Second Chances

Chapter 5

 What the?

This day has been hell. First it started off with me waking up late so I had to skip breakfast. Which lead me to be grumpy for the whole morning. Then Mr. Barners gave our test papers back, and as expected I got a F. Then Jessica spilled purple paint all over my t-shirt. And now, here I am on the floor of the cafeteria, I accidentally tripped at my own two feet and fell head first.

Everyone was practically laughing at me. I blushed fifty shades of Scarlett.

I got up and went to find a seat, but all the tables were occupied. At the right corner of the cafeteria I saw Edward Cullen siting on his own.

Maybe, I could sit with him.

So I went to his table and asked. “Hey, can I sit with you.”

He nodded.

So I took my sit.

We ate in silence.

God! I can’t take this. It is way too quiet.

“So, what are you reading?” I asked him.

He just shrugged at me, I raised my eyebrow. “So Edward, can I ask you a question.” I said.

“You’re already asking me a question” he smirked.

I rolled my eyes at him.

“So can I?” I asked him playfully.

“Of course” he says. Smiling that toothy smile at me.

Woah! He looks really handsome.

“So, I know you’re good in Biology; while me not—not so much.” I say a little ashamed.

“That’s not a question.” Edward replies.

“I was wandering, could you help me with Biology?” I finally say.

He smiles at me “If I could tutor you then of course, Bella”

And I don’t know what got in to me. Maybe it was the bad day I was having, and I just needed a hug. But I hugged him.

He seemed a little surprised and stiffened for a second, but he got used to the hug and then hugged me back.

When I pulled away he seemed a little disappointed, before I could ask the bell rang.

Cringggggggg.

“I have to go to Literature, I’ll see you around I said to him smiling.” And left to go to the English building.
