The girl was just sitting there as if it were normal to be in a classroom before a teacher was. Like it wasn't abnormal for a student to want to be. I had thought at first glance which was short that she was there because she was an eager student only to look a second time and find that in a way the student had hardly been there at all.

She WAS there my eyes told me that but emotionally she wasn't, she stared off and I had no doubt she didn't realize I was even there which is a bit absurd because she was now standing right in front of the girl.

I then started to wonder if the child was blind. I ran it over in my head a bit and realized I had no idea what to do if that were the case. So I thought I would test it out.

Walking the two extra steps that would take me right to her desk when the door I had closed had slammed open allowing a mob of students in and slowly taking the girl out of whatever sort of trance she was in. She then looked up at me raising her eyebrow in question. I took it as a pretty good sign telling me she in fact was not blind and walked up to my seat allowing her to sit up and wipe her eyes as if she was asleep and not wide awake like she clearly was.

The students were all now taking their seats noisily scraping their chairs on the floor in the process and when they finally finished getting situated I thought it time to walk to the front of the class and introduce myself.

When at the front of the class room I looked at all my students a couple were playing with their phones, some listening to their iPods, others were right eager to learn. And then there was the girl, the one I had in a way met earlier who had her head on the desk as if masking herself from me completely.

"Good morning class I am Alice Brandon I will be teaching you may call me Ms. Brandon." I said smiling at the class as if I were happy to be here which I was not. I continued looking at my students when one of them said "You're Hot!"

I then turned to the person who had said it a white boy with curly brown hair green eyes and dimples, most likely popular. "Thanks, though I hardly think that is appropriate Mr. …" he then smiled "Mike. Mike Newton" he said proudly as if his name would mean anything to me, nope don't mean a thing. "Well Mike Newton try and stay school appropriate in my class though I may be new I am not afraid to kick you out." I said now looking at him seriously.

"Yeh yeh" he said turning to his friends and fist bumping as if he didn't believe me, well he'll see the next time he tests it out.

"Ok enough of that time for attendance" I said looking down to my clipboard. I read the names one after another each one earning a different response when I read of the last one "Isabella Swan" the girl I had met earlier lifted her head up to look at me "Is this you" I asked looking at her my eye brows rising "It's Bella" she said in a soft raspy voice. "Thank-you" I said looking down as did she taking up the same position as before.

Class went by pretty easily no real problems other than a few over eager boys asking when I was going to teach sex Ed.

Bella never lifted her head and I didn't question her about it.

I was concerned about her, I felt there were something wrong, something big, but I didn't know what. So I would wait till the end of class to talk to her.

Finally the bell rang and all the kids got up to leave Bella being the last one to go, She was about to walk out when I grabbed her arm. She gasped her eyes going wide as her teeth clenched as if I hurt her which I had no intent to I had only grabbed her a little bit.

She then looked up at me tears now pooling in her eyes.

"Bella is it?" I ask letting go of her as I take a seat on the edge of my desk knocking a few papers over I would have to pick up later. She then nodded her head like me sitting on a desk. She was so thin almost sickened thin. I then nodded my head and looked up gazing into her eyes when I asked if everything was alright. She then looked down as if she had to think it over and when she looked up you could tell she was trying to compose herself.

"Everything's fine " she said in the same raspy voice as before, it was almost like she had earlier been doing a lot of screaming. "Are you sure? You seem like you're a little bothered" I said looking down at the arm I had so recently grabbed. She blushed her face going crimson red a different shade then her normal paleness.

"No everything is fine, do you mind if I leave now?" she said staring at the door as if behind it held the answers to every question.

"Of course you may leave I'll see you tomorrow Bella" she then nodded walking to the door and away.

I then walked around my desk picking up the papers I had knocked over and situated them back on my desk.

The rest of the day went achingly slow. I couldn't help but think of Bella all day, I couldn't wait to see her tomorrow, I swear there's something wrong, and I'm determined to figure it out.

Ok so I know it's not long but I had been thinking about what I wanted to write and it just came to me, tell me what you think ,and if you have any idea for the story , please I'd love the help !
