Chapter 2:

That night I read through most of the book. So I could one step ahead of the story. I knew that Edward would be visiting the Tanya and her coven in the Denali. So he wouldn’t be in school for a few days. Great , so what am I gonna do for the next few days? I had a report to finish but I needed a book from the school library for that. In the end I let sleep take me.

I was spinning, feeling sick. Then I saw something bright. A bright figure. A ghost! I couldn’t see who it was. The only thing I could see were a pair of wide penetrating chocolate brown eyes. Not blinking. Just staring at me. The figure then screeched in a painful tone “Help Me Libby. SAVE ME!!!”

It was then when I woke up, sweaty and clammy from the dream. I’m usually not the type to remember dreams but this one freaked me out so much that I stuck with me.

The next few days at school went fast. Edward wasn’t there. Just as the book said. I found my job at mike’s shop interesting, I worked hard and done my best (which seemed to please Mrs.Newton). Whenever I didn’t have work or homework to do, I would hang out (on my own) at the ice rink in Port Angeles or try to sort my new flat out, adding my own personal touches.

The day that Edward would return to school arrived. A part of me felt nervous and excited at the same time, but then my conscience took over with the thought of Bella, who was lost and probably stuck in the ‘Future’. the day went fast, as usual . Then finally the bell rang for biology. This is stupid. I’ve been excited about going to any of my lessons before. Mind you, not many people have had the chance to sit next to Edward -drop dead gorgeous- Cullen. Insane as it was , this was going to be one of the best moments of my life… Hopefully.

I got to the class first taking my now ‘usual’ seat. Bella’s seat. Class wasn’t going to start for a while so I took out my Tess Of The D’Urbervilles book and for a few brief moments, I let myself forget about Edward Cullen and began to let my head fill with Tess’ disastrous life. My friends back in London always wondered why I liked this book. And I always said to them “Even though what happens to her is sad , she always lived in hope of finding happiness for herself others until the day she died”. I had just got up to the happiest bit of the story -Tess and Angel’s Wedding- when I heard the chair next to me move. I turned my head and there he was.
