Chapter 1

Rpov

It was the second day in forks since I´d made the decision to move here. I could´t blame my mom Renee and her husband Paul for being skeptical about the choice I´d made. Literally everyone hated the city - except the people who lived in it I guessed.

One thing I knew for sure was that the reason my dad Charlie had stayed in the rainy town was because he was afraid of changes. His world had turned upside down when Renee left him for Paul and I guessed that the reason he never went out with a woman was because he still loved Renee.

I somehow understood him even though that I never had a boyfriend. Deep down I knew that there was someone out there just for me, and I would wait for that special one and stay committed.

There was one time that I let a guy kiss me, but I regretted it quite soon when I realized that I would´t have true love if I tried to force it. The guy was an asshole though, and he never showed anymore interest in me after that.

As I walked towards forks high school I was glad that the bus was early in the morning which meant that I would be one of the first that had arrived at school.

I could´t afford a car for the moment because all my money that I earned at the coffee-shop in Florida where I had lived with my mom and Paul had gotten to my new apartment in forks but I decided that I would save up some money for a car later on.

For the moment the rain had taken a break and I enjoyed the cold breeze while I gave a black sport car at the schools parking lot an impressive glance. I knew for a fact that the people in the town was poor so I was a bit surprised to see a sport car in the middle of nowhere.

When I entered the reception an older lady greeted me and seemed to know me in an instant.

"Ah, Rose Kent, right?" She stared at me with big eyes behind some old glasses and waited for an answer, even though the answer was obvious because I carried a schoolbag and had a schedule in my hand.

I nodded anyway and smiled and then followed her into a corridor with lockers.

"Here is your locker, your first class is just straight forward and down to the left and if you need anything or gets lost, come see me and I will help you. All right?"

I nodded again and to show of some more kindness I smiled and said:

"Thank you, perhaps I will manage just fine by my own though."

"Good luck on your first day, dear." She said and I decided that the first impression of the school was good, even though it looked old, the woman had made me feel welcomed and my confident raced a bit.

I hang my jacket in the locker but kept my schoolbag with me so that I would´t need to carry all the books in my arms while I walked.

The door to the first class was unlocked and I was once again surprised. Even though I was quite early there was already a student sitting in the back next to the window.

He turned his head when I entered but looked away fast, but I had noticed the dark eyes against the pale skin. A pair of eyes full of hate, not only hate, I realized, but pure loathe.

Now that he had turned away his face towards the window I could see that his brown-golden hair was a bit messy and that his hand covering a part of his mouth and nose. I could´t tell if he smelled something bad in the room but I could sense the frustration from him clear and obvious.

Whoa...

He gave me a glance again and my stomach twisted, but this time it was not only the uncomfortable feeling that I felt. I could feel my cheeks turn red and my heart racing a bit faster, and I knew I felt attraction.

Well... he is stunning... but he hates me for some fucking reason...

The last sentence I thought with irritation and a bit sadness and I sat as far away from him as I could, which was nearest the door at the front.

Students finally started to arrive to the class and the room that had been so deadly quiet before was now noisy with people chit-chatting.

Some eyed me with curious expressions and I tried to pretend that I was invisible by staring down at my desk until I could hear someone call my name. When I looked up I saw the teacher and I got the feeling that he had tried to attract my attention a while and I blushed.

Great. I though sarcastically.

"Rose Kent, could you please sit down next to Edward? These seats was picked by the students at the beginning of the start of school." The teacher said it with a bit harsh tone and all the welcoming feeling I had felt before was gone. He started to write something on the whiteboard and didnt even care to say hi to the rest of the class before discussing the homework.

Yeah... like I would have known that the freaking seats had been taken... Where is... oh no.

The only seat that was empty was next to the glaring guy and I suddenly noticed that he didn´t look like a simple student compare to the rest of the teenagers in the room. He somehow glowed up the room, like he was the center of light. But that was not the only thing I noticed. Compared to the other students he suddenly looked a bit older and more matured and as I got closer I could see strong structures in his skin and his tensed jaw.

I bited my lip and walked unwillingly towards the empty chair. The Edward guy didn´t look up at all.

Hola Eduardo the glaring guy, mind if you smiled a bit huh? Or at least tried to be polite to the newbie?

I tried not to glare at him while I gave him a look, but I was so annoyed of being judged without any explanation. My heart raced a bit when the corner of his mouth pointed up a bit for a second, like he was trying not to laugh. His jaws was once again tense and his eyes switched from humor to frustrated like he though about a joke but was angry at the same time, which didn´t make any sense.

He suddenly met my eyes and I realized I had stared for to long.

I stretched my mouth and turned my head quickly and avoided to look at him again.

He hadn´t seemed angry this time, just curious, like the other students. But I wished that I knew what he was thinking so that I could find a way to not feel the blame for his frustrated glares.

"Okey, we are going to read page 210 and 213 today, Rose Kent, I see you haven´t gotten your books yet, Edward, why don´t you show her to the library?"

The glaring guy next to me went out of the classroom without waiting for me and I hurried as fast as I could after him.

He was taller than I first had thought which made it easier to see him above the other students in the corridor and I finally cached up to him when we reached the library.

"Here you go." He said in one breath and as I was about to thank him I forgot my words as I looked into his dark eyes. His eyes stared at me with an expression I couldn´t understand, but my heartbeat seemed to race again.

I didn´t know how long we had stood there but suddenly the library door opened and because I blocked the way I made a quick move to let some students pass.

We eyed them as they walked by and without saying anything Edward just turned around and walked straight towards the opposite direction where the class was.

"Rose Kent?"

I turned around and already started to feel tired of being recognized.

"Yeah?" I answered a girl with a big ponytail and some old-fashioned glasses and I thought silently that she needed a makeover.

"I can show you around the library if you want? You seem to be a lonely wolf, just like me."

I didn´t answer because if I did there would be a nice one. Sure, I was a lonely wolf, but that was because I had trust issues. The girl on the other hand I guessed would grab into anyone who wanted to hang out with her, I was almost positive, I had experienced that kind before and had an easy time to recognize those people.

She told me that her name was Emily and showed me where I could get the schoolbooks, and then showed me where the cafeteria was before leaving me to hurry to her class.

As I suddenly were abandoned I tried to remember the way back to class and looked a lot more at the clock than I probably needed to as the stress got to me.

A cold breeze hit me as Edward passed me without saying a word and reached the class before I even could get up to the stairs. I wondered where he could have been and why but I couldn´t seem to get very far with my imagination or theories.

The rest of the class had already started to write down notes and I hurried down to my seat next to Edward. A suddenly calmness hit my body as I breathed in the scent that Edward must have left while he had walked into the room. I blushed and wish that my hair was longer so that I could cover my red face but my hair was short enough to be added in a men´s haircut-magazine.

As I started to feel unsure about my appearance I started to go through my short hair with my fingers, even though I had made certain that I looked good before I had made my way to the bus-stop.

I could feel his eyes narrow me but I was to shy to meet his gaze and tried to look like there was a really interested chapter in the book I was supposed to read.

Finally the first class ended but as I started to put my books in my backpack Edward didn't seem to be willing to move just yet. He looked at something through the window and ignored his surroundings.

I didn't notice that I had waited for him to move as the others seemed to have walked out of the class.

"Edward?" I forced out.

He moved slowly towards me and glared for a moment before he took his things and passed me and leaved me alone in the class. He had accidentally touched my shoulder with his as he had squeezed past me and I could still feel the cold against my skin as I slowly walked out of the room.

Emily surprised me with waiting outside the class and even though I smiled I hoped that she could somehow read that I wanted to spend time on my own. She didn't, though.

"Hey, Rose! Want to go to the cafeteria and meet my friends?"

Ah... so she had friends already? Why did she bother to bring me with her then?

I followed her in silence and tried not to search for Edward in the crowd of people, but failed.

As we reached the cafeteria there were just a few people at the tables, which was perfectly fine with me. I could see some students that seemed to need a makeover as much as Emily and I guessed that they had to be her friends.

When they saw Emily they waived happily to both of us and I smiled even though I signed inside.

"Uhm... I forgot something at my locker, I´ll be right back." I lied just to be able to lose some time with the students before it was time for the next lesson.

I tried to look like I was in a hurry and would come back soon, but I had already made a plan in my head to just grab the books I would need to the next lesson and then sit on the floor next to the locker and draw something on the paper in the back of my notebook.

A few minutes later I sat there, as I had planed, and drew stuff in my notebook. After some time I started to ask myself if I should go back to the cafeteria, but just as I had stood up to put myself in a situation I´d rather not be in Eduardo the glaring guy appeared and without looking at me he opened his locker and grabbed some of his school-supplies.

It was time to seek for some answers.

"Hey." I said, and at the same time I asked why this stranger was so interesting, I usually kept my distance with people in the school but I told myself that I just needed to clear the air between us.

Edward tensed, all the way from the head to the feet, and slowly turned towards me.

"Hello..." He answered, probably unsure of what I wanted, and probably irritated and frustrated that I had approached him.

My stomach twisted when I noticed how dark his eyes were.

"I just want you to know that I don´t plan to bother you in anyway, so if you would be so polite and stop treat me like I had some deadly disease in my first day here, that would be great." I wanted to turn away like a drama-queen but somehow his dark eyes forced me to stay in place.

"Rose, I told you a million times! Let me style your hair, you know you can trust me!"

I jumped in surprise and turned around and saw two beautiful girls pale as Edward coming towards us. Apparently one of the girls was also named Rose.

"I can style my hair just fine, Alice. Stop shouting for god sake." The other girl said, and I believed she was right because they were the first people in forks that seemed to care about color-codes and right pattern-matches.

I eyed them in amazement as I could take a better look and I somehow knew that they had to be related to the glaring guy next to me.

The girl that was called Rose looked the most matured. She had long and blond hair and wore a white blouse that was almost covered by a neutral colored jacket and I almost envied her dark brown leather-boots and tried to remember if I had ever seen them somewhere before.

The other girl who was named Alice looked as pretty as the other one, but yet so different. She had a dark pixie haircut that contoured her heart-formed face and wore a denim vest over a black and girly dress.

They didn't seem to have spot my admired glance yet and I suddenly remembered that I waited for an answer from Edward.

My heart jumped when I caught his amused stare and I could help to smile quick before he seemed to get serious again.

"I just don't want to know you, so keep your distance." He finally said.

I bited my lip as I suddenly felt rejected. Who was he to judge me? I thought. It nearly had been a second before I had met his first hateful glare and I hadn't even spoke.

"Hi, you are the new girl, right?" A voice behind me said, but I recognized it as Alice´s.

"Ehm... right. Sorry but I have to hurry to my class." I answered and passed them as fast as I could. Never had I been treated like that before, and even though I had avoid others company before I had never said such awful things in my life.

I went sadly to my English-class, and even though I hoped for the day to get better, I knew deep down that it was to much to wish for.

Authors greetings 1#

OBS! This is my second fanfiction of twilight. My first one is called "Different hearts, and it was mad a long time ago and the story needs to be corrected ALOT, but this is my second attempt to bring you guys into an awesome world with this amazing characters.

As you can see Bella does not exist and have been replaced with "Rose Kent". This is because, even though I love all the characters that Steph has created, I wanted to create a different story, with other possibilities and of course I love the Cullens to much to replace them. So... a tougher girl who are independent and brave, but at the same time different and hopefully an acceptable character to this world.

In the next chapter we will sneak into Eduardo the glaring guy´s brain ;)

(It will continue on from were the first chapter ended. Enjoy) XOXO
