Chapter One-Hunting

I pulled into the school parking lot. Most of the cars were old so my old truck didn`t stand out to much. “Oh my gosh you must be Isabella Swan right? I`m like Jessica and this is Angela, Mike, Eric, and Tyler. I`m so glad you’re coming here what’s your first class?” A girl about 5 foot 5 has wild, curly, dark brown hair and blue eyes was introducing me to her friends. “Hey please call me Bella not Isabella. Nice to meet yous. I have English first. What do you guys have?” The guys just stared at me. Jessica said she and Mike had English too. The other three had trigonometry.

I walked with Jessica and Mike to class they wanted to know where I lived before and why I left. I told them my life story minus the whole turning into a vampire thing. My next class was History I had that with Eric and Angela. I repeated my story to them before the lunch bell rang.

Eric walked with me to lunch and Angela went to find Jessica and the others. We walked into the cafeteria and everyone stopped and looked at me. Jessica ran over and dragged me to a table. “OMG I haven`t seen people react to someone this way since the Cullen moved there. Speaking of the Cullen’s there they are. They were all adopted by Dr. Cullen and his wife. She can`t have kids.” I looked at them they were gorgeous and pale and they didn`t have the same gross blood smell as the rest of the students. Their vampires. “Does anyone have a phone I can use, mines still in my locker.” I had 12 people push a phone in my face. I grabbed Eric`s simple phone and walked out of the cafeteria and dialled Jacobs number (he gave it to me before he left).

”Hello?” Oh my god he is dead now.”God Jake I hate you, why couldn`t you just tell me they were more like me going here? Did you think it would be funny?”He started laughing.”Yes Bells I thought it would be funny for me not you.”Oh my god he`s dead now. “Jake I changed my mind I think I will kill you next time I see you. I swear I’m going to enjoy draining you of ever last drop of blood.” I closed the phone and went back into ‘eat’ lunch. “OMG do you know what you look like the Cullen’s. Did you know that you`re just like them, graceful and beautiful and pale and your eyes are like the same colour.” Why did she have to point out everything that made us the same? That`s when I heard them talk.”...she has to be one of us look at her...shut up Edward, I’m not kidding......if you don`t I will!” I looked away not wanting to hear anymore. “Hey Jessica what are their names?” She looked at me then started talking really low.”Their names are well, you see the blond that`s Rosalie and she`s with Emmett the one who looks like he could wrestle a bear. Alice is the short one she`s with Jasper the other blond. And then there’s Edward he`s the one who doesn`t have a girl draped over him. He doesn`t date cause I guess no one here is good enough for him. It`s strange but their whole family is like together, and Rosalie and Jasper are twins they kept their last name Hale. The others changed their last name.”

That`s when it hit me and hard.’why won`t he just ask me out I mean look at me I’m perfect .Look at him he’s perfect. Together we’d be perfect.’.....’God I wonder if Bella would go to the dance with me.’.....’Hey cool another vampire hey Eddie maybe you should date her I hate seeing you like this, you need a girl.’ Why the hell can I hear people`s thoughts in my head, and why is Emmett talking to his brother in his head. Oh my god Edward can read minds. Oh my god. What if he can hear mine. Wait why can I hear them? Oh my god I need to stop talking to myself in or out of my head. “I`ll be right back.”

I got up and walked over to the Cullen`s table. “Hello I`m Bella. I have a question for yous the Cullen`s right? OK I know what all of you are and how people like us have special abilities. What is your? And the rest of you what are your? I know it`s not the best way to get to know someone but I also need help find out what mine is.” Alice looked at me and then she squealed “Oh my gosh, hi I’m Alice and I`m psychic.” She was beaming and motioned for me to sit. I sat down.”This is Jasper he can detect and control emotions. That`s Emmett and Rosalie they don`t have a special ability. And last but not least there’s Edward he can read minds, but you know that already.” They were all looking at her.”What I told yous if you don`t tell her I will.” OK then.”Umm see I need help, when I’m close enough to another vampire I can use their ability. I`m not sure if that’s one but also I can block other vampires abilities if I choose.” Alice looked at me “That is so cool, you are so lucky. Hey Edward can you hear her thoughts?” He looked at me and I feel into a daze. I stopped breathing it’s not like I have to anyway. “No, are you blocking me out?” I looked down and removed my shield down and let him in to my mind. ’Hello Edward how are you?'...I started to listen to his thoughts. ’Hello Bella. I`m fine thank you.’ I shut him out again. My head was spinning. Jasper started to laugh I looked at him and started to read his thoughts.Wow she has confused feelings for you Edward. She`s nervous, confused, upset, mad and what`s that love?’I looked at him trying to see how his ability worked. I closed my eyes and focused on everyone feeling then I picked one person and tried to read just theirs then change it. After figured it out I looked at him and sent him as much laughter I could. I used ever happy and funny thought I could come up with and then I pushed it out in waves at him. He started laughing so much he fell out of his chair. Edward looked at me again this time he was smiling.”Now that was cool. You’re lucky you can use his gift against him.” Then he smiled. I looked down and made sure my mind closed from every one. If I could blush my face would have been bright red. Wait I had a question ’Edward what happen if we go in the sun?’ I looked him in the eye`s and waited for him to answer. He did with a picture. It was beautiful the picture was a meadow and he was standing in the middle without a shirt then the sun hit him. He didn`t disappear or catch on fire, he started to sparkle. I closed my mind off before he could know what I thought of him with no shirt. “How will I come to school I can`t walk around sparkling all day and my dad doesn`t know what I am, and I can`t just ditch.” I put my head in my hand. Edward grabbed the other “Hey don`t worry about it. How old are you to still live with your father?”I opened my mind it was easier there talking and more private.’I`m only seventeen I`ve only been this way for 2 months. What about you how old are you really?'He answered with his mind not out loud(A/N Bella’s mind will be in italics and Edwards will be both in italics and underlined from here down)’Your still a new born. You have great control over your thirst. I`m about 106. I`m pretty old.’

He laughed and looked at Alice. She was biting her lip singing ‘I’m a Barbie girl’ in her head.‘Why is she singing?’ ‘She`s hiding something from us. Most likely a vision.’ 'One sec I can see if I can get what she got. Let’s see if I can use her gift.’ I looked at Alice and then closed my eyes closing my mind from Edward just in case. My face went blank and I could see the vision she just had: It`s a room, a bedroom.....my bedroom I`m on my bed kissing someone.....Edward!?! I looked at Alice when my vision was over she was giggling and biting her lip trying to stop. I forced a wave of calm over her and she relaxed a little. ‘Oh my god!’ Edward looked at me “Did you see what she was trying to hide?” I couldn`t talk ‘Yes.’ He grabbed my hand.‘Why didn`t you let me to see? I wanted to know what she saw and you are my only way ’ I bite my lip and looked down.”Alice do your visions always come true? I mean the future isn’t set in stone right.” Alice started giggling “No it`s not set in stone if one of you decides against whatever caused that then it won`t.”

I need to change the mood in here and answer some questions of my own.” Hey do you guys know of a good place to hunt. I mean I know just by your eyes you only hunt animals. Do you know of anywhere I can go tonight, I really need to hunt.” Alice was still beaming “Edward you should take her to that spot you go to hunt. I mean she really needs to hunt cause I can`t see her future so she must be with one of those dogs and I don’t want her to get hurt.” Wait.”Wait what do you mean dogs do you mean.....Jacob damn I might keep my promise of killing him. I need to hunt if I`m going to be within 10 feet of him.”Edward looked at me shocked “And why would you kill him.” God why do people have to ask so many questions? “Cause I can`t stand human blood and he has wolf in him so he smells so good I’m surprised I didn`t kill him the other night” I shook that thought from my head. “Really you don’t like the smell of human blood? I think we should get you hunting before you see him then. Do you have any way to skip out on a period or two before the end of the day I’ll take you.” Was he really asking to take me hunting? That`s like taking a girl to dinner in our world. God I need to calm down he`s just doing it to be nice. I think. “Ok I have gym and biology next then trigonometry. I can skip gym and biology. Where do you want me to meet you?”
We planned on meeting by the forest on the side of the parking lot. After I talked to the Cullen`s I had went back and talked to Jessica who’s thoughts towards me were anything but nice. I couldn`t wait for lunch to end. I walked into class and told my teacher I had an emergency at home and would miss two periods of school. He really didn`t care so I left and headed toward to forest.

Edward was already there when I showed up. “Hello!” I looked at him and bit my lip. He was so beautiful I want to run my hand through his messy bronze hair and kiss his pale lips. I looked away not wanting to give into these emotions. “So where are we going?” He smiled “We can`t go to my favourite place cause we would have to have more time. But I want to know what your favourite animal to drink is.” I started laughing.”Right now it`s wolf. I find it funny that my best friend can turn into a wolf.” Stopped dead in my tracks. I took in a deep breath and smiled at Edward “There are two wolves ahead. One each?” He nodded and we started running. We found them and before long we had killed them and were on our way back. “Hey thanks for coming with me.” I wanted to thank him I had to I would have gone alone but I might not of had the time after school. “Anytime.” We walked back and I headed to trigonometry. When that was done I went to my truck to head home only find Jacob sitting by my side.............
