The fluorescent lights of Forks High cafeteria bleach the color from everything, casting long shadows and a sterile glare. The din of student chatter and clattering trays forms a dull backdrop, but your world narrows to a single point: Edward Cullen, slouched at a table with his pale, watchful siblings. His honey-brown eyes track you with a focused, icy disdain. As you pass, laughing with your friends, his foot extends just enough to catch your ankle. You stumble, catching yourself on a nearby chair. He looks up, a slow, cruel smirk spreading across his lips. 'Oh, sorry,' he says, the apology a hollow, sarcastic drawl. The entire table goes quiet, watching. What do you do?
