Thanks for reviewing and enjoy!

Three weeks later

Edward was searching all over the house trying to find Lexi. He had told her before that he'd help her study for her math test tomorrow, but now it seemed that she was hiding from him.

"Have any of you seen Lexi?" he asked the Cullens, furiously. "I can't find her anywhere."

"No, we haven't, why?" asked Esme.

"She's hiding from me," he said going outside. Edward inhaled trying to see if he could pick up her scent. Her blood was getting to be an addiction. He had to control himself not to attack her. He'd hunt more than usual just to satisfy his thirst, but maybe it was more than her blood that he needed.

Edward slapped himself mentally. This girl has brought him nothing but trouble ever since she came into his life. His head shot to the side when he tracked down her scent. She was here not too long ago and was close by.

He blasted full speed over at that direction following her trail. He stopped when he spotted her. She was in the middle of a circle of grass and the trees were the fence. It wasn't anything like the meadow, but similar. She was wearing the same white dress that she had when she fell from the sky; she usually wore that, but when she went out she had to put on different clothes, even making holes to fit her wings through, and then put her jacket so no one could tell what she hid. She hated wearing it, but she had no other choice.

Lexi giggled as she tried to catch the butterflies that were playing and feeding on the flowers. She spotted one that was resting on one of the flowers, so she slowly walked up to it. Her hands were inching their way slowly for the catch.

"Lexi!"

Lexi gasped as she fell over. She pouted as she watched the butterfly fly away. She groaned and got up. "You couldn't wait until I caught the…" Lexi's voice died on her lips. It was a rare sunny day outside, the sunlight penetrating between the forest's trees. She watched in amazement as the light hit Edward's skin. "You're shining?" she whispered.

"One of our many vampire traits," he said.

Lexi walked slowly to him as his skin reflected her eyes. She took hold of his hand inspecting in awe. She then moved her hand up his perfect face. His eyes turned golden again after his hunt earlier. "By God, how could he have created such a beautiful thing?" she said disbelief. Edward closed his eyes, feeling her caress his skin. His mouth was watering and was itching to taste her blood again. Lexi looked at his facial expression and knew what he wanted. "When was the last time you fed?"

Edward reopened his eyes and looked at her. "Three days ago," he rasped.

"Then why are you so hungry?" she asked.

"I don't know. Every time I get near you I feel this way. I can't quench this thirst." He stared at her neck and his bite marks from before were already healed. She bit her lip wondering what she could do. Lexi pulled her hair back, offering herself to him to end his thirst. "No," he growled and pulled away from her.

"Edward, I've had with your stubbornness. That's what I'm here for. I try to help you, but you won't let me." She walked in front of him and stared at him dead in his eyes. "Trust me."

"It's not you, Lexi. It's me. I don't trust myself," he said. Lexi sighed and wrapped her arms around his neck. She wanted to show him how much she loved him and that she'll always be there to protect him or to be needed by him.

Edward smelled her aroma; she was wearing one of the perfume's Alice bought her. She smelled angelic and felt soft to the touch. He pulled away and cupped her face. "Ever since you came here, I've been trying to push you away. Bella left a scar in my un-beating heart. I vowed never to fall in love again and even tried to kill myself. Then you showed up. All you've been trying to do is help me forget her and to move on with my life. I owe you so much, but Lexi," he said putting her glasses up, "I can see it in your eyes."

Lexi tried to hide her face in his hand, feeling her eyes start to sting. "I can't though. I just came here to try and help you forget about Bella, not to blend in with society and stay here forever." She turned her head back to see him. "I can't love someone who I will never be with."

Edward gently wiped her tears. "I wish I would have met you before Bella. Before you died," he said. "I don't love you, Lexi, but I do care about you."

Lexi smiled. "That's all I want Edward. That and for you to be happy again."

Edward smiled back and kissed her forehead. "Thank you. But, I can't help but wonder why were you trying to hide from me?"

Lexi bit her lip. "I wasn't hiding," she lied, receiving and roar coming from the sky.

Edward laughed. "You're lying."

Lexi crossed her arms. "Fine, but I told you I don't want to go to school."

"You're going anyways. You have a math test tomorrow and you have to study for that."

"Make me," she said, sticking her tongue out at him, walking away from him. Edward grabbed Lexi and put her over his shoulder. "Edward! Put me down this instance!" she yelled as she trashed against his shoulder.

"Nope, it looks like I'm going to make you study the hard way," he said going back to the house.

Lexi bit her pencil as she watched the teacher pass out the test papers. Edward pulled her pencil out of her mouth and gave her a reassuring smile. Lexi smiled back and looked at the test when it was put in front of her. She sighed heavily and began the test.

Lexi waited impatiently outside her math class, waiting for the teacher to finish checking her test. It was by Edward's orders that he wanted the teacher to check Lexi's paper quick to know what she received. He even told her to wait outside the class for the result while he stayed inside with the teacher.

Lexi groaned as she leaned again the lockers. Her patience was running low. "Why is it taking so long?" she asked herself. "Maybe because the teacher is marking a lot of points down. I wonder if I leave now, I could have a chance to escape before Edward sees me."

She looked back towards the door and headed for the nearest exit. She gasped as Edward walked past her, blocking her entrance. "Where do you think you're going?"

"Nowhere," she said turning red. She winced as more lighting was heard.

"Nowhere, huh? Don't you want to know what you got on the test?" he said handing her the test paper. Lexi sighed and grabbed it from his hands. She peaked inside the folded sheet.

"I got a B+?!" exclaimed Lexi, not believing what she was seeing.

Edward smiled. "Are you happy for your grade?"

Lexi nodded and jumped into Edward's arms. "Thank you so much, Edward. I couldn't have done it without you."

"It was you who put the effort into it. Be proud of yourself," he said, ruffling her hair.

"I am," she said, fixing it back.

"And now you know the second order of business, right?" Lexi brow furrowed in confusion. "I'm going to help you learn how to fly."
