Chapter 12: School and Surprises.
BPOV
I had slept peacefully last night. No nightmares. I was thrilled. I glanced at the clock realizing it was 6am. We had to be at school by 7 to get all our schedules and for Emmett to give us a quick tour before class. Edward, Rose and Jazz were meeting us there. I jumped from the bed and ran to Emmett's door. It was already open and his bed empty. The shower was running. Since when had my brother been the early bird? I bypassed his room and made my way to Alice's room. I quickly knocked on the door. No answer. I knocked again, still no answer. I opened the door only to find Alice submerged under the covers. I started shaking her.
"OH, gawd Bella! Go away!" She murmured.
"Sorry, can't Alice. Unless you want to wear your jammies to school, you'd better get up!" I told her knowing the thought of wearing jammies to school would turn her head fast. I was right, she sat up.
"Jeez, Bella what time is it anyway?" Alice yawned.
"Alice, it is now 6:15. We've got 45 minutes to be at the school." She gasped.
"Well here's your bag get dressed and be back here in ten minutes. It's Barbie Bella time!" Alice laughed as she tossed a bag into my lap.
"Wide awake now are we?"
"Shut up, and go get dressed Bella. Nine minutes now."
I knew she was serious. I grabbed my bag and ran to my room. I emptied the contents on the bed to find a beautiful dark blue, lacy halter top with a white jean jacket to go over it. I also had a pair of white skinny jeans and a pair of dark blue ballerina flats. I quickly dressed, noticing these jeans weren't as tight as mine. I looked at the tag. Size 4. Alice had gotten me a larger size. I'd have to remember to thank her. I ran back to her room.
"Two minutes late!" She bellowed and then looked my way. "Bella, you look beautiful!" She enveloped me in a hug.
"Thanks so much Alice." I hugged her back. "The jeans fit perfectly by the way." She smiled.
"Okay Bells. Sit down." I immediately obeyed and she got to work doing my hair and makeup. She had just finished up when Emmett walked in.
"Girls, we gotta go! It's ten minutes to the school and ten minutes until we have to be there!" Emmett yelled.
"K, Em were ready let's go!" Alice yelled back as we made our way downstairs and to Emmett's jeep. I climbed in as did Alice. Emmett was flying.
"Em, can you slow down please!" I bellowed. My stomach was churning.
"Bells we're going to be late." He whined.
"No Emmett, I think you should slow down!" I bellowed my hand flying up to my mouth.
"Emmett, if you love your Jeep I'd slow down!" Alice chimed in looking at me as I started heaving.
"Guys, we're gonna be…."
"Damn it Em. Pull over!" Alice screamed. Emmett slowed and did as he was told. I no sooner opened my door when my stomach began to empty. Someone had had the decency to hold my hair as I puked. The puking stopped and I looked up only to find Edward smiling back at me. Their his car, a silver Volvo, parked behind Em's Jeep.
"Bella I would've pulled over if you'd said something." Emmett frowned.
"Newsflash Em, I DID!" I yelled.
"It's okay, Bella. You can ride with me the rest of the way." Edward offered. I made me way to his car and opened the door refusing to look back at Emmett. Edward took his place beside me as the rest piled into Emmett Jeep.
"Are you okay now Bella?" Edward asked in a concerned voice.
"Yeah I'm okay. It's just this little one. I didn't expect the morning sickness this soon." My hands went to my stomach.
"You're really okay with this baby aren't you?" It wasn't a question it was a statement. I just smiled back as we pulled into the school. Glancing at the clock we were already thirty minutes late, great no tour by the glorious Emmett. His Jeep was already there. Must have sped again.
Edward stopped the car. I frowned.
"Bella, this is going to be fine. School will be great." Edward smiled as he hopped out of the car. He made his was to my door and opened it, taking my hand and helping me out of the car. I blushed.
"Thanks Edward." I smiled. The others had made their way out of the Jeep and we were all in one big crowd now minus Emmett.
"Where's Em, Rose?" I asked.
"He's going to get your schedules. He trying to make amends, for the whole vomiting thing you know." She laughed. I could see Emmett making his way back from the school. He looked at me.
" I'm so sorry Bells, I didn't mean to make you vomit. Here's your schedule." He frowned.
"It's okay Emmett, it wasn't you. It was mini-me in there." They all laughed, and Emmett smiled.
"I took the liberty of looking at yours and Alice's schedules. Alice has all her classes with Jasper and your with me, Rose, and Edward all day long. We all have gym together last period." I smiled at the prospect of having a class with all of them. A bell rang in the distance.
"Let's go guys. Alice with Jasper. Bella go with Edward." Emmett called as we all parted ways.
Mr. Johnson's English class was first. Edward and I walked through the door. Edward took the liberty of introducing me to the teacher, saving me from any embarrassment. Edward was seated in the front of the class as I was sent to the back. I frowned at the prospect of being so far from him. These other people didn't know me and I felt comfortable with Edward by my side. I didn't know someone could care this much. After all Jake didn't?
I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned to see a girl, around my size with glasses looking at me.
"Hi, I'm Angela and this is Ben." She motioned to the boy beside her. "You're Isabella, Emmett's sister right?" She asked.
"I go by Bella, and yeah I'm Emmett's sister." She smiled.
" I hope you really like it here." She said before the teacher started his lecture. Angela seemed really nice. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad here.
My next classes were kind of boring. A guy named Mike had hit on me once and when I turned him down he had said something along the lines of "Well, guess Cullen got to her first." Jealous much? I only had to introduce myself to the class once in trig. I hated that class anyway. I had been seated beside two girls, Jessica and Lauren, I think. They seemed kind of snotty, asking me personal things about why I was here, what I was to Edward, and if Rose and Em were together. I tried to ignore them as much as possible. Jasper was in the class beside me while Alice was on the other side of the room.
As Jessica started with more questioning, Jasper spoke up.
"Girls, please give Bella a break from twenty question, she doesn't know you and you don't need to know anything about her." Jasper snarled. They girls turned around feigning hurtful expressions. They began to whisper. No doubt about me.
I quickly wrote 'Way to go, Jazzy' on a piece of paper and slid it to him. He smiled. Before I knew it Jazz and Alice had lead me to my locker. Alice's was beside me and Jazz's was a few rolls down.
I was throwing my things in there when something hit my back hard, making me fall forward into the side of my locker door. I felt the metal cut into the skin on my forehead. I heard Alice gasp. Jazz was quickly by my side.
"What the hell Mike?!!?" He yelled.
"What I didn't see her there." Mike grinned as Lauren made her way to him.
"Everyone's world can't revolve around Isabella Swan now can they?" Lauren stuck up for Mike in a nasally voice.
"That's what you'll say when Emmett finds out." Jazz warned. They just smiled and walked away.
"Bell's are you okay?" Jazz and Alice questioned. Alice had dug in her bag until she found a tissue. She pressed it gently to my forehead.
"Bells you're bleeding," Alice stammered.
I took the tissue from her. "Guys I'm okay I just can't see why some people are so cruel." I started crying.
"Oh, Bella there just jealous of us. Mike just likes you and you don't like him. He's hurting you to get at us for being so protective of you." Jazz cooed.
"What about Lauren?" I cried.
"Bells," Alice started hugging me, "she likes Edward so she's getting at you just to get to him." Alice rubbed my head. Her words stuck in my head. Why did she think it would bother Edward her bothering me?
Alice put her arm around me as Jazz led us to the cafeteria. He sat us down at a table in the back and went off to get all our food. Edward, Rose, and Emmett hadn't made it here yet.
Alice moved the tissue from my forehead. "It quit bleeding Bells. Are you sure you're okay?"
I wiped the last of the tears from my eyes, knowing what would happen if Em saw me crying.
"I'll be okay Alice. That was just so mean. It just reminded me of how cruel guys can be. It was like Jake all over again." I cringed.
"NEWTON!! WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO TO MY SISTER?" I heard Emmett yell from across the cafeteria. I saw he, Jazz and Edward hovering over Mike.
"Nothing man, she just got in my way." Mike snickered. Wrong move Mikey boy.
"She got in your way huh? In your way…" Emmett repeated his words before slamming Mike in the face hard with his fist. Mike hit the floor, Emmett on top of him slamming fist after fist into him. Edward and Jazz pulling at his back to no avail.
Finally Emmett stopped. "YOU WILL NEVER TOUCH MY SISTER AGAIN. GOT THAT!!!!"
"Yeah, yeah I got it." Mike stammered as he spit blood from his mouth. Emmett stood up only to be met with a hand from the principal.
"Mr. Swan, Mr. Newton, my office now!!" he bellowed. Emmett shot me an apologetic look and mouthed I'm sorry before following the principal out the door. Edward and Jazz joined Alice and I soon followed by Rose. I frowned solemnly at Jazz.
"Why'd you have to tell him?" I whined.
"Bell's I didn't, he over heard Mike bragging about it." Jazz apologized.
"Well, there's no point in him getting in trouble over me." I cried.
"Anyone one of us would have done the same thing for you Bella." Edward interjected.
"Yeah, Bell's I would have pummeled him myself if I'd been there." Rose laughed.
"It's okay Bells. Emmett took care of him. Oh man, did Emmett ever take care of him.!!" Alice cackled. I laughed along with her.
"My big teddy bear of a brother didn't act much like the "Teddy" type a few minutes ago, he was more of a grizzly." I laughed harder as the rest joined me.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Emmett never rejoined us for lunch. Class after class, Emmett was never there. Finally it was the end of the day. One more class and I'd meet my baby. As I made my way to gym, Edward in tow, I groaned.
"What's wrong Bella?" Edward asked with a worried voice. He followed my line of sight straight to Mike Newton and his now very bruised face. He frowned.
"It's fine Bells, he won't touch you again." Edward growled as Mike's eyes met mine. I changed my gaze and found Jazz, Alice, Rose, and Emmett in the corner. I broke away from Edward and jogged to Emmett, amazingly without falling flat on my face.
Emmett smiled and I enveloped him in a hug.
"There's my big brother." I was so glad to see him, I didn't know how much trouble he had gotten into because of me.
"Wow, Bell's I figured you'd be mad." He returned the hug.
I whispered to him, "Must be the hormones." Everyone burst into laughter.
"Well, here's something you won't like much." Em frowned. "I've got detention today for the whole Mike thing."
"That's okay Em, I'll wait for you." I offered.
"Bell's you'll miss your doctors appointment." Em whined. Oh I'd forgotten. I started to frown and felt terrible about the prospect of not seeing my baby today. She was the only thing keeping me even close to sanity.
"Oh." was the only answer I could muster. Soon Coach announced it was a free day. As most of our classmates paired off into different games around the gym, we all made our way to the bleachers. We were all silent.
Edward broke it. "I'll take her to the appointment Em. I'll leave now and take Jazz and Rose home, that way I'll be back in time to grab Alice and Bella and get them to the appointment on time. Trust me, Carlisle won't care." Edward smiled. I saw Jasper and Emmett exchange glances and grins. Wonder what that's all about?
"Edward, you don't have to do that!" I exclaimed.
"If I didn't want to Bella I wouldn't have offered." I sighed.
Soon Edward, Jazz, and Rose snuck out of the gym. The rest of the class was simply glares between Mike and Emmett when Emmett caught him glaring at me. Alice and I talked the whole class about seeing the baby, and Emmett made us promise to have plenty of pictures of "baby-bells" as he so lovingly named "her". Wonder if he knows she's no bigger than a peanut right now?
As the bell rang, Emmett bid us goodbye and made his was to detention. Edward was true to his word, and was waiting for Alice and I in front of the school. What a gentlemen! He stood there with two opened doors as he ushered us into the Volvo. We were on our way. Soon I'd meet my "baby-bells".
