Woah! You guys are amazing! I asked for 3 reviews, and got 13! I'm in awe that so many of you would like my story! I got a few reviews asking if this is going to be like The Breakfast Club...umm somewhat. I just referenced it in the first chapter because I had watched it the night before. Hehe. I would like to thank everyone who reviewed though. You are all my new best friends! It has been raining non-stop here in upstate NY so I have had a lot of time to type this up. As before, leave me some feedback! :)
Chapter 2 "Hi, My name is..."
Bella POV
My brain was going a mile a minute. Locked in? Surly, he must be joking. I mean ten students locked in a lecture hall for a whole week? What about our other classes? What about our jobs? I know that if I missed my shifts down at the local cafe then I would get fired! I really needed the money too. What about our families? Oh no! The girls and I promised Charlie, my dad, we would visit him on Friday! What was I going to do?
Alice looked back towards me, almost as if she was sensing my major freak out. She mouthed "Don't worry.", and then looked back towards the professor. I averted my gaze back to the professor also. He was studying a sheet of paper. He then held the piece of paper up, and began explaining.
"Okay. This here is your evaluation sheet. You are to fill these out at the end of every day, right before you go to sleep." He looked around to make sure everyone understood. Seeing that no said anything, he continued. "You all are going to be locked in the Physiology lecture hall. Seeing as we have class there twice a week, you know where you will be living. Anything goes in this assignment. You are allowed to do whatever you want, except contact the outside world. If you do then the assignment will be considered a failure, and the term paper, that you so far are exempt from, will become twenty pages longer. Do you understand?" Everyone just numbly nodded their heads. "Okay, great! Everyone follow me."
Professor Lee led the group of ten through the hall's doors, and proceeded to walk down the steps towards the stage. Rosalie, and Alice waited for me to come to their sides. They both began talking, while walking down the steps.
Rosalie was excited. "This is going to be so much fun! Just like a sleepover! There is even going to be guys with us! Too bad I didn't see their faces though! Their backs looked nice from where I was standing." She laughed, then continued. "Did you see the big one? His muscles were huge!"
Alice however was questioning me. "Who was that guy that caught you? What's his name? I have never seen him around before."
Alice's questioning made me think about the handsome stranger too. He never even told me his name. Well, I get to spend a whole week with him! This thought caused me to lose my footing, and almost trip down the stairs. If it wasn't for Rosalie, and Alice keeping me steady I would have fallen. They're used to my clumsiness.
When we reached the stage we noticed the sleeping bags in the corners. There were ten of them. Great. We're going to be sleeping on the floor. I really don't want a stiff neck. I then started to look around the huge room. It looked the same as always, except for the desk on the stage being gone. There was practically nothing in the room. I then heard Professor Lee clearing his throat.
"Okay, you will have food delivered three times a day. If you need anything else you can use this walke talke (AN: How do you spell that? I have no clue Oo) Someone will always be on hand to answer it. I suggest getting to know one another, you will be stuck together. Also, Don't worry about your other classes, or personal lives. My people and I have it covered." The professor then walked up the steps, and out the door. The click echoed in the silent room.
The silence was almost un-nerving. The one thing that I found weird was that the professor had people. I want people.
Alice, who was standing next to me, decided to take charge. "Okay everybody. Put your suitcases in that corner," She pointed to where the sleeping bags were. "and then come sit in a circle on the stage." No one questioned Alice at all. They just did what she said. Probably because they all had nothing better to do.
Once I put my suitcase where it belonged I found myself in a circle next to Alice, and Rosalie. The handsome stranger was sitting across from me. He smiled a crooked smile that made my heart swoon.
Alice began talking again. "Okay everyone. We are going to do as Professor Lee suggested. Lets get to know one another!" She said excitedly while clapping her small hands together. "Okay, lets go around the circle, and say our names, and three things about ourselves. Don;t worry this will be fun! You can go first." She pointed her manicured finger at girl with dark brown hair, who looked shy, and sweet.
"Umm...Okay. My name's Angela. One, I love my boyfriend Ben." She smiled at the guy sitting next to her. I assumed he was Ben, or she didn't love her boyfriend the way she said she did. "Two, I still haven't decided what to major in, and three I like being nice to people." She seemed just as sweet as she looked.
The guy sitting next to her was indeed her boyfriend. His name was Ben, and he wanted to be a lawyer. He also loved his girlfriend, and his dog. The girl sitting on the other side of Ben was named Jessica. She had blond hair, and the expression on her face made me think that she was very rude. Her answers confirmed my thoughts. She said she loved partying, boys, and looking at herself in the mirror.
Wow shes vain.
The person to go next was the guy with the gorgeous eyes. "Hey, my names Edward." Oh, his name seemed perfect. "I'm stuck here with my best friends." He motioned to the blond sitting next to him, and the large, muscled guy sitting next to the blond. "I play the piano, and I am majoring in medicine." He was perfect.
The blond next to Edward was named Jasper, and he also mentioned his best friends. He said he was a history buff, and had no clue why he agreed to do this assignment. We all laughed at his last statement. I noticed Alice looking at him with interest. I thought they would look cute together.
Emmett was the big guy. He mentioned his friends, and his love of working out. He also said he loved his Jeep. He seemed very nice, despite his muscles. Rosalie eyed him with interest.
The blond sitting next to Emmett cleared his throat. "This seems dumb, but I will go along because I have nothing better to do." Alice looked upset that he had called her idea dumb. I glared at the guy, and noticed Jasper glaring too. But, the guy continued speaking, completely oblivious to the glares. "My names Mike. I like girls, dating, and having sex." At his last comment everyone just turned to stare at him. He was a vulgar pig. Note to self, stay away from Mike.
Alice quickly started talking about herself, trying to get rid of the awkward silence. She mentioned Rose, and me. Plus, her love of shopping. The last thing she said was about her Porsche. Mike, and Ben's jaws dropped when they heard her type of car. Jessica looked extremely jealous. Alice didn't seem to notice though. She was smiling at Jasper.
Rosalie went next. She absentmindedly flipped her hair over her shoulder before she began to talk. I could have sworn I saw Emmett drool. Rose talked about Alice, and I. Plus, her love of clothes, and fixing cars. Emmett whistled under his breath. Rose smirked at him.
Lastly it was my turn I could feel my face burn as everyone looked at me. I looked down at my lap as I said my three things. I talked about my best friends, how I worked at the cafe, and how I liked to read.
Once I was done. No one moved. I glanced over at Edward to see him looking right at me, I blushed, and quickly turned away. No one seemed to know what to do. The silence however was broken when a voice was heard.
"Hello? Come in. Come in?" I looked for the noise, and found it to be coming from the walke talke at Alice's feet. She picked it up, and daintily replied.
"Hello. Read you loud and clear. Over." She grinned at all of us. The walke talke then replied "Okay, good just checking to see if these things work. Everything is taken care of. Don't worry about your classes, or lives. Just focus on the assignment. Over, and out."
Alice put the walke talke down, then looked to the group. "How about we mingle for a while?" Everyone seemed to think this was a good idea. I decided that I wanted to talk to Edward so I made a beeline for him. But, I was intercepted before I got that far.
Mike came up to me, and started talking. "Hey, Bella right?" He didn't wait for my reply, he just continued on. "Thats a great name." I tuned him out as I glanced over at Edward. I saw that Jessica was draped on his arm. It figures that he would like someone like her more then me. I was disappointed. But, I quickly looked back at Mike when he started saying some things. "So, I was thinking. Your hot, and so am I. I think it would just be natural to hook up. How does tonight sound? What do you say?"
I had two thoughts running through my head. One was that, what had I gotten myself into? And the other was, Mike is a pig.
