I was trying very hard to not let my nerves get to me, but that seemed to be inevitable. I could already feel the fluttering butterflies lurking in my stomach. After moving from my small town in New Jersey, to an even smaller town called Forks, I was plagued with jitters. I mean sure, I should be ecstatic that I'm moving to the town where the Twilight saga is based but I couldn't shake the feeling of meeting new people. I was normally a shy person and enjoyed keeping to myself. Too much socialization bothered me and only made me crave sitting at home with a book even more. I guess I was like Bella in that sense, I just wasn't like every other girl. I thought about all of this while sitting on my bed, the morning of my first day at Forks High School. I couldn't wait to see if there was filming or something for the next Twilight movie going on!
"Serena you must get down here, you'll be late for school!" shrilled my moms high and demanding voice. She usually talked in a smooth tone, that sounded like the pouring of coffee. It was velvety and smooth, just like her mocha colored skin and red-brown hair that she had piled in a bun on top of her head. But in the morning she let the green monster come out and her nurturing facade was thrown out the window. That's okay though, I wasn't exactly the nicest company to keep in the morning either.
"Just leave for work mom, I'll get there in time don't worry." my voice echoed down the stairs as shuffled my feet to the bathroom. I took a glance at myself in the mirror. My skin was disgustingly pale, unlike my mothers caramel skin, and it made me look like a ghost. My hair was pin-straight and boring, I'd often run my hands through it and shift it to one side as it rested on my frail shoulders. But in the sun it looked red, just like Bella in the movies. My skin wasn't exactly bad though, it was smooth and porcelain. I had a line of freckles that scattered around my cheeks, and I hated them. I had long arms and legs that didn't fit my body and chocolate brown eyes that were plain as anything.
I tore myself away from my reflection and scurried down the steeps stairs. It wasn't like I was hideous or anything, but I wasn't exactly a beauty queen in my eyes. I slung my small backpack on and grabbed my I-pod before I ran out to my car. It was a small red Toyota that used to be my dads. It had a dent in the front but worked pretty well. I drove cautiously to Forks High School. A nervous feeling was starting to create an ice-ball in the core of my stomach. I had talked to my mom about how Twilight took place here and she looked at me like I was crazy. She said she had never heard of the books I spoke of. I found it odd, especially because she used to read them.
"Crazy….I….Them….But….Famous….Ugh!" I murmured angrily under my breath. Maybe people in Forks remembered the books, after all it's setting was this little town. I slowly parked my car and got out, taking a quick glance around the parking lot at all the kids. I was wearing my fleece North face jacket and a royal blue long sleeve v-neck shirt with jeans. My hair was back in a headband and to my relief I didn't stick out as much as a new kid usually did.
"Hey! How's it going? My names Eriq, are you the new girl? I'll give you a tour of the school if you want." spoke a boy around 5'9 with short blond hair and a goofy smile. He irked me with how friendly he was but he reminded me of someone.
"Yeah, I'm Serena Playe," I mumbled shyly while staring at my zipper", I just need to know where advanced English is."
"Right this way pretty lady." chimed Eriq. Why was he calling me that? Ugh, this was going to be a long strolled passed the clearly labeled buildings toward my class as he tried and failed to make extremly desprate small talk. I just nodded politely and silently prayed for a distraction.
"Well,"Eriq said while rubbing the back of his neck",This is it, I'll see you later Serena."
"Yeah....bye." I attempted to say without too much disgust in my voice. I didn't pull it off. I never did, he blushed shyly as I walked into class. Most people were already in their seats and I walked up to the teacher so my seat could be assigned. The teacher was a fairly old Chinese man and was a bit portly. He motioned for me to sit at the only empty seat in the room, next to an extremely gorgeous just can't be happening, he looks exactly like Stephanie Meyers description of Edward Cullen. I scrambled to my seat and almost killed myself by tripping over my own converse shoelace but I managed to stay upright and make it to my seat by the God-like creature.
"Hey" I murmured to the boy, as he took a moment to look at me. He immediately jerked his face away and slid his chair toward to the farthest end of out lab table. My face flushed a tomato red color and I became rigid in my seat. It was difficult trying to pay attention during class because I could feel the glares he shot at me. I wanted so badly to tell him who he was similar to but I hesitated.
"Uh.....I....y-you...er." I stuttered and silently cursed myself. I just couldn't bring myself to say anything and sound educated at the same time. A devastating feeling of doubt washed over me, maybe I was imagining the book and movie. After all, why would nobody else have any recollection of what it was but me? I really should see a doctor. I sneaked a peak at him and to my suprise he was staring with concentration at my face. This startled me but I regained control and just played with my bracelet. It was incredible, I could actually feel the heat and pressure of his stare.
"Um I am-" Just then the bell rang and the movie star next to me got up fluidly and threw himself out the door before I could even take another breath. The whole experience just left me rattled.
"Wow, you sure have an effect on Edward. He looked as though he would kill someone all the while during class" spoke a quiet voice from behind me.
"Oh, yeah, he said he got hurt earlier or something." This girl seemed pretty nice but was unfortunately very observant to this boys reaction. Wait. Rewind. Did she just call him EDWARD?
"Oh,my name's Christine, what's yours?" she said as she stuck out her hand for me to shake. I thought this was someone I could be friends with, she was normal. Unlike this town with a guy named Edward in it.
"Serena, what's that guy's name again?"
"Edward Cullen, he's one of the best looking guys you'll ever meet but him and his family keep to themselves." Whoa,whoa,whoa. His last name was Cullen? I must be going crazy.
"Like in the movie?" Like in Twilight, like as in Edward Cullen? But I didn't dare speak the last two questions for the fear that she might think I'm crazy.
"Um,I don't think there is a movie with that name. It's kind of old fashioned,any who we should get to class." Christine rushed the words out as she pulled me toward the door.
That was all it took for me to know something was wrong. I couldn't have just imagined the whole phenomena, there's no way, and I was too young to be going crazy yet. I'm only seventeen, something's wrong. But I won't tell anyone else. I'll figure this out, because everyone else might have forgotten. But I remembered and there is no way I'm going to forget. RING! That was the warning bell for my next class.
"Oh great, I wonder who's in this class." I murmured.
"What's that?" Christine asked.
"Nothing.....nothing at all."
