Bad Day?

A/N: This is an all human story and they are in high school. I thought it was a cute idea so I wrote it down. I have a few other one shots that I am working on too. Please review and let me know what you think of them. It would be much appreciated. Oh, and sorry if anybody is OC. I totally didn't mean for that to happen.

I walked down the hall trying to keep my head down so no one would notice me. I was having a really bad day and I just didn't want to have to deal with anymore of the popular kid's comments. I really just wanted to be left alone. That wouldn't exactly stop them though. I sighed remembering how my day had gone so far today.

I woke up late this morning and was trying to rush so I could get to school on time. I ended up tripping over my own feet and landing in my hamper full of dirty laundry. Needless to say that the hamper broke and my clothes went flying everywhere around the room.

I got dressed and went downstairs to get my breakfast. I was getting a bowl for my cereal when I ended up dropping it on my toe and the bowl broke in two. Then when I was pouring milk into my bowl I got it all down the front of me. Only then did I realize that the milk had gone bad so now I smelled like rotten milk and was covered in chunks of it.

I went back up the stairs to take a shower so I wouldn't go around school smelling like bad milk all day and realized that I bought the wrong shampoo. I only realized it when I was finished using it and I started to get hives all over me from an allergic reaction.

After that I was brushing my teeth and ended up dropping my toothbrush down the toilet. When I leaned over to retrieve it, I accidentally hit the handle and my toothbrush was flushed away. On the way down it clogged the toilet so I was trying to fix it when the water from the toilet shot up and sprayed everywhere. Unfortunately, my head had been in the way so it was mostly all over me.

I changed again and hurried out the door to my truck when I tripped over the doorstep. My stuff went flying everywhere and all of my papers got soaked from the rain. Not to mention the fact that I was soaked and caked in mud. I was also sore all over from falling so much. The wind started to blow my papers away and I rushed after them trying to catch them only to fall down a few more times.

I didn't have time to change again so I got into my truck and headed off to school. About half way there a deer decided to run across the street and I nearly crashed into a tree trying to avoid the stupid thing. I drove carefully the rest of the way to school only to find out that there were no more parking spaces left.

I parked all the way at the end of the lot and had to walk the rest of the way. Since there was only five minutes to spare until class started and I needed to get to the bathroom, I ran. I ended up tripping again and becoming even more soaked. Everybody in the lot started pointing and laughing at me. I got up ignoring them as best I could and rushed to the nearest bathroom.

Once in there I had done my best to wash all of the mud off of me and mostly succeeded. Unfortunately, I was still soaked all the way through. I ended up rushing to class and getting there two seconds before the bell rang. The teacher gave me a weird look and went to start class. Everyone else in the room pointed at me and started whispering to their friends who would laugh. I tried to pay attention and take notes but it wasn't helping all that much.

All of my other classes were the same way as well and by the time lunch came around I decided I would eat in one of the bathroom stalls. I dropped most of my food on the floor so ended up becoming hungry on top of being still soaking wet.

Now I was heading to my bio class since lunch was over. I groaned when I remembered that Tanya was in this class. So much for trying to be ignored. She was Queen of the popular kids, the official mean girl of the school. She was always being mean to everyone and yet everybody still loved her. Now that is something I will never understand. Sure she was pretty, but she was out to destroy everybody's lives.

I walked into the room and took my usual seat by myself in the back left hand corner of the room. I sunk into my chair hoping that Tanya wasn't here yet. I looked around and saw that my wish had been granted and she wasn't here yet. Unfortunately, she would be here soon. I sighed to myself and started twirling a strand of my mahogany hair around my finger as I waited.

I watched as she waltzed into the room and braced myself for whatever was about to come. Whatever it was, it was not going to be good. I waited and it didn't come. She didn't even look at me. I watched as she threw a flirtatious look over her shoulder and I looked to the doorway curiously to see who was there.

I turned my head and I felt myself freeze in shock. There stood the singular most beautiful boy I had ever laid eyes on. He was so perfect people could mistake him for an angel. He was as pale as paper and had the most beautiful shade of reddish brown hair. It was tousled and messy like he had just rolled out of bed. From what I could see he had sharp cheekbones and a perfectly shaped nose. He was giving a faint smile but he wasn't looking at Tanya. He was focusing on the teacher Mr. Banner. He looked like he was well toned from what I could see. From where I sat on the other side of the room, I could not see his eyes and for some reason this made me sad.

He walked over to the teacher more gracefully then I had ever seen anyone walk before. He started talking to the teacher and I looked around the room to see that everyone was staring at him slightly awed. That meant I wasn't the only who noticed how amazingly beautiful he was. I leaned back and started twirling my hair between my fingers again. I bit my lip and stared at the table. If all of these people liked him then I would never have a chance with him.

I looked up and saw him looking at me curiously. I blushed furiously and looked down again. I heard the teacher say my name and I looked up to see that he was pointing at the seat next to mine. I realized that the seat next to mine was the only one open in the room. Poor boy. He would have to sit with me, the outcast.

He started walking towards the desk when Tanya stopped him. She whispered something in his ear while smirking at me and he gave her a funny look. I didn't hear what it was even though she was seated right in front of me. I blushed some more and looked down knowing that whatever she said to him was not good. It never was with her.

I heard the chair next to me pull back and saw out of the corner of my eye that the boy placed his books on the table. I kept my gaze down afraid to look at him.

"Excuse me miss" a velvety musical voice said next to me "But I would like to introduce myself."

I looked up at him surprised by the sound of his voice. It was even better than what I would have imagined it to be. It was definitely the voice of an angel. Now that he was closer I could see that he had a shocking pair of emerald green eyes. I thought I was going to get lost in them. I also noticed that he had amazingly beautiful full lips that made you just want to kiss them. They were turned up into a slight crooked smile that made my heart beat a little faster.

"I am Edward" he said politely, sticking his hand out for mine.

"I'm Bella" I told him slightly dazzled and reached my hand out for his too before realizing that I was still soaking wet.

I winced and pulled my hand back looking away. No way would I infect his perfectness with my dirtiness. I felt a blush in my cheeks and just stared at my book trying to hold back tears.

"Are you okay?" he asked worriedly.

I looked over and saw him leaning closer towards me. The smile was gone from his lips and now his eyes held nothing but worry. Why would he be worried for me?

"Yeah, fine" I told him trying to smile reassuringly.

I failed miserably having it come out watery and weak. This appeared to make him even more worried and I looked away again. Luckily, Mr. Banner started class then. He started passing out worksheets and told us that we could wither work individually or with partners on it. Tanya immediately whipped around and gave Edward a dazzling smile.

"Would you like to work with me?" she asked sweetly.

"Sure" he replied glancing at me worriedly while I just looked away to avoid his gaze.

"Oh don't worry about the loser" Tanya stated wrinkling up her nose in disgust "She prefers to work by herself anyway."

I concentrated as hard as I could on my worksheet completely ignoring what they were doing. I really hated Tanya. I finished my worksheet before everyone else and started doodling on the corners of my paper. They were nothing special, just swirls and odd sorts of shapes all over the place.

The bell rang to go to the next class and I quickly got my stuff together. I got up and didn't notice that Tanya's foot was sticking out to trip me. I slammed into the ground full force knocking the wind out of me. I just laid there listening to everyone laughing at me as I waited for my breath to come back.

"What's the matter Swan?" I heard Tanya sneer "Can't you walk?"

Everyone started laughing harder and I shut my eyes tight to keep the tears from leaking out. This was such a bad day. I was going to have so many bruises tomorrow it was ridiculous.

"I think you are all jerks" hissed a smooth silky voice menacingly "How can you do that to someone?"

"Well it's not like she is anyone important" Tanya retorted "She's just the Swan girl. It's not like it matters."

"I'm sure it matters to her" he snapped.

I noticed that everyone had gone completely silent. I got my breath back but I decided to remain on the floor. I wanted to hear what would happen next.

"You make it sound like you care about what happens to her" Tanya said surprised and disgusted "But you are too damn hot to be with her."

Everything was silent for a moment and I cracked my eyes open to see what was going on. Edward was standing over me glaring at Tanya in a way that scared the snot out of me. Everyone else around the room was frozen and Tanya was looking at Edward in disbelief. She shook her head and flounced away out of the room. Everyone else let out there breathe and started chattering away about what just happened as they also exited the room. Edward relaxed his position and kneeled down beside me.

"Are you alright?" he asked with deep concern.

I stared at him in disbelief. No one had ever done anything like that for me before. Why was this boy any different? What did he want?

"Why did you do that?" I asked surprised.

He gave me a funny look as I sat up so that our faces were level.

"Why do you let people do that to you?" he asked sounding slightly angry.

"Because I am a nobody, like Tanya said" I replied shrugging.

His eyes softened as he stared at me.

"But your not a nobody" he said shaking his head slightly.

"Yes I am" I told him "Now would you be kind enough to tell me why you did that. You completely ruined your reputation by helping me you know."
"Who cares about my reputation" he said exasperatedly "Nobody should be treated like that."

It was my turn to give him a funny look.

"Now will you please tell if you are alright" he said irritated.

"I'm fine" I told him.

He gave me a questioningly look and I sighed.

"I've had worse" I told him.

His eyes narrowed and he looked towards the door.

"It wasn't them" I told him quietly regaining his attention "I am just a natural klutz. You should have seen what I did this morning.

I winced as I remembered all of the falling that I had done this morning. The bell rang and we both looked at the clock in surprise.

"Oh no" I squeaked "I'm late for class."

I winced as I reached over to grab my books.

"I'll get that" Edward said softly scooping my books up effortlessly before I could protest.

He stood up still holding my books and held his other hand out to help me up. I sighed and reached for his hand. As soon as I did I felt like and electric current went through us. I saw surprise flit across Edward's features and I nearly let go. He held my hand tighter however and pulled me up off the floor. I stumbled into him and he held me to his chest while I regained my balance. I blushed and stepped away.

Something flitted across Edward's features again but it was so quick this time that I didn't know what it was. I held my hands out for my books but Edward just shook his head and walked to the door. I sighed and started to follow after him. I winced every time I took a step forward and Edward noticed.

"I am taking you to the nurse" he told me sternly "Why didn't you tell me that it hurt that much before?"

"Its fine Edward" I told him sighing "I am just a little sore."

I started heading in the direction of my next class but Edward grabbed onto the back of my sweatshirt.

"Hey" I cried.

"I told you that I am taking you to the nurse" Edward all but growled.

"Fine" I huffed realizing that I was not going to win.

He smiled at me triumphantly before grabbing my hand and leading me to the nurse's office. Again, I felt that electric shock when his hand touched mine. I reveled in the warmth of his hand. It felt so good for his long pale fingers to be wrapped around mine.

He led me into the nurse's office and she glanced over at me unsurprised.

"What is it this time, miss Swan?" she asked causing me to blush and Edward to raise his eyebrows at me before turning to the nurse.

"Someone tripped her and now she is wincing every time she moves" he told the nurse while I just scowled at him "I was wondering if you could take a look at her."
"Of course" the nurse said sighing "But I need you to leave the room."

"Certainly" Edward replied releasing his hand from mine.

He walked out of the room and I turned to the nurse.

"I'm fine really" I tried to persuade her only managing in having her roll her eyes at me.

"Please remove your sweatshirt" she commanded.

I sighed but did as she asked. She looked at my arms and her eyes were alarmed. She asked me to lift up my shirt so she could see my ribs and that just caused her to be even more alarmed.

"Are you sure you're not being abused?" she asked horrified by the bruises all over my body.

"I fell a few other times today to" I told her wincing "I'm not exactly having the best day."

"Well alright but you might want to get those checked out and take it easy" the nurse told me "You should probably go home."

"What about my classes?" I asked horrified.

"Last period is almost over anyone dear" she told me kinder now "I will be sure to let them know that you and your friend there were with me."

She opened the door and I stepped outside to find Edward there waiting for me. He looked slightly anxious but less so when he saw me. I scowled at him and he seemed to relax a little. The nurse handed me a note.

"Give this to the secretary, Ms. Cope" she told me "It will excuse you from your last period class."

"Okay" I said as I started walking.

Edward came up beside me.

"So what's the verdict?" he asked seriously.

"I have a ton of bruises that I should probably get looked at" I told him sighing.

"So nothing's broken or fractured or anything?" he asked sounding slightly relieved.

"No" I said rolling my eyes "It's just a bunch of bruises."

I handed Ms. Cope the slip and she nodded. Edward and I both walked to the door to the parking lot and I saw that it was raining even harder. I stood under the eave and looked around uneasily. Edward produced an umbrella from his backpack and looked at me curiously. I bit my lip and looked away. He grabbed my hand and pulled me under the umbrella with him. There was that electric current again. I felt like lightning was running through my veins.

"Where is your car?" he asked smiling at me.

"All the way at the end of the lot" I told him.

"Well mine is right there" he said pointing in front of us at a shiny silver Volvo "Why don't I give you a ride to your car so you don't get soaked again?"

"Sure" I said really not liking the idea of getting wet again.

He walked me to the passenger side door and held it open for me to get in.

"Thank you" I said gratefully.

"Your welcome" he said giving me a dazzling crooked smile that made my heart speed up and my mind to go completely blank.

He got in the driver's side and turned the car on. He turned on the heat and I sighed contentedly. He headed for the end of the lot as a familiar piece of music started to flow out of his speakers.

"Clair de Lune?" I asked surprised.

"You know Debussy?" he asked in disbelief.

"Only my favorites" I told him.

"It's one of my favorites too" he murmured.

"That's my truck" I said pointing.

He stopped and turned to me with a slight crease between his eyes.

"Will I see you tomorrow?" he asked quietly.

"Only if you want to" I replied confused.

He reached out and grabbed my hand before bringing it to his lips. My whole hand felt like it was on fire from where it touched me. Only it was a good sort of burning.

"Bye Bella" he said smiling his dazzling crooked smile "See you tomorrow."

"See you Edward" I replied breathlessly before fumbling out of his car and over to my truck.

I got in and turned it one. I immediately put the heat on and then turned to watch as he drove away. I drove home content in myself and ended up flopping onto my bed happily. Maybe it wasn't such a bad day after all.

A/N: That was a lot longer than I thought it was going to be. I hope you all like it. Review please.
