A/N: Like I said in the summary. No crazy bloodlust thing for Edward in this story just to complicated. Hope you enjoy it, my longest chapter ever!
Disclaimer: I do not own anything in this chapter except for Adriana, Tyson, and the snobby child care receptionist. Whoo!

First Day of School
UGH! First day of school. I regret it now that's it's come around. Yet, here I am, Adriana sitting on my bed watching happily as I yelled at my clothes when they didn't match. I need to start setting things out the night before. Finally, I ended up with dark jeans, a navy blue Hollister shirt, a white jacket that had the small Hollister bird in the corner, and then my converse. I wouldn't have clothes like that, except Renee bought everything.
If it were my choice I would have tee shirts, jeans, and sweat pants. Along with some heavy duty jacket that was so thick I couldn't fit through doors, although with the weather like this, I might still be cold after that. This would take some getting used to. At least Adriana seemed to like it here. "What do you think Adriana?" I asked twirling. She responded by clapping. She never really talked. She can, but just finds it unnecessary, I just she assumes if she can show people how she feels, why talk?
When people ask her why she doesn't talk is actually the only time she ever talks. I guess she couldn't find a way to express it. Except she tells everyone the say thing. "Momma say, 'axsons speak owder den words'" she tells absolutely everyone the same thing. She talks to me briefly sometimes to get me attention or if I don't understand her but that's only when other people aren't around.
I looked at the clock. Shitonke mushrooms! I need to be at school in fifteen minutes. I picked up Adriana and then slung my new backpack over my shoulder. I hurried how to the door almost tripping on the boxes I had yet to unpack. I grabbed my directions to school off the counter on my way out. I quickly belted in Adriana and ran around the front of the truck and yanked on the door of the truck. Stupid door! I yanked harder except this time it opened easily which made me fall to the floor. Hate. That. Door. I quickly yanked myself back up and jumped in the car. I turned the key in the ignition but it wouldn't start. Oh gosh! This could take a while.
On the third try it roared to life, which scared me a bit. I backed my truck and pressed down on the gas, hard. It noisily accelerated. That earned me a stare from all the innocent bystanders who were now in risk of my truck blowing up and flying shards hitting them. I quickly drove across the street and brought Adriana into the childcare center. "Name?" asked the annoyed lady behind the evil counter that blocked you from entering.
"Swan" I replied quickly. She took her time looking me up.
"Adriana?" she asked.
"Yes" I told her exasperated. She typed with one finger.
"What's today's date?"
"I don't know, look in the corner of you screen!" I shot back.
"Oh," she mouthed, seeing it. "Kay, you can open up that gate and let her in." she told me. I pushed it open, it was easy seeing as it was only held closed with magnets. I set Adriana down and she happily ran off to join the other kids. Finally! I jogged back out to my car nearly slipping twice. This time I made sure to use the passenger door and crawl over the seat. This time it started one my first try. I looked at my map, I had a ten minute drive to school still. I was going to be late.
I pulled into the school parking lot and looked around. It was clear of people. Shoot! I looked on the map of the school and started to find my way to the front office. I was going to have to scrapbook all of theses maps. I reached to front office and pulled the door open and was flooded with warm air. I stepped inside and took a deep breath then stepped up the front desk. "You must be Isabella Swan." said the overly cheerful receptionist.
"Bella." I corrected her. She pulled out a file with my name on it. She looked through it.
"You have a daughter?" she asked stopping to look at one of the papers.
"Yes," I told her. I slid a paper one the counter between us.
"Okay, well I just need you to sign this last paper," she said pointing to a spot on the paper and giving me a pen. I quickly signed it. She took it and put out a schedule. "Your first class will be in building 'C'." she said circling a building on the map above my schedule. She arrowed it to first period English. "From there I'm sure someone will be very willing to show you your way around." she flipped the paper over. "You need each of your teachers to sign one of these boxes and then bring it back to me at the end of the day" I nodded and smiled, took at paper and left.
The school wasn't that big but it was large enough for me to get lost in. After a little while though, I found my class. I opened the door to a teacher lecturing the class on something I was completely clueless about. He sighed and looked at me. "Your late" he snapped.
" Yeah, I know" I replied looking down to hide my blush. I walked up and placed my paper on his desk. He unwillingly signed it and pointed to a seat. I went to the seat with my head down so no one would see my face, I most likely looked like a tomato. The guy next to me smiled. I replied by nodding. I'm turning into Adriana.
I learned that the boys name was Tyson and to put it kindly, he was,…uh…weird. Or, at least that's one way of putting it. There was a girl in that class that offered to walk me to my next class, coincidently we had the same one. Her name was Angela, she seemed nice. I decided not to tell anyone about Adriana. Maybe once I knew I could trust them. Most people you tell right away think you're a s*** before I can even explain what happened to them.
I met with Angela for lunch. Alright three more periods after this then I can get Adriana and go home, I thought as we walked into the cafeteria. The food they served looked repulsive. As soon as we sat down I was bombarded by questions from the other people at the table. "Guys! Calm down! You're going to over whelm her." Angela yelled. They all quieted down immediately. "Let's take his slowly," she said, "Bella, his is Jessica, Mike, Lauren, Tyler, and Eric." She gestured to each one in turn. "Now, do I need to continue to treat you like two year olds or can we do this rationally and hopefully quietly?" she asked. They all nodded. Angela obviously held the group together.
"Sorry, about that. It's just because your new. I hate treating them like that but sometimes it just gets to crazy." she whispered apologetically.
"It's fine" I laughed. Everyone continued with their conversations from before except for the one that I'm pretty sure is named Jessica. She asked me simple questions, like why I moved to Forks (which I didn't lie, I just didn't tell the entire truth), how I like it here, what I miss about Phoenix, and so on. That's when I saw him. He was utterly gorgeous. He had messy bronze hair and topaz eyes. I looked around his table. I saw Emmett among the people sitting there. I smiled at that. He didn't tell me he had siblings. "Hey Angela?" I asked.
"Huh?"
"Who are they?" I nodded towards Emmett's table.
"That's Edward Cullen at the end and his brother is Emmet- the big one- and his sister is Alice-the small on with spiky hair." she said.
"Yeah, I know Emmett," I told her.
"How?" she sounded amazed.
"It's sorta a long story, what about the others?" I asked.
"Alright, so the blonde girl is Rosalie Hale and her twin brother is the other blonde, Jasper. They were all adopted by Carlisle and Esme Cullen. Carlisle is one of the best doctors in Forks and Esme stays at home." she informed me.
"Common" she said, pulling on my arm to get up.
"I'm coming, I'm coming, calm down!" she might yank my arm right off if I don't get up soon. As soon as I was up she was dragging my to the Cullen/Hale table.
"Hey, sorry to bother you guys at lunch, but Bella's new and she wanted to meet you" Angela said. I gave her one of those 'what-the-hell!' looks.
"Hey, Bella! Nice to see you again." Emmett said. "How's…" I cut him off with a glare. I hope he hasn't told his family about Adriana. "life treating you?" He asked hesitantly. Much better! I smiled to thank him then answered anyway for everyone else's benefit, even though that wasn't the intentioned question. "Great" I said. Only Emmett knew that I was actually talking about Adriana.
\
"That's good" he responded.
"Hi Bella, I'm Alice" said the girl classified as the one with spiky hair. I smiled. I like her.
"Hey Alice," I said. She came up and hugged me. Edward and Rosalie rolled their eyes.
"Ooh," she said looking at my outfit, " we should go shopping sometime" I change my mind. I hide from this girl. She went and sat down after that. Edward looked at me. He put out his hand.
"Hi, I'm Edward. Nice to meet you" he said. I blushed. I took his hand and shook it though. He chuckled. Apparently people find that the fact that I easily get embarrassed and/or flattered. Once he let go Jasper smiled me and nodded. "Hello Bella" he said.
"Hi" I responded. They all looked at Rosalie. She rolled her eyes and looked away.
"I apologize for her behavior, she just gets b****y at school." Edward said. Rosalie glared at him. Everyone at the table and me excluding Rosalie tried to hold back laughter. I wondered why Angela wasn't laughing and I realized she wasn't there. When did she leave? The bell rang knocking me out of my trance. I ran to my chair to get my backpack off the back of it when I slipped. I cold hand caught my arm. "Careful now" he laughed. I thanked him and walked the rest of the way.
I looked at my schedule. I had Biology next. I asked a passing student which building was for biology he pointed it out without saying anything and left. Nice boy. I made my way over there. When I entered the room everyone was in there seats but the teacher wasn't there. Edward smiled when he saw me. The seat next to him was the only open seat. Part of me wanted to jump for joy but the other part of me was telling me to not get to trustworthy of him. I ignored both and went to go sit in my seat. The teacher came in right after, hauling a projector. Everyone groaned like we were in middle school again.
' I thought this was college' I wrote on a paper and slid to Edward. 'Says the one secretly passing notes' he writes back and slides me the paper. I laugh at this. 'So who's together in your family.' I write him in response. 'Alice and Jasper, Emmett and Rosalie' he passed back the paper. What about him? 'And you?' I scribble. He reads it over my shoulder and instead writes on it without passing it. 'No, I've never found anyone that I've been interested in' Is he serious?! No one! I look at him with a shocked face and turn back to the paper. 'Are you kidding? No one?' I wrote stunned. 'Not until this year when this one girl caught my eye' he wrote back to me. 'Who???" I jotted. He took the paper from my and began writing. He passed it back. I looked at it, I couldn't believe what I read.
