Thank You! Ok this chapter has to be uber long and action-packed. You can expect a new chapter every other week or every week depending on my mood. If someone rele pisses me off you might even be lucky enough to get 2 a week (but don't count on it) moving on.

Doug: thanks T :)

OMG I'm soo uber pissed because boys like girls is playing in Maryland with self against city another band I totally love and I can't go!!!

Disclaimer: don't own anything, not even blg concert tickets!

I was nervous. Even Doug holding my hand and telling me everything was going to be fine and that I was too strong to break down, wasn't helping. I was pushing it.

I mean, I wasn't like regular vampires that's for sure I didn't crave blood like I thought I would. Usually I didn't even feel thirsty when Doug and Amberly went hunting. Still, I had hunted twice as usual the week before school.

As we pulled up into the parking lot I began to relax, there were tons of humans walking into the high school yet I could barely feel the itchy sensation in the back of my throat that meant I was hungry.

I got out of the car and over to the passenger side Doug grabbed my hand in his and we were off to the front office.

I was only expecting a few stares since, after all we were "new kids" but it seemed as though everyone in the hall was looking at us. To my left I could here someone saying

"Isn't there another group of new kids coming? There are four of them I think. Sammie said they all look like models." Thank god there were more people here to stare at I didn't like it if I was the new shiny toy for the humans to talk about.

"Bella are you ok?" Amberly said in my ear "How are you doing so far?" she was talking to low for the gawking humans to hear.

"I'm good; it's surprisingly easier than I thought it would be." I answered back just as fast and low. I tightened my grip on Doug's hand as a guy with a scraped knee walked past us. "But its still hard."

Finally we got to the office and got our schedules. I had two classes with Doug and the other two with Amberly. We all had third lunch, thank God for that. My first class was with Doug.

Amberly, much to her dismay, had gym first.

"Oh my God remind my why we go to school again. We could so fake nineteen and get jobs somewhere." She whined

"We do this so we can stay in one place for a longer amount of time. Also because I like watching you squirm." Doug smiled at her while Amberly, very maturely stuck out her tongue.

"I just hope you know, I hate you very much. See you at lunch Bell, love ya!" and with that she was gone. Doug and I made our way too our first class biology. A shiver ran down my spine when I thought about my biology class in forks.

"Hey are you ok?" Doug asked sensing something was wrong. I nodded my head and we stepped through the door.

Surprisingly, no one was in the room, not even a teacher. So Doug and I took two seats next to each other in the back of the room.. "I can't believe the days not even halfway done and I'm tiered"

I scooted my chair closer to him and rested my head on his shoulder, closing my eyes. This felt nice just sitting here alone. I picked my head off his shoulder and looked into his eyes. "Thank you." I said just thank you nothing else. He inched his face closer to mine and my eyelids fluttered closed.

Just then the classroom door opened and I had my head in my hands, too embarrassed to look up at whoever had walked through the door.

"Ummm… hi." Doug said nervously. I could hear and smell the people coming in the room. He chuckled when he looked down at me.

"Bella its ok, the only person that saw us was the guy that walked in the door." Still I had a hard time taking my head out of my hands. By the time I had everyone was sitting down and the teacher had come in looking rather annoyed.


Thank God it was lunchtime and I could relax a little. The day so far had gone by well. We picked a table in a quiet corner of the cafeteria. Amberly looked a little frazzled after she came back from first period, but I just brushed it off as being miffed about gym.

"So how has your day been so far Bella?" Amberly seemed a little too cheerful, like she was hiding something, something important. "I have good news, and tonight is girl's night! So we need a bunch of sappy movies!"

Suddenly I could smell something familiar, but what was it. It smelled so good. Amberly had focused her attention elsewhere so I wasn't in danger of offending her.

"Bella? Bella?" Doug was trying to get my attention "Do you know that guy over there because the way he's looking at you is kinda makes me want to punch him." I looked over but no one was there.

"What guy Doug?" I was starting to think he might be seeing things.

"I swear there was a guy right there!" he pouting again. He looked so cute when he did that. His messy blonde hair falling into his eyes a little.

"Of course I believe you." He noticed the tone of sarcasm in my voice and took my hand in his.

"Fine don't believe me" But the tone in his voice told me he was joking. I heard him utter a low growl and look over in the direction where the mysterious 'guy' had been.

We talked a little more about an upcoming hunting trip and our plans for this weekend and I got more and more comfortable around the humans. But as soon as it came, lunch was over. We got up to throw array our trays of uneaten food and headed back to our grueling 85 minute classes.


Amberly and I had just finished watching a bunch of sappy movies when she turned to look at me. Now I don't mean just look at me, I mean really look at me. As if she was trying to make sure that I could handle whatever it was that she was about to say. Finally after the staring thing was kinda getting creepy she sighed and started to speak.

"Ok so I told you before that I had to tell you something." She said hesitantly

"Yes you did." I was starting to get scared, Amberly never acted like this something had to be wrong. She hesitated before looking up at me, "well are you going to tell me or not?"

"Ok, ok geez hold your horses" she said "I just don't what to outright tell you, you know seeing how the whole Barbaro thing went"

"Hey! That's not funny! It's a sad story ok!" she was referring to the day when a horse, Barbaro who competed in the Kentucky Derby had almost broken his leg and was still recovering. "Can you just tell me already!"

"Ok are you sure you're ready?" this question was met with a lethal glare from me. "well when I went to that horrible place you and Doug call gym there were three girls talking in the hallway." She stopped again to gauge my reaction.

"Yea got it three human girls talking. Let me alert the media." She shot me a glare and took a deep breath before continuing.

"No Bella Not human, vampire. They were vampires." I didn't see how this affected us all that much. I mean sure we would have to have a talk with their coven and see if they were 'vegetarians' or not, but that was pretty much the extent of it. "Their coming over in the morning and we'll discuss hunting and things like that then."

Amberly, having been born in the late 1890's was our 'leader'. Though she loved having fun and joking around, when she needed to protect someone or get serious. Nothing could stop her, and I mean nothing.

"I don't know if their vegetarians or not, they all had brown contacts on. So we have to be open-minded about this, but if they aren't vegetarians they can't hunt around here, we can't risk it." She looked at me again and I nodded.

It didn't matter all that much to me, I could protect our family with my power if needed we were in no danger there.

"Well I'm going to go take a shower before they get here" I ran up the stair at vampire speed. Why did Amberly think I was going to be so shocked by the new group of vampires? I mean just this summer we had 4 newly changed vampires staying with us? I pondered this as I got into the shower.

The water felt warm and relaxing and the familiar smell of my shampoo calmed me. she was probably just overreacting, Amberly was like my best friend, my older sister and my mom all rolled into one slap-happy package. The water began to run cold so I grabbed a towel off the rack and headed back to my room.

By the time I had gotten dressed, dried my hair, and put one of my shoes on the doorbell rang. Of course I was in the middle off pulling the second one on and the doorbell startled me, causing me to fall over. The thud echoed through the house and I laughed at my clumsiness.

I ran down the stairs to the living room where Doug was waiting and took my spot next to him.

"Did you get a nice bruise there?" he snickered I looked at him with the most spiteful glare I could manage while still laughing at myself.

"Oh shut up Mr., you do know that when you sing in the shower both Amberly and I can hear you?" if he were human his face would have been as red as his polo.

"Well Bella I'm not the only one who can't sing in the shower." Now my face was actually as red as his shirt, but wait that could only happen if Amberly wanted it to.

I looked across the room and sure enough there was Amberly. "well if you two are tired of arguing like a married couple, we should get started."

But Amberly was not alone the entire Cullen family plus one new stranger were behind her.

Even Edward.
