A/N: First I just want to apologize for taking a while to upload. I have been so wrapped into school and my other story, but I would try to balance everything out. from now on..And Thanks for alerting and reviewing & stuff! Keep it coming, I really don't mind.


BPOV

It was the early morning and both Alice and I were in my living room eating cocoa puffs while listening to my playlist, and once Don't go Away started to play, we had to stop everything and sing along. Both being obsessed with this band, I mean we even performed Cherry Bomb in a talent show once when were in junior high. We didn't win of course since were both terrible singers, and on top of that we were improvising throughout the whole dance. But it was still great fun…even if the audience might have gotten bored since not many kids at our age knew who The Runaways were.

Soon another song started to play and I quickly took a spoonful of my cereal before running back to my spot towards the couch. Alice on the other hand grabbed the remote and stood in front of the television where she would start singing. When it came to N'SYNC or any other pop boy band for that matter, we didn't play. We were one of the few that actually knew the whole dance choreography.

I started the song over so we can start from the beginning and could actually perform like we always do. (GO TO MY PROFILE FOR THE LINK OF THE SONG)

Once the song started to play, we got into our places; rolling our shoulders while we tried to be serious.

Bye Bye Bye

We started adding a few jumps while doing our 1-2 punch, step-step kick. We tried sliding on the floor and while I got up to add my shoulder wiggle; Alice walked to the front of the room and started to sing.

"Girl I'm doing this to-night…you're ("you're") probably gonna start a fight, I ("I") know this can't be right-hey baby come on."

Now I sang. "I loved you end-less-ly, and ("and") you weren't there for me, so ("so") now it's time to leave and make it a-lone"

We both sang. "I know that I can't take no more, it ain't no lie. I wanna see you walk-that-door--Baby bye-bye-bye!!!"

"I don't want to be a fool for you, just another player in your game for two!!"

We both raised our arms while sliding into different places before jumping in place and gesturing bye bye bye.

"I don't really want to make it tough, I just wanna tell you that I had enough!!"

We jumped and switched places before stepping and repeating the gesture but in a more rougher and tougher matter.

I got in the front this time to sing. "Oh!oh you just hit me with the truth. Now (now) girl you're more than welcome to-"

I then slid to the floor so Alice could pull me up by the shoulders but I was too heavy for her so we only laughed while trying to move our shoulders like puppets. We then got into place again; pretending to thrust and then doing the famous square step. We added another hop while she continued to sing out of breath, and then we lifted our arms up in a touchdown form while turning and shaking our shoulders.

After getting to place again and jumping while pointing towards the door and screaming bye bye bye.

"I don't want to be a fool for you, just another player in your game for two!" We sang while dancing out of place and messing up really badly. But I tried to cover it up by running to the front and doing the gesture.

"I don't really want to make it tough, I just wanna tell you that I had enough!!"

By this point we tried to get back into rhythm but we were so lost and confused that we just ended up adding our own steps and retarded movements.

And while we sang in a whispering tone while doing the Macarena and booty popping, I noticed Edward standing by the corner with a huge grin planted on his face. I quickly froze while Alice started singing her Justin solo.

He laughed while I grimaced, feeling my cheeks flush in response. I couldn't believe he had just seen all this, I mean I have acted far more worse then that before but this time was so different.

Finally Alice noticed him and she rolled her eyes while she got back to the N'SYNC dancing. I couldn't help but laugh; of course I should have known that she wouldn't stop dancing just because her cousin was here.

He stepped towards me and started singing along while looking directly at me.

"I don't wanna be a fool! But I had enough…" he said while closing his eyes and taking my hand. I knew he was joking around just like always but once again--things were not the same now.

He really had no idea how that was affecting me, he was just too hot.

I decided to reach for the small beige pillow next to me and whacked him across the face with it. He laughed but surprisingly didn't so anything about it. Usually he'll hit me back or just attack me or something, but instead he stared at me for a while, causing me to feel strange since his eyes were so intense and focused.

What was he thinking?

"So" Alice began while pausing the Journey song that was starting to play. "Where's Jasper?"

Edward leaned back on the couch next to me, spreading his legs while grinning at Alice. "in the car with Tanya."

I felt my eyes grow wide; I would have felt so hot feeling his leg press against the side of my thigh, but him mentioning Tanya's name definitely ruined things.

"Tanya?" I asked.

"…yeah?"

"She's leaving with us?" Alice asked, with the same look of disgust in her face.

"Duh. I've been taking her to school for the past few days so why wouldn't I take her today?"

"Ew? Why not?" I asked

"Because she's like…I don't know, my girlfriend."

Both Alice and I exchanged glances before getting up to take our bowls to the kitchen. "What's wrong?" he asked, while we continued ignore him while walking away.

"Fuck" I said once putting the bowl in the sink. "I'm gonna be in a car with Tanya."

"Yeah…when he agreed to give us a lift to school, I thought he meant just us four."

I sucked my teeth. Yesterday, Alice had convinced Edward to take us to school in the morning but we didn't expect for Tanya to be included; she ruined everything. I was fucking excited to ride with him and maybe even flirt a little--but now this happened.

"Well who cares Bella, the ride is like 20 minutes long, we could just ignore her."

"Ew, but she's still going to be sitting with him while I sit next to you and fricking Jasper-"

"Hey-hey-hey" she said while cutting me off "and…what's wrong with you sitting with us? You should feel blessed."

I laughed, "well whatever. You must be out of your mind if you think that I'm riding with them tomorrow-or the next week for that matter."

"What? Bella I don't want to take the bus to school anymore."

"Well it's way better than hearing her mushy conversation with Edward. 'oh Eddie, my boyfriend, heehaw'" I mimicked quietly, hoping that Edward couldn't hear us.

She held back a laugh. "heehaw? She doesn't even sound like that."

I chuckled. "she so does…she laughs like a donkey."

"But you made her sound more like a cowboy.."

"…shut up."

She sighed. "Well let's go, there's nothing we could do now, so just…suck it up."

"Ugh."

We then walked back to the living room where Edward was still stretched out with a blank look on his face. I knew he wanted us to hurry up, he was just trying to be subtle about it.

Both Alice and I went to my room to put on our shoes. She wore a pair of hot, pink skinny jeans with a nice black top over it and some flats. I on the other hand went back to my simple style which consisted of a simple t shirt with jeans and some sneakers. Today I had a gray batman shirt with a pair of light blue jeans and some multicolor dunks.(In profile you can check out Bella's outfit if you want) My hair was already getting greasy so I decided to wash it this morning and made two French braids so I could undo it and reveal my awesome waves.

"Nice" Alice told me as she ran her fingers through her hair.

"Thank you." I said while ruffling mine.

"I am so proud of you" she began. "my young apprentice...it was a long journey I'll admit, I mean the way you started out…but now look at you, styling your hair in different ways, oh my god" she let out a fake sob and started to dry her invisible tears.

"Great progress, huh?"

"Yep."

It still kind of surprised me as well, that only a few months ago I was kind of intimidated by all this and now everything seemed so natural.

EPOV

I grew impatient and right when I was about to go see what was taking them so long, Alice stepped out.

"Finally" I said while taking a few steps back and noticing Bella flick the lights off in her room.

And fuck did she look gorgeous, I mean she looked adorable in her two braids but now she looked so fucking hot. I'd never seen her hair like that before and it really looked nice on her.

Wow, was Bella really going to make things difficult for me this year. I don't think I would be able to drive her to school every morning if it meant having to suffer like this; just seeing her in her boyish and comfortable shirt with a pair of tight jeans that showed off her curves and long legs.

Ah. I just wanted to push her back into her room, throw her on the bed and start kissing her. The lights were off and Alice could just randomly disappear in my fantasy, I would pretty much have Bella all to myself; just feeling her soft body under me or on top and even in the side if she wanted. Pretty much anything that would make her to feel right since she was Bella after all and I have always felt that I needed to make sure she was okay.

Damn, I could already see her naked in my head…she would look so perfect and feel soft and warm. And surprisingly it actually bothered me that she could playfully hug her guy friends instead of me. I mean, even Emmett; which sucked. They have always had that close relationship where she would call him her big teddy bear and he would always playfully defend her. I hated that he could touch her whenever he wanted, just like Jasper since he's always been really close to her too.

But me…the one who actually wanted to touch her for the right reasons, couldn't get the chance to. It would never work that way with us since we never came to a point in our relationship where it require for us to do that. Not mattering that we were close friends.

I can't even begin to imagine what she would say if I actually told her that I was starting to fall her. She would probably get uncomfortable and then our friendship would never be the same which is something I can't let happen, no way. I rather play it safe, just stay with my girlfriend while she does her own thing.

It was obviously the right way to go since this was all just temporary. She randomly got super attracted and it took me off guard, I'm sure that in a month or so things would go back to normal.

BPOV

We made it to school pretty early and it was a very awkward ride. I don't care what Alice says, I'm definitely not riding with them again. Tanya acted exactly the way I expected her to; talking to Edward in the stupid squeaky, "Marilyn Monroe" voice while ignoring us the entire time. It was ridicules, and the worse part was that Edward was actually into this…or at least pretended to.

The way he kept smiling at her and responding to her stupid mushy statements, ugh. I can't see how Jasper was able to put up with this for the last few days.

It was around 10pm and I was sitting next to Mike in the back table during biology. We were playing tic tac toe while waiting for the teacher to arrive. It was a pretty hectic game since we were both experts in this field. He knew all the secret moves, like how starting in the middle is the best choice, or my favorite move-- using any three corners as a start, so it will get you to win the game no matter what.

"Tie…" he said with a sigh. "again…"

I held back a smile while scribbling on the notebook. "this sucks…the only way we could win is if we each play with someone that sucks."

He nodded while looking down at me, "Eric?"

"Yeah, go get him." I joked.

But right that second the teacher stepped in, wearing her brown button down dress while pulling her huge bookbag with wheels in the end. It was crazy how it was only the first week of school and she was already packing some major work for us.

"Good Morning, class…how are we all doing today."

"Fineee" we all responded in our bored pathetic tone.

"Good, good." she said while taking her place in front of her desk while adjusting her huge librarian glasses. "so, who has the joke of week for us, today?"

Unfortunately our corny teacher had this traditional thing where every week, mostly on Wednesdays, someone had to come up with a joke relating to Biology. Though many kids thought it was kind of stupid, I found it pretty amusing.

"…okay?" she said, "how about we get back to this after attendance, then?"

Both Mike and I rolled our eyes while everyone got settled in. She quickly went down the list, pausing after every name to ask us how are were doing, but when she came to my name, which was of the last ones--she frowned.

"Isabella?" she asked.

"…yes" I muttered, kind of annoyed.

"May I have a word with you for a moment?"

"…sure." I said while leaning back on the seat and staring at Mike..

"What did you do?" he asked.

But before I could answer him, the teacher cleared her throat.

"Oh…did you want to speak with me, now?" I asked sort of clueless.

"…well now would be the appropriate time, yes."

Not really I wanted to say since she was obviously still going through attendance. But still, I got up from my seat and noticed how everyone was staring up at me.

It was soo awkward.

I watched her pull a slip from her front pocket and handed it to me. "Isabella, it turns out that your one of thew few juniors to be selected to switch to a senior class." she explained. "You are now transferred to a chemistry class upstairs with Mr. Banner in room 324."

"What? Why?"

"It seems that you did very well on the test during your sophomore year and you don't need to take this biology course."

I couldn't believe this. This happened to a girl yesterday afternoon during this same class and now it's me. "Does this have anything to do with me having Ms. Gylock as a science teacher last semester?"

"Yes" she said. "you took biology with her, am I correct?

"Mhm."

"Well, thanks to her…your one of her few juniors from her former class to be taking a higher level this year."

"Oh…" cool I thought.

"So take this slip…and hand it your new teacher, he will be expecting you."

"Okay…um now?" I asked kind of awkwardly.

"Yes…now."

I sighed while walking back to my table and humming that old Tupac song in my head. 'all eyez on me' since the whole class seemed to have taken a sudden interest in me.

Mike furrowed his eyebrows while looking up at me, "Oh no" he gasped. "not you too! The bitch is taking you away, isn't she?"

I nodded while silently packing up.

"What is this some kind of invasion? First it was Heidi, and now you." he whispered.

"…yeah." I said casually "but brace yourself, cause your next." I whispered "there picking alot of people from our old science class…so"

His eyes widened. "you serious?"

I nodded as I slung my tote bag onto a shoulder. "I guess I'll see you at lunch, then?"

"Yeah, cool. If anything we'll catch up after school."

"Cool."

I waved to the teacher before exiting to the empty halls. It was just me and that the chubby security guard who was wondering around, looking through the already full bulletin board.

Great. I thought…Just what I needed, starting over. I was already comfortable in my small class, with some familiar faces and Mike as my buddy; but now I was going to have to be in a new room, full of stupid students developing fucking senioritis, and probably thinking that there soo cool, in their 'I don't give a phuck' attitude.

After quickly going up the stairs and nervously walking through the unfamiliar halls while exchanging glances from the slip of the paper to the room numbers on the doors.

Rm 324.

I recognized the dark haired man inside wearing a pair of glasses while facing the classroom. He was wearing a dark blue vest over some gray shirt and a pair of black slacks.

I took a deep breath before carefully opening the large door and heading towards the man. The whole room was quiet and once again, all eyes were on me while I forced a smile as I headed towards the the teacher in the middle of the room.

I didn't feel the need to talk since he seemed to know exactly why I was here, so I just handed him the slip.

"Junior?" he asked while looking through it.

"Yeah." I said.

"Ah…I see, are you Miss. Isabella Swan?"

I nodded, "just Bella though…I prefer Bella."

He smiled, "okay…Bella…I'm Mr. Banner, welcome to Chemistry…I hope you know that this course will be much more difficult since it's intended for seniors…"

I nodded while listening to his words.

"Good. Now take a seat on any available chair over in the last row."

"Okay, thanks."

I turned to face the class and noticed how everyone was still staring at me. I honestly never felt so out of place, some guys were gawking while some girls were taking note of what I was wearing…ugh

I took some quick and unsteady steps towards the last row where in the second table I noticed Edward looking directly at me. I held back a smile and watched how he patted the empty seat next to him while flashing me that annoying yet killer lopsided smile.

Quickly, I joined him and playfully rolled my eyes. While I took off my stuff and started settling down the teacher began to talk.

"Guys, lets welcome our new student in class, she's the first junior to join us today" Mr. Banner said as some students started to murmur while glancing over to me "oh, and just so you know…" he added. "science its obviously her thing so you all better step your game up since your all seniors and would want to make a good impression. She's already in our level so don't treat her any different..."

Everyone continued to murmur and giggle while I looked down, feeling my cheeks slightly flush. They could bet their asses that I'm good at this. I thought…

"So…" Edward said, while playfully shoving my shoulder "this is new."

"Yeah, I know" I said while looking up into his intense green eyes. As much as I wanted to kiss him right that moment, I had to try to control myself and pretend that we were nothing but friends. I mean he clearly made that point only two hours ago when he and Tanya kissed.

"So…" I casually said. "I guess were partners for the next few months...you must be so excited, huh?"

He scrunched his nose while looking away "more like annoyed. I see you like every minute of the day and when I finally have a break from seeing you during my classes, you appear in my favorite class."

I gasped. "that hurts my feelings, Edward, I thought you were my friend."

He laughed while I pretended to look hurt. But the truth was, that I was excited. It was every girl's dream to sit right next to their crush, and now I had that chance. I had the advantage of working my charms more easily, and though he didn't like me, I was still sure that he was attracted to me. There was something about the way he looks at me that shows how his feelings have changed towards me.

And now that we were in a same class, I had more time to show him what I got...mayb it will change his mind...

Ookay, next chapter would still take place in the chemistry class, and I promise to add some jealousy ;)
