I had been writing this story for a while and finally decided to put it up.

(Alice's POV)

Jasper's marble white hands moved up and down my arms pulling me back gently against him as I gazed out the large window in the living room looking out at the dark cloud cover and heavily wooded area of Forks.

This place holds so many memories…

It was different being here again without Edward, Bella, and Renesmee. I was nervous about getting back into the groove of high school again but also excited. New adventures and people would soon be all around me and that made me even more excited. Even though all of us have to hide what we really are.

"It will be alright, love." Jasper whispered into my ear, turning me in his arms so we were embracing chest to chest, "It's just high school…again." He chuckled and kissed my forehead. I giggled and squirmed free of his embrace as Rosalie and Emmett came down the stairs and walked over to us.

Jasper was sending waves of calm over all of us just to ease the tension of returning to a normal teenage lifestyle.

"You ready to go?" Rosalie asked us.

The electric feeling of excitement shot through me and I smiled, "Of course! Let's go." I took Jaspers hand in mine and we walked out into the garage and opened the doors of my yellow Porsche.

"Hold on!" Esme came running out of the house Carlisle walking up behind her a timid smile on his face, "You four have fun and be careful, alright?" She told us.

"Yes mom, we promise we won't fall out of any trees or break any bones." Emmett said in a joking tone.

Esme shook her head, "I'm never going to live that down am I?" She asked turning to Carlisle.

Carlisle laughed at Emmett's humor and Esme's response, "I don't think that will be a problem with any of you." He said.

"See you later." Rosalie said as she and Emmett pilled into her red convertible.

I tossed my pink and black designer messenger bag, full of freshly sharpened pencils and clean notebooks, into the back seat and Jasper did the same with this plain black backpack.

"Bye guys have a great day!" I yelled to my "parents" as I backed out of the driveway and followed Rosalie and Emmett down the road to school.

"Jasper is it bad that I'm excited for high school when we've only done it about a hundred times!"

We laughed; finally breaking the tension that seemed to surround us wherever we went.

"No Alice, I'm a little excited myself." His smile and the warmth of happiness he was stimulating lightened the mood more.

We sat in silence for the remainder of the drive and when I had pulled into a parking spot in the crowded lot I squeezed Jasper's hand once then grabbed my bag and jumped out of the car shutting the door behind me.

Rosalie and Emmett were already walking up the concrete stairs that lead to the school's main entrance.

Okay Alice! First day as a sophomore in a new school, you can do this!

"I'll see you at lunch." Jasper said closing the passenger side door and swinging this book bag over his shoulder making his way towards the stairs. I looked around at the faces of the people around me. Everything looked just like the vision I had had last night while unpacking a few more things.

"Watch it!"

I turned my attention to a girl with brown shoulder length hair who had tripped over some boy's backpack.

Her response was cut off by the sound of the five minute bell.

Shoot!

I jogged to the stairs and got in a long line of students walking slowly into the building. The floors were freshly waxed and teachers walked up and down the hallways with a smiles on their faces.

Yes, it's definitely the beginning of the year.

I made my way to my locker and put my notebooks on the top shelf and hanging my messenger bag on the hook in the back. I put my jacket in next on top of my bag. The warning bell rang and I grabbed a notebook and a pencil and cheated a little on the "No vampire powers in school" rule by using my super speed to get to English on time.

The classroom was normal, desks in rows facing the white board at the front of the room.

"Please everyone find a seat and quiet down!" The teacher Mr. Martin yelled over the class. Everyone found a desk but continued talking.

The bell signaling the start of class rang and I looked for a place to sit, then I saw her. The girl with brown hair was sitting with her face turned looking out the window next to her seat in the back. I took the empty seat next to her and turned my attention to the front of the classroom.

"Hello everyone! Welcome to honors English two!" Mr. Martin clapped his hand together uncapped a red maker and wrote his name on the board, "The first thing we are going to be doing is writing a biography of a person in the class."

The class groaned but the girl next to me sat up straight brushing her side swept bangs out of her eyes.

"You have the rest of class to pick a partner that for the next two weeks you will befriend and learn enough about to write your paper. Go!"

The girl frowned and looked around the room; I did the same. Everyone had already paired up.

Maybe she's new too.

"Hello" I said to her

She turned toward me and I noticed she had shining blue eyes, a bit of blonde highlights, and straight white teeth, "Hi" She replied tugging the ends of her sweatshirt sleeves over her hands in a shy gesture.

I smiled, friend number one.

"I'm Alice Cullen, I'm new here." I held out my hand and she reached out and shook it jumping slightly when she, undoubtedly, noticed my icy cold grip. A small smile spreaded across her face lighting up her features, "I'm Ella, It's nice to meet you."

I was surprised she didn't tell me her last name but decided not to push her.

"Are you new here?" I asked.

"This is my second year in Forks." She said

"I see" I added

"I don't really…socialize a lot. That's why I wasn't talking to anyone…not a great quality but" She shrugged.

I laughed, "Want to be my partner for this nightmare of a project?" I asked her.

Her eyes clouded and a frown tugged at the corners of her mouth again but she answered surely, "I would love too."

"Great!" I wrote my cell phone number, locker number, and address on a piece of paper and handed it to her, "Want to sit together at lunch and we can start figuring out what to do for the project?"

She ripped off a corner of the paper and wrote on it. When she handed it back to me I was surprised to see only her locker number written on it.

"That would be great; I'll meet you at your locker before lunch then."

The bell rang again and everyone jumped out of their seats and bolted out of the door.

Ella and I gathered our things and walked out of the classroom together, "I'll see you later." She said and walked off.

This could be interesting…
