A/N: i had a lot of people tell me this was rushed so i decided to fix it because after i reread it it sounded bad so...i had to add some things because if you read chapter 5 it wouldn't exactly make sence...that or you would think Bella is a complete idiot for being so oblivious!

Chapter 4 BPOV

2 years later…

I boarded the plane before taking one last look at the sun; I sighed miserably and closed my eyes waiting for the plane to take me to my new home. But I'm getting ahead of myself I should start from the beginning.

My name is Isabella Marie Swan, Bella if you will. You see my mother Renee was married to my father Charlie. It lasted about two years before my mother escaped with me to Phoenix Arizona, when I was still a baby. Since then I've been living happily with in Phoenix, but everything changed two years ago. My mother was dating a baseball player named Phil Dwyer. For the time I was happy for her, I could see that they honestly loved each other. Phil and I on the other hand didn't speak much, I had a feeling he didn't like me very much, but that was okay so long as my mother was happy. Finally he proposed, my mother was ecstatic and I was very happy for her and the wedding went without a hitch. After the wedding when Phil moved in that's when everything changed for me. It turns out that I was right Phil didn't like me, let me rephrase that he hated me; he thought I was worthless and getting in between him and Renee. He would yell at me when Renee was not around and occasionally he would slap me, but it never got any worse than that. I never told Renee about him, I saw how happy he made her and I didn't have the heart to destroy her perfect world. So to get away from it and to spend less time at home I got involved in sports at school-which is very ironic considering how clumsy I am. I alternated between basketball and swim. Things started to get better, Phil didn't yell as often, I guess he thought I was finally doing something useful with myself, I became lot stronger and faster however I was still a little clumsy, but Phil still thought I was driving a wedge between them so I decided to move with my father in Forks Washington. They would both be a lot happier if I took myself out of the picture. So we have come full circle.

Renee tried to convince me it wasn't necessary but my mind was made up. My father Charlie eagerly agreed to take me in and Phil was just as happy that I was leaving though he tried to hide it.

The plane finally landed at Port Angeles. I got my luggage and started to walk around looking for Charlie.

"Bella is that you?!"

I turned around to see Charlie walking up to me.

"Yeah Ch-dad it's me," I said as he took my bags and gave me an awkward hug.

"It's great to see you Bells, you've grown," he said as he put my bags into the trunk of his cruiser. Did I forget to tell you my dad is the police chief of Forks?

The ride to Forks was awkward after a failed attempt at small talk by Charlie. When we arrived at the house there was this great beast of a truck in the dive way.

"Dad what's that?" I asked as soon as I got out of the cruiser.

"Oh, well that's your truck," he said seeming embarrassed. "I got it from Billy Black down at the La Push reservation, remember him?" Billy Black? I seem to slightly remember him.

I looked back at the trunk. It was faded red and a little rusty but honestly I loved it. It looked very sturdy, something that a person like me needs, something that probably ate Italian sports cars for breakfast. I loved it.

"It's great dad I love it," I said a little awkwardly, Charlie turned pinker, we both weren't good with expressing are feelings.

The rest of the day I just spent unpacking my things in my new or I guess old room. Charlie didn't hover over me and that was good, that way he couldn't see when the tears started to form. I missed Phoenix so much, I missed the sun, the dried up half dead plants, it's way to green here for my liking, but most of all I miss Renee. I've been with her since I was two. But I can't regret my decision. I want her to be happy and for her to be happy I have to be out of her life. I finished unpacking my stuff, took a shower and went to bed. Tomorrow was my first day of school and I was going to need all my energy to make it through the first day.

BEEP BEEP BEEP!!

I woke to the blaring sound of my alarm clock. Today was my first day of school. I did my bed and took a quick shower to calm my nerves. I looked in the mirror when I was done changing to see if I was presentable. My skin was naturally pale but here it looked unhealthy. I was petite with slender build, from my previous athletic career. My long chocolate brown hair was just hanging there long and boring just like always. Surely I wouldn't stand out here to much like I did in Phoenix, I'm sure nobody here has a spray on tan.

I went downstairs, stumbling along the way (I guess I was only graceful on the court or in the water) grabbed a pop tart and went out side to my truck. The roar of the engine made me jump. It really did run great, however it was slow but I didn't mind. The school wasn't really hard to find it was just a bunch of cream colored houses with a big sign that read "Fork's High School". I parked near the building that said "Front Office" and went inside. Sitting in the desk was a pudgy red haired woman with big glasses typing on an outdated computer.

"Excuse me," I said. She looked up from the computer. "My name is Isabella Swan," comprehension flickered on her face. "I'm new here."

"Yes dear we've been expecting you," figures in a town this small I was probably the center of gossip. "I have your schedule and a map of the school for you." She said shuffling papers.

She showed me the quickest ways too my classes and slip that I'm supposed to get signed by all the teachers and return at the end of the day. She gave me a friendly goodbye as I walked out of the office. Students were starting to arrive so I drove my truck to student parking and parked in an empty space. I sat in my truck a little while not really wanting to face the day, so I memorized my classes and tried to calm myself down. When I got out of the cab I noticed my truck wouldn't stand out here, most of the cars here were old like mine with the exception of an expensive looking silver Volvo. By the Volvo was small pixie like girl. She was shockingly beautiful, her black spiky hair created a halo around her lovely face. She caught me looking at her and gave me a broad grin and an all knowing look, like she was expecting me. She waved at me and then ran off in the other direction. Odd, I thought, there was something familiar about her but I couldn't put my finger on it.

The rest of the morning passed pretty quickly, people were staring at me, which made me feel self conscious; some even had the bravery to introduce themselves. Currently I was walking with this girl to the lunch room who was in my Spanish and trig class. She was short but her brown fizzy hair made up for our height difference. I was going to sit down with her and her friends. We bought our lunches and she introduced me to her friends. In that moment sitting in that cafeteria is when I spotted them.

There were five of them, all strikingly inhumanely…beautiful. All their features were perfect and much the same but they each carried a different look. All different yet all the same. One of them I recognized as the small pixie girl from this morning. There was another girl and three boys. The other girl was statuesque's with long lustrous blond hair. Out of the three boys one was big and muscled with curly brown hair, the boy next to him was not as bulky but still pretty muscled with blond hair. The last boy was not as big as the boys next to him but you could clearly see the defined muscle, and he had unusual bronze colored hair. I couldn't stop staring at them, there beauty was so surreal. The one who drew my attention the most was the bronze haired boy, he was different then the other around him. He seemed so terribly depressed, like would burst out in tears at any moment, I felt the need to go comfort him, give him a hug and tell him everything was going to be alright.

What a silly thought, I don't even know him.

"I see you spotted the Cullen's and the Hales," the girl who I remembered as Jessica, said breaking me out of my trance.

As soon as she that the bronze hair boy raised his head to look at us. When he saw me he looked generally shocked, his face was full of surprise and disbelief. He looked like he seen a ghost. As he seemed to get over the shock he gave me the most beautiful crooked smile I've ever seen. I blushed a deep crimson.

"So uh who are they?" I asked Jessica looking away from him, but from the corner of my eye I saw him still smiling.

"Well as I said they're the Cullen's and the Hale's, the two blonds are the Hale's, Rosalie and Jasper, their twins. The big one is Emmett Cullen, the small girl is Alice Cullen and the one starring at you is Edward Cullen," she said. "They're all adopted by Dr. Carlisle Cullen and his wife."

When I looked back at him I noticed his eyes. They were a beautiful golden color, they seemed so familiar.

-Flash Back-

I was at the mall with my mom helping her pick out an outfit for date with Phil.

I was waiting outside the store when I felt someone watching me.

I turned and saw two beautiful golden eyes looking back at me. I blushed a light pink, quickly looked away and started walking the other direction after Renee.

-End of Flash Back-

Could it have been him who I saw a couple years ago?

"So um how long have they been here?" I asked Jessica, looking away from him.

"They moved here two years ago from somewhere in Alaska," Well at least I'm not the only newcomer here.

"They're all very…nice looking" I said shyly.

"Yes," she giggled "but don't waste your time they are all together, Alice and Jasper and Emmett and Rosalie, Edward doesn't have a girlfriend but he doesn't date." She said disappointedly and a little bitterly, obviosly he turned her down once...or more.

"But the way he is looking at you I think that is about to change" she said with a hint of jealousy. I almost snorted, the day someone like him gets interested in me is the day I learn to fly.

The rest of the lunch consisted of me stealing glazes at him only to find him still staring at me with such happiness and wonder. It was hard not to look like a tomato while he was looking at me. Finally the bell rang, much to my relief, and I saw them leave the cafeteria with startling graze after he gave me one last almost longing smile.

I walked to my next class, biology, with a shy girl from lunch. Angela, I think was her name. She was nice to be around, she wasn't as chatty as others I met today which was a conforting. When we entered the biology room, Angela took her seat next to someone I assumed was her lab partner. I looked around to see that the only seat available was next to... EDWARD CULLEN!!

Crap!

I tried to control my breathing and not seem like I was having an asthma attack. I took a deep breath and walked up to the teacher. When I passed him to the teacher his head snapped up to look at me. He closed his eyes and inhaled deeply. The teacher, Mr. Vaner, signed my slip and sent me to the only seat available. I took my seat, careful not to look at him. I used my hair as a curtain between us in hope that he didn't see my stained red cheeks.

"Hello," he said. "I wanted to introduce myself, my name is Edward Cullen."

. . .

His voice was so beautiful, velvet smooth and melodic, his smile was even more beautiful up-close, as I turned to look at him.

It took a few seconds before my brained formed a response.

"I-I B-Bella S-Swan." I stuttered, can't my brain form a normal response?

"Oh I know," he smirked. I found myself dazed.

"Nice to meet you" I said, thankfully not stuttering.

At that moment the teacher called the class to begin the lecture. I began to take notes on the lecture even though I already studied this in Phoenix, but I needed something to distract me from his face. We didn't get the chance to speak anymore which I was thankful for, I didn't need to make a fool out myself in front a gorgoes guy that may possibly like me - possibly, but through the whole class he kept starring at me with such curiosity, occasionally he would smile making me blush.

The bell rang making me jump, I heard a quiet chuckle.

"May I escort you to your next class?" Edward said getting up from his stool.

I nodded not really trusting my mouth. He beamed at me and led me out the door. He took my schedule and looked at my next class. GYM. I always hated Gym, sure I was better at it but I just didn't like it, the second reason why I went into sports. On are way there everyone was staring. Girls were giving me the death glare while the guys did the same to Edward but he didn't seem to notice, and if he did notice he really didn't seem to care.

When we got there he turned around to look at me and smiled. I must have looked like an idiot the way I was starring at him. He took my hand gently in his, it was freezing cold but it was oddly conforting to me, and kissed it tenderly, as he did that I felt an electric shock pass through my body as his lips made contact with my hand. My blush deepened, I must look like a cherry now.

"I'll see you tomorrow, I hope you like it here," he said his eyes smoldering at me, his voice velvet smooth and...seductive, I was struggling to breath, he smiled one last time and then he walked away.

I walked into the locker room dazed. Did that just happen? It couldn't of been real, why would someone like him take an interest in me? I kept pondering this as I made my way up to the coach. I tried unsuccessfully not to get my hopes up.

Gym was easy, Coach Clapp didn't make me change today so I sat watching everybody play volleyball and trying to keep my mind off Edward Cullen but failing miserably. Why can't I stop thinking about him? He probably isn't interested he was probably just being nice. When the bell rang I collected my stuff and made my way towards the door.

"Wait," I heard someone say. When I turned around I saw a blond baby faced boy with ice blue eyes running towards me.

"I didn't get to introduce myself earlier, I'm Mike Newton, you must be Isabella Swan," he said excitedly.

"Bella," I corrected. "Yes. I am."

"I would have introduced myself after Bio, but Cullen started to bother you, he is a weird guy." He said his name with such venom. "If you ever need me to save you from him, I'm willing to help."

"He wasn't bothering me," I said a little defensively.

"Oh, Okay," he said skeptically.

I was starting to get annoyed. I had a feeling I would have to watch out for Mike. "Mike, I have to go," I said quickly and walked away.

"Okay, I'll see you tomorrow!" he shouted from behind. Yep I'm definatly going to have to watch out for him.

I walked to the office and returned my paperwork as quickly as possible wanting to get home.

When I was walking to my truck I saw Edward Cullen and his siblings get into the silver Volvo. He spotted me and gave me a smile before he got into the car and drove away.

I got into the cab of my truck with a goofy smile on my face, and drove away. When I got home I was going to cook some diner for Charlie but as I explored his fridge I knew I had some seriuos grocery shopping to do, so I ordered some pizza instead just for tonight. while waiting for the pizza to arrive I decide to begin my homework.

Sometime before Charlie got home the pizza arrived. I payed him and closed the door.

"Hey kid how was your day?" Charlie asked when he got home, taking of his gun belt and his jacket. I got a couple slices of pizza for him and for me.

"It was fine," I said nonchalantly.

"That's good," he said, "did you make new friends?"

"There was this girl who invited me to sit with her friends at lunch, they were pretty nice" I said, avoiding the part about Edward. He didn't need to know about him, when I barely know what happened between us.

The rest of dinner was a very quiet event, Charlie wasn't much for small talk so dinner was slightly awkward. When isn't there a momment when things aren't awkward between us?

When I finished dinner I went upstairs and finished my homework. I got my toiletries from my bag and headed towards the bathroom. I turned on the hot water to the point that it was burning, I got in and let the hot water realx my muscles as I reran the day in my head, specially biology class and my encounter with Edward Cullen. Who was this beautiful boy who deciced to take an interest in me? And most importantly why me? Clearly he could get any girl he wanted but why me? If he is interested at all and not just being nice. I was so confused, but right now I was feeling to tired to think anymore.

I got ready for bed and tucked myself in my bed, I felt as if would pass out, my eyes were getting heavy as I turned off the lamp by my night stand. That night was the first night I dreamt of Edward Cullen.

Was that better? worse? just let me know either PM or review!!

I appreiciate all my readers for letting me know of this!! You all get hugs from Edward!!
