The weekend went by fast but it was alot of fun. Knowing that the vampire that haunted my past was gone made me feel alot better. Also knowing that Edward, Alice, Jasper, and everyone trust me with their secret helped too. This year I wasn't the one being alone all the time. I had friends, pretty cool one's too. Except when you put Alice with a credit card. Then it's the mall until I can't stand.

On Monday though, another surprise hit me.

I got up easier for school. I looked forward to it. I mean I had a reason to be there. I got up, got dressed, brushed my hair and put it up, and brushed my teeth. I slid down the stair railing and landed with aperfect.

"I give that a 7 and 1/2." Summer said.

"7 and 1/2? That was so at least a 9 and 1/2 or even 10."

"Sorry. Kori did a back flip down the stairs and laned witha perfect."

"Ya that wins." I walked into the kitchen. "Alright if you're getting a ride then hurry your butts into the car now!" Then I went outside and got in the drivers seat. Next thing I know, Chloe's in the front seat and Katrina, Kori, and Summer are in the back. "You guys are fast."

"Just get to driving." Kori said.

"Fine!" Then I drove off. Man I can't wait until Chloe get's her car. Then I can leave when I want.

I park the car next to Bella, then next to Bella, was the Cullens. No we did not plan that.

"Hey guys." I said getting out of the car.

"So this is what the great Nikki drives?"

"Hey I have just enough room to fit everyone in it. I don't what I'm going to do when Taylor gets here, and no I'm letting my friends bye me a car!"

"Hey we're just being nice." Edward said.

"No need to get snappy." Jasper said. Both of us laughed.

"Well my first period got switched so I'll see you guys at lunch."

"Alright." Alice said. Then I walked off.

I didn't know the schoot very well obivously and I didn't want to be late. As it turns out it wasn't hard finding the room at all. It was like two doors down from my old class. I ended up being really early. There was only one other person. It was boy and he was pretty tall, tan, and his black hair was pretty long for a guy. Not saying guys can't have long hair. I mean it works for this guy. I looked over at the teacher, writing somthing on the board. He looked at me and put the chalk down.

"Ah you must be Nichole. You can sit over there." He said before walking out of the room. I went over and sat at the seat he pointed to. It was the one next to the boy. I set down my bag and sat down. I took out a bottle of water and took a drink.

"Are you new here?" The boy asked. I set the bottle down on the table.

"Ya. I started Friday. You?"

"I've been here for a week. I'm kind of new. I'm Jacob by the way but you can call me Jake."

"Nikki." He smiled and laughed a little. I smiled back.

"So where'd you move from?"

"Johnston up north."

"How do your parents like it here?"

"It's just my mom. She's not home much though, so it's just me and my sisters."

"Ah. What happened to your dad?"

"He umm he began having some mental issues, after somthing happened to him, so my parents split up because my mom didn't want us around him." I took a deep breathe, "My brother still lives with him though."

"Wow. What happened to him."

"My family doesn't like to talk about. Mostly me."

"Ah I get it."

"What about you?"

"I live with my dad."

"That's it?"

"Ya. I'm normally in the garage though, and my dad normally goes to Charlies."

"So what you're all alone in your garage? Don't you having any friends?"

"Ya I got friends, they come around every now and then. They go to school on the reservation so I don't see as often."

"You live on the reservation? I thought you had to go to school there?"

"I wanted to get out. So I transfered here."

"Ah. I see."

"So how you llike Forks?"

"It's nice. Could use better weather but, I like the forests."

"You should come to La Push sometime, and see the beaches."

"There are beaches around here?"

"Ya. They're really nice too. I could show you some time."

"That'd be great."

"How about this weekend? Better go while it's still summer."

"Sure why not."

"Cool." He wrote something down and slid it over. "Give me a call Saturday when you're ready and I'll pick you up."

"Alright." I took the paper with Jake's number on it. Then the bell rang and it didn't take long for the seats to fill up.

"Ok class take your seats, and pass up the assignment." The teacher said as he walked in the room.
