ON WITH THE GRADE SEVEN-NESS!
Grade Seven Days
Bella stumbled into her locker, knocking her books out of her hands. Sighing with frustration, she bent down to pick up the many books she had to carry around with her. Sometimes advanced classes were a pain.
"Need help?" Came a familiar and loved voice. It was the voice of her best friend - Edward Cullen. His infamous crooked smile was present on his face. Bella looked at him grumpily.
"Not that I'm getting any." She grumbled. Edward bent down and snatched a book from her hands. He then proceeded to hand it back to her. Edward then bowed.
"You are very welcome, Miss Swan. I hope to help you in the future." Edward pretended to tip an invisible hat. Bella rolled her eyes and gave him a gentle shove.
"Well, since you are so eager to help me out, you will be carrying my books to advanced English, Mr. Cullen." Bella dropped her books into Edward's hands. "Have fun with it." She giggled, before she flounced away to catch up with her twin sister Alice.
"Hey, Ally!" Bella grinned at her short twin. She also happened to be Bella's evil side, and her other best friend. Alice playfully glared at Bella.
"Well, Bells, I'm trying to figure out why Rosalie has hundreds of boys chasing after her. I thought Emmett was bad enough. But now we have a boy at our door every night with flowers or chocolates." Alice laughed.
"You do realize I still like the nickname Bells? People are trying to make me kill them today." She shook her head, fanning out her brunette hair.
Behind the two sisters, Edward watched Bella's hair - entranced. How did she get her hair to be quite so shiny? And it always smelt of strawberries. And he meant always.
It was one of the many qualities of Bella that made Edward love her - in a brotherly way, of course.

Bella sat in the back of advanced English, fiddling with the edge of her paper. The teacher was droning on about something that she already knew - she had learned it last year from an assignment. Research was actually helpful. It allowed her to daydream in class.
Her thoughts drifted to her days as a kindergartener. A smile played on her lips as she remembered Alice's meltdown when the teacher tried to put a name tag on her. It grew even bigger when she remembered the tiny faces of Edward, Jasper, Jacob, and even Mike.
Sometimes she wished she could go back in time and relive her happiest days. Things had only gotten difficult from that time. In Grade One, her mother had come down with breast cancer. In Grade Two, she had been told her mother may not survive. Later that year she had recovered. In Grade Three Bella had lost Rosalie for a very long period of time. In Grade Four Jasper had been bullied, which was hard on Alice. In Grade Five, her teacher, Mrs. DiFrujah had tortured Alice for being strong willed and different. In Grade Six, Edward and Jasper had been in a car crash, and had come out with serious injuries.
This year Bella had yet to endure her torture. She sensed it would be more emotional than ever before.
Alice, who was sitting beside her, waved her hand in front of her face.
"Bella? Beeellllaaaa... Class is about to end." She whispered. Bella jerked back into the present day, and shook her head violently.
"Arg, sorry. Drifting, you know? I was just wishing I could go back into kindergarten. Be happy for no reason. Be silly, careless. See you spazz out because of a name tag." Bella grinned at her now pouting twin.
"One time. One time, and you hold it against me for an eternity. You have no soul, Miss Bella Swan. Heartless, absolutely heartless. HEARTLESS I SAY! You deserve endless night, with only blood to drink, and severed fingers to eat. YES, BLOOD!" Alice managed to say all of this in a whisper.
What a talented girl Alice was.
Bella rolled her eyes, and started to back up her books. The bell was to ring in a minute.
As soon as class was dismissed, Edward caught up to Bella. He also caught her as she started to fall. There was a lot of catching involved.
"Hey, Bella. I just had an idea. Would you and Alice like to come to our place on Saturday to sleep over? We have some good movies. We also have several comfortable mattresses stored in our basement for company." He finished. Bella raised an eyebrow.
"Is this Jasper's way of being with Alice every second of the day?"
"He was pretty ecstatic when I agreed to ask you and Alice..." Edward smirked, thinking the same thing as Bella. Jasper was infatuated. As was Alice. Ha. "So? Do you want to?"
"Fine. My mom and dad will be fine with it, and Alice will be as hyper as Jasper, perhaps more so." Bella laughed at the thought of Alice's face.
Meanwhile, a very excited Alice was bouncing around the courtyard. She had just envisioned Bella asking her for Edward and Jasper to sleep over at the Cullen mansion on Saturday.
--
As Bella and Alice stood in their room, Alice squeezed Bella in a hug. Bella could feel Alice bouncing in her spot. She was practically exploding with excitement.
"YES YES YES! Mom and dad better not object... What to wear? ..." Alice trailed off, her face suddenly panic stricken. "Wait... Um... Jasper told me...?" She squeaked. Bella raised an eyebrow for the second time that day.
"No. He didn't. How did you know?" Bella questioned. Alice shook in terror.
"Bella, please, please don't send me to an insane asylum. I have a feeling that it's happened before... To someone extremely like me." Alice twisted her hands nervously. "I really hope that you won't be afraid of me... But Bella... I can see the future."
Bella clamped her hands over her mouth to stop herself from screaming.
"You're a... psychic?"
--
Somewhere in a different universe, Mary Alice Brandon Whitlock Cullen snorted after coming out of a vision. A vampire-ified Bella looked up from her new copy of Wuthering Heights.
"What is it?" She asked softly.
Alice giggled. "I just had a vision. In said vision, you, Rose and I are all biological sisters. Humans. Our parents are Renee and Charlie. Many traumatic things are happening to us - and you and Edward are falling for each other. Jasper and I are already dating, it seems. What I saw was rather amusing. Mini-Me was telling you that she was a psychic. Your reaction was priceless." She snorted again.
Bella grinned. "Who knows? That could be happening right now somewhere. Ha."
