Bella POV

The first day of school... sucked. As always. It was the same lessons, and the same people thinking and doing the same thing. I was getting sick of it. I could tell Edward was too. I caught him grimacing quite a few times today. It must of been the thoughts. The first day, or any other day, was harder on him than everyone else. The six time I saw him do this, in biology, I grabbed his hand and put up my shield. He noticed right away, and smiled at me with a look of relief. I smiled back. When we got home, Renesmee ran up to me and gave me a hug, then Edward. She showed us every little detail of her day, and by the time she was finished it was time for her to go to bed.


Edward POV

The next day...

I was about to get Renesmee up to say goodbye before we went to school when Alice stopped me.

"By the way Edward," she said. "Conor is going to ask Bella to the spring dance today in the parking lot, but for best results, listen in, but stay unnoticed."

So Alice saw me, wanting to ask her to see something? Ha, she was always one step ahead of everyone else. I nodded and thanked her.

When we got to school, I stood by the car, waiting.

"Aren't you coming?" Bella asked me.

"I'm going to stay behind, just for a few minutes." I told her. She gave me a look, and sighed and kept walking.


Bella POV

Edward was staying behind. I decided to shake it off. It couldn't be too big of a deal, could it.

Once I was fairly far away, one of the Pattons, Conor, I think, came up to me. I could tell what this was. Oh no. I should have saw it coming before. It was always me. Why was it always me? But I didn't know why I was asking myself that. I already knew the answer.

Alice seemed to small, a little weird too. Sometimes the guys went for her, but not often. Rosalie would be a target all the time. But, scary looking Emmett always stood by her when there was a chance to ask her out. So guys stayed away. That makes me the target. Sigh.

"Hey, Isabella, isn't it?" He asked me, trying to sound cool. I didn't pay attention to that. How did he know my real name?

"Bella," I corrected him.

"Bella," he said. "Do you want to go to the Spring Dance with me?"

"Well Conor," I responded. "That wouldn't be a good idea."

"Why?" He asked. "Are you going with someone else?" He was starting to get angry. I really did not like this kid. Apparently, he was one of the popular people around here. Surprised and angry when he doesn't get his way.

"Well," I explained. "I don't really plan on going. And I have a boyfriend, anyway." Then I nodded my head to Edward, who was watching us.

"Okay..." He said eyeing Edward. Now I knew why Edward was staying behind. He could have told me. I would be a little more prepared...


The more reviews the faster the chapter comes.

I don't own Twilight, or any of the characters. Except for the Patton family. They are mine. I'm going to see if I can trade them for the Cullens.
