Okay everyone, don't hate me for this. I know you must all be thinking "ANOTHER NEW STORY!? Is she joking? She hasn't updated her others in AGES!"
I know! But I did this ages ago and I've been delaying in putting it up, so I figured I may as well.
Updating other stories soon. Probably going in this order: After he left me, Love changes, Losing a part of you (I know! How good am I for continuing that? lol) and then Jane's story.
Enjoy this anyway! :)
3rd person.
Three girls strutted through the hallways of Forks high. They were drop dead gorgeous and they knew it. Legs that stretched on for miles, beautiful features, locks of velvet hair and bodies a guy would die for.
The three of them marched up to the table in the cafeteria where three girls sat, who's looks paled in comparison.
"I believe you're in our seats." The brunette stated.
"So, I'd move if I were you." The blonde chipped in.
Knowing it was a fruitless endeavour to argue with the three most popular girls in school the plain girls stood up and started to set off.
"Bitches." One, a scrawny girl with brown frizzy hair and glasses so thick that they obscured her eyes which were her best feature, mumbled.
"What was that, Swan?" The strawberry blonde, Tanya Denali, asked her threateningly. The brunette, Jessica Stanley, and the blonde, Lauren Mallory, looked over lazily with amused looks on their faces.
Isabella Swan felt her stomach flip as she realised they had heard her, she turned to look at her two companions. On her left, an abnormally short girl with horribly tangled ebony hair that almost completely covered her face. She had braces covering her crooked teeth. One of Isabella's best friends, Alice Brandon.
On Isabella's right was a girl who was the opposite of Alice. She was unusually tall for her age and very podgy, her blonde hair was tied back and she was constantly looking to the ground due to her lack of confidence. Isabella's other best friend, Rosalie Hale.
Isabella looked to the other two for guidance for what to do next, they looked just as stumped as her.
"I'm talking to you, Swan." Denali pressed.
Isabella turned, finally and stammered, "Pick on someone your own size, Tanya."
"Well, that rules out Brandon and Hale, that's for sure." She laughed cruelly.
The rest of the cafeteria, who were listening in now, joined in with her nasally chuckle.
"Although you, Swan, you seem just about the right size." Tanya continued squaring up to Isabella now. She shoved her. Isabella staggered back, she was caught by Alice and Rosalie. Isabella was hopelessly clumsy, if she didn't always have Alice and Rosalie by her side, then who knows where she would have ended up.
"Fight. Fight. Fight." The surrounding pupils chanted, slowly gaining in speed and volume.
"Leave us alone, Tanya! Why do you need to prove yourself to everyone by showing that you can challenge the three weakest girls in school to a fight?" Alice spoke up, standing slightly in front of Isabella now.
"Hey, the midget-emo said that they're the weakest girls in school!" Tanya laughed, the other idiots joined in with her.
Three boys walked into the scene curiously. Edward Cullen, Jasper Whitlock and Emmett McCarthy. They were, hands down, the best looking boys in the high school, maybe even the state. They looked upon the three plain girls with impassive expression as they each took a seat on the table. Jasper took at seat next to Lauren, Emmett went with Jessica and Edward took the seat next to the one in which Tanya would sit after she'd finished berating the poor girls.
Isabella, Alice and Rosalie looked to boys with looks of almost pleading, it was an initial reaction, of course if you had a crush on someone you'd look to them for help too wouldn't you? But they wouldn't help them, of course not, that would disturb the social hierarchy. Isabella could hear the murmurings now, "Guess what! Edward, Jasper and Emmett gave a shit about someone who wasn't a cheerleader or a jock. Let's throw meatballs at them!"
"Come on, midge, fatty, four-eyes! What are you gonna do to me?"
Edward rolled his eyes slightly, but everyone aside from Jasper and Emmett were too distracted to notice. Jasper looked meaningfully to Tanya's drink and then to her bag, Emmett nodded subtly.
Edward nonchalantly brought his elbow to rest upon the table but it knocked Tanya's drink over and the spill edged it's way over to her bag.
"Woops." Edward said convincingly.
Tanya whipped around, she gasped and lunged to save her bag from the approaching cola.
While Tanya was distracted Isabella, Alice and Rosalie made their escape.
The three girls scampered to the girl's room, Rosalie was close to tears, Isabella frowned, Alice and looked angry.
When they finally got into the bathroom Alice took a deep breath but Isabella held a hand up to stop her from continuing.
She then leant down so that she could see under all the cubicles, they were all clear so Isabella turned to Alice and said, "Proceed."
"THOSE EVIL LITTLE BITCHES!" Alice screamed, Isabella and Rosalie had already had their hands placed over their ears in preparation.
"I know, Alice, in know." Isabella tried to soothe her, she patted her arm.
"Bella, what gives her the right? What gives her the right to tower over us? Literally for me, metaphorically for all of us." Alice ranted.
Bella shrugged her shoulders, "Nothing, Ally, nothing. But that doesn't matter to her, she'll exercise a nonexistent right."
"I am so pissed off with the same old routine every couple of days, whenever it takes her fancy, I want us to- Oh Rosie!" Alice came to a halt as she saw Rosalie caving into her tears, they ran silently down her cheeks.
Bella and Alice rushed over to their friend and hugged her.
"I'm sorry." Rosalie whimpered.
"For what?" Bella asked perplexed.
"I should have said something, I'm just so terrified of them!" Rosalie put her face in her hands.
"Rose! Don't you dare do that to yourself! It's not your fault, we shouldn't have to deal with this shit at all let alone have to defend each other from it." Bella told her, rubbing her back.
Rosalie took her hands from her face and sniffled. Alice grabbed some tissue and she and Bella lead Rosalie over to the mirror. Alice tried in vain to stretch up to wipe her tears, so she gave up and hand the tissue to Bella.
As Bella wiped Rosalie's tears away she cooed, "Rose, I don't want to see your gorgeous eyes covered in tears."
Alice lifted her jet black hair away from her face to reveal pea green eyes, like the stem of a rose.
Bella took her glasses off, she squinted without them but they adjusted, to show her chocolate brown eyes, which shimmered in the light.
Rosalie dried her eyes and looked up to expose her sapphire blue eyes, like the clearest sky.
They looked to each, then to the mirror, to look at the trait they admired about themselves, the only one they liked.
Bella couldn't see much without her glasses and so returned them to resting upon her nose.
"One day soon, we'll be as beautiful as our eyes, girls."
Rosalie gave a dismal chuckle, "Okay, Bella."
"She's right, Rose. We'll be super hot and then Emmett McCarthy will beg you to kiss him!" Alice said and then made kissing noises.
"Alice, shut up! Just because you want to smooth Jasper's curly, golden locks out of his eyes before you kiss him." Rose said perking up.
Bella giggled at them. They turned on her.
"Excuse me? What was that? Mrs. Cullen." Alice asked as Rosalie giggled and Bella blushed.
"I have no idea what you mean, Alice." Bella turned away, smirking.
"The hell you don't! Why don't I send Edward some flowers from you?" Alice followed her.
"Only if I can send chocolates to Jasper from you." Bella countered.
Alice turned to Rosalie who had caught up," Chocolate's or flowers for Emmett, Rose?"
They all laughed together until they opened the door to find Tanya, Jessica and Lauren standing there.
"We heard ev-er-ry word." Tanya said lengthening out the syllables.
Bella, Alice and Rosalie stood looking at them in horror.
Their crushes girlfriend's had heard.
Before they could react they were tugged out of the girl's room by Tanya, Jessica and Lauren and pushed into the middle of the hallway.
"Hey, everyone, guess what! The three witches think they stand a chance with Edward, Jasper and Emmett!" Jessica cried. All the surrounding teenagers started to laugh. Bella glared at Tanya, Jessica and Lauren, who were cackling with laughter, for some reason Bella thought that she and her friends weren't the witches around here.
Lauren called to the boys in question, "Do you guys want a date with these messes?"
The three of the looked around in terror at the situation they were in, who was more embarrassed the girls or them? Grudgingly, they began to chuckle along with the guffawing crowd.
Bella, Alice and Rosalie's hearts cracked in two at that moment. They ran away from the crowd, pushing their way past the swarm of bodies.
As the girls marched out the school gates and towards one of their homes, it didn't matter who's, Bella spoke up.
"Whatever we do, we do for ourselves and each other. No one will influence us, we'll stick together always, okay girls?"
"Okay." Alice agreed, so past anger that she was on the verge of tears. Rosalie on the other hand was sobbing.
She choked out, "Okay."
The girls left school on that day and vowed never to return to that hell hole.
1st Person BPOV
I recalled the worst day of my life while lying on my bed facing the ceiling. I had a grim smile on my face. It had been for the best really, the final nudge to get us out of that place.
I turned my head to the left, Alice was sprawled across the floor watching something on T.V. We always stayed together now, be it over each other's houses or anywhere, we stuck strong as a unit. We realised that was for the best after that high school fiasco. At least it was a couple of days before summer vacation when it happened.
It's all going to be better though, we're moving, all of us. It's a testament to how close we and our parents are, moving out of Forks to Seattle. If Ally, Rose and I could have our way, we'd live next door to each other.
Rosalie walked through my bedroom door.
Alice and I jumped up instantly and went to her, there had been a problem that she needed to speak to her doctor about.
"So, what's wrong?" I asked.
"Well, Dr. Cullen's really worried about me. He says there's a problem with my heart. I'm just too-" Rosalie looked down at herself despondently. "-big."
Alice and I looked to her beseechingly, Alice cried, "There must be something you can do, Rosie."
"I need to get healthy, soon." Rosalie told us, teary eyed.
We all stood there for a moment, overcome with sadness.
"Well then, that's what you'll do." I said eventually.
They both looked at me, Rosalie doubtful, Alice confused.
"You'll get healthy, and we'll help, it's all about the right foods and exercise, we'll all do it and help each other." I resolved.
"Really?" Rosalie asked, hopeful.
"Really?" Alice asked sceptically.
"Of course." I placed a hand on Rose's shoulder, "We'll all be healthy Rose." Rose beamed.
Alice saw Rose's reaction and then agreed with me adamantly.
Rose gave us a watery smile.
