Chapter One

The sun blinded Isabella as she walked out of her dark house. She had to shield her eyes, in fear that she might go blind.

"Why must the sun be so bright?" she mumbled to herself as she made her way down the street, her back pack hanging off one shoulder.

"Maybe because it's a big ball of flame?" a boy questioned her as he appeared besides her. Bella jumped while turning to the boy walking besides her.

"Daniel! You scared me." She exclaimed hugging him.

"Sorry…" he said as they continued to walk down the road and to their high school.

"It's alright. So how are you? I heard Karen broke up with you. Are you okay?" Bella asked Daniel as they made their way into the school of b hell. /b
"Yeah she did, but I'm alright... it was bound to happen anyways..." he shrugging. Bella nodded in a knowing way before leading the way to her locker.

"Hey Bella, I'm going to head to class now. Okay?" He asked as she started to put her combo into the lock. She nodded her head.

"Okay, I'll see you later then." She said hugging him before returning to her locker. He nodded as he walked off to French, his first period class. Isabella started again at her locker. She tried and tried to open it but it was being stubborn. She growled at it and kicked it.

"Ow…" she mumbled as her foot throbbed.

"Hey um would it be too hard to ask for you to not kick my locker?" a boy asked her. She looked up and her eyes met his beautiful green hazel ones. She blushed and looked away and back at the locker she had thought was hers. That's when she realized hers was the one next to it... She blushed redder before looking back at the boy. He was smiling at her.

"I'm so sorry!" she said before moving over and working on her actual locker.

"I'm Frank." He said as he opened his locker, at the same time she did.

"Isabella. But people usually call me Bella." She said as she grabbed her English book.

"You have English first?" he asked. She nodded.

"Cool I do too." He said as he put his other books into his locker and grabbed his English book.

"Are you a new student?" Bella blurted out. She looked at him afraid he might not be, and hed get mad. He smiled and nodded. She breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay. I thought so. I haven't seen you around." She said as they made their way to Ms. Marshall's class. They walked in and were greeted by a blow of noise, which ended as soon as it came to their ears. Everybody stared at them. Bella sighed before leading Frank to Marshall. Frank looked around at the staring faces with a confused look on his face.

"Ma'am?" Bella asked the teacher lady, who looked at her.

"Yes?" The teacher lady asked her, before looking on to Frank.

"Um, Franks a new student." Bella said quietly. The teacher lady, who Frank came to know as Ms. Marshall, looked upon him. Frank smiled nervously at her. Marshall nodded before standing up and facing the class.

"Class… class… CLASS!" She yelled over the class who had gone back to whatever they had been doing at the time. The students all stopped what they had been doing and looked over at the two kids at the front of class.

"Class, this is…"

"Frank…" Frank mumbled. Bella silently slithered away and sat at her desk in the back of the room.

"Ah, yes Frank. Class this is Frank, a new student from New Jersey. Class, welcome Frank to our school." Marshall said cheerfully.

"Welcome to Auburn High, Frank." The class murmured in monotone.

"Auburn hell more like…" Bella mumbled under her breath as she sat there, watching Frank, whom had become quite uncomfortable.

"Well let me see your schedule boy!" Marshall snapped. Frank looked taken aback for a moment before pulling out his schedule and quickly handing it to her.

"Ah yes, raise your hand if you have Dick next." Bella and Tina, the most popular girl in school raised their hands.

"Good. How about Watanabe for third?" Again Bella's hand went into the air, along with a boy whom Bella didn't know. Marshall continued to read off the classes that Frank had, Bella's hand going up every time except twice. For PE and Horticulture, Bella had PE the same period just; girls and boys had different teachers…

"What was her problem?" Frank asked Bella as they left class. Bella shrugged.

"I think she's bipolar" Bella said smiling. They reached their lockers and opened them. They both pulled out their Algebra books and closed their lockers at the same time. The only difference between what happened when they shut them was; there wasn't a person behind Frank's locker. Bella jumped, and Daniel smiled.

"Hey sweet stuff, how you doin?" Daniel asked pretending to hit on her. Frank raised his eyebrow at Bella, who giggled.

"Oh Daniel! Stop that!" Bella said, whacking his arm.

"Sorry, Bella… No need to get physical. Abusive woman!" Daniel said rubbing his arm.

"If you don't stop you'll get more than just a whack in the arm…" Bella said before turning to Frank, who was looking mildly confused.

"Frank this is my best friend Daniel. Daniel this is Frank. He's a new student." Bella said.

"Nice to meet you Frank my boy." Daniel said before shaking Frank's hand, laughter etched on his face. Frank smiled, still looking confused.

"Daniel?" Bella asked.

"Yes Bella dear?"

"How many pop tarts have you eaten this morning?" Bella asked as they all walked to Dicks Algebra class. Daniel had this class with them.

"Why do you ask?" Daniel asked, trying to look innocent.

"Your being weirder than normal…" Bella said smiling at Frank, who smiled back.

"4 or 5… or maybe 7…" Daniel said as they walked into the classroom.

"7 pop tarts…? Or 7 bags?" Bella asked shocked.

"Bags?" Daniel asked smiling trying to be innocent.

"Holy crap Daniel!!" Bella exclaimed her jaw dropping. She looked at Frank who had the same expression. Bella groaned as they made their way to their seats.

"Daniel, you need to calm down… you're going to get me-"

"Hennequin if you can't be quiet please leave the room." Dick said. Bella groaned again before turning her glare to Daniel, who was smiling innocently at her.

"I hate you Daniel." She muttered. Daniel just smiled.

"No you don't, you love me!" He whispered.

"In your dreams…" She said before looking back to the front of the room, where Daniel was taking roll.

"Hennequin is here… Iero? Who's Iero?" He asked. The kids started to look around, and Frank raised his hand. Bella smiled at him, which he gladly returned.

"Ah. Class this if Frank, our newest student from…?"

"New Jersey."

"New Jersey? Wow, that's all the way across the country!" a kid exclaimed. Frank nodded his head, a sad expression on his face.
