I start school today, I'm one of the new kids, again. After the whole depression thing after the Cullen's left Charlie thought it would be best for us to move to another small town, in Alaska this time. Fresh start. The only good thing about it this time is I won't be alone, my best friend and new sister came with us, Angel. She helped me through everything they left me in, which also includes saving me from Laurent. That was the day I found out the girl I met in Port Angeles one night during my dare devil moments wasn't human. She's a werewolf, like legit werewolf and not a shifter like the La Push pack, she's larger than them and not as controlled by her anger, then again that might just be here age. The moon however is very much in control. That was also the day she had to turn me or let me die. So I'm part of the supernatural world, and I didn't have to fear going home and killing Charlie. So she convinced Charlie to let her come with us since she had no family ties, most had died years ago, or were elsewhere. It wasn't hard he already loved her like a second daughter, even though she was much older, and she reminded him of how I was after they left, before she showed up. A zombie, stumbling through my days in a haze, unaware of my surroundings. Then there was the life-threatening tendencies, which I still have every now and then, but I also have her to keep me alive. Then she made him look into her daughter's face and he was all for it.
So here we are, Alaska getting dressed for our first day. Angel has on tight light blue jeans ending in black 2-inch heeled boots. A stylish black sweater and a black leather biker jacket. Her ebony hair is straight down her back ending in red tips, bangs usually covering one eye. Around her neck was a plain chain with a wolf paw print on it that she always wore. I was wearing black tight jeans with dark brown boots, a white sweater much like hers hugging my curves and my own leather jacket that she gave me. My hair that use to be chocolate brown was now a dirty blonde. Charlie had already taken Ivory to school on his way to work, she already sees him as her grandpa, it's like they have always been family.
Walking out onto the snow covered front yard we head for her Ducati bike, another thing she tried to buy me my own of, but I thought Charlie might have a problem with that. He thinks were taking my truck to school, hopefully we beat him home. Swinging onto it behind her I wrap my arms firmly around her waist, if I thought they drove fast I was sadly mistaken. We arrived after 5 minutes of leaving and gained the attention of the whole parking lot. Barely sparing them a glance we head toward the office. Behind the desk sit's a slightly overweight middle aged woman with dyed hair. "Can I help you girls?"
"yes maam, were the new students Angel Santiago and Isabella Swan."
"Ahh yes of course let me get your Schedules-here we are have a lovely day and welcome to Denali girls."
"Thank you maam" thanks to a little computer work Angel managed to get most of our classes together. Lets see,
1st English with Joe Tanners
2nd History with Erica Augustus
3rd Math with Tanya Denali
4th Study Hall with Tanya Denali
Lunch
5th Art with Irina Denali
6th P.E. with Erin Smith
"Hmmm we have all but math together."
"great I could have used your help in math."
"ha why so we could fail together?"
"haha lets go smart ass."
English was super easy, were reading books I have already finished multiple times and doing critical thinking assignments on them. History was pretty fun since I got to sit in the back and listen to Angel snort about things the book got wrong, she would know she's lived through most if not all of it. she even dared to correct the teacher once, who now thinks she is just wonderful. I would think that would piss off most teachers. I was walking alone to my math class when I almost froze in the middle of the hallway, there standing by the door to my class as students poured in was one of the most beautiful woman I have ever seen, with eyes I never thought not wanted to see again. I locked eyes with golden ones as they widened before a breathtaking smile formed on her lips. I can't let her know I know what she is. "hello I'm Isabella I was told I need to give you this slip."
"Isabella, I was told you prefer Bella" she practically purred out. Was told by who? I look up at her with an emotionless face "you were told wrong." With that I headed to the back of the class and took a seat. She took her place in front of the class a frown on her face looking out of place before it was gone. "hello class I am Miss Denali and I will be teaching you Calculus. Yes you need this class. My office hours are all week until 5 here in this classroom. We're going to start off with a quick practice test just to see where you all are, and if you are caught up." I sent Angel a quick message with the let V, sure she would understand. I'm sure Miss Denali saw me put my phone away though.
I was halfway through the test, halfway through failing it I'm sure, under the constant stare of the vampire in the room when I felt Angel in my head. She had formed the mid link with me awhile back when I was being reckless in case I got into any trouble, it made us pack she said, then grumbled about swearing she was never gona do that again. "are you alright?"
"yes, but my teacher is a vampire, vegetarian. Same teacher we have for study hall."
"do you feel like you're in danger or will lose control? Do I need to get you out?"
"no I don't think so."
"then I will meet you soon."
I was so caught up in my inner conversation I never saw Miss Denali get up and walk over to me as I stared blankly at the paper in front of me. "are you alright?" she asked quietly concern lacing her voice as she bent toward my ear. I however nearly jumped out of my seat causing her to chuckle lowly, her breath sending shivers down my spine I hope she missed. "I'm fine" she didn't look convinced but walked back up front. "alright class hand your papers up front." I looked down at mine noticing half were blank and quickly bubbled in random answers and hand it to the person in front of me, ignoring the disapproving loop from the teacher. A soft voice to my right caught my attention "hi, im Zoey, I jus wanted to say welcome."
"Thank you, I'm Isabella. How do you think you did?"
"alright what about you?"
"horrible" she laughed quietly, "yah not the greatest subject."
"you could say that again, what do you have next?"
"here actually, study hall."
"oh cool same here." If looks could kill the glare Miss Denali was giving Zoey would have destroyed her, I didn't have much time to think on it as Angel walked, well stalked into class, boys jaws dropped to the floor. Some guy even pointed to the seat next to him, she ignored. Anyone looking would see the confident, slightly cocky girl walking into another class, but I have come to know her, tense as can be and ready to act if things went south.
There were no incidents during the silent study hall. I started out talking quietly with Zoey before Miss Denali put a stop to it. Angel didn't think she would be a problem, mostly because she said she could take her. She could take almost any vampire. Lunch went by quickly, we were sitting at a table with a few of Zoey's friends that she introduced as Alex, Andrew, Tina and Kelley. Both Alex and Kelley couldn't stop checking her out as their eyes wandered. They seemed similar to my old group in ways.
My luck however still went down hill as we made our way to art arm in arm. The one class I was looking forward, until I saw who, or what sat behind the desk. Another golden eyed vampire. "Hello class I am Irina Denali, and for today we are going to kind of have a free draw, chose something in the class to draw." Then she looked to me as we had no choice to sit in the front row. "welcome to Alaska Isabella" she said quietly ignoring my sister.
Gym went by without any incidents, I didn't even trip. Another thing I have Angel to thank for, and the wolf. She dropped the bike off before using my truck to go pick up Ivory, I decided to tag along so we could go to the grocery store after.
Tanya POV
I met her. I finally met her, after almost two thousand years without a mate. Two thousand years of practice to gain control and yet I almost slip as I watched my mate walk down the hall arms around that other girl. Then my dead heart almost broke as she put up an emotionless mask while talking to me. What did that damn boy do to her? And who is that girl she was with? There's something about her that just screams dangerous, which is something considering I am a vampire. The way my mate seemed to zone out in class, and the way those two seemed to have a conversation in study hall, yet neither had said a word. Growling at the thought that this girl was closer to my mate then she should be, than me, holding her arm the way only I should. It was after the final bell rang when I saw my mate again in the parking lot climbing onto a motorcycle and I would have thought it extremely sexy had it not been for her wrapping her arms around another girl's waist.
Ignoring the burning jealousy raging through me I climb into my own car with Irina and head toward the preschool my coven mate Carmen works at to tell her all about my mate.
She's beautiful Carmen. Amazing, and she wont talk to me. She's practically joined at the hip to this other girl. I almost lost it today, in class she was talking to this other student and I have never come so close to losing it before. "That's understandable, your newly mated. It will get better the more time you spend with her."
"she doesn't seem like she even wants to be in my class let alone spend time with me. I didn't want to but I may have to use the test she failed."
"she wouldn't even look at me in art, I don't think we got the full story from the Cullen's about how they left." We all went silent at that, could they have lied to us? We consider them family, it would break the trust we have for them if I find out otherwise. I may even break Edward either way. We were standing in front of the school as parents picked up their kids when I noticed a little girl sitting by the swings by herself. "is she new Carmen? I don't remember seeing her here before."
"yes today was her first day, she's a sweetheart. Her name is Ivory, I'm guessing it is because of the hair." Her hair was a shiny ivory white. "she seems to have a little problem making friends, soent recess on the bench with me."
"she's a little cutie that's for sure." I watched as a big beautiful smile lit up her face and eyes as an ugly old rusted truck pulled into the lot. My mate was in the passenger side laughing at something the driver had said. Her and the other girl Angel climbed out as Ivory came up to us. "goodbye miss Carmen" her tiny little voice reached my ears and I couldn't stop the smile from reaching my face. "Goodbye sweetie, have a good day."
"Thank you" with that she was skipping toward the truck, Isabella scooped her into her arms "how was school?"
"it was ok, that's my teacher she's bery nice." Her eyes widen as they take us in "that's your teacher huh." She looked kind of scared, do we scare her? Is my mate scared of me? My dead heart cracked at the thought.
I flopped down on the couch as soon as we got home. What could I do to get close to her. I could offer extra help and to go over the test she failed. I was so tempted to head to her house and check on her, though I don't want to be anything like Edward and invade her privacy. Privacy, something he knew nothing about because of his gift. I can only imagine how the arrogant prick was in their relationship given the details Alice would share. She was nothing more than a trophy to him, a food source to protect.
The next day I took my time In the parking lot talking to Irina, much to her amusement as I waited for her to arrive. The same motorcycle she left on yesterday pulled into the lot. Swinging off of it and taking her helmet off she shook her dirty blonde hair out, waves cascading over her shoulders she was so damn gorgeous. The other girl followed suit and the whispers began immediately. Their so hot. I'm so gona ask them out. I call the blonde. The hell you do, I couldn't keep in my growl toward the jock who dared to even think of my mate. Irina elbowed me in the side stopping it abruptly and bringing my attention back towards the girls again. Only to be surprised that their attention was on us, well me with furrowed brows. Angel kept glancing annoyed between me and the boy. My mate sighed and looked toward Angel, "let it go A."
"Aye." With that they walked, no they stalked into the building students moving to let them pass without a word.
I was anxiously waiting for my mate to enter class third period as I stood by the door. I saw her a ways down the hallway with her arm firmly wrapped around Angel's as she threw her head back and laughed. Oh how badly I wanted to rip them away from each other, I also wanted to drain the girl dry as she placed a kiss to her cheek and headed off down the hall. Before she could completely pass me to her seat "Isabella see me at my desk after class please." With that I turned toward the class, "alright class I went over your scores ad pleased to see most of you are caught up on the material."
