Ok, so. I'm back! I haven't done a story in awhile. I actually think that my old story got deleted. Oh well. But I was in class the other day and this idea popped into my head and I had to write it down. Then, the next thing you know, I was writing a chapter…then 2 chapters…and so on. So here's my new story! Read and review to tell me what you think!

Also, the chapters will come every other day because I'm constantly busy with school. Unfortunately, school comes first…then lacrosse. Haha

DISCLAIMER: I do not own any of the Twilight characters or setting or anything. All of that genius belongs to the amazing Stephenie Meyer. I do, however, own the story line. But that's pretty much the only thing I own.

Also, be aware that I change the POV between Bella and Edward.

Temptation

Chapter 1

Bella's POV:

RING!!!

Ugh. The worst sound ever. The start of another school day. It's bad enough going to school in general, but starting at a new school mid-semester? Just kill me now.

I was already dreading my classes. Just by the looks of everyone in this school, I was not convinced that this was going to be okay.

I quickly stopped by the office to get my schedule. But that didn't go as planned. That's when it all started…

"Hey, it's the new girl."

"Isabella Swan, right?"

"Oh yeah, I heard she was coming here."

"Hey Isabella! Welcome to Forks!"

I felt like I was getting tossed back and forth like a ball. I guess that's what happens when you move to a small town. There are no secrets.

I pushed my way through the crowd of people and out of the office as fast as I could. Thankfully, no one followed me. I just had to focus on getting to my class.

As I was heading down the hallway, that's when I first saw him. A guy who was so good looking that I gasped. And I never gasp to the looks of guys. This is a big step for me.

His golden brown hair fell over his forehead making it look effortless. His brown eyes seemed to be bait as they were luring me in. His smile was so white and gorgeous that I felt like he should be in one of those gum whitening commercials. He was…he was…amazingly gorgeous. He looked like the picture perfect boyfriend. What could it hurt if I go say hi? But as I started walking towards him, I stopped. There, in his arms, was a beautiful girl. Cheerleader…figures…

I sighed, accepting defeat. Oh well. But I couldn't turn away. I liked seeing how he moved. As he kissed the girl, I got a feeling of jealousy. What the heck? Why was I jealous? I don't even know the guy!

As he said goodbye to the girl, I decided I should get to class. That would not be good getting to my first class late on my first day of a new school.

But just as I was about to leave, I saw something that brought anger to me. It was that guy. He was kissing a girl again. A different girl. I couldn't believe it. What a jerk! Every nice thought I had of him in those 2 minutes of seeing him flew out the window. The kind of guy he was is the kind of guys that I stay away from. I couldn't stand that type of people. I've had bad memories back in Phoenix and I had no plan on returning to those memories. I just knew I had one thought that I had to remember: stay away from guys like him. And that's exactly what I planned to do.

I reluctantly walked into class. Ugh. Biology. I hated biology. I had to take it in Phoenix and I thought I would be done with it forever. Well, I was wrong.

I walked up to the teacher to get my Biology book and he told me to sit at the back table. Thankfully, the table was empty. Now, all I had to do was pray that no one sat in the seat next to me.

As the late bell rang, I let out a breath I didn't realize I was holding. Yes! I had a table to myself!

Five minutes passed and the teacher was already writing 5 pages worth of notes on the board. Then, the door opened. Slowly, I looked up hoping it wasn't someone late to class since the only seat open was the one next to me. But…it was. Wait, oh man….that was the guy I was trying to avoid. Great. Just great.

"Mr. Cullen, can you tell me why you're 5 minutes late to my class?"

I heard a few snickers in the class. That must be his buddies laughing at him.

"Ummm. I got lost."

"Edward, you've been going to this school for over 2 years now. You shouldn't be getting lost. Besides, you used that excuse last week. Sit down Mr. Cullen. That's another tardy. Careful, they're starting to pile up."

The guy, (Edward?) walked down the aisle to, you guessed it, my table, highfiving some guys on the way.

I quickly put my head down showing him I didn't want to talk. I was hoping he got my drift…he didn't.

"Looks like I don't have a table to myself anymore." I was sure if he was talking to himself or to me. Either way, I didn't look up.

"Sooooo…you must be Isabella."

"Bella," I said, still concentrating at writing down the notes.

"Oh, sorry. So Bella, how are you liking Forks?"

I just shrugged my shoulders. I was not going to be fooled by sweet talk. I learned my lesson.

"Ok so you're not much of a talker."

I continued to write my notes.

"Ummm, hello? I don't bite you know."

I snapped my head up. "What?" I asked sharply.

He looked taken aback by my sudden response. Good. The last thing I want is for him to be interested in me.

"Whoa. What's your deal? Am I not allowed to be nice?"

"How about you just leave me alone. I don't bug you, you don't bug me. We're all happy here."

Edward looked so confused. He looked like this was the first time he's been rejected by someone. Good. He needs to know that not every girl will drool over him.

For the rest of the class, we wrote notes. Occasionally, I saw Edward glance at me from the corner of his eye. Then, but not soon enough, the bell rang.

As I was gathering my stuff, Edward spoke to me again even though I clearly told him I had no interest in interacting with him.

"Here, let's start over." He put out his hand. "I'm Edward."

I took his hand, firmly gripped it and said, "Not a chance." Then, I stood up and walked away leaving him bewildered in his seat.

Edward's POV:

I just sat there staring off into the distance. Did that just happen? Was I just…rejected? No girl has ever rejected me. Usually girls are waiting in line to have a chance to even talk to me. I was not used to this.

However, the more I thought about it, the more interested I got into her. She was one of the hottest girls I've ever seen. Her reddish brown hair came down her back in luscious curls. Her brown eyes reminded me of warm chocolate luring me in. Her think figure, her curves…it took all my strength just to not pounce on her the second I saw her.

But most of all, her grip was what shocked me the most. I never would've thought that a girl as fragile looking as Bella could have such a firm hand shake. That showed me she's strong, even though she looked weak. Just like how I thought she was gonna go for me when, instead, her rejection hit me like a brick.

She doesn't know what she's got herself into. This is a whole new game for me. She better get used to me being around because I'm not giving up. I'm going to win her over if it's the last thing I do.

Ok so the chapters will be getting better and longer. This one was just the explaining beginning chapter. Haha. Chapter 2 will be coming soon. REVIEW PLEASE! ^_^

Also, I'd like to say hi to my twi-sister! You know who you are! haha
