Chapter 1 – First day back

Bpov

"And last but not least, have a great year, seniors of Forks High!"

It's the same speech each year, only this year "senior" is added to the speech. Congratulating us for getting this far, telling us to keep up the good work and, my personal favourite, the principal's insistence that if we put our mind to it, we can do anything. HA! Yeah right.

As all the students file out of the gym, I get shoved and elbowed in the head. I'm quite short, only 5'3", and this person who bumped into me is miles high compared to me. I stagger a bit to my left but quickly regain my balance. I rub the sore spot on my head. I can already feel a bump forming.

"Oh, sorry," says a smooth voice. I look up. Oh great, it's Jasper. He's smirking down at me but keeps moving towards the exit. I quickly lose sight of his crazy blond curls.

Jasper and I were close when we were young. We did everything together, from mud pies to tea parties. Yes, Jasper played tea parties with me. He's even been my neighbor ever since I can remember and his parents are my god parents. But we grew apart, much to our parent's dismay. I swear our mothers planned out our entire wedding without out knowing at the time.

It started when we were in grade seven. We hung out all the time, we were best friends. But the phase of boyfriends and girlfriends hit the school and almost everyone was going out with each other. It was pretty much just me and Jasper without anyone, so it made sense for us to go out. Well, that's what one of our friends said at the time. Not naming any names… Mike.

So we went out and that's when we first started to drift apart. We didn't hang out nearly as much as we used to. Our group split, me with the girls and him with the boys. Dinners with our families were awkward and we avoided each other as much as possible. But then another phase started; kissing. The thought terrified me. Kissing Jasper, my best friend since forever. And much to my dismay, we did kiss.

Mike, always the trouble maker, got a group of friends and cornered me and Jasper, shouting "Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!" at us. So what were we to do? Eyes scrunched up, we both leant in and shared our first kiss together. It was warm and his lips were smooth but it was awkward. We both quickly moved away from each other and I ran off to the bathrooms. I didn't speak to Jasper for days, too mortified to even look at him.

One day after school, Jasper's window had a large piece of paper stuck to it with messy hand writing on it. He hasn't contacted me like that for a long time. Leaning in closer I saw the words Meet me at tree house. Nervous, I made my way to the tree house in my back yard. Not surprisingly, Jasper was there, sitting on the bright blue mat in the middle of the floor. I sat down next to him. After a moment he started to talk.

"Bella," he started, not looking at me. "Bella, I don't want to be your boyfriend anymore." I agreed and we both made our ways back to our own houses. We never talked after that besides from when we had to. I stuck with my friends and he stuck with his.

His "Oh, sorry" was the first contact we've had in years. I stand in the same place as students exit the gym all around me.

"Bella! C'mon, we're going to be late for class!" shouts my friend, Alice, from the gym exit. She's jumping up and down, waving her hands in all directions trying to get my attention. I laugh at her and make my way towards the ball of energy.


"Pst, Bella," Alice's small voice makes its way through my day dreaming. First day of school and I'm already zoning out. Great. I look over to when Alice is sitting, a row away from me. She passes a folded piece of paper to me. I snatch it up quickly and unfold it so the teacher doesn't see.

Jasper's looking extra yummy this year! I gotta get me some of that ;)

Ahh Alice. She's had a crush on him for as long as I've known her. I shake my head and silently laugh and I write a note back.

Well, that's a matter of opinion.

I pass it back and she quickly scribbles down response and passes it back.

Bella, you just can't appreciate the hunky-ness of sir yums-alot. One of these days you're gonna actually be attracted to a guy and we'll have many talks about boys boys and more boys! That day will come. Mark my works Swan.

I scrunch up the paper and shove it in my bag as the teacher starts to pay attention to the class.

"Okay children, your first assignment," the teacher claps his hands together and has a bright smile on his face. Mr. Greene is a good music teacher but he always insists in calling us children. For goodness sakes! We're seniors now! "You're going to have to perform a duet with a partner of the opposite sex," chatter fills the class room. "So boys, pick a name out of the bowl and that will be your partner," he walks around the room with the bowl as each boy in the room takes a slip of paper out of it.

I look over to Alice, and she's almost jumping out of her seat in excitement. I know who she wants as a partner. I look around the room and search for blonde curls. I see him just as he takes a slip of paper. He's accidentally takes two and puts one back. He opens it and as he reads it I see his face turn into a small smirk. Please not me.

When all the boys have a slip, Mr. Greene instructs them to sit next to their partner. I look down at my table until I hear the seat next to me shift as someone takes a seat. I turn towards my new partner. Jasper.
