Chapter 10:

Edward POV:

Beep Beep Beep

I woke up to that dreadful noise. Today is my first day of school. I will know nobody, except Alice. That name brought a smile to my face. With my inspiration in mind I got up and jumped in the shower. When I finished I hopped back out, put a towel around me and tried to find something to wear. Causal but sophisticated, I thought to myself. I picked out a pair of dark wash jeans with a black button up shirt. I left the first few buttons unbuttoned so I don't look like a nerd. I put a little gel in my hair and went downstairs.

"I'm making your breakfast right now honey," Esme yelled to me. I entered the kitchen and kissed her cheek.

"Thanks mom smells great." She replied with a smile.

I went and retrieved my backpack from my room and ran back downstairs. I went in the garage and turned on my beautiful car. (A/n: Picture of car on profile)I laid my backpack on the passenger seat and walked back inside. Pancakes and bacon was lying on the table when I returned. I took out my cell phone and checked the time. I had 15 minutes till school started. I gulped down my breakfast and hugged my mom.

"Thanks for breakfast. See you after school." I smiled at her and walked towards the garage.

"Your welcome sweetie, have a great day," I heard her yell.

I got in my car, opened the garage, and started down the road. Central High School was 7 minutes away from my house. I turned on some classical music and enjoyed the ride. When I arrived I noticed I had one of the nicest cars in the lot. I smiled to myself. I never really liked being the center of attention but in this situation I was okay with it. I turned off my car, grabbed my backpack and opened the door. I looked up at the school. It was huge. It had brown and white bricks and three huge flag poles in the front(A/n: Picture of school on profile).While walking to the office I noticed a lot of kids looking at me. Of course, the new kid stares. I entered the office and was faced with a lady that looked about in her late 40s.

"Hi," I glanced at her name plate, "Mrs. Dubose, I'm Edward Cullen." I said politely as I could. She looked up and jumped in her chair.

"Oh, Well…Wow." I sighed; I usually got this reaction out of girls my age, not Esme's age. I laughed internally. I held back the urged to roll my eyes.

"Your doctor Cullen's son aren't you?" She asked a little breathlessly.

"Yes I am," I replied. She looked through a pile of papers and finally found what she was looking for.

"Here's your schedule. Have your teachers sign this paper. Have a great day, Mr. Cullen." I gave her a smile then left the office.

1st: English

2nd: Music

Lunch

4th: Biology

5th: Calculus

6th: PE

All I thought was, I hope I have some classes with Alice. Speaking of her, I haven't seen her yet. I looked up and tried to spot a black-haired pixie. Finally I found her. It looked like she was screaming at some guy. He had black hair and I couldn't see the color of his eyes. She threw her hands up in the air and stalked off. Wow, she looked pissed, I thought. The guy just stood there, stunned. I better give her some time to cool down before I approach her. I walked towards the English room. On the way I kept getting flirtatious smiles from some of the girls. I held back the urge to roll my eyes, again. I walked in the classroom and walked over to the teacher. He was working on something on his computer.

"Excuse me?" He looked over at me and smiled. "I'm Edward Cullen, I'm new here."

Realization hit his eyes. "Oh, you are doctor Cullen's boy aren't ya?"

"Yes I am," I replied. I hope I wouldn't hear that same question all day.

"Great. Well I am Mr. Davis and your desk will be right…there." He pointed at an empty desk in the back of the classroom.

I looked around. I was the only one in here. I still had 3 minutes till school started. I sat down and doodled in my notebook. My mind kept going back to Alice. She looked pretty pissed at that guy, I wonder if that was her boyfriend. I had to find out. I looked around again. Two guys were sitting in there desk and a very familiar girl was approaching me.

"Hi Edward."

I smiled at her and looked around the class room again.

"Don't you remember me? I'm your neighbor…Jessica."

Oh yeah I remember her. She wanted to "get to know me better".

"Oh yeah, hey Jessica, how are you?"

She might be a little weird, but I still want to be a gentleman.

"I'm awesome. I went shopping yesterday and bought these new shoes. They have pink and white…" I tuned her out.

I then saw a girl walk in. She was beautiful. She reminded me of Alice. She had long blond wavy hair that went down to her hip. She had bright blue eyes, like Alice's. But when you looked into them they were filled with sadness... I wonder why. She wore a baggy sweatshirt and loose jeans. Wow, that was different. She looked like the kind who wore designer clothes. I wonder what was wrong with her. Jessica turned her head to see what I was looking at.

"That's Rosalie McCarthy." I could tell Jessica didn't like that I wasn't paying attention to her. I was still staring at the girl. Rosalie. "Her sister is Alice." My head shot up.

"Alice? The one with black hair and a little short?" I asked, my voice filled with hope. She sighed. She finally found a subject I was interested in and she didn't like it. Rosalie took her seat, which was the desk on my right.

"Yeah, but she's more like a little short freak that dances around people. Totally the opposite of her sister," Jessica said her voice at a whisper so Rosalie wouldn't hear, but she didn't look like she could hear anything.

She was in her own little world. I wondered why that was. Alice seemed so bubbly, happy and open. Rosalie seemed so sad, gloomy and wouldn't open up to anyone. I was just about to ask her about Alice but we had to turn our attention to the teacher. Jessica walked to her seat which was right in front of me, great (heavy sarcasm there).

"Hello class, today we will review the homework I gave you last night. You have a test tomorrow so I would pay attention if I were you."

I looked over at Rosalie. She was doodling in her notebook. She didn't have any make-up on. Her right cheek looked a little swollen and red. I wonder if anyone else noticed this. She saw me watching her; she gave me a glare then put her head down. I turned my attention back to the teacher. He was calling on people to answer questions from the homework.

"What is the answer to question number 7?... Rosalie." I looked at her again. She didn't budge. I lightly tapped her shoulder. She flinched and it sounded like a muffled... hiss? She looked up at me. I nodded my head towards the teacher.

"What was the question?" She whispered. Her voice sounded so broken.

"What is the answer to question number 7 on your homework." Mr. Davis stated.

I heard a kid to her right whisper the answer to her.

"False," she said a little louder this time.

She gave the kid a grateful smile then put her head back down.

"Good."

The rest of the class I was thinking about Rosalie and Alice. Why Rosalie was so broken and sad and if Alice had a boyfriend.

When the bell rang I gathered my stuff, had the teacher sign my slip and then walked towards the door. Before I walked out of the classroom I glanced one last time at Rosalie. She picked up her books and had a pained look on her face, she met my look, her eyes widened and she smiled. She, obviously, didn't want me to see that. I walked down the hall and tried to find my music class. I looked down at my schedule. Where the heck is room 1b?! All of a sudden I ran into someone. It just happened to be the one little pixie I always run into, literally.

"Hey Edward!" Her voice sounded a little sadder then the last time I talked to her, but it still had a happy side to it.

"Hey Alice!" I replied a little too enthusiastically.

"What are you looking for? You look a little confused," She asked while coming over and looking at my schedule.

A smile appeared on my face, noticing how close we are, her shoulder was barely touching my arm.

"The music room," I told her, pointing to it.

"Oh, that's where I am going right now. We can walk together," she smiled at me.

"'kay," I replied.

"Well first of all you were going the wrong," she giggled.

"It's not my fault it's my first day here," I joked.

She shook her head and started walking. I followed her.

"So how is your first day going?" She asked. I thought of her sister. Should I ask about her? I will bring it up causally, I decided.

"Good. Jessica is in my class first period class...and your sister." I looked over at her. Her eyes widened a little and her stride got faster. She didn't meet my gaze.

"Oh." Was her reply.

She obviously didn't want to tell me anything about her sister. I decided to drop it.

"So, since we are walking to music class, what do you play?" I asked, trying to change the subject. Her face lit up again and she looked at me.

"I don't play anything, I sing." I bet she is a good singer. Her voice is already beautiful.

"What about you?" We were now nearing a door.

"I play the piano. Is this the room?"

"You do! That's awesome." She looked at the door. "Yup."

I sped my stride up a little and opened the door for her.

"Thanks."

We walked inside. I stopped and examined the room. It was huge! It had three pianos by the wall and every other instrument you can imagine. Alice walked back over to me and grabbed my hand. I smiled. She led us over to two desks in the front. We both sat down and a girl came up to her.

"Hey Tanya." Alice said. She did not like this girl. I could tell by the way she said her name. She made it sound like it was a bad word.

"Hey Alice. Who is your friend?" She asked while eying me.

"Tanya this is Edward. Edward this is Tanya." Alice said in a monotone voice. I laughed internally.

I extended my hand and she took it, holding it longer then necessary. I let hers go first and faked a smile. She came over and took the desk next to me. She was just about to start a conversation with me but the teacher came in and cut her off.

"Welcome to class, today I'm just going to talk about the basics of music. Feel free to take notes." He smiled at us and then began his lecture. About 15 minutes spent of him taking, Alice passed me a note. I knew I should listen to the teacher and read the note after class but curiosity got the best of me. I unfolded it.

Do you want to sit by me at lunch?

The beautiful script read. I took out my pencil and replied back.

If you want me to.

I passed it back while the teacher wasn't looking. She read it, wrote something, and then passed it back.

Well considering it is your first day and you don't know anybody, then I would love if you sat by me.

I let out a chuckle and wrote back.

Well thank you for your kindness towards the new kid.

I passed it to her, she read it, and then suppressed a giggle. While she was thinking of what to reply back, I noticed Tanya glaring at us. She then realized she had been caught and gave me a flirtatious smile. I gave her a fake smile back then felt a note slid under my arm. It read:

Ha! You're just lucky.

I smiled and looked at her. She smiled back. I felt confident so I decided I would ask her about that guy she was yelling at this morning. I tried to think of the best way to say this casually. After a few seconds I gave up and decided to be blunt about it.

So I saw you this morning arguing with some guy. What was that about?

After I passed it back I then felt like I was being a little nosy. That's her business. She doesn't need to tell me about it. I looked over and saw her writing swiftly. That relaxed me a little. She passed the note back to me and smiled.

Oh you saw that. Ha! Well that was my boyfriend, well ex-boyfriend now. I caught him kissing some girl in his car yesterday and so I told him about it (not very nicely, of course).

That explains her dreary mood today. I gave her an apologetic smile. She smiled back.

Well, I'm sorry to hear about that. You didn't have to tell me. I don't want you thinking I was nosy or something. Do you want me to go beat him up?

I passed her the note. I couldn't tell if I was being serious or funny on that last part. She thought I was being funny by her giggling. She wrote back and swiftly put it on my desk.

Ha! That would be very pleasurable to watch but no it's okay. So do you do any sports? Basketball try-outs are today.

I let the subject drop. Basketball… I was on the varsity team back in Chicago. I guess it would give me something to do.

Yeah, I played basketball back in Chicago. What time are the try-outs at?

I passed it back to her. I tried to listen to what Mr. Bayberry was talking about.

"The scale goes a, b, c, d, e, f, and g. Now you have to add some sharps and flats in there also."

Ah, scales. I knew those backwards and forwards. I felt a piece of paper slid under my arm, again.

They are in the main gym at 3:15.

That will give me time to go home and get changed. Perfect.

Sweet. Thanks, I will be there. Are the sports good here?

I passed it back. Back in Chicago our team was pretty good, but not state champion material. I played center most of the time. My coach told me I was fast and good at throwing three pointers. Alice put the note on top of my arm this time.

Our basketball team is pretty good. They won state champions 2 years ago. They are the only sports team at our school to win state.

After I finished reading the note, the bell rang. That class went pretty quick. I shoved the note in my back pocket and gathered my stuff together. I quickly walked over to the teacher and got that slip signed. Alice and I walked to the cafeteria in silence. We both got in line and bought our lunches.

"So where do we sit oh kind one?" I joked, going back to our note earlier.

"Well, since I am so nice and kind, and letting you sit with me," she smiled at me, "We will sit right here." She said while setting her tray down at an empty table.

"Okay not to be rude Alice but… don't you sit with anyone?" I asked while taking the seat next to her.

She rolled her eyes. "My sister and her boyfriend will be here soon."

My mind went back to Rosalie. She didn't seem to like me very much. Well, this will be interesting.

"Do you do any sports Alice?" I inquired while taking a bite of my pizza.

Her eyes lit up. "Soccer."

"Ah, you're a little field fairy," I joked with her. But actually it was true. She was on a field and she did resemble a fairy.

"Haha, you're so funny," She replied sarcastically.

Right then Rosalie and some guy sat down. I guess he was her boyfriend. He had brown hair that was a little longer then mine with brown eyes. He looked very husky. He must work out a lot or played football or something.

"Guys this is Edward. Edward this is Rosalie and Jacob."

Rosalie looked up at me and gave me a look. I couldn't really tell what that look meant. It was between fear and… hopefulness? I don't know where that second one came from. Jacob gave me a look of pure evil. He did not look nice at all. I smiled back at them and continued eating my lunch. Rosalie and Jacob quietly chatted to one another. I couldn't make out what they were saying.

When lunch was over Alice and I parted. She had calculus. I walked in the biology room. I approached the teacher and told him my name and that I was new. He pointed to an empty table. Most of the students were in here. I wondered if I had a lab partner. Then right before the bell rang Jacob ran in and took his spot next to me. Of course out of all people Jacob had to be my partner. When he got settled he finally noticed my presence. He gave me a glare and focused on the teacher. The whole period Mr. Banner talked about frog insides. I guess we would be dissected them tomorrow. Great, that means I will have to work with my wonderful lab partner. I rolled my eyes internally. When biology was finished, I got my slip signed and headed towards Calculus. I knew didn't know anybody in that class. We worked on graphing and f(x)dx=f(b)-f(a). It was all too easy to me. The bell rang and I got my slip signed. I walked out and headed to my last class of the day, PE. I strolled towards the locker room. I received shorts and a white t-shirt from the PE teacher. I got dressed down and walked out. I spotted a familiar pixie running my way.

"You're in this class!" She said while bouncing up in down.

"No, I'm just standing in this class and dressed down," I replied sarcastically.

She rolled her eyes, "smart ass," she muttered and walked away.

I caught up to her and we both started to laugh.

"Okay class, today we will be playing basketball."

I smiled to myself, time to show off in front of Alice.

Mr. Marion separated us into teams. It was guys against guys and girls against girls. The girls sat out first.

My team ended up with possession of the ball. A guy named, Keith I remembered, dribbled the ball down the court. I ran to the three point line to try and get open. He passed me and I shot it. It went straight in. A few of my team members came over and patted me on the back. I looked at Alice. When she looked at me I raised my eyebrows and smiled. She rolled her eyes and went back to talking to a girl sitting next to her. This went on for the rest of the class. Me shooting most of the baskets (and making them) then seeing Alice's reaction. She either rolled her eyes or smiled or both. Our game took all of the class period. We ended up winning.

"Nice game Edward." I heard a couple guys say to me. I thanked them.

"You better go out for the basketball team." I heard Keith say while coming up to me.

"Yeah I am. Try- Outs are today after school right?" I asked, making sure.

"Yup. See you there," he said, and walked over to talk to some of the girls.

"The girls will play their game tomorrow, go get changed." Mr. Marion yelled.

Some of the girls groaned and the guys laughed.

"I forgot to tell you I play basketball to." Alice whispered in my ear causing me to shiver. Then she skipped off towards the girls' locker room. She played basketball? I would love to see that.

I got changed and walked over to the girls' locker room. I stood there and waited for Alice. 10 minutes later she finally came out.

"What took you so freaking long!?" I yelled at her.

She smiled, with amusement in her eyes.

"Well when you want to look this good," she waved a hand in front of herself, "then it takes time."

I cracked a smile and rolled my eyes.

We walked out to the parking lot.

"Hey, do you want me to show you around town today?" Alice asked, heading towards her car which was a yellow Lexus (A/n: Picture of car on profile).

"I can't. Remember, basketball try-outs." I said while tapping my head.

"Well excuueee…mee." She said sarcastically. She seems to do that a lot.

She opened her car door.

"See you tomorrow Edward."

"Bye Alice." I gave her a crooked smile and she closed her door. I walked towards my car. She drove off and was out of my sight. I sighed and smiled. I felt like a love-struck teenager. Well maybe because I am.

When I got home I got my basketball stuff together, put it in my bag, got a water bottle, and then headed towards the school again. I entered the gym and found lots of guys warming up. I put my stuff down and joined them. I spotted one guy in particular. Jacob.

"Everyone trying out for basketball sit on the bleachers." The coach said while walking in. Everyone obeyed the coach.

"This is how it is going to work. I will tell you what to do, you will do it. Then I will post the teams on the door. Got it?" His voice rang with authority.

"Got it." We all replied.

"Good. Now everyone run 5 laps."

We all got up and started the dreadful day of try-outs.


A/n: How did you like Edward's POV again?? It will talk more about Rosalie in upcoming chapters. Can anyone guess what is wrong with her?? And yes Jacob is Jacob Black. I hate him so if anyone is team Jacob, I'm sorry. Haha

Also I don't know anything about basketball so sorry if it sounds all wrong. I can just picture human Edward playing basketball.

REVIEW!!!! The more reviews the faster I type!!!
