Rosalie Point of View

I walked into my biology class in a daze. Angela and I walked through the many students in the hallways in a comfortable silence. I didn't get the need to start a conversation with Angela and would rather enjoy her company. It was easy with her she didn't pry into my past in Phoenix (not that there was much of one) and I could see we could quiet easily be friends in no time at all.

When I walked into the class nearly everyone's eyes turned to me and Angela gave me a small smile that seemed to say 'I feel sorry for you'. I returned it with a small sile of my own then I looked down trying to shield my blush with my hair and walked to Mr Banner my biology teacher. He smiled softly at me and signed my sheet.

"Okay Miss Swan, here are your books and your seat is next to Mr Cullen." CULLEN! The only available seat was next to Emmett. I thanked Mr Banner – he was quickly on his way to being one of my favourite teachers here unlike Mr Varner the trig teacher- and walked to my seat and surprisingly didn't trip. When I walked by Emmett stiffened and quickly put his hand over his mouth. He looked, no glared at me with coal black eyes. Weren't they gold before? His hands gripped the table and looked like it was going to break any minute; I could hear the wood creaking under the pressure he was using against it. He pulled his chair as far away from me as it could get.

I looked down shielding myself with my hair. Throughout the lesson neither of us spoke. I would try to sneak looks at him and then turned my head down blushing at being caught every time. But then again if he was glaring at me constantly there was never much chance of not being caught looking at him was there. As soon as the bell rang he was out of the door so fast I had hardly had any time to move. I looked at the door he had walked out of in disbelief. What had I done to deserve THAT reaction from him?

Wondering if I'd done anything wrong, I followed him to the secretary's desk, where he asked to be in another class, but was told all classes were full. He finally saw me in the room after I accidentally entered his peripheral vision so he muttered something about having to just endure it before leaving. I didn't even get to talk with him again to demand to know what his problem was before he and his family left the school and I didn't know what to think about that. What a first day to have I thought to myself sarcastically.

After school, Charlie and I had dinner at the diner. I ordered a vegetable burger and berry cobbler. Everyone kept complimenting me on how much I'd grown and looked now. When dinner was over and I got home, I went to my straight up to my room to do my homework and to call my mother.

"Hey, sweetie. So, listen if the spring training goes well, me and Phil could be moving to Florida," she said. Then I heard a voice say, "Please insert $1.25 for an additional three minutes." She was at a pay phone.

"Mom, where's your cell?" I asked.

"Okay, don't laugh. I didn't lose my power cord, it ran away screaming. I literally repel technology now," she said.

I chuckled. "I miss you."

"Oh, I miss you too, honey. But tell me more about your school. Now, what're the kids like? Are there any hot guys at all up there? Are they being nice to you?"

"Yeah, there are some nice guys here. The kids are all very nice and welcoming."

"Uh-oh, tell me all about it."

"It doesn't even matter," I said, wishing I hadn't said anything at all.

"Yes, it does, honey."

I really didn't want to tell her anything about Emmett Cullen's reaction to me in Biology or my small infatuation with him. The last thing I needed was another of my mother's long rants about how I shouldn't let anyone affect me and just be my own person. Just because she was older than me didn't mean she had a right to know everything. "Listen, I've got a lot of homework to do. I'll talk to you later."

"Okay, I love you."

"I love you too."

I hung up the phone and sighed as I ran my fingers through my hair as I finished up my homework and then got ready for bed. I couldn't stop thinking about Emmett Cullen. I wanted answers from him and if I was extremely lucky, I would hopefully get them within the next 24 hours or so.


Here's the new chapter which is about a third of the original chapter 3.

I also want to give a special shoutout to Lawsy89 who gave me a wicked idea for Bella's power.

I have posted the first chapter of Emmett's POV so please go and have a read of that if you have time and remember ...
