I am a newbie at fanfiction but be harsh with my critique/Review. I love to know how I can improve my writing ability. Also let me know what you would like me to expand on as well.
Chapter 1: Edward the Newbie
Edward's Point of View
It's been a month since I left California and now I am living with my mother in forks. It's my junior year this year. Summer is over and I am starting school again. My name is Edward Swan. I am the son of a firefighter chief and someday I want to be a firefighter too. My father just got attacked a month ago by a bear and I miss him terribly. That's why I had to move her to forks. By the way I have wanted to be a firefighter since I was five years old.
Wow, all this daydreaming is going to make me late for the bus. I rush downstairs and grab my bag. I start to run for the door and I run face first right into the door. I fall to the ground and black out for about 10 seconds. "Edward, are you okay?" I gain consciousness and realize that my mother is leaning over me. I felt my face turn three shades of red and I let her know I am all right. I jump up quickly, hug her and head out he door before she can say anything else.
It's almost class time and this girl comes up along the side of me asking if I am a new student. I assure her that I am and ask her if she can help me find my first class. I show her my class schedule and she tells me she has the same class. That makes it easier on her that I have the same class as her that way she doesn't even have to think of where it is. She tells me her name is Samantha and that she goes by Sam. She asks me my name and I tell her that it is Edward.
She asks me if I like English and I tell her that it is my most hated class of the day. I explain to her that I hate essays and I think they are a waste of time. She agrees with me and goes into detail about how the teacher literally makes you write about stupid topics and expects you to be a pro at essay writing because you are all grown up.
3 Periods later
Thank goodness it was lunchtime and that meant my day was half way done. I sat down at a table with my group of friends. There were a couple of guys and a few chicks including Samantha.
"Oh my god! What do we have hear" I say out loud and then wish I didn't as my face turns pink with embarrassment. A beautiful girl walks in and she has beautiful long blond wavy hair. And a guy follows her that looks like he is in pain. He has long silky black hair. This one girl in our group spoke up and let me know that the girl was named Roselle. Emmett, who was the guy that followed her, was her boyfriend. Then another girl chimed in about that not being the only people coming in.
Right after she said that a girl with spiky black hair came skipping through the door almost dancing and she was so cheerful. Too bad she was taken as well. She was pretty hot. The guy following her had blond curly hair. Samantha told me the guy's name was Jasper and the girl was Alice. My group seemed to know a lot about these people.
Oh my god! Oh my god! Oh my god! The most dazzling girl just walked through the door. She had the most beautiful brunette hair I have ever seen. It was long, shiny and wavy. It seemed to have this bounce about it every time she took a step. Good for me no guy seemed to follow her. Perfect time to find myself a girl I thought to myself.
I got up from my table and began to make my way to her table. I tripped over an apple and landed on my back in front of her. Again I felt my face turn red and it seemed to change four or five shades this time.
I heard her get up after giggling a lot. She walked over to me in the sweetest way and she laid her hand on my head and asked if I was all right. She was ice cold and I began to wonder why. It didn't seem to affect me much.
Bella's point of View
This guy shows up out of nowhere and I watch him fall to the ground. I'm sitting in my group as I usually do at school. I don't technically know why us vampires sit together as a family at lunch but we have done it for as long as I can remember.
Anyway I get up to make sure he is all right cause he seems like a really sweet but shy guy and he just fell right in front of me. I lay my hand on him. Which is probably a mistake cause I am ice cold and not warm like normal humans. So he'll probably figure out that I am different.
I lean away and as I do he begins to talk to me. He begins apologizing over and over again as if he did something wrong. He starts explaining that he came over here just to introduce himself to me. Now he thinks that I think that he is a freak. I tell him to slow down and that I don't think he is a freak and I think that he is quite cute and funny.
My motherly instincts kick in. Yes even Vampires have motherly instincts but ours seem to come earlier than humans. I start to stroke his hair and tell him that it's okay. I think to myself "Why am I doing this? If he still thought I was normal after I touched him than he probably for sure doesn't now." At least I think but hey I could still be lucky.
I ask him his name and he tells me his name is Edward Swan. I laugh a little in nervousness and tell him that my name is Isabella Cullen. I tell him to call me Bella.
All of a sudden I get a strong yearning for his blood and now I have to get away from him before I make a mistake. I tell him I have to go. I know his is a sweet guy but I cannot make him my dinner. I cannot eat him. I help him to his feet and take off as fast as I can to my fourth period class, which is biology. This is my second favorite class. My first I would have to say is art because I love to draw and paint.
