Sorry, guys, but I've been busy with dance practice lately (my legs are so sore I can barely walk!) and I haven't had much time to update, so y'all are probably going to have to get used to short chapters.

Disclaimer: I don't own Twilight or Bob the Builder (you'll see what I'm talking about)

Bella's POV

"So," I said once we got in the car to break the awkward silence. "Alice said you guys think I'm not human."

"Of course Alice told you that," Edward snorted, but didn't continue.

"Is it true?" I prodded. He just shrugged in reply.

I fought the urge to get upset at his stubbornness and instead just asked him another question. "What do you think I am?"

"I'm not so sure. You see, I know you can't be a vampire because you have blood flowing through your system and I saw you trip over that cord in the halls the other day. We could never be that clumsy even if we tried."

"Thanks," I said sarcastically. "So, what are the other options?"

"I don't know. You couldn't be a werewolf either because you don't smell like one. You don't smell like a human, either, though. It's a strange smell- nothing like I've ever experienced."

"Once again, thanks," I told him. "But just so you know, I am a human."

"That's the most confusing part- Alice told me that she can tell that you honestly believe you're human. She can see you in her visions, but-"

"Visions?" I asked.

He nodded. "Some vampires have special powers. Alice is psychic, Jasper has this power over emotions, and I read minds, but other than that, the rest of the family is normal. Well, as normal as a vampire can be." I nodded, finally understanding why Jasper had looked so sympathetic when I ran off during lunch and how Alice had known what I was going to say before I said it. Wait, but if Edward could read minds…

"You mean you've been listening to every single thought that I've thought when I was around you?" I asked, trying to control my anger. How could he do such a thing? It was an invasion of privacy! Wait, if he could read minds, then he was listening to me right now. You're such a jerk, Edward! Stop listening to my thoughts. If you don't stop, I'll torture you by singing a bunch of annoying little kid songs in my head. Okay, let's get started! Bob the Builder! Can we fix it? Bob the Builder! Yes we-

"No, I haven't," he interrupted my thoughts. "I can read everyone's mind except for yours and it's driving me crazy."

"Oh," I muttered, feeling like an idiot. Nice one, Bella. At least no one else knew that I was an idiot. "So, I smell weird and you can't read my thoughts. Is something wrong with me?"

"I've been wondering the same thing," he joked. "But it seriously makes me wonder why you're so different. That's why I came over to your house yesterday- to find out some answers."

"Okay," I replied, nodding as I began to understand. "You know, Alice mentioned earlier something about seeing me in some of her visions. What was I doing?"

"I don't really know," he said, suddenly focusing a lot more on the road in front of him.

"But you read minds! Shouldn't you be able to tell what they were about?"

"Yeah, but they're not important."

"But she said I would be close to your family soon. What did she mean by that?" He turned on the radio instead of answering my question. I wanted to ask him again, but it was obvious that he wasn't going to answer anytime soon. Then I realized what song was playing.

"Clair de Lune. I love this song," I told him, causing him to snap his head around to look at me.

"You like classical music?" he asked.

"Whoa! Eyes on the road, Edward! You're going to get us killed! Or me, at least. I guess you can't be killed."

He chuckled. "Trust me, we'll be fine." He sped up so that he was going over a hundred miles an hour. I gripped my seatbelt tightly and held on, but decided not to complain. Edward seemed to do things his own way and I doubted he would slow down just because I asked. Before I knew it, we were in front of my house.

"Wow," I muttered. "That was fast."

"All of us drive like that," he told me. "I guess it just comes with being immortal. You'll get used to it."

I nodded. Then the meaning of his words hit me- was he saying that we would start hanging out? I was about to ask, but he was already talking.

"I'll see you tomorrow, Bella," he said. I realized that that was the first time I had heard him say my name- not Isabella, but Bella. A strange feeling crept through me, but I pushed it down before I could figure out what it was.

"Okay," I said as I reached for the door handle, but he was already outside opening it for me. Wow. He'd gone from a complete jerk that had been glaring and ignoring me to a gentleman all in one day. Interesting.

"Thanks," I muttered as I got out. "Goodnight, Edward." I faintly heard him say 'goodnight' behind me as I walked up the porch and went inside. Charlie had fallen asleep on the couch watching a baseball game and I turned the TV off before walking upstairs. As soon as I got to my room, I sighed and collapsed on my bed. What a strange day it had been.

So, what do you think? Should I bore you with details of how Edward and Bella take their time to get together or just hurry up so she can turn into a wolf already? Review and let me know! Thanks! :D
