The New Kid

I pulled up to Forks High School with a frown, etched into my face. It was too soon! Too soon to be back in this place! Summer was too fun, too good and too short. Alas, here I was, in the parking lot of school having an internal battle with myself.

To try and enjoy senior year or not to enjoy senior year, that is the question my friends.

While I was still trying to make my decision, I heard a loud squeal. I turned around, knowing fully well who it was, my bestest friend, the petite pixie, Alice Cullen. "Bella! Ah! I missed you so much! I can't believe the Summer's over already, I don't want anything to do with this place!" Alice sighed and looked over at me, "No offense." She added.

"None taken, but I'm surprised, I thought you would've been happy to be back here especially since its our senior year?"

"I am, I am, it's just Jazzie and I had such a great summer in Cali! Bella, you have to go sometime! The sun, the beach, the stores! It was all great!"

"No offense Ali, but that sounds awful!" I gushed as we started to walk arm in arm to the main entrance.

"Whatever Bella! You su-"

She was cut off by a large pair of arms that enveloped us both up and squeezed us until we couldn't breathe anymore. "Emmett... McCarthy." I gasped. "Can't… breathe!" Soon after the arms loosened and Alice and I were lowered to the ground, gasping and coughing, trying to catch our breaths. "Well nice too see you too, Emmett. I see you've been working out this summer, you're even bigger, didn't think that was possible but.."

"That's nice of you to notice Bells," Emmett said, flexing like never before, "and lucky for you, you've got a front seat ticket to the gun show." We all laughed and started walking to school. When we were walking inside, Rosalie and Jasper Hale, probably the most attractive pair of twins you'll ever see, had just pulled up into the parking lot.

Alice screamed and jumped up and down, clapping her hands. Jasper came strolling up with his southern twang, he enveloped Alice in a hug and said, "Morning darling, you look great." He gave her a quick kiss on the cheek and added, "I missed you."

I made a fake barfing sound and turned to Emmett, but Rosalie had now joined him and all I saw was them whispering in each other's ear, the biggest smile from Emmett and I could hear Rosalie giggling. I let out a loud sigh and finished the walk into school, by myself.

I've always been the one that single in our group of friends. Alice and Jasper have been dating since freshman year, they were basically married, and Emmett and Rosalie got a later start, they were both in denial for freshman year so they didn't date but when they were sophomores, there was no denying that they were perfect for each other and they've been dating ever since.

I on the other hand, have yet to find my 'soulmate', as Alice calls Jasper. Don't get me wrong, I have dated a bit during my three years, but the people I dated just never seemed to get along with my friend group. I always noticed myself drifting away from Alice, Rosalie, Jazz and Emmett so every time I decided that they were more important than some high school fling, so they never lasted.

When we all got our schedules, we compared, like we did every year. Luckily, I had six classes and I had at least one of them in four, but the other two would be lonely without them.

We had all gone our separate ways, Alice and I had 1st period together, AP English. While we were walking Alice suddenly stopped and yelled in the middle of the crowded hallway, "Crap! I totally forgot!"

"What? What is it?" I asked concerned.

"I totally forgot! My cousin just moved here and today's his first day here! I was supposed to take him to class and show him around an-" Alice dropped her books and grabbed her hair and started breathing really heavily.

"Alice, calm down, we still have ten minutes before class starts, we'll go and get him show him to his class and then get to English!" I tried to calm her down and it seemed to then headed to the crowded office, I looked around to find someone who resembled Alice. Then I saw a tall guy with messy bronze hair with his back turned to us leaning against the counter. "Alice, who's the hot, tall kid at the desk?" I nudged her with a curious smile.

She turned to me with a surprised look, and through gritted teeth,AQ tapped Mr. Tall and Handsome on the shoulder and said with a fake smile plastered on her face, "Bella, this is my cousin, Edward. Edward, this is my best friend, Bella."

Damn.

Soooo? How was it? R&R?!
