Chapter 3

"Oh my God, Mr. Molina totally caught me in first period," Bella advised her two best friends, Rosalie and Alice, as the first bell rang, signalling they were supposed to be in second period and not talking in the halls.

"You think that's bad, Mr. Berty caught me chewing on my gum and made me spit it out in front of the entire class," Alice grumbled and she blew a bubble with the gum she was currently chewing. "That was my last stick of cinnamon too, bastard."

Rosalie wafted her hand through the air, smirking slightly. "Really, then why does your breath still smell like cinnamon?"

"So I may have beggared one off of Jazzy."

Bella laughed. "Did you kiss him?"

"Oh gods no, I'm far too shy for that. Besides, you know he's like totally into your brother."

Bella scowled. "I've told you before, Peter and Jasper are just friends."

"There is such a thing as bi, you two."

Alice's face screwed up like she'd bit a lemon.

Rosalie rolled her eyes. "You two are going to Lauren's for the weekend slumber party, right?"

Before either could reply, the bell rang a second time, alerting them they were five minutes late for class.

"Shit! If Mr. Banner marks me as absent again, my dad swore he'd make me spend a night in a jail cell!" Bella took off to her English class.
