Okay, I want to dedicate this chapter to everyone who joined my spot! ^_^ Thanks so much! And now... let the drama unfold...
*Edward's POV*
For the rest of the lunch hour, I watched her. She seemed to be in deep thought about something, and it was killing me not knowing what it was.
But eventually, the bell rang, and it was time for my next class.
*Bella's POV*
So. . . Biology II is it?
I was studying my class schedule while walking down the almost-desolant hall.
I wasn't paying attention at all, and I unexpectedly bumped into someone.
"Oh, sorry. . ." I mumbled, and then I smelled that distinct sweet scent - a vampire.
I just bumped into a vampire. Could my luck get any worse?
I looked up, and met the eyes of Alice Cullen.
She smiled at me, but there was a confused look in her eyes.
"It's okay," she said in a perky, high-soprano voice. "You're Isabella Swan right?"
"Just Bella." I quickly answered, and she smiled amusingly.
"I'm Alice Cullen," she said, and she held out her hand.
I shook her hand, but when I touched her pale white hand. . . something oddly familiar passed between us, and I was suddenly hit with recognition. Like I knew her from somewhere. . .
Alice quickly let go of my hand as if it had shocked her, she was completely stunned - she felt the same thing I had felt.
"See you later. . . Bella," she said slowly, giving me a small smile.
"Yeah. . ." I murmured, but she was already walking away.
What was that just now? She seems so familiar. . . but when and where have I seen her? Most importantly, how do I know Alice?
I brushed aside the subject, for now, and hurried to class.
And would luck or fate ever be on my side? I smelled the air, yep. There's definitely a vampire in my next class.
So, taking a deep breath, I entered the classroom.
*Edward's POV*
I was seated at my Biology table waiting for Mr. Banner when I smelled a very distinct scent. A scent I had never encountered before, and it was standing outside the classroom door, and it was very deadly - I could feel it.
I tensed, waiting and ready.
But then the door opened and in came Bella Swan. Did I have the deadly scent wrong? She was human, so how could she be possibly deadly?
And then I realized that the only empty available was the one beside me. I quickly moved my things to make room for her as she crossed the room for her as she crossed the room and sat hesitantly down beside me.
"Hello," I said politely, and I noticed several things at that moment. One was that the deadly, unknown scent I had smelled earlier was now replaced with a vivid, eccentric smell of lavender. . .or maybe freesia.
Two, was that I could not smell her human scent, and even more so: her blood. I could not pick up a single trace of smell from it. . . Though I could plainly see the blood pumping under her pale, transculent-like skin, and hear her heart beat. . . Very strange. Was she human at all?
And then again, I wished I could read her mind. . . but why can't I?
"Hi," she said back, and turned to face the front even though Mr. Banner wasn't in here yet.
"You're. . . Bella Swan, right? I'm Edward Cullen, it is a pleasure to meet you." I said politely, trying to make her feel at ease.
She turned her head to me in one quick motion that momentarily shocked me. When I met her mysterious brown eyes, I found that their was shock in them too.
"Y-yeah," she stammered, but regained her composure. "It's nice to meet you too. I ran into your sister earlier," she said suddenly, blushing a deep red that did nothing to my predator side.
"Which one would that be?" I asked, smiling slightly at how unpredictable she was, of course that could be because she's the only one I can't read.
"Alice," she replied, her eyes becoming faraway.
"Oh." Was all I could say before Mr.Banner came running in, and the bell rang for class to begin.
What is that distant look in her eyes? What had happened between her and Alice?
Futively, I focused, and searched for my sister's mind. When I found it, I was immediately appalled by what she was thinking.
I know I know her! But from where? Does she know me? Alice's thoughts were a complete jumble as she searched not only the future, but her forgotten past.
Bella and Alice know each other? How can that be?
Alice began thinking of other things just as Mr. Banner assigned classwork.
When I was finished with the assignment, I still had half an hour to kill.
Shockingly, I noticed Bella was done as well. She was quietly scribbling down something on a sketch book, how long has she been done?
I leaned over a little just to glimpse at what she might be doing, curiosity taking over my actions.
And what I saw was amazing.
I know, you all must have a lot of questions, but all will be answered in time...just keep reading, plz! ^_^
