APOV:

I quickly walked out of my class and instead of going to my usual spot to meet Jasper I went straight to the parking lot.

After hearing about Edward's little incident, I was actually glad that Jocelyn was around for once. Maybe she wasn't such a waste of space after all.

My eyes scanned the parking lot. I wasn't sure why I was doing this but I just had gut feeling that I should. I usually went with those, so here I was.

I saw Jessica flirting hopelessly with Mike while his eyes were glued to Lauren, who was following Tyler through the parking lot and trying to get his attention by calling his name. Honestly, human's made me laugh sometimes.

Then I saw something that caught my eye. Bella Swan. She was walking through the parking lot, alone- as usual. It was then that I realized I had never seen her car around. I tried to follow her direction but all it led to was the exit. Did she not have a car?

I ran at quick human speed over to her, a little unsure of what to say.

"Hello, Bella," I greeted her.

She looked around her and then back at me. It broke my heart. She instinctively thought I would be talking to someone else.

"Hi," She responded in a confused tone.

"How are you?" I asked as I shifted my books in my hand.

"Good, I guess," She responded, still confused.

"Do you have a ride home?" I searched the parking lot again but still nothing new.

"I walk home," She told me in a quiet voice. It was very pretty for a human. Her voice was soft, just like everything about her.

I frowned. That was no good.

"Do you want a ride home?" I offered. The rest of them could ride in Edward's Volvo while I drove Bella home in Rosalie's Mercedes. I guess Rosalie would just have to deal.

She shook her head. "No thanks, I don't want to be a bother."

"You wouldn't be a bother. Just wait right here while I go put my books away." And explain this to my family, I added to myself.

They definitely wouldn't be happy with me hanging out with a human, especially Rose. And we were using her car. It was almost laughable, almost- until I had to deal with her fury. If only she knew how lonely Bella was. Maybe if she had ever had to deal with that she wouldn't be in this position.

I didn't wait for her answer before walking back in the direction of the school.

"You guys have to take Edward's Volvo." I told them as soon as I saw them.

It was Rosalie, Emmett, Jasper and Jocelyn all sitting there. They all gave me strange looks.

"Why?" Rosalie finally asked, breaking the silence.

"I'm giving the new girl a ride home." I told them cheerfully. It's not like they could stop me.

"In my car?!" Rosalie fumed.

I nodded. Emmett barely restrained Rosalie before she could slap me. She struggled pointlessly against Emmett's iron hold.

"She doesn't have a car and I'm giving her a ride home. Don't worry Rose; I'll wash your car so thoroughly you won't even know she was in it." I answered the question before she could ask it.

She looked skeptical but let me go anyways.

"See you guys at the house!" I called happily.

I practically skipped to the parking lot only to see it basically empty, no Bella in sight. I quickly hopped into my car and drove out. I took the first road- since the only vision I could get of Bella was her dead.

Thankfully, I could see the figure of a stout girl in the distance and I revved the engine.

"Why didn't you wait for me?" I whined after I rolled down the window.

Bella looked apologetic and a crease in her forehead from frowning. "Sorry." She whispered.

"It's alright. Here, get in." I reached across the passenger seat and opened the door for her.

She carefully climbed in, as if she were afraid of me. Although, that isn't exactly irrational. She has every reason to be afraid of me, but I felt as though I could help her, that she needed me.

"Which way?" I asked when we came to a stop light.

"Go left," She said quietly.

We kept on that road for a while. The silence was overbearing. I could tell she felt uncomfortable.

"Why are you doing this?" She asked in a mystified voice.

"Because you looked like you could use a friend." I beamed at her.

Her eyes went wide and her mouth had a comical 'O' shape to it. "You want to be my friend?"

"Of course I do. Why wouldn't I?" I was almost insulted, strangely.

"Well…look at you. You're so…" She paused.

"So… what?"

"Perfect," She sighed sadly.

"Bella, I'm far from perfect." I informed her.

"Compared to me, at least- you are. You don't want to be my friend. I've got nothing to offer." She sounded so unbelievably sad. It didn't take Jasper's power to know she was hurting deeply.

"All I want is your friendship, Bella. Please, give it a try?" I pleaded.

She nodded.

"Yippee!" I squealed.

A small smile tugged on the corner of her lips. I think it was the first time she'd even come that close to smiling I'd ever seen, probably the first time in a while.

"Turn right and then make an immediate left." She told me.

I obeyed and we were down a quaint little road with houses every once in a while.

The silence was comfortable. And I, at least, was appeased. I would make her happy or die trying. Okay, maybe that was a little melodramatic. But I would try extremely, extremely hard.

BPOV:

After Alice dropped me off, I did my daily chores in a daze. Sometimes I would have to sit down it would astound me so much.

It just didn't make sense, to be honest. Why in the world would someone like her want to be friends with someone like me? She was beautiful, talented, and smart. She was going somewhere. All I could do was cook meals fit for a drunkard and barely make a B average. I wasn't fun to be with but Alice seemed to have a personality that just popped.

No, it doesn't make sense, I agreed with myself.

The pasta was just finished cooking when Charlie got home. He took one disgusted look at me and spat at me.

"Finish and go to bed," He growled before walking into the freshly cleaned living room with a beer can.

I sniffled. Holding back tears, I did as I was told. For once in too long to remember, Charlie didn't come back up for me. Today had to be the best day I've had in too long to remember.

I couldn't tell you why she felt that way,
She felt it everyday.
And I couldn't help her,
I just watched her make the same mistakes again.

I don't own anything. :[ Here's another chapter for you, two in one day. I'm beastly. Ha. But you won't get another one until Monday or Tuesday because I'm going to Destin with my BFFL! Nobody's Home by Avril Lavigne.
