Skipping biology

The events of yesterday were still rearing in my mind.  I wondered what else Bella had noticed besides my eyes and the fact that I got to her so quickly in the parking lot.  I got to the door and waited for Alice, Rosalie and Emmett weren’t driving with us today.  Rosalie was still irate about what had happened yesterday at school.  While on our way to school Alice informed me that my biology class would be doing blood typing.  Well there goes my plan to talk to Bella to find out what she was thinking.  First and second periods went by quickly; I walked slowly into the cafeteria ignoring everyone’s thoughts.  I didn’t want to know what people were saying about me today, the only thoughts I wanted to read I couldn’t.  At this point I saw Bella in the lunch line playing with some vegetables; she had an apple in her hand.  The apple slipped out of her hand just as I approached her.  I bounced it off my shoe and brought it up into my hand.  She looked at me in shock as I handed it back to her.  “Hello” I said.  She looked up into my eyes, and at that point I really wished I could read her mind.  “I don’t think I have the strength to stay away from you anymore” I said.  “Then don’t, come hang out with us tonight at the beach” she replied “Which beach” I answered.  “La Push” she quickly replied.  I looked in her eyes and saw that she really wanted me there, but because of the treaty I could not venture to La Push.  “Sorry I can’t, I’m busy tonight” She frowned and turned away from me and started back to her table.

I left the cafeteria before the bell rang.  I wasn’t attending biology, due to the fact that they were doing blood typing.  I was walking down the hall slowly heading for the parking lot when I saw Mike coming out of biology supporting Bella with his arms.  I raced to them “Mike what happened?” “Well Bella here passed out at the site of blood, I was just taking her to the nurse” I took a firm hold of Bella “Its ok Mike I’ll take her, you get back to class” He reluctantly gave in and went back in to the room. 

I escorted Bella to the nurse’s office.  “I’m ok Edward, I just get queasy at the site of blood” “You need to lay down Bella, you look paler then usual” I helped her to the bed in the Nurse’s office and she laid down, the color started to come back to her face. 

“Do you think you’re well enough to go back to class Bella?” the nurse asked.  “I don’t think so; they are still doing blood typing” “Edward do you think you can take Bella home? I don’t think she can handle the rest of the school day.” The nurse said chuckling to herself.  “Sure I can” I replied glad that Bella didn’t feel the need to go back to class.  This would give me some time to talk with her.

I helped Bella up from the bed and let her put her arm over my shoulder so I could support most of her weight.  We slowly walked out to the parking lot and headed for my car.  She leaned up against the car on the passenger’s side as I unlocked my door.  Once it was unlocked I went around and opened the door for her and helped her in.  We drove in silence at first, and then she spoke. “Are you sure you don’t want to join us at La Push?” she asked.  “Sorry Bella I have some stuff to take care of later, I can’t join you” I didn’t realize how fast I was driving until we were in front of her house.  “Give me your truck keys; I’ll have Alice drop it off to you after school” She handed me her keys and slowly got out of the car.  She turned back to me “Thank you again for helping me” she smiled.  “You’re welcome” I said and smiled back.  She turned back towards her house and walked slowly, turning back once to wave.  I sped off towards home.
