New arrival

Bpov

The song ended and I heard clapping come from behind me. I turned around and saw Edward standing in the door way.

"That was amazing, you have an incredible voice."

"I thought you left with Esme and Carlisle?" was all I could answer with.

"No I wanted to stay and see if you maybe wanted help?" he sounded nervous, The Edward Cullen, nervous ? Ha!

"Sure. I just have to get something from my room grab a brush and start painting." I gave him a half smile. I tried to walk past him but I slipped. I waited for the pain that came with hitting the hardwood floor. But it never came. The roller, clutched in front of me, was pressed against Edward's white shirt. I couldn't help but laugh. He looked down and smiled. He stood me up and said.

"You think that's funny do you?"

"Duh, that's why I'm laughing!" Seriously what else would I be laughing at? Next thing I know Edward had a pink paint brush in his hand.

"You wouldn't!" I took a step back. "try me."

"But I didn't mean to get your shirt painted it just happened it was an accident!" I all but shrieked. He flicked the paint brush. And I got sprayed with paint. My face and clothes were covered in pink spots.

"Opps." Edward said with a very smug look on his face. "It was just an accident." He turned away, I walked up behind him with my brush in hand.

"Edward," I said as he turned around. "Let me wipe that smug look off your face." I finished and dragged the brush across his mouth and down his shirt.

He looked shocked and said. "Now you can help me wipe it off." He pressed his lips to my cheeks. I pulled away and wiped my cheeks. Gross.

"I gotta say Hale, Never knew you had it in you."

"what the hell?" Esme walked in and looked at the sight before her. Edward with paint over his mouth and a long strip down his front, and me with paint on my cheeks, in my hair and on my shirt. Her jaw dropped.

"Edward wanted to help." I said shrugging my shoulders and putting on an innocent smile.

"Yeah he helped paint everything. But the wall !" She exclaimed. At with that we all burst out in laughter. I was finally started to calm down, but then Carlisle walked in,

"Whoa Ed buddy Magenta is definitely not your color." he said it with the funniest expression of his face, even funnier then Esme's. I started into a giggle fit all over again. Finally after 10 straight minutes of laughing, I managed to calm down. I looked at everyone and they all had the strangest look on their faces.

"What? It was funny!" I exclaimed. And they started to laugh. I narrowed my eyes, I couldn't tell if they were laughing at me or with me.

Esme came over and hugged me.

"Haha Bella your so funny!"

"Okay you guys laugh it out while I take a shower and get cleaned up." I left the room and entered my bathroom. I stripped down and hopped into my shower. After washing my hair twice, there was still a little paint in my hair. I sighed and decided to give up. I got dressed and blow dried my hair. I walked into the guest room and found them talking silently.

"I say we finish tomorrow if you guys want to come over again. I think I've had enough paint for today." They all agreed and we decided to go get something to eat.

******************

Just one more day until Tanya arrived. Luckily we finished painting her room last Sunday, without painting anyone.

Spanish was boring and it seemed twice as long as usual. The last minute seemed like ten, but finally the bell rang. I met Esme and Carlisle at her locker and we headed to take our normal table. Edward sat with his group across the room. I had to admit he wasn't as bad when we weren't in school. But he was still a jerk. Let's just say I don't hate him anymore, just... strongly dislike.

Lauren and her "posy" gave me dirty looks. So I just smiled and waved at them. Earning a laugh from Esme and Carlisle. I turned toward them and laughed. All to soon The bell rang signaling the end of lunch break. I headed to my Biology class. When I saw Edward flirting with a redhead. They began kissing and as I passed them I tripped on my own feet and nudged Edward a bit as I was regaining my balance. "Jesus Hale watch were your walking!" He said fiercely as the redhead walked away. "Couldn't you see I was busy? If you wanted what she did, your just going to have to take a number because I am wanted. I can get any girl I wanted."

I was completely shocked, what was his problem? "Sorry Edward you didn't have to go off and be a jerk. Did it ever occur to you that I bumped into you on accident? That maybe I tripped over my own feet?"

Silence.

"I guess not." I said coldly. Edward rushed past me. Angry tears made there way to the surface. I didn't understand why he went off on that. Ugh! He makes me so angry. And he implied what? That I wanted to make out with him? A sick egotistical pig. Never in my life! I was wrong no matter how he acted. He would always be a jerk!

I walked into Biology which unfortunately I had with Edward. Thank god I didn't have to be his lab partner. Mr. Banner walked into the class, rolling a tv set I take it we were going to watch a movie. He set it up and of course. Bill Nye pops up on screen with his very amusing theme song.

Right after the movie ended the bell rang and I headed off to Social studies. That class went by fast considering all we did was take notes. Last bell rang and we were finally home free. Last day of first term really was boring. But it was the weekend and who would be arriving tomorrow. Tanya. We were going to have so much fun! I thought sarcastically.

******************

I woke up to a finger poking me on the shoulder.

"Cousin wake up I'm here, you better have a cake with my name on it." She wasn't kidding.

"No I don't Tanya, go away I had a horrible week and I want to sleep."

"Ugh! Fine I guess you don't wanna hear about my trip to Paris and everyone there envied my great and amazing looks."

"No, I don't now leave." I mumbled. She didn't take the hint but instead continued on. "I even showed them a picture of you. I told them I didn't see how we are related I mean look at me and then look at you. Boring old Bella! I'm so beautiful and then there's you. I mean they just couldn't get over how pretty I was..." I couldn't believe that. What a bitch my cousin was. I had enough. "GET OUT OF MY ROOM!" I bellowed. She left shocked at getting yelled at. She was such a spoiled brat.

I had trouble falling back asleep so, I got out of bed and decided to get ready for a busy day. I looked into the mirror and saw that what my cousin had said was true. I was ugly and plain. After hearing it from her every year and denying it. I was finally believing her. She was beautiful and I wasn't. I sighed and went over to my desk. I applied a bit of light make-up. And I had to admit I looked a bit better than before. I shook my head. Ugly will always be ugly. And with that I started off a very long weekend.

New term began today. And I saw that I had Dramatic Arts first, so I headed over to room 103. I entered the room and at first I thought that I was the only one in there. Until I saw him, Edward was sitting in the corner.

"Uhh...What are you doing here?" I asked, what was he doing here, he wasn't in drama. Was he?

"I'm into Drama. Is that a problem?"

"Why?" This was my thing musical theater, It was they I expressed my self apart from music. Drama was my thing, now he had to come and ruin it.

He shrugged, "I wanted to try it out." Just then Lauren walked in and squealed. "Ohh, Edward's in our class." I rolled my eyes. She turned toward me and gave me a shut up -don't think about it- he's mine look, "What are you doing here Hale. You can leave now." I held in my laugh. What a Bimbo. "Uh. Lauren, I'm here cuz I'm in drama you idiot. Why else would I be here?"

"Well maybe you just wanted Edward all to yourself." I let a laugh escape my lips. "Why would I want Edward all to myself?"

"Give it up Hale I know you want to date him. It's obvious that you like him." By now the class had arrived and surrounded us,

"Ha ! Sorry to burst your bubble Lauren but I don't date, sick egotistical jerks that just use girls and throws them away when he's done, like Edward. So you can have him all you want." I finished and looked at Edward. He had a look of anger and questioning on his face. Maybe I was getting through to him. Just then Mrs. Keyes walked in and calmed us down.

Lunch came by quickly and I wasn't surprised to see Tanya talking and sitting with Lauren and her "posy". Those two were made for each other. Hmm I wonder if they rolled that way? I was deep in thought about how I would dye Tanya's white Gucci bag a puce color, when a loud laugh came from across the room. I looked over and saw Tanya and Lauren laughing hysterically at a picture. No doubt of me. I sighed. Things were going to get a lot worse at Forks High school.

I hope you liked it! I anted to write more but I want to save it for next chapter.
Yes Tanya and Lauren are friends. What better way to stir the pot?

And Edward. Jerk ! Yes I am totally on team Edward but I want things to go this way.

And I know most of you are probably like .Oh it's just another one of those stories where Edward is the Player who falls for Bella. It might be true. But I am definitely not telling.

Anyways. Thanks to those who reviewed I'm not gonna lie it makes me want to write more often.

Your truly.
