To be unwanted

Meeting her

Edward POV
I made my way to my last period the incident from lunch still fresh on my mind. Rosalie and Alice had rushed to comfort the girl. Alice seemed to be panicking more than usual about her. She's had multiple visions about her, but when I try to see what the visions are about she starts singing the alphabet backwards in her head. Which is quite frustrating.

I heard all about Alexandria Swan, the chief of Fork's police pregnant daughter. I never seen her before though. Everyone knew her story though, her stepfather kidnapped her and held her hostage for years, raping her every night until she escaped only to discover that she was pregnant. Unlike most in her situation she chose to love and keep her baby. She fought back against her abusers, and put them in jail.

Her sister has been telling a different story. Apparently Alexandria was a huge slut, but when Charlie found out that she was pregnant she cried rape. The only people to believe that though were Jessica Stanley and Lauren Mallory. The three girls formed a little 'Jealous of Alexandria Swan posse' typical teenage girl drama.

I took my seat in biology class. About 5 minutes later an intoxicating scent entered the room. The smell of strawberries and cream caused my mouth to pool with venom. I quickly put my hand over my nose. That scent, whoever it belonged to, needed to stay away from me. The natural urge to drain them dry outweighed my better judgment. The scent got stronger as someone sat down.

I looked up to see one of the new girls. This one was the brunette Isabella Swan. She wasn't really attractive with her body that mimicked a prepubescent boy, and her stringy nappy brown hair, and her bad fashion taste, and her dreary holier than thou aura. There was a lot to not like about the girl, and she hadn't even spoken yet.

Isabella suddenly pulled her shirt down a little revealing the edge of a black lace bra surprising me that they made such a small size. She puffed out her chest in order to make them look bigger which failed. Then she began to twirl a strand of her hair and jut out her thin lips "Hi, I'm Bella Swan, you must be Edward Cullen......I hope you don't mind, but I'm not really good at biology, but I'm sure after a few private lessons from you I could learn a few things."

Her voice sounded like a cat that got stuck in a garbage disposal. Was she trying to flirt with me? We literally just met, how desperate must someone be? My thoughts were cut off when a fruity citrus and floral smell entered my nose. Now this scent was absolutely amazing. My eyes snapped to the front where I saw Angela excoriating a blonde haired girl into the classroom. Multiple heartbeats came from her, along with the scent that drowned out that Bella gave out and calmed my bloodlust but made room for another type of lust.

I watched as she made her way gracefully to the seat behind Isabella. Well it was graceful until Isabella tripped her like a bratty 1st grader. Everyone laughed while Mr. Molina scolded them. I looked at her in concern as she scurried to her seat. Her head bowed submissively as she wrapped her arms around her stomach as if to reassure herself that the life growing inside her was still there. She clearly suffered from ptsd, but she was fighting it. She just needed someone on her side.

I was so distracted in my thoughts that I almost didn't notice Isabella's hand creep up my thigh. I quickly shoved her hand away and raised my own "Mr. Molina? May I switch seats? It's a little distracting here" "Sure Mr. Cullen, but quickly" I nodded and gathered up my things, and quickly moved to sit next to Alexandria.

She peeked over at me through the corner of her eye. "Hi, I'm Edward Cullen, you're Alexandria Swan, right?" I said. She turned to face me and my whole world froze. Something clicked into place, something that I didn't know I was missing but desperately needed. This girl is my mate. "Yes, I'm Alexandria, but please feel free to call me Alex" she said softly in a melodic voice that reminded me of a forgotten lullaby.

As soon as she spoke I knew that I'd love her for forever.

I didn't realize it, but I've been smiling this whole time. Alex returned my smile, and that's when I felt as if all the dark monstrous things inside me faded away and bowed before this angelic light. She was warm, and kind, and beautiful, and so full of life and love. Everything that I wasn't, but I wanted to be, for her.

"Oh my god Alex leave him alone. He clearly doesn't want to talk to you! You're such a desperate slut, you can't see when someone doesn't want you around" a nails on chalkboard voice chimed in. I looked over to see Isabella glare at Alex, but turned to me and fluttered her eyelashes as if she had gotten sand or dust in them "You can come back and sit next to me, baby" she......seductively purred? It seriously sounds awful whatever it is. I looked back at Alex to see that her light had dimmed at her so called sister's word.

So Alex was my mate, but Isabella was my blood singer. This was not good. I wanted to kill and drain one sister, but fuck the living daylights out of the other. I needed to leave before I went through with either one of those options or did both.

It felt like years before the bell rang. I quickly stood up and bolted to the front office. "I need to switch out of biology, now!" I told the office aide. We argued for a few minutes before she said "I'm sorry but every other class is full. You'll have to stay in biology" I then caught wind of strawberries and citrus. I whirled around to see a pissed off Isabella, and a hurt Alex, dammit she looks so sad.

"It's fine, I'll just, endure it" I muttered before storming off straight to my car. Leaving a heartbroken Alex in my wake. Good, she deserved better than some monster like me. I got into my car and sped home. Rosalie stormed in after me "What the hell Edward! You hurt Alex's feelings!" "Stay out of it Rosalie!" I snapped.

"I see Alex as a little sister, and you just hurt her!" Rosalie snapped back. Emmett was holding her back and tried to calm her down but it was no use I seriously pissed her off this time. Esme walked in "What on earth is going on here?" She asked concerned as she stepped in between me and Rose.

"Alex is Edward's mate so he's going to Denali to protect her from himself" Alice chimed in. Everyone froze and became crestfallen "Edward? Is this true?" Esme asked hesitantly and sadly "It doesn't matter. I won't damn her or her babies to this life" I packed a bag then sped to my car and drive off. Leaving behind my family, my home, and most importantly my mate.

With each mile I felt my heart breaking and a piece fall apart. I was doing the right thing, right? I was protecting Alex from all the monsters and horrors of the world. She deserved better after everything she's been through.
