Chapter 2:
Bella Pov:
The walk from the bus to school was a short one. Sean walked with me there and took me to the office to get my schedual. My first class was English, Sean didn't have that class but he walked me there and said he would even take me to my next class. I told him it wasn't necessary, that I could find my way. He relunctantly agreed and said he would meet her at lunch. She wondered why he was so persistant to know her. Didn't he see she wasn't all there, that she was broken in peices. The only reason she felt like she could get through the day was because of earlier that morning. When she had her breif moment of insanity. She opened the door of the English classroom and walked inside. She noticed that this school was actually pretty small. Not like Forks small, though. It was way smaller than her old school in Phionix, though. She walked to a seat in the back cornor of the classroom after the teacher said she could sit whereever she wanted. There were a few people in the room already. It didn't seem like there were many seats though, so not a very big class. There were probably twenty seats. She felt the eyes following here as she walked. Normally she would he been embarassed, or worried that she would trip. This time was different she didn't care. She sat down and grabbed her old notebook out of her backpack. She opened it to a blank page, to get ready to take notes. More people entered but she didn't bother looking up. Suddenly a couple girls walked into the room. They sat down in front of her. "Your the new girl." ,a girls voice said. She looked up to see the girl in front of her was talking to her. She had long black hair and dark green eyes. She had a unique kind of pretty about her. She was acctually probably gorgeous by anyone elses standereds. Her eyes were slightly glareing as she took in my plain clothes and looks. Her nose turned up in disgust. I just gave her a blank look and nodded. She looked over to the two other girls by her, they were both blonde. One had blue eyes the other brown eyes. They were pretty and had high end clothing. "I'm Veronica, and this is Kate and Felicity." ,Veronica said. "I'm Bella." ,I said. Veronica turned back around clearly disinterested in me. I looked down at my notebook and wrote my name at the top. I started to doodle images at the top of the page when I suddenly heard music. The lyrics screamed out of Veronica's headphones.
You, You
Him and Her
Life is Turned
The day I knew you would leave...
I can barley breathe
Can you hear me scream? (I choked back tears. I couldn't listen to this. It fit so perfectly.)
ohhhhh
Thrown in all directions
You, epitome of perfection (I couldn't choke back a gasp.)
She's lost her will
I wrapped my arms around myself, to hold myself togather. I squezzed my eyes shut. "Veronica?", I said opening my eyes. She turned around and a confused look crossed her face. "Can you please turn the music off?" ,I begged. "Why?" she asked. "I don't like it." She looked shocked. "How can you not like music?" I just shrugged. "Whatever.", she said. "Freak.", Veronica said under her breath loud enough for me and her friends to hear. They chuckled. Just then the teacher started talking.
"Good Morning class. As you may have noticed we have a new student. Her name is Isabella Swan. Please try to make her feel welcome.", the teacher said and I raised my hand. "Yes, Miss. Swan.", the teacher asked see my hand. "I prefer Bella actually.", I said. "Alright then Bella it is."
The class went by slowly but eventually it did go by. The next class seemed to be the same, it was Math, which I despised. Unfortunatly Veronica and her friends also had this class with me as well. Finally it was time for lunch. I had planned on eating alone, certain that Sean had long forgotten me. I was wrong as soon as I had gotten my lunch he called out my name. I looked over to see him surrounded by people. They were all sitting under a huge oak tree away from everyone else on two picnic tables pulled togather. I seems most of the students here ate outside. Sean was waveing at me. He was sitting by a bunch of guys and a few girls. I also notice that Veronica and her friends sat there as well. For a moment when I saw her I thought I'd just pretend I didn't hear Sean and just eat alone like I wanted. Though I went over anyway. I mean even if Veronica says something unpleasant, why should it matter? The only thing that matters anymore is Charlie and Renee. The lyrics of earlier echoed in my head for a moment. She's lost her will. I shivered and made my way to Sean. He moved over to let me sit down. "What's she doing her?", Veronica's voice said. "I invited her to sit here Veronica.", Sean said in an annoyed voice. "Why she's so weird. Did you know she can't stand even to listen to music.", her tone was sarcastic. "I turned on my ipod for like a second and she told me to turn it off because she didn't like music." Sean looked at me questioningly. "It's not the actual music, just the lyrics.", I said defensivly. I picked at my food, not really concentrating on the conversation. "Why not? It's about a guy who got dumped. Oh, Bella, Is that why you got dumped." I wasn't listening I tried to drownd her voice and everything else out. My cheast ached a little when the word dumped broke through my barrier. Dumped, didn't even come close to covering it. I unconsiously wrapped my arms around myself. "Bella are you okay?", Sean asked from beside me. I nodded. The rest of lunch went by the the rest of the day. Sean was in my next class along with Veronica again, the class was music. It didn't bother me though. Then I had Art, no P.E. That was the only good thing. I walked to the bus stop and saw Sean waiting there. "Hey Bella.", he called. "Hey.", I mumbled. We sat down in the same seats togather as that morning. "Hey Bella can I ask you something?" I looked at him weary. "Depends.", I answered. "Well it's about what Veronica said earlier. The song and how you were dumped is that true?", he asked looking embarassed. My cheast ached as if to let me know it was waiting to split open. I let out a long breath. "Yeah.", I said. When I looked at him there was sympathy in his eyes. "How long has it been?", he asked. I tried not to thing about it. "Five months.", came my reply. "I'm sorry Sean, but I really can't talk about it." I looked to the window. "It must have been pretty bad." You have no idea.
The bus pulled over to the curb and Sean and I got out. "Hey Bella.", he called before I walked away. "Yeah." He looked embarassed. "Well I know I don't know well yet but do you want to walk to the bus stop togather tommorrow?", he asked. "Uh sure.", I said. I explained how to find my house which turned out to be pretty easy, because it turned out he lived only a few houses down. We agreed on a time and then I went home to find Renee already home. Kindergardeners got out earlier than highschoolers. "How was your first day?", she asked. "Good.",I said walking to my room.
