Chapter 10

Bella's pov

The next morning, I was in the most peaceful sleep ever then a loud ringing started to go off. I moved my hand around trying to find the damn thing, but where ever I it was I couldn't reach it. I covered my head with my pillow to at least try and drown out the noisy ringing sound. Just when I was getting back to sleep, something heavy landed on me. I kicked at it trying to get it to move off of me, but it wouldn't get off me.

"Wake the hell up Bella!" Then I was being bounced on, making me groan loudly. I woke up then to see Mikey on me, smiling innocently. Shoving her off me and onto the floor, I sat up in bed and stretched, yawning.

"Happy now Mikey, I'm wake." I sat there for a few minutes, waking up fully enough to get out of bed. Once I made my way out of bed I headed into the bathroom for my turn in the shower. Nessa was in there doing her hair and makeup in front of the mirror. She looked at me front the mirror, shaking her head. Usually I'm the one awake the earliest but I was so tired last night, I just decided to sleep a little longer. I turned the shower on, got it really steaming hot and started to undress, throwing my pjs into the clothes hamper that was sitting in the corner of the bathroom. I got under the water, washing every inch of my body, shaved then washed my hair. I stood under the water awhile, relaxing my muscles and waking up more. Once down, I stepped out, wrapped my towel around my hair and body making my way back into our bedroom. Only person in the room was Tanessa, Mikey probably went to make us breakfast.

"Dad already left for work this morning. Left a note, saying he'll be working late tonight. Said to not bother making dinner for him, just enough for us." She told me, fixing her plaid t-shirt and tank top that was underneath it.

"Well that's good to know." I laughed slightly, making her laugh along with me. I got dressed after that with a matching bra and underwear set, a pair of washed out jeans with a few holes in them and a t-shirt. I slipped on my sneakers and jacket. Leaving my hair down to air dry, I walked down stairs with Nessa behind me. When we got into the kitchen, Mikaia was just finished making us all breakfast. I looked over at the clock on the stove; it was almost 7:30 so we had time to eat.

After we ate our breakfast, Nessa and I cleaned up then was all headed out to the truck. We crammed into the cab of the Chevy, with our bags in the passenger floorboard. When everything was settled, I drove us to our first day at school.

"This is going to be much fun!" Mikey was too damn happy and bouncy for her own good. It's just school for crying out loud, there's nothing fun about it. She's just excited to see who will think she's attractive and probably use her, or try to use her. We had gone to the office to get our schedules when we arrived, looking them over we saw that we only had three classes together; Calculus, British Literature and Physical Education; which I really hated but it is a requirement so I can't change it.

"Well speak for yourself Mikey; it won't be long before I get in a fight with someone." Nessa said, looking at Mikaia.

"Well okay, I get your point but try really hard not to get suspended from school this time. We only have 4 months before we get out of this place Tanessa, so don't get into trouble." Mikaia gave Tanessa a side hug and grinned widely.

"I'll try, but no promises."

"That's all I'm hoping for."

"Well looks like it's about time for class, we should be heading that way, so I'll see you two in Calculus." I said to them, they nodded and we separated to our correct classrooms. But then I got really lost, even looking at the school map the office gave me it was still confusing. I was walking around aimlessly for 5 minutes before I bumped into someone.

"I am so sorry." I quickly apologized.

"Hey no harm done, right?" He smiled at me, and then reached out his hand towards me. "You must be Mikaia Swan, right?"

"No it's Isabella Swan, Bella for short, Mikaia is my identical sister. So is Tanessa Swan if you meet her sometime later." I shake his hand quickly. "At our old school, the kids there would call us the Swan Triplets."

"That's so cool. Well I'm sorry for calling you your sister's name. I just knew some new students were coming to Forks and I thought you all were cousins, not sisters." He gave an apologetic smile. "And I'm Eric."

"Oh its fine really, most people get us all mixed up anyways. We're used to it."

"Yes… Well..." He stammered. "Where are you headed off first?"

I checked my schedule a quick second. "Um, Business, with Mrs. Colleens."

"Prefect, I'm just heading that way myself, I'll show you." Following after him, he started walking down a hallway that I just came from. We passed a window and I notices that it started pouring down rain. I have never seen so much rain in my life, even when I lived here when I was younger. I guess Eric noticed me looking outside. "It's very different than where you're from, isn't it?"

"Very different, in Phoenix it only rains four or five times a year at most."

"Wow… And any other time?"

"Sunny and hot."

"Well you'll get used to the weather here, trust me." He said sarcastically and walked into Mrs. Colleens' room. Well damn, I passed this room like twice. He went straight to his seat and sat down. I walked up to Mrs. Colleens, handing her my slip she needed to sign. Afterwards, she told me to just pick an empty seat and I went to the seat in the back of the room.

The class bell rang and the school day had started. It was going to be a long day.
