I promise! And I'm sorry this isn't very long. :(
Edward POV
Venom. She was the most beautiful yet deadliest being on earth. And I wanted her, like nothing I'd ever had before. She had an elegance I could not even think about achieving and secrets buried so deep that even they would never be parted from her.
"Edward!" I was jerked out of my thoughts by Alice who grabbed the wheel and made me pull aside. She got out of the car and came over to my side, "Move over, Eddie, you're going to crash if you keep going like that. I'll drive." I climbed over to the passenger seat, giving her an evil look. She ignored it, closing the door and revving the engine. A smirk came onto her face as she stepped on the gas, shooting forwards. Emmett leant forwards, "So, pixie, what's the girl look like?"
Alice avoided a white car as she changed to the fast lane, "She's pretty. Very pretty. She has dark brown hair and she's kind of average height, Edward's age." She swerved around a blue Volvo car which honked loudly at her and carried on, "Obviously, burgundy eyes. You and Rosalie should go down to the club sometime."
"And what's the thing with the creepy girl you guys keep going on about?" Emmett asked again, this time cracking his knuckles, "Can I go freak her out? You said she was only thirteen or something." Rosalie slapped his shoulder, "Em!" Emmett shrugged, grinning, "Aww, Rosie, I haven't had that much fun in ages!"
"Go freak out all the kids in high school then." Jasper rolled his eyes, "We're going to get there soon enough." It was the same old thing. Whenever we got to a school it was always stares. It took a while for the message to get to them that we weren't interested. Emmett was thinking of ways to make a grand entry.
"Emmett, it's not as if you need it." I muttered. Emmett paused a second, "True…but come on Eddie, it's fun!" I sat back in my seat, "Whatever." I watched the scenery fly by, my thoughts on one vampire alone. Venom. I wondered what to do for the date. I had ideas but nothing seemed to fit.
"Edward. Whatever you're thinking of stop." Jasper grumbled, "You're making me nervous." He exchanged looks with Alice. Alice smiled before turning around to face us, "We'll be there in a couple of minutes."
Angela POV (she's going to be important later on.)
It was just another ordinary day at West End London high school; a tiny school on the outskirts of London. My school. It was a school where gossip would take about an hour to travel and there were no secrets in truth. It jumped at any news.
"Angey! Hey!" Jessica smiled, jogging over. She was wearing a new set of clothes again; white jeans and a dark blue laced top with a cream jacket on top. She nodded over to a group of guys, "So did you get Kyle to give you a lift again?" I nodded, "Yeah, I told him he didn't have to. It's close enough to walk."
"Angela, you know he's interested." Jessica wheedled, perching on the stone wall next to me. I rolled my eyes, "And you know I'm not. I don't want to lead him on." I snapped close the book I had been reading, "How was your weekend? We've got another three or four weeks till the Christmas holidays." I smiled at the thought. Jessica grinned, "It was good. Same old really, hey Chris!" Chris twisted around from where he was locking his car and chuckled, "Hey beautiful." He sauntered over and kissed her lightly on her lips. That was Chris, long term boyfriend of Jessica in upper sixth. The year above us.
"Hi Angela." He gave me a quick smile, "How was your weekend? Has Kyle still not got around to asking you out?" I shook my head, "But I don't…oh my god." Entering the car park was a sleek silver car. It swerved around the corner and backed into the parking space perfectly. Jessica stared, her hand still entwined with Chris.
The first person to step out was a guy with messy bronze hair. He had pale white skin and was well dressed. He bent down and muttered something to someone in the car and came back up with a smirk holding a set of car keys. The other door opened and a shorter girl with spiky bounced out. She too had pale skin and she turned her head towards the school with a sunny smile that pretty much blinded every single male in the school. She could be a top model with her looks.
"Oh my god, she cannot be for real." Jessica mumbled as another girl stepped out and shook her head so her blond curls caught what light there was. I think that half the school's hearts just stopped beating and I definitely felt my self-esteem drop a couple of notches. Seconds later a taller muscular man stepped out and wrapped an arm possessively around her waist, giving her a peck on the lips. Jessica mumbled to me in her typical fashion, "Go figure that those two are together."
The final guy was more average looking although still stunning but almost immediately his hand was entwined with the shorter girl and his eyes scanning the school with disinterest. I could almost feel their disgust at the school and felt somewhat annoyed. If they didn't like the school, they shouldn't have come. As if I had said it directly to them, the man with bronze hair turned his head and stared directly at me. A smirk played on his lips as he mumbled something to the others who turned to look at me. I shivered, catching sight of their golden eyes and hopped off the brick wall, breaking the spell.
"I'm going to go in, Jess." I mumbled, hugging my books to my chest and stumbling up the steps. There was something not quite right about the new kids. I couldn't quite put my finger on it though.
Alice POV
I watched as the girl Edward had pointed out turned away and tripped up the stairs into the school. She paused at the top step and turned once to look back at us before walking into school. I pursed my lips, glancing over at Edward.
She's going to be involved with us at one point.
Edward shrugged, his thoughts elsewhere. I could feel laughter bubbling up as I pulled Jasper forwards, "So stick to the usual, let's not talk to any of them? Please can I talk to the girl…pretty please?" Edward shook his head, "You know the rules…if we talk then they'll probably end up finding out." I pouted, "Fine. Jasper, come on." He let go of my hand and placed it around my waist before we headed towards the school.
The school was different to say the least. I'd never been in one before. Random pictures were hung up on the wall and the students, from the tiny year 7s to the sixth form all finding their way easily around the school, disappearing like sand through the fingers.
"Uh, hi…I was wondering whether you needed some help to find your way around?" A girl appeared, twisting a piece of hair around her finger. I felt Jasper tighten his grip around my waist and smiled, squeezing his hand reassuringly, "Sure, thanks." The girl began heading down the corridor, her hips swinging slightly. I saw Edward pinch the bridge of his noise out of the corner of my eye.
This was going to be one interesting day.
By the end of the day, I didn't have to be a mind reader to see that Edward was that close to snapping. He came stalking out of the building, a couple of girls following him, and practically ran over to us and climbed inside the car, fuming.
"You saw this coming, didn't you?" He demanded as he reversed out the parking space. I shrugged, raising an eyebrow, "And if I did?" He scowled as he drove the car out of the parking lot, "I had to put up with them for the whole day."
"Fan girls? How come I didn't get any? Ow! I was joking!" Emmett yelled from the back seat after Rosalie delivered a sharp smack to his shoulder. She rolled her eyes, "Sure, whatever. So…do we get to come to the club and check it out?"
"No." Edward snapped. I smirked, "Yes, you can actually." Edward sent me a death glare as he swerved into our driveway, pulling the car to an abrupt stop. He climbed out the car, disappearing as quickly as he could into the house.
"Don't worry about him." I said into the silence brightly, "He's just stressing."
