Blood Type

As Bella went to English that day she couldn't stop thinking about how Edward had asked her to go to Seattle. She couldn't get it out of her head! Then when she walked to Biology she didn't see him. Where did he go? In class, they started the lab for the day which involved pricking your own finger. At the sight of blood, Bella got sick and couldn't stand up. Of, Course Mike had offered to take her to the nurse's office. When they were walking outside Bella fell to the ground, and she heard a familiar voice. Edward was right behind her and took Mikes place. His cold arms around her strangely made her feel warm inside. During this time they got to spend together, Bella got to ask questions about him that she had been wondering. That weekend Edward said he was going camping, but Bella had plans of her own. She went on a beach trip to La Push, just a few miles from Forks. She went with the whole Mike and Jessica gang. It was fun but something came up that questioned Bella's train of thought. A boy name Jacob Black started to talk to her. He seemed to be family friends with Charlie, so they used to play a lot. As they walked on the beach, talking, Jacob brought up the Cullen family. He started talking about how his great-grand father told "the cold ones" to stay of his land. Bella was confused so she asked, "'So how does it fit in with the Cullens? Are they like the cold ones your great-grandfather met?' "No.' He paused for dramatically. 'They are the same ones.'" (125) Bella was speechless.

The Invitations

I left off in my book at chapter four, Invitations. Bella had her first dream of Edward, which made her think about him even more than she did! It was a month after the incident of the car collision, from which Edward had saved her. Tyler Crowley was still apologizing for it, when obviously he didn't need to. Bella was starting to get annoyed. It's not like she needed more people talking to her. She also thought how that entire accident happened. She had gotten out of her car, a few spaces down from Edwards. A few seconds later, her head flung against the hard pavement and she was miraculously in Edward's arms. Bella still wondered how he had save her in that amount of time. In the parking lot, Bella encountered Mike. He asked her to ask him to the spring dance? Bella instantly said no. She wasn't good at dancing and secretly in her mind she knew she wanted to go with Edward. Later in Biology class, Edward talked to her. "'Im sorry.' He sounded sincere. 'I'm being very rude, I know. But it's better this way, really.' I opened my eyes. His face was very serious. 'I don't know what you mean,' I said, my voice guarded. 'It's better if were not friends,' he explained. "Trust me.'"(74) This made Bella think. After Edward had said that to her, she was confused. He had first been so nice to her, but then didn't want to be friends? As the days went on Bella couldn't quite "read" Edward. She knew she adored him, but did he feel the same way? Then One day Edward asked Bella something that was unexpected. He wanted to know if she wanted a ride up to Seattle, since she was not going to the dance. Bella's heart fluttered as they talked. Soon they would be sitting together in a car, driving alone.

Twilight

The book I have started to read is the ever so popular, Twilight by Stephanie Meyer. Even though I have only read the first three chapters, I am hooked. Bella Swan is the new-girl in Town to Forks, Washington. At first, she didn't want to move. Her mom re-married and thought it would be the best to get away and live with Charlie, her dad. There were many things wrong with Forks already. First of all, it rained almost everyday, unlike Phoenix. Second, She had met few friends the first day and people seemed to all know her name. Third, it seemed as if Edward Cullen, the most handsome guy she had ever seen, hated her with a passion. She didn't know why. It's not like she had done anything to him! During Biology, she sat next to him and his dark eyes looked full of hatred when he looked at her. "I peeked up at him one more time, and regretted it. He was glaring down at me again, his black eyes full of revulsion. As I flinched away from him, shrinking against my chair, the phrase if looks could kill suddenly ran through my mind." (24) After school that day, Bella made her way to the front office and she saw Edward arguing with the receptionist. She couldn't help but listen in while he was fighting to get out of his Biology class. What had she done wrong? The next day, Bella came into school scared. She couldn't have another encounter with Edward, even though every time she turned a corner, she watched for his charming good-looking face and dazzling smile. She would look at his brothers and sisters and wonder where he was. In Biology, she came to class and immediately sat down. Right then and there he came through the door. Bella stared straight at her notebook pretending to be interested in something else. To her surprise, the words that came out of his mouth were actually heart-warming. "'Hello,' said a quiet, musical voice." (43) Completely shocked that he was being nice to her she didn't know what to say. All Bella knew was that she was starting to like Edward Cullen a little bit more now.
