AN: Thanks to everyone who reviewed. It's very encouraging! In the coming chapters, Edward gets a little geekier. It's just a trait he has that we all LOVE. ッ

Luckily for me, the principal agreed and made sure Mike and his followers were there first.
All we had to do now was wait.
Bella Swan
It was 5 minutes till the bell for lunch rang. Any minute now, the principal would call everyone to the gym. Mike and his friends were already called down and he's probably wondering what it has to do with him. The time was ticking down to the second where Edward's life would change for the better.
"Excuse me. Would all students please report to the gym for a brief assembly."
Finally! That was the longest five minutes of my life. I meet up with Alice, Rose, Jasper and Emmett right before we went into the gym. I took a look around and seen that everyone was doing what we told them to.
We quickly slid the objects on and hurriedly passed into the gym doors….

Me, Lauren, Jessica and Tyler were all called into the gym earlier for some sort of assembly. Why couldn't the principal just tell us what they had to say over the P.A. It didn't matter either way. At least we got to miss class for a period of time.
"What do you, like think they want us for?" Lauren asked. Sometimes I don't know why I hang out with her. She's soo stupid but totally hot! She has no brains but I just use her and Jessica as fuck buddies.
"I don't know. I just wish they would hurry this up. We have a Geek to torture." Tyler said with a laugh. That new kid Edward is really getting on my nerves. He just oozes 'Geek'. I never told anyone, but back in California I was the geek. Everyone would make fun of me because I had glasses and braces. I hated glasses with a passion. People would always take them from me and usually break them or hide them somewhere in the school. That's why I like to pick on geeks. They remind me of what I used to be and I take out my hatred and anger out on the losers.
Also, Bella seems to have taken a liking to Edward. Everyone knows that I like her. He seems to be the only one who doesn't have a clue. If I can't have her, then he can't either.
"Excuse me. Would all students please report to the gym for a brief assembly."
Thank God! Finally we can get this over with.
When everyone walked in, I was completely frozen with shock. I turned to look at the others and they all had the same expression. Their mouths open and eyes wide.
"What the like fuck is that?" Jessica asked. I just shook my head and couldn't respond.
"This has to be some kind of joke." Tyler was trying to get over the fact that everyone that just walked into the gym was wearing glasses. And not just any glasses, Edwards geeky glasses. When I looked over, I saw Bella, Alice, Jasper, Rosalie and Emmett looking at us smirking. I knew then that this was their idea.
When the principal walked into the gym, she had a pair of fucking geeky glasses plastered to her face also. They couldn't just be doing this for Edward's sake.

Bella Swan
This was the funniest thing I had ever seen. Mike and his posse were staring wide eyed and mouths hanging open, at everyone in the gym. Everyone was wearing a pair of glasses that looked similar to Edward's.
When Mike looked over at us, he saw that we were smirking.
Just then the principal walked in. She had a smile on her face and was looking directly at Mike, Jessica, Lauren and Tyler.
I looked around but I didn't see Edward. I knew he was at school, but he wasn't here. I hope he comes into the gym soon. I want to see what he will do. I just don't want him to be mad at me.
"As many of you figured out, we are having an assembly because we have a problem. I'm not going to mention any names, but I'm sure you know there have been a few students bullying others because they wear glasses. I know many of you are above the maturity level to stoop so low as to make fun of somebody because of an article of clothing or in this case, glasses, but we seem to have a few students who aren't mature enough."
I looked one more time, trying to see if Edward was anywhere to be seen. Just as I was going to give up, I saw him sitting in the back of the gym, listening intently to what the principal was saying. He didn't seem to look mad, but then again he wasn't showing any emotion.
After the principal finished giving her speech on bullying, Mike and his followers were given a detention for 3 hours after school for the next 2 weeks. I personally think he deserves more than 2 weeks, only because bullying physically and emotionally hurts people. Especially Edward, even though he doesn't show it.
I finally can admit it. I have a huge crush on Edward. I haven't been able to really get to know him, but he can be really sweet, kind and loving.
After everyone was dismissed, we headed to our next class. I had Biology with Edward. Great time to have, hopefully, the best conversation of my life.
AN: Sorry this took me so long to get out. Yesterday I went to an Exhibition and got home around 11:30 with a pounding headache. I woke up really late today, and got working on this chapter. Hopefully it's written to everybody's expectations. I think I might start doing Edward's POV. The only POV's that I have planned for this story are Bella's and Edward's, with the exception of Mike's in this chapter. It was just easier to write that scene from his prospective, and to get into his mind. Also it gives you the reason for Mike picking on Edward. Please Review and tell me what you think. It's very encouraging!
