We pulled up to the Cullen mansion around dinner time, Esme would be cooking no doubt. I tried to get carefully out of Emmett's huge Jeep without success, I stood up and stuck my head out the door I was just about to step out when my foot got caught on the seat and I went flying towards the ground. I tightly closed my eyes and waited for the impact of the fall, but it never came, instead a pair of strong arms caught me. I looked up and was about to thank Emmett when I noticed it was Edward that saved me.

I gave him a strange look as he helped me out of the car and set me down on my feet.

"What? I can't help you? Or would you rather have fallen?" He said in a harsh voice.

"No its okay. Umm, thank you."

"Yeah, sure." Edward said awkwardly. He turned around and walked up the steps to greet his mother.

"What was that all about?" Emmett asked raising his eyebrows.

"I really don't know. I'm surprised he didn't just let me fall."

"Me too. That was sort of weird, and out of character... Oh well, lets go. Esme made mushroom ravioli!" Emmett sounded like a kid on Christmas morning, he always was one to get excited over the little things.

I laughed and followed Emmett into his house instantly smelling the ravioli. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, I couldn't wait to eat dinner. When I opened my eyes I noticed everyone staring at me, Including Edward.

"Umm... hey." I said blushing and looking down at my feet. I hated being the center of attention, I preferred to just blend in. That's what I normally did anyways.

Esme walked in the room and ran up to hug me.

"Bella! I've missed you."

"I've missed you too Esme." I said returning the hug.

"Would you like something to eat? I made your favorite, mushroom ravioli." Esme said with a warm smile.

"I would love some, and i'm pretty sure Emmett would too."

"Huh?" Emmett asked, hearing his name.

"Nothing Em." I said with a smile. I walked into the kitchen and sat down on a stool near the counter. Esme set a steaming plate of ravioli in front of me as Emmett came into the kitchen and sat down beside me with a grin on his face.

"Guess what Bella."

"Umm... I don't know." I said shrugging my shoulders.

"School starts tomorrow!" Emmett yelled, obviously excited.

"What? I thought school didn't start until next week!"

"Nope. It starts tomorrow." He said still smiling. I didn't understand how he could be so happy about starting school. Its not like school was fun or anything, if anyone hated school I was sure it would be Emmett.

"Why are you so excited?"

"Cause I get to show you off to my friends, they'll be so jealous." That was so Emmett.

"Why would they be jealous?" I asked confused.

"Bella if you haven't noticed already, you are very good-looking. They are obviously going to be jealous that I get to live with you for a whole year." He said, like it was extremely obvious. It was very weird hearing Emmett tell me I was "good-looking" He was like a brother to me, now things were a bit awkward.

"Umm... thanks I guess." I didn't know what else to say.

Emmett just nodded and asked his mother for some ravioli, like he couldn't walk five feet to get some. I shook my head and continued eating. To say I was scared would be an understatement, I had to go to school the next day and meet a bunch of new people. I never was really good at socializing, I always stayed quiet and let my friends do all of the talking. I preferred to just listen to their conversations rather than contributing to them.

"Oh, and school starts at 8 o' clock tomorrow morning, so be ready by 7." Emmett said finishing his ravioli. I didn't know how Emmett could eat that fast, I wasn't even half way done with mine.

"Okay."

I finished my ravioli and noticed that it was almost 9 o' clock. I decided that I would go take a shower and head to bed, I was going to have to get up early the next day.

"Esme i'm going to go ahead and get a shower and go to bed. Is that okay?" I asked, knowing it would be.

"Yes, that would be okay. I'll show you where your room is." She said grabbing my wrist and leading me up the stairs. We walked to the end of the hall and she pointed to a door.

"That is Edwards room, and this," she said pointing to the door across from his, "is your room." She led me into the room and showed me where the bathroom and closet were and then left so I could shower.

I quickly took a shower and went back into my room with a towel wrapped securely around me. I then noticed that my luggage wasn't in my room, so I had nothing to wear. Oh gosh, what do I do now? I know, i'll just text Emmett and tell him to bring me my luggage.I pulled my phone out and texted Emmett, hoping that he had his phone with him.

After about ten minutes there was a knock on my door, "Come in!" I said, forgetting I was wrapped in only a towell.

"Wait, No don't-"

I might have lived it down if it was Emmett at the door, but it was Edward. Why did Edward choose today to be nice to me? He couldn't have just made Emmett get my stuff?

Edwards eyes went wide and he dropped my luggage.

"Thanks, bye!" I said quickly pushing Edward out the door and locking it.

Well that was awkward.

We drove into the Forks High school parking lot attracting a lot of attention, but how could we not? Emmett had insisted that we take his monster of a Jeep to school, against my will of course. I didn't want people to stare at me, I didn't even want people to know I was here. I knew that wasn't possible though, news travels fast in a small town, and I was almost positive that everyone knew I was here. Emmett was just making it worse by practically announcing our arrival.

I stepped out of Emmetts Jeep, being extra careful this time. We didn't need a repeat of last night. I - Surprisingly - got out without tripping or hurting myself or any others around us.

I walked in between Emmett and Edward to get my schedule for my classes. We walked into the office where a round woman with red hair sat typing on a keyboard, she noticed someone walking in and looked up. She looked at me, then Emmett, and finally Edward. When she looked at Edward her cheeks flushed and she looked back down at her computer, taking a deep breath before looking back at me.

"How can I help you, Dear?" She asked flashing me a polite smile. Her cheeks were still stained red, it was pitiful, the effect Edward had on women. Even this woman, who had to be in her fifties.

"I'm Isabella Swan," I mentally cringed, "I'm new here and I need my schedule."

"Oh yes, Its right here. I'm Ms. Cope by the way." She said, handing me my schedual and flashing me another smile. I gave a small smile back and murmured a quick thank you before walking out the door. Emmett and Edward followed wordlessly behind me until an average height boy with sandy blond hair walked up to me.

"Hello Isabella, I'm Mike Newton." He said reaching his hand out and shaking my hand.

"Nice to meet you, and its just Bella."

"Okay Bella, I was wondering, would you like to sit with my friends and I at lunch?" He was obviously hopeful that I would say yes, but honestly, I would rather sit with Emmett and Edward. Even though I hated Edward I felt more comfortable around him and Emmett.

"Sorry Mike, but Bella is sitting with us." I heard Edward say. Wait, why does Edward care? Ugh, he was so infuriating. He went from being a jerk to being protective of me in five seconds, and for some reason it really made me mad. He wasn't allowed to be protective of me, he lost that right when he started being a jerk.

"Actually Mike, I would love to." I said, against my better judgement. I really didn't want to, but Edward looked furious. So that was a plus.

"Okay great! See you at lunch then!" Mike seemed a bit too happy. It was a bit annoying actually, but I brushed it off and focused on my schedule. I had Biology first, oh joy.

"Em, wheres Biology?"

"Oh Edward will show you, he has Biology first too." Emmett said with a grin. Of course, It seemed that I attracted all of the bad luck in this town. Maybe even in this state, I just had to have a class with Edward, and it just had to be my first class. Great, now I was going to have an awful day just because of Edward.

"I think we should get going." Edward said clearing his throat and pointing down the hallway. I silently nodded and he started leading the way to Biology. We walked to the end of the hall and walked into a brightly lit room with tables that sat two people in neat rows. I then noticed two things. One, that Mike Newton was also in my Biology class. Great. And two, there was one table left, which had to mean that Edward and I were lab partners. Please kill me now.

"I make the most of all the stress,
I try to live without regrets,
but I'm about to break a sweat,
I'm freaking out."

So it was a bit better, yeah? I would absolutely LOVE some reviews. *Hint Hint* The song at the end is Paranoid by The Jonas Brothers. Old, yes, but it works. :p
