First FanFic! R&R please, let me know what i can do to make it better!
I don't own any of the characters, they belong to the genius Stephanie Meyer!
I pulled up in front of the school, I cut the engine and waited for someone to say something,
"Lets get this over with." Alice opened her door and started towards the main building, FORKS HIGH SCHOOL was written in large white letters. What a place to end up, I thought to myself. Of all the places to work in, Carlisle had chosen Forks, probably the rainiest town in the whole of America. And we where staying here until graduation, for definite. I ran to keep up with Alice.
We ignored the stares, I guess you could say we where used to it, every school was the same, everyone interested in us, the constant invitations to go on dates, to parties. Rosalie always got asked by every guy in school, despite the fact she and Emmet where clearly together, the same for Jasper even though he was head over heels for Alice. I got asked the most though, clearly with no one, and with good reason. I had never found anyone I liked. And even if I had, I doubt I would have ever acted upon it, we moved so often it was pointless for me to get attached to someone. People soon realised that we weren't interested and left us to each others company.
We got our schedules and headed off to our separate classes. English first hour, not too bad, I'd had worse. I introduced myself to the teacher and sat at my allocated seat, I glanced over the reading list, I had read pretty much everything. Being single in a house of couples leaves you a lot of spare time, I chuckled to myself.
The morning passed quickly enough, nothing had been very interesting, except for one girl in my English class, she must have sat down while I getting my copy of the play from the cupboard. We where studying Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, one of my favourites.
She raised her hand several times and made some interesting points, unusual for someone to take such an interest. It never really was the case in any of my past schools. I was going to introduce myself, ask if I could copy her notes from the work I had missed on Romeo and Juliet, it wasn't like I needed to have them, I just thought she would have some interesting things to say. But she was out of the door before I had a chance to pack my things away.
As we walked into the cafeteria, almost every head turned in our direction, I thought this might happen, news always travels fast. We got our food and sat down at an empty table, and began to eat. Conversation in the rest of the cafeteria was humming in my ears. I scanned the room, trying to see if I recognised any faces from my classes. That was when I saw her, she was the most beautiful girl I had ever seen, she was pale and her face was delicate, her hair tumbled down in brown curls to just past her shoulders, framing her face perfectly. She wore a blue blouse, with a cling that showed off her perfect body. She was an angel. She looked over and her eyes met mine, she looked away at once, blushing furiously. I wanted to look away but I just couldn't the blush on her cheeks made her face even more beautiful.
"Edward, stop staring at her, you look like a pervert." Alice hissed. I forced my eyes away from her, and tried to join in their conversation, but after about 5 minutes I found myself giving in to my better judgement and stealing a quick glance. I scanned the room, but I couldn't see her at the table she was before. Oh there she was, now sat among a large group of girls, chatting easily, her eyes animated. Just then, a blonde haired boy leaned in from behind and kissed her neck, she jumped a little at his touch, then turned around and gave him a quick kiss on the mouth.
I was totally unprepared for the rage that swept my body, after a couple of deep breaths I was calm, she was so beautiful, how could she not have a boyfriend.
I leaned over to Emmet. "Hey, do you know that guy?" I asked pointing to the boyfriend.
"Yeah, his name is Mike Newton, he is in my Chemistry. A jock from what I gather. Pretty up himself." Emmet replied.
"And the girl?"
"Not a clue, hey Rose, you know who that is?"
"I think she is some sort of prom queen, girlfriend of the most popular jock. Don't know why, she's not much to look at."
I chuckled, typical Rose I thought, always so vain, quick to put others down if someone even slightly suggested they where good looking.
The bell rang, signalling the end of lunch and the start of the afternoon's boredom. I got my books from my locker and headed towards Biology. Once again, I introduced myself to the teacher, he handed me my books and pointed towards the only spare seat left in the class, next to her.
She glanced over as I pulled the chair back, gave me a quick smile and introduced herself, "Hi, I'm Bella." I instantly recognised the voice, she was the girl from English. "Hi, I'm Edward, nice to meet you." I was shocked, a prom queen with brains! She had her folder on the desk and was writing something down on the cover, I read over her shoulder,
Oh my God, this hurts like hell
I had that dream again where
I was lost for good in outer space
Tell me, doctor, how to shake
A waking nightmare that is only
Worse when I am sleeping
I recognised it, it was a lyric from my favourite song, Kill the Messenger by Jack's Mannequin. Her writing was so careful, and elegant. I was being surprised by the second, A 'prom queen' who was going out with the most popular guy in the school, was intelligent and liked Jack's Mannequin. This was just too much, next I would find out that she was a cheerleader!
"I think we have English together, we where doing Romeo and Juliet first hour?" Way to go Edward, i thought, way to sound like a stalker.
"Yeah, that's me, Isn't it such a great play?" she looked interested.
"I guess. I've never had much patience with Romeo though."
"Why not!? He is every girls dream!" She genuinely sounded shocked, I was surprised at how my opinion of Romeo was suddenly changing.
"Hes just so predictable!"
She opened her mouth to reply but was interrupted by the teacher. We didn't speak the rest of the lesson, and like in English, she was out of the door by the time I had even had a chance to put my things away.
Thanks for reading! Review please, anything is very helpful!
