This chapter is in Caylee's point of view. And fyi, I don't own Eric, Angela, Tyler, Mike, Jessica, or Mr. Molina, they are all real characters from the movie. Enjoy :)
I was sleeping in class when I felt someone poke me. I slowly woke up and saw Eric standing there with a grin on his face.
"What..?" I asked slightly annoyed, while he was standing there with a huge grin plastered on his face. It kind of creeped me out.
"You know the bell rang, like two minutes ago." He stated, while laughing.
"Eh, whatever. Thanks for waking me up." I told him as I grabbed my backpack and placed it on my right shoulder, while walking out of Geometry with him.
We made our way to the cafeteria to grab our lunches. Eric went to stand with Mike, while I stood by myself. While in line, I saw a girl that I recognized with long black hair. As she turned and grabbed an apple from the fruit section of the line, I realized it was Melissa, the girl who I had given a tour around the school to this morning.
"Hey!" I happily greeted her. I saw her look around confused. After looking every direction, except mine, she finally turned around and saw me.
"Hey." She replied, as I saw the corners of her mouth turn slightly into a smile.
"Do you have anywhere to sit for lunch?" I asked her.
"Uhhh, umm. No, not really." She told me after a long pause.
"Oh, that's fine. You can sit with me if you want to." I told Melissa.
"Alright, thanks."
We made small talk through the rest of the line. I learned that she had a boyfriend back at home, but had to break up with him due to her moving. I also learned that she played guitar, like me.
Melissa and I finally paid for our lunches, and she followed me to my usual table. As we reached it, I placed my tray on the table, and went to the table that was next to us and grabbed another chair, for Melissa to sit on. We both sat down.
"Hey guys!" I greeted them as I sat down. They all looked at me, and then looked directly at Melissa. "Oh yeah, guys, this is Melissa. Melissa, this is Jessica," I gestured towards the burnette girl, who was texting. She looked up and said hi. "This is Angela," I pointed to her, who seemed to be working on homework. She paused and welcomed her. "And this," I said, "is Mike, Tyler, and Eric." I told her, while pointed over to each boy individually. They were all playing with their food.
"Uhhh, what the hell are they doing?" She asked.
"That, my friend, is how they usually act. I'm afraid that if you want to be friends with us, that's something that you are gonna have to get used to." I smiled while laughing.
"Great…" She sarcastically replied, while she joined in laughing with me.
We all made small talk until lunch ended. It seemed that everyone got along. Which was good. I found out that Melissa had Biology with me next, which was great, and English with Jessica and me after that.
When Melissa and I entered the classroom, she went up to the teacher and give him her papers, to ensure that she was in that class.
"Welcome, I'm Mr. Molina." He told her. "You can sit anywhere that you want, that is available."
"Okay thanks." She replied while walking through the students in their seats, looking for an empty spot. She spotted me, and saw that their was an empty seat next to me. She seemed relieved as she walked over, dropped her backpack and sat next to me at the lab station, as the final bell rang.
"So, class, we have a new st-" Mr. Molina began, as someone walked through the classroom and gave him a slip. He walked up to a lab station and sat down. "As, I was saying, we have a new student. Please, welcome Melissa Anderson, from Boston." They all turned and stared at her.
"…Hey…" she told them, while looking back at them awkwardly. They all turned away and continued with what they were doing before. Mr. Molina began talking again about a class field trip that was coming up. "Well that was awkward…" she assured me.
"I bet." I slightly laughed at her.
"So, who's that?" She asked while pointing to the guy who had walked in a few moments before.
"That?" I asked her while gesturing towards the boy, who was sitting a few rows up. She nodded. "That, is Edward Cullen. He is considered 'gorgeous', as I have been told. He is sort of mysterious. And he talks to like no one, except his siblings. So, nobody really knows anything about him. But it's also not like they have tried either, considering he always looks like he is gonna punch the shit out of someone. All I know is that he shows up to school, sometimes. Like rarely. But anyways, if you want to get to know him or something, good luck." I told her while laughing.
"Oh." I replied quietly. He looked back at us, and quickly turned around, once he noticed that we were looking back at him. "Did he just look at us?" She asked while freaking out.
"Yep, that was weird." I laughed. "But anyways, I was wondering if you wanted to come over after school…?" I hoped she said yes, she seems pretty legit.
"Sure," She smiled.
"Alright." I replied while smiling back.
The rest of the period we quietly talked about things. She asked me about myself, and I learned more about her.
Before I new it, the day was over.
"So, how did you get to school?" I asked her while slowly walking down the hallway.
"Oh, I took my bike." She told me.
"Alright, well if you want, I can put your bike in the back of my car, and we can go to my place?" I suggested.
"K, that sounds fine."
We got her bike, put it in the back of my car, got into the car, and zoomed off in the directions towards my house.
