I know I know I know!! I shouldn't be starting another story right now!! But I'm having serious writer's block for my other ones, and I thought this one would be fun. All human. Whoo!! I know there have probably been a lot of stories like this but..oh well. Disclaimer- I don't own Twilight. Duh. Considering this is FAN fiction. So I would have to be a fan of the series I created myself. Which would just be really weird and stuck up.
So without further ado!
You're Never Gonna Fit In Much, Kid.

Meet the Geek
My name is Edward Manson. I live with my mom, Esme, and my dad, Carlise, in a big house just outside of Forks, Washington. I'm in the middle of my junior year at Forks High School. I'm labeled a "geek" or "nerd" most of the time, because I like to read and I don't bother with my appearance much. The teasing used to really get to me back in middle school, but I've all but grown immune to it by now. I have a few guys I call my friends, like Eric Yorkie and Tyler Crowley, but we aren't close or anything. We basically hang around each other so we don't have to eat lunch alone.
I'm an only child, but I have two cousins who live in this tiny town as well. Alice and Emmett Cullen. Alice is the same age as I am, and Emmett is a year older. We are nothing alike. Alice is one of most popular girls in school, a cheerleader, and Emmett is the captain of the football team. Emmett is dating Alice's best friend, the beautiful Rosalie Hale, and Alice is dating Rosalie's twin brother Jasper. It's a little bit confusing but not exactly strange in this small of a town. Alice used to try and be nice to me, but gave up due to my hopelessness, and Emmett only talks to me at family gatherings now.
Rosalie and Alice used to have another best friend, too. Isabella Swan. I had a huge crush on her since I was 5, but then she moved to live with her mom in Phoenix when she turned 10, and I haven't seen her since. I had thought I never would, until one day in the beginning of January. I came home, a tiny bit upset-the teasing was especially bad today, because both Eric and Tyler were absent- but I tried my hardest not to let it get to me. As soon as I walked in, my mom ran up to me.
"Edward! Did you hear the new? You remember Isabella Swan, don't you? She's coming back here! To live with her father again! Isn't that exciting!" She had known about my childish crush, and apparently she had not forgotten.
"Really?" I managed. I didn't really care. I knew better know- she would never like someone like me.
"She's starting at your school next week! My sister told me, Alice and Rosalie were so excited about it.."
Great. She would be starting Monday, then. And today was Friday. I was
scared to see her now. What if my crush came back without my permission? It could only hurt me.
Meet the Girl
I'm Isabella Swan. Bella. I just got settled in my new home in Forks. I had sent myself hereto give my mom and Phil some space. It was the most selfless thing I had ever done. I already miss Pheonix. I miss the beaches and warm weather and all my friends. .
I start school tomorrow, at Forks High. I know, what a creative name. The one bright side in this rainy town was seeing Alice and Rosalie again. I had missed them so much. Not that I wasn't happy about seeing Charlie again. It's just that I had yet to actually see him. He had some emergency at work or something.
I ended up crying myself to sleep that night. But the next morning Alice came over at 6 in the morning to help me pick out my clothes for school. I hadn't realized how much I had really missed her until then, and I ended up crying again. After I calmed down and she was done laughing she drove me to school in a bright yellow Porsche. I swear that girl is a human energizer bunny. She talked nonstop the whole time. But then we got there and she had to go to a before-school cheerleading meeting, and I had to get my schedule from the office. She hugged me and promised to meet me at lunch, and I walked to the office alone, nervous.

Edward's POV
Beep. Beep. Beep.
Man, I gotta get the off button on this thing fixed.
Beep. Beep. Beep.
I threw it at the wall.
Finally, it stopped. About time.
Ugh. School. And..Bella would be there. I got dressed, wondering if she would still look the same. I ate breakfast, wondering if she still went by Bella. I drove to school and walked to homeroom, wondering if I still liked her.
I got to homeroom just as the bell rang, but the teacher wasn't there yet. She walked in a second later, dragging in a blushing dark haired beauty.
It was…Bella. Wow. She looked…wow.
"Class, this is Isabella Swan, the new student."
"Bella," she corrected her.
"So Bella, why don't you tell the class where you moved from?" Geesh, she was talking like we were in first grade. I saw Bella's cheeks go even redder- so she was still shy, then. But then she smiled in my direction. For one glorious moment, I thought she was smiling at me, but then I heard Rosalie, who sat right behind me, squeal "Hi Bella!"
Well I felt dumb.
Bella returned Rosalie's greeting, and then she told the class that she was from Pheonix.
The teacher nodded. "Well Bella, you have been assigned to shadow another student for the first week, I have the name here, hold on…" She began searching through stacks of paper on her desk. I could practically hear the boys in the class hoping it was them, and also most of the popular kids as well, like Rosalie, of course, and Jessica Stanley and Angela Weber.
"Aha! Found it!" She pulled out a piece of paper. "Bella, you will be shadowing Edward Manson."
Holy crap. That was ME.
