||Elliana's P.O.V.||
Beads of sweat formed on my forehead as I dashed into the school, having overslept due to tossing and turning all night. I barged into the classroom at the very last second, having barely closed the door behind me when the bell rang. As I made my way to my seat, Amy spun around and stared at me with a giddy expression. She was practically bouncing up and down in her desk when I slid in behind her.
With Rosalie's comment from yesterday still ringing in my ears, I casually glanced in Edward's direction, instantly locking eyes with him. His ember orbs peered into mine from afar, an array of emotions swirling in their depths. I studied his features, taking note of the small smile he was offering me that was miles away from reaching his eyes. I still hadn't forgotten that he needed to speak with me about something, but I pushed that thought to the side for now.
Inhaling a shaky breath, I returned his smile, though mine was genuine. Immediately, a crooked grin stretched across his face, his golden eyes dancing before I smiled at Emmett and Alice as well, silently greeting all three of them. Then, I turned my attention to Amy who looked as though she was going to have an aneurysm at any given moment.
"Okay. Spill." She grinned from ear to ear, leaning towards me.
I quirked a brow at her giddy expression. "Spill what?"
She looked at me as though I had three heads, rolling her eyes before saying, "You and Trevor! Duh!"
"What about us?"
I felt three sets of curious eyes on us, causing me to shift awkwardly in my seat.
Amy's smile grew, transforming into a smirk. "So, there is an 'us'?"
My eyes widened, a blush rushing to my cheeks. "What? No—"
She interrupted me mid-sentence, clasping her hands together as her eyes took on a dreamy stare, "Oh, Elle. It's so romantical. Him coming all this way to profess his feelings for you! And all this time you assumed your love was unrequited. Doesn't it sound like a fairytale? Oh, this is—"
My jaw went slack. Out of the corner of my eye, I could see Edward shoot Emmett a stern glare when the broad vampire started snickering to himself.
Now, it was my turn to interrupt Amy. "Amy, no, no. You've got it all wrong.."
She looked at me in disbelief, arching a brow in challenge. "How so? Boys just don't just travel across the world for no reason. Don't you see? He's finally realized the error of his ways. He's here to claim you as his!"
I felt my eyes grow to the size of saucers at the idea. When Emmett chuckled lowly, I couldn't resist stealing a glance in the Cullens' direction, immediately locking eyes with Edward. He wore a blank expression, but his jaw was clenched.
