kids and of course to their brother Edward.
But as soon as I walked through that door I immediately wished I was back out of it.
Because Charlie was standing right in front of me, looking more trashed and wasted then I have ever seen.
"I have a surprise for you" I heard before everything went black.
