"Are you coming over today Bells?" My best friend Edward asked at lunch. I have 6 friends, but Edward is my best friend. He has bronze hair, which is incredibly messy but he still manages to pull it off and the most piercing green eyes I have ever seen. We grew up together, along with his adopted siblings Alice who also has green eyes and short black hair, spiked in all directions, Emmett has brown eyes and brown hair. At first glance he might seem intimidating because of his size, but once you get to know him, he is a big teddy bear. Then there is Rosalie (Emmett' girlfriend) who is unbelievably georgous with bright blue eyes and long blonde hair. Then there is Jasper, who is actually Rose' twin (and Alice' boyfriend) and he has blue eyes and short blonde hair. They are all georgous that with one look, anyone's self-esteem could drop. I was was of them. With dull brown hair that cascades down my back and chocolate brown eyes, I was nothing to look at. So I was very surprised when they approached me my first day, but we've been friends ever since.
"Sure, I have nothing better to do" I replied,
"What we going to do at the weekend?" Alice asked, being her usual hyper self. I swear she is taking something.
"Erm...I don't know, any ideas?" I asked, looking around the table at my friends.
"Shopping" Alice said,
"Beach" Jasper,
"Shopping" Alice said again,
"Anywhere" Emmett
"Shopping" Alice said again
"Movie day" Edward
"Shopping" Alice
"I'm up for anything" Rose replied, smirking at Alice,
I couldn't help but laugh at Alice' eagerness to make us go shopping, even though she knew how much I hated it. Damn pixie.
"Gee Alice, anyone would have thought you wanted to go shopping" Edward teased, laughing along with me,
"I honestly don't know where you got that from Eddie" she replied,
"Alice, we will go shopping next weekend, but this weekend I just want to hang out, ok, so movie day?" I asked, and they all nodded their heads and laughed even more at the look on Alices face. It was one of pure horror that she had to miss a week of shopping.
The bell rang, signalling the end of lunch and sighing me and Edward made our way to Biology with Mr Banner as the others went to their classes. When we walked in we sat down just in time as Mr Banner came in.
"Right, class today you can have a free lesson as I have tests to mark, but you have to stay in class" he said, sitting down,
I was sat, writing another poem in my notebook and I had just finished it, when it was snatched out my hands. Turning around, I saw Edward grinning whilst he read the poem out loud;
Notes, flying though the trees My heart pounding with each beat And when the music stops A defense against the hurt
Twirling around all the leaves
Entering me through my ear
Taking away all my fear
Ringing from my ears down to my feet
And as I close my eyes
The rhythm in my head flies
All my tranquility drops
Nothing around me makes sense
Because the music is my only defense
That this world will always exert
A defense against the pain
Pounding down on me like rain
"Wow, Bells this is amazing" He said, smiling that crooked smile at me.
"Thanks Edward, but can I have my book back?" I said, smiling sweetly at him,
He handed me the book back, and I quickly put it back in my bag before he could see the others. It's not that I'm not proud of what I write, it's just that I don't think anyone will like it, including my friends.
"Hey Bella" Ewww, I mentally gagged at the sound of his voice. Mike Newton, greasy blonde hair and blue eyes, he was an alright looking guy, it's just he was a bit too friendly with me and a whole lot more pervy. It was just last week that he tried looking down my top I tripped in front of him. I had slapped him around the face, shouted at him, and walked away with my friends who were laughing their heads off.
Soon the bell rang and I groaned. Gym. I hate gym, because I can't even walk along a flat surface without finding something to trip over. As I was making my way to the door, Edward behind me, I tripped. Point proved. But as I closed my eyes and waited for the impact with the floor, I realised that it didn't come. I opened my eyes and was staring into a pair of green eyes. Edward. Blushing, I stood up and out of his hold.
"Thanks Eddie" I said,
"You know I think you need to be carefully chaperoned just in case you fall again, but your welcome anyway, oh and before I forget, don't. call. me. eddie" He said,
Laughing at the pout on his face, we began to walk to gym. Which was horrible once we got changed. All of our group was in this class which was good along with Angela Weber, Jessica Stanley, Mike Newton, Ben Cheney, Lauren Mallory, Justin Dawson, and a few others I don't know. We were playing dodgeball today, and I managed to end up on the floor a total of 7 times. The whole class was laughing at me but I soon joined in. Even though I was blushing like crazy and wished I wasn't so clumsy, the laughter was contagious. I had managed to get Mike out but only because he slapped my arse before we started. I hate him. When will he ever get the message that I don't like him? Never by the looks of it but a girl can hope.
