Ch.2 – A day of firsts

"Alex! Alex! Alex!" was the first thing I heard Monday morning of my first day of school.

"Ugh! I'm up, I'm up!" I replied to the annoying voice of my cousin.

After the fastest shower ever known to men I got dressed in my favorite black skinny jeans, my favorite jeans and a pretty blouse since it was my first day. I liked fashion, I've got to admit I take my time getting ready, but a girl's got to look good. It took us a while to get there, since my cousins truck could be described as ancient. When we finally arrived to the parking lot I noticed most of the cars here were kind of old, except for as big-ass Jeep and a black motorcycle.

"Well, I've got things to do. See you here when school ends" Isabella said with the fakest smile I'd ever seen. She didn't like me. That was clear.

As I was walking to the principal's office to pick up my schedule I couldn't help but notice all the students looking at me. I guess I was the most exciting thing that has happened lately, it was Forks after all. After I found the office and picked up my things I started walking to my brand new locker to get my things in order for my first class.

"Hey there" I heard a boy say next to me

"Hi" I said while I was putting my things away in my locker.

"You must be the new girl" Unknown boy said

"That's me"

"Mike Newton. Nice to meet you" He said.

I finally turned around and looked at him. He was… awkward. He was smaller than me, had blond hair which looked like it hadn't been washed in a while, baby blue eyes and round face. He kind of reminded me of a chubby baby. He was dressed as if his mother had picked out his outfit and had the most stupid smile on his face. He looked like the kind of guy you made fun of in school.

"Stalking the new girl already Newton?" I heard someone say, followed by snickers.

"Leave me alone Hale" He said looking deeply annoyed.

Hale appeared next to me and he was not alone. A big massive guy with curly dark hair and a killer smile was with him.

"Oh! I'm so rude. Let me introduce myself. Jasper Hale, Nice to meet you" He said while he took my hand and kissed my knuckles. He was definitely handsome, in a Californian kind of way. He was tall and lean, eyes as blue as the sea and beautiful blonde hair. "And the massive thing with me is Emmet"

"Nice to meet you both" I said whit a shy smile "I better run, I don't want to arrive late to my first class"

After that I turned around and started walking. As I was leaving my spot next to my locker I heard Emmet said to Jasper. "Dude… did she just blew you off?" and I couldn't help but smile.

My first classes were ok. Some teachers made me present myself to the class, some didn't. I started recognizing some faces, like a girl with crazy curly brown hair, a girl that looked a freaking swimsuit model and a girl who looked like she had too much make up on. Mike was in some of my classes, but I sat as far from him as I could. In my last class before the break the blonde model (as I started calling her in my head) sat next to me.

"You must be the new girl" She said as she looked at her nails. She looked really bored.

"Yes" I answered

"I hear you are Bella's cousin. Is that true?"

"Yes" I answered, making a face remembering Bella's attitude towards me.

"You don't like her" She stated.

"Ehh…"

"Don't worry, I don't like her either. She's a total bitch" She said with a smile in her face. "I'm Rosalie Hale and you can sit with me during lunch"

There wasn't much talking after that, but at least now I would spend my entire break in the bathroom like a total loser. Rosalie looked like the popular kind of girl. Back in Tucson I didn't hung out with the popular crowd. Don't get me wrong, I wasn't a total loser but they just weren't my type. I guess I would have to see how this works out.

When the bell rang I picked up my things and walked out of the classroom and found Rosalie waiting for me. We walked in silence side by side to the cafeteria and I notice that a lot of people were staring. I guess they didn't expect the new girl to be hanging out with Rosalie Hale. I followed her and we sat down in an empty table. A minute later Jasper and Emmet arrived.

"Fancy seeing you here" Jasper said as he winked an eye.

"New girl is here, nice." Emmet said as he sat down next to Rosalie and kissed her in the mouth as if there were no tomorrow. I guess they were together.

"Well, well, well. Look what we have here" Someone whispered in my ear. The voice sounded familiar and when I turned around I was faced with none other than Edward.

"Hi again" I smiled

"I didn't know you knew Rosalie" He said as he took the seat next to me and casually put his arm around my shoulder.

"I just met her in class" Rosalie answered for me "Where do you know her from?"

"I met her at the airport yesterday" He said while he played with the strands of my hair

"Didn't took you long to find your flavor of the month Cullen" A voice came from behind us

"Fuck off James" Edward said, suddenly getting up.

This James kid was as tall as Edward, but he seemed dangerous in some kind of way.

"What? Afraid of some competition?" James said with an evil smirk on his face.

"Join the line" Jasper whispered

Was I in some alternative universe? Why were all the boys interested now? I mean, I was attractive, but back home it was never like this. First Mike, Jasper, Edward and now this creep. What the hell was going on?

The bell rang announcing the start of class again. I stood up and started walking out of the cafeteria when I heard Edward calling my name.

"Hey! Stop" He said when he caught up with me

"What the hell was that?"

"I'm sorry, is just that James gets on my nerves" He said while placing his hand on my lower back and guiding me through the hall. "What is your next class?"

"Calculus" I answered still kind of mad about that entire cafeteria thing.

"Good" He said "I'll walk you there"

"You don't have to"

"I know. I want to"

"Oh"

We silently walked through the school and we finally arrived to my class.

"I guess I'll see you later" He said

"Sure"

Class started soon after that but for the life of me I couldn't pay attention to a single thing the teacher was saying. I just wanted to go home and lay down in my bed. This had been a crazy day. After all my classes ended I was dreading going to the parking lot and facing Isabella. I just wasn't in the mood to face her. When I arrived to the parking lot it was practically empty, and Isabella's truck was nowhere to be seen. That bitch! She had left me! Motherfucker!

"Need a ride home?" Edward asked with a cigarette in his lips. He looked hot as fuck.

"I can't believe she left me here! What the fuck is wrong with that girl?"

"I don't really know. I sometimes wonder if I was drunk the entire time we were together" He said and I couldn't help but laugh at that.

We started walking towards the motorcycle I saw in the morning.

"This is yours?" I asked

"Yes. Have a problem?"

"Not at all"

He got on the biked and helped me to sit behind him. He gave me his jacket since there would be a lot of wind and I didn't have a jacket with me.

"Ready" He asked

"Sure"

The drive was awesome. I could feel the wind in my face and it felt liberating. Of course the fact that I was hugging Edward made it ten times better. When we arrived he helped me to get off the bike and walked me to the door.

"The motorcyclist style suits you" He said with a mischievous smile on my handsome face.

"I'm sure I look like a mess with this crazy hair, but thanks" I could feel myself blushing "Here's your jacket and thanks for the ride"

"You're welcome and keep the jacket. You can give it to me tomorrow when I pick you up for school" He said

"But…"

"I'll see you tomorrow" He interrupted and turned around to leave

I was left standing in the porch with a jacket that was not mine and a feeling that I thought I had forgotten. Happiness.
