It's not that I didn't like this new town. Don't get me wrong, I would choose living here over living in Phoenix any day. It was more that I hardly knew anyone and to tell you the truth, was actually kind of happy that I knew no one. I am more of a suffer in silence type, so the fact that no one here knew me or what had happened to me in my past was probably the best damn thing to ever happen to me.
When I arrived at my new school, Forks high, I did not know exactly what to expect. My dad Charlie had warned me that they hardly ever get knew folks around here, and that they would most likely all be crooning over me the minute I stepped through the doors to the school.
This fact nauseated me. I hate getting attention from people; I mean I really hate it. I personally do not see myself as the type of person who anyone really wants to be befriend, so there for when I get attention from people, it makes my self esteem go way down, because I know they are more likely then not only being nice to me because they feel sorry for me.
So as I pulled into the Forks high parking lot and took one look at all of their beating eyes just staring me down (and the fact that my truck sounded like it was seriously in dyer need of a new muffler didn't help) I just about puked right then and there.
But I knew that I had to get this over with, so I turned off my truck, and I stepped out into the damp concrete of the parking lot. It only took about two seconds before some guy named Erin or Eric or something came up beside me and scared the living shit out of me.
"Hey your Isabella Swan right? I'm Eric." He stated in a very sure of himself manner.
"Uh, ya… I prefer Bella actually." I slurred in a quiet mumble.
"Want me to show you around!? What are your classes?! What's your favorite meal to eat at dinner?!" he spat out at the pace of a cheetah running through a field hunting down its next pray.
"Uh, no I can find my way around myself thank you" was all I said as I started trekking off towards the school leaving Eric or whatever his name was behind with an awestruck expression on his face.
Great, I thought to myself, I did even reach the doors and I already feel like crawling into a dark hole and never coming out.
I finally reached the school after walking past tons of kids just staring at me, and entered through the big school doors.
When I got inside I looked around for the front office, and found it with no troubles. I went in and the lady at the front desk who wouldn't stop complementing me on how pretty I was, gave me my schedule and told me how to get to all my classes.
First period I had English, so when the first bell rang to get to class, I put my head and meekly made my way to my English class. I did not even lift my head up as I walked into the class, so I could avoid making eye contact with anyone who was by this time probably just staring me down.
"Isabella, it's nice to have you here" the teacher , the English teacher basically shouted at me in a very enthusiastic welcoming ton, that made me want to run out of the class right then and there. I knew that at this point if they weren't already, everyone must be staring me down, now that he drew so much attention to me by yelling my name.
"You can take a seat right over there" he gestured with his hand to the back of the class, where one empty seat sat, that was right by the window.
Yes, I thought to myself, now I won't have to sit in class knowing that everyone is staring at me from behind. So I made my way to the desk, not daring to look up at anyone.
So I did the same thing in my next class too which was Spanish. I really felt like this method of not talking to anyone and not making any eye contact with them whatsoever was working.
But when the bell for lunch rang I did not exactly know what I was going to do. I could just go to the girls bathroom on the first floor by my Spanish class, or I could be brave and go into the cafeteria, but who would I sit with? And how much attention would be drawn to me if I walked into that cafeteria.
Just then the Eric guy from before came up behind me and wrapped his arm around my waist.
"Come on Bella, your going to come eat lunch with me and my friends" he said giving me no option whatsoever to back out as he gripped his arm tighter around my waist.
We got into the lunch room and I did not look up once. We finally got the table, and I had no choice but to look up and see who he made me sit with as he started introducing them all to me.
"Bella, this is Jessica, Tyler, and Angela." Gesturing towards them as he said each of there names.
They all smiled at me and some even got out the short "Hi" as he spoke their names.
Just then a guy with dirty blonde hair and really blue eyes cleared his throat, and looked at Eric.
"Oh and this is mike…" Eric said in a really fast tone.
"Hey bella" The mike character said in a flirtatious voice as he gave me a quick wink.
I almost wanted to puke when he did that. Because I seriously did not like men coming on to me like that. Not that many did when I was in phoenix, but still, it was gross none the less.
When all I did after he did all that was sway nauseously back and forth, his smile dropped from his face and he looked away embarrassed.
I could tell that this was going to be a long day.
The good news is no one at the table really talked to me much after the whole mike incident. Which was very good for me, I loved not being quizzed about every little thing.
When the lunch bell rang, Eric asked me what I had next and I told him biology in Mr. Banners class, and right after I barely finished Mike shot out of his chair and told me how he had that next too and how he would walk me to class.
Just great I thought to myself, now I have to spend all class with probably one of the most annoying guys I have ever met. PERFECT, I though as he grabbed my hand and pulled me to the biology room.
When we got in there, I could see that there were roughly 10 tables with two chairs at each, which meant I would have to sit right next to someone. Mike already had someone sitting next to him THANK GOD, so I searched the room for any seat that was empty. There was only one, and the person sitting in the other seat at the table was probably the most attractive human being I had ever seen in my life, and really that is saying something because I usually do not find anyone attractive because I try not to have feelings like that for anyone.
He had bronzed tousled hair, and really pale skin, and the most beautiful eyes I had ever seen.
I shuffled my way to that seat, basically shaking because of how nervous I was to sit next to this extremely attractive male.
I finally arrived at the seat, and sat down. I still had my head down because I was much to nervous to actually make eye contact with him. As started the class, I just sat there breathing in how good the guy next to me smelled. It was such a beautiful sent that I can't even describe, but god was it ever good.
I could not believe that I was reacting in this way; I never acted this way over anyone, EVER.
I wanted to know his name; I wanted to speak to him, to run my hand through his hair. But I knew I couldn't, I was already considered a freak at my last school, and I was not going to acquire that reputation here too.
So I spent the majority of the class looking up at the beautiful male that sat only a few feat away from me.
When the bell rang, my heart dropped. I would have to wait a whole day to see this gorgeous boy again and there was nothing I could do but wait.
Fourth period I had gym, horay I thought to myself, the class from hell.
I suck at gym, there is no other way around it, I seriously would rather just sit by myself in a dark room for three hours then endure one full 80 minute class of gym.
So as I made my way into the gym I braced myself for all the pain that was going to be coming my way in these next eighty minutes, and the fact that I could not get that boys face from biology class out of my head did not help one single but either.
I was so right; today's gym class had been a catastrophe. We were starting out the year with a nice game of basketball, and I swear I must have gotten whacked in the face with a ball every five minutes. So as I made my way out of the girl's locker room, I tried my best to hide my red bruised face from everyone around me.

"Great" I moaned as the alarm bell went off. Another fantastic year of school coming my way, I thought sarcastically to myself as I rolled out of bud and hit the ground with a loud thud.
I meekly made my way to the bathroom to shower and brush my teeth, and was in no mood at all to do anything else. But I knew that I had to go to school, seeing as how last year I barely went, and when Carlisle found out he threw an absolute fit over it.
After my nice warm shower, I went and picked out my clothes for the day, and once I was done that I made my way downstairs to the kitchen to grab some toast and make my way to school.
I got into my silver volvo that all the girls swooned over. Mainly because everyone else in this town could never afford such a vehicle, much less know someone my age that is lucky enough to drive one. Money in my family has never been a problem, since Carlisle is basically the best doctor to ever grace the face of the earth. So I basically get whatever I want when I want it.
When I finally arrived at the school, Jasper, Emmet, Rosalie, and of course Alice were all waiting for me. We have all been best friends since basically the first day of kindergarten so we are all really close. Alice and Jasper are dating, and Emmet and Rosalie are dating each other as well. But me I have never really been big on the whole dating thing. Sure I have fucked my fair share of girls, but none of them really meant anything.
"Yo dude, another great year of the big high school"! Emmet yelled at me from across the parking lot.
"Oh yes Emmet another GREAT year of high school" I yelled back rolling my eyes.
I walked over to them and fist punched jasper, and Alice gave me a huge bear hug which I was not in any way in the mood for.
"So Edward" Jasper murmered "You ready to beat your record from last year for most girls fucked in one year."
"Jasper, I did not even do that to beat some gay record, I did it because these Forks girls just cant keep themselves off of me" I said getting more and more pissed off by the minute.
"Yea sure they can't you man whore" Rosalie snapped at me using her im so jealous of all those girls you slept with because you never once showed any preference to me voice.
"You know what you fuck heads, not that this hasn't been the perfect conversation to start off the perfect fucking year im about to have but im going to class, catch you later assholes" I said in the bitchiest tone I could muster up.
I walked into the school after having tons of girls gawk at me and headed to my first class, Social. It's not that I don't like social because I find every subject in school to be super easy. That's basically the reason why I hate school, because all of the bull shit they teach us is so easy that I don't even have to pay attention and I still get perfect grades.
After what felt like the slowest morning of my life, and eating the grossest lunch from the cafeteria of my life I headed to third block, biology.
As soon as I got in a saw that annoying ass kid Mike Newton and he was droning on about some new girl named Bella or some shit. I guessed in my head she probably wasn't as great as all the guys were making her seem. But I heard Mike say how she was in this class and I was a little excited to see what was so fucking great about this girl
As soon as Mike stopped talking about her and quickly changed the subject I knew that she must have entered the room. I heard Eric yell over to Mike so that must have meant he walked her to this class like the suck up little pretty boy he is.
A few seconds later I looked up to see that she was headed my way and my God she was ever as gorgeous as they said. Possibly even better then they made her out be. Fuck I thought to myself. That is a fine piece of ass.
She came over and sat down next to me but not once made eye contact, she just kept her head down like some scared little girl on there first day of kindergarten. However every so often I caught her focusing her vision in my direction through the curtains of her hair.
I want to know this girl, I thought to myself, but wait no way in hell am I having feelings like this for anyone else. What am I thinking; I have never been one to want to know a girl. Ya sure I have always been one to want to fuck a girl, but I have never really wanted to get to know one.
I have to get this girl out of my head, there is no way I am going to ever have deep feelings for her, no, no, no.
Just then the bell rang, and I saw her jump up out of her desk, and run out of the class like it was the fire alarm that just went off or something. Fucking girls and there weirdness, I thought to myself while walking out of class.
Thank god I had a free period this block or I would have died. This day has been so mother fucking long and I don't want to spend on more minute at this school, I thought to myself as I was walking to the direction of the doors leading outside the school.
Just as i was about to open them, I saw from the corner of my eye the girls gym class. I had always been on to want to watch those girls in their tight spandex shorts play a nice game of volleyball, but this time it was not them I noticed, it was the girl who just waked Jessica Stanley in the face with a volleyball, it was her, it was Bella.
I walked closer the windows of the gym to catch Jessica yelling at Bella and asking her where she learned to play volleyball.
Bella just stood there and blushed the cutest fucking blush I have ever seen, and meekly made her way to the bench on the side of the gym.
Damn, what a girl I thought to myself. I wonder what would happen if I went over there and talked to her. I wonder what she would say and do if held her head in my hand and ran my thumb over those bright red soft looking cheeks of hers. FUCK I thought, I need to stop this right now! And with that I walked away towards the doors again and this time I opened them and made my way outside to the parking lot.
