Chapter Two: First Day
Beep, Beep.
I heard the annoying buzzer of my alarm clock. I groaned as I shut the alarm aggressively, then looked at the time; 6:15. First day of school, I thought, how lovely. I knew I had to wake up earlier than usual, since I still had to turn in my forms. I had to be at the school at exactly 7:30. I stretched and let out a loud yawn, then headed straight to the bathroom.
I opened the water in the shower, and gave it some time to heat up slightly. I peeled of my nightgown and stepped in. I moaned, as the hot water hit me and woke me up. After thirty minutes of relaxation in the shower, I finally got out. I was known for my super long showers. Too bad, that was considered a short one for me.
After stepping out of the bathroom, I advanced toward my closet and slipped on a black bra with matching underwear. I then picked out a blue baby doll tank from Victoria's Secret, and a white Hollister mini skirt. I put on a pair of blue flip-flops, and then grabbed my iPod, notebook, along with some pens, cell phone, and the folder that contained the school forms; and shoved them into my navy Jansport backpack and left it on the side for now.
I walked to my mirror with my hair dryer in hand, and began to dry it. After it was fully dried, I left it down in long waves and applied my make-up. I put on some blue eyeliner at the bottom of my eye, some blush, and of course the lip-gloss. I put the makeup I just used in a small zipper of my backpack, in case of an emergency of some sort. Before I left the room, I remembered my wallet and car keys. I glanced at my watch, and saw that it read 7:00. I poured some milk and my favorite cereal, Froot Loops, into a bowl and ate it hungrily.
I left the house at a 7:20 with my orange Chevrolet corvette. It had been my birthday gift last year, when I turned seventeen from Charlie. Florida pays well, versus a few years ago when he was stuck at Forks. I loved the speed on this baby.
After ten minutes, I pulled into a tan colored school and parked my car in the parking lot. I quickly got out, and headed to the front of the school, which I assumed where the office would be located. I reached the front desk, and saw a middle-aged woman looking at me in a stern way.
"You must be Bella Swan," she said. I nodded. "Well you're exactly," she said as she cocked her head to the right to glance at the clock, "three minutes late," she finished with a glare in her cold blue eyes.
"Yeah, yeah," I said absently while waving her off. I tried to control my temper, but three minutes?! I might understand if it was ten. Obviously, this woman needed to get laid.
She did not seem to like that, but ignored it. "Your paper work please," she said with a grim look her face.
I handed her the folder, and went to go sit in the chair at the corner of the office while they put together my schedule. I pulled out my IPod, and put on Shake by the Ying Yang Twins. I closed my eyes, and bobbed my head to the beat. After a few songs passed, the sex deprived, woman handed me my schedule along with my locker assignment. Locker 132, it read. I continued down the hallway, and turned right. 130…131…and then there was my locker, blocked by a group of cheerleaders and guys.
There were two guys, and one of them I will admit was super good looking. He had bronze colored hair, and sparkling green eyes; his features were so perfect, almost as if they had been carved. Next to him blonde haired guy with piercing gray eyes. And surrounding them were a bunch of giggly bimbo's.
I coughed, hoping that would get their attention, but they were oblivious. I tapped the blonde one on the shoulder. He turned around, and raised his eyebrows. "Could you please move," I said, "that's would be my locker your blocking."
The young man just stared at me, particularly in the chest area. Pervert, I thought angrily. "Hey buddy," I said snapping my fingers to pull him out of boobie land, "how about you refrain from looking anywhere below the neck, eh."
"Dave," the bronze haired boy finally said, "you are so obvious!" he finished, with a laugh.
The boy that was named, Dave, finally snapped out of his trance. "My bad," he said grinning sheepishly. Well at least he was embarrassed.
"Hi," said the green-eyed boy, "I'm Edward."
"Nice meeting you, I'm Bella," I replied heading to my locker. The Edward guy was still blocking it. "Do you mind?" I said a bit annoyed.
Edward seemed a bit shocked. "Aren't you going to tell me how cute I am and ask me out, "he said questioningly.
I laughed. Who did this guy think he was. Queen Latifa in man form?
"Um, no," I retorted, "now if you will excuse me I'm going to be late for my first class," I finished, after putting my backpack in the locker and pulling out a notebook and a blue pen.
I left both boys, gaping and the cheerleaders glaring. School has not even started and I already had enemies. I just shrugged it off.
I walked to my first period class, AP Government. I looked at the room, to find Alice waving at me furiously. "Over here Bella!" she cried out.
I was very glad to see Alice and know that we had at least one class together.
"What took you so long," she asked, "I thought I was going to meet you by the bathroom to walk you to class."
I muttered a quick sorry then slammed my notebook on the desk besides her, and sat down.
"Someone in a good mood, "she said sarcastically.
"Oh, yeah," I said while rolling my eyes, "I'm just a lovely bundle of sunshine's."
"Anything interesting happen on your way here?" she asked.
"Not really, besides having that front desk lady bitch at me, running into a few cheerleaders and some self absorbed guys named Edward and Dave. You know the usual."
I told her what happened at my locker, and she just laughed, while I looked at her questioningly.
"He was probably mad; cause your one of the few rare, sane girls who doesn't fawn over him."
"I don't get why girls do anyways, I mean has not that good looking," I said, knowing perfectly well he was gorgeous. "Plus has a complete ass," I continued.
"I think girls, knowing has the captain of the soccer team find that a turn on of some sort," she said.
"Ha, yeah, capta-," I abruptly stopped talking. Didn't Alice say her brother was captain of the soccer team?
I looked at her suspiciously. "Didn't you say, your brother was the captain of the soccer team, Alice?"
"Guilty," she said shamefully.
I grimaced. How can someone as sweet as Alice, be related to that Edward.
"I know what you're thinking," she said while pointing to herself, "how can someone as sweet as me be related to him, right."
My mouth was wide open. I guess she was not kidding when she told me she had a sixth sense, for knowing these things.
"But Edward is a nice guy, honestly," she said, "He just has a bad habit of playing girls, that's all."
I scoffed. "Yeah right, your brother is an ass, "I said, "no offense," I finished quickly.
"None taken," she said smiling.
The bell rang and the teacher came in. Class went by fast, and then the bell ringed. I proceeded to Calculus, then Spanish.
The teacher told me to sit at the back of the room. I sat down and put my head down, while waiting for the rest of the class to fill in.
I heard a plunk, on the seat next to me. "Hello, again," a seductive voice said.
I knew that voice. My fears were confirmed, as I looked up. There sitting on the chair next to me, was no other than Edward Cullen. I scowled at him and put my head back down.
"Hey, can I talk to you for a second?" he asked.
I looked at him suspiciously, and then replied, "Shoot."
"Okay, I rarely do this. So it's kind of a big deal. I just wanted to apologize for the way I acted earlier. It was very rude of me," he said sincerely, "I acted like a complete ass; I guess I was just so used to the fact that every girl fawned over me, that was surprised of the way you acted, and didn't know how to respond to it."
"Yeah that was very ass like of you," I said.
He laughed. "Yes, it was. And I hope you except my apology so we can start out fresh."
I looked at him closely, so see if this was some sort of joke. When I figured it was not, I said "Alright, apology excepted."
He gave me a breath-taking grin, which I returned.
We still had 5 minutes before class officially started.
"So," I said, trying to strike up a conversation, "Alice tells me you're the soccer captain."
"You talk about me, with my sister," he said raising his eye brows, "I always knew you would fall for my charms," he finished jokingly, like we were best friends or something.
"Yes, I just have a huge crush on you and I stalk you, "I said, rolling my eyes.
"I knew it," he said, "but yeah I am the captain."
"Sweet, how many opening to do guys have this year."
"Five," he replied, "why you interested?" he asked grinning.
"Possibly," I answered.
"You any good?"
"I know a little some some," I said while smirking. I knew I was good, but I did not want to rub it in his face. In addition, he would see if I ever decided to try out.
"Well, if you do know, you should most defiantly try out," he said, "we need more girls in our team. And we only have one other girl in our team."I said glad I would not be the only girl on the team, if I made it.
"Try outs are tomorrow at three-thirty," he continued, "you should defiantly come."
"I'll see," I finished as the bell rang.
We stopped talking and tuned our attention to the teacher. I wasn't really paying attention; I kept thinking about Edward. He really was beautiful. Ah what was I thinking! I just hated his guts, only ten minutes ago, and besides he would never be interested in a girl like me. I was too plain, with the brown hair and brown eyes thing going on. English, Calculus, and Art went by fast. Before I knew it, it was time for lunch. I went inside the lunch line and got a tuna sandwich and some mountain dew. Mike Newton, a guy from my English class kept staring at me and slightly drooling. I gave him a disgusted look, and proceeded to pay. I stepped out of the lunch line looking for Alice. I saw her sitting with a small group of people and headed towards her. On my way there, I felt someone tugging at the bottom of my shirt and turned around. It was Tyler, one of Mike's little friends, also from English class.
"Uhm, can I help?" I said.
"Yes you can actually," he said cockily, "I was wondering if you could touch me, so I can tell my friends that I was touched by an angel."
I blinked. Wow. Was that supposed to be some sort of lame pick up line. The ones guys spend hours for looking on the internet.
I was about to say something to him, when he interrupted, "Or if you want, you can have your lunch and then burn those calories together in the drama room," he finished winking.
All right, this guy was seriously starting to bug me. Just then, I heard a deep voice, "Is everything fine here Bella?"
I looked up to see Edward with two other guys. One had golden honey blonde hair with blue eyes and the other was much more buff and tall, with dark curly hair, and warm brown eyes. Nevertheless, the one thing all three had in common right now was the hateful glaring at Tyler.
I managed to speak up. "Everything is fine here Edward, I was just telling Tyler how I don't do three-inchers, sorry," I said, forcing a fake smile on my face.
The entire cafeteria had gone silent, and burst into roars of laughter. I could hear the dark haired guy's laugh over everyone else's though. Me, and the rest of the guys walked over to Alice's table to sit down and I sat down next to Alice.
"Bella!" she managed to gasp out, "that was freaking hilarious!" Everyone else either nodded their heads in agreement, or were still laughing. When the laughed died down, Alice introduced me to the rest of the people at the table.
"This is Rosalie Hale," she said pointing to a beautiful blonde girl, with gray eyes next to her. Rosalie waved kindly at me. "And that's her twin brother, Jasper Hale," she finished pointing to the boy who was with Edward.
"And that's," she said pointing to the other buff boy, who was with Edward; but was cut off.
"I think I can introduce myself Alice," he said in a deep voice. "I'm Emmett McCarty."
"Nice meeting you Emmett," I replied, when I saw him grin brightly.
"And of course you know Edward," Alice said, winking at me. I blushed furiously, although I am not quite sure why. It is not as if I liked him. Did i? No, my mind said, you barely even know the guy, besides he is player.
"So," Emmett said stretching his huge body, "this is the Bella, you've been telling us about, Edward."
I saw Edward throw a dirty look, which was directed at Emmett. He sniffed then said, "I have no idea what you're talking about."
Alice, bless that girl, noticed the awkwardness and tried changing the subject.
"So Bella how about me, you and Rosalie take you shopping after school," Alice stated.
"I don't know, Alice," I said, "I already went shopping two weeks ago."
Everyone at the table gasped. I gave them a confused look.
Thankfully, Edward was kind enough to speak up. "My sister's a bit of a shop-a-holic. Meaning the longest time she stayed without shopping was five days. And even then, she was going crazy," he finished.
Finally, Alice spoke up, "BELLA WHATEVER YOUR MIDDLE NAME IS SWAN. I AM TAKING YOU SHOPPING TODAY AFTER SCHOOL WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT!"
I was shocked. How could someone as small as Alice, have such a loud, frightening voice; I would never know.
"fine," I sighed in defeat.
"that's much better," Alice said, now back to her usual self. The bell rang, signaling the end of lunch, so we headed on to class. I found out Emmett and Rosalie had debate, next with me so we walked to the room together, since I had no idea where it was. I waved to Alice and Jasper as they headed off to their class. In the corner of my eye, I saw Alice blushing and giggling at what Jasper said. Hmm, I thought, I would have to ask her about that later.
As we walked into class and took our seats, we were confronted by two cheerleaders. Both were blonde, while the other was just about as a blonde-haired woman as I was. Especially since her black roots were visible.
They walked up to us, with their chins raised.
"Hi Emmett," the fake blonde-haired bimbo said, giggling.
Hi Jessica," he said clearly uncomfortably, as she inched closer to him, as she bent down to reveal her chest.
Rosalie gave her a glare. The other blonde noticed this and said with a smirk, "Are we jealous, now Rosalie." I decided now was a good time to step in.
"Hey, how about you mind your own business and not flirt with other people who obviously aren't interested."
"Who asked for your opinion, fat hoe," she said sneering.
"Lauren," Emmett said intervening, "you're the one who adds twenty pounds of make-up to that face of yours. Making you the weightier one."
We all laughed. The two bimbos huffed angrily, and trudged off to sit in their seats.
"Nice one Emmett," I said still laughing.
"That's right no one mess's with my girls, especially Rosalie," he said sweetly. Rosalie blushed and looked the other direction.
Classed ended quickly ended, and I hurried on to find the Biology room. I finally found it, about 5 seconds before the bell rang.
"Nice of you to show up on time," said Mr. Bowlas, the AP bio teacher.
I rolled my eyes, seriously what was with these teachers in their issues with being overly prompt.
I sat down on an empty desk of two; the other one was not filled in. The class went on, with the usual introductions and handing out supplies for us to buy. For the rest of the class we watched a dull movie on cell phases. I put my head down, trying to pay attention but failing miserably. Do teachers really expect us to pay attention to these?
I looked over to my right, to find a girl named Angela, from my calculus who appeared to be very smart, falling slowly asleep. I looked over at the clock, glad we had only ten minutes of class left. I heard the door creek open and to my surprise. Edward walked in, looking as graceful as ever. He handed the teacher a pass, and sat in the seat next to me. He gave me a grin.
"Why are you so late?" I asked.
"Soccer meeting," he replied, "don't forgot soccer tryouts are tomorrow. I really would like you to try-out," he whispered. Just then, the bell rang and we walked out of class together.
We headed towards the parking lot, when we were stopped my Rosalie and Alice.
"Oh, no you don't Bella," she said while grabbing my arm, "we are going shopping!"
"I still have to drive my car back home," I said.
"How about we follow you home, then you come ride with us in our car," said Rosalie.
"Sounds good," I replied.
I say goodbye to Edward and the rest, then headed to my car. I sighed and prepared myself for a long afternoon with the girls.
