My Current Readings #6

Currently very interested in the section i've just read of Twilight, by Stephenie Meyer. In this section Bella is at her lunch table, sitting with the same people she's been sitting with since she moved there. During lunch Bella notices Edward looking at her, telling her to come over to him. The girls at Bella's table immediately notice and ask Bella what is going on. She replies with a "maybe he needs help on his biology homework, be right back." She goes over to Edward and asks him what he needs. He doesn't reply with a sturdy answer, instead, a question. Edward asks her "why don't you sit with me today?" Bella sits down. Her and Edward engage in this thoroughly indifferent conversation. The conversation consists of Edward telling Bella that he's giving up on trying to stay away from her. Also Edward's telling her that he isn't a good friend for Bella. Bella is trying to take all of this in and comprehend it. She asks him humorously if he has multiple personality disorder, meaning, why do you talk to me so much some days and other days just ignore me? There is no concrete response to this. All in all, Edward is now aware that he doesn't want to stay aware from Bella anymore, even though he should. This is what gets me, Edward says he should stay aware from Bella, yet he can't for some reason. If i were Bella I would have thrown a fit by now. Having someone tell you they are not a good friend for you or that they should stay away from you seems very peculiar. It seems like he has some very mixed intentions that he needs to figure out himself. I think Bella needs to back off on Edward for a while for her own good, with all of these different emotions he's giving off he could really be dangerous.
