Bella's POV:
I quickly jumped out of my Chevy truck, very embarressed. The two new girls were by their cars, a black convertable and a red Porsche. Just then, a familar voice called me from the other side of the lot. It was Alice Cullen. She smiled a large grin and continued hollering my name. I didn't really want to go see the Cullen's, but it wasn't me to ignore the little pixie. The way she kept calling me, know one could. So, I took it to my advantage and used her call to escape me from humiliation.
"Hi Alice," I muttered, trying to keep my tone as cheerful as possible. Then, I turned to my ex boyfriend. "Hello Edward"
A few months ago, the whole Cullen family had left, including Edward. Right before he left, he told me he didn't love me anymore. He tore my heart to pieces and I was barely able to move on. I had started visiting La Push to see my childhood friend Jacob Black. We usually ended up talking in his shed while he had been trying to build his Rabbit. After awhile, I started spending all my time there after every school day. Then, for some reason, the Cullen's returned. Edward had wanted to take me back, but I had moved on. I was in with the werewolves now. I smiled at him and pitied him at the same time. He was back to where he had started before he had met me; alone. Sometimes it did seem like he still held his feelings toward me, but I no longer cared about him. All that love has and is going to Jake.
I hastily turned around and headed toward the new girls. The older one, and the owner of the convertable, grasped the haul with so much tension her veins were visible in her knuckles. I knew they were vampires. They're pale skin resembled the Cullen's and so did their black coal eyes. Not only that, but they were amazingly beautiful; an unhumanly beauty. Because the oldest girl's anger seemed to be fixed on me, I decided to talk to the more calm and relaxed vampire.
"Hello," I said formally, but cheerfully. "I am Bella Swan"
The younger more lively girl noticed my voice was dirrected to her and not her sister. "Hi! I'm Belle Anna Marie Grace and this my sister Luna Grace! Nice to meetcha"
"It was nice to mee you too." I gazed at the two cars. "Oh, and I love your cars!" As I walked away to my homeroom, Luna's glare boared a whole in my back.
Luna's POV:
Now, I wished I were as dead as my vampire parents. Every freakin' class that we have had, the teacher would make Belle and I (we had all our classes together) introduce ourselves. Even worse, every boy in any of the few classes we had before lunch asked to escort us. I obviously replied with a silple "no", but Belle had to be all modest and say things like "Well, okay!" and "Sure, that sounds nice!" I ended up always walking alone to the next classes. If my life didn't already suck enough, Edward was so far in none of my classes! Most every one of my classes, I imagined his gorgeous face and bronze hair. I didn't even know him and yet, I was head over heels. I didn't even know if he returned the same feelings, I mean, we really only met when I was mindlessly looking through the window of his Volvo. "Hey Luna!" Belle yelled after Trigometrey had ended and we were headed to the cafeteria. "Would you happen to know what there is on the menu for lunch"
"Let's see," I said apatheticly. "Well, I don't know either and I don't think it matters. We don't eat"
"Good point..." She waltzed ahead of me while I took my time. It was only a few paces away.
I entered the cafeteria and took a place at an empty table. My palm held my wrist for a long time until someone set a tray down next to me. Belle. She had an apple on her plate and milk on the side. She pushed it to the in distaste, but her eyes stayed focused on the apple.
"Did you know," she started."That the apple is known as the 'forbidden fruit"
"I believe I have heard someone say that..." I said. "But I also heard this 'The forbidden fruit is always sweetest.' I can't relate, because I never had an apple in my childhood, I loved kiwi and strawberries"
"The quote must also be related to something else...love"
"Possibly. That's a good point." My eyes travelled around the room. Then, I saw a table occupied by five people, the Cullen's. Belle whispered in my ear what the teenage boys knew about them. The biggest, most muscular guy was Emmett Cullen, the model blonde was Rosalie Cullen, the blond boy was Jasper Cullen, and the last two were in fact Edward and Alice.
"They're all orphans," Belle stated. "They aren't related in anyway. Dr. Cullen and Mrs. Cullen adopted them." Now I understood why they all appeared so different. Though I was learning about each and every one of them, my eyes stayed locked on Edward. I was ready to kill Belle when she asked who I was staring at, because Edward abruptly turned to face me. I dare not move, knowing his expression would be similar if not a glare. But I was wrong. He seemed content and just watched me. He took in every one of my features and stopped last at my eyes. Our eyes were the same; black and endless like a black hole and impossible to read.
When I finally pulled away, nearly everyone had left. Belle tugged on my brunette hair, trying to get me to get up. I flicked her forehead, a note that I was listening. As we exitted the cafe, Belle asked, "What --- or who --- were you staring at to keep you from moving, and not to mention breathing"
"None of your buisness," I replied. "Nothing I'm oblidged to tell you." We entered the Biology roomand walked toward the teacher. Belle was pointed to the front and when he pointed to my partner, I nearly died. Sitting there, watching me like at lunch, was Edward Cullen.
Cliffhanger! (Very evil cliffhanger)
