My First Day. It was somewhat the same as my first day in school in Forks, yet it was also completely different. For starters I didn't get too many stares. Most people were busy talking to their friends or were busy doing something that has no relevance to my life to stare at me. I went to the front desk.
"Hello, my name is Renesmee Cullen. I'm a transfered Students from Forks." The woman at the front desk had beady eyes, and glanced at me before typing down what I thought was my name. She got out my room key.
"Room 721. On the third floor, enjoy your year," Her voice sounded like she had a cold which I doubted with the weather this hot. She muttered something but I didn't concentrate hard enough to know what she said. I was finally here, I was finally away from home. Yet the feeling I knew I should be feeling wasn't there.
I climbed up the stairs, not struggling with my bags a lot but wishing my dad would've helped me bring the bags up. But I knew that would show weakness and I couldn't show that. The third floor, unlike the others, was neat and quiet. A little bit too quiet. I listened carefully for any trace of a heartbeat and I heart two in separate rooms. I looked at the doors. 716, 717, 718...720. There it was. I opened the door and looked at my things from home which were there already. Such as my iPod and my laptop and the picture of my mum, dad and I when I was twelve. I smiled at it and they smiled back, well obviously because we were smiling in the picture but the thought still made me happy. I placed my bags to the side, I would have to unpack later. I checked my watch, 11:55. My first lesson wasn't until 1:30. I went down to the ground floor and headed out the door that said 'To common grounds'. The place was big and open but also packed. I looked around and saw all the tables were taken by groups I would not like to join. I sat on the desk and waited for someone to come and take my order.
"What would you like?" A girl talked behind the counter. She had dark brown hair which could be mistaken for black with grey eyes and a lot of goth make-up. If I was a full vampire I would be offended, but I wasn't and so I smiled.
"Umm, I'll have tea please." She raised her eyebrows at me.
"Tea? Are you English or something? You don't sound like your English." Her voice was not too high nor too low, and she had a lot of confidence. I think I might end up liking it here.
"That's a bit stereotypical don't you think." I answered.
"Hmm, I guess you are right. I guess I'll go bring your tea then."
"Thank you." She left the counter shaking her head as she got my drink prepared. I went through my bag and took out my Calc II text book and began reading what I would be learning. Five minutes later I heard the cup being placed on the counter.
"So what brings you to Morganville?"
"Freedom from my parents. They wouldn't send me anywhere bigger unless I show I can manage here so," I moved my hand over me, gesturing the fact that I was here now.
"Wow, parents suck sometimes. M'names Eve. What's yours?"
"Renesmee." She smiled and I smiled back.
"You seem a bit young to be in uni. How old are you?" Not the first time I've heard that before.
"I'm seventeen in a month, but yes It was an advanced transfer."
"Where'd you transfer from?"
"Small town called Forks. You don't seem as Gothic as you dress." I said paying more attention to her outfit. She had a black and purple striped shirt with a skull head in the middle. Her hair was tied back and she seemed an estimate 5 foot 4.
"Yeah well I'll take that as a compliment." I took a sip of my tea, which tasted really good before drinking the whole thing in one go.
"You like it? I don't normally make tea around here. Most people prefer coffee."
"I hate coffee." I check my watch, 12:15. I'd have enough time to get settled in my dorm before class starts.
"I should get going. Got loads of things to unpack."
"Hey do you want help? My shift is ending in five minutes and I know I just met you and everything but..."
"Sure." I interrupted. I heard the chair next to me scrape and I turned my head slightly. The girl had brown hair and eyes. She was quite small but was about an inch taller than Eve.
"Hi Eve."
"Hey Claire. Usual is coming up. Claire this is Renesmee, Renesmee Claire." I turned my head and smiled.
"Hi." I said to her.
"Hi."
"Advanced placement too?"
"Yeah. What subjects you taking?"
"Physics, Chemistry, Calc II and Myths and Legends."
"Seriously? I've got Calc II next."She replied eagerly.
"Me too."
"Urgh this is just not the conversation I pictured you two having." Eve said and went to get whatever it was Claire always ordered. We laughed and Claire and I carried on talking about the similarities we had. For starters we both moved from our parents with an obsessive mum and a strict dad. We also both had secrets we needed to keep, what they were couldn't be discussed, because even if she told me hers, there was no way I was to tell her mine. Not unless I want to die.
The rest of the day went well. We went over the basics in Calc and we did small calculations that I could do in my sleep but I didn't complain. I went to my new clean room. Which reminded me... I dialed my mum's number. She picked up on the first ring.
"Hello honey everything alright?" She rushed.
"Everything is fine mum. I made some good friends." Well only two but it was a start.
"That's great. How are the lessons?"
"A little easy but nothing I can't temporarily handle. Hows dad?"
"He's fine. He went fishing with Charlie and Carlisle. He'll be very upset if you don't call him you know."
"I will mum don't worry. I've got to go now."
"Okay honey you call me if anything's wrong. I love you."
"Love you too. Bye." I hung up and dialed my dad's number. He answered on the fourth ring.
"Hey princess how you doing?"
"Fine daddy. Hows Charlie and Carlisle?"
"Their fine. They send their regards. Hows your first day?"
"It was alright." I wouldn't mention how easy the subjects are. But then again I didn't have to.
"They should get harder in due course." I smiled, this was why I loved my dad. He didn't have to make me say anything.
"Well I should go, I have an early start tomorrow and I gotta get my sleep."
"Alright honey. By the way do you like your room?" It's a bit too big but I didn't want to say that. And if he heard what I thought or not he never made any remark about it.
"It's nice and spaced out. I'll talk to you later. Love you daddy."
"Love you too." I hung up and lay on my bed. This was going to be a long year. My name is Renesmee Carlie Cullen and this is the beginning of a long year.
