Hey, everyone updates a bit late. I know. Sorry. Anyway, I badly sprained my ankle and I'm not at school today, so I'm able to write this. I can barely walk on it. Stupid PE! No matter, someone mentioned in a review that I had some things wrong, the time of the introduction of Alice and jasper, etc. Thank you for the help. But I've mentioned this before. I'm changing some things to better fit in with the story. Some things will be different, but I've changed them on purpose, okay? Enjoy the chap.

Disclaimer: twilight belongs to SM. I swear. Edward told me himself. And who wouldn't believe Edward? Don't say you wouldn't, because if you did, you'd be …… A LIAR! A LIAR I TELL YOU!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm not nuts, I swear it, I just have a very, um, unique, yeah that's it, personality. (Same as last time I know, but I've been typing for ages and couldn't be bothered to type another one.)

Ooh I so recommend this song can't stop listening to it:

BPOV

When we arrived in forks, it was raining. No surprises there. It's not exactly as if we, as vampires, can live in sun traps. Though I do miss the sensation of the sun's rays on my face. But I doubt that it was completely worth exposing us for what we really were. Yeah, not so much.

The house, of course, was beautiful and grand. As if I would expect anything less of Esme. When everything was unpacked, it was time to go and enrol in high school. Here we go again, I thought to myself. Alice of course was nothing less than a little ball of energy and enthusiasm. Damn pixie. I wondered how positive she would be after all the girls had begun throwing themselves at Jasper, pretending that she didn't exist. The thought made me happy in a strange way. Maybe this was going to be fun after all. I would finally have someone with whom to share my pain. Stupid, vapid girls falling all over my Edward. Maybe we could plan revenge on them together. Wait, WHAT? What did I just think? Edward wasn't mine. He was just my best friend. Wasn't he?

So we arrived at the local high school, entered the office and saw that it was a female receptionist. Great, I thought to myself. It actually surprised me that even my thoughts could be dripping with sarcasm. Anyway, I knew that there was going to be trouble. She, of course, looked up. Saw jasper and Edward and gawked at them with stars in her eyes. Which was disgusting, seeing as how she was old enough to be our mother, or the mother of someone the age which we looked. I think. Oh, it doesn't matter! I wouldn't have her looking at Edward like that! What? What in goodness's name was wrong with me!?

Alice didn't seem to particularly appreciate the way she was gazing at jasper, if the way she latched herself onto his arm was any indication. Edward cleared his throat, loudly. I wouldn't imagine that her thoughts were all that pleasant either, to be honest. 'Hello,' he began politely. She gazed at him with a star struck expression. I decided that I did not like her very much. 'My name is Edward mason. This is my sister, Alice mason. And this is my girlfriend, Bella Whitlock and her brother Jasper Whitlock.' We would like to register.' The receptionist seemed to deflate slightly when she heard that Edward was 'taken'. Not completely though, seeing as how she continued to flutter her eyelashes at him. Correction, I didn't just dislike her, I hated her with a passion.

'Here are the necessary papers for you to fill out,' she said as she handed them to Edward with a flirtatious smile. I glared at her. Jasper looked at me in surprise. Oh, shit, empath! Right, I forgot. Simmer down, bella, I told myself. Simmer down. It's not like he'd even be interested in her anyway. It doesn't matter! Stupid brain!

As the two conflicting sides of my brain argued with one another, the others sorted out the necessary paper-work and we were finally allowed to leave. We got home and Edward suggested that we hunt, to keep up our strength. For this I was grateful, it would help me clear my head. We didn't have to go far, but the fresh animal blood was all I needed to clear the fog that had seemed to encase my mind over the last few days. I was able to spend the rest of the day doing normal things, such as listening to Edward playing the piano, talking with Edward and reading books.

The next morning, Alice insisted upon dressing me for the first day of school. And Edward, and jasper, and of course herself. It seemed that she was quite the fashion deviant. Fashion had changed considerably over the years since I had been technically alive. As was to be expected. Though I hadn't noticed just quite how much it had changed. I'd never really taken that much of an interest in fashion, even n my human life. The 1960's had just began and it seemed that it was to be all about short dresses in kaleidoscopes of colour and hair in tight buns. Strange.

We arrived at school to the gasps that were now to be expected. How I wished that we could simply fade into the background. Of course, forks was an extremely small town so there was even less chance of that than there might have been in a larger area. We were, to put it bluntly, screwed.

First lesson, indicator of the days and years to come. I was sat next to a snivelling man-boy with greasy hair, whose thoughts had Edward's fists curling in fury. Here we go again, I thought. He extended his filthy hand towards me and said in a not yet broken voice, 'Hello, my name is Paul.' He looked me up and down hungrily. I repressed the urge to gag. 'I'm bella,' I said shortly, in a voice that said, I'm not interested. I hoped to god that he would take the hint. It seemed that these human males were mostly extremely dim. Strangely enough, he did seem to take it. The hint, I mean. If the fact that he left me alone for the rest of the class and didn't bother me for the rest of the day was any indication.

Attending high school is tiresome. When the teachers are wrong and you correct them, they become indignant. When the students try to catch your attention, and you ignore them, they accuse you of being 'stuck up'. By the end of the day, I was mentally exhausted. We all were. Even Alice seemed to have lost some of her enthusiasm. I felt extremely sympathetic towards Edward and jasper. Edward had to listen to their thoughts and jasper had to feel their emotions. I could not, for the life of me, decide which was worse to be quite honest.

We were all simply sitting in the living room when it happened. Alice suddenly stiffened and her eyes went blank. I had come to recognise this as her 'vision' face. She was having a vision. She was out of it for many minutes. Jasper was becoming frantic. I was worried for my friend. Finally, after half an hour, she came back to us. When she did, her eyes had lit up like a child's on Christmas morning. She bounced around the room cheering and laughing. 'I knew it, I knew it, I knew it!' she chanted incessantly. Alice could be VERY annoying when she wanted to. 'What is it Alice?' jasper asked calmly. He put up a good façade. 'What did you see?' Alice glanced around the room and seemed to realise for the first time that there were others in the room. Then she clamped her mouth shut as tightly as possible. Well, I thought to myself, that's a first.

We continued to attempt to force Alice to tell us what she saw, but she refused every time. She blocked her mind to Edward and even refused to tell jasper, her mate. He didn't show it, but I knew that this hurt him. Edward was completely frustrated. Whenever he was around, she simply thought about things that would make him get out of her mind as fast as physically possible. Such as her and jasper's private life. She never once slipped up. Stupid, smart, intelligent, sly pixie! (Note to self: use fewer adjectives).

Over the next few weeks, Alice became more and more unbearably exuberant and enthusiastic. What had happened in her vision?! It was made even more annoying due to the fact that the rest of us were pretty much miserable. We were forced to act like teenage humans. We had to endure their pathetic attempts at flirting. Of course, Edward and I were again pretending to be 'dating'. Although, apparently, we were not that great actors. People again began to question the legitimacy of our story, due to the fact that we never kissed, hardly touched etc, etc. Humans were tiresome and petty.

Alice promised me that she would help me with my predicament soon, very soon. That's a direct quote. What does that even mean, 'soon, very soon'. It's so....ominous. It had something to do with the vision she had weeks previously. I knew it did. I just knew it. What was her vision? I needed to know! The only thing that was keeping me sane was my volunteer work at the hospital.

Life in forks was monotonous, to say the least. Every day was the same. Nothing ever changed. Alice was as cheerful as ever. It was beginning to get on even jasper's nerves.

One day, we arrived at forks high school, and Alice seemed even more excited than usual. I was unaware that this was possible, but I guess it was. I have no idea why she was so excited; forks high school wasn't exactly the most fun place on earth. We all went to our first class of the day. By some strange stroke of luck, this was a day when all four of us had the same first class. We sat down, Edward and I together and Alice and jasper behind us. There was nothing inherently strange about this particular day. I daresay it was just like every other day we had spent here. But no, something was different, and it had something to do with Alice's vision.

The children around us were buzzing about some newcomers. I rolled my eyes. Good god, these humans were easily amused were they not? The teacher began to speak. I focused my attention upon him. Maybe, by some stroke of luck, he would have something interesting to say. Though it was doubtful.

'Class', he began 'Settle down, I have some exciting news. We shall be welcoming two new students into this class this morning. I trust that you will treat them with respect and courtesy.' Good luck with that sir. You'll need it.

As soon as he finished speaking, the door opened and Alice squealed, she actually squealed. In walked a teenage boy, if you could actually call him that, which I sincerely doubted. The word boy did not do him justice, he was huge. He was extremely tall and his body rippled with muscles. His head was covered in brown curls and he had an extremely goofy grin on his friendly face. He somewhat reminded me of a cuddly teddy bear. A very big teddy bear. A girl had walked in behind him and I turned my attention towards her. She was beautiful. Model beautiful. More so. She had long blonde hair, a slender figure and perfect skin. Between the two of them they had the entire class salivating. I felt extremely sorry for jasper and Edward. I looked at both of them sympathetically. Edward looked completely nauseated, whereas jasper was looking at Alice with hooded eyelids. I guess that I couldn't really blame him. He was probably drowning in lust, not that it made it any less sickening. Suffice it to say, I was pretty sure that neither Alice nor jasper would make it to their next class. My attention was brought back to the newcomers. The mammoth-like male had begun to speak. My interest in them was not sparked by their god-like good looks. Not in the least. It was because… they were vampires.

Well, there you have it. I've just finished it. I was hoping to have it posted by Saturday but at least it's up now, eh? Hope you like it. It was a bit longer than usual. I've gotten 126 reviews. Not bad. Anyway, I was thinking that as a thank-you, if I get up to 150 reviews, I'll give you all a special treat. Whether it's a whole chapter in EPOV or an extra long chapter etc. Leave you idea in a review and I'll get right on it. Whichever thing is most wanted will be done, okay?

I'll update ASAP. I might be able to tomorrow, but it's iffy.

Hope you enjoyed the chap and keep reading. Because I'm so nice I'm going to give you a sneak peek of the next chapter:

BPOV

The big one, the male, had a booming voice that filled the room. 'Hello,' he said, 'My name is Emmett McCarthy and this is my girlfriend Rosalie hale.' He pointed to the beautiful blonde. She hung onto his arm possessively and looked scornfully at the human girls. Emmett simply looked down at her with an amused expression on his face. A collective sigh of disappointment went through the room when they realised that the two newcomers were taken. Emmett laughed and Rosalie glared. I began to wonder if she was capable of anything but.

As the two of them walked by our desk to sit down, Edward put his arm around me protectively, in case the vampires were dangerous. As they walked by, Emmett winked at me and Edward's hold tightened indefinitely. Alice had really held out on us. This was obviously what her vision was about. She could have given us some warning. That pixie would have a lot to answer for when I got my hands on her.

Heheheh! Until next time.
