Bella pov

"So, tell me a bit about yourself, gorgeous." Edward asked me in a sleazy tone; it kind of reminded me of a game show host, in a strange way. We'd been driving for about 10 minutes and it had been silent apart from the hum on the engine. To say it was awkward would be an understatement.

"I'm Bella. I'm 17. And you're annoying me." I said shortly, briefly glancing at his face. I was beginning to wish I'd just taken a lift with the girls. I would have put up with the sucking face if I realised how bad this would have been.

"Oh, come on. You have to give me a bit more to go on than that, babe." He smiled crookedly and for a millisecond I realised just how attractive he was, but I thought about something else quickly before my brain had the chance to elaborate on that fact.

"Do not call me babe." I told him simply, returning my gaze to staring out of the window. I heard him chuckle once.

"Your wish is my command." He told me, wryly. Once again I rolled my eyes at his comment, doing my best to ignore him.

We continued to drive at a ridiculously fast speed towards Forks and as we did so I kept my gaze fixed out of the window. Taking in the scenery of my new home. It was strange how it seemed I fit in so well here after one day, but in 15 years in Arizona I never found a cliché. I decided I'd ring my mom when I got home. I needed to hear her voice. Edwards's next question pulled me abruptly out of my thoughts.

"So, why'd you move here anyway?" I froze, this was the question I was dreading most.

"None of your business." I snapped, clenching my jaw.

Something about my tone of voice seemed to shut him up. I glanced at his face quickly and he was deep in thought. It was one of the few times today I'd seen him looking remotely serious; it was sort of a shock. But I wasn't going to answer that question, at least not to him I wasn't. Not when I really wasn't too fond of him. The rest of the journey home was silent, neither of us chose to start a conversation again and that was for the best I think. When we eventually arrived outside my house I said a simple;

"Well, thanks for the lift. Bye."

And left before he had a chance to reply.

Upstairs, I dialled the number I knew all too well into my cell and rang. I heard the usual 6 dial tones and then,

"Hey, it's Renee. I can't take your call at the moment; leave your name and number after the beep."

I sighed as I heard her voice for the first time in what seemed like forever.

"Hey, mom. I thought I'd ring you, you know, seeing as it was my first day at school today and all. It was better than I expected. I made a few friends, but there's this one jerk called Edward, but I'll deal with him, you taught me well." I paused for a second and took a deep breath before I continued, "Oh, you'll never guess what. I tried out for the cheerleading team! Yeah, looks like those gymnastic lessons came in handy after all." I stopped again and looked down at my feet. "I really miss you," I closed my eyes and my voice broke at towards the end of the sentence, "There's not a day that goes by when I don't think of you." I felt a single tear fall from my eyes and I wiped it away harshly with the back of my hand. "But I need to be strong. I know that. Bye, mom. I love you." I finished and hung up the phone, dropping it on my pillow before heading downstairs.

The next morning before school Rose showed me where to go to find out if I'd made the squad or not. In all honesty I really wasn't that bothered, but she'd insisted I'd go see the bulletin board, and she said it with a big stupid smile on her face as well. I found the board because a group of girls where stood in a huddle, giggling excitedly, Tanya being one of them. I pushed past them and scanned the sheet of paper for my name. At the top of the sheet it said;

Head cheerleader: Rosalie Hale.

The next line shocked me to say the least.

Deputy head cheerleader: Isabella Swan

I had to read it twice to make sure my eyes weren't playing tricks on me. Next thing I knew Rosalie was in front of me, squealing excitedly, next to her was Alice, who was jumping up and down clapping her hands. I raised an eyebrow at them,

"Okay, is this a joke?" Rose giggled at my question.

"Nope, you were just that amazing." She replied with a smile.

"What, so I'm like, your beta or something?" I asked a little smug, not only had I shown that skank what I was made of, I'd done it in style.

"Pretty much," She answered my question, a little side tracked because walking towards us was Emmett, with a big goofy grin plastered on his face, identical to Rose's. Me and Alice wandered away as they greeted each other rather passionately.

"Are they always like that?" I asked a little sceptically, Alice laughed at my question, as if it had the most obvious answer.

"Pretty much, but it's cute, don't you think?" I nodded in response, I guess it was. I decided now was the perfect time to ask her all about the guy from last night that she'd been shamelessly flirting with.

"So, who's that guy your brother hangs around with?"

Alice got a dreamy look on her face before she answered.

"Oh, that's Jasper, Rose's twin."

"What's happening between you two then?" I asked. Her eyes almost turned sad and her nose scrunched up before she answered.

"Nothing, I wish something would happen, but he just doesn't notice me at all," she almost huffed, throwing her arms about as if to prove her annoyance at this.

She had to be kidding though, he didn't notice her? Okay, maybe he didn't notice what she was saying, but that was just because he was infatuated by her very presence. How could she not see that? I saw that after only being around them a few moments.

"Al, are you kidding? Not notice you? He was staring at you like you where the only thing in the world that mattered yesterday!" Her eyes lit up as I said that.

"Really? You're not just saying that?"

I chuckled at her and spun her around slightly so she was facing the parking lot. I pointed in the direction of the very man we were talking about who was gawking at her at this very moment. She gasped as she saw him looking at her and began to giggle excitedly, I had to join her in laughing-her laugh was infectious.

As we sat at a picnic bench, enjoying the rare sun before lessons, I saw Alice's gaze travel behind me and begin to frown.

"Edward, stop checking her out already!" I turned to find him with that stupid smug smile plastered on his face as his eyes travelled slowly from my feet all the way up my body until they finally rested on my face. He then looked over my head at his sister,

"Aww, but she's just so hot. It's hard not to." He winked at me again and I fought back the urge to gag.

"Seriously, does your eye have a twitch or something? It keeps winking at me." I told him. Once again he laughed at my response to him.

"So, I now see you're deputy head cheerleader. Seeing as I'm vice captain of the football team we should hook up,"

"And why's that?" I asked, for once I wasn't annoyed at him, just amused.

"It's like the code of high school, babe, I'm surprised you haven't come onto me already."

"Oh, babe," I imitated his tone, taking a step towards him and placing one hand on his chest. This time I didn't jump, I was sort of used to the electric shock I got every time I touched Edward. I decided to play with him a bit. I took another step towards him and pressed me body close against his, lifting my face to look at his. He looked a tad shocked by my forwardness, but still pretty pleased with himself. I leaned on my tip toes so my lips where centimetres from his and lightly brushed my lips against his, so lightly I could hardly feel his lips against mine. I stepped back then and looked him up and down. His eyes where shut and lips slightly puckered, did he honestly think he was going to get me that easily?

"Hmm," At the sound of my voice Edward's eyes shot open and as he saw the smug expression on my face, narrowed slightly. "Nah, I'm alright." I quipped, grabbing my bag from the bench behind me and grinning at Alice, who had a look of total awe on her face.

I Walked past Edward and brushed his side slightly as I did so. Was it wrong that I kind of enjoyed the shocks I got from coming into contact with his skin? A moment later I felt someone come up close behind me and of course it was Edward, even when we weren't touching I could feel a sort of electric current flowing from his body.

"That was mean," He whispered, right by my ear. His voice gave me Goosebumps and I wasn't quite sure why. I shrugged and flipped my head over my shoulder to see his face in very close proximity to mine.
"So are you," I told him before I headed to my first lesson.

I had to admit, I was a little smug.

This was a bit of a filler, and I'm not really pleased with it, but I thought i'd put it up anyway. Also, i have no idea if you get deputry head cheerleaders or not but i thought i'd put it in because it matched with Edward being vice captain I hope you enjoyed it anyway, my one reviewer ;) ahaa, thankyou, again! Reviews would make me staying up late to finish this worth it
