Bella Pov:
ANOTHER MORNING IN WHICH I DIDN'T HEAR MY ALARM CLOCK RING AND I WAS LATE FOR SCHOOL, FORTUNATELY FOR ME THERE WAS ALWAYS MY BOYFRIEND EMMET TO WAKE ME UP BUT NOW HE IS AT FOOTBALL PRACTICE AND I HADN'T HAD ANYONE WHO WOULD GIVE ME MY WAKE-UP CALL IN THE MORNING. AFTER A TYRING NIGHT AND A RESTLESS SLEEP IS INCREDIBLE THAT I AM SO TIRED WHEN I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING FOR IT. I GOT OUT OF BED, LOOKED IN THE MIRROR GUESS WHAT I SAW...... A BIRD'S NEST IN MY HEAD, MY HAIR WAS PULLED IN EVERY POSSIBLE DIRECTION. I GRABBED MY TOILETRIES BAG AND WENT TO THE BATHROOM TO CLEAN MYSELF UP FOR THE DAY. HOW MANY TIMES ARE WE WONDERING HOW IT WOULD BE LIKE TO WAKE UP AND BE A DIFFERENT PERSON, TO HAVE A DIFFERENT LIFE .
OH GOD !!!! ENOUGH WITH THE PHILOSOPHIC TALK ANYWAY IT WON'T MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE, I WILL STILL BE "PLAIN JANE". I GOT OUT OF THE BATHROOM FRESH AND CLEAN, SMELLING LIKE MY FAVORITE STRAWBERRY SHAMPOO. I GOT IN MY ROOM TO GET DRESSED FOR ANOTHER DAY OF THE HELL ON EARTH I LIKE TO CALL SCHOOL, I HADN'T HAD MANY FRIENDS EXCEPT MY CLOSEST FRIENDS EMMET, ALICE, JASPER, ANGELA, AND MY COLLEAGUES IN THE DRAMA CLUB , I KNOW SEVERAL PEOPLE IN THE HELL I LIKE TO CALL SCHOOL, LIKE MIKE NEWTON, MY PERSONAL STALKER SINCE FRESHMAN YEAR, AND SOME OTHER PEOPLE. I GRABBED SOMETHING FROM MY CLOSET, I'VE NEVER BEEN THE KIND OF PERSON TO CARE ABOUT MY APPEARANCE, ALICE, MY BEST FRIEND NEVER APPROVED WHAT I WORE AND ALWAYS DRAGGED ME SHOPPING WITH HER. MAYBE IT'S TIME THAT I START TO CARE ABOUT THE WAY I LOOKED THAT WILL MAKE ALICE HAPPY. I GOT DRESSED IN A LIGHT GRAY LONG CASHMERE SWEATER WITH A WIDE ROUND NECK, SOME STRAIGHT DARK JEANS AND A PAIR OF MIDNIGHT BLUE BALLET FLATS WITH A BIG BLACK BOW ON FRONT. BUT I WILL THINK OF THAT SOME OTHER TIME BECAUSE THAT WILL REQUIRE ANOTHER PHILOSOPHICAL TALK WHIT MYSELF AND I AM ALREADY RUNNING LATE. AFTER I GOT DRESSED I RAN TO THE KITCHEN AND GRABBED A CEREAL BAR, WENT UPSTAIRS TO GRAB MY BAG FOR SCHOOL AND KEYS TO MY CAR AND RAN OUT THE DOOR.
I GOT TO MY RED CHEVY TRUCK AND PUT THE KEY IN THE IGNITION, TURNED THE KEY AND...... NOTHING...... NOTHING HAPPENED OR NOTHING THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN HAPPENED. "OH NO ! ! ! ! COME ON BABY DON'T LEAVE ME NOW YOU CAN LEAVE ME TOMORROW JUST NOT NOW."
NOW THIS HAPPENS TO ME, FIRST I DON'T HEAR THE ALARM CLOCK AND NOW THIS, I GUESS THERE'S NOTHING LEFT TO DO I GUESS I'LL TAKE THE BUSS TO SCHOOL TODAY.I GOT TO THE BUS STATION AND WAITED FOR THE BUS TO COME, I DIDN'T HAVE TO WAIT LONG BECAUSE IT ARRIVED 5 MINUTES LATER. I GOT IN AND TRIED TO SEE IF I KNEW ANYONE. I SPOTTED ANGELA'S BOYFRIEND BEN AND HEADED TO A NEAR SPOT BESIDE HIM AND THAT WAS WHEN I SAW HIM....
I FOUND MYSELF STARING AT THE MOST BEAUTIFULL GREEN EYES I HAD EVER SEEN. HE HAD THE MOST ENCHANTING GREEN EYES AND BRONZE HAIR. HE IS STRANGE, DISTANT, GORGEOUS, BUT HE HAS SOMETHING THAT FASCINATES ME, HE'S TALL, WITH RAVISHED BRONZE HAIR, A PALE WHITE FACE AND A PAIR OF ENCHANTING GREEN EYES THAT CAN KEEP YOU LOCKED IN THEIR GAZE. I HEPT STARRING AT THE TEENAGER IN FRONT OF ME UNTIL THE BUS STARTED TO MOVE AND DRAGGED ME OUT OF MY REVERIE. I SAT DOWN ON A SEAT IN THE BACK AND STARED AT HIS UPPER BACK. I HAD NO IDEA WHO HE WAS, BUT I COULDN'T GET HIS GREEN EYES AND BRONZE HAIR OUT OF MY MIND. HE WAS PERFECT, HE WAS THE MAN OF MY DREAMS. WAIT ! ! WHAT AM I THINKING "MAN OF MY DREAMS" I DON'T EVEN KNOW HIM ANDI,M ALREADY STATING MY POSSESSION ON HIM. HE WOULD PROBABLY THINK I'M THE FREAK STALKER THAT HAS A SHRINE BUILT IN HER CLOSET FOR HIM. CREEPY....
FOR THE WHOLE RIDE MY MIND WAS OCCUPIED BY THE ONLY ONE PERSON, THE GREEN-EYED BEAUTY IN THE SEAT FROM THE MIDDLE OF THE BUS. SUDDENTLY THE BUS WAS NEARLY EMPTY AND THE ONLY PERSONS IN IT WERE THE GREEN-EYED BEAUTY, ANGELA"S BOYFRIEND BEN AND PLAIN OLD BELLA. I STARTED TO WALK DOWN THE BUS TO GET TO THE DOOR I KEPT MY EYES DOWN LOOKING AT THE GROUND NOT WANTING TO EMBARRAS MYSELF IN FRONT OF HIM BUT AS THE WORLDS BIGGEST KLUTZ I BUMPED INTO SOMETHING HARD AND WAS FALLING TO THE GROUND WHEN TWO STRONG ARMS CAUGHT ME AND STADIED ME. ABRUPTLY I REALISED WHO HAD I BUMPED INTO.......GREEN-EYED GOD...........I BUMPED INTO THE MOST HANDSOME MAN IN THE UNIVERSE AND HIS STRONG ARMS WERE STILL ON MY WAIST I BLUSHED FURIOUSLY AND I LOOKED AT HIS FACE, HIS CEEKS WERE A LIGHT SHADE OF PINK. HAD I NOT SEEN WELL? OR WAS HE BLUSHING. NO THIS CAN"T BE TRUE. HOW CAN A GREEN-EYED BEAUTY LIKE HIM BLUSH HIS LIPS WERE WET AND I WANTED TO KISS THEM SO BADLY. I TRAVELLED WITH MY EYES FURTHER AND FOUND HIS EYES LOOKING INTENTLY AT MY PLAIN BROWN ONES AND THEN TRAVELING SLIGHTLY TO MY LIPS THERE WAS SOMETHING IN HIS EYES I DIDN"T QUITE RECOGNISED BUT BEFORE I COULD DIG DIPPER INTO THAT HE LET ME GO AND PULLED AWAY ALL TOO SOON. WHERE IS THE GLUE WHEN YOU NEED IT.
"SORRY" I SAID WITH A SLIGHT FROAN. "I WASN"T WATCHING WERE I WAS GOING"MORE LIKE I WAS WATCHING YOU
"THAT"S OK I WASN"T WATCHING WERE I WAS GOING EITHER I GOT DISTRACTED BY SOMETHING" HE SAID
