Previously (in EPOV)...

"What does it feel like Edward?" she asked. I knew she didn't mean to, but she sounded very seductive.

"It was embarrassing," I spat. It was very hard to keep up my angry look at her, seeing as I was melting into pudding under her look.

"Good," she hissed with so much venom, I actually flinched back, looking at her with now shocked eyes.

"Now, you know how I feel," she finished, turning her head sharply, facing the board. Her hair flowed around her and I was assaulted with her heavenly, strawberry scent.


La Bullied Bella No More

Chapter 7: Bella's POV

I turned away from him; pissed off that of all the people in class, he was the one I had to sit next to. Really, did the gods somewhere have a grudge against me? Or is it that I'm just cursed in this puny green town?

I was pissed off that he even had the nerve to talk to me like that. What, did he think he was just a random innocent person that I unjustly preyed on? I inwardly scoffed at that. Yeah, right. If I was to prey on anybody, it sure wouldn't be him. Hmm, I would definitely go for Jensen Ackles. Ah, I've never been any more glad to be dragged into the world of Supernatural by Dan. Mmmmm, Dean Winchester...

"Umm..."

I jolted out of my daydream by that voice. Grr... Stupid, honey, velvety voice.

I stiffly turned my head a bit, just barely enough to look at him and cocked a brow.

"Are you alright?" He asked, looking at me strangely.

"Yes, why?" I said, forcing the words out of clenched teeth. When will he learn that talking to me is hazardous to his health?

"You were... err... moaning," He whispered, almost timidly while rubbing the back of his neck. Ha! As if he could ever be timid.

I thought he was timid back when w—wait. Did he just say I was moaning?

I felt my eyes go round but quickly composed myself. Calm down Bella. Show him you're the new, confident and independent Bella.

"Yes, thank you for pointing that out. I was just fantasising about Jensen," I told him, as-a-matter-of-factly; trying to hold in my giggles when his eyes almost bulged out of its sockets and his mouth almost dropping on the table.

I smirked at him and faced back in front. I saw him rearrange his features and faced front as well.

I decided to ignore him for the rest of the day. It would be better for all of us, really.

I ignored Mr. Johnson's lecture on naming compounds and thought about what I did in the cafeteria just before this class.

I can't believe how well that went! Not to mention that I did it just out of the spur of the moment. I saw the situation and took my chance. Ohohoho, I laughed evilly in my head in a French accent. He shouldn't have been so cocky, leaning back, enjoying my leg while sipping his soda. He acted like he was a fucking King! Ha. Never in his life will he be one. The kings in my life would kick his ass all the way to the Great Wall. Did he honestly think I'd give in and forgive him as easily as that? Well if he did, he's an idiot and deserves it.

I looked at my watch and crap! I still have half an hour before this hell of a class ends. Oh well, I guess I better make the best of it and think of my next move.

Okay, so, so far, I've memorized the hallways and which way leads to where. I had English with Alice and Rose at first period; History with Jasper; Calculus with Alice and Emmett; Spanish with Rose; lunch with everyone; Chemistry with not-worth-mentioning-his-name; and Gym alone, from what Alice told me after stealing my schedule.

From the looks of it, it seems like no one from the group knew about my past, except the four idiots, of course and I intend to keep it that way. The less people who know, the less people I have to watch out for.

It meant that I could only execute any plotting Felix, Demetri and I had during lunch, Chemistry class and before and after classes. Hmm, not bad actually. I think I can make this work.

I looked back at my watch and saw that there was only 10 minutes left of class, and then I would be free.

I was vaguely aware that penny head was talking to me, or at least, attempting and failing to, while I was in Bella La La Land. I ignored him, of course. I wasn't about to go get worked up and frustrated and end up popping a vein in my neck just because of him.

Riiiiiiiinnnng.

Ah finally! Sanctuary! I have no idea why I just yelled that in my head but it felt good.

I dumped all of my things in my bag, not bothering to arrange them and sprinted towards the door.

I could hear Penny, yup, my new awesome, girly name for him, rushing behind me, probably wanting to annoy the shit out of me some more. God, is he so thick that he can't understand that I don't want to talk to him?!

"Hey Eddie, what's the rush?" A high pitched, nasally voice sounded from behind me and I heard the pursuing steps stop. Does every girl in this town have nasally voices? It must have something to do with the weather. Maybe the fog is clogging up their nostrills so they felt the need to speak through them to clear it up. Oops, no wait. Alice and Rose have nice voices. Maybe they're a couple of special cases excempted from this abnormality.

"Err, hi... Lauren," I heard him mumble as I was out the door.

Curiosity got the best of me and I pressed my back against the wall beside the door and listened in. I pretended to fumble around for something in my bag so I wouldn't look suspicious to the other students as I strained my ear.

"So, Edward," Oh god! Did she seriously just attempt to purr? This was an insult to cats everywhere! "What do you say to taking me out tonight? We can go on a romantic dinner, just the two of us..." she trailed off.

Oh my sweet holy crow! Who the hell does she think she is—the Goddess of Beauty to invite herself on a date? Well, come to think of it, I haven't really seen Lauren again. Maybe she is beautiful.... naaaah.

I heard Penny sigh heavily, "Look, Lauren. How many times do I have to tell you? I'm not interested in you," he practically snarled the last part and I almost hit my head on the wall behind me from the venom his voice had.

"But Edddiiieee," Sweet lord, shoot me now.

"Don't call me Eddie," Penny snapped.

At that, I started to bite my tongue to stop bursting out laughing. Oh la la, so he doesn't like being called Eddie. I could use this to my advantage. I started snickering and saw some students look at me strangely from the corner of my eye.

I took out my cell phone and started pressing random buttons to busy myself while eavesdropping.

"Fine, Edward," I heard her snort. Wow, that's attractive. I rolled my eyes. "Why don't you just accept it that we're meant to be?" she asked in a 'duuh' tone, as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.

I could hear faint gritting noise, sounding like from Penny's teeth being mashed together forcibly. Wow, he really hates this girl.

"We are not meant to be Lauren! You ask me this every other day and I give you the same answer, every other day. Why don't you just give up?!" Penny yelled and I decided to get out of there before I expose myself of eavesdropping by rolling around on the floor, howling.

I hit speed dial and called Damon. I could still hear Penny and Lauren arguing in the background but I was too excited to tell Damon about the cafeteria scene to pay any more attention to them. Although... I did want to see the look on his face while trying to get out of Lauren's crutches.

"Ciao Bella," Damon's voice broke through the phone and I smiled.

"Ciao Damon," I greeted back, walking by the open doorway and looking in casually, "come stai oggi? (How are you today?)"

I grinned when I saw Penny's head turn up sharply to see me on the phone. His face was contorted in a funny way from seething at Lauren who had her back to me. I stifled a laugh and quickly looked away.

"Bene, bene, e tu? (Good, good, and you?)" he answered back with a smile in his voice.

And so, I proceeded to tell him about my awesome adventure of making penny head Doucheward look like a kindergarten, peeing on himself in front of everybody in the cafeteria.

Damon howled in laughter in his booming voice after I've finished telling him the story, including the thing with Lauren.

"Che è così divertente! (That is so funny!)" He wheezed out eventually. "Ma si rende conto che devi venire con punizioni meglio, giusto? (But you do realize that you have to come up with better punishments, right?)" He added firmly.

I sighed sadly and exasperatedly as I entered through the gym doors. "Si, certamente. (Yes, of course.)"

"Okay, tu mi manchi tanto miele (Okay, I miss you so much honey)," he sighed into the phone.

"Tu mi manchi anche Dame. Dillo a Dan e Dean quello che ho detto. Sono sicuro che otterrà una risata di troppo. (I miss you too Dame. Tell Dan and Dean what I told you. I'm sure they'll get a laugh out of it too.)" I said, chuckling a bit and Damon joining me.

"Si, si, mi chiami presto. Ciao. (Yes, yes, call me soon. Bye.)" He said sadly.

"Ciao," I whispered back.

I fought back the tears that threatened to escape while I went into the locker room to change. Really, ever since I've met those three, I've never been this far away from them. Heck, we didn't even go home for Christmas or summer or whatever. We were our own family.

I walked back into the gym with a very visible frown on my face.

That frown was slightly lifted off when I found out we were playing basketball. Coach wanted me to sit out at first since 'it was my first day and all' and blah blah blah. I told him that I was playing and no way was I going to sit with the prissy girls while the guys have fun.

I know, not very charming, but who the fuck cares?

Gym ended and I am officially beaming—and I mean BEAMING!

I was playing against Mike and Eric, bwahahaha, with Angela and Ben on my team. Angela was actually the closest person to a friend I had here back four years ago. It was so nice to reacquaint with her again. Of course, I've already met Ben from when he went to our house for that stupid 'meeting'. He's actually very nice, I'm glad those two are together.

But that wasn't the reason why I was so happy. The reason why I'm having such a hard time controlling myself from bursting into a victory dance is that I mercilessly creamed Mike and Eric in basketball!

Public humiliation! Bwahahahah! I had help from Ben, Angela, she was surprisingly good, and some guy called Taylor. All the other people sucked and in the end, they were laughing at the other team on how they lost to just four people. Ah, life. I guess it is good after all.

I rushed to the locker room and changed back to my normal clothes then sprinted again towards the parking lot to wait for Emmett by his ridiculously large jeep.

"Bella!" I looked over and saw Alice skipping towards me.

"Hey Alice, what's up?" I smiled at her, I really like her.

"I heard you totally beat the stuffings out of the other team in Gym!" she exclaimed, her eyes glinting with excitement. Stuffings? Who says that? Oh well, I guess she does.

I laughed smugly, "Yeah, well, I had help, you know."

"Yeah, but Angela told me you practically owned the game! That's so cool. Where'd you learn how to play?" she talked so fast, I had to concentrate just to get it all.

"Yeah Bells, everyone who saw's talking about it," we turned around and saw my brother walking towards us. Oh, lookie, Penny is right behind him with Jasper, goodie. Grrr. Note sarcasm.

"I learned from Italy. Let's just leave it at that," I told them, hopping in the jeep as Emmett opened the doors.

They eyed me curiously for a while though before shrugging, walking off and waving at us.

Emmett asked me about how my day was and that was basically the topic of conversation until dinner was over with dad and the two game buffs headed into the living room to look through the channels for a game-- any game, these two are desperate, to watch.

"Night, Emmy. Night, Dad," I called to them halfway up the stairs and I heard the two greet me back in a mumble.

Stupid game, making them forget they have a daughter and a sister.

I snatched my toiletries kit and headed towards the bathroom.

I brushed my teeth, washed my face and tied my hair in a ponytail before going back into my room to change into my pajamas.

I climbed into bed and pulled my covers up until my nose and stared at the ceiling.

I wasn't really sleepy yet so I thought of what to do to Penny this week.

I narrowed my eyes at a crack and thought hard.

Damon clearly said that I needed to make better punishments. Okay, that's definitely a must, but some of the things Felix, Demetri and I came up with were too short... only to be executed quickly... quick pranks. So, what's better?

I was already squinting from thinking when I remembered what Felix told me in the kitchen: "Well Isabella. A sure way to knock him out is to mess with his ego..."

His ego. What I would do should take longer to execute. Which means, it would require planning and timing. Perfect, I'm definitely a pro at that.

I already know that he likes me—my looks, I mean. Shallow bastard. Well, he wants the new me, eh? I'll give him the new me.

Hmm, what else? What else?

Aha! He hates the name Eddie. No doubt I'll be able to use that.

"OH!" I suddenly yelled out loud. I slapped a hand across my mouth and muffled my giggles.

Lauren. How could I possibly forget her?! She asks him out every other day? What's worse is that she gets turned down, every other day too?! Oh, this is just rich. I really should find out what she looks like now. I snickered quietly under my covers.

Well, thanks to today's eventful... events, I know now what to do to pretty boy Eddie-boy for the whole week.

He better appreciate if after all the precise planning I'll be doing.

Hey, it's a bit shorter than my normal chapters but if I continued it, it would be TOO long. So I decided to cut it here. Don't worry. The next chapter is 1/4 done already and the idea is pulsing through me so I might have the next one posted in three days, okay? :)

Thank you for ALL of the reviews! Honestly, I don't think I'll ever get used to how you guys are amazing me with your reviews. Thank you so much! So, how'd you like this chapter? I accept all kinds of comments, suggestions and reviews so please... CLICK THE GREEN BUTTON! :)

SPECIAL MESSAGE FOR BREE: hey, that is an awesome idea! The one where I make another story based on the life of Bella in Italy together with Dan, Dean, and Damon. :) I will definitely do it. Although it might be after I complete this story first :) Also, thanks for the other idea Bree :)

More ideas on how Bella should get revenge on Edward are still welcomed. Again, thank you so much!!! :)
