Have you ever had that feeling... the complete spasm of fear rattle through your bones that indicated the first day at a new school half way through the semester? Leaving mum was hard but i don't want her to suffer because of my annoying needs and now i have to somehow handle living with Charlie all by ourselves in the small town of Forks.
I don't know if its because i have been living in Phoenix where it only rains about four times a year but Forks is too green, you can't see the trees and the sky is a constant colour of grey. Somehow looking at the sky makes you feel constricted. Like you only have one mile to go till the edge of the world.
So here i am in the truck Charlie bought me as a homecoming present making my way to the school i used to dream of attending and now i wish that it never existed. It is small, about four main buildings and a small parking lot. Charlie said i had to go to the office before going to classes to get timetable or my helltable. I parked my truck in the corner of the lot under an overhanging tree. Hopefully this way i'd draw much less attention to myself. Even though there was very few people who were actually looking at me it felt like to whole world was scrutinising my every move. Criticising my every step but i pushed those thoughts away and walked into the small building with the words office painted on the door.
As i walked in it felt like the outside was in. The counters had pot plants every centimetre. There was only a small space that the lady who was standing behind the counter would be able to lean forward to see who she was talking to. I walked over, my knees shaking to introduce myself and see what had to be done.
"Um hi i'm Bella Swan" wow good first impression.
"Oh yes Isabella"
"Please just Bella"
"Ok Bella" great sounds like Charlie had been calling me Isabella. She ruffled through a 2 foot pile of paper to find my application.
"Here we are, this is your timetable and this is the slip you need every teacher to sign when you arrive at class for your first day"
"Thanks"
"Thats ok dear have a nice first day"
I walked out of the office and into the main building. The walls looked like they just came out of a 1980's movie and the lockers were just as bad. I miss my old school so much already. The walls were covered with posters of the Spartans and promoting second hand textbooks for cheap prices. I continued walking to my locker, number 419. I tried to open it and it wouldn't budge. It looks like it hasn't been opened in like ten years. As i was struggling with the rusty hinges a boy came up next to me and opened his locker, 418 swiftly and glanced and my hands wrenching open the locker.
He leaned over and chuckled as he pulled open my naughty locker. All i could see was the he was extremely handsome and that he opened the door quickly.
"Thanks" i muttered and leaned in my locker to escape the embarrassment of having to get help.
"It's ok. I'm Edward Cullen by the way" and he walked away towards to south building.
I was stunned. His voice was extraordinary. It was smooth and velvety and i didn't realise the bell rang until a group of Seniors walked passed. I rushed off to my first class of doom cursing myself for being such a teenager.
