Bab 13: Back Row
Alex snickered inwardly to himself as he looked at the Cullens's table from the corner of his eyes.
He didn't need to even look as he heard Emmets booming laughter spreading through the entire room, though he looked like he was about to die from joy, some of the others didn't seem to share that same sentiment.
'I see, I guess they take family a bit more seriously than in those fanfictions I read where someone insults Edward and they are all ok with it. That makes more sense I guess.' Alex thought to himself as he turned his attention towards Bella who had now gotten a black face and was glaring at him intently.
"C'mon Bella, I apologized, didn't I? And it wasn't like I said anything that wasn't true from what you're saying that guy did." Alex said to Bella trying to pacify the young woman.
Bella just sighed as she stared at him and shook her head slowly as if in disappointment at how her brother had grown up.
Turning her head to Angela and Jessica, she muttered a soft sorry for him and his antics.
Alex just stood there watching the entire situation unfold dumbfounded.
'Did I just get treated like some dumbass kid?' Alex thought flustered and confused.
"You sure have gotten better at this Bells" Alex muttered to himself as he stared at what he was currently thinking was a vixen in place of his sister.
A grin so small that only Alex with his supernatural sight could see, sprouted on Bella's face.
'Ah, you are going to regret this later.' Alex thought to himself.
Emmet's laughter which had sprouted for the second time just served to irk Alex even more.
What's worse was that he could hear the snickers of the other Cullen members.
'Just you wait, I'll show you all who is the ultimate troll'
The lunch continued afterward with Bella not talking much and just nodding or shaking her head to the occasional question that was directed her way, while Alex got immersed in a talk about American football with Mike and Eric.
As they were so focused on their conversations, they didn't feel the flow of time much and in what felt like a flash, the bell rang signaling the end of the lunch break and that now students had to go back to studying in their classes once more.
Alex and the group all got up as they waved goodbyes to each other, Mike followed Alex while Angela followed Bella as they had the same classes it seemed.
"So how's the professor of Math?" Alex asked Mike as they were heading towards the classroom.
"Ah, it's Professor Kane, he's a good man though quite a bit strict, and likes to have all the students follow his teachings to a T" Mike answered as they were going down the hall, his shoulder was getting bumped almost constantly by the rushing students, causing him to almost fall down sometimes.
Alex meanwhile was passing through the hall without even being touched once.
Mike turned to look at Alex with confused eyes and then opened his mouth to ask.
"How the hell are you doing that?" His voice showcased his befuddlement at the situation occurring before his very eyes.
"How am I doing what?" Alex asked, his voice just as confused as Mike's.
"What do you mean by what, I'm asking how are you not getting bumped into at all, and are just avoiding them all as if the hall is entirely clear," Mike asked as he pointed a finger at the surrounding students.
"Ah, I'm just used to it I guess, in Phoenix, it was even worse considering how many more students there were than in Forks," Alex said as he lied through his teeth.
'I wonder if I had a status window like in those gamer novels then would I have max-level acting skills?' Alex thought to himself as a small smug grin took place on his face.
"You are definitely acting smug as shit because of being able to do it, I see," Mike said as he walked next to Alex and then suddenly went right behind him.
"What are you doing now Mike?" Alex asked though his voice showed how funny he thought the entire situation was.
"What, if you can avoid them all then if I'm following right behind you then I will be able to do the same thing right? This way I'm actually the smart one as I didn't have to learn the skill at all and I get the same benefits as you." Mike said with a large smug grin on his face, acting as if he had won some kind of championship title.
"Right, you're totally right Mike, never knew you were such a genius" Alex replied, his voice deeply painted in heavy sarcasm.
As the conversation neared its end, they also arrived at the classroom door.
Heading inside, Alex saw that they were just on time and together with Mike took a seat at the far back of the class.
"Hmm, why are we going so far back Alex" Mike asked.
"What do you mean why Mike? Don't tell me that you are a front-row guy. There is no benefit in being in the front row, there are only negatives man, like you can't even say a thing without the professor noticing you talk" Alex replied confused at what Mike had just said.
"Yeah, yeah I guess," Mike said as he sat down next to Alex.
Time continued to flow and the class started, nothing seemed really interesting to Alex so he tried to talk to Mike but found out that the guy was actually pretty serious about his studies so he decided to not bother him and let him study.
The hour of math felt like ages to Alex, without a phone or anything else to keep his mind off the time, all he ended up doing was counting the seconds as he looked at the clock on the wall above the blackboard.
*Ring* *Ring*
Finally, the bell rang.

Bab 14: Information Gathering
With the ring of the bell, signaling the end of the Math class, the students all got up with some of them stretching their limbs just like Alex while some others were holding their temples while looking at their notebooks in confusion.
"Well, I'll get going now Mike, I have Chemistry and you said you have Spanish right?" Alex said as he turned to look at Mike who was also getting up on his feet, while slugging his backpack on his left shoulder.
"Yeah I've got Spanish class now, and from what we discussed we don't have the same class for the final hour either so I i guess see you tomorrow Alex!" Mike said as he shook Alex's hand.
"Yeah see you man, had a great time with you today" Alex replied as he took off, heading for the exit of the classroom.
"Yeah, me too Alex" Alex heard Mike say from behind him.
Getting outside the class, Alex got his white sheet of paper and followed the instructions on where his Chem class was.
He arrived there pretty quickly as it seemed like the science classrooms were pretty close to eachother.
The following hour was more interesting than Math with them even having to do a small experiment but it was also boring at the same time as Alex didn't really know anybody in the class.
He tried to make friends with a girl who was next to him though she just remained frozen and stared at him as if he was some kind of Alien or something.
'Am I just too good-looking?' Alex wondered to himself only to end up shaking his head a moment later.
'This really isn't the time nor place for me to end up becoming a narcissist.' Alex thought to himself jokingly.
The class continued forward and it wasn't long before it was over and Alex was now in front of the door to the last class.
'Art class huh, I used to love it back in high school. It was so free and you could just draw anything you wanted' Alex thought and opened the door, heading inside.
'There's a problem though, I don't have any drawing supplies with me, maybe I should have gotten my bag ready this morning instead of watching Tv' Alex thought as he looked around the class for a free spot.
He saw no free spots besides one, it was at the end of the class on the right side by the windows.
'Cool, the best spot is free' Alex thought until he looked at who was seated there.
Alice Cullen.
'Even cooler, I get to sit next to a hot vampire' Alex thought as his steps got even lighter.
Arriving next to the chair, Alex stopped and asked.
"Hey I'm Alex, is this spot free?"
Alice who was looking outside the window turned around to meet his eyes and then gave a smile as she nodded her head and replied.
"Yeah, it's free, nice to meet you, Alex, I'm Alice," Alice said as she extended her hand towards Alex for a handshake.
Taking her up on it, Alex shook her hand and almost couldn't hold back the wince in his expression.
'Her hand is so damned cold and hard, it's as if I'm shaking hands with an ice block.' Alex thought as he stared at her hand for a split second and then reverted his eyes.
He however didnt forget to ask.
"Uhm, are you all right? Your hands are very cold, you could be sick." Alex said to Alice as he sat down.
"Ah no I just have naturally cold hands, might be anemia or something but I have never really had any issues with my health so it isn't really something I've had to worry about," Alice replied with that same unchaning smile on her face.
'It surely does feel like she is testing me right now' Alex thought to himself as he looked at her smiling face and then a smile graced his face too.
'You think that you can find me out? me? the most masterful liar that even the god Ussop couldn't compare to? heh,' Alex thought to himself as he snickered inwardly at his own jokes.
At that moment, the art professor finally arrived and the class started. He asked the students to take out their drawing tools and start drawing a portrait.
And thus, Alex arrived at his current dilemma, he could see that Alice had enough drawing tools to share but he really didn't want to talk to her right now.
'That feeling of being constantly tried to be pried into and gotten information extracted out of is really strong right now y'know.' Alex thought as he looked at Alice with the corner of his eye and then sighed as he decided to just not care about it.
'Doesn't matter what she tries, she can't really find out much and with me being an entirely different race then she can't even see my future which is probably what set her off in this information-gathering mission or whatever she is doing right now.' Alex thought as he turned to face Alice.
"Hey, do you have any spare drawing tools? I forgot about them at home today" Alex asked as he made his face show an apologetic expression as he asked Alice for help.
Alice turned to him and finally showed a different expression on her face than her always smiling one. this time it was a face of confusion.
"Uh, you forgot your drawing tools at home?" Alice asked confused about the situation.
Alex just looked at her equally confused as he replied
"Uh, yeah, is that really so surprising? Am I not allowed to forget things" Alex asked as he stared at Alice's confused face which quickly disappeared behind her smiling face once more.
"Yeah, I have enough for the both of us, it's no problem if you take some" Alice replied in what Alex could only call a super sweet tone.
'Damned that Jasper, one lucky bastard he is.' Alex thought to himself.
