Damn. Pardon my tongue, but it was time for the next school this year!

Every half a year, my parents, or most people know them as the king and queen of England, send me to a new school, just to keep my cover up! But think about it logically; know one even knows that there is a princess of England! Only a few people are trusted with this royal secret, but the rest of the world was oblivious to the fact I was royalty!

I think it was an absolute waste of time, effort, and money. No one had even suggested that I was royalty, or anything close to it. They thought I acted sort of cut off from the world, distant at times, but that was all! Parents could get really annoying. I sighed and sat in my seat behind Jacob, my personal and most trusted guard.

I watched as the sun set over the horizon, and we drove too fast to make out any figures.

"Where to this time, Jacob?" I asked.

"A little town if Washington. Called Forks." He answered. I sighed.

For my eighteenth birthday, I was to be married to a complete stranger, probably who just wants to wear the crown. Of course, I could always resign the crown, but nothing was really worth sticking around as a commoner for. I loved no media, as my parents had described through their letters, but still, I was born to raise and grow my country, and I was planning on doing just that.

But, that was not how I wished my destiny to be. The crown was really just an artifact, a mere object, and I wanted love. Not artificial love from my prince, but love like you read in books. But then again, love was really only a fairy-tale, and I did not live in one.

Apparently I had dozed off because the last thing I remember was being carried and laid gently on my bed.

I woke up to the smell of bacon and changed out of the clothes I had been wearing and into blue skinny jeans and a white t-shirt. I put on some bracelets and made my way down to the first floor of the three.

"Good morning, Miss Swan." Caroline greeted. I smiled as I sat down.

"Just call me better. I'm sure my parents or Jacob have informed you that I liked to be called that." I said and started eating.

"Of course, Bella." She blushed slightly.

"Are you going to join me?" I asked, a piece of bacon in my hand. She nodded slightly and ate some food. This food was great! My parents have the best taste in food. After we were done, I got up and put my dishes in the sink. Sadie would clean it on Wednesday. "Thank you, Caroline. It was delicious."

"Thanks you, Miss- Err, Bella." She caught herself and I looked at the kitchen.

Wow. My mother probably had hundreds of people working on this place. It was beautiful. A piano was in the downstairs living room, my parents had tried persuading me into lessons, but like any kid, royal or not, I refused and complained until I was taken out of class.

The floor was a beautiful mahogany, and chandeliers lighted the house. I had to stop looking around when Jacob called my name. I followed his voice and met him outside.

"What?" I asked. He threw me keys and a red backpack.

"Time for school." He stated simply, and I was suddenly eager to see my cars mother and father have bought me. I followed him closely to what seemed like a garage, and inside were four glossy cars, just calling out to me. I squealed, as I looked them over.

Jacob was dressed casually, in a black muscle shirt and shorts. I worried slightly.

"You're not coming, are you?" He chuckled and shook his head. I grinned and walked to my babies.

A red Guardian, a navy Jeep, a yellow Porsche, and a red convertible. They were beautiful, and most importantly, they were all mine.

I hugged Jacob and hopped into the convertible, the least conspicuous one. I squealed once again and started driving out. Jacob chuckled at my excitement, but hey, a girl loves her gifts.

"Bye!" I squeaked and drove off.

My GPS directed me through the forest. My three-story house was concealed, and the roads were different to maneuver around. So, I knew Jake picked a good house.

I pulled into the parking lot, and wished I had brought the Jeep, it wouldn't be as stuck out as my convertible was. Sure, any old convertible was nothing, but this was one of the newest ones, so new, that I didn't even know its name. That's why mother bought it for me. Oh well, too late now.

As I got out of the car, people stopped in their tracks to look at it. They mumbled incoherently and I blushed and hurried out of the crowd.

Silver Volvo almost ran me over, but stopped with about two inches between the bumpers of the car to my legs. The windows were too darkly tinted to see who was in there, so I smiled sheepishly and walked over to the office.

"Can I help you, dear?" The secretary asked me kindly. Her warm tone was soothing.

"Oh. Yes. May I have my schedule? For Isabella Swan?" I asked. She handed me the schedule.

"Thanks." I mumbled and walked away. I was engrossed in my schedule and bumped into a small girl.

"Oh, I'm so sorry." I said rapidly and helped her pick up the things she had dropped. I handed her stuff and she took it with a smile.

"Hi. I'm so sorry." I apologized once more.

"No problem." She said nonchalantly. "I'm Alice, by the way.

I studied her features. She was really nice looking. Her black hair was spiked in all different directions, and her green eyes burned intensely with her smile. She was about half a head shorter than me, and wearing a colorful dress.

"I'm Bella." I said numbly. She looked me over, probably seeing a bad representation for a princess. Thank God no one here knew anything about that.

"I think we're going to be great friends!" She said and then turned to a booming laughter. She stuck her tongue out to a buff guy with short, curly brown hair, and brown eyes. I smiled sheepishly.

"Poor girl, Alice. Leave her alone! She just got here." The blonde standing next to him put her head in her hands and shook he head. Alice shot him a glare.

"Shut up, Emmett." She hissed. I smiled, and the blonde giggled. The blonde and Emmett walked away and into a classroom.

"Well, it was nice meeting you, Bella." She said. I smiled.

"You too." Backed up as the bell rang.

"I'll see you during lunch!" She called out. I smiled and ran to my class.

The three classes went by slowly, I had already done these subjects. But when I was out of class, Alice yanked me and pulled me towards a boy with honey-blond hair and she kissed his cheek, needing to stand on her tipey toes to do so.

"Bella, this is Jasper. Jasper this is Bella." She introduced us as if we had been friends for a long time. She whispered in his ear and made him chuckle. They walked me to the line and Emmett and the blond came over, followed by another boy.

"Hey, Edward, Rosalie, Emmett, this is Bella." Alice introduced me. They were sharp-looking kids, all dressed nicely. I was in the front of the line and estimated how much each of our lunches would cost. But Emmett made it cost even more by grabbing two of everything.

"Jeeze! You're going to kill yourself." Jasper scolded. Emmett grinned and Rosalie giggled.

"How much for all of these?" I asked the cashier.

"Cool! Bella's buying lunch! I like her already!" Emmett boomed. I giggled and so did Alice and Rosalie. Edward and Jasper shot him look.

"It's fine, Bella. We can pay for ourselves." Edward said and Emmett pouted.

"No. I've got it. Alice has been really nice to me, and I figured, 'May as well treat you all'." I explained as I took at twenty dollars. I noticed they were staring at my wallet. There was about a hundred dollars, and I knew it was stupid to bring so much, but it was useless to me.

"Well, thanks you?" He said weakly and I followed them to the table. We talked –well, I answered their questions for twenty minutes until and idea came to mind.

"You guys want to come over today?" I blurted out before thinking it through.

"Hell yeah!" Emmett boomed and the others beamed and nodded eagerly. I smiled, glad nothing drastic happened. I couldn't help but notice a glint of evil in Alice and Rosalie's eyes as they silently communicated. But I ignored it, trying not to be too nosy.

The bell rang, and I walked over to my fourth period. Only to find out I was seated next to Edward.

"You stalking me or something?" I whispered and he chuckled, making a weird pang in my chest. I shook it off.

"I was here first." He whispered back. The rest of the school day was a blur and I couldn't wait for them to see my house. Peasant reactions were always funny, to each of my houses.

I met up with Alice and them, my nerves going over board with excitement. My heart flew, and I smiled at the thought of these people actually wanting to be my friends, even if they had no idea that I was rich, or royal. They just liked me. And that's really all I've been asking for.

OK! So, you like? I hope you did, and review to tell me so! TTFN! ~~~Ilianna~~
