A/N: Here is a sort of better summary:
Bella has lived with Charlie for two years now. Renee still leaves in Phoenix. Bella is starting her junior year of high school. She has great friends and a great boyfriend. She didn't think anything would change that that is until the Cullens moved to Forks. What happens when you are attracted to the one guy everyone loves to hate? What happens when you do anything you can to not let people know? ALL HUMAN. OOC.
I don't own anything…
Beep, Beep. Ugh. I rolled over in bed and picked up my alarm. 6:15 in the morning. No one should get up this earlier. I threw my alarm clock on the floor hoping it would stop beeping so I could get some sleep. See I couldn't sleep last night because today is my first day of my junior year. Sure I know this school like the back of my hand, but every year the same thing happens. Beginning of the school year jitters. Also it didn't help that it was pouring down rain…
I heard my door crack open. "Bells, time to get up. It's your first day of school! Don't want to be late. I'm leaving so you better get up!" Charlie said closing my door again.
I groaned and got up. If it wasn't for Chris I definitely wouldn't be here. I would have gone back home with Renee two years ago. Don't get me wrong I love my dad and all; it's just that I hate this weather, and I really miss my mom.
After brushing my hair and teeth, and putting on a brown shirt and jeans, I went downstairs to get a cereal bar out of the pantry. I looked at the clock, 6:45. I had to leave in 10 minutes. Man I hated how early school was. We started at 7:05 every day. It sucked.
After I ate I went to get all my stuff together, but a sudden knock on the door stopped me mid-way upstairs. I walked over and opened the door to see Chris standing there with a smile on his face.
He kissed me on the lips before he said anything. "Hey beautiful, are we riding to school together?"
"Sure, sure, just let me get my stuff. I'll be down in a sec," I said hurrying upstairs to get my backpack. Don't get me wrong, I really liked Chris and all, but I couldn't really see this relationship being a long term thing. Yes, we have been going out for almost two years now, but I just couldn't get to the love part.
In the car Chris would put his hand on my knee as he talked about this year and what he was thinking about for college. I on the other hand, wasn't thinking about college. I still had another year to worry about it. I didn't even know if I wanted to go yet.
"Bella, you have to go to college. It's the only way you could get a real life going," Chris said once I told him I wasn't even thinking about it.
"I know I should go and all, it's just that I'm so sick of working like this. I was thinking about taking a year off and maybe backpacking across Europe or something like that. Wouldn't that be fun?"
Chris laughed at me. "Baby, you don't want to carry a backpack around all of Europe. Besides you have never been one for the outdoors. What changed your mind?"
I turned my head away from him and stared out the window. I could see Forks High School coming into view. "I don't know. Maybe I won't go backpacking; I would just like to see the world or something. Maybe I'll go somewhere warm, and where it doesn't rain."
He chuckled to himself. He knew I hated this weather, yet he never offered to take me home for a long weekend or something. Charlie would have allowed it. He loves Chris.
We pulled into a parking spot right next to Angela Webber and her boyfriend Ben. I hopped out of the car, not waiting for Chris, and walked over to her. "Hey Ange, how was your summer?"
She looked over to me and smiled. "So much fun. I went to Los Angeles! It was so warm there. I loved it," she said. Then she leaned forward so that no one could hear us. "Did you see the new kids yet?" I shook my head. "They just moved here from somewhere. Their names are the Cullens. Jessica came and told me. She also said the boys were so hot. I really don't care though, and neither should you. I mean we both have boyfriends."
I smiled weakly. For how long? I thought to myself. "Yeah, I mean I don't care at all."
"What's that around your neck?" Angela asked picking up my necklace to look at it.
I was a small silver key that I have been wearing all summer long. I haven't taken it off for one day. "Just something I got down in Phoenix."
She shrugged dropping it so it hit my chest. "It's really pretty."
"Thanks."
Chris walked me to my first period class with his arm around my waist. I, however, wasn't looking at him. I was trying to find a face that I didn't know. Though every face I past, I knew.
After going four periods without seeing a new face, I walked with Chris and Jessica to the cafeteria deciding that there were no new kids. Someone must have made up a rumor or something. Then I saw them. They were all so different, but they were all gorgeous. I was sort of jealous.
"Jessica, are those the new kids?" I asked nodding over to their table as we all headed towards the lunch line.
Jessica looked up to see who I was talking about. "Yea, the one on the left is Emmett, then Rosalie, Edward, Jasper, and Alice is the last one."
I looked at the one- Edward? - who had reddish brown hair and stared at him, not realizing I was. For some reason when I looked at him I felt safe. Like nothing could harm me as long as he was here. I know stupid right?
I didn't even notice that he was staring at me too. Once I noticed I quickly looked down blushing. I hope he didn't see that. Chris, however, was oblivious to everything right now. He was too busy talking to Mike about something.
"So where are they from?" I asked as we paid for our food.
"I got this babe," Chris said giving the lunch lady money.
"Chris you really don't have to do that," I protested.
"I know, but I want too," he said balancing his tray on one hand and putting his other arm around my waist again.
Jessica gave me I'll-tell-you-when-boyfriends-not-paying-attention look. Once we sat down Chris was right back into his conversation. I, however, turned my attention to Jessica who knew everything.
"Well something happened with one of the brothers and they got kicked out of their last school, which made Dr. Cullen move here. Though the thing is they aren't even his real children. They were all adopted."
"They all look a little old to be adopted," I said looking over to their table again.
"Oh they have been together since they were eight or so. But here is the scoop; apparently they are all together, like couple wise. Emmett and Rosalie are together and so are Jasper and Alice. Edward is the only one who is single," she said smiling.
Oh, no, I knew that look. That was the look she had when she was going to go after some guy. It was the same way with Mike, which did not turn out good. "Jessica, don't you dare. He's only been here for a few hours. He doesn't need someone hitting on him."
"Someone's jealous that she can't do anything," she teased me.
"Who's jealous of what?" Angela asked looking at me.
"Nothing and no you're wrong," I said with a stern voice.
"Whatever," Jessica said looking away from me.
You know I liked Jess and all, but sometimes it's seems like she just doesn't know when to stop talking. I looked over to the Cullens table. You could tell who the couple where if you looked carefully at them. They didn't seem like the PDA type, but if you watched closely you could see the bigger brother- Emmett? – brushing a piece of hair from Rosalie's face, and the blond boy- Jasper? – flirting with the small girl- Alice? The smallest one of all the boys, but not weak looking, was still staring at me. He met my gaze and I could see his gorgeous green eyes staring into my brown ones. It caught me so off guard I almost fell back into Chris.
My next class was Biology. I wasn't all for the subject, but it wasn't so bad. I mean you had to learn it right? Once I got there I looked for my name on the index card the teacher set out for us.
"Are you Isabella Swan?" a voice asked me as I found my name.
I looked up to see one of the Cullen's staring at me. "Bella," I corrected.
"Oh, right. My name is Edward Cullens," he said smiling. His smile wasn't perfect, but the way he put made my knees go weak.
"Hello," I said taking my seat as the teacher called the class to order.
"Ok class, my name is Mr. Banner. Welcome to Biology II. We won't start anything today, so I advise you to get to know your lab partner. These seats won't change the whole year, so enjoy!" he said with a wicked smile on his face.
"So how long have you been dating that kid?" Edward asked me suddenly.
I almost jumped, considering I wasn't expecting him to say anything. "What?"
"How long have you been dating that boy at lunch? Or are you guys just 'friends'?" he asked making the friends part sarcastic.
I rolled my eyes at him. "Chris and I havebeen going out for two years on November… 5," I said thinking about the date. "Why do you care?"
He shrugged, but smiled. "I just wanted to know if I should tell him to back off or not."
"Wait, you don't even know me. Why would you tell him to back off?"
"I watched you walk to the table with him. You seemed uncomfortable, like you weren't sure if you should be there or not. You thought too much about it to be a serious relationship."
I stared at him in shock. He got all of that by just watching me. That's impressive because it was right. Everything he said was how I felt. I couldn't let him know it though. "What can I say, maybe I just over think things too much. Believe me though, it is a serious relationship."
He nodded, not believing me. "Okay then. Your turn."
I was so confused now. "My turn for what?"
"To ask me a question. Mr. Banner told us we should get to know our partners so that's what I'm doing, so now it's your turn."
I raised my eyebrow. This might be a long year. "Um, okay. What got you kicked out of your last school?"
He sighed looking down. Then he picked up his head and stared at him intently. "Who told you that?"
"No, no, no it was my turn for the question, remember?" Ha! Got him.
He rolled his eyes at me. "Fine, I'll answer it. My brother, Emmett, and I decided to pull a prank on the principle on the last day of school last year. Since my friend knew a contractor he gave us a number so that we could get the principles car onto the roof of the school. That's why were got expelled." He looked up at me to see my reaction. I tried to keep it as composed as possible. "Now answer my question."
"Jessica Stanley heard it from someone. I just heard this at lunch," I told him still trying to compose myself.
"Ah, I heard she is a gossiper. I think she tried hitting on me earlier today," he said. He seemed to be talking to himself then.
"Ugh, I told her not to do that. I guess I was too late though."
"What did you tell her not to do?" he asked snapping back into reality.
"I told her not to hit on you today because you were new to this school and you haven't even been here a whole day. Jessica can get clingy if you let her."
He looked at me for a second. He seemed to be studying me or something. His eyebrows came together and he cocked his head to the side. "Why did you tell her not to hit on me?"
I looked at him for a second shocked. I didn't think he would look too much into it. I looked at the clock, five minutes left. I could stall that long. "Um, well just like I said she can get kind of clingy."
"No, that's not it is it? Why did you tell her that?" he asked again.
"I don't know," I said looking down at the ground. "I guess I sort of just said it without even thinking about it. I mean when I first came here it seemed like people wouldn't give me enough room to breathe, but Chris wasn't one of them. He gave me space before coming to talk to me. I thought you might need it too."
I looked up to see his face softer than before. Maybe I said too much. He only nodded as the bell rang. Then he gathered his stuff and left me there staring at him leave. What just happened there?
Mike and I walked to gym next period, which was the worst class of all. I was so clumsy I could trip over a line! When it was finally over though Mike walked me out to the front of the building where Chris was waiting for me.
"Hey babe how was your first day of school?" he asked putting his arm around my shoulder while he nodded to Mike. The guy way of saying 'sup because it was so hard for them to do that.
"Um, alright I guess. I'm just glad it's over," I said. I looked over my shoulder and Chris's arm to see Edward talking to his family. They were all laughing about something. Once again I felt like I didn't belong here in Chris's arms. I belonged somewhere else.
A/N: Tell me if I should continue writing it or not! Please tell me I should, I really like my idea for this one, LOL.
