Bella's POV
Any other time I've started the school year at Highroads Secondary it's been the same. New teachers, few new kids, and of course new looks, addictions and new crushes. For the last 3 years I have live through the pain of my mom being the 'hottest' teacher in the school. Me being the typical dork. But everything had to go wrong this year, and it all started on the first day back.
"Ohmigod Bella is that you?! My lord you look great, is that a new shirt?" Mike came running down the hall in his 'peppy' outfit.
" Hey Mike how are you doing?" I replied , " and yes it's new."
We walked down the hall keeping up the small talk of what happened over our summer holidays, when he brought up my most hated subject.
" Like did you see Edward today, he was really working his new watch with a couple of underdressed chicks"
" I wouldn't say that they are underdressed, he probably dressed them himself just for today."
Edward was your typical rich ass kid that got whatever he wanted, girls cars and he even had his own island. Every girl wanted him for his money bags and of course his hot body, which I had no use for. He had got out with every girl in our class, but me and I was plannign on keeping it that way.
I walked into home room and sat down in a seat waitingto find out who was my homeroom teacher and who would be in it, thats were it went wrong. Any other year I have dogded my mother being my teacher, but this year for lack of grade 12 homerooms, I was stuck with her. Mike wasnt in my class , but Mr. Showing-off-the-new-watch-with-some- new-girl was .
Despi te all my so far problems I thought I would be okay, a minor set back to my perfectly unnoticable last year of school. I would live.
"Good morning class, Im Miss Ray your homeroom teacher for the year. In Highroads Secondary you know that grad year is very important to us and you. And you know that your last year here is completly on your new life. So this year , your homeroom is your lifestyles course. You will be working on finacal problems, sudden life changes, fictional jobs, marriage and family issuses. With that said for the rest of the year you will be in partners."
Oh shit did she just say partners, no , no , no, NO!
" Yo, Renne! Can you hook me up with Jessica here." Edward pointed at the girl he curently had in his lap and held out a 50$ bill at the same time.
" No I can't sweetheart," she winked at him " Its all computer based. So you'll just have to live with what ever the computer gives you."
Everybody started to look worried, with their eyes searching the classroom inspecting every one of there classmates. There was only 16 kids in the class, and sure enough it was split in the middle. Half girls half boys.
" Alrighty then, I will assign you you partner then give you your schedule, and your first assignment. Sound good? Good"
"Jasper your with Alice"
"Nick your with Ashley"
"Will your with Kate"
"Mike your with Jessica"
"Emment your with Rosalie"
" Edward your with Bella"
"Michel your with Jenna"
" And Matt your with Lilly"
Oh shit, This could not be happening. Not Edward . Why me? Stupid fucking computer. I glanced around the room and all eyes were on me. I knew the girls were just giving me death stares. Blushing from all the attention I looked back up at my mother.
"E-hem, Okay your first assignment. In your pair you must go around the school and look for clues, when you finish the race you will get to choose your job. The quicker you are the better paying job you get. This is your first clue."
She turned on the overhead projector to reveal the clue;
Just look around,
And see,
New to this school
It will be a breeze
To win the race
Open your eyes
Read this this clue, carefully
It was so easy. I knew the answer with in second. The janitors closet/office. Edward motioned me to his desk.
" Okay I dont know you, but you must know me, everybody does. What's the answer?" He gave me his flirtly eyes.
"Umm the Janitors Closet."
My god thoses eyes killed me.
"Good lets go!"
And the race was on.
