Ch 1
Bella POV:
School. School. School.
Once again I was sitting at the cafeteria table at Forks High School. Just another typical day for me. I had been doing this for the last 70 years now.
Gucci, Prada, Guess, Dior.
Why did I have to be the mind reader? I mean it was helpful sometimes. But not when Alice (my adopted sister) is trying to get fashion advice imbedded into my brain. She had been repeating fashion brands in her head over and over and of course I could hear it. I tried my hardest to block her out.
"Who are they?" I heard the new kid, I don't remember his name, ask.
"There the Cullen's. There kind of weird, you know, they keep to them selves," I heard stupid Mike Newton's annoying voice. I used everything I had in me to not jump over to him in that second and rip his head of and drink his blood. But I couldn't betray Carlisle that way.
Bells. Help Jasper. He won't forgive himself if he killed Mike, at least not in front of everyone.
I nodded. "Jasper just ignore him,"
"I'll try," he whispered, tensing a little.
"Come on. Don't do this to Carlisle," I was the first vampire out of us, apart from Carlisle, so it was my job to keep everyone under control. I could control my thirst best. I needed to hunt tonight. I hadn't hunted in a while, I was going to last night but I got caught up. I was thirsty but no one here tempted me much.

I walked to my table at biology; no one would sit next to me because they were all afraid of the Cullen's, for some reason especially me, Isabella Cullen. I didn't find anything scary about me, but I was me, so whatever.
Then the new kid walked in, he walked past the heater that was blowing full blast. His sent blew into my face, into my nose down my throat and into my lungs. I clenched the table. He smelled so good; I wanted to drink his blood so bad. Something about him made me want to betray everyone in my family, just for a taste.
He had to sit next to me didn't he? Why me? Why today? I knew I should have hunted last night. I held my breath the whole time he sat next to me. At one point I'm sure he sniffed his under arm. He thought he smelt bad, so silly, he smelt good, so much better then good, he smelt delicious, mouth watering. Probably only delicious to me though.
When the bell finally rang over the school I was so relieved. I walked out of the room, not stopping for anyone. As soon as I got outside I ran, and ran, and ran. I ran home, I had to tell Carlisle where I was going. I was going to live with Tanya for a while. Carlisle wouldn't mind, I don't know about Esme thought, she loved me dearly I didn't want to hurt her. I'll just tell Carlisle.
