A/N: I'm not particularly happy with this chapter. I rewrote it three times before I finally decided it was at least suitable. Something about it felt rushed, or sort of forced. I also felt that it was a little bit scattered; but I figured that you guys deserved an update for being the amazing readers that you are! So let me know what you liked, what you think I should work on and hopefully the next chapter will be a little better... :D

Disclaimer: I don't own Twilight, but oh how I wish I did... :P

APOV

The last week has been pretty uneventful. The day after we had to miss school because of the sun was the start of winter break, so I spent the time hunting, and hanging out with my family. Not today though, today I have to go shopping because tomorrow will be the first day of school, and the first time I meet Bella! I've been so ecstatic the whole week that I forgot I needed to find a new outfit to wear. I know it's almost criminal of me right?!

That's why at this exact moment I am dragging Edward around the mall trying to find a suitable outfit. We have already been to almost every store in the mall and I have everything for my outfit except shoes. "Alice you have a closet just for your shoes at home, certainly you have a suitable pair of shoes in there somewhere!" Edward whines.

"Sure Edward I may have a suitable pair of shoes, but I don't have the perfect pair" I say while walking into another shoe store. "And I have to look perfect the first time I meet Bella!" I huff.

After looking around the store for about ten minutes my eyes land on the perfect pair of boots. I let out a squeal of delight, which causes Edward to look at me like I've grown two heads. "Are you ok Alice? Did you have vision?"

"No I didn't have a vision, and I'm fine, better than fine actually. I'm wonderful!" I say while picking up the boots to examine them further. They were black leather high heel boots and they came up to my knee, the fabric bunched up to create a slouchy effect. They would be just perfect!

"Ok…does this mean we can leave finally?" Edward asked while picking up the box and carrying it to the register. "Yes Edward, we can leave" I said.

Once we finished paying for my boots and loading all of my bags into the car. I hopped into the passenger side and let Edward drive us home, I mean it's the least I can do after I made him carry all of my bags and miss a hunting trip with Jasper and Emmet.

When we arrived home Jasper and Emmet were waiting on the front porch for us, having heard our approach. They came out to meet us at the car and help Edward carry all of my bags in. "Hey guys have a nice hunting trip?" I asked while stepping out of the car.

"I did," Jasper replied, "Emmet however was a little bit disappointed."

"I forgot that bears hibernate in the winter." Emmet replied while stomping his foot.

I, Edward, and Jasper all laughed at this as we walked up the front steps onto our porch. Once all of my bags were brought to my room the boys left to do whatever it is boys do. And I started to unpack everything at a human pace, to waste time. When I was almost done I was pulled into a vision.

Vision:

I and Bella were walking through the woods hand in hand, a comfortable silence surrounded us and everything seemed to be perfect. After a few more moments of silence I leaned up and pressed a kiss to her cheek. "What was that for?" She questioned while giggling.

"No reason, I just felt like it." I said while shrugging my shoulders. "Now come on." I said while picking her up bridal style and running at vampire speed.

"Alice…Where are…we…going?" She asked through fits of giggles. "It's a surprise." I said in a sing-song voice.

A few seconds later I stopped running just outside of the tree line that surrounded the meadow. I put Bella down so that she was facing me. "Close your eyes." I said while grabbing her hands.

"Ok, but you better not let me fall." She said before closing her eyes and grasping my hands tighter. "Never" I said as I leant up and gave her a pick on the lips and started walking backwards towards the meadow.

Once we were in the middle of the meadow I moved to her side and said, "Ok, you can open your eyes." She opened her eyes and immediately her face split into a full fledged grin. "It's beautiful!" she exclaimed while twirling around. I watched her twirl for a little bit before I scooped her up in my arms and plopped down on the ground with her in my lap.

"Thank you." She said before capturing my lips in a searing kiss. I responded immediately by picking her up and turning her around so that she was straddling me, never breaking the kiss. She nipped at my bottom lip begging for entrance, which I eagerly granted. She slipped her tongue into my mouth and ran it across my canines. Causing me to let out a moan, vampire fangs, whether fully extended or not are extremely sensitive. My grip on her waste tightened while she started running her hands through my hair. We pulled out of the kiss and I leant my forehead against hers. She was panting and still had her hands in my hair. After a moment she moved her hands away from my hair and cupped my cheeks.

"God, do you know what you do to me?" she asked, punctuating her sentence with a kiss at the end. "Do you know what you do to me, Isabella?" I retorted.

End of Vision

I pulled out of my vision and touched my lips. I could still feel the ghost of her lips on my skin. I don't know how long I laid there just remembering the vision, but I was pulled out of my reverie by the sun coming up over the horizon. I jumped up out of my bed and decided to go hunting before school.

BPOV

I groaned as I flailed my arm around looking for the off button on the atrocious contraption that is my alarm clock. Once I stopped its shrill beeping I threw the covers off of my body and was instantly assaulted with the chilly morning air. I walked over to my open window and looked up at the sky. "Yup," is sighed, just as I had predicted another rainy day in Forks, USA.

"Good Morning Mary." I said after a moment. "Good morning Bella!" she said in her wind chime voice. "Are you excited for school today?"

"Yeah, I am actually," I said while grabbing the watering can and sprinkling water on my pixies, who started dancing in the pseudo-rain shower I had created. Then I sprinkled some plant food onto the soil and laughed as they all started rejoicing. They act like I never feed them or something. I thought with a slight chuckle. "Thanks Bella," Mary said while still dancing around. "You're welcome guys," I said as I walked out of my room slipping on a pair of tennis shoes and a jacket on my way.

I headed out back to check on my garden that Charlie had allowed me to plant in his backyard. That was Grams present to me, the bag she gave me contained a copious amount of seeds from all different varieties of plants. I bent down to examine my garden and was pleased to notice that some of them had already started to push up above the soil. Once I was done examining my garden I walked back into the house and headed for the shower.

Once I stepped out of the shower I headed back into my bedroom to get dressed. I grabbed a pair of black skinny jeans some underwear a bra and a fitted Never Shout Never band t. It was red with 'never shout never' written in black to look like it was scribbled on there. Once I was dressed I completed the outfit with a black and silver studded belt and my Converse. I ran a brush through my hair and decided to let it air dry today so it would have a little bit of natural curl in it.

Then I headed downstairs. I decided on eggs for breakfast and once I was done eating I ran back upstairs to brush my teeth and grab my school bag. I looked at the clock and it read 8:15am. School doesn't start until 9 so I should have plenty of time to get my schedule and find my classes before school starts. "Goodbye Bella," Mary said as I was exiting my room. "See you after school Mary" I said, rushing downstairs.

I grabbed the keys to my car Charlie had given me on my second day here so I wouldn't have to walk everywhere I went. It's a black mustang with red racing stripes. I absolutely adore it. Charlie got it from his friend on the reservation who's son works on cars, apparently Charlie had him custom paint it for me.

It only took me about 10 minutes to get to school and when I pulled into the parking I pleasantly noted that there were only a few cars here already. I stepped out of my car and made my way to the front office. There was an elderly lady sitting behind a desk. I walked up to the desk as she asked me, "Can I help you?"

"I'm Bella Swan, the new student." I said while adjusting my bag. "Oh, you're Charlie's daughter." She said while grabbing a stack of papers on her desk and handing them to me. "Here is your schedule, a map of the school, just in case, and a slip that you need to have signed by all of your teachers. "

I muttered thanks as I walked out of the office and looked over my schedule.

AP History

AP Calculus

Study Hall

Botany

Lunch

AP English

Biology

I was homeschooled by Renea when I was in Phoenix so I was advanced compared to most people in my grade. I was extremely excited when I learned they had a Botany course, but I guess considering that Forks is surrounded by forest it should have come as no surprise.

When I looked up from my schedule I noticed that the parking lot had filled up considerably. Most of the cars were old hand me downs except for one, a silver Volvo. I wonder who that belongs to…

I started walking toward my first hour class and made it just before the bell rang. I took my slip up to my teacher and he signed it while the rest of the students filed in. After he handed me back my slip I turned around and scanned the room for a place to sit. There were only two seats open. Once was next to some girl that looked to be the gossip queen of the school from how much she was talking; and the other next to some guy who looked to be in a considerable amount of pain. I chose the one by the guy in pain rather than the school gossip queen. That would be the last thing I needed.

I sat down in my seat and pulled out my notebook. While I waited for the teacher to start class the guy next to me turned in his seat so that he was facing me. "Hi, my names Jasper Cullen." He said.

"Bella Swan" I said while turning to face him more. We made small talk for the next few minutes it ended with him asking me if I would like to eat lunch with him and his family before the teacher called the class to attention. Mr. Cooper was saying something about FDR and The New Deal before I zoned out. I was pulled back into reality by the bell.

I gathered up my books and said bye to Jasper before heading to my Calculus class. It went by uneventfully as did study hall, and after I dropped my books off at my locker I headed around the back of the school towards the greenhouse. When I arrived I was told that the class is run like a huge class project and we will be graded based on our effort, not the amount of plants we can grow. The teacher also said that at the end of the year the students sell all of the plants to buy seeds, and pay for the water, and soil, and other expenses.

In Botany I met Angela Webber. She seemed sweet and even invited me to have lunch with her. I told her that I was eating lunch with the Cullen's but thanks anyways. When the bell rang signaling lunch we all cleaned up and headed toward the lunch room. Me and Angela walked there in a comfortable silence and stepped into line. I picked up an apple, some yogurt, and water and paid.

Just as me and Angela were about to part ways a beautiful girl danced in front of us. Her skin was pale, even compared to me. She had short black hair that was sticking out in all different directions. She had on a white tank with a black vest over it that clung to her body like it was a second skin. She also had on grey skinny jeans and black high heel boots that came up to her knees. Even with the added height she was still shorter than me. Fucking Sexy was the first thought I had. The second was she is completely out of my league. After that thought she spoke

"Hello Angela," she said with a smile. God if I thought she was sexy her voice was orgasmic. It was like an angel speaking directly from heaven. "Hey Alice," Angela said. "What are you doing here?" she asked.

"I came to escort this beautiful young lady to our table." She said causing me to blush." you can come to if you would like." She said while hooking her arm through mine, causing my blush to deepen. "Are you sure the rest of your family won't mind?" Angela asked with a shy smile.

"I'm sure." She said while leading us over to the table, arm still linked with mine.

Once we arrived at the table Alice introduced me and Angela to her family. "I don't believe you've been formally introduced yet. This Emmett, Rose, you've already met Jasper, and this is Edward." She said while pointing to each one of them in turn. "Hey guys." I said while I went to take a seat next to Alice and Angela went to sit between Alice and Edward.

Angela, Edward, and Jasper started discussing some history assignment we just received, and I and Alice floated off into our own little world. I almost felt bad for ignoring Angela, but any guilt I could have felt was washed away before it had a chance to register it was ever there. Plus Angela didn't seem to mind being left to talk to Edward; I think she has a crush on him. Not that I blame her, he was handsome, but I prefer the shorter, fairer, more pixie-like Cullen.

"You're excruciatingly cute when you blush you know." Alice said, referring to my earlier state. "I'm not cute" I huffed while taking a bite of my apple. "Yes you are." She said, her tone leaving no room for argument.

I just continued to chew on my apple until she asked me, "What is your favorite color?"

"Blue." I replied thankful for the change of topic. "What's yours?" "Today, purple, tomorrow I'm not sure." She said causing me to chuckle. "I guess I'll have to ask you every day then wont I." I said still giggling. "Does that mean you want to eat lung with me every day?" She asked the excitement evident in her voice.

"Until a better offer comes along…" I joked. "Like what, Mike Newton?!" she quipped. "Ugh no," I said shuddering at the mere thought. She seemed to think this was extremely hilarious because she busted out laughing.

Once she was done laughing at my obvious discomfort she asked, "What class do you have next?" I pulled out my schedule and handed it to her. "Awesome, we have English together!" said while basically bouncing in her seat. Right about that time the Bell rang and everyone stood up.

Angela and Edward headed off to Biology while Alice and I headed to English. Alice's locker was just down the hall for mine so we stopped by hers so she could grab her books, and then we dropped by my locker so I could do the same. We walked into class and I sat beside Alice in a seat on the back row in the corner of the class room. When the teacher arrived I walked to the front of the class and had her sign my slip and found out that they were reading "Wuthering Heights".

Lucky enough for me it was one of my favorite books so I had read many times. I walked back to my seat to talk with Alice while the teacher prepared for class.

"Bella do you have any plans today?" Alice asked while turning to face me. "Not yet, why?" I asked. "Good, because we are hanging out." She said while opening her copy of Wuthering Heights and getting ready to start class.

Reviews make my heart swell to Brobdingnagian proportions!!!
