Helloooo fantabulous readers! This is my first fanfic so please be nice! Inspired by the fabulous Twilight Saga and The Script Album science and faith, so here it is! hope you like it! EEEEPPPP!
"OK girls now push it harder! Yep just like that Rosalie great! Alice swivel a bit so we can get a better angle... yep like that nice! OK girls that's enough for today same time next week?" in reply I get a grumble of agreeance from an exhausted cheerleading team about ready to kill me and my 'Nazi training sessions.' But hey, we want to be the best? We gotta train hard.
"Hey Bella!"
"Oh no..." I groan to Alice and Rosalie, who both giggle in reply.
"Bella! Hey Bella over here!" Mike Newton shouts as he runs across the field.
"When will Mike accept I don't like- Hey Mike what's up?" I plaster my obviously-fake-but-Mike's-to-dumb-to-notice smile across my face.
"Hey. Great Practice today. I was watching whilst I was you know, working on my kicks for football. Gotta train hard to be hard." I don't believe it he just winked at me. Ew. Behind us I can hear Rosalie and Alice disguising their laughter, poorly I might add.
"Um... thanks. So.."
"So see you later? I mean the guys and I are heading to Jessica's party tonight. Take it you're gonna be there right?" Oh crap I totally forgot about that.
"Yeah of course I will! When have you known me to miss a party?" and it was true. I never miss parties, I've come close a few times but when you're head cheerleader you kind of have to be in the public eye 24/7.
"Coolio see you then!" Coolio? Really? I bet he's regretting that one right now...
"Yeah... sure... bye" and with that I turned back to Rosalie and Alice, who were rolling on the ground in fits of laughter. "Thanks for the help guys!" I chucked my sports bag at them.
"Ow! Bells that was mean!" squeaked Alice.
"Yeah not coolio Bella.." Said Rosalie consequently sending us all off in a fit of giggles making us late for class.
I ran into biology, apologising to Mr Kaye and took my seat at the back of the class. Contrary to popular belief, just because your head cheerleader doesn't mean you're popular. I sit in the back of most classes, alone, friendless, the works. Honestly I have no idea how I even got the role as Head. I don't even know why I joined the squad. That's a lie, I do know. After my parents rather messy divorce I was shipped off to Forks to live with my father, Charlie. He then enrolled me at Forks High where I was dumped into classes where everyone knew each other and I was just the random outcast. Then by chance I smashed into Alice who helped me reclaim my things from our collision and thus forced me to 'socialise' and join the squad, where I met Rosalie. Rosalie seems to understand me more than Alice. Alice wants to drag me to shops and get a manicure whereas Rosalie knows I want nothing more than popcorn and a movie with my two best friends.
"Ms Swan care to give us the answer?" Oh shit.
"Uhh..." Lauren Malroy sniggered behind me. I could feel my face reddening.
"Anaerobic" someone whispered to me.
"Anaerobic?" I say, though it sounded more of a question than an answer.
"Glad to see you were paying attention." replied Mr Kaye. Phew! I looked to see who had saved me from my deathly embarrassment and found the eyes of Edward Cullen on me. I was mortified. What was he doing looking at me? I gave him a quick nod of thanks and went back to ignoring everyone. I couldn't have Edward looking at me. I would die. Not in an 'OMG he's so hot I may die' way. But in an 'OMG Tanya will kill me and I shall die' way. Tanya was Edward's girlfriend, and I had never had a problem with her. She's a member of my squad and I have never had any problems with her. Not one single complaint. She was perfect. Her only problem is that she's CRRRAAAAZZZYYY when it com she comes to Edward. The boy practically drools over her but she doesn't see it. She prefers to believe that we're all out to get him if we talk to him. So he's just as socially excluded as I am.
The school bell buzzed and I ran out my seat fo2r lunch. My favourite subject at school. I sat down at my cheer table, Rosalie and Alice sitting dutifully by my side just as the rest of the team rolled in. We didn't all chat together like you'd expect from a cheer table. I mean god we have a whole table together. But no, it's just for show. Every lunch the team sit down and break off into mini groups. Its kind of sad really, as Rosalie, Alice and I would much prefer to go sit with Emmett and Jasper, Rosalie and Alice's boyfriends, but instead we sit in the centre of the cafeteria, showing the rest of the school what their missing. Its tradition. If any of us dare to branch out we would be cut from the team. Unwritten rule. Like girl code. Only worse. Rose, Aly and I were just discussing what car Rosalie should get for her birthday when Tanya and Edward walked in. I watched as they glided across the room together, laughing and smiling. The picture of a happy couple. It was nice. Edward left Tanya after they'd collected their food and she obediently sat at the only seat available at our table, which happened to be across from me.
"Hey guys" she said as she stabbed at her salad.
"Hey Tanya what's up?" Rose enquired. I of course was just sitting watching conversation roll by. I never spoke to anyone, bar Rosalie and Alice, if it wasn't during practice.
"Not much, Edward was just telling me about your killer assignment in biology Bella, what's your title gonna be?" See. Why can't I be like her? She's not even in my class but she's trying to talk to me about my boilo- wait. What?
"Assignment? What assignment?"
"The one you just got?" she replied with a slight frown growing on her face. "Edward was just telling me about it." Shit. That's what happens when you don't pay attention Bella. You miss stuff.
"I'm just gonna go talk to Edward about it. Clearly I really wasn't paying attention today."
"Go for it. I think he's with Emmett and Jasper." She smiled. Again. Wait what? She's not even bothered that I'm off to talk to Edward? Am I that much of a non threat she doesn't even care? Great. I slouched off in search of him. It didn't take me long to hear the loud guffaws of Emmett or to spot the gorgeous locks of Jasper. I snuck over to their table and stole Emmett's fries.
"HEY! Aww no fair Swan! Not cool!" he pouted whiles the other two laughed.
"Sorry Em, need to be quicker" I winked. "Umm Eh Eh Eh Edward Tanya said something about an err Assignment?"
"Yeah Eh Eh Eh Edward tell us about your Assignment" Emmett mocked. Jasper hit him in the head.
"Yeah Bella. Biology. 1000 words on anything we've learnt in the last year. Due next Monday" he beamed. Ah that gorgeous crooked smile...
"Thanks" I whispered and turned to run.
"Wait. We could work together on it if you want, we're allowed to work in pairs. Say my house after school?" OMG I may die. In the good way this time. Or the bad. I'm not sure. Hey I don't care. Edward asked me to his house! "I'll drive and I can drop you off home when we're done." Even better. The Volvo!
"Sure sound Coolio" Oh no.
"Yeah... Sure" he smiled unsurely.
"Ok bye" I cannot believe I just said that! I turned and ran back to my seat at the table.
"What did he say?" Tanya enquired. Oh shit. I was wrong it's OMG in the bad way...
