At least things can only get better from now on, I thought to myself as I walked to biology. Plus, I could spend the whole of biology planning my seduction methods. I already knew all of the material off by heart so I could afford to….
Oh no.
I'd just opened the door. And he was there.
No no no! I wasn't ready! I had so much planning to do! I couldn't just walk in there and make conversation with him, that wasn't the sort of thing I did!
I stood, dithering in the doorway, not sure whether to go and sit beside him, or run away. I was pretty much on the verge of hyperventilating.
All of a sudden, he looked up. And smiled.
At me.
He just smiled at me.
I was suddenly overcome with confidence.
I grinned back and strolled over to his table, head held high.
Too high apparently.
And I was so close! I had just about made it without looking like a complete idiot when I tripped over STUPID Mike's STUPID bag, stumbling forward onto his lap.
Mike beamed at me and wound his hands around my waist. "Hi Bella! Did you change your mind? Because if you did, there's this really great resteraunt opening called…"
"Mike!" I shrieked, "Get your hands off me!"
To be fair, I didn't really give him time too, jumping up and slapping his bewildered face with as much force as I could.
I picked up my things, cleared my throat and strolled to a spare desk that WASN'T beside THCG (That hot Cullen Guy). Unfortunatly, the only one was at the table directly behind him. Oh well. I could look for dandruff in his perfect hair. That would make my job a whole lot easier…
Now….No dandruff , so that was out. Lice? Bad sunburn on his neck?
Dammit!! Where are the flaws on this guy?
I was about to scream at him, "Seriously! Can you please recommend me your hair stylist?", when the perfect head was turning around.
And….wow. He was even more gorgeous up close.! But I didn't have time to look at him! I needed to say something entrancing! Something seductive! But on the other hand, I had to be very cautious. No matter how charming he was, (He looked like a charmer; don't ask me how I could tell). No matter what he said to me, I would NOT fall for him!
"Hi." He said.
I had fallen for him.
Oh. My. God.

How did one choose the perfect seat for charming a little human girl?
I needed to pick the perfect seat to 'set the mood'. I was extremely determined to win this bet, no matter how infantile it may be. Not that I particularly care what the humans thought, but it would make my existence to see Emmett not lay a finger on Rose for ANY period of time. Therefore, I needed to pick that perfect seat.
I peered around the classroom. Should I go for the table by the window? Too much rain. Up front, by the teacher? No. I didn't want to look like a teachers pet, apparently girls like 'bad boys'. Down the back? But what if she had hearing problems? I settle for the table in the middle. One infront, one behind.
Kids were starting to file in, so I quickly sat down, pointedly puttle my books on the chair beside me.
Then Bella walked in. I could tell she had seen me because she'd gone bright red. Plus, for some reason, she looked really stressed out. She stood in the doorway and I could see kids behind her looking slightly irritated at her non-moving-ness so I smiled in encouragement.
This seemed to do the trick and all looks of stress seemed to fade from her heart-shaped face as she strode across the classroom, head held high, so high she tripped over a bag. She landed on the owners lap, a blonde boy who wound his hands around her waist and whispered something stupid about a restaurant in her ear.
She is so HOT!
"Mike! Get your hands off me!" She stood up and slapped him, then walked down the classroom to the spare desk behind me.
Ok. This was it. I had to talk to her. I had to say something really witty or intelligent or SOMETHING!
I turned around in my seat, ready to say something amazing, but her expression startled me.
She was studying mmy face with such fierce concentration, she almost looked angry!
So with my intelligent greeting stuck in my throat, the best I could come up with was… "Hi."
Great, Edward.
But it seemed to be better than I thought because her mouth dropped open and she looked hypnotized.
Um. Does the word 'Hi' have some sort of hidden meaning in this town? Can someone please give me a 'Introduction to Forks' booklet, please?
"H-h-hi." She stuttered, blinking rapidly.
I steamrollered on, giving her my best smile. "My names Edward Cullen. I'm new here. You are?"
B-Bella. Swan" She spluttered
"Hi Bella." I winked. "Would you mind sitting beside me today? I haven't really made any friends yet…."
"Um..yeah." she smiled, seeming to compose herself, "I'd be happy to."
I moved my books and she sat down.
What now? I thought desperately. But she spoke first.
"So where did you move from?"
"Alaska." I replied, distracted, still trying to think of a way that this conversation could take a romantic turn. "But we moved because apparently the girls here were prettier. I guess they were right…" So corny, Edward! Is that the best you can do? After watching 107 years of romances movie, THAT'S THE BEST I COULD COME UP WITH?
"Oh yes." She replied, nodding her head seriously. "Its mentioned in all the tourist pamphlets. We're hot."
"Well. I don't know about the rest of them. You're the only one that's really caught my eye today." I said, my grin growing wider, "Are you the star attraction?" WHERE IS THE HUGH GRANT IN ME?
"Yup" she giggled, "You should come to one of my shows. They're out of this world."
"I might take you up on that. Where can I buy tickets?"
"Oh YOU don't need tickets. Its on me. Come to this address at 7 tonight." She scribbled an address on a piece of paper.
Was she serious? I didn't have time to ask because at that moment, the teacher strode into the classroom. Silencing us.
Was I delusional, or did I just get a date?
