DISCLAIMER: I do not own Twilight
Short summary: All human, rated M to be sure and maybe for later chapters.
Bella Swan is the boring, weird girl at school. She works at wall mart in her spare time, trying to pay her way through college.
Edward Masen is the laidback, cool guy, privileged the shielding from the school jocks. He was never among the bulling jocks and in on their (some times pretty evil) pranks, but is still in the warmth and respected by the 'higher' class of Forks high school.
Alice Masen is the shopping addicted twin sister of Edward. She does not have the same popularity as her brother, but is still above Bella and Rosalie who is considered among the school freaks. She is on a friendly tone with Rosalie though, and an acquaintance of Bella.
Rosalie Hale is the weird, disturbingly beautiful girl, she is known to hang around with Bella for the most of the time, and that is the major reason for her lack of popularity.
Jasper Whitlock is the tall lion-like boy with the honey hair. He is known for his bullying with the other lead jock, Emmet Cullen, and major partying. No one consider either of the boys as geniuses, but they rule the school and everybody long for being under their protection.
Emmet Cullen is the big body building football star, pretty much the same as Jasper.
C A P T E R 1:
I was late, again! I got a better grip on my back pack as I ran through the hallways of the school. How come this always happened to me? The queen of oversleeping, that's definitely me. Suddenly I felt the ground race towards my face and I almost managed to get surprise before the floor hit me hard. Swearing, I got up, trying to locate the cause of my sudden trip. I found it leaning against the wall in the form of a sniggering Jasper Whitlock. I shoot him an evil glare before I continued my way towards my class. He and Emmet were almost always after me and Rose, just because we actually cared about our grades that made us losers. I shook my head as I cringed and knocked gently on the door.
"Please come in Bella" I felt a blush creep up my cheeks, I hadn't even opened the door yet. I walked in, muttering an apology and hurrying as much as I could to my place beside Rosalie who gave me a pitiful look; she knew how hard it was for me to get up in the mornings.
--
We were on our way to our normal lunch table, when the jocks table caught our attention.
"Hey, Isabella, how's that bruise coming around?" Jasper laughed at me as we walked by, I felt practically everybody in the cafeteria stare at my face, as to try to locate the now famous bruise.
"Shut the hell up Jasper" Rose snapped as we sat down on our table at the farthest corner of the room. The jocks just laughed and went back to their previous engagement. We were soon joined by Angela and Ben, and our normal 'gang' was gathered.
The rest of the day went, close to normal. It was Friday and I and Rose headed back to my place after school. We cuddled up in the sofa, ready for hours and hours with movies and gossiping. Around ten Rose left me to get ready for work. I worked the nightshifts at Wall-Mart every Friday, Saturday and Sunday; this was the major reason for my oversleeping all the time. It really screwed up my circadian rhythm, but if it wasn't for that I would have love my job 100. All the most interesting people was the ones shopping in the middle of the night, some were even regulars.
I snickered to myself as I left my backpack in the locker room and went to the register, but no interesting people appeared during the first hour; my shift lasted from eleven at night and to tree in the morning. It was almost twelve and I was so wrapped up in my own thoughts and didn't look up as the next costumer stood in front of me. I just let my fingers do the job I could do in my sleep (something I actually did when I first started working here), and so I was really startled when a vaguely familiar voice spoke to me.
"Hey" I looked up and found myself face to face with Edward Masen, I and Rose always talked about him as the jocks pet, although Rose was at a pretty good foot with his sister Alice, we couldn't help making a bit fun of him.
"Hey", I answered back wondering why he greeted me at all. Fine, we went to the same school in the same small town, but that really didn't mean much when it came to the jocks.
"So, you work here?" Again, why is he talking to me?
"No, I just snuck behind here in the middle of the night for fun", I replied quite sarcastically, of course I worked here, what a stupid question. And everybody knew that stupid questions gave stupid answers. At least I did, and Rose, maybe Angela and Ben too. Everybody I knew then. Again I was caught up in my own thoughts, and I suddenly wondered if I had offended him by my comment and looked up at him again. No, luckily, he seemed to take my humor, but I decided to try being a bit nice anyway. I wouldn't let this earn me another trip and bruise from Jasper or Emmet.
"I work the nightshift here every weekend." I explained as I gave him a bag.
"Really, that's why you're always late to school then?" I frowned; great I was actually famous for being late.
"Pretty much, have a nice night and thank you for shopping at Wall-Mart" I said, changing to my business tone at the end of the sentence and hoping he would leave me alone. He had an odd look at his face as he left, but I didn't give him any more thought, I had better things to do than trying to analyze the thoughts of a jocks pet.
The rest of the weekend and next week passed in a blur. I talked to Miss Norrings three times during my shifts and slept through the hole Saturday, and basically the whole Sunday to, except when I did my homework. I was tired during the whole week, but was also happily surprised not getting more
trouble from Jasper than normal, and then it was suddenly Saturday again and I was cleaning up aisle five, deep in my own thoughts with the poor radio music as a background noise.
"Hey Bells" the sound of Rosalie's voice woke me up instantly.
"Hey Rose", I replied, she often visited me at work so I wasn't surprised by her presence, but it made me happy. It was always more fun with Rose around during the boring shifts. "What's up?"
"Nothing special, you know how I hate Saturdays; they're no fun without you!" I chuckled as the radio dragged itself through a new song, sounding more and more choked at each line.
"You know, I think you should change your shifts so you at least have the Saturday off, it's no fair your job affecting the both of us" She pouted. I laughed; it was a so typically Rose argument.
"I'll see what I can do" I smiled at her, she looked up at me in surprise, she clearly never thought I would give any response at all.
"Really?"
"Sure, I'll talk to Gillian when you leave." Her face practically lit up at my words as the old radio forced itself to play a new song. This time some old Shakira song was up for the torture. I and Rose burst out laughing as we both recognized the song as one we had been dancing a lot to in second grade. We used to practice fanatically to copy the singer's moves, and as I thought about it Rose started moving her hips and arms as in the music video, I laughed and joined in as she came to the part where she started shaking her hips furiously to the music.
Suddenly I heard a scornful laughter behind my back, and both Rose and I froze and turned to find the source the sudden interruption. And there, behind us in the aisle was no one but Jasper, Emmet, and of course their little puppy Edward. I shot the last a death glare, before I took on my business voice again and asked as polite as I could, well aware of my blush, if there was anything I could help them with.
"No, we're definitely fine" Jasper said breathless as he finally stopped laughing. I straightened my back and felt Rose do the same as we scowled at them with our hands our hips.
"We'll see you guys at school Monday then, if it's not a rerun of the show tomorrow?" Emmet teased.
"Oh, I'm sure we will 'see' you guys at school alright." Rose said with venom in her voice, like we didn't know the whole school would know before the sun rose again in the morning.
A/N:
Ok, this is my fist fan fiction, please review! I do have a plot for this, so I can promise you it's going somewhere, but I would like to see what you guys think before I post anymore. As for the song, I figured it to be "Whenever, Wherever" by Shakira and I would so recommend everybody who's read this to look it up on YouTube and try picture Rosalie dancing that dance in
Wall-Mart. Thank you for reading!
