I wanted to wait till my other story was complete but this story just wouldn't let me wait. Hope you enjoy and let me know what you think.


Chapter 1 Welcome to the Jungle

EPOV

I was in this beautiful meadow when, all the sudden, it felt like the grass beneath me was moving. Not like grass moves but how a bed moves when someone is jumping up and down on it. I was confused. Why would grass be like a bed? It was then that I heard an all too familiar voice. "EDWARD! Wake up! You'd think me jumping up and down on the bed would wake you up." My sister Alice said.

I groaned and said, "Isn't there a nicer way to wake me up sis?"

"Well, duh, but it doesn't work on you. I already tried that. If you don't start getting ready we will both be late for our first day at our new school."

I got up out of bed and stretched. "Do I have enough time for a shower?"

"Yes, but only if you hurry. I'll be in the living room waiting for you," she replied.

I got some clean clothes from the closet and headed for the shower. When I was done I grabbed my backpack, iphone and car keys. I rushed down the stairs because I know how Alice would hate to be late on her first day.

"Took you long enough, brother dear. You'd think being a guy it wouldn't take you that long." She smirked.

"Alice, it took me a whole 15 minutes! Don't start with me, it is already gonna be bad enough today."

Alice looked at me in an understanding way. She knew how I hated meeting new people. We were complete opposites. She loved to be the center of attention, while I did not.

We headed to my amazing car, a silver Volvo. I know great car, right? Mom and Dad said Alice could not take her car to school. I'm not surprised, a yellow Porsche would get stolen in a second. I mean I think it would here. I don't really know. We just arrived in this state two days ago. I have no idea why my Dad just had to get a job in Oklahoma, in the middle of nowhere. I knew nothing about it, guess I would have to learn more.

All to soon we were at the school. I dreaded this moment, when everyone in the parking lot would look our way and stare at us. My Dad was going to be a doctor at the hospital here. It was a small town, so I'm sure everyone knew we were coming. I step out of the car and look around. Yep, everyone is staring, like they had never seen a new person before. I ask my sister, "Do you know where the office is? Dad, didn't tell me."

As I was asking her this a guy walked up to us. He was a little bit taller than me and he looked like a body-builder. "I can show you where the office is, if you would like." The guy said. "I'm Emmett by the way. You must be Dr. Cullen's kids."

My sister replied, "Yes, could you please show us? We ARE Dr. Cullen's kids. I'm Alice and this is Edward."

"Good to meet you. If you will just follow me I will show you the way. May I ask what grades you two are in?"

"I'm a Senior and my sister is a Junior," I replied.

"That's cool," he said. "I'm a Senior. My sister, Bella, is a Junior. If you would like, I can ask her if she would show you around today, Alice."

"That sounds great, Emmett." She replied with a smile. "I would love that!"

"I can show you around, Edward, if you want." He told me.

"That sounds good," I told him. This tall, leggy blonde walked up to Emmett and said, "Who's your new friends?"

He told her our names and then told us, "This is my girlfriend, Rosalie."

"I should warn you, Edward, this school is like a jungle. There are a lot of tigers here that would love to just eat you up." Rosalie said.

"What do you mean?" I asked, confused.

"He means, brother dear, the girls are gonna love you here. Duh! You should watch out they are gonna pounce on you."

"Is he one of those clueless guys who doesn't realize how gorgeous he is?" Rosalie asked.

"Hey! I'm gorgeous too, Rosie baby!" Emmett whined.

"I know, that's why your with me." She said with a smile.

"Yes, he is clueless." My sister replied.

"Please stop talking about me like I'm not right there." I said.

"Sorry, we will stop." Alice replied. "We seriously need to find you a girlfriend in this town. It might help your mood."

"Having a gf/bf does not make a person who they are and just what is wrong with my mood?" I replied heatedly.

"It doesn't make a person, that is true, but it would make me happy to see you happy. Sometimes your are too down in the dumps for me. That's all."

"Well I'm sorry I make your existence so rough." I said, sticking my tongue out at her good-naturedly. "Not all of us like to bounce off the walls 24/7."

"Are either of you in any extra-curriculars?" Rosalie asked us.

"We are both in band. Edward runs track and I would like to try out for the cheerleading squad or dance team. I was in both at my old school." Alice answered for us.

"That is soo cool!" Rosalie said, jumping up and down. I could already tell Alice and Rosalie were going to get along fine. "Both of us are in band too! My brother and Emmett's sister are in band with us. I play the flute, Emmett is on trumpet, Jasper plays alto sax and Bella is on clarinet."

"That's cool. I play flute too and Edward plays alto sax like your brother. This is going to be a great year, I can already tell!"

What was with those girls and their squealing? I was getting a headache from hearing the two of them.

"You get used to the squealing, Edward. The headaches go away eventually too." Emmett said.

It was like the guy could read my mind, I was sure we would get along great. Maybe this would be a good year after all.

We got our schedules from the office. I had the exact same schedule as Emmett and evidently Jasper too. Rosalie told Alice that the two of them and Bella had the exact same schedule too. I wonder if the office planned that. Help the new kids find their classes by putting them in all the same classes as a few others. Oh well, that's not a big deal, I couldn't get lost with two people having the same schedule as me.

Rosalie took Alice to their first class and Emmett led me to ours.

I breezed through my first three classes and now it was time for my favorite, band. After band was lunch, we were going to meet all of their gang at lunch and I was actually excited about it. I had found that Jasper and I were a lot alike. All three of us guys got along great, I was glad I had made friends so fast. It was usually not that easy for me to do. We had to walk a few blocks to the fine arts center and then we were in the room I had been waiting for.

Alice and I did not bring our instruments today because we didn't want to leave them in the car for someone to take. The band director introduced himself as Mr. Scott and told us we could watch from our sections for today. He sat me next to Jasper and Alice next to Rosalie.

Once I was sitting were I was suppost to, Jasper pointed out Bella in the clarinets. She was gorgeous. He then pointed out a few more friends of theirs. Angela played clarinet like Bella. Ben, who was dating Angela, played trumpet like Emmett.

I wonder if Jasper and Bella are dating, since the rest of the group is. I asked him and he told me they were just good friends and nothing more. I felt relieved to hear that. Maybe she would go out with me sometime?


A/N: Well, that was the first chapter of my new story. I actually got all of this chapter done before my other story. I'm going to try and get the other story out late tonight or tomorrow morning. Hope you will continue reading, I have lots planned for them. : )
