Found- Chapter 1: It's You
'Beep

Ugh. This sucks. Why does school start so early in the morning. Hi, my name is Isabella, but I go by Bella, I'm seventeen and I am an orphan. I'm five eight and have brown hair with blond highlights (Pic on Profile), and brown eyes. I now live in Forks, Washington. Charlie, my dad, made me move here. He thought it would be safer for me. It feels so weird, him not being here with me, but he had to stay with the club in Phoenix. Today is going to be my first day at Forks High. This should be interesting. I've never been to a real school. In the orphanage they had school for us there and with Charlie I did an online school.
I got up, brushed my teeth, and took a shower. I blow dried my hair and curled it. I went to my closet (Pic on Profile), in the house (Pic on Profile)Charlie got me, and looked for something to wear. It was really hard to find something appropriate. Most of my clothes were from the club and those didn't exactly scream first day of school. I really need to go shopping no matter how much I hate it.
I'm really glad I had organized my closet the night before. I had a specially made closet built just before I came here. We used the extra bedroom next to mine and broke down the wall separating the closet and the next room and replaced it with a door. It's like having two closets in one. The best part is the privacy. If someone came and looked in my closet they wouldn't even notice the door.
After looking for a while I found a pair of black jeans, a cobalt blue tank top, black ankle boots, a black blazer, a silver two finger ring, a silver chain necklace with a black flower, and last , but certainly not least, my black and blue friendship bracelet. (Pic on Profile)
Every time I look down at the bracelet I remember the boy, my best friend. I remember his unusual bronze hair and piercing green eyes. I remember how nice he was to me. We did everything together until he got transferred when I was ten. That was the year I decided to run away from the orphanage. I lived in and out of shelters. After a couple years I found myself in Phoenix and that's where I found Charlie and the club.
I walked out of my room and went to the kitchen. I ate a bowl of cereal, washed the bowl, and went outside to my dark blue Ford Mustang GT (Pic on Profile). I drove to the school. It was still empty so I just parked near the front. I got out of the car and went to the front office. I walked up to a lady behind a desk. She looked up and said, "How may I help you?"
"My name is Isabella Swan, I'm new here and I need my schedule."
"Ahh yes, here is your schedule, map of the school, and slip that you need to get signed by all of your teachers and return by the end of the day."
"Ok." I said and quickly walked out of there. I looked at the map and walked to my first class. When I walked in all of the students got quiet and stared at me. I walked up to the teacher and handed him my slip. He signed it and I went to sit in the only open seat next to a girl with ripped jeans, a pink shirt, a black bomber jacket, black pumps, brown eyes, and dark curly hair. (Pic on Profile) When I got to my seat she turned to me and said, "Hi, my name is Jessica. You must be the new girl."
"Uh… yeah, my name is Bella." The next couple of classes went the same with Jessica talking to me the whole time and the occasional person asking questions. When it was time for lunch Jessica asked me to sit with her and her friends. I said yes ,of course. Where else was I supposed to go? I got my lunch and went to the table. I listened to the many conversations and meet this really nice girl named Angela. She had long brown hair and brown eyes, and had on a purple shirt, jeans, and black hi top converse. (Pic on Profile) That's when they walked in. I tapped Jessica on the shoulder and asked, "Who are they?" She looked up to see who I meant, though she probably already knew by the tone of my voice.
"The Cullens. They're Dr. and Mrs. Cullen's foster kids. They moved down here from Alaska like, a few years ago." Jessica said.
"They, kinda keep to themselves." Said Angela.
"Yeah 'cause they're all together, like TOGETHER together. The blonde girl, that's Rosalie, and the big dark-haired guy, Emmett, they're like a thing. I'm not even sure that's legal." Jessica said.
"Jess they're not actually related." Angela said.
"Yeah, but they live together. It's weird, and okay, the little dark-haired girl's Alice she's really weird, and, um, she's with Jasper, the blonde one. Uh...Dr. Cullen's like this...foster dad slash matchmaker." Jessica said.
"Maybe he'll adopt me." Angela said.
That's when I spotted him. He had the same unusual bronze colored hair and piecing green eyes, but it couldn't be my Eddie Bear. What would he be doing here? I had to find out.
"Who's he?" I asked.
"That's Edward Cullen. He's totally gorgeous, obviously. But apparently nobody here's good enough for him. Like I care, you know, uh. So...yeah." Jessica answered.
Oh My Gosh! I can't believe it's really him. Even though he has a different last name I can still tell. I mean what are the odds of another boy with the same hair, eyes, name, and was adopted. I started to get up but Jessica grabbed my arm and said, "Where are you going?"
"I'm going to talk to them." I said as I wiggled my arm free from her grasp. As I was walking away I heard her say "Don't waste your time." I continued walking over to their table. People were staring at me as I walked. When I got behind Edward's chair I bent down and whispered in his ear, "Hi Eddie Bear". He stiffened and whispered "Belly Boo?" I smiled and said, "I'm glad you remember me." At that he turned his head around and looked at me. He was just as gorgeous as I remembered. All of a sudden he grabbed me by my waist onto his lap and hugged me so tight I couldn't breathe.
"Um… Eddie… can't… breathe." I said and he immediately loosed his grip but didn't let go of me.
"I'm sorry I just can't believe it's you. You look so different but still the same. I've never even seen you without your pigtails. How have you been. Where do you live. I mean I know you live somewhere in Forks but…" I put my finger on his lips to stop his rambling and laughed a little.
"You still look cute when you ramble." Right after I said that I heard someone clear their throat. I looked up and saw four confused faces. I had forgotten they were there. "Oh, hi." I said blushing. "You still look cute when you blush." Edward whispered in my ear. I blushed a little more at that comment and he chuckled.
"Who are you?" said the beautiful blonde girl, Rosalie I think was her name.
"Sorry. I'm Bella." I said.
"Hi my name is Alice, this is my boyfriend Jasper, my brother Emmett, and his girlfriend Rosalie and I see you know Edward already." Alice said to me.
"It's nice to meet you all." I said.
"How do you know Eddie Boy here?" This time it was Emmett who asked the question. I heard Edward growl and grumble something about not calling him Eddie.
"We grew up together." I said simply.
"Wait your Bella, THE BELLA!" Alice said excitedly. I turned around, looked at Edward, and raised an eyebrow. He seemed a little embarrassed but he answered for me. "Yeah this is Bella." Alice squealed and started mumbling about shopping and sleepovers. "Is she always like this?" I asked Edward. "Yes." He told me. Then Alice got my attention again. "You should come over for a sleepover tomorrow night since it's a Friday and then we can shop on Saturday. This is going to be so fun. I can tell we're going to best friends." She said all in one breath. I smiled and said "Thanks Alice. I would love to go to a sleepover and go shopping." "Who are you and what have you done with the Bella I know and love?" Edward said. I had to laugh. "Well shopping isn't my favorite thing to do, but I need clothes." I said honestly. I couldn't just walk around in corsets and miniskirts. That wouldn't be appropriate.
The bell rang signaling the end of lunch. I got up and started to walk with Edward to our next class. "You know blue is still my favorite color on you." He said. I blushed of course. "I love it when you blush." He said as we walked in the classroom and took our seats. "Hey what was Alice talking about?"
"What do you mean?"
"The whole 'Bella, THE BELLA' thing. What did you tell them about me?"
"Oh, that," he said nervously. "I just told them how great of friends we were."
"Ok…" I said suspiously but before I could question him more the teacher came in with a dusty old TV and told us we would be watching a movie.
We sat next to each other in the dark room. I wanted to touch him. He looked so beautiful. I looked down at my hands to stop my staring. I saw my friendship bracelet and started playing with it. Then I felt something being shoved under my elbow and looked up. It was a note from Edward. (Edward , Bella)
I see you still have your bracelet.
Yeah I wear it every day. I then looked over to his wrist. He didn't have his bracelet on. He had on some kind of bracelet with a crest in it's place. (Pic on Profile) So then I decided to write, I guess you don't wear yours anymore. What, are you too cool for me now?
No. I wear mine every day too. I just wear it under the bracelet with our crest on it. Just as I was about to write back the teacher said, "Edward, Bella pay attention." We both nodded and looked up at the screen.
