Chapter 3

I couldn't believe that today was the day. I would start a new school and meet new people.

How would they react to me? Would they like me or would they hate me?

I didn't really care if they hated me or liked me because all I cared for was my dreams.

I got off my bed and started to my day before I started school.

Driving to school was easier than done, with no problems of getting lost. I pulled to the school parking lot and notice that the school was almost filled. The only parking left was next to a shiny silver Volvo, and next to that was a yellow Porsche. They must be rich for them to have those kinds of cars.

I pulled out my paperwork and headed to my first class waiting for this day to be over, really over. I couldn't wait for this day of attention to be over. I didn't really like being the center of attention. I had problems with it in the past but then remembered that dancing would always calm me down and made me forget where I was.

I wanted this day to stop, and for me to be in my safe place where nothing would bother me. I wanted to express what I felt for the day. I wanted to forget the outside world where it was just me and my dancing and the music. Where I knew who I really was. I didn't need sound today what I was feeling, all I needed was moves. Moves to express when I was mad, or when I was sad, or just for the fact I needed to feel me for once.

I wanted to dance these nerves off. I wanted to feel calm when nothing would touch me. I just wanted to feel safe for the first time in my life.

"Bella" Jessica yelled coming over to me.

She came over to me and gave me a hug. How nice of her.

She had a smile on her face.

"You made it. I thought you were going to get lost." She said with a little giggle.

She thought that I was going to get lost, but I didn't because I knew my way around.

"Nope I knew where I was going. It is not that hard to get lost. It is common sense."

Out of the corner of my eye was this beautiful girl, pale skin, short spiky hair, more like a pixie. She looked like she was really happy.

Who was this lady? Who had brought a smile to my face?

Jessica noticed me starting at her and faced me.

"Her name is Alice Cullen."

She came over to us like she had heard our conversation the whole time.

"Hello Bella, my name is Alice of course. Would you and Jessica like to sit with us and the rest of my family?"

She looked at me like she knew the answer already.

"Yes I guess that is alright with me, and of course Jessica would come too."

It was like time was slowing down on purpose and I didn't like it one bit. I wanted to get to know more about Alice. It was like we were best of friends. It was like we instantly clicked together.

It was happy about meeting her family for some odd reason. I couldn't understand it. It was like I knew who they were but I never meet them.

It was time, time for me to branch out and meet new people. I walked through the cafeteria doors and noticed everyone was looking at me.

I was the town gossip of this town. I guess nothing really happened here, so something as a new person would make the headlines news.

"Bella Swan the daughter of Charlie Swan daughter returns for a dance off."

I had seen Alice seating at the table with Jessica talking about something. I couldn't really tell what they were talking about.

They had seen me and motioned for me to come over and wait for the rest of her family to come.

I turned around and gasp

Coming through those same doors were the most inhumanly possible people, all looking the same? Pales faces, eyes of gold and by most part they looked like gods. It was like they were telling a story when they walked in through those doors.

How can a group of family just walk into here and tell us a story.

They were 2 males, 1 female. The female who I was guessing Rose, because she looked like a Rosaline to me. She had blonde hair past her shoulders; she walked as if she was saying bow down to me. I am much better then you. The guy who was next to her was muscular guy who looked like he was into sports, as he was all about the looks. Just by saying he was the kid in the family because he looked like the type to play with his food. The blonde guy who looked like he was in pain all the time, looked like he came out of the civil war, walking as if he was riding into war. He was from the south.

Over the past years I had gotten to read people really well. I was able to get almost there life story just by looking at them and I was always right.

They came closer to the table where we were sitting at. They all looked at us as if we were crazy just by seating next to them.

Alice turned to me and said.

"Bella, this is the rest of my family. This is." she didn't get to finish because I cut her off.

"I know this is Jasper, and he is from the south, and looks like he just came from the war. You, Alice are his match. Then this is Emmet, who loves to play games and plays with his food. Then there is Rose who looks like if looks can kill, who only thinks about herself and no one else. Then there is Edward, who loves his piano and listens to classical music, such has Debussy."

Confusion plastered across their faces, as if I had done something out of the ordinary. I looked over to Jessica who raised her eyebrow.

"What?" I glared at them.

"How did you know all that?" Edward said looking at me with intensity as if he was trying to read me.

"Can I tell you a secret?" I asked them. They nodded.

"I am a witch, a supernatural witch." Surprised crossed each of their faces, and Emmet had the biggest smirk on his face. This was easier than I thought possible.

I laughed so much that I fell to the ground because of their surprise.

"I am not a witch. I just wanted to see your reaction would be and it worked because it was totally hilarious and by the looks on Emmet's face had a smile on his face, like he was going to do something." I couldn't stop laughing. They must think I am crazy.

"Look this is the truth, I just know things. I don't need to think about nothing, and it just comes to me out of the blue."

Alice came over to me and pulled me to the seat and the rest of the family followed. All eyes were still on me as if I were about to do something.

"Guys this is Bella and she is here for a dance off, with someone from this school and she is going to win she will be able to attend Juilliard in New York. I don't know who the other person is but we will find out soon enough."

Coming through the doors was a female who looked like she owned the school. She had almost every person following her and dressing like her. From what I can tell she was one of them, the popular one, and the one who made everyone's life a living hell.

"Well, well, look at who we have here. The infamous Bella Swan coming back." She said it with so much hate and it bothered me. No one I mean no one talks to me like that.

"Just so we are on the same I am Lauren and I am the one who will be competing for the same spot as you. So don't get your hopes high because I always get what I want, and I want that spot at Juilliard. So look out because I will beat you. I am so much better then you."

Hell no, she doesn't know who I am and she doesn't get to speak to me like that. I deserve respect. I am not going to stoop to her level.

"Who the hell do you think you are talking to me like that? You don't know me and I surely don't know you. So you cannot be going to other people and talk to them like that. "I looked at her with a glare, and scary one because she flinched.

Out of the corner of my eye I had seen Emmet trying not to laugh.

"Bella, I love you already. You are one feisty girl." He said with a smile on his face.

Rose gave him a glare letting him know his mistake.

There is always one way to settle this kind of hostilely. I got out of my seat and made my way over to her table and handed her my hat.

When a dancer wears a hat, and hands it to another opponent it meant battle. The hat symbolizes who we are and what we do as dancer. Mine had colors of everything that meant something to me and had poses from dances that I grew to love. So handing it to another opponent meant something really big. It was like you were fighting for your dignity. When the opponent accepts the battle they take the hat into their hands and return it to the owner.

Laura looked at me as if I was crazy for doing something like this. She took the hat out of my hand and placed it into her hands and returned letting me know it was on.

I went back to the table where Jessica and the rest of the Cullen's were seating. I had seen smiles cross their faces as I got closer to them.

"What?" I was a little irritated about this, giving me the silent treatment.

"I gotta say Bella you have some balls on you. Even thought you are a female, because no one would ever have the guts to go up against her." I smiled because I knew I would be the only one to put her into her place. She needs to show respect.
