Thanks so much to the people that reviewed. You guys made my day. Also thanks to the people that favorited or put this story (or me) on alert. I also noticed that I forgot to put a disclaimer last time. So here it is:
I, in no way whatsoever, own Twilight. If I did I would be super stinking rich, which I'm not so that's proof enough! Also, technically I don't own Ash either, my friend does!
Anyway on to the story. I'm sure you didn't come here to hear me ramble.
A Wacky High School
Chapter 2
Jasper POV
I took Alice's hand and we walked toward gym. She was skipping through the hallway looking at everything with a childlike curiosity, no doubt comparing the new building to the old one.
She looked beautiful with her black, spiky hair and her rosy lips. Her eyes always sparkled and held a knowing look. On her pale neck was her usual necklace the held the coat of arms of our family. She had fashioned it herself. She noticed me staring at her and smiled.
"What are you thinking about?" her voice chimed.
"About you as always, darlin'," I responded giving her a smile of my own. She giggled and came closer brushing her lips against mine. A rumbling sounded from my chest.
"Don't start something you can't finish." I said, my voice coming out raspy. Fortunately, or unfortunately depending on how you look at it, at that moment we arrived at the gym. We both went our separate ways to go get changed.
As I entered the changing room I heard the guys in there talking about us. They stopped talking as I entered the room. All eyes were on me. I pretended not to notice and I put my bag on an empty bench, and then proceeded to take my shirt off.
Most of the guys by now were almost done getting dressed. One of them a small guy with blonde hair and innocent blue eyes walked up to me. He only came up to my shoulders.
"Hi, I'm Ash Stark. Welcome to the school," he said and reached out his hand. I took it and we shook hands.
"I'm Jasper Hale," I replied. The guy seemed nice and honest and I got this positive vibe off of him. He seemed like the kind of person that I wouldn't mind hanging out with.
I had learned to control my bloodlust after several years and now I was almost immune to it. Of course it's still got hard if someone had a cut but not as bad as before.
"I heard that you moved in with your family here. Where're you guys from?" he asked.
"I'm originally from Texas but we just moved here from Canada," I replied. He seemed to listen with a great interest.
"Wow, that's so awesome. I have never lived anywhere but Forks, but I've always wanted to travel. What's it like in Canada?"
"Cold but calm. I moved around a lot since I lost my parents. My uncle, Carlisle, just got a job offer here in Forks and we decide to settle down for a while," I replied. He had this really amazed look on this face.
"Oh, Ash give it a rest. He only just got here," a guy called out. The rest burst out laughing.
"Guys stop it," he said blushing. He looked down while rubbing the back of his neck. He also had a slight smile on his face. Being around this guy gave me a sudden urge to protect him. It was kind of silly, but he just looked so naïve.
"Let's go, class is about to start," Ash said. On the way to the gym he talked about the school, the teachers and everything in between.
Alice POV
Forks hadn't changed that much since we've last been here. We usually don't go back to places we've been to so soon, but Bella really missed Forks and we complied to her wishes.
After the whole incident with the Volturi Edward and Bella decided to go their own way for a while. During this time we all decided to spend time with our significant others and really explore our relationship. Forever takes on a whole new meaning when suddenly you look death right in the eye.
Jasper exited the changing room with a guy about the same height as me. He was talking excitedly about something and Jasper was listening and nodding. I walked up to them.
"Hi," I said.
"Ash, this is my girlfriend Alice. Alice this is Ash Stark." Jasper introduced us. Ash smiled brightly then shook my hand.
"Jasper sure is lucky," he said.
"Aww thanks." I replied. If I could, I would be probably blushing right now. Ash was so sweet.
"So guys, how do like Forks so far?" Ash asked.
"It's fine, a bit smaller then we are used to but it's cozy. What do you guys do here for fun?" I say.
"Not much to do I guess," he answers. "Sometimes when the weather is warm enough we go done to the beach."
"Where is it?" Jasper feigned ignorance.
"Down in La Push. It's an Indian Reservation. It's usually cold here during most of the year but for about two months it actually gets warm, not that it matters around here. People will dive in a wet suit if it means something to do. Occasionally some people go to Port Angelus the closest "big city" we have around here. It's good if you want to go shopping or clubbing, since Forks pretty much lacks in that aspect." Ash explained.
"Is there anything interesting to do in the school?" I asked. The school must have expanded and I wouldn't mind joining some clubs this time around. Last time we were here we used to distance ourselves from the students but I wanted to feel like I was a part of something. We go through our existence doing nothing and what's the point of being immortal if we don't actually live our life?
"There are the sports teams; football, basketball, volleyball and soccer. I'm actually the captain of the soccer team," he said. I tried to imagine the big jocks actually tacking orders from this petite kid. He looked to sweet and innocent for anyone to take him seriously. "I know there's student council and a poetry club and there also might be a drama club. Is there anything particular you're interested in?"
"I've always been interested in fashion, I guess if that counts." I said with a giggle. The likelihood that this school has something to accommodate my tastes seem laughable.
"Well the drama club is always accepting help in the costume department, especially since they lack the budget for many supplies they have to rely on skill alone. I think the cheerleading team is also looking for a new uniform design." He answered. I'm kind of surprised that he knows so much.
At first glance he seems like the kind of kid that all the others would pick on but if I look closely I can see that he's actually popular in this school, not that he notices this. Instead of people making fun of him because of his size and lack of manliness, as some people might say, I think that people actually look out for him as some sort of younger brother. There's nobody in the class that doesn't know him or say hi to him. Even the big bad jocks might tease him but also are very protective over him. I think I even saw the captain of the football team ruffle his hair.
He's very involved with what goes in the school. Just the fact that he could list of several clubs fitting my interest proves it.
"I might give it a shot." I replied. He looked very glad to be able to help me. Then the bell rang and everyone walked to the changing rooms. "Ash do you want sit with us during lunch?" I asked.
"Gee I would've loved to but I kind of mad plans with somebody else. How about next time?" he said. I'm not surprised. The girls in this school are probably all over this boy like bees to honey. I feel sorry to him if the girls are anything like Jessica or Lauren.
