Hope you guys like this chapter. :)
After a terribly long Biology class I dragged myself outside. I wasn't looking forward to going home, Charlie most likely would not be home which meant hours of me just sitting there. Getting desperate enough to do homework! I took the long way home to waste some time and see the outside of Forks. Basically I was just making a BIG circle around the town. Kind of a waste of time right ? Well that's how much I didn't want to go home. As I made it out to the back roads where no one else was, I was getting pretty relaxed in my car. Just cruising down the back roads alternating between hitting the gas or slowly checking out the scenery. Which wasn't really all that great, just green. Very green. Looking out into the forest I saw the flash of somebody running through the trees. What? Who would be out here running around? Wait, what if that person is running around looking for help? I bet they don't even realize they're right by the road! I pulled over and jumped out my car. I nearly tripped over my shoes so I pulled them off and chucked them onto the passenger's seat of my car. I walked up to edge of the forest and peered in between the branches. I couldn't see anyone anymore but that didn't really mean anything. I took a step into the forest and looked around. Not much light could get through the trees so it was mostly black. It looked creepy.
"Hello. Is someone here ? Do you need some help ? Helloo ?", I called out. Maybe I'm just going crazy, nobody would be out in the middle of the forest. I rolled my eyes. I've been spending to much time alone. I need therapy, I'm going crazy now. I moved my hair and turned around when a big gust of wind hit my face. My eyes started watering and as I started towards my car I heard a branch snap. My whole body froze. I slowly turned around and looked back into the forest. What looked kind of creepy a couple of minutes ago looked down right terrifying now. I know that someone must have made that branch snap. But it had to be someone very strong. I swung my body around and bolted to my car full force. I opened my car door and practically jumped inside. I slammed the door shut and started the car, my whole body was trembling. I pulled off the side of the road and almost went into the ditch in my haste. I pulled a U-ie and speed all the way back to town. When I was about five minutes away from my house I finally started to calm down. Deep breaths Bella, calm down. I pulled into my driveway and turned off the car. When I got out of the car I realized that Charlie's police cruiser and another car were parked in the driveway too. I ran up the steps and opened the door wondering who was here.
"Bella! Is that you? ", Charlie said coming into the hallway.
"Yes, is something wrong?", I said trying to pull the innocent act.
"Yes there is! Where have you been? I've been calling you for the past hour! "
"What, you have?", I looked down at my phone. Six missed calls from Charlie. "Oh , I'm sorry. I was just driving around...with my music turned up really loud. That was probably why I didn't hear my phone.
Charlie gave me a look telling me he didn't buy my story. "So, who's here? ", I said smiling trying to change the subject. Apparently it worked.
"Oh, Billy Black and his son Jake, Jake said he knew you from school?", Charlie said.
"Oh yeah he's in my Bio class."
I moved past him to go into the living room when he noticed something.
"Bella. What happened to your feet? Where are your shoes?", Charlie asked me.
I turned around trying to think of an excuse. All three of them were looking at me waiting for an answer.
"Uhmmm...", I started.
EPOV:
I had been running around in the forest all day avoiding school. How could a fragile human have so much control of me ? Why me? It was like my personal hell coming to make me cave. To give up this diet. To become the true monster I am.
I was running faster then ever when I realized I just went around the entire town of Forks out of frustration. What am I going to do ? I punched a tree in anger. If I was planning on going back to school anytime soon I might as well make the chances of me snapping even slimmer. I was going to hunt, I was getting thirsty anyway. I closed my eyes and stood still smelling the air. I caught scent of an elk about 2 km away and was just about to head over that way when I heard music from the road. I ran and jumped up into the nearest tree. The car slowed down and the person got out. They turned back around really fast and as they did I caught smell of their scent; Bella. Oh, I couldn't even imagine that someone's blood could smell that good. I almost ran forward and attacked her but stopped myself just in time.
Because of my little fight with myself I didn't realize that she had come to the edge of the forest.
"Hello. Is someone here ? Do you need some help ? Helloo ?", she called out.
Oh if she only knew. I do need help, I was thinking about taking an innocent human's life. And I still am if I was to be honest. I wonder what she would do if I told her. I laughed dryly under my breath, to low for her to hear. I already knew the answer to that one she would run in the other direction as fast as she could. And even then I would still be able to out run her. I saw her roll her eyes and turn around. She truly stood up to her name. Beautiful. And she didn't even know it. Even when she rolled her eyes or looked mad, she just looked cute. I was too busy thinking about her that I didn't see it coming until it was to late.
The gust of wind came up and blew her scent straight towards me full force. Oh, so mouth watering. I need to taste her blood. I couldn't stop breathing it in, I was about to jump down when I thought of Carlisle and Esme. I stopped breathing instantly. How could I think of betraying them like that? But her scent still lingered in the back of my mind. The thick branch I was holding onto snapped like a twig under my hands as I started to think about her scent. I saw Bella freeze as she heard the noise.
"Fuck," I cursed under my breath, I never swore but now the risk of my secret was about to be exposed.
I saw Bella turn around and look into the forest. I saw the terror evident in her eyes. She turned around and ran as fast as she could. As she should, she should ran as far as she can I thought sadly. Why did the thought of this human leaving make me sad? I just shrugged it off as I watched Bella try to get away as fast as she could. She almost ended up in the ditch. She turned her car around and speed away. I jumped down from the branch lightly and landed on the ground. I turned away from the road and started walking at human pace back to my house. The long gone elk forgotten. I wasn't in the mood anymore, I didn't want to kill anything. To be a monster. I wonder what Alice saw me doing before I changed my mind... What if she told everyone. I could already hear everyone's disappointment and Rosalie's anger that I almost made us move. I couldn't deal with that right now, not with what just happened. I turned around and started walking in a different direction. I didn't know where to go, I just knew I couldn't go home.
