Bella grimaced as she looked outside snow and ice. Charlie had already left for work Bella took her time in no hurry to get on the slippery surface outside. She had trouble walking on a dry surface, ice would be twice as difficult. Unable to delay anymore Bella made her way outside. She slid, but didn't actually fall which was a surprise to her. She cranked up her noisy truck and turned on the heater. It felt nice but now the problem of driving to school. Bella thought of herself as a careful driver, but even so ice would be a bit of a problem. Bella eased out of the driveway carefully. And was surprised to find it wasn't to bad.
Bella had made it to school safely. Bella got out of her truck a normal day of school besides the snow and ice that appeared to melting a little. Something caught her eye on her back wheel. Bella bent over to see it was snow chain an overwhelming emotion came over her. Who knew how early Charlie had gotten up to put them on to make sure she had a save drive to school.
Several things happened at once, one she saw Edward Cullen shock across his face a few cars down, a blue van was coming for her, everything was happen to fast for her to pick up every detail. She couldn't get out of the way fast enough the van was going to hit her.

[[you're such a sweetie <3 =] ]]
Sweet. High school again. Edward seriously didn't know how he managed to survive through all of those years of taking high school over and over again - it was pure torture. Boring. He didn't understand how Alice managed to seem so happy everyday when they were living such misarable lives. Sighing, he got into the car and waited for the four others to come out as well. They came out in pairs, as they always were, Alice and Jasper, arm in arm, and Rosalie and Emmett. Sometimes it became rather lonely to see all the couples surrounding him but he didn't really care that much. His time would come as well, that was what Esme always told him, yet until now nobody had really appealed to him. Except from one and she was human. Bella Swan.
He rolled his eyes as the four others got into his car. Alice called shotgun and sat in the front seat with him, she was one to that most the times especially since Bella Swan had joined Forks Hihgh and she had her visions about her. He looked at her when she seemed to recall that vision and snarled at her "Alice, stop" He hissed, pressing the gas pedal down, as he raced to Forks High.
It wasn't that long of a ride, when your drove like a maniac, as many would say it was, you got to your destination pretty quickly. He parked in their normal spot and was the first to get out of the car - Alice was driving him nuts with her thought, he had to get away. His eyes scanned the place and fell on one very familiar girl. No other then Bella Swan, of course. He got caught up in her, she didn't seem to notice him much. Slowly he leaned up against his car, again getting caught in wondering why he couldn't read her.
A change of events - Before he could manage to notice he was hearing Alice screaming at him, mentally of course, and his eyes darted to the blue van. Shock painted his face and the only thing he could think at the moment was just NOT her. In one quick leap he was across the lot, knocking Bella down on the cold ground. With an arm around her waist his eyes darted up to the van again as he smashed his hand into the side of it, stoping it just before it would have crushed both him and Bella.

[[Aw, thanks]]
Bella didn't know what had happened one second a van was about to hit her and the next Edward had grabbed her and stopped the van. Bella looked at Edward he was a few cars down how did he get over here so fast. How did he stop the van? There was something more about Edward Cullen and it was just the way he acted it, it was just what she had witnessed. "How did you get over here?" Bella demanded looking at Edward. He was not going talk himself out of this he might have before, but she wasn't going to let that happen again. She was going to find out the truth about Edward.
Bella could all the sudden hear the commotion everyone was yelling. She heard someone yell get Tyler out of the van. But she wasn't to concerned about it she was fine, what bothered her was Edward. She didn't know what to make out of what he had done, how he had done it. There was something more than just being a normal human being able to stop vans and appear from thin air. Though she had noticed that before one second she was alone and the next he was right their beside her.

Edward brought his eyes from the van to Bella. Shock, worry, wonder, confusion, painted the face of the young girl, who was lying in his arms on the cold ground, as she stared up at him. He froze, not knowing what to do now. She had witnessed something nobody had ever witnessed. She was bound to get suspicious now, because seriously, wich human would be able to get to one so fast, when being several feet away from the person, not to talk about stopping a van from crushing the person with it's bare hands. Unnatural. Sick. Weird. Call it what you wanted, it was not normal and she knew that all to well.
What had he been supposed to do? Let the van crush her? He couldn't do that, he wasn't able to do that. He wouldn't have let it crush her, he couldn't have done that. He looked down at her when she asked of him how he had gotten over to her so quickly "You shouldn't talk Bella, I think you hit your head" He said, pulling slightly away from her though still holding on to her,. On one hand, his throat was burning like a thousand suns and he wanted to let her, but on the other hand he didn't because then she would be lying on the cold ground.
He heard the shouts around them. Most of them were calling Bella's name and among them he could hear Mike's voice the best. He would probably have a difficult time speaking tomorrow if he continued like that. Looking down at Bella "Are you alright? Did you get hurt?" He asked of her, almost in a whisper.

"I didn't hit my head!" Bella snapped at Edward. She knew he was trying to get out of answering her question, she knew something was wrong, something different, strange with Edward. She was going to get an answer no normal human could have done what she had. She could hear the voices of the others, but they seemed to be in the background. She could even hear them trying to move the van to get to them, but this was her last concern. Her attention was focused on Edward.
"I'm fine," Bella said in the same tone as before. "You were by your car, how did you get over here?" Bella asked again wanting an answer. Not only did he get over, but he stopped a moving van. He was fast and strong, inhumanly so. It was not possible, what kind of explanation could she even be given?

He was afraid of her stubborness. God freaking damn it, she had just nearly been hit by a van couldn't she act normal, for once, and be worked up about that instead of wondering how he had gotten to her so quickly and how he had stopped the van? This was not good, she seemed to wanting to get some answerd and he couldn't blame her. This was an abnormal thing, nothing like this must have ever happened before. "I think you did, for you're hallucinating" He snapped back at her.
He looked down at her. He could to nothing but deny and come up with some really good lie. He doubted he could pull it off though, she knew what she had seen, obviously "I was standing right next to you, Bella" He said, staring down at her, as he pulled even further away from her. He still had his arm around her, still not wanting for her to lie on the ground. this was bad, very bad.

"No," Bella responded to Edward. She was right she knew she was. He wasn't going to be able to avoid this. He had to give her some kind of answer. Bella heard everyone moving the van she would only have a couple minutes before they reached them. "Will you explain everything later?" Bella demanded just before the van was moved.
Bella was completely humiliated when they put a neck brace on her and put her in the ambulance. Bella sighed as she heard and saw her father worrying about demanding what happened. Bella looked at Edward's family none of them showed an ounce of concern for their brother. They ranged from disapproval to furious. That was strange it was like they didn't even care if their brother was even hurt. But maybe it wasn't possible for that to happen not after she saw him stop a van. What were the Cullen's there was something more than just being human. Something much stronger and faster because she knew he was by his car their was no possible that a some normal human could have gotten their as quickly as he did.

He looked up as the van was moved and then down at Bella "Yes, fine!" He said, angrily. He didn't know what he could do else, but he wasn't mad at her. He was mad at himself for not knowing what to do now. And he was mad at her for being so stubborn, god damn it, how was he supposed to live among her now when she was getting suspicious. This wasn't good and to add to it all his siblings weren't all that pleased with him.
When they offered him to put a neck brace on him a well, he rejected the offer and told them he would be just fine. He would, he was made out of immortality. Bella, on the other hand, was human and they did put a neck brace on her. She looked humilliated and it was quite ammusing to watch. They brought her into the ambulance and he as well - only he rode up front, in the car, and Bella in the back. He was sure he knew how that made her feel and that, to him, was even more ammusing.

[[Since we don't have anyone to play Tyler maybe we can make her have the room to herself make a little different from the book too.]]
Bella was going to make sure Edward did explain everything later. Bella was taken to get her x-rays done and she kept telling them she was fine. They sent her to a room she was the only one in it. She had seen Tyler he looked a whole lot worse than she did he had tried to apologizes, but they were headed in two different directions. She had tried to tell him it was okay she was fine and he would get better. But she didn't know if he had heard her or not.
Bella through her neck brace on the floor when the nurse left her. She crossed her arms waiting for the doctor to see her so she could leave. She was tired of the place and really wanted to know how Edward had done that. He had promised to tell her, but would he?

[[that sounds good =] ]]
Edward was rushed to the hospital as well, though he was just fine and really didn't need any help. He was greeted by Carlisle at the hospital who told the nurses, who were clinging to Edward, that he would take care of them. They left in dissapointment when the great Dr. Cullen told them to walk away from his son. Must be hard for them. Edward didn't feel sorry for them. Since his father didn't say anything, Edward guessed he was upset with him as well. Edward therefore started a conversation, ansking of him to check Bella. He agreed, of course he would.
So, Edward made his way to Bella's room, opening it up just as she threw her neck brace on the floor. Angry much? She didn't like being taken care of, did she? It made her feel weak. "How is your head?" Edward asked of her, walking closer to her. It was weird being in a room all alone with her. She was such an easy prey now, she really should be afraid to be with him after all this.

"My head is fine," Bella replied trying not sound angry. She tried to keep her eyes away from him knowing once she looked at him her thoughts would get all jumbled and she would forget what she planning on saying. "How did you do it?" Bella asked looking at Edward. Bella concentrated on her question and tried not to get distracted by how perfect Edward was. It seemed like he would just disappear at any moment.
Bella kept her eyes on Edward. She tried to think of some sort of answer. How he could have done what she knew she saw. There had to be some answer. Something she wasn't able to think of. She was coming up with a blank she needed to know, but didn't know if he would give her an answer.

Edward smiled, ammused by the angry tone which was hidden behind her words. This really shouldn't be amusing him and still it was. He was sick, very sick. He tried to look like he didn't know what she was talking about when he asked of him how he had done 'that'. His eyebrows furrowed and he smiled slightly, confused "Did what?" He asked. Edward was a good actor, you had to be if you wanted to pull it out as a human when you weren't.. At least, he had been a very good actor until Bella came along and was now figuring him out. How did she do it?! Jesus, how could anyone be so observant?
He looked up, hearing Carlisle come "I brought someone to check you.. He might be able to let you go, if you're okay that is" Then Carlisle stepped in, all inhuman as he was. Edward stepped a step back, glad that Carlisle had come now. He had just saved him from a whole bunch of questions.. Bella was going to ask them later though, he was sure of it, she wasn't going to let this go.

[[Since we don't have a Carlisle I'm just going to skip over this part.]]
"You know what," Bella grumbled as she saw the doctor come in. She would demand answers later right now she was focusing on getting out of the hospital. She didn't like it. Bella's mouth opened when she saw Dr. Cullen walk into the room. He was pale, blond, and handsomer than any movie star. She knew this had to be Edward's father from Charlie's description. He asked her how she was feeling, and all the normal procedures. His touch was ice cold though something she hadn't been expecting. The doctor told her she could leave and that her father as well as most of the school was in the waiting room. Dr. Cullen left to continue his rounds.
Bella groaned everyone was here. She looked at Edward, "You owe me an explanation." She wasn't going to give up on this she wanted an answer. He could trust her she wasn't going to tell anyone. He stopped a van with his hands how could he have done that, there was no logical answer for that.

[[sure, sure =] ]]
"I don't know what you're talking about, Bella" He said, trying really hard not to sound annoyed or angry. He was angry, why couldn't she just let this pass her by? sure, it wasn't normal at all but did she really have to be this stubborn? Couldn't she just thank him and move on? Why did she want to know how he had been able to stop the van? Edward was going to stick to his version of the story, that he had stood beside her, but he couldn't explain how he had stopped the van. He didn't know what to tell her.
When Carlisle was finished with examining Bella, she was released and Edward followed her out of her room. It seemed like the whole scool was here and he couldn't help but smile slightly. She probably felt very embarrassed by now. Poor Bella. He looked down at her, starting to walk when she spoke to him again "I don't owe you anything," He said.

Bella there was no logical way for him to do what he did she wanted to know he had said he would tell her. "You can't deny what you did. You were no where near me you were by your car. And you stopped the van with your hands you left dents in the van..." Bella trailed off in a whisper. It sounded ridiculous but it was true she knew he had done this she had seen it.
Bella looked up at Edward their had be some logical answer something that didn't sound crazy. This didn't happen everyday, it never happened, what was Edward, could the rest of his family to this as well? Or was it just him? So many questions and she would probably not get an answer to any of them.

He looked down at her, mouthing the words 'watch me' to the air, in front of him, as she said he couldn't deny it. Sure he could, only it would be a lie if he did and she wouldn't believe him because she was so stubborn. She kept on talking and he stopped to look at her. She was right and he was the one lying here. Not knowing what to say anymore he opened his mouth and let whatever come out of it; "Well, no one is going to believe you," He whispered, in just as low of a voice as she had used. They were whispering. Why? So no one would hear? Why would she be concerned about anyone hearing them?
His eye narrowed as he awaited for an answer from her. He didn't know what to do anymore.. She was much to much to observant on this part, she would easily figure him out and when she did what would happen? Would she run? And what would happen to his family? He couldn't let her find out and yet still some part of him wanted her to find out.

"I wasn't going to tell anyone," Bella replied. She wouldn't have told any, why would she? "You can trust me," Bella added. He could she wouldn't tell anyone no matter how ridiculous his response was. Would he trust her, or would he try to avoid it? Bella wasn't sure, but she couldn't ignore what she saw. But she would never tell anyone they would think she was crazy, but not just because of that. She didn't want to tell anyone it was a secret he was trying to keep and she didn't want it to be revealed no one else seemed to notice what he did expect for her.
She looked at him waiting for his answer. Wondering, trying to figure out how he did, questions that she could not answer.

That answer surprised him. She wasn't going to tell. Aha. He was sure that if she really knew what this was about she would go running to everyone and tell. And then Edward and his family would, most likely, be slaughtered. She couldn't promise anything as she didn't even know what she was talking about. Then she told him that he could trust her and he raised an eyebrow "You have no idea what you're talking about. Don't go around making promises you can't keep," He said, his voice as low as a whisper.
She kept on looking at him and he furrowed a bit on her stare "Can't you just thank me and get over it?" He asked of her, getting annoyed. Couldn't she just thank him and be done with it?

"You don't think I can keep quiet?" Bella question. She didn't understand why he couldn't tell her. She wasn't going to tell anyone he had stopped van. No she would never do that and if he had given her some sort of answer then she would keep that to. But it appeared he wouldn't be telling her anything. She would have to figure this out on her own. But would any of it be close to what he was. Someone with inhuman strength and speed, it was not normal.
"Thank you," Bella replied narrowing her eyes. She was not going to let this go. She would find out eventually whether she figured it out or he told her.

He looked at her, eyes narrow, and arms crossed. "Do you think you would be able to keep quiet, yourself? Honestly," He said, raising an eyebrow. He didn't believe that anyone would be able to keep quiet if they were to know about his secret. And it really didn't matter if she did, somehow the Volturi would find out and Bella would probably have to die then.. he didn't want that to happen. He never wished for the death of this beautiful girl, the oposite - he wanted to protect her.. he felt protective of her.
He looked at her, raising an eyebrow at her thank you "You're not going to let this go, are you?" He asked of her.

"Yes," Bella replied. Was his secret that bad, did he not believe anyone could keep quite about this? She narrowed his eyes just the same as he did. But somehow he looked a lot more angrier. It wasn't fair he didn't trust her. She wouldn't ever tell anyone and there wasn't anyway for her to prove it. Maybe after a few weeks and he realizes she didn't tell anyone like she said he would tell her his secret.
"No," Bella replied crossing her arms. She wanted to know. She was going to find out. Even if she had to make guesses which would probably be wrong.

Short answers, but they were enough for Edward. He really didn't care much what she thought she was able to do and not able to do - He didn't think she would be able to keep such a big secret, secret. She was to.. Human. It would be weird for her and she would have to tell someone about her new discovernment. Besides, what was he supposed to tell her?; 'I'm a vampire' - Would she really believe that? She really didn't know what she was talking about, so she really shouldn't be talking; "You really don't know what you're talking about," He whispered, his voice low almost a whisper as it had been this whole conversation. His eyes were still narrowed and his eyebrows furrowed.
She crossed her arms, probably trying to look angry. It ammused Edward, though not enough to wear his anger off "Well, then I sure hope you enjoy dissapointment," He answered her, then he turned on his heal and was walking away from her. He had to do this, as much as he hated to be mad at her he had to do this. She couldn't know anything. She wouldn't understand, as much as she would want to and promise she would, she just wouldn't

"I think I do," Bella replied when Edward said he didn't know what he was talking about. She could keep his secret he didn't have to hide it from her. She watched him as he took off. She uncrossed her arms. He wasn't going to tell her anything. She knew from his last statement that he wasn't going to tell her. If she was going to find out she was going to have make guesses. She didn't like lying and she hoped it would be for a good reason. How he had saved her she didn't know and her guesses would probably not be right.
Bella walked down the hall dreading the waiting room. She knew just about the entire school was there, but her father would be there and they could go home.

Bella walked down the hall dreading the waiting room. She knew just about the entire school was there, but her father would be there and they could go home. Charlie was going to take that kid's license away. He was going to yell at the hospital nurse. He was going to fuss at the kids. He was going to . . .
He was going to just sit there. He wanted to yell and kick up a fit until they let him see Bella but they said she was getting some test ran and that he could see when she got--
Charlie stopped thinking and stood up when he saw Bella. Walking (quickly) to her he put a hand on her arm, needing to make sure she was ok. "You ok?"

"I'm fine dad," Bella assured her father. She was fine physically she didn't see why Edward couldn't trust her. What was the big deal she knew there was something different about him. He couldn't hide it. Bella looked at her father and tried to smile slightly to make it seem like she was fine.
Bella didn't know if she succeed in assuring her dad, but she wanted to get out of here. Away from this hospital, away from Edward Cullen. She didn't want to think about him or how he saved her life.

Charlie wasn't going to let this go. "Are you sure? They said you hit your head." He ran his hand up her arm and touched the back if her head. She didn't appear to be bleeding, or anything. Bella was a tough girl, she got hurt allot but nothing like this. The EMT said it was a shocking she was alive, that she was damn lucky. The van should have crushed her.
She was always 'fine'. Charlie wanted to talk to a doctor but she was walking and Dr. Cullen had said he would see to her personally. That had to mean something.

"I didn't hit my head," Bella replied a bit to harshly. Edward was going to make sure everyone thought she hit her head so anything she said couldn't be credited. Like telling them he stopped the van, that was not going to happen. She wouldn't tell anyone like she said and she didn't even want to.
"Let's just go home," Bella suggested glancing at her father before heading toward the door. She knew her father was worried about her and she was just tired of having Edward tell her she hit her head that she didn't know what she was talking about. She did and he couldn't deny what he did.

"Umm," Charlie said thinking. He knew Bella enough to know that she would want to avoid the class mates out front so he nodded his head and wrapped an arm around her. "My car is out front. I gave your keys to a deputy and they will drive your truck home after the paper work is done." He would just call Dr. Cullen once they got Bella home safe, and ask a few questions.
Once they got past the classmates and into the car, Charlie asked, "What did Dr. Cullen say about your head?"

Bella nodded her head as her father told her about her truck. She gladly for once got into the police cruiser glad to be in it. She didn't want to have to deal with the entire school. She looked at her father when he asked about head. "There's nothing wrong with my head," Bella replied. What had Edward and Dr. Cullen make everything she had head trauma or something? "I didn't even hit it, it's perfectly fine!"
Bella crossed her arms and looked out the window. It was still raining and a bit icy. But at least she was going home. She would probably try to lay down for a while and try to sort things through.

Note to self, don't ask about her head again, or call Dr. Cullen were Bella could over hear. Charlie drove them away from the hospital once they were both in and buckled up. "You might want to call Renee when you get in and settled." He said leaving a small hint as to what he did. Renee knew how to worry but Charlie had thought the worst when the EMT said that there had been a crash at Forks High and two students were taken away, once of which was I. Swan. His baby Bella.
