🌛CHAPTER 4🌜

*°Eden's POV°*

Peter and I will be visiting you real soon, little wolf.
-Derek😎

That was the message I woke up too, which completely woke me up, I was staring at the message, because it could only mean, they were already on their way.

With a sigh, I got out of bed, ate breakfast and got ready for school, not sure how this day is gonna turn out, the only good thing so far, was the pouring rain.

School went by pretty fast, before I could blink, I noticed most of the day went by, and Bella and I were on our way to biology, Eric found us on the way.

"Prom Committee is a chick thing, but I gotta cover it for the paper anyway, and they need a guy to help choose the music, so I need both of your playlists." Eric says, but my eyes scanned the room when my eyes locked with Edward's, who has finally returned after a week of being gone.

I got snapped away from looking at him, by Mike shaking his wet cap over our heads. "What's up, Arizona? Hale? Huh? How you liking the rain, girl's?Better get used to it, girl's." He says, probably trying to be funny, but he wasn't, not even for a second.

I made my way towards my seat, not looking at the Cullen who was already staring at me, but I only ignored him, looking towards our teacher who just arrived as well.

"Hello." Edward says, his voice was so gentle, my head snapped towards him, to make sure it was him who was talking.

"I'm sorry, I didn't get a chance to introduce myself last week. I'm Edward Cullen. You're Eden?" He asks, with a smile, making me a bit skeptical.

"Uh, yeah." I say,  Mr Molina was finally done handing out the things we'll be needing for today's class.

"Onion root tip cells, that's what's on your slides right now. Okay? So, separate and label them into the phases of mitosis, and the first partners that get it right are gonna win the Golden Onion." Mr Molina explains, holding a golden onion up, for everyone to see.

Edward, put the first slide in, pushing the microscope towards me. "Ladies first." He says.

"So you took a break from school?" I ask looking through the microscope, I knew Lydia said to ignore him.

'How can someone be a jackass, disappear for an entire week, and then return, and be the kindest of people, unless he was on his period.' I thought to myself, and strangely Edward started chuckling, as if he read my thoughts, but that couldn't be possible.

"Yeah. I was out of town for a couple of days, due to personal reasons." He says.

"Prophase." I told him, writing it down.

"Do you mind if I look?" He asks, pointing at the microscope, I pushed it towards him, as he looked as well, I couldn't help, but stare, he was absolutely beautiful.

"It's prophase." He says, looking back at me, making me look away, embarrassed I almost got caught.

"Like I said." I mutter softly.

"So are you enjoying the rain?" He asks, putting in the next slide, I looked back at him curiously. "You're seriously asking about the weather? Of all things?" I ask, I couldn't help but start wandering about what kind of person he is.

"Yeah, I... I guess I am." Edward says, a smile on his face, and it made him look more handsome than he already was. "I absolutely love it, any sort of cold weather, it just makes me feel calm, and...." I trailed off, once I noticed Edward staring at me with a certain look in his eyes, but I just couldn't quite place what it was.

"What? Is there something on my face?" I asks, touching my face hoping I didn't eat like a pig again, leaving food stains on my face, I hate it when that happens.

"Nothing." He says, looking into the microscope once again.

"It's anaphase." Edward states.

"Can I take a look?" I ask.

"Sure." He says, pushing the microscope towards me, I leaned forward, taking a look. "Anaphase." I say in confirmation.

"Like I said." Edward says with a small grin, putting in the next slide. "Is that why you moved to the wettest place in the continental US?" He asks curiously.

"It's kinda more complicated than that." I say, looking down sadly, as certain moments flashed through my mind like a movie, dampening my mood even more.

"I'm sure I can keep up." Edward says, saving me from the misery of going down memory lane even further.

"My family is a really complicated bunch, and not even the friends that I had weren't normal, which made things a bit different for me, so I moved here to get away from all those crazy things." I tell him, obviously I couldn't tell him the whole truth, that would make me sound crazy, he might even have his dad put me in a nuthouse.

"Did they make you unhappy, with the way they treated you differently?" Edward asks, staring at me curiously with those golden eyes.

"Most of the times, yes, especially when they think I won't be able to protect myself from the dangerous of the world." I say rather dramatically, which made Edward smile, looking into the microscope.

"It's metaphase. You want to check it?" He asks, pointing at the microscope.

"I'll take your word for it." I say, feeling relieved that he wasn't that big of a jerk as I thought he was. The rest of class was actually quite enjoyable, and thanks to Edward we won the golden onion.

"Did any of your family moved here with you?" Edward asks, walking me to my locker.

"No, just me, they didn't find out where I was until much later, which their still angry at me for, but my dad was very understanding of my sudden move." I tell him, leaving a few details out once more, I barely moved and I had to lie, and I hated that.

"Aren't you unhappy being alone here?" He asks, once we stopped by my locker.

"Lonely, yes, but not unhappy." I state, opening up my locker, putting some of my books away.

"I'm sorry, your just a very mysterious person, and it kind of intrigues me." Edward state, staring at me once more.

"Yeah, I get that a lot. I like your contacts by the way." I say pointing towards his eyes.

"I don't wear contacts." Edward says.

"Oh, I'm sorry I didn't mean to offend you, it's just your eyes were a little darker on my first day here." I point out.

"Yeah, I know, it's the... It's the fluorescents." Edward says, storming off afterwards, making me wonder what I said wrong, to anger him.
