With yet another dreamless night, I woke up and got down to doing the ordinary human things that have become sort of like a routine to me. I go to the bathroom, pee, brush my teeth, wash my face, get dressed and go and scavenge the kitchen for some breakfast.
The only difference today, is that I don't get to get up at my own free will at my own time, I have to wake up at a certain time to get to school. Something my body has not yet become custom to. Waking up at a time where my body refuses to become conscience.
Waking up to Emmett's face grinning like a all right above you is also not a very pleasant sight. If only he knew how tiresome the human body could get, and just the pleasure of being wrapped up in those bedsheets for a couple more minutes.
I leaned against the window, watching the rain pelt against the glass, and make a pitter patter sound. Its a shame that nobody trusts me to drive, and though I am grateful for there concern, I'm only human, not handicapped.
The green forested flashed by, the car silent as we pulled into the parking lot of Forks high school. It looks duller. Without seeing the fine details, it was merrily another building. It held no history in its bricks or in the surrounding forest. To my new eyesight it as just another building.
"Excited to be back Edward?" Alice chirped, getting out from the drivers seat and coming around to my side where I got out. She is the only other person, other then Bella who I would trust behind the wheel of my Volvo.
"Excited? No, not really. I always had the mind reading to keep me entertained, but now."I sigh. "I guess I'll just have to endure it."
"Well at least you wont have to endure it alone." Alice smirked, nudging her chin in the direction behind me.
I turned, to see nothing but the rest of the parking lot, then as I scanned down the line, I hear the deafening bomb of Bella's truck. The monster came rolling into the parking lot, coming straight for the open pace next to my Volvo. She parked next to us, the once empty space now claimed as Bella's.
It seemed peoples eyes watched the truck. It was hard not to. Never did the trucks noise ever get any less of an attention grabber. A trait I knew Bella despised, any attention on her really she despised.
"Hey, are you okay?" She asked me, as soon as she managed to open the truck door. I was by her side at once, offering a hand to her, to help her out of the my aid she would most likely just fall straight onto the floor.
"Me, I'm fine."I reassure her, taking her bag from her before she could protest I asked a question of my own. "And how are you did you sleep well?" I wondered.
"I'm fine," She began smiling shyly, as a pink tinge rose up on her cheeks.
She only blushes for a reason...
"What?"I asked her, and she avoid eye contact with me, as I ducked down trying to meet her eyes. "Seriously, Bella what is it?"I pried, getting even more curious.
"Nothing. Uh, we should get going to class." She deflected.
Oh I will find out what caused that beautiful blush Miss Swan, don't think you can hide anything from me, I thought as I stole one more glance at her flushed cheeks.
I strolled alongside Bella, enjoying the feeling of our intertwined hands. I'm glad we have a near matching timetable now. We only have to spend history and PE apart. Right now, was maths. Without peoples thoughts to entertain me, I would simply let Bella entertain me. She is far more entertaining then anyone thoughts in this school.
We took our usual seats, the classroom still filling up. Nobody usually stole glances at us, they were always to afraid of my mere presence. But now, it seemed most of the students were taking double glances at me. No one said anything- well nothing I could hear- maybe people just went as perceptive like Bella.
I mean they just thought we were pale, and never once gave our golden eyes a second thought. Probably because when they did in fact meet our eyes they were scared away by there natural instincts.
I'm sort of glad that nobody seems to notice me, not any more then they used to. I'm still just another student. Though surely when I'm sitting with my family later they will notice how I stand out against them. How I once blended in with them and now I'm the ordinary one.
"Well class, we will be divulging into the marvellous method that is Pythagoras again. Lets start by answering these equations on the board to re-freshen out memories you may work with your partner if your stuck." The teacher informed the class before sitting down.
The equations on the chalk board were nothing challenging, I have the answers vaguely in my head merely by glancing at them. though this is the higher program it really doesn't offer much of a challenge to my brain that holds over a hundred years of knowledge.
"Want to take it in turns?" Bella smiled, opening up a fresh page in her notebook.
"Of course."I grinned. It was our little joke. From that day in biology where we would pass backwards and forwards the stethoscope. Taking turns just seemed to be our thing.
We completed the sheet in no time, Bella not struggling at all, and me simply jotting down useless working out to make time go by faster. We had some time left so I decided to pry what caused her to blush this morning. Even if she didnt tell me, it was a grantee that she would blush again.
"So this morning, what were you thinking about?" I asked her straight forward.
Her eyes widened before, she bit down on her lip and used her hair as a curtain.
" Carlisle's find anything out about the gene?" She questioned, trying to change the subject.
I'm not going down that easy love... "No nothing yet. So this morning, it must have been something worthwhile to make you blush like that." I persisted, leaning my head to the side to try and see her face.
Her eyes were screwed shut, her lip tugging on her bottom lip, and her cheeks flushed.
"I can't tell you."
"You can't tell me our you wont tell me?"I asked her.
"Edward!" She sighed, her hands covering her face.
"Bella," I teased, peeling her hands away from her face, and turning her to me. Her eyes still shut and shielding any emotion on her face. "Come on, just tell me."
"No, I can't right now." She said, finally opening her eyes.
"Okay, do you promise to tell me later?" I asked her, my eyebrows raised.
She hesitated.
"Fine, later." She agreed, not looking very excited by the promise.
Hearing peoples thoughts was much more of a life changer then I thought. Not being able to hear what people were thinking was the most excruciating thing. If having Bella's mind blocked from me wasn't enough having everyone's was the most mind numbing experience. With my family I have gotten used to it, being stuck with them nearly twenty four seven. Here at school, I couldn't understand peoples glances towards me, or what people generally thought.
I sat in each class, finding myself either trying to sneak notes or whispers to Bella, or doodling in my notebook. I even ended up creating something of a masterpiece in the back of my note book. A very detailed mountain lion.
Even now its only lunch. My human body and brain is really going to have to adapt fast to this routine before it drives me crazy. At least I have Bella to guide me along the way. She doesn't seem to notice my inner depressive thoughts, and I'm glad she is stuck in her own thoughts today.
She is very observant, and if she wasn't already occupied I'm sure she could see something was wrong with me.
I scanned the food, my fingers grasping the red tray, and my lip caught in-between my teeth. I debated over the choices, obviously annoying the line with the time I was taking to decide. They had something in some kind of sauce, and it did not look appetising. the Pizza how ever...My stomach rumbled just looking at it.
I guess I'll be trying Pizza today.
I selected my meal, getting fries along with it and a can of coke to go with. I followed Bella, going ahead of her to clear the way. If there were any shoes sticking out or stray bags on the floor, she would be the person to trip over them.
We joined my family, settling back in with my back facing the crowd. I usually didnt mind this because I could see through peoples minds, but now I dont even know if someone is looking this way.
"Edward you didn't have to get food, you could have just ate ours." Rosalie pointed out like I was an idiot.
"That would be a bit suspicious wouldn't it? If I ate your lunch for you and you ate nothing at all?" I said, picking up a fry and popping it into my mouth.
Crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle.
"I guess so." She shrugged, looking at her plate is disgust.
I chowed down, only now realising how Bella must feel eating around us before. My family eyes watching me as I chewed my way though the little pile of French fries. It made me a little self conscience knowing the could hear my every bite and every time I swallowed. I almost want to apologise to Bella for being so rude.
"Is this your first time eating Pizza?" Bella questions as I pick up the slice.
I node, twisting it around in my hand, mesmerizing the melted chesse and dough.
"I remember when I dared you to eat some before, you didnt really like that very much." She reminded me.
When your taste buds are purely attracted to blood anything other then blood does not taste appealing. Also the digestive system doesn't really take well to anything that is not in liquid form.
"Well, lets see what I've been missing out on."I mumbled, taking a bite straight off the tip.
I chewed feeling the cheese spread around in my mouth and the dough breaking down. There were a few different flavours, the most prominent being a sweet kind of flavour. I think it was the tomato sauce, and of course the cheese. It was nice, I dont see why most of the humans thought of it a prison food. It tasted good.
"I can see myself becoming addicted to pizza." I muttered around another bite.
"Just wait until you add some toppings." Bella grins.
Toppings...adding even more flavours to this would truly make it addictive.
"Bella are you okay?" Jasper asked in concern.
