Chapter One: Arrival
The ride to school was the same as everyday. My truck roared in Charlie's Drive as I kicked it to life, the rain pelted down on the windshield promising another dreary day in forks. In the three months of my living in forks, nothing of consequence had happened. I had made friends, Charlie Bought me a truck, but other than that, each day passed the same as the previous. I felt the presence of security finally settling in, leaving phoenix behind and accepting forks as my new home.
I pulled up in the school parking lot cutting the engine as soon as I could to detract attention away from my truck. It wasn't the fact that the truck was old; a metal cocoon rusting and peeling from its years of wear and tear; it was the fact that the deafening engine resembled more of a roar then a purr. Charlie had told me that Billy's son, Jacob Black, had kept the Truck in shape for Billy, I found myself wishing in vain that he could have done more for the engine.
When I opened the door of my truck, hastily jumping out, something other then Tyler Crowley's White van seized my attention, a shiny silver Volvo. I had only been living in forks for three months but it had always occurred to me that people fit in around here. On my first day, driving up to school I was worried that my ancient Chevy would look out of place in forks. It didn't. Old Cars Seemed the Fashion around here, or more so the necessity, Apart from the one new exception.
It occurred to me that I wasn't the only one that had noticed the Volvo. A crowd of people had assembled around the trunk of the car, some in awe, some utterly amazed, I could only think of one thing; Great, New Kid.
The chattering started when I walked into the cafeteria. The buzz of "the new kid" had traveled insanely throughout the school; the excitement in the air was almost tangible. I scooted into my seat next to mike. Mike shook his Damp blonde hair from his eyes, and smiled a crinkly eyed smile up at me.
"Hey Bells!"
"Hey Mike" I replied.
"You seen the new Kid?" Mikes eyes scanned the rest of the lunchroom.
"Nah" I didn't see what the fuss was about. I thought back to my first day three months ago, walking into the lunch room, 350 eyes following me around the cafeteria, eager and hesitant at the same time. I felt a sudden rush of empathy for whoever "the new kid" was.
Jessica's Gasp pulled me back to reality and she leant across my table and tapped my shoulder.
"Bella, look at him!" She Whispered.
She didn't need to. My eyes were glued to the most godlike figure I had ever seen. He had a boyish face, his jaw perfectly angular and soft at the same time. His Bronze like hair fell shabbily around his
handsome face, creating the perfect frame to his features. His eyes were a deep emerald green, brighter than any I had seen before, suggesting such depth that I was awe struck. His Movements were graceful, more graceful then I could have ever imagined someone to move. A small crooked smile pulled at the corners of his lips, revealing a set of perfectly aligned teeth.
I suppressed the urge to gasp as Jessica had done, only for the fact that This Amazing, Inhumanely beautiful Figure was walking over to the table where I sat. I dropped my eyes down to my uneaten apple, a hot flush covering my neck and cheeks. Brilliant, just what I need.
I felt his presence at the table before I saw it. I didn't dare to look up, I didn't know what to expect.
His glorious voice sounded, making me blush a deeper shade of pink. "May I join you? My name is Edward Cullen"
Mike took the liberty of answering for us, as Jessica, Angela and I were obviously beyond words. I still hadn't looked up; I could imagine what the others would look like, Jessica staring, mouth open, Angela smiling politely, and Mike with a slightly territorial look, a warning more then a welcoming. "Yeah sure, take a seat."
I willed myself to look up, I knew that it was getting past the point of rude now but I couldn't bring myself to meet his gaze.
I shifted my head so that my eyes were directly on Jessica's. She was looking at me expectantly, as if wondering what the hell I was doing. I was wondering the exact same thing.
"I think I'll head off now, I have biology next, don't want to be late" I mumbled a few goodbyes whilst gathering my bags, still looking down. As I hurried from the table, I heard Edward's Musical voice from behind me, excusing himself for the same reason as I had.
I knew that he was following me; I didn't know if he would be mad or upset, I just didn't feel like I could face him. My behavior was totally irrational, why the heck was I running away from him? What had he done to deserve this sort of behavior? I thought these questions through but they weren't enough to even my pace, in fact, I stepped it up, urging my legs into a half jog- half walk.
"Bella!?" I heard his voice from behind me; it worried me how I could know who called my name after hearing him speak only once.
"Bella, I wont chase after you all day, just wait for one minute" his voice sounded closer now, I knew that he would be offended if I broke into a run. I thought back again to my first day and another wave of empathy rolled over me. I sighed and slowed down, finally turning around to face him.
Yep, he still looks like a God; I shouldn't be surprised that he hasn't changed a bit from a whole seven minutes ago! But I was, I was as taken aback by his masculine beauty as I had been the first time, the blow felt like a punch in the gut.
He was smiling down at me expectantly. I knew I had to apologize.
"Look, Edward-"I started.
"I'm Sorry"
"What?" wait, he had taken my line. I was the one that needed to apologize, I stared at him, my mouth opening and closing without a sound. I'm pretty sure he will be impressed with my impression of a goldfish!
But he continued, "I'm sorry if I, err, frightened you that was never my intention."
He looked down at me again, curiously, I guessed he was waiting for a reply but I was still wowing him with my animal impersonations.
"I just figured that being "the old new kid" you might have been able to show me around" He smiled down at me, a crooked smile that took my breath away, or trapped it in my throat to be exact.
He must have taken my silence as an acceptance because he wheeled around and headed back in the direction of biology. He might have still believed that I was in a rush for bio if I hadn't been running the wrong way. Stupid, Stupid, Stupid!
He turned to face me but carried on walking backwards, still smiling, and said "I'll save you a seat". With that he turned the right way and walked past the corner and out of sight. Wait, I was supposed to be the one saving the seats, he hadn't even been here a day and he seemed to fit in comfortably, compatible with the rest of the school. And he had offered to save me a seat, like I was "the new kid". For some reason, it felt like my first day allover again.
