Okay beautiful readers, the Chapter you have been waiting for. I have been so nervous about it.

But I must say first that I am excited at all the new reviewers that I have. I have say thank you to them and that I am glad you guys are enjoying this story and a special thanks to my loyal reviewer from the start Viper003. Still making me smile.

Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight or the characters. I own Mel, Rachel, and the Amazing Joe. I was so glad to get a positive review on him. I didn't want to take that big brother role from Emmet, so don't worry he will still have it, I just wanted to give you my "big" brother figure in my life. Joe is a lot like my own younger brother.

Sorry for rambling. I'm done

Please R&R and ENJOY!!

Chapter 6

"Pst Bella," someone whispered to me. Oh for the love all that is holy. I recognized that annoying whisper. I turned my head to see Newton looking at me mouthing and apology at me.

"Well you must be Isabella Swan," Mr. Banner said getting my attention. I nodded. "Well you are late."

I shot Newton a glare before I turned back to Mr. Banner and mumbled and apology.

"Well I will let it go today since from what I have heard you are new. Now where will you sit," he said glancing around the room. "The only seat open, next to Mr. Cullen. Do you know who Edward is?"

My jaw dropped. Did I hear him right? Edward Cullen. Alice will get a kick out of this.

"Edward could you please raise your hand," Mr. Banner asked, taking my silence as a no.

Great they think I cannot find the one person in the room who doesn't have someone sitting next to him. They think I don't remember the guy that had to pick me up and carry me to the nurse this morning.

I am just coming off as a freakin' genius today.

I turned to see Edward with his hand raised in the air and his emerald green eyes glued on me. Once his eyes met mine my heart stopped. He then gave me a polite smile, which restarted my heart and sent it racing.

I could feel a blush creeping into my cheeks. I quickly glanced down at my feet as I made my way over to that seat. My seat. Next to Edward Cullen.

I sat down and glanced to the side to see his eyes still on me. This time when he noticed me looking at him he looked away embarrassed.

Wait embarrassed? What did he have to be embarrassed about? I didn't realize I was still staring at him until he looked back at me and smiled. I gave a quick smile and let my hair drop down as a curtain shielding my face, that I am sure was red as a tomato.

It's okay I will sit next to Edward for what a quarter of the year and then we would probably get a new seating chart. I could do this.

"Okay class that should be plenty of time to copy the rules. Mr. Cullen if you don't mind giving Ms. Swan your rules to borrow so she can copy them," Mr. Banner asked.

"Not at all Sir," he spoke in that same velvety, musical voice that I had believed before to be one of an angel. He then shot a crooked smile in my direction that if it were possible, would have caused my heart to leap out of my chest.

"Okay good. Now I am not one to spend the first week with 'Getting to know you exercises and going over the syllabus. So we are going to do all of that today. I hope your ready for this class, because it will be fast pace and I will not tolerate slacking. You better be willing to work hard. I encourage you to ask questions when you don't understand something as I am explaining it, but not after we have moved on. Okay s-," Mr. Banner continued on.

I could tell we were going to get along. He means business and that's good.

In the next forty minutes he went over our whole class syllabus and gave us a page of notes to copy on the first chapter we would be doing, as well as homework, before stopping with five minutes left in class.

"See I am a reasonable guy. I don't work you to the bell. Now I want you to take these next five minutes to turn to the person next to you and 'Get to Know them' because they will be your lab partner for the year."

Crap. There goes any chance of getting a new seat.

The class soon broke into chatter from everyone around us. I simply faced forward, not entirely sure of what to say.

"Bella," that voice broke me out of my thoughts. I glanced over at him and he was staring at me with cautious eyes. He seemed to be waiting for me to say something.

"Yes? Edw-ard," stupid stuttering never fails to come at the worst times.

"Bella," he spoke my name again. I almost melted. " I think we are suppose to get to know each other."

Duh Bella.

"Oh right," I blushed.

"Can we start over? I don't think we were ever officially introduced," Edward said looking at me hopeful.

"Um. Sure," I don't think I have managed to say a sentence longer than two words to him.

"Well my name is Edward Cullen," he said putting his hand out to shake mine.

"Isabella Swan, but I prefer Bella," I said taking his hand. Six words. I'm making progress.

The handshake left my hand tingling with what, electricity? It gave me that same feeling from when he carried me. An unreal feeling.

I blushed remembering the words I mumbled to him when I was cradled in his arms.

"Bella," he said smiling. My heart stopped. "And now that the awkward introductions are over, why don't we tell each other something about ourselves. Do you want to go first or should I?"

"You can," great back to two words.

"Okay. I have lived here in Forks for 5 years now. I was adopted by Carlisle and Esme. I have an adopted sister who you already know, Alice, and an adopted brother named Emmet, I don't know if you have met him yet, he's kind of hard to miss. Oh and lets see I enjoy playing the piano and reading the classics like Shakespeare," he finished smiling slightly embarrassed. "Sorry for rambling."

"It's okay I guess I am not helping the situation by not saying much," I assured him timidly. "Well I have lived in Forks for a couple of months. I moved here from Phoenix, Arizona. My parents are Renee and Charlie, who is the new police chief here," I said this while wrinkling my nose. "And I have a younger brother named Joe, who is a sophomore. I also have two older sisters, Mel and Rachel, who attend colleges on the Eastern Shore. I also enjoy reading the classics and I like to write. I am also quite klutzy but I guess you noticed that.."

"Don't worry I also enjoy helping beautiful girls," he said giving me that crooked smile.

I simply blushed as my breathing became labored again. Beautiful?

"Oh and did you say Joe Swan," Edward asked curiously. Of course he knew Joe. "I feel sort of stupid for not recognizing the same last name."

"You know my brother?" I asked.

"Isn't he the incredible baseball player who is suppose to be taking our team to nationals this year," he answered my question with one of his own. "Emmet is on the team, and he has been extremely pumped for his arrival."

"Yep. That sounds like my brother," I said not able to hide the pride in my voice for my brother.

"Well I sort of met him this morning when I had to separate him and Newton," he said Mike's name with the same disgust that had come from Joe earlier. "I don't know what it was over, but if looks could kill I don't think Mike would be in this classroom right now with us."

"Oh I knew Joe said he had almost fought with him, but I really didn't think there had been a need for someone to step in and separate the two of them," I stammered. "He didn't seem that bad at lunch when I fell again because of Newton," I said that last part mostly to myself.

Of course Edward heard me. "He made you fall again," he sounded slightly angry as his voice rose.

"Yea, but I'm okay," I shrugged it off. "He collided with me when he was messing around with some of his friends."

"Bella I know we haven't really known each other very long, but promise me something," Edward said sounding serious.

"Su-sure," slightly confused. What on earth could he possibly want me to promise him?

"Newton's pretty harmless, but he's a complete jerk. Just please promise me that you will try to stay away from him. Okay?"

"I definitely will," I promised, still confused. Why would Edward care if I were involved with Newton? "I don't think it would be good for his own health if he comes near me again," I said this part through gritted teeth.

He smirked at my response. And then his face turned soft.

"See we knew the school was getting this amazing baseball player, but no one said anything about the beautiful, slightly trouble magnetic, but still amazing girl he had for a sister, who I would be getting as well," he said staring intently into my eyes.

Beautiful? Me? Why does he keep saying that. I think I had stopped breathing...again.

I blushed letting my hair fall to try and cover my eyes, but in one swift, gentle motion my hair was tucked back behind my ear.

His emerald green eyes still stared into my brown ones.

I felt the trail on the side of my head from where he had pushed my hair.

For some reason I did not try to block my view from his again. What was wrong with me? Why can't I look away?

Because you don't want to stupid. I thought to myself.

Even if I knew how to respond to what he said I don't think I could have. My heart was racing and I could not breathe.

Both of us unwilling to break our gazes from the other, had no choice when the bell rang.

"Hope to see you soon Bella Swan," he said as he reluctantly got up to leave.

Yep my plan to stay unattached to this town just got ten times more complicated.

Okay so be honest.

How did I do with the Edward Cullen chapter. Don't worry many more will follow, but let me know what you think.

I was so nervous about this.

Please Review!

Love,

Jane
