TNKOTB (The New Kid on the Block)
Edward POV
I hate being the new kid.
Especially in the middle of the school year.
As long as I am the new kid here though, I can make the most of it. I do not have to be the lump of a boy that I was, now, I can be who I've always wanted to be. I can Be popular, with real friends, instead of books to keep me company.
I can keep my grades up easily, and if they do fall, my dad, Carlisle knows I am smart and can bring them back up. And if I wanted to, I could let them fall to low B's and they would be fine with it. Yeah, I know total Asian American parents. But my parents are completely American.
Anyway, this guy named Jasper volunteered to help me find my way to each class. He is really nice, I think we may even be friends. Jasper is in all of my classes, and helps me out, by telling me a bit about each teacher.
Ya know, the crabby ones, the nice ones, and the quirky ones.
He also helps me by teaching me a trick to memorizing where everything is at school. He's even nice enough to ask if I need help getting caught up.
I am so grateful to have a friend like him in this school, because this, high school, is purgatory. (An - Midnight Sun reference)
I have no clue why we had to move. At least I had a life then. Not much of one, but still. Anything was better than this.
Before I know it though, it is time for lunch. Jasper goes to the hot lunch line and buys a lunch. I am surprised, because he doesn't look the type to buy lunch.
He comes over to me and says, " I forgot my lunch at home! Again! The lunches here are way better than other schools, though, because it is not standard reg food. It is fresh, and cooked here at the school. You should try it some time!"
That explains it. But I do NOT want to buy lunch from here. Ever. The lines are about a mile long! Well, not really, but you get the point. The food does look amazing, so I may try it if I can get to lunch early.
Jasper then tells me, "Oh, I have to go talk to someone, I will be right back." He goes up to this pixie-like girl and she smiles and jumps up. She gives him a hug, and he gives her a kiss.
He tells her something, and she nods. Her eyes flash to me, then back to Jasper. She says something to Jasper, and gestures at me.
Then I see her. The girl sitting next to pixie-girl. She is beautiful, no, she is radiant. She jumps up, and hugs Jasper too. Alice says something to her, and Jasper laughs, and so do both the girls, though the brown-haired one blushes. She is SO pretty.
I am just putting this up as an intro... It gets better, I promise! Review if you like it!
