Monday soon came and I smiled when getting up, Emmett helped me get dressed, I decided on a back light wash jeans and a white t-shirt. I got a black and white hat down from the top of my wardrobe. I put on my dark blue Nike shoes that had three white strips on the side, they looked like the shoes Justin Bieber wore. I shrugged, I didn't really care, the girls loved Justin Bieber.
Emmett patted my back and smiled at me, he went to his room to get dressed, I got my backpack and slung it over my shoulder.
I went downstairs and sat down at the breakfast bar next to Alice. I smiled at her and she passed me two slices of toast and a pancake.
"Thanks." I whispered.
"No problem." She smiled.
I put jam on my toast and ate, Carlisle was taking Alice to get her yearly check up at the hospital so she wouldn't be in school until later.
Emmett and I got ready and put our lunch in our bags and went out to Esme's car.
I got in and slouched a bit in my seat, Emmett was listening to his Ipod and Esme was driving carefully down the highway. I smiled when she pulled up at the school.
Emmett got out and so did I, Esme hugged him and he went in the building, "Okay Edward, lets get you sorted." She smiled.
I nodded and we walked into the school, it was nice . . .very colorful. I smiled when she stopped at a door, she knocked on it and a petit blond haired lady came to the door. She smiled at Esme.
"Good morning Ms. Parker, this is Edward, he is starting today." She told her.
"Yes of course," Ms. Parker smiled. "Right this way Edward we will get you settled." She said, gesturing to the classroom behind her.
I smiled and Esme held my shoulders, "See you at 3o'clock Edward."
I nodded and hugged her, she kissed both of my cheeks and held me tightly, she turned me gently towards the classroom and softly pushed me forward.
I walked in and the teacher led me to the back of the class, "This will be your seat for the rest of the year Edward, for the first three classes you need a pen, pencil, eraser and four copy books." I nodded.
I looked around me, there were about thirty children all in different groups, I presumed they were talking to the there friends.
The bell went and everyone took there seats. Two boys were sat either side of me, to my left was a boy with sandy blond hair, he had his desk very organized.
The boy to my right had black hair, he was tanned as if he had come back from a holiday.
I heard a girl giggle and I looked on front of me, there was two girls staring at me. But when I looked at them they looked away, both blushing because they had been caught.
I sat back in my chair and listened to the teacher, we first did history then moved onto math. It was surprisingly easy. But I found geography hard, I just didn't get it, I knew all the states and how the maps worked but I just didn't get parts of it.
The bell rang and the teacher announced that we had recess for 15minutes. I smiled, I turned to my left and got a granola bar out of my bag.
"Hey, I'm Mike, your Edward Cullen, right?" He said.
I looked up at the blond haired boy and smiled, "Yeah . . ." I was cut off in what I wanted to say when a fist connected to my back.
I looked behind me, the boy that had black hair and sat beside me in class did it. The punch didn't hurt, it was just kind of weird that he would hit me when I had only been here for three hours.
I turned back to Mike rolling my eyes. He looked at me confused but stood up, I did the same and we walked outside.
"That was weird." I stated.
Mike laughed, "No its not, that was Mathew, he is a bully but he looked kind of scared when you turned around." Mike mused.
I shrugged, a few boys walked up to us and I took a seat on the swing, "Hey guys, this is Edward, Edward this is Tyler . . ." He pointed to a tall boy with brown hair and dark skin, " . . . This is Eric," He pointed to a petit boy that had pale skin and black hair. "That's Jasper," He pointed towards a boy that had blond honey colored hair.
They all said hey and I nodded politely back. I heard another giggle behind me and I looked to see three girls sitting on the grass. They were kind of close and I felt a bit uncomfortable. I continued eating my granola bar as if it was nothing.
"Someone is a bit popular." Jasper muttered, laughing.
"Whatever . . ." I whispered.
"Mathew wont be happy, you steal his spot light." Eric chimed.
"I didn't steal anything." I said. The last thing I wanted to do was cause problems on my first day and to be honest I wasn't interested in girls yet.
"Even if you did, Mathew still wont be happy." He told me.
I sighed and shook it off. The bell rang and we all walked in. I saw Alice and she came over to me.
"Hey, you okay? I heard about Mathew." She whispered.
"I am fine, don't worry and please don't tell mom." I said.
She sighed, "Fine but if it gets to be more than a punch or a daily thing, I am for sure telling her. You don't deserve to be punched any more." I smiled and nodded.
We continued school and I signed up for basketball, football, swimming, tennis and softball.
After school Alice and I waited on the bench for mom to come, Emmett was at practice and wouldn't be home until this evening. When Esme pulled up, I beat Alice to shot gun and she frowned and got into the backseat.
I laughed and closed the door, Esme pulled away from the curb and asked me about my day.
I told her that it was fun and I really enjoyed it, I left out the part of what Mathew did, she didn't need to worry.
When we got home, Alice and I did our homework at the kitchen table. Alice was really smart and helped me with my geography homework. I thanked her and when we were done I went up to my room and found Esme there, she was putting away clothes.
I smiled at her. "Edward, do you want to put on sweats?" She asked.
I nodded and she handed me basketball shorts, I decided to leave on my t-shirt. I went back downstairs and sat in the living room with Alice.
She looked at me and smiled, "Want to go outside and play basketball?"
I nodded and we went to the garage first, we got out two basketballs and raced outside. Alice and I started to shoot first, then we played a one on one match. I won, Alice didn't know how to play, but I was glad that she showed an interest in playing with me.
We sat down after about a half hour.
"So I saw you hanging out with Mike, Tyler, Eric and . . . Jasper." I saw her blush when she said Jasper's name.
I smiled, "Yeah there really cool guys, and I like them. Do you know who those two girls were behind me?" I asked.
"Oh that's Lauren and Jessica, they think there so popular but there not." She rolled her eyes, "The brown haired girl Jessica thinks your hot, I overheard her telling Lauren." She whispered.
I nodded, "I am not interested in girls." I whispered.
"Yeah neither is Emmett." She told me.
I nodded and looked up when Esme called us for dinner, Carlisle pulled up and Emmett ran over to us, "Hey guys." He said, he was sweaty so I knew he had just come from practice.
"Hey, what sport were you playing?" I asked him.
"Basketball, oh and I got your timetable for sports, coach gave it to me, I will give it to you later." He told me.
I half hugged him, "Thanks."
Carlisle came up to us and hugged Alice and I and then Emmett, "Come on kids, time for dinner. Have you all done your homework?" He asked.
"Yep." Alice and I said.
Emmett frowned, "Nope."
Carlisle laughed, "Well lets make that nope into a yep." He said in such enthusiasm.
I smiled and went to the bathroom, washing my hands, I sat at the table and looked at the dinner set out. It looked delicious, there was mash potatoes, chicken wings, kebabs, all types of vegetables and gravy.
I licked my lips, yummy . . .
