(BPOV)

As I am driving down the long, winding roads to Forks High School, I cannot help but to wonder what my first day will be like. Will any of the students talk to me? What will the teachers be like? What will happen if I get lost?

A run through of what happened my last first day quickly appeared into my mind. I was sitting in the staircase between the basement and the first floor. Curled up in a ball, crying. I had no friends to come and look for me. I did not know anyone! Many hours passed, counting the ringing of the bells, until finally, the last one rang for everyone to leave this hellish place.

I flashed back into reality just at the right second so I can make the turn into the school parking lot. People are starring as I get out of my truck. I automatically start walking toward the school building with my head down to shield my face with my hair. Luckily, I was able to make to the main office, get my schedule and supplies, and walk to my first period.

As I walked into the classroom, I noticed there were already a few people there. Nevertheless, they looked like some of those nerds who were always early for class. I didn't want to say anything in case they would think that I would want to sit with them so I just kept walking until I came upon a large desk, cluttered with papers.

"Yes, Bella Swan, so nice to meet you!" exclaimed the tired-eyed teacher as I gave him my admission slip. "Since you are so early, you may sit anywhere."

I slowly turned around to see that a few more people had walked in while I had had my back turned. I walked over to on of the middle seats and unpacked my things. I heard footsteps behind me, although they were extremely soft, I still heard them.

"Hi! My name is Victoria. Are you new here?" a tall, red-haired girl said.

"Yes, I am. I'm Bella."

"Oh, well I've heard that you're the chief's daughter! Is that right?

"Uh-huh! Wow, I'm surprised that got around so quick." I said questionably.

"Yes, you must have forgotten that this is a small town. But don't worry, you'll get used to it. Here let me see your schedule, Ill see how many classes we have together," Victoria said smiling. I handed her a little slip of paper out of my pocket. She unfolded it and skimmed over it.

"Um, Bella this is a note from your mom! Awe! Ur mom sounds like a nice lady." she said through closed lips trying to keep from laughing.

"Oh, shoot. I thought I threw that away! Oh well. Here I'll take that back." I lied and grabbed the note. My mother had actually written me a note and put it in my pockets. What am I 5?

"Here you go," I said as I realized my schedule was sitting right in front of me.

"Wow! We have most of our classes together." she handed me back my schedule.

"Well, that's a good thing, because I could barely find this class!" I said laughing.

"Yeah! I can give you a heads up on all the crazy people and teachers," she proclaimed, looking at our teacher.

"Well thank you, Victoria!"

And that was how I made my first friend here.
