I didn't sleep all night so I didn't need my alarm to go off to wake me up. Charlie was at work already. I got dressed, ate, and gathered my things, but still had time to spare. I decided to go to school early and check out campus.

When I started my truck the noise from the engine made me jump. As I found my way to the high school, which wasn't hard in this small town, I noticed there was a few things I liked. Their diner looked decent, and there were some ok clothing stores. I bet most people go out of town to buy clothes.

When I arrived I found everyone laughing at my truck, without noticing me. I parked in front of the office for a minute and went in. "Hello?"

"Yes, you must be Isabella Swan. Here's your schedule, good luck." She rushed so fast I had no time to tell her I prefer Bella.

I got back in my truck and found a better parking spot next to a shiny silver Volvo. Stupid, shiny Volvo.

When first period started my teacher made me introduce myself. "Please welcome Isabella Swan, the new girl."

"Hi I'm Bella Swan. Umm…… I'm from Arizona, and yes I know I'm not tan." People laughed at that hopefully for a good reason. When I sat a girl introduced herself as Jessica, she was a talker. Glad I had mad skills in Mhm and Oh cool department.

The first three periods went by fast. Then came lunch. I got pizza and sat with Jessica, Angela, and some freak named Mike. Mental note: Call Jacob and see how school is on the reservation.

Five god-like people walked in while I had half my pizza in my mouth ready to bite. "Who are they?" Jessica didn't even need to turn around to know who I was talking about.

"Their Cullen's, Dr. and Mrs. Cullen's foster kids. The blonde girl is Rosalie she is with Emmett the big, scary one. The small one is Alice she is with the one that looks like he's in pain, Jasper." There was one she left out.

"And him?" I asked impatient.

"That's Edward Cullen; apparently everyone in school is not good enough for him." Sounds like she has a case of sour grapes.

Just as I glanced up at Edward he looked right at me smiling. Being brave I waved him to come to our table. "Can't right now, maybe see you later." He mouthed these words while his brothers tried to snap him out of staring.

He was gorgeous. Bronze hair, emerald eyes, his features would stun you.

I got to seventh period and saw him sitting next to the only available seat in biology. Mr. Banner gave me a folder and directed me to sit next to Edward, my new partner.

"Hi. Bella is it?" How did he know that?

"Um, yea. Your Edward right?" Does that make me look stalker-ish?

"Yea. So why did you move here, if you don't mind my asking?"

"I don't mind but would rather not touch the subject." I fought back tears brought on by thinking of mom.

"Sorry I can see I brought on sadness. Do you have a cell phone?" His eyes dazzled me and I forgot to reply until my phone vibrated.

"Yes, I do, why?" Oh, duh he wanted my number.

"Just thought maybe we could text sometime."

"Let my check my text message first then we can swap phones." It was from Jessica. It said:

To: Bella

From: Jessica

I see your talking to Edward. What about? 3 Do you like him? 3

I wrote back under the table:

To: Jessica

From: Bella

Just small talk like why I moved here. And none of your business. :P

Edward noticed my anger and asked. "What was that about?"

"Nothing, just a small annoyance."
