chapter 3.

I'm a beast. ;D

I then walked to class with the other students, and I asked myself what had I done to offend him, and to cause his death stares directed at me? 

I walked into the already full classroom and sat down at the empty table the teacher motioned towards. The teacher began the lecture about something I knew already, the door flew open, and to my dismay, Edward walked in. He looked at me, and I flinched. Guess who was my partner for the rest of the year? I internally groaned. 

"You're Bella?" he asked in an accusing, more than questioning tone. 

"Yes." I said with as much strength in my voice as I could put. 

"I'm Edward. Cullen." his voice held so much hatred, I wanted to yell at him and ask him why he seemed to want me dead. 

I longed for the end of this class, for the end of the whole day so then I could just lie in bed and do what I so desperately needed, to let it all out in the form of tears. 

The last few classes weren't too bad after that, they went much quicker. After school finally ended, I walked with a fast pace to my truck as I heard two people arguing nearby. 

"She didn't know what did you expect?" a female's voice asked. 

"Well its not what she did with him as much as it is what she does to me... Its intoxicating. And I can't hear..." I got into my truck and started it. 

The people talking were Edward and Alice, as I suspected. They stopped suddenly and turned to look at me in my truck. Alice shot me a worried look, and he the same old glare, because it was doing that exactly, getting old already. 

I was just as confused as I was yesterday, maybe even more. The next day went by the same way, then the week also did, and the next. So on. I had gotten settled quite easily, and nothing was truly different between 2 given days.

And everynight, he was in my dreams, or nightmares. 

Last night, he seemed to just walk with me into a beautiful field of flowers, an eerie dream haunting me for the rest of the day. 

The next, I stood by my truck. It had been raining and I was extra careful driving to school. I was searching for a book I had borrowed from the library when I dropped it. As I bent to pick it up, I heard sliding of tires. I looked up and a van was coming towards me, in slow motion. I closed my eyes and hoped I was dreaming as suddenly I felt myself pulled out of the impact between my truck and the van. I open my eyes quickly to see Edward Cullen looking down at me while holding me and with one hand on the van, the dent his hand caused on it.

He put me down as people who had seen ran towards me. I rode in the ambulance with the driver of the van, Tyler to the hospital, I instantly thought of Carlisle and my heart sped up.... 

"Does this hurt, Bella?" he asked In a professional tone. 

"Its fi-." I felt pain, "Oh. That hurts there." I told him.

"Ahh. You are very lucky to be alive, Ms. Swan," he said to me while staring into my eyes. I stared back at his big, honey eyes and said, "Lucky your son was there, he saved me." he looked panicked for a split second and agreed, "Is that so? Well then yes I guess so. Lucky, hmm." 

I got closer to him, when our lips were to touch, there was an angry knock. 

I sighed as Carlisle composed himself, and Edward came in. 

"Your father is here, Bella." he said, he was trying to control his anger, perhaps around Carlisle. 

I went out of the small room to the waiting room. 

"what is going on Carlisle? I cannot allow you to do this to Esme. I simply cannot!" Edward hissed at him, when I was finally out the door.

Carlisle must have whispered something, because then Edward said, "Actually Carlisle, I do. Because I feel the exact same way." I walked away then, because I did not want them to open the door and find me there. I found Charlie as he stood up quickly. 

"Bella! Are you okay? What did Dr. Cullen say?" 

"I'm perfectly fine, no worries." 

"Okay, I need to see him though." he said, like he didn't believe me. My voice it deceived my words i guess.

Edward and Carlisle walked toward us and Charlie exchanged a few words with Carlisle as Edward and I stood next to them, holding eye contact. 

He looked so desperate for control over himself, and I also was trying hard for composure. 

We left, Charlie told me I didn't have to go to school the next day and I laid on the couch next to him. 

I awoke on my bed, Charlie had carried me there I was guessing. Sunlight came through my window and I was slightly disoriented as to where I was. 

I pushed play on the CD player that had a CD that Renee's friend made for me, like a going away present or something. My favorite melody, "Clair de Lune" came on, and I relaxed. 

I heard someone on the stairs, Charlie of course and got up in bed. 

"Morning Bells, how you feeling?" he asked when he walked in.

"Okay, I think I want to go to school though." 

"Well you'd be late now, its 8." 

"Oh yeah, hum. I guess ill just stay here and get more sleep." I said tiredly. 

"How'd you get in bed without me noticing?" he asked. 

"I thought.. You'd carry me here?" 

"No bells, you were too peaceful. Seems you're a sleepwalker, eh?" he joked. 

"I guess." as I lulled to sleep, the song comind to an end. 

I had a strange dream, I awoke in it, and Edward was standing there, in the sunlight, he was beautiful. He had diamonds, all over his face it seemed. I was awed, but then I awoke. 

The day went on quickly it seemed. Jessica called me later and asked If I was okay. The next day I was faced with going to school. Great.
