A/N: RomFicGurl, here. I want to thank eMmALeA99 for letting me adopt this story. My wonderful Beta JillyBeanX-o-X.
I do not own anything but Emerson, I also don't own his last name that belongs to my Bestie who is male.
I am dedicating this chapter to my beta, JillBeanX-o-X, for writing the majority of this.

Part 1

Enjoy! ;)

Bella POV

I was sitting down watching Emerson talk to Mr. Varner, and was just thinking of the last time I saw him. I knew that without him, I would be a shell of myself. I wouldn't be as outgoing or fun to be around. It was just so weird without him; we had never been apart for than a couple days at the most. He told me I was just being crazy and that nothing would change between us. We would talk all the time and email and everything but that soon stopped when I started hanging around with the Cullen's. The truth was, I missed him…possibly more so than Edward and his family.

I then got thinking about Edward and how I was with him. It was kind of awkward between us, but that doesn't mean I love him any less. When I was with him, I think I was just trying to replace Emerson with Edward. I wanted to feel something of what I felt back in Phoenix, be part or who I used to be, but then I found out that vampires exist and everything just went downhill from there.

Don't get me wrong, I loved Edward, a part of me still does but sometimes I wish I never became entranced in the supernatural world, maybe things would be different. Maybe Edward would have broken up with a normal way instead of leaving me alone in the forest to get lost -he knows what I am like, or at least he should -, maybe we wouldn't have started dating and maybe I wouldn't have gotten caught up in his life. But things happen for a reason, right?

When I finally came back to the land of the living, I noticed someone sit in the seat beside me. No one wanted to sit beside me these days and I am more than thankful for my best friend to be here. We were sitting at the back of class, so no one noticed when Emerson started too absentmindedly play with a strand of my hair. I always loved when he did that, it helped me relax a lot.

"Alright class, I assume you have all noticed that we have a new student, Emerson Zertinsky and I hope that you will all make him feel right at home at Forks High." Began Mr. Varner, "Now, if you would all turn to page 86 we will be learning about the law of cosines."

After that, nothing much happened. Most of the class was asleep and Emerson and I finished the work with 10 minutes to spare of class so we just played a game of hangman and tic-tac-toe while he still played with my hair.

When the bell rang, I got all my things together and went to show Emerson to the gym. I had history next then Spanish after that while he had History, so I told him I would meet him at lunch. History and Spanish were pretty boring. In History, we leant about the Irish famine and in Spanish we had to come up with a couple of paragraphs about where we last went on vacation. So all in all, it was actually pretty boring.

Lunch came around; I sat waiting for Em and eating an apple when Lauren, Jessica, and the new girl came. They all had sneering looks on. I looked at them and raised my eyebrow.

"What are you doing?" Lauren said.

"I'm sitting down, eating an apple, what does it look like I'm doing?" I responded.

"Like your trying to steal Emerson away from Alessia, duh." Jessica said. I laughed once.

"Yeah, sure, whatever." I said. I could see Em coming over. When he sat down Alessia bent over the table giving him a clear view of her cleavage.

"So, Emerson right. Well, I was wondering if we could get to know each other better than the average classmate." Alessia said in a suggestive tone.

"Um, let me think and I'll get back to you, um, never." Emerson said. I covered my mouth with my hand to hide me smile.

"Wait, wait, are you turning me down?" Alessia asked in an incredulous voice.

"No, I'm actually trying to brutally reject you though it's not going exactly like I would like it to I think you get the point." He said. I was snickering like crazy. Alessia turned to me.

"What are you looking at?" She sneered.

"You, ha-ha, ahh, it's hilarious." I said still laughing. They all huffed and walked away. Emerson turned to me.

"Why were they here?" He asked.

"Well, they were here to warn me to not ' to steal Emerson away from Alessia ' apparently." I said and then I realized that I smiles truthfully and laughed for the first time in months. I was happy.

"Why?"

"Well, it has something to do with the fact you resemble Chace Crawford and the other reason I'll tell you tonight." I said. I was becoming sad just think about lying to him and even more so about having to talk about the C- Them. I looked away.

"Hey, La la?"

"Yeah."

"I have something to tell you when we get talking tonight. It's really big so I want you to keep an open mind, okay." he said.

"Yeah, of course." He nodded and we finished our lunch in silence. We walked to Biology and it was pretty boring because all we did was go over things we learnt this year. After that we went our separate ways. After gym I was walking out with minor injuries. I saw Emerson at my truck.

"Alright, just follow me. It's better to get it over with quickly." I said and he nodded. He walked across the lot to his car which was an old red Honda Civic. He followed me. When we got to my house and inside we sat on the couch. I took a deep breath but he spoke first.

"Something happened in Russia. Not bad but not necessarily good, either. It was a few days after I got there some things started happening to me. I to do things like when I a bit angry I felt stronger somehow, like this one time I got mad at my mom and broke this pen I had in my hand. Not one of those wooded pens from recycled things I mean a metal one. Things like this would happen for a while then one day I got so mad at my dad. I felt something happening to. I felt really warm but I hurt all over and then the warmth started to get hotter. I tried to get it to stop. Then my dad was telling me to just let it happen. So I stopped. When it was over he told me I was..."

Review or I won't update. LOL just kidding. I won't do that but please review. I want to announce again that I am trying to start a Contest. It's a Bella and OC paring contest. Only two judges cky297 and myself and my beta will be also JillbeanX-o-X if she wants. Do you want to? Any rating and well this is not a rule but if possible can Bella not like Alice becuase recently I have something against her and I don't like here. I like Rosalie. It can be a crossover. Please enter and advertise and R&R.

As you can see it's in parts. That's because I like cliffies and it would get to long. You'll get the next part when I put it up and the first three who review will get a sneak peek.
