Worry was gushing through my head as I drove home. How was I gonna get through this? Confusion was also filling my head. Did they seriously not notice what I was? The Cullen who sat next to me didn't even seem to be threatened by my presence. My mind was loaded with questions, fears, and stress.

When I arrived on my driveway, I waited outside like I did everyday. When the truck door finally opened, the wind rushed in one of my favorite scents. Make up powder and floral scented soap.

Aunt Lucy climbed in to the truck, ready for me to take her to work. Aunt Lucy was my legal guardian, but to me she was so much more, she was the one who had took me in when I had absolutely nothing. If it wasn't for her, I would probably be in an orphanage, or maybe somewhere else. She treated me like I was her own daughter and for that I would always be thankful.

"So how was your first day Bells?" she asked.

"Oh... it was fine," I sighed. She looked at me from out of the corner of her eye and I knew she could immediately tell that something was bothering me.

"Oh no, what happened?"

"Nothing, you know I hate attention. I think I got too much of that today, that's all." I told her, covering up for my real problem. Aunt Lucy knew about the mythical beings and all, so I didn't have to hide anything from her, but I just didn't feel like having her go off to work all worried about me.

"That will go away with in the next couple days, don't worry." she said as she tugged some strands of my hair behind my ear.

"I sure hope so."

When we got the bakery where she worked at, I turned off the car and got out with her. I loved coming in the bakery, the smell of it was so alluring. The ladies who work there are all good friends of Lucy's. Mrs. Clearwater, Seth's mom, works here too so its always nice to visit her. Another reason I loved coming inside was because they always gave me some butter cookies for free, they were my favorite so they always had them ready for me.

I drove to the reservation to meet up with the pack like I did on most days. When I got there, I parked my truck at Billy's house and went inside to grab a soda. Billy was seated in front of the T.V. Watching some show about psychic children.

"Hey Bella, how was the new school?"

"It was alright," My voice came out more pessimistic than I had planned.

"Make any new friends?"

"Well...," I didn't know if the kid named Mike counted as a friend yet, and I sure as hell knew that Jessica girl didn't. " No, not really."

"Soon enough, Bella, don't worry, soon enough"

I searched through their refrigerator and looked for a Pepsi, my favorite drink. Thankfully they did have some. I decided to take it with me on the go.

"We remembered to get Pepsi this time, we know you love it," Billy stated as I headed out the door.

"Thank you," I gave him a big smile just before I left.

I walked toward the place where we always met. It was like a large meadow, maybe half a football field, surrounded by trees. It was pretty far out, so it took me some time to get there, but no more than 40 minutes. I could have phased but I was still drinking my Pepsi, plus I didn't feel like it.

When I arrived, everybody was already there, in human form, laying on the ground. I finished the last of my soda and then dropped the can on the ground next to where I was gonna sit.

"Hey, don't litter," sassed Quil.

"Well, its not like there's a trash can around here," I said as I sat down next to Jared.

"So? Don't do it."

"Fine, I'll take it home with me, just calm down."

"Shut up Quil so she can tell us about her new school" Jacob said, a little annoyed.

"Yeah, was it fun?" asked Seth

"Fun isn't the word I would use to describe it."

"So it didn't go so well?" asked Leah.

"It was alright I guess. But the classes were boring without you guys, and lunch is too late into the day. You have to wait four classes before lunch. I was starving."

"Shit! That's a long time to wait for food. I would have to sneak some in during class or something" Jared said.

" I might have to," I laughed.

"Bella," Sam all of a sudden said. I looked up at him at his position leaning against a tree. "How about the Cullens, what happened with them?" His face was serious when he looked at me. And all of a sudden everyone else' faces also turned hard and solemn. The hatred that everyone felt for the Cullens was so powerful, you could feel it in the air. The only one who wasn't affected by the question was Seth, who seemed just as uncomfortable as me.

"Nothing. They didn't get in my way and I didn't get in theirs." I didn't want to tell Sam, especially in front of the others, about having a class with one of the Cullens, but I knew that it was my responsibility to do so.

"But there is one thing..."

"What?" asked Sam, getting tense again, everyone else following his emotion.

I got nervous having everyone wait on my answer so I quickly changed it, telling the truth but not telling them everything.

" I have lunch with all the Cullens," Sam's eyes widened, taken aback by my answer. I backtracked a bit and tried to make it look harmless. "But they didn't seem bothered by my presence, so I don't think there will be any problems between us."

"How can you be so sure?" Sam questioned.

"They would have already said something to me, but they just ignored me instead."

"I don't know about this anymore..."

" I don't think they'd do anything, that would draw attention to them. They treasure their secret just as much as we do ours." stated Leah.

"That's true," Sam agreed. "I guess its okay for you to keep going to that school, but as soon as something happens, you have to tell us Bella."

"Of course."

"Alright then, I guess we better do a quick patrol."

To have told Sam would probably have been the best thing to do, but I knew that it would have caused some kind of problem. It would have been blown out of proportion for sure.

Its better if I handle it myself, I have way better self control than any of these guys. I'm gonna have to to talk to the vampire and let him know the circumstance that were in.

If the Cullens were the ones who wanted peace before, they'd probably still want to keep it that way, right?

The patrolling went by fast without me really paying to much attention to it. I had so many things on my mind that I barely felt the time go by. By the time it was over, I had already come up with the speech I was gonna give to Cullen. And this was one of those moments where I was thankful that no one in the pack could see what was going through my head.

When we finished, I went back to Jacob's house to get my truck and head home. I went inside quickly to say goodbye to Billy. He asked me to stay for dinner, but I kindly refused with the excuse that Lucy had wanted me to come home and eat. As I was leaving, Jacob was walking behind me and without warning, tugged on my hair.

"What?" I said with a laugh, as I turned around to face him.

"Nothing, its just your hair is getting long."

"Yeah I know," I reached behind me to grab my hair. It was maybe 4 or 5 inches past my shoulders.

"Are you gonna cut it?"

"No, the length of my fur doesn't really seem to be affected by length of my hair".

"You think its another difference?"

"Probably."

He laughed, "Well then this is a good difference, you won't have to shave your head bald."

"That's true. Damn and I was looking forward to that."

"I'm sure you were."

"So did you enjoy English class without me?"

"No, I had no one to talk too. Plus, now that your gone, Mr. Richard ignores me completely. Today he accidentally skipped my desk and I had to go ask him for the assignment he handed out. I don't even think he likes me."

"I'm sorry," I laughed, "That's weird, I wonder why."

"I know why, because he didn't like me near you, and because he's in love with you." he smirked.

"Eww, see now that's nasty." I laughed.

"You know its true."

"I think its time for me to leave," I said, giggling lightly.

"Alright then, I guess I'll see you tomorrow"

"Okay, text me during school."

"Maybe I will, maybe I won't," he grinned at me.

"You know what Jacob, I don't need you to text me. I was just being friendly," I grinned back to make sure he knew I was playing.

"Sure you don't," He laughed. I laughed too and told him bye.

I went home and ate with Aunt Lucy, who made spaghetti. She knew it was one of my favorites so she was probably trying to get me to stop worrying over school. She could tell there was still something bothering me but only asked once while I washed the dishes, after that she didn't bring up the subject again. A while later, I went upstairs and got ready for bed. I fell asleep trying to memorize the exact words I was gonna say to the vampire tomorrow in class.
