I have never been more nervous in my life.
Today is the first day of high school and to top it off I just moved to this small town called Forks so everyone except me is going to have tons of friends.
How could this happen? I had high school all planned out back in Phoenix. My friends and I were all going to the same high school. Here, I have no one except my dad Charlie.
"Here we are." My dad says as we pull into the parking lot. It's so small! Even worse.
"Kay dad. I'll see you after school." I open the door and pull out my book bag.
"Good luck!" Ya right. Like that will help. Then my dad pulls out of the drive way.
First, I plan on going to the office to get a schedule.
When I walk through the door marked Front Office, there is a plump, old lady sitting behind a computer.
"Hello dear. How may I help you?" she says with a comforting voice.
"Well, I know most of the students here got their schedules in the mail but I just moved here so I was wondering if I could get it now." I say in my most polite voice.
"Of course. What's your name?"
"Isabella Swan." While shes looking through names on her computer I start to look around the room more.
On her desk is a name plate that reads, "Ms. Laila." On the walls are a whole bunch of boring certificates and pictures of students. Then I turned around.
Leaning against the wall was a green eyed, brown haired angel. Suddenly his eyes met mine and I blushed and looked away. When I looked back at the mind blowing face there was a lop sided grin that made my heart flutter. He was beautiful.
"Um… Miss Swan? Your schedule." Ms. Laila tried to get my attention.
"Oh sorry!" I took the schedule from her hand and ran out the door. How embarrassing!
As I started to walk to my locker I heard my name being called.
"Wait Isabella!" When I turned around I saw those beautiful green eyes coming in my direction. Was he actually talking to me?
"Wow your fast. Wait up." He was right in front of me now. "What class do you have first?"
This question took me a while to process and I stood there like a stupid retard. "Ohh! Sorry!" I pulled out my schedule, "Um… I think have Spanish first. You?" he looked at his schedule for a brief second.
"Me too! Awesome. We can sit together." This could not be happening.
"Well we could but I think I should at least know your name first." I couldn't keep calling him a beautiful angel.
"Oh ya that's probably a good idea. I'm Edward Masen."
"Well Edward, you can call me Bella."
He seemed to ponder at this. "Bella… I like that."
We walked into room 103 and took two seats near the back. Class would probably start in about five minutes.
"So Bella. How come I've never seen you around Forks before?"
"Oh, I just moved here from Phoenix."
That's when I saw them walk through the door. It was like a fashion runway show. First, a girl with long blonde hair and tons of eyeliner walked in followed by two other girls just as pretty. They seemed as if they were following the first blonde. All three of them were wearing expensive designer clothing. I was in such a fixation with them that I completely cut off whatever Edward was saying at the moment.
"Who are they?" Edward followed my stare and immediately there was a look of disgust upon his face.
"Oh that's Maddie and her little popular wannabes. They all think they're the shit."
"They sure look like they're the shit." I looked around the room and everyone had their eyes on them.
Instantly, I was jealous. I want everyone to look at me like I'm the most popular girl in school. I want to be popular.
"I don't think they are. I think they're annoying and selfish." All of a sudden the blonde, Maddie, was heading in Edward's and my direction.
She walked right up to Edward's desk and pretended that I wasn't even there. "Hi Edward." She said in a sexy low voice, "How come I haven't seen you all summer?" Now she was leaning on Edward's desk so much that I'm sure he had a perfect view of her chest right now. What a slut!
"Hmm… I don't know Maddie?" his voice sounded a little too sarcastic and Maddie wasn't happy about that.
"Well…" Then the bell went off and the teacher came into the classroom. Saved by the bell! Maddie got up from her revealing position and went to her seat. Edward didn't even look down her shirt once. For some reason I was glad that he wasn't interested in Maddie.
"Hello class. I'm Mr. Calden. This will be your homeroom for the rest of the year. I hope you all have taken Spanish before because this isn't your simple" After a while I decided to block him out and pass notes to Edward.
I took out a sheet of paper. What was that about? I held out the piece of paper in my hand low enough that Mr. Calden wouldn't see it.
After a minute it was thrown back on my desk in a tiny folded square. I opened it and red the perfect cursive. I dated Maddie back in eighth grade and she still hasn't gotten over me Haha. Wow. I can't believe I'm talking to Maddie's ex boyfriend.
Oh really. I doubt that! Jk your gorgeous! Haha He is. I might as well let him know it.
I could see him laugh as he red this and then the paper came flying right back on top of my desk. You know it! Haha but so are you :) He put a cute little smiley face at the end too! Could he be anymore perfect?
The note passing went on all through the period. Edward and I learned a lot about each other. We actually have a lot in common. Especially when it comes to our taste of music.
When the first class was done Edward walked me to Algebra. Edward had Biology second period.
Edward was in my homeroom for Spanish and we both had Creative Arts at the end of the day so I had those to classes to look forward to everyday.
"So I'll see you at lunch?" Edwards stopped me before I walked through the door.
"Of course. Save me a seat!" and with that I walked into the room.
Every seat was pretty much taken except for one in the back next to a super hot, blonde haired boy.
As I took a seat he didn't even say hi to me. It reminded me of how Maddie and her followers had treated me.
"Hi!" I decided to get his attention. Then he turned and looked at me with deep blue eyes but it wasn't a friendly look it was more of a "why are you talking to me?" look.
"Uhh... hey." He responded then turned his eyes back to the front of the room. I decided to do the same. No need wasting my time. He's a total jerk!
The whole class I didn't even look at him once. Nor did he look at me.
After Algebra I went straight to my English class then lunch.
Finally! I get to see Edward again. I'm glad I have Edward as a friend… I'm glad to even have a friend!
When I got into the lunch room I could see Edward at a table crowded with people. Maybe Edward was more popular than I thought.
When I got to the table, Edward patted a spot on the bench next to him. When I sat down he put his arm around me and held up his other hand, "Everyone, this is Bella."
After that everyone was asking me question about Phoenix and about my interests. The whole school will probably know everything about me by the end of the day.
After lunch, Edward went to Gym and I had Biology. Bio flew by in a flash. Back in Phoenix, I was in advanced sciences so I already knew most of the crap we would be learning this year.
Good thing is Creative Arts is my, and Edward's, last class… together!
When I got to room 101, there were kids sitting on the desks, talking in their little groups. It all seemed pretty casual.
"Bella!" Edward gestured for me to come sit with him.
As I walked over to the desk where Edward and a couple of his friends were I noticed Maddie, her wannabes, and a couple of jocks were in the corner amongst themselves. One of the jocks was the blonde from Algebra. I was looking at them from the corner of my eye but I swear I could see Maddie looking at me. I didn't dare to look and find out thought so I just made my way to Edward.
I took a seat next to Edward on the tiny wooden desk but it was comfortable. I was always comfortable sitting next to Edward.
"This is Alice my sister." He gestured towards a small, pixie-like girl with dark eyes and spiky brown hair. She was beautiful, just like Edward.
"Ahh so you're Alice. Edward told me how you're a compulsive shopper." For this Edward jokingly jabbed me in the ribs. "Hey! You did say that!" I laughed.
"Oh thanks Edward! Well I guess shopping is a hobby of mine. Haha nice to meet you Bella." Then the bell rang. We took our seats. Mine next to Edward while the blonde jock took a seat right in front of me.
While the teacher settled her papers I had to ask Edward, "Whose he?" I nodded my head toward the boy.
"That's Kyler. Total asshole. He's part of Maddie's little clan."
"Order order! Order in the court!" the teacher laughed, "Hello everyone! I'm Mrs. Johnson but everyone calls me Miss J. I know you guys will love this class. I know I do…" Miss J was really nice and I could tell this was gonna be a great class.
Everything was so casual and comfortable except for the gorgeous blonde… well Kyler, who's in front of me. Of course he's not nearly as gorgeous as Edward but I can't help but fall for those deep blue eyes and his football jacket.
Once again I felt the weight of Maddie's eyes on me. She was next to her boyfriend Matt. At least that's what Edward told me he was.
Her stare kept getting heavier and heavier and I was starting to feel self conscious.
Once class was through and Maddie and her clan left I felt so much relief. What was that about? Is there something on my face or what?
Edward walked me to my dad's car and we said are goodbyes but not before we exchanged cell numbers.
I could tell this was the beginning of a beautiful relationship.
Notice Bella didn't say 'friendship'!! Shes still not sure how she feels about Edward OR Kyler but you will find out sooner or later!
Please review!!! I'm sure there's a whole bunch of questions or criticism out there! I'd like to hear it. Sooo please review.
