I pulled into the Forks High School parking lot, and all the heads turned towards where I was pulling in. I suddenly hated the fact that my truck was so loud, although it had never bothered me before.

I pulled into the first empty parking spot I saw and took a deep breath before opening the truck door. Please don't let me fall out of this truck. That would be a great first impression.

Gosh, I wish Jake was here...

Luckily, I did not trip the whole way to the main office. As I opened the door a lady sitting behind the desk asked if she could help me.

"I'm Bella Swan. Today is my first day here," I told her.

"Oh, Isabella, of course. Welcome to Forks High School. Here, I have your schedule and a map of the school, and would you get this paper signed by all your teachers and bring it back to me at the end of the day?" she asked, handing me three pieces of paper.

"Sure, thanks," I said, turning to walk out of the classroom.

"Have a great first day!" she yelled as I opened the door.

"Thanks!" I called over my shoulder.

As I was walking to the building where my first class was, a familar looking brunette came skipping up to me.

"Hey Bella!" she called, catching up to me. "It's Jessica. Remember?" and then I did remember. I met her at first beach a couple of weeks ago. I was there with Jacob and she was there with her boyfriend.

"Oh, yeah I remember. Where's your boyfriend?" I asked

"Oh, Mike? We broke up," she said, still sounding cheerful.

"Where's your first class?" She asked me, taking my schedule out of my hand.

"Literature. Ok, that's right next to my class. I'll walk with you there," she said, starting towards the door.

She talked the whole way, but it mostly wasn't stuff to respond to. I couldn't of gotten a word in if I would have wanted to. At least I had someone to walk with. Now I knew I wouldn't get lost. If I was on my own I could end up in the guy's bathroom or something tragic and embarrassing like that.

"Ok, here we are. There's your class," she said, pointing to a room in front of us, "We have trig together next, so if you want me to I'll wait for you here and we can walk together.

"Sure, that'd be nice," I said, forcing a smile.

I walked in the class and handed the slip from Mrs. Cope to the teacher.

"Isabella Swan, huh?" he said in a nonfriendly way.

"It's Bella, sir," I corrected him. He grunted, signed the paper, handed it back to me, and pointed to a chair in the back of the class.

As I turned to walk to my desk, I realized all eyes were on me. I blushed and looked down, concentrating on getting to my desk without falling on my face.

"Hey Bella," a boy's voice said from the desk next to mine as I sat down. I looked up and recognized him as the boy who had been Jessica's boyfriend at the beach.

"Hey. Mike, right?" I asked.

"Yep, that's it," he grinned, "So are you still with that indian boy?"

"Jacob. And yes, I am," I told him. He made a face and looked down.

The class passed by surprisingly fast and before I knew it the bell rang, startling me so bad I knocked all the papers off my desk.

Mike chuckled under his breath, but quickly picked them all up for me.

"Thanks," I said.

"No problem. So, do you need a tour guide or something? Because I could be your guy," I didn't miss how he put emphasis on or something.

"No thanks, actually, Jessica is walking me to my next class.

He made another face before saying, "Oh, well, just remember I'm here if you need anything," he winked, turning to walk away.

I struggled to keep my breakfast down. Not that Mike was ugly, but I had a boyfriend, and even if I didn't, Mike would not be what I was looking for. AT ALL.

I walked out the class to find Jessica waiting for me outside like she said she would. The next two periods went by in the same fashion. Jessica walked with me, talking animately. People introduced themselves. They called me Bella. I corrected them.

Pretty soon it was time for lunch, which Jessica also walked me to.

"You're gonna sit by me, right?" she asked.

"Oh, sure, if you want,"

"Of course I want, silly, we're friends,"

Huh. Friends.

I forced another smile. Jessica was nice enough, but I couldn't force myself to really like her that much. Even though she was helpful, something seemed fake about her.

We got our food and sat down at a table in the center of the cafeteria with a whole bunch of people in our grade, including Mike. It didn't escape my notice that Jessica blushed when Mike sat down next to her. She wasn't over him. I wondered why they broke up.

That thought didn't last long, though, as I was distracted by the people who were now coming into the cafeteria. There was five of them. First came a beautiful blonde girl, holding hands with a huge bear of a guy. Then came a small pixie like girl with spiky hair, holding hands with a blonde guy who looked to be in pain. Then came perhaps the most godlike of them all, a bronze haired guy.

I didn't know why they captivated me so much. Maybe it was how they were all so beautiful. So different than anyone else I had ever seen before. They all looked so different, and yet there was something so similar to them all.

Jessica must have noticed me starring because she tapped me on the shoulder, stiffling a giggle.

"You noticed the Cullen's, huh?" stiffling another giggle.

"Who are they?" I whispered.

"The blonde one is Rosalie, and that's her boyfriend Emmett," she said pointed to the big guy, "Then the little girl is Alice and the blonde guy next to her is her boyfriend, Jasper. The other one is Edward. Edward Cullen," the one called Edward looked up at us then, almost like we had said his name. Which Jessica had, but he couldn't of possibly heard that.

He starred for a minute with a puzzled look on his face. I blushed and looked down.

"Uh, Bella? Don't you have a boyfriend?" she said with another stupid giggle.

"Of course I do!" I started blushing furiously. I obviously wasn't looking because I liked him, but anyone would have the same reaction I would to them.

"Well, it doesn't matter anyways. Edward doesn't date," she said it in a way that made me wonder when he rejected her.

I glanced at the Cullen's table a few more time and everytime I did, Edward was looking in my direction. Could he really be starring at me? No, of course he wasn't.

Lunch passed quickly, and soon it was time to go to Biology. Jessica and Mike both walked with me. Mike had this class with me so he offered to walk me, but Jessica said she would go to. I think she just didn't want Mike to walk me. Like I was interested in him. Ha.

Once I handed the biology teacher my slip, he pointed me to the only empty seat in the class, which was by, of course, Edward Cullen.

It's not a big deal, Bella. He's just a human. No different than you. Nothing to be intimidated about. I told myself.

I looked at him before I sat down. He was gripping the table and his eyes were coal black and filled with hate. They hadn't been that color earlier? What was his problem? He looked up at me then, and his hate filled expression got even more furious, and it all seemed to be directed to me. What had I done to the guy?

The whole entire period, he never relaxed his rigid position of grip on the table. I was afraid to look at him though, because I could still feel his eyes on me. I didn't want to see those hate filled black eyes glaring at me.

As soon as the bell rang, he was out of the classroom. Almost too fast, it seemed. I gathered my stuff up and started towards the main office. When I got in there, Edward Cullen was already in there. He didn't turn as I opened the door. His velvety voice seemed strained. I listened to hear him asking Mrs. Cope to change his schedule to some other Biology period.

That couldn't be because of me, could it? Something had to have happened for him to act like that before I got in there. He couldn't hate a stranger that much, could he? For some reason, I thought he could.

As he turned to walk out, he saw me and his vision turned vicious again. He walked past me, glaring the whole time. I shivered.

I handed Mrs. Cope the slip and she asked how my day was.

"Fine," I lied. I thought it wouldn't be a lie, if Edward Cullen didn't exist.

I got home and started on supper. Jacob got there not long after. He let himself in and came up behind me in the kitchen, startling me. He hugged me from behind and kissed me on my neck.

"How was your day?" he asked me.

"I don't want to talk about it right now," I growled.

"That bad, huh?" he said, frowning.

"I said I don't want to talk about it," I snapped.

"Fine, Fine," he put his hands up in surrender then smiled. "Can I talk about how much I missed you?"

"Yes, that is allowable," I told him.

"Lots and lots," he grinned pulling me to the couch where he sat down and brought me down on his lap.

With Jacob holding me, I forgot all about Edward Cullen and the fact that I had to face school again tomorrow.

In his arms, everything was perfect, and I wanted to stay there just like this for the rest of my life.
