Chapter 2: the back stabber
Cassie's Pov
Once I got home I got my things from my car and went up to my room. I got my homework done as quickly as I could and started working on my art project. We had to be done by the end of the month and I wanted to work as much as I could because I wanted it to be perfect. The teacher said that it had to be something from our imagination. It could be anything we wanted and I chose a wolf. I didn't know why but I felt like that's what I needed to draw. I heard Bella's truck pull up in the driveway and I got up to lock my door. I sat down again continuing to sketch the wolf. I heard my door knob jiggle followed by a knock on my door. "Hey Cassie can I come in" I heard Bella say from the other side of the door. "No Bella I'm kind of busy with something for school and I can't have any distractions sorry" I said and continued what I was doing. Now I wasn't technically lying because I really want to get a lot of detail into this but I also don't want to talk to her if she's going to he saying stuff behind my back and act like she didn't do anything when we are at home. I was almost done with half of the sketch and by that time it was 1 in the morning so I decided it was time to go to sleep before I had to go to school. I woke up 4 hours later getting lunch ready for school and dressing in, well whatever I grabbed out of my closet. I grabbed an apple on the way out and ate it on the way to school. I was always the first one there which I was okay with. I usually stayed in my car reading a book anyway. I got out of my car and went to my first class as I heard the bell ring and hoped today would be better than yesterday. I couldn't help but notice Bella with her stupid group of friends as I walked by them. She didn't even give a second glance at me as she saw me and I felt like I shouldn't even be here. If my own sister couldn't even except me in front of people then maybe I was a mistake. I walked by the Cullen's and noticed Jasper staring at me with pity? No it couldn't be pity. Could it? I'm probably just over thinking things. As I was about to look away I felt a tear run down my cheek and whipped it away quickly looking down and continuing my journey to class. As usual I sat down in the back and just listened as the teacher was talking about stupid equations that I already knew the answers to. I heard laughing and whispering and suddenly a paper was thrown on my desk. I unfolded it and it read, 'No one likes you, you freak go kill yourself. You're just a mistake that your parents probably didn't want to make.' As the day went on I got more of these and my mood just got worse by the time lunch came. I was just sitting there picking at my food thinking about what everyone has been telling me today. Suddenly I felt a wave of happiness wash over me but just as soon as it was here it was gone. I shook my head and looked down at the table. That was weird.
Jasper's Pov
We were all staring at Cassie as she picked at her food. I could feel her emotions the most out of everyone's in this cafeteria. Rosalie has taken a liking to Cassie as she looks like Rosalie's younger sister. Well, except for the eyes of course. Rosalie frowned as she stared at Cassie just playing with her food. "Jasper do something I don't like seeing her sad" Rosalie said turning to me with pleading eyes. I nodded and looked at Cassie focusing on her emotion. I got her to be happy but then something weird happened. Her mood got even worse then it was before. She flinched and put her head in her hands. Why didn't it work? "That's weird" I mumbled. "What happened" Rosalie asked. I shook my head thinking. "I changed her emotion but then it just went back to her being sad but worse" I said looking at Cassie. There is something strange about her and I don't know what.

I couldn't take it anymore and shot up out of my seat getting my stuff hurrying toward the trash can throwing my things away going to my last period of the day, art. I was debating wether or not to skip that period since I had already finished the sketch and just needed to paint it but I decided to stay. I sighed as I sat down in my spot and got out black paint painting the wolf. Once the bell rang I had finished and handed it to my teacher turning in the assignment early. This would defiantly count as extra credit which I wasn't against. After I was done talking to the teacher I headed home just thinking about today.
*time skip*
It's been almost a week and everything has gotten worse if that's even possible. I don't know how much more of this I can take. I've been dealing with this for too long and I don't even have control over it. I've been crying myself to sleep every night. I've been keeping it quiet so dad and Bella don't hear me and ask questions. I've had depression ever since middle school when everyone started bullying me about my eyes. I wear sunglasses most of the time which is weird because Forks isn't always that sunny, but it's better than people seeing my eyes. I sighed getting up from my bed since I couldn't get any sleep last night and when I looked in the mirror and my eyes were still puffy from crying so I splashed water in my face hoping that would do something and started heading down to school. Once it was lunch I sat down eating my food drawing whatever came to mind. After I was done I looked at it and got confused. I had drawn two sets of eyes. One was red and the other was a sort of golden color. Huh, weird. I thought looking down at the picture and turned the page drawing something else. This time it was a picture of someone but I couldn't really tell who it was but I really didn't care. "So Bella your sister seems to be getting weirder lately" I heard one of Bella's friends say. I was just fed up with them talking crap about me but I was too chicken to say anything so all I could do was sit and listen. "Ya she just doesn't fit in she belongs in a circus or something am I right" she said and that got all her friends laughing. I looked down at my lap and felt the tears streaming down my face. What a good sister huh? I thought pulling my knees up to my chest in my seat. Is my sister seriously that oblivious that I'm right next to her table? Or does she seriously think that about me? Why did I have to be born this way? I didn't ask for this. I never asked for this. Before I could even think about what to do the bell rang and I headed off to art. Instead of going to art I just sat on the steps outside of school and rested my head on the side of the steps. I pulled my sweater closer to me considering that it was a little colder than usual and that my sweater wasn't one that would keep you warm. I silently cried to myself because I knew the bell would ring soon and I was not going to let anyone see me cry so, I hid my face. The stairs were pretty long so I wasn't really taking up space, and if I wanted to go home I could just get up and walk to my car since I was right in front of the parking lot. I heard the bell ring and I let out a quiet squeak and I was basically shaking. I heard footsteps of people walking by and I heard various comments. 'Freak' 'Weirdo' 'Mistake' 'Go kill yourself' etc. etc. I was basically crying all the tears I had left in my body after that. Then I heard more footsteps. They sounded as if they were walking together not like the bundle of kids earlier. I moved closer to the side of the wall shaking trying not to let out a sob just waiting for whoever was walking to tell me something. I heard some of the footsteps continue but one stopped and stayed. I was waiting for who ever it was to tell me something but to my surprise they didn't. The person suddenly sat down beside me and I flinched as they put a hand on my back. I looked to my right a little to see who it was and saw Rosalie Hale. What was she doing here? Why is she sitting with the weirdo on the stairs? "Hey, why are you crying" she asked. I just stared at her not knowing what to say. I just shook my head and looked forward not wanting to say anything. "Well Cassie my family and I were wondering if you would like to come home with us because we wanted to talk to you about something" she said. I thought about it for a while and I guess it wouldn't hurt right? "I g-guess so" I stuttered out and as I said that I heard screeching and my head short up to see what was going on. My sister was about to be hit by a car who was driven by I don't know who and I didn't feel worried. I actually didn't feel anything. I felt numb and I just laid my head on the side of the brick wall closing my eyes. Before I knew it I was in a house I've never been in before and was surrounded by the Cullen's. I looked around and this room alone was huge so I wondered what the rest of it looked like. "Hey Cassie you fell asleep and you were coming here with us anyway so we just brought you with us" Rosalie said. I nodded and looked around at them. Now I'm shy so I didn't really say anything. "So what we wanted to tell you will have to wait till my dad gets home from his job. Don't worry I texted your dad and told him that you were going to spend the weekend with us and he was excited that you were making friends so he said that it was fine and that he'd see you when you got home on Monday" Rosalie continued and I nodded again. Jasper sat down next to me and I looked up at him. I looked into his eyes and suddenly images flashed before my eyes. It was of Jasper. This looked like it was a long time ago though. Suddenly I saw an image where he has been bit by something. I flinched and suddenly saw that he had red eyes. The many people around him had red eyes too. Then I realized that they had been vampires. I blinked and looked away shaking my head. I must be seeing things. "You're not seeing things" Edward said popping out of no where. I jumped and looked at him. "What" I asked. "Let's sit down Cassie" Carlisle said. I nodded even though I was already sitting down but I think he probably meant all of them. They all sat down and Carlisle started talking. "We are vampires and we may or may not know why your eyes are different colors so we are trying to figure that out. I'm looking into it to see what I can find out. Some of us have gifts. Edward can read minds, Jasper can feel and manipulate emotions, and Alice can see the future" Carlisle said and I nodded. That's cool. Edward laughed and I looked at him and glared. "Don't go through my thoughts or..." I paused for a little thinking. "I'll try to find a way to kill you if you do" I continued and laid back on the couch looking up at the ceiling closing my eyes. I felt eyes on me and looked up at everyone staring at me. "What" I asked. "Well you took us being vampires pretty well" Alice said. I laid my head on the side of the couch. "I'm weird, you're weird. We're all weird here" I said yawning. "Come on Cassie you're sleeping in Emmet and Rosalie's room since that's the only one that really has a bed." I heard someone say. "But I don't even have any clothes" I mumbled tiredly as I was falling asleep on the couch. "That's fine we'll find something come on" Alice said excited. "Give me a minute" I murmured and fell asleep hearing everyone laughing.
