A/N – Thanks a lot of all the reviews! Enjoy reading!
Unfortunately Twilight doesn't belong to me, I just messing around with the characters.
CHAPTER 3
Entering my room I got to know that I smelled like freesias and lavender. The scent covered everything…why hadn't I noticed it before?
I wanted to go out…but if I ran into Mrs. Black again, only God knows what will happen…
I looked at my window…if I was really invincible…jumping from the 1st floor wouldn't hurt…
Without any hesitation, I opened it and jumped. It took one eighth of second to do so, but I could see everything as if it was on slow motion! Even the fall itself, which should have left my bones broken, didn't hurt at all…it just sounded like a low 'thud'.
The forest covered the whole of my backyard. And without looking back, I ran. The forest was magical. I let go of myself and hunted. Even though I wasn't thirsty, I needed to be prepared for the worst.
The bear wasn't much of a match, but I had got the hang of it now. I didn't spoil my clothes, except for the two drops of blood. Wandering around, I thought, why would anyone turn me into a vampire? I didn't even believe in the supernatural, well, before I was turned. Did it mean that the werewolves and zombies existed too?
Confused, I walked back home…
~x~
I didn't stop when I reached my home. I decided to take a ride around the town. Starting the ignition, I backed and drove off towards the diner.
Since I didn't get tired anymore, maybe I could do a 4-hour shift on weekdays? Gosh! Why was I finding my truck so slow? Anyway, I wouldn't have to care for the food bills anymore, so I could save for a new car. The Chevy had served me for long…maybe it was time for its retirement.
I was so caught up with my inner rambling, that I realized that I didn't have to look to roads frequently. I could hear the cars long before they were supposed to cross my path. I guess being a vampire was pretty cool!
Reaching the diner 13 minutes 34 seconds later (my inner vampire clock would never shut up, I guess) I saw that in the hurry of leaving home, I had reached a little early than expected…
Tyler Newton was the owner of the diner. He was a friendly boss and expected his son, Mike Newton, to take over as soon as he finished high school. This plan was perfect, according to him, but it was a little flawed.
Mike Newton was a brat. And I was quite sure that if he became the boss, everyone including me, would quit.
"How's our little Bella today?" he greeted me with a huge smile on his face as if I was his favorite person on this earth.
"Good Evening Mr. Newton! Sorry, I had a little flu…I couldn't come. I should have called ahead" I lied easily. He smelt like grass and apples.
"Oh! Sweetie! Don't worry about it. Are you feeling good now?" why was everyone so concerned about me?
"I'm fine, I just wanted a little favor…can I please do 4-hour shifts on weekdays?" I put on my puppy-dog face.
He looked a little dazzled, "Huh? Oh…yeah sure! But why? Are you short of money? I can always increase your pay…"
"No! Not at all! It's just that I don't have anything to do, these days. I thought that I could help here instead…"
"Yeah…that won't be problem…you are always welcome here…Come on now! Get to work!" he always said that when he finished with a conversation…
I smiled and went to the little locker room at the back. Opening my locker, I grabbed a hair band and tied my hair back, touched the picture of Renée and Charlie and headed back out.
Remembering to work at a slow human's pace, I took out my apron from the shelf under the counter and put it on.
~x~
Work was slow. I got a lot of compliments on my 'new contacts'. I guess the façade was working…
Tomorrow would I start school again…
A/N – Updates will be once or twice a week.
