I turned off my radio and joined my siblings at our usual lunch table. Alice had been blocking her mind all night, so I guess something 'good' is going to happen today.

"What is going to happen today, Alice?" I asked her.

"Oh, you'll see in 10...9…8…7…6…5…4…3…2…" She pointed to the door. I looked up, everyone stopped talking, and a beautiful girl came into the cafeteria. Lauren walked up to her and tapped her shoulder.

"Hi. I'm Lauren. This is my school. You try to take it, and I'm going to give you my full wrath, got it?" Lauren said, with anger in her voice.

"OH NO! A pathetic little human whom I could crush with my pinky, or even my telepathy! What ever shall I do!" she shouted. I looked to my family and all the others in the cafeteria. Apparently, it was her thoughts.

"Oh, I wouldn't DREM of taking your school! Although, I really could do without your smell." Everyone started laughing, and Lauren burned bright red and stomped off.

She looked over directly to our table after all the curious gazes had left her. She seemed to of been assessing us all. She took in a shaky breath and suddenly all Cullen and Hale eyes were on her.

"God, I hope I remembered my contacts today, otherwise, telepathy can't really get me out of this one." She walked directly up to us and sat down. My eyes never left her.

"Hi. I'm Bella Swan. And you are?" She said, smiling. Alice had a vision of her and Bella shopping today after school. She perked right up.

"I'm Alice! We are going to be best friends! I just know it!" She hopped up and gave Bella a hug.

"Uh, hi. I think." She replied, with an odd look on her face.

"Please don't tell them?" Bella asked Alice, no one but me and Alice heard, seeing as how I have the best eyes and ears in the family (I'm the fastest too).

"I won't!" Alice replied, perkily.

"I'm Emmett!" Emmett practically shouted. Then he pulled her into a hug.

"Emmett…I…need…air" She gasped out even though she didn't; her voice said she was lying. He let go. I was now officially convinced: Isabella Marie Swan is a vampire.

"Sorry." He mumbled.

"It's okay." She faked being out of breath.

"I'm Edward." I said, a little hesitant. She was REALLY good at acting.

I figured out I can't read her mind unless she shouts in it. I need proof she's a vampire, and that I'm not just getting paranoid after that vile Victoria came to us seeking help to plan revenge against (and I quote) 'the Bitch who killed my mate when he was trying to save me from her' (un quote).

I think I added a bit of confusion into my words when I spoke them.

Jasper raised an eyebrow at me. "You ARE going to explain the confusion later."

"I don't think I want to know…" Bella mumbled. We all turned to her.

"What?" She asked.

"Nothing. I'm Jasper, by the way. And, that's Rosalie. Don't take this the wrong way, but, not many people come and talk to us, let alone on their first day, um, why did you come over here?" Jasper cut in, with genuine curiosity in his voice.

"I don't know! Well, I mean, I met Carlisle the other day, and he said that you guys were pretty much the only teenagers in town who didn't complain non-stop about school, and I asked him why, and he said to ask you guys." She said, with enthusiasm.

"Um, well, I guess it's because we don't really have anything else to do during the school days, and after a while, sitting at home gets pretty boring." I answered; Jasper was too new for our excuses. We all started laughing; only a vampire would understand that. She was hiding a smile, Ha! Further proof of my accusation!

I suddenly felt calm and mentally thanked Jasper, while Alice scorned him.

Then the bell rang.

"Well, Bella, what is your schedule?" Alice asked Bella.

"Oh, lets see, you have second and third period with me, sorry, you don't have any of us with you first period, you have 1st lunch with Me, Edward, and Jasper, and you have fo-" She was cut off by me.

"That's enough, Alice. No need to overload the poor girl." I handed her her schedule.

"Thanks, but, you know that this girl ain't gonna take ant of that kind-a stuff? She's gonna kill you." She murmured. Alice showed me a vision of her pushing my CD's into our family safe, which I don't know the combination of.

"Alice, dearest sister of mine, you wouldn't, would you?" I pleaded with her; Bella muffled her laughter with her hand.

"Yep, she would." Bella added perkily. I sulked off to Gym.

A/N: Next chapter Bella goes to Carlisle for her blood, but he goes hunting, and guess who 'offered' to fill in for him? Yep, you guessed it! Our favorite topaz-eyed, bronze-haired Adonis!
