We own nothing but the plot proudly!


I kept my face neutral as I continued to smile at him.

"And nothing, just introducing myself," I said.

If I wasn't trying to win this guy over, I would have laughed as his features turned from that of annoyance to complete shock that I didn't seem scared of him. Little did he know that the more I would "fear" him, the more it made me want him.

After a couple of seconds, his face went back to normal and he gave me the once over before responding. "I know who you are. I have had to listen to everyone talk about you," he said, not sounding very impressed.

"Well, I don't know what there is to talk about," I said with a shrug of my shoulders.

I was about to turn back around in my seat when he spoke again, his voice was deep and pure man. "Please, little girl. You're walking around here with bruises that you seem to be proud of! Yeah, people are going to talk."

He leaned in then, as if trying to intimidate me. I could smell his aftershave and what smelled like a mento on his breath. Just the smell of him alone made my stomach muscles tighten, and it took all of my will power not to close the little distance between us, and press my lips to his. I don't think I ever had that strong of a reaction to James. Opening my eyes, that I hadn't even realized I'd closed, I forced myself to take a deep breath before responding.

"Yeah well, it's no one's business how they got there," I said as I saw his hand, which was on top of the table, twitch.

It was almost as if he was going to touch me, but he didn't. His piercing green eyes stayed locked on mine, and I swear I could practically see them getting darker by the second. The teacher calling the class to order finally made us break from our staring contest, and we started working on a lab together. For some reason every once in a while our hands would touch, and I would feel this warmth run through my body; I had never felt anything like it. We were the first ones finished, and just sat there in complete silence. I wanted him to talk some more. It was like I needed to hear his voice.

"May I ask you a question?" I inquired as he rolled his eyes at me.

"May I not answer?"

Deciding to ignore his remark, I continued as if he hadn't answered me in the first place. "I have lunch next period and I was wondering: if I go sit in my car to smoke, would anyone notice?"

Edward's eyes widened comically as he looked at me like I had grown another head or something. "Yeah, they'll notice," he said and I nodded my head in understanding. "But, I know a place. I'll show you."

I was surprised that he offered to help me so easily, and I couldn't help the smile that broke out across my face. More time with him? Just the two of us? That was more than I could have hoped for today. Of course, I had no idea where this place was, but seeing as how smoking on school grounds was completely prohibited, I would wager that wherever he had planned to take me was going to be isolated and far from public eye. Little did he know, I would go anywhere with him.

"I eat before I go, though. Then again, I heard that you'll be sitting with us at lunch, so just follow me when I get up," he said, picking up his bag.

The bell rang soon after that, and like he demanded, I followed him out of the room and into the crowded hallway. We walked side by side to lunch, closer than we needed to, but it was as if we couldn't help it. We were like two magnets together that you couldn't pull apart no matter how hard you tried. As we reached the lunch line, he stood behind me, grabbing onto my shoulders lightly. Shivering from his touch alone, I had to will my hands not to shake as I picked up the only edible looking thing in line; the pizza. Edward picked up his own slice as I walked ahead slightly to the register to pay for my food.

I was reaching into my back pocket for my cash when Edward stopped me with a touch on my wrist.

"I got it," he said as he pulled out money from his own wallet and paid for our lunch.

I smirked internally to myself. Yeah, I knew he wanted me. I smiled at him and whispered a 'thanks' as he led me across the room to sit with his friends.

"Hey Bella!" Alice said, practically bouncing in her seat. She seemed to be overly hyper. "This is my boyfriend, Jasper. You've already met Rose, and that's Emmett," she said with a huge smile on her face, pointing to each person in turn. "So, Rose told me what you said to Jessica! That is priceless, but it's not true, right?"

I stared kind of blankly at her, wondering if she even took a breath in that sentence, before sitting down in the chair beside Edward.

"No," I said with a laugh. "It's not true."

"So...what happened then?" Rose asked leaning closer to me.

"I guess you could say I got into a fight," I said acting as if it was no big deal. I saw Edward watching from the corner of my eye. I knew he wanted to know.

"And?" Alice asked sitting on the edge of her seat.

"And what?"

"How did you end up here in Forks? Was it because of the fight?" Rose asked.

"Yeah, I'm living with my Dad."

"The Police Chief is her Father," Edward stated causing everyone to stare at him.

"I didn't tell you that," I said confused.

"Your last name is Swan. There's only one other person with that last name here," he replied as if the answer was obvious. Granted...it was.

Looking around the table I saw everyone gaping at Edward like fish out of water. They seemed to have trouble finding words and I had no idea why.

"It's going to be a good year!" Emmett said with a laugh.

"Am I missing something here?" I asked, confused out of my mind.

"No," Edward said glaring at Emmett.

Deciding to drop it, I turned back to my uneaten pizza. I knew I should probably eat something, and the faster I did, the faster we could go smoke. With that in mind, I ate half of my pizza before feeling full, so I got up with the intention of throwing the rest away.

"What are you doing?" Edward asked when I started to get up.

"I'm done."

"Dibs!" Emmett shouted grabbing the half eaten pizza right off my plate.

I laughed and looked over to Edward to see if he was done eating so we could leave or not.

"We're going to go smoke," Edward said as he stood up beside me.

Rose looked like she wanted to say something, but was biting her tongue, and Alice's eyes lit up as she got a giant smile on her face. She was so weird.

I waited at the end of the table for him as he threw away his trash, and we walked close together out the doors. No words were spoken as we rounded the building and went through some trees. Edward only led us a couple of feet into the trees before stopping. I looked back and saw that we were completely hidden, so I pulled out my pack of cigarettes and lit one up. I looked at Edward to see that he already had his out an lit as well. I watched him unabashedly as he took a long drag of his. God, he was sexy.

"Thanks for showing me this place," I said to him, trying to get him to talk to me once more.

"Whatever, just don't tell anyone," he said.

He wasn't asking, he was demanding, and I wanted to fuck him right then and there. Instead I continued to inhale the smoke, trying not to eye fuck him too much.

"What happened?" He asked reaching for me and placing his hand on my neck where I knew the bruises were.

Keeping my eyes trained on him, I breathed out not so quietly. "I can't tell you," I said as he stepped closer to me.

"I want to know," he said in almost a whisper.

Our cigarettes were now long forgotten, and his hand was still lightly grazing my neck, causing goosebumps to cover my overheated body.

"If I tell you, you'll think I'm a freak," I said.

I needed to make sure my instincts were right about him. I wasn't usually wrong, but I couldn't risk it in this case.

"Don't tell me what I will think," he whispered harshly, his grip tightening slightly on my neck.

"My ex-boyfriend did it. My mom walked in on us and she sent me away. She said she was trying to keep me safe," I said rolling my eyes and showing my annoyance. "I didn't want him to get in trouble so, I said I would leave if nothing happened to him."

Edward appeared to be taking in what I had just told him, his eyes never leaving mine. The only sign that I had to go off of, was that his grip became tighter around my throat, but not enough to cut off my air supply.

"I don't want to see you with his markings on you," he said. "What did you do to piss him off?"

I shook my head slightly as Edward released my throat altogether before taking a small step back. "Nothing. His dad made him mad and I was the person he vented to."

"You talk like you enjoyed getting your ass beat," he commented.

"In a way I do," I said truthfully as his face got closer to mine.

I had to put it all out in the open so that he knew what he would be getting into with me. No surprises, even if it meant he might run from me screaming. Though at this point, I highly doubted he would.

"You're fucked up," he said.

I closed my eyes as I felt my heart sink to my feet. Was I completely wrong about him?

"I know," I whispered.

"I am too," he whispered brokenly as he softly placed his lips on mine.

Surprised beyond belief, my eyes snapped open to see him just pulling back, his eyes trained on mine. "You should stay away from me; I'm not good for you."

"I'm no good for you either," I countered, feeling my heart start to beat again, "And I can't. I can barely contain myself around you. Don't ask me to stay away," I said, almost begging.

"I will hurt you."

"As long as you don't leave me, you won't," I countered.

"I meant that I have a nasty temper and I could easily do this to you," he said, running the pad of his thumb across my broken lip.

"It's okay," I assured him.

"It's not, but okay," he said giving me this amazing crooked smile.

Deciding that we've had enough distance between us for one day, I leaned in and kissed him. He put one hand on my ass and pulled me closer to him while his other hand ran the length of my back.

Before we could really get into it, Edward pulled back just enough, breathing heavily. "If I give you a real kiss, will it hurt your lip?" He asked.

Smiling at the completely unexpected show of kindness, I leaned in once more and placed a chaste kiss on his cheek. "Just don't bite it."

With that, he deepened our kiss and my legs instantly felt weak. I wanted more; I needed it, but he pulled away all too soon.

"We have a lot to talk about," he said as he re-lit his cigarette.

I looked down to see that mine had gone out as well, and I hadn't even noticed.

"Come to my house after school. Alice is my sister, so you can tell your dad that you're hanging out with her," he said.

Looking back at my un-lit cigarette I tossed in on the ground seeing as how I didn't know how much time we had left outside. Instead I picked up my phone and called Charlie. He sounded excited about me hanging with Alice, and told me what a great family they all were. I had to hold back my laughter; if he only knew.

"We're all set." I grinned happily after the phone call ended.

"Good. Now that's taken care of..." he said, snubbing out his cigarette on the tree beside him. "Tomorrow when I see you, and everyday after, I want anything that isn't mine covered up," he said pointing to my neck.

"I can do that for you," I said easily. "I would do anything to make you happy."

"I like the sound of that," he said with a smile. "What do you have next?"

I groaned lightly remembering that we still had the rest of the day of school left. "Gym."

"We all have that," he said with another smile. "We're playing bad mitten."

"Oh joy," I said faking my enthusiasm. "I hate gym and I have no coordination. I'll probably end up hurting myself or someone else," I said with a pout.

"Don't worry," he said putting his arm around my waist as we headed back to the school. "Em, Jasper, and I usually are the only ones to play. The girls just act like they do," he said kissing my cheek.

"Good to know."

And just like that, we were together. There was something special about Edward, something that James never had. Edward was the perfect guy for me, and I was on cloud nine. I guess my hair-brained mother helped me out a little bit, even though she'd never know it. Edward gave me one more kiss before I walked into the gym to find the coach. He gave me a pair of blue shorts and a white top to wear, and said that I was responsible to make sure I had them every class. Nodding that I understood, I quickly left for the locker room hoping to find Alice and Rosalie still in there. I spotted them immediately as they waved me over and let me store my things in their locker.

"So, what did you and Edward talk about?" Alice asked.

"Nothing much."

"Bullshit! Lauren just came in and said that her and her harpies saw the two of you kissing," Rose said as she crossed her arms over her chest. "Did anything I say earlier sink into that head of yours?"

"There are things about me the two of you don't know," I said in defense. "I like Edward; he's going to be good for me." A smile spread across my face as I spoke.

"Did he tell you why we moved here?" Alice whispered, looking around the locker room like she was afraid of someone overhearing us.

"No, but I'm sure we will talk about it later," I told her, hoping that she would get the message that I would rather hear about that from Edward himself.

"What do you mean later?" Alice asked as she finished getting dressed.

"I'm going to your house after school," I said, causing her to squeal. It was mixed with a screech, and it hurt my ears.

"Alice! Fuck! I hate when you do that!" Rose said covering her ears.

"Sorry, I'm just so excited!" She said clapping her hands together. "Our parents are gone for the weekend, so you have to spend the night! You'll have to sleep in Edward's room because Jasper will be in mine and Emmett will be with Rose, but maybe after dinner the three of us can have some girl time!" She was jumping up and down as she spoke.

"I'll have to ask Charlie," I said as we headed out to the gym.

"He's not going to care, he loves me!" Rose said with a smile.

"I'll take your word for it," I laughed.

Gym wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Actually, school wasn't too bad either. I think I made some great friends and Forks was going to grow on me. I should call and thank my mother. The rest of the day was a blur. I had calculus, and Current Events, and my day was done. This was going to be an easy school year.

Edward met me outside my last class, and we walked to the parking lot hand in hand. Everyone was staring at us, but neither one of us cared. He gave me a kiss before I got into my car, asking if I needed a pack of smokes before we went to his house. I told him no, but that he was sweet to offer. James had given me a few packs to hold me over until I could find someone who was eighteen. Before I left school, I looked at my cell and saw that James had called me. I quickly called him back.

"Hey beautiful," he purred into the phone. "How was your day? Fuck, I miss you."

"I miss you too," I said with a sigh. "School is the same here as it was there."

"I see. So, did you meet anyone?" His voice was sad, but at the same time I knew that he was genuinely worried that I wouldn't meet anyone.

"I did. I met these two sisters, Alice and Rose. I'm headed to their house now," I said getting excited.

"Not what I meant, but I'm glad. How many dates did you get?"

"None, but I really like Alice's brother," I said truthfully as he hummed in response.

"That's good, baby," he said. "Just don't forget about me."

"I could never!" I said telling the truth.

"I'm glad to hear that," he replied. "I was hanging out with Vicki today. She seems cool, so I think I'm going to ask her out. I just hate being without someone."

"I feel the same way," I told him. "I want you to be happy, James."

After a bit more small talk we ended our call as I pulled on to a long drive way. As Edward's house came into view, I was blown away. There were so many windows, and it looked to be three stories high. The parts of the house that weren't widows were a dark brown color, and the whole thing was surrounded by woods. It was so peaceful.

I stepped out of my car, my eyes never leaving the view of the house. It was phenomenal.

"Who were you on the phone with?" Edward asked as he walked over to me and pulled me out of my musings.

"This house is like nothing I have ever seen," I told him with a smile.

"Do you like it? This is the best house we have ever lived in!" Alice said as she walked next to me. "I'll give you a tour."

"Not right now," Edward said as Alice backed off.

"Later then," she said with a smile.

"Definitely!" I said as we walked into the house.

As we stepped into the entry way, Alice and Edward immediately began discarding their shoes and coats. I followed suit, leaving my shoes at the door and putting my coat in the closet.

"Do you want something to drink before we go upstairs?" Edward asked.

"No, I'm okay right now." With that said, he took me by the hand, and we went to his room. His room was on the third floor and the whole back wall was a window.

"I love your room," I told him, as I looked around.

He had shelves of movies, music, and a flat screen TV with surround sound. He also had a DVD player, and a stereo system. It was truly a boy's room. I did notice, though, that the room was cleaner than James' room ever was.

"Are you going to answer my question?" Edward asked as the door slammed behind him. He looked pissed.

"What question?" I asked, not re-calling him asking me anything.

"Damn it Bella!" He yelled. "Who were you on the phone with? Are you that fucking stupid?"

I know that we had just met, but it seemed like everything Edward did and said turned me on. The fact that he was angry, and yelling at me...my panties moistened instantly, and I felt the rush go through my body at what was to come.

"Oh, that was James."

"You were talking with another guy?" He growled, taking a step towards me.

"Well, yeah," I said as Edward's anger grew.

"I don't want you talking to him."

"He's been in my life for the last two years!" I argued.

"I don't care! I am in your life now. No more talking to him, got it?" He asked me.

"Yeah, whatever." I flopped down on the black leather couch that was facing the window wall.

Just then, my phone started to ring. When I pulled it out and saw that it was my mother, I hit the ignore button. I had bigger problems, like Edward's jealousy, to deal with at the moment. I didn't need to deal with Renee as well.

"Do NOT tell me that was him!" Edward said, moving to stand in front of me.

"No, it was my mother," I said, rolling my eyes.

"And why didn't you answer it?"

"Because, I don't want to talk to her."

"Call her back, now. She's your mother and you only get one," he said sitting next to me.

I kept my eyes trained on my hands in front of me, not answering. He was right in a sense, but I just had too much animosity toward her to try and have a civil conversation right now.

"I guess I get it. You're mad at her for sending you here, but is it so bad?" He asked as a small smile spread across my face.

"No. I mean you're here and if it wasn't for her I wouldn't have met you," I said as he moved closer.

"I'm better than that guy anyway," he smirked, the playful side of him coming out.

"From what I can tell, I may have to agree with you," I agreed.

"I'm better looking."

"Yes," I said as he started to kiss my neck.

"My dick is even bigger than his," he said as if he knew.

"What?" I asked with a laugh.

"My hand is bigger," he said, wrapping his hand around my neck. His hands were bigger, his whole hand almost fit around my neck. How did I not notice that earlier?

"I can't wait to find out," I told him as we started kissing again.

He had no idea how much he just turned me on with that.

"Tonight," he said breaking the kiss. "Now, call your mom and then we are going to have a chat of our own," he said pulling me off of the couch and to his bed instead.

As soon as we were comfortable, lying next to one another with our legs tangled together, I picked up my phone once more and dialed my mother's number. I was still in disbelief that he convinced me to do so. Not even James had that kind of power over me when we were together.
