Lunch
Nothing much happened when we went down to the office. I think my teacher has a reputation for having a temper because the assistant principal didn't care that much. He just told us it was a warning and then we had to wait for the end of the period to leave. Emmett had left me with a simple goodbye because we had a different class. My next 3 periods were pretty dull without him. Could I already like a guy, only knowing him for maybe 2 hours? He was just so outgoing, not afraid to just put himself out there. I guess I was attracted to that. Anyway, before lunch I went to my locker and it opened on the first try. Kirsten had appeared next to me at her locker by now. "Hey Emily," she was eying me from the corners of her eyes while she was getting books from her locker.
"Hey Kirsten. How has your day been so far?"
"Ahh can't complain. It seems as though you've had an exciting day though." She raised her eyebrows up and down to make me laugh.
"I guess you could say that."
"I am saying that! How do you know Emmett? It seemed as though you were best friends since birth or something." We both closed our lockers and now heading towards the cafeteria.
"I actually don't know him. I just kind of bumped into him on my way into school."
"Hah that's a nice way to get to know someone." We finally got to the cafeteria and we sat down at the table closest to the doors. I put my bag down on the table and looked around. So many different groups of kids and you could tell which groups were which from their clothing. There were: preps, jocks, nerds, goths, emos, and norms. I felt like I was in a High School Musical movie.
Apparently I attracted the preps, jocks, and the norms because that's whom Kirsten sat with. She introduced me to everyone. I had to start remembering the names, I heard: Paul, Nick, Jim, Mike, Sarah, Jenn, and Maria. I told them all hello and I have to say I caught all the guys' attention. "So where are you from?" I think Paul said and "Do you like it here so far?" said Nick and "Do you like the weather here?" said either Jim or Mike, I really don't know. "Hold on guys," Jenn said. I was grateful she said that, I was getting confused. "Let her think about her answers first. Okay, the floors all yours Emily." I laughed and said, "Thanks. Okay, I'm from New York. It's okay here and I'm not a fan of the weather." They laughed.
Then they started talking again about things I wasn't too interested in and I looked around the cafeteria again. Then I saw him, Emmett, laughing with a bronze-haired guy. He was perfect too. He was pale with a perfect face and … the golden eyes. They weren't the only two. There was a couple on the other side of the table and a blonde haired girl. The couple was so cute together, the guy had blonde hair pushed back and the girl had short black spiky hair and a beautiful face. The blonde was gorgeous, I felt like I was no competition for guys with her around.
I nudged Kirsten, "Hey, who are those people with Emmett?" I didn't want to seem nosy but I had to know. Then Kirsten started to tell me, "Oh, they're his family. They're very close. Dr. Carlisle Cullen and his wife adopted them all. Alice and Jasper are the ones together, Rosalie is the blonde, Edward is the bronze-haired one, and of course you know Emmett." I nodded. She continued to say one more thing, "Oh and Edward is with Bella Swan. She's the one walking over to their table now." There was a girl that was of natural beauty walking over to sit next to Edward. Kirsten looked at me and back to Emmett's table. I had to ask her some questions so I did without hesitation. "Is Emmett popular?" She laughed and said, "Yes, he's our football quarterback and he's led us to an undefeated season so far. He's really the most outgoing one though. The rest of them keep to themselves mostly." I kind of laughed to myself. Why would Emmett be quarterback? He seemed more like a defensive player.
I looked over to their table and I saw Edward nudge Emmett and then Emmett turned around to look at me and gave me his winning smile and then waved at me. Just to be polite I waved back. He got up and started walking to my table. I didn't think it was a big deal, but everyone in the cafeteria was watching him come over to me. They must have been looking at me when I waved back at him. There must be a lot of girls crushing on him, I mean who stalks someone's every move? He finally reached my table and all the guys were glaring at him.
"Hey guys," he said giving them a slight wave.
"Hey Emmett," they mumbled. Then Emmett leaned down over me.
"Hey Emily, why don't you sit with us tomorrow?" Then he looked up at the guys again, "If your friends down mind." I looked at them and they didn't look too happy but they didn't want to say no to the Big Emmett.
"No, no, nah, of course not," they all said over each other's voices.
"Okay, then it's agreed," then he whispered closer to my ear, "Here, I don't think notes work too good for us." Then I looked down to see that he slipped a piece a paper in my hand and when I looked back up he was already walking to his table. I unfolded the paper and it had his number in it.
