HI to all

HI to all!! Hope your all good and cruising through life. Anyways, I thought of this chapter a while ago and it may suck but I need to write it cause my system won't let me get past it so here it goes.

Remember Constructive criticism is welcoming.

This is dedicated to Myf.13 for your reviews and cause your poems are AWSOME!

My fave is the Rosalie one, it is absolutely beautiful.

Disclaimer: Lets say if I owned Twilight, I wouldn't still be searching for vampires.

"Edward! I haven't seen you in weeks!"

"Oh! Isabella! Yea, I've been pretty busy, sorry."

"Since when have I been Isabella? And doing what? It's nearly summer vacation; we haven't even been getting homework!"

"Look, I'm just busy, Ok? I really don't have the time. I'm going to meet someone."

"Who? Its lunch and the first time I've seen you at it in ages! Please sit with me? We always sit together and lately, well…You never seem to be around. Alice is a horrible liar by the way. As if you would be at the museum, you're scared of the dinosaur fossils!"

"Never tell anyone that! I can't be seen as a wimp! "

"Well, come sit with me then!"

"Look, Bells, I just can't today."

"You never can anymore! You know what? Just go, I can't stand it anymore! Don't think I haven't seen you with Mike Newton and his vile friends! I thought I was your friend! I guess I wasn't good enough for you!"

"NO! Wait, BELLA! Damn it!"

Trig finished as the bell went and I stood up collecting my books. It was time for lunch and I didn't know what to do. I really didn't want to go and sit at the Cullen's table, even though I knew Edward wouldn't be there. He was always sitting with his mates and his girlfriend of the hour.

Thinking of him brought on a rush of emotion, something that hadn't happened in a while. All day I had been glared at by the I-LUV-EDWARD fan club (yes there is such thing) and one girl even came up to me and spat in my face. I had jocks giving me the evil eye because the star player was out and received death threats via the student note chain in class.

There was a plus side though. All the guys who had lost their girlfriends because of Edward came up and congratulated me; one guy gave me a bouquet of flowers. I was pretty sure that the few who were on my side were out-numbered though, and I wasn't looking forward to entering the cafeteria.

It was as I was walking into the cafeteria, trying to make up an excuse as to why I couldn't sit with my old friends, when my clumsiness got the better of me. Again.

I was bracing myself for the impact of the floor when I felt an arm shoot out and snake around my waste. It took a moment for me to realize that I wouldn't be embarrassing myself in front of the school, but when it finally registered, I quickly stood up. There was only one person who moved quickly enough to catch me and this was the one person I didn't want to see.

I looked up, fighting my tell-tale blush, and looked straight into the green-eyes of my former best friend.

Although I had broken his nose the day before, I hadn't actually been this close to Edward since I gave him a black eye.

That is something I won't bring up, I thought

"Well if it isn't Bouncy Bella!" A snarling voice said from my left.

I dragged my eyes away from Edwards and looked straight into the ones of Lauren Malory. I hadn't been called Bouncy Bella in two years and I sure as hell wasn't about to be called it again.

I was never a large kid, far from it, but after a certain incident involving myself and Lauren with a cow, people had started calling me Bouncy Bella. This had started because Jessica Stanly, Laurens side-kick, went around telling people that I had weekly injections to stop fat from growing on my waste, otherwise it would wobble and bounce everywhere. I was hurt by it greatly, not because of her calling me that but because he had.

I was about to say something back to Lauren when I heard a shout from across the room.

"BELLA!"

A pixie-like girl with black hair came knocking into me and before I knew it, I was enveloped in a hug. I looked down slightly to see Alice jumping up and down at my side, unable to hold in her excitement.

"Alice! Let her breath! Sorry Bella, couldn't hold her down"

"It's alright Jasper, I forgive you." He looked sheepishly at me and I grinned back. My smile wasn't forced, it came naturally. I looked around and saw Emmett walking towards us, a smile spread from ear to ear. As he came to a stop at my side, he stared at the people around me and his smile dropped.

"Edward, it's time you and your little girlfriend left."

I looked behind me and saw Edward staring at me, the expression on his face I could not read.

"Malory, move it NOW!" Alice said, already walking off to her own table. Jasper followed with Emmett shortly after and I had no choice but to trail behind, fully aware of the whole cafeteria staring at us.

I realized that I hadn't thanked Edward for catching me and turned around lowly.

"Thanks." I said but he only glared at me until Lauren grabbed his arm and dragged him away.

Oh Well. What could you expect?

I didn't know what to expect, but I thought I would have gotten more then that.

I had seen the old Edward in there, hidden, but there.

I sighed and sat down at the table my, old and now new friends, were at.

"Bella, this is Rosalie. Rose, Bella" I looked at the beautiful blond Emmett was introducing to me and smiled. She was perfect for him.

"So you're the Bella he's always talking about. Nice to meet you." She grinned at me and looked genuinely glad to meet me.

"Yeah, guess I am…wait, Alice, what are you doing?"

As I had been talking, Alice had been checking every inch of me and had decided that my face wasn't covered in make-up. Since she was about five, she had carried around a bag full of make-up and a spear set of clothes, only god knows why!

"Alice! Let Bella breath! God, sorry Bella," Emmett began to apologize. I quickly cut him off and told him it was alright.

We spent the next forty-five minutes catching up, and I had to admit, I felt pretty good.

I got up slowly when the bell rang and waved good-bye, knowing that it wouldn't be the last time.

That afternoon as I walked through the front door, I found an envelope with a freesia attached. Inside there was a note, which when I read, brought tears to my eyes.

I promised
