Bella's POV

I walked into the crowded cafeteria, Jessica by my side. She was chattering away to me, but I was too transfixed by the table in the corner. Five inhumanly beautiful people sat around it, their trays untouched in front of them. I was only brought back to reality when Jessica started piling food onto my tray.

"And over there is where I usually sit. You can sit with me if you like. The others won't mind."

"Oh, thanks," I said absentmindedly, allowing myself to be pulled towards the table she indicated. Several other people were already there, and I was getting a full introduction to each and every one of them, thanks to Jess.

"Bella, this is Mike, Eric, Angela, Ben, Tyler and Lauren. Everyone, this is Bella. She's just moved from Phoenix and I said she could hang with us. That's ok with everyone, right?" I saw the corners of Lauren's mouth turn upwards as Jess said these words, but before anyone had a chance to reply, Jess had already started a new topic of conversation about everyone's timetables.

I zoned out again and went back to staring at the far table. I could now see that there were three guys and two girls. They all looked different, yet they were so very similar.

One of the girls had short, jet black hair and the latest designer clothes. The other had long blonde hair and looked as if she were a model. She was sitting opposite the muscular guy, whom I thought must go to the gym every night to keep his body that toned. The boy to his left had the same blond hair as the female, and was very tall. The last boy had bronze-coloured hair and looked the youngest of them all.

However, they all had the same white skin and purple bruises under their eyes.

"I see you've noticed the Cullens."

The voice in my ear made me jump. I spun around, but it was only Jessica.

"The Cullens?"

"Yeah, they're not related or anything though. They're adopted by Dr Cullen and his wife." And then she pointed them out to me, one at a time. "there's Emmett, Alice and Edward Cullen, and then Jasper and Rosalie Hale. The Hale's are actually twins."

She opened her mouth to continue with her little speech, but the warning bell sounded.

"Jess, I've got to go. I need to put my books in my truck and then find my next class." I picked up my tray and walked over to the exit, pausing by the trashcan, which was right by the Cullen table, to discard my waste. As I paused, Jasper's head whipped up and I thought I heard a snarl come from his direction. Puzzled, I hurried out towards the parking lot.

As I was placing my books in the back of the truck, I thought I saw a blur of light dash into the nearby forest. If I was puzzled before, I was perplexed now. What had I seen? Were my eyes playing tricks on me? I was curious now, and I decided to go and investigate. Cautiously, I walked towards the forest.
