AN: Finally, here is the lunchroom crowd! So many fanfic authors depict Bella's innocent human friends as completely brainless, evil or horny and it has disastrous results!
Disclaimer: I own nothing of literary merit!
Today was a rare sunny day in Forks so, much to her dismay, Bella went to school with only her human friends for company, given her boyfriend and his family's annoying tendency to sparkle quite obviously in the sun. However, Bella wasn't expecting the day to be too miserable, she did have human friends with whom she was quite close. Her expectations for a normal day were completely abandoned when she arrived at her lunch table.
When Bella arrived at lunch she immediately noticed that something was strange. Instead of innocent admiration, Mike was intensely staring at her with lust filled eyes. Blushing she took her seat and became increasingly unnerved when Mike reached under the table and stroked her leg.
"Uh- Mike! What exactly are you doing?" she asked, while pulling her leg a safe distance from his fingers.
"Don't you know Bella? I love you, we belong together and I WILL have you!" He replied intensely.
"Wha- Mike? Are you feeling alright?" Bella questioned thoroughly confused.
"I'm feeling wonderful sitting here in your glorious presence." He answered.
"Mike where is this all coming from? You've seemed to accept our friendship for a while now. I'm in a relationship with Edward. Do you need to see the nurse?" Bella asked now becoming very concerned for her friend. She then turned her attention to Jessica to ask her if she knew what was going on but the words caught in her throat and her jaw fell slack.
"J-Jessica, you look nice today?" Bella said weakly as she looked over Jessica's overly made up face and skimpily dressed body. She was so distracted with Mike's strangely renewed and intensified persistence to pursue her that she didn't even notice Jessica, or anyone else at the table for that matter.
"Like, thanks Bella! I like bought new clothes like when I went to like Port Angeles yesterday! Don't I look totally hot? I'm like such a whore!" Jess said giggling.
"Oh my god, what is going on with you guys today? Jessica you're smarter than I am, but for some reason you seem to have gotten substantially less intelligent over night!" Bella said. As a last resort she turned to Lauren, as Angela had not yet arrived.
"Lauren do you know what's going on?"
"Uh yeah, what's going on is that you are a stupid ugly bitch that should go jump off a cliff. Now stop talking to me before I vomit", Lauren said harshly. Bella flinched at the harsh insults but her confusion overpowered her. Lauren had never liked her and sure, she talked behind her back but she never was out right malicious to her face and in front of people like that.
Thankfully, Angela arrived to see Mike fervently writing a love note to Bella, Jessica making out with some random freshmen and Lauren glaring at Bella while flicking peas at her. She gave a shocked Bella an understanding smile and sat down next to her.
"More fan fiction clichés", Angela whispered.
"Ugh, not again"
