CHAPTER THREE (Princess Isabella's viewpoint)
AN: A thanks out to fire enturnal for your review!
Later in the afternoon Alice and Angela talked me into going to the music room to play for them; while walking in I saw three other people. The first being a good-looking guy who had blond hair, pale blue eyes and had a baby face; the second person there was a girl with long, corn silk, blonde hair, green, fishy eyes with pale eyebrows, and around 5'6" tall. The last was a girl around 5'1" tall, has very curly, dark brown hair and blue eyes.
Upon entering the room all three looked towards us and I immediately knew that both girls would be fakes but alright friends if nothing goes wrong with this meeting of sorts. The boy unfortunately took an immediate liking towards me; he came up to me with this huge smile and slings his arm around my shoulders brushing aside my friends. With a frown I noticed the brown haired girl scorn towards the guys arm; with a sign I shifted his arm off me as he introduced himself as Mike Newton.
With a shake of my head I introduced myself and my friends hinting that he was being rude to them. Turning to the blond and brunette I ask them who they were; the brunette introduced herself as Jessica Stanley and the blond as Lauran Mallory. A few tense moments later I stepped around Newton and went towards a guitar; naturally the Newton guy followed me like a puppy dog. With a shake of my head I sat down and mentioned for my friends to do so as well; with a sign I began to play Enchanted by Taylor Swift.
There I was again tonight
Forcing laughter, faking smiles
Same old tired, lonely place
Walls of insincerity
Shifting eyes and vacancy
Vanished when I saw your face
All I can say is it was enchanting to meet you
By now I could see my friends with awed expressions on their faces as I sang the song and played it as well. With a smirk I noticed Jessica and Lauran do a double take back; continuing I closed my eyes.
Your eyes whispered have we met
Across the room your silhouette
Starts to make its way to me
The playful conversation starts
Counter all your quick remarks
Like passing notes in secrecy
And it was enchanting to meet you
All I can say is I was enchanted to meet you
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonder-struck, blushing all the way home
I'll stand forever wondering if you know
I was enchanted to meet you
The lingering question kept me up
2 AM, who do you love
I wondered 'til I'm wide awake
And now I'm pacing back and forth
Wishing you were at my door
I'd open up and you would say, 'Hey'
It was enchanting to meet you
All I know is I was enchanted to meet you
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonder-struck, blushing all the way home
I'll stand forever wondering if you know
This night is flawless, don't you let it go
I'm wonder-struck, dancing around all alone
I'll stand forever wondering if you know
I was enchanted to meet you
This is me praying that
This was the very first page
Not where the story line ends
My thoughts will echo your name
Until I see you again
These are the words I held back
As I was leaving to say
I was enchanted to meet you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonder-struck, blushing all the way home
I'll stand forever wondering if you know
This night is flawless, don't you let it go
I'm wonder-struck, dancing around all alone
I'll stand forever wondering if you know
I was enchanted to meet you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
When I finished I sat there for a minute then opened my eyes to see Mr Masen and several others watching me in awe. I blushed as I looked at Mr Masen then away to my friends who were grinning madly; I gave them a look and Alice exclaimed to my embarrassment, "Who is it? Who is it?" I frowned as she hopped up and down on her toes then turned to Angela and asked her to explain what she was talking about. Angela gave a small giggle and replied with a smug (I know weird for her) smile, "She wants to know to whom you are wonder-struck to- whom you were enchanted to meet."
I shook my head and let out a laugh; placing the guitar away I told them that it was just a song and not to get any ideas. I looked at Mr Masen who now had a straight face on and pleasantly said hello then looked at the others as if to ask who there were. Mr Masen introduced us to Emmett McCarty, Jasper Whitlock and Ben Cheney- who were his roommates. Emmett McCarty was very tall, very burly, very intimidating and very handsome with dimples and slightly curly dark brown hair that almost looks black, giving him a childish look with his blue eyes.
Jasper Whitlock was around 6'3" and had golden honey blond hair. He was muscular, but lean with beautiful brown eyes which were trained onto Alice, who was staring back with a silly grin on her face. Covering my grin with my hand I looked at Ben Cheney; he was around 5'7" with black hair, golden brown skin and dark brown eyes which were levelled onto Angela- who was blushing. I was about to laugh when I was caught in a bear hug from Emmett; I squeaked before hugging him back. Emmett's voice boomed out, "Hey Bells, I can call you that right? Never had a sister before; want to be my sister? Don't worry about me I've just got a good feeling about you."
I let out another laugh when Emmett let me down from his hug and replied that it sounded alright with a grin; I soon introduced my friends to the guys. A few minutes later everyone was telling me how wonderful I was on the guitar and how great of a singer I was. I looked at Mr Masen and blushed to see him looking at me as well; looking away I noticed Newton switching between glaring at Masen and staring at me. Letting out a huff I asked Masen, Emmett, Jasper, Ben, Angela and Alice is they wanted to go for a walk before diner was called.
The six of them agreed so we went out for a walk to look around the school talking about what we had learnt at home. I grinned when I leant that my friends and I were taught most of the same stuff; I was looking forward to the year with my new friends. When the dinner bell went we all sat together; I rolled my eyes when I saw that Ben and Angela, and Alice and Jasper were paired together at the table.
I snickered at my friends before turning back towards my dinner. Afterwards we all walked together to our rooms laughing as Emmett told us all about the different pranks he pulled.

The next morning I was awoken by the alarm that was set up; yawning I got out of bed and had a shower. Once out of the shower I went into the cupboard and dressed in a mild-glamour uniform dress with simple black high heels. I was just curling my hair and adding them into a ponytail when there was a knock on the door. Seeing all my room-mates were currently in the shower or in states of undress I opened the door to a fraction to see Esme at the door. Greeting me a good morning Esme gave me four timetables before continuing to the next room.
Closing the door I yawned again and placed each time table at their owners' desk; my timetable was at the bottom of the four, there were six lessons a day but each lasted an hour except last which lasted 2.5 hours; it read as followed:
WEEKA-
MON: English, History, Politics, Commerce, Health, HTR.
TUE: History, English, Pe, Politics, Commerce, Archery.
WED: Commerce, Pe, Free, History, Politics, Drama.
THR: Politics, Commerce, Health, English, Free, Child Care.
FRI: Health, English, History, Politics, Free, HTR.
WEEKB-
MON: History, Politics, Health, Commerce, English, Drama.
TUE: Commerce, History, Pe, English, Politics, HTR.
WED: Health, Politics, English, History, Commerce, and Archery.
THR: Free, English, Commerce, Pe, History, and Child Care.
FRI: English, Free, History, Politics, Commerce, Drama.
With a smile I read my timetable and then packed my English, History, Commerce, Health and Politics books into my cube as well as several pens and a change of clothes for horse trail riding. On cue my room-mates grabbed their time tables and confirmed my belief that the year was going to be great- we were all in the same classes. Alice jumped up and down with excitement as Angela looked on laughing; with a soft smile I turned to Rosalie and asked if she would like to join us to breakfast.
To my pleasure Rosalie replied that she would love to have breakfast with us; in my mind I was jumping up and down happily but outside I was just smiling. At breakfast the guys meet up with us and we compared our timetables to find out that we were all in the same classes except Ben, Angela, Emmett and Rosalie had art class instead of drama. Soon enough the warning bell rang sending us all to the building classed as "school building" (not very inventive but hey that's what it is.). Talking happily we got to our English room and sat together waiting for the teacher to arrive.
Mr Mason as his nameplate identified him was a tall, balding man; Mr Mason gave out course outline to everyone as he marked the roll- we had about 23 people in this class. Throughout the year the class will be doing: Composition and Literature, The Classical Tradition, Poetry Writing Workshop, Fiction and Non-fiction Writing. The class quickly passed with Mr Mason checking what each student knew and what they needed to be helped with throughout the course set.
As the bell went off we collected our stuff back into our cubes and walked down the hallway towards our history class. Mrs Goff our history teacher had long black hair down to her waist with light blue eyes; she seemed kind from what could be gathered in our first lesson. After giving out the year outline to everyone and calling the roll; Mrs Goff sat on her desk in front of us and began a discussion with the whole class on the different facts we knew about War- mostly about the Vietnam War era (WW2).
Far too quickly the bell went off for break making many groan out loud; laughing Mrs Goff gave us all instructions to write up as much as we could remember of the discussion to bring the next day. Most of the class were still talking about the lesson as they went off to different areas of the school for the next half hour; laughing my friends and I went to the library to first write up the discussion and second hang out close to the classrooms. Writing up the discussion was easier than I thought it would due to Edward's perfect memory.
Too soon the bell went for third period sending us all to our Politics class taught by Mr Jefferson- a tall man with blonde hair and green eyes and very lazy in the first lesson. Like the lesson previous Mr J (for short) got us all into a discussion about the different political opinions in the world that we knew of. The difference being the lessons was that Mr J had written it all up as we went in a mind map on the board. Commerce after Politics was boring due to the teacher Mr Banner being twenty minutes late and then wasted ten mins talking about how mathematics is linked with the class. With the last half of the lesson Mr Banner got us to talk about the different stuff that we already knew.
Everyone rushed out of the classroom when the bell went for lunch; my friends and I went to dining hall and grabbed some sandwiches, fruit and drinks before going to the tables outside of the paddocks. We all eat our lunches and talked about the classes so far and who was our favourite. Too soon the bell for firth period came and we had to go to class. Health went just as quickly with Mr Varner a short bald man who was boring at first appearance; he gave us work to copy out of a textbook and proceeded to sit at his desk drinking coffee.
With a grin my friends and I laughed and joked towards the stables where we changed- there are change rooms to the side, and then waited for the teacher at the tables. Within minutes a tall women came walking towards our group; as she got closer I noticed that she had long honey brown hair and brown eyes. The first twenty minutes of the last period was spent with Ms Clapp making sure that everyone could saddle their horse correctly and knew how to set everything up. Soon Ms Clapp made sure everyone knew the basics; after which we were only allowed in the paddocks at first for safety reasons.
At the end of the lesson Ms Clapp told the class that we would be doing different exercises for the nest class. Twenty minutes until the end of the class everyone unsaddled the horses and brushed down them before changing. The hours before dinner was spent hanging with my friends and getting to know each other more. Dinner came and went then it was time for bed after a quick call to my parents.
In all the first day was the best even if some classes were boring. I hope the rest of the year is the same. Yet as I go to sleep I know somehow it will not be. The question is will this be good or bad?
AN: There we go, I hope you enjoy. Sorry for the wait but writer's block came. Please review and if anyone has any ideas with how to get Isabella and Edward together please tell me. R&R.
