Hi thanks for all the reviews for the last chapter they were great!!!

I forgot to add a disclaimer in chapter six though so here it goes, sadly I don't own anything to do with the Twilight Saga.

So so sorry for not updating sooner, especially when I told some of you I would but I had a serious case of writers block but don't worry I wrote an extra long chapter for you all. I know where I want my story to go but I just need to get it there :)

Chapter 7: School Time

POV: Bella

It has been almost 48 hours since Irina left. Carmon agreed with Kate and I, Irina needed to do this. Tanya however disagreed she was worried about her sister and how much trouble she was going to get herself into. I was also worried about her so as a precaution I had asked Alice to keep a look out for her.

"I can't see her getting into any trouble, but she hasn't really made any decisions yet." Alice had told me and Tanya, she had a look of concentration on her face. "I see her making her way towards Forks, that's all. I think she's looking for clues of where Laurent is." She said in a disgruntled voice, she hated not knowing everything.

Tanya was still on edge, I on the other hand felt a lot calmer with Alice watching over Irina. The Edward situation however made me feel all worked up again, since we almost kissed by the lake he has been acting strange I knew he was afraid to make me feel uncomfortable, he still didn't know if I was ready to forgive him. I knew I was ready, there was nothing to forgive.

I wondered up the stairs towards the guest bedroom that Edward now occupied and knocked quietly.

"Come in love." I smiled; I loved it when he called me that. I walked in and found him sitting reading.

"Hi, sorry I didn't mean to interrupt you." I hoped he couldn't hear the nervousness in my voice as much as I could.

"You didn't interrupt anything Bella, I would much rather sit with you than read this." He said gesturing to the book, he looked a bit disgusted. I saw he was reading Wuthering Heights.

"Why are you reading that, I thought you despised it?" I asked him, slightly amused.

"I was, once again trying to decide why you like it so much." He admitted, I laughed, rather touched by his interest in me. "So what's up?" he asked me, I could see he was curious to what I was here for.

"Nothing really, just a little worried about Irina." I sighed, it was true but this was not what I wanted to talk to him about.

"Yes I know you are, you're always worrying about others but never yourself." He huffed; he never did like the fact that I had no self preservation.

"Edward I doubt that Victoria will show her face around here again." I said my voice wasn't as confident as it was a few moments ago.

"Bella you were a rotten liar when you were human and that hasn't changed." He said with a half a smile on his perfect lips. "Lucky for you, I worry enough for the both of us." He said taking my hand.

"I love you Edward." I had already told him this however this had a different meaning, this meant I was ready to take him back and I could see in his eyes that he understood the difference.

"I love you to Bella." Just like near the lake his face began to come slowly towards me, this time I speeded things up a little bit. I crushed my lips to his and he didn't hesitate to respond. He had never kissed me like this before; this was a completely new experience for me. This kiss was so passionate and so filled with love. After a few minutes he pulled away which I wasn't too thrilled about but I soon realised why he had, I could hear Emmett wolf whistling from the kitchen and Alice screaming excitedly.

"Let's go somewhere more private." I suggested taking his hand a leaping through the window.

We spent the rest of the afternoon in the forest, just enjoying one another's company. I could tell when we arrived home that everyone was trying to act casual about the fact that Edward had his arm around my waist and was stealing kisses from me every few minutes.

Edward had kept true to his promise of never letting me out of his sight, the only time I was alone was when I was changing. He had even decided to enrol into high school with me on his first day which made it all the more bearable.

So on Monday morning I dressed with a smile on my face, whereas if I was heading to school alone, my expression would have been more of a grimace. I stared at myself in the mirror for a second before turning and heading towards the silver Volvo where Edward was waiting for me.

The school wasn't that different from the one in Forks, the only main difference was the different students but like all humans they all stared at the vampires. I could hear the other students talking about.

"That must be the new girl, her aunts live out in the forest." I heard one girl tell her friend.

"So who's he?" her friend asked lustfully about Edward. I was surprised that I felt jealous of this girl. A growl slipped between my clenched teeth, Edward laughed at my reaction then gave my hand a reassuring squeeze.

We walked further into the school where more students were, the boys stared at me with their mouths hanging open, this time Edward let out a growl. I laughed and kissed his cheek, he instantly relaxed.

We collected out timetable and looked what we had first; I was pleased to see that I had first period with him. I held Edward's hand as we headed to English while I received death glares from the girls around me.

My morning lessons passed and I realised school wasn't that bad. After morning break Edward led me to gym which I had alone, I could just see my day going down hill from here. We were still being stared at, well I was being glared at, Edward was being stared at lustfully by the girls and seemed to be being worshiped by the boys after all he did have all the girls in the school gazing at him lovingly.

We stopped outside the gym door while other kids past us; they turned their heads to keep us in their view. Edward wrapped his arms around me as I laid my head on his chest breathing deeply. He rubbed my back soothingly and kissed my hair.

"Don't make me go." I whimpered. He chuckled at me and pulled away from me he placed his arms on my shoulders and looked me in the eye, his face was trying to be serious but I could see the humour in his eyes.

"Bella you can do this, its not that bad and your certainly a lot more coordinated than you used to be." I glared playfully at him as he chuckled at his memories of me human. He kissed me on the lips quickly and watched me walk through the gym doors.

I entered the changing rooms which was already full of girls. They gawked at me as I passed them and headed towards the teacher, I introduced myself and she told me to get changed. I groaned internally, I thought she would let me watch with it being my first lesson. I walked to the corner trying to get as far away from the other girls. They continued to stare after I had put on my gym uniform. I sat down and waited for the teacher to take the register, since I was not with Edward at the moment the girls weren't glaring they were merely staring curiously at me.

The teacher took the register and told us to gather in the sports hall. I followed the girls who were all giggling excitedly at something. I realised what it was though as soon as we entered, I saw a group of boys who were obviously considered 'cool' were in this class. The one that I thought was their 'leader' was staring at me with a hungry look in his eyes, I suppressed a shudder.

"Watch this boy's." I heard him tell his friends. He started approaching me, he was quite muscled no where near as toned as Edward and no where near as handsome, I don't know why he was bothering.

When he was closer to me he grinned and held out his hand for me to shake. "Hey, I'm Josh, you are?" he asked still holding out his hand. I wasn't going to shake it my skin was ice cold and he was a big headed creep.

"Bella." I said crossing my arms across my chest and smiling politely.

"So Bella do you want to be my gym partner?" he asked giving me what was supposed to be a sexy smile. I could hear a group of girls talking about us while we stood there.

"He's my gym partner, he always is! Although if she partners with him then maybe I might get to know her gorgeous boyfriend." The girl said in a high pitched voice while grinning evilly and glaring at me. I suppose she was pretty if you liked that sort of thing but I knew Edward wouldn't give her a second glance. In my opinion this was someone who was perfect for Josh, they both seemed to love themselves.

"I think you already have a gym partner." I said while glancing over his shoulder towards the girl. He turned to see who I was talking about and sighed when he did.

"You don't know what you're missing." He said while smirking at me, he looked me up and down then stalked off towards the girl and her friends.

I glanced around the room looking for a suitable partner that wasn't going to lust after me or try to make me one of their groupies. Then I spotted her a small, quiet girl standing alone. I don't think she had many friends and seemed reluctant to join anyone. I walked over to where she stood in the corner alone.

"Hi I'm Bella." I said smiling at her. She stared at me; I think I may have dazzled her as she wasn't breathing. "Erm…" I realised I didn't know her name. "What's your name?" I asked her she was staring with horror stuck eyes, maybe I had scared her maybe she had some sixth sense that told her I was dangerous.

"She's Erin." I heard a high pitched voice come from behind me; I knew it was the girl from earlier; I spun around to face her. "I'm Laura and I'm here to give you some advice. If you want to be liked in this school stay away from things like that." She said while looking down her nose at Erin. "Why don't you come and join us you can be Jenny's partner." She said gesturing to a skinny pale girl while smiling falsely at me.

"No thanks, I was actually going to ask Erin to be my partner." I said giving her the same false smile back. I saw Erin's eyes widen when mentioned me being her partner, I doubted if anyone was ever nice to her.

"I wouldn't if I were you she's really weird." Laura whispered loudly making sure that Erin heard her. I saw her face drop into something that could only be described as misery.

"That's fine, I like weird." I said this time I didn't smile at her, she was really mean to this poor girl.

"Fine! You're as freaky as she is." She said in a disgusted voice. She stormed off and her friends followed.

"Evil." I said with a sigh. I heard a little giggle come from behind me, I turned and found Erin there looking at me in awe, obviously no one had ever stuck up for her. "I'm Bella." I said smiling at her; hopefully she would answer me this time.

"I'm Erin, thanks for that." She said nodding slightly towards the group of girls.

"No problem." I said smiling at her. "So would you be my gym partner, I really don't want to be partners with any of those." She laughed and nodded.

Gym passed pretty quickly and Erin was very nice. The teacher blew her whistle and told us to get changed; I walked with Erin making sure that Laura and her followers left her alone. After I was changed I waited for Erin because Laura was still there throwing us dirty looks every chance she got. When Erin was changed I walked her outside and there leaning on the railing was my own personal angel.

"Hey." He said coming over and pecking me on the lips. I heard Erin's heart rate pick up when she saw Edward standing there.

"Hi. Edward this is Erin, Erin this is Edward." I said gesturing between them. Edward smiled at her making her heart rate pick up even more. I had to suppress a giggle.

"Erm… Hi. Bella I have to go thanks again." She smiled and ran off.

Edward took my hand and we walked towards music class. "That was a nice thing you did back there." He said smiling lovingly at me.

"It was what anyone would do." I said shrugging. He shook his head in disagreement. "Well it's what people should do." I said. Erin was such a nice girl people should give her a chance. Edward nodded and we headed into the music room.

After music we went to lunch, I got a salad and a soda and sat down with Edward at a table farthest away from the other students. I heard the door open and saw Laura and her followers come through. I scanned the room for Erin and found her sitting alone at the other end of cafeteria. I saw Laura's eyes scan the room too, she spotted Edward and me and then she spotted Erin. She smirked and walked towards her table, I groaned and Edward looked at me in alarm.

"Bella what's wrong?!" he asked.

"Erin… Laura is going to be a jerk to her again." I said glaring at Laura across the room.

"Bella leave it." I looked at Edward shocked was he really asking me to ignore this poor girl being made miserable. "We can't get involved in humans lives." I laughed out loud at this.

"Seriously Edward, your one to talk." I said staring at him wide eyed. He looked down at the table.

"Exactly Bella and look what happened to you because of my interference!" he said quietly while still looking at the table.

"Fine I'll leave her sitting there alone and defenceless." I snapped back while pushing the salad around my plate. It was silence for exactly two point four seconds then Edward sighed loudly.

"Fine, your right." He said, I smiled at him and kissed him on the cheek as I passed him to go and rescue Erin.

"Hey Erin." I said as I approached the table where Laura and all her friends crowded around. Erin looked at like I had saved her from the fiery pits of hell.

"Bella." She sighed in relief, Laura and the others looked at me with annoyance.

"Edward and I wondered if you would like to sit with us?" I asked, she nodded and went to stand up. One of Laura's followers put their hand on one of Erin's shoulders and pushed her back in her seat. I could practically feel my eyes getting darker as anger washed over me. I stepped forward towards the large girl and glared at her.

"Let go of her now." I growled, I knew I wouldn't ever attack her, I was in control I was just scaring her off. The girl looked at me mockingly until she saw my face then the look of fear crossed her face.

"Now now Bella you're not getting in a fight on your very first day are you?" I heard a velvety voice chuckle from behind me. Edward put one hand on my waist; I knew he was getting ready to restrain me if I went to attack.

"No Edward, I was merely asking Erin if she would like to join us." I said sweetly still glaring at the girl. She on the other hand was no longer staring at me, she like all the other girls at the table were staring dreamily at Edward. I cleared my throat and they all shook their heads slightly side to side.

Laura smiled at Edward widely then stepped forward, "Hi I'm Laura." She said in what I guessed was her seductive voice.

Edward smiled politely. "I'm Edward, Bella's boyfriend." Her face tightened a little when he said the word boyfriend. "Bella, why don't we join Erin here at this table? I brought our lunches over." I hadn't realised before but he had two trays balanced in one hand, I nodded and he pulled out the chair for me to sit down, I sat down and took my lunch off of him while he sat in the chair beside me.

"It was nice meeting you Edward." Laura smiled. "I hope I get that chance again soon." She walked off swinging her hips as she went.

"Vile girl." Edward muttered, both Erin and I nodded while laughing.

"Yep." I said popping the p. We spent lunch talking; well Erin and I were talking while Edward was simply listening to us. I don't think he liked the idea of getting close to a human.

The bell rang and Edward took our untouched lunches and disposed of them. I smiled at him when he returned and took his hand.

"What do you have next?" Erin asked me.

"Erm... I'm not quite sure." I hadn't looked at what I had this afternoon I had just been letting Edward lead me to my classes. I looked at him now for an answer.

"We have Biology." He said with a loving smile, I raised my eyebrows and laughed.

"Seriously!" I laughed again, he nodded yes.

"What's so funny about Biology class?" Erin asked confused.

"It's the class that Bella and I first met." Edward told her while looking lovingly at me.

"That's sweet." Erin sighed. "How long have you been dating for now?"

"About two years." Edward told her. Technically that wasn't true it had only been a few days but it had been about two years since we first began dating. "So I couldn't exactly just let her move away without me."

"Oh you're so lucky Bella." Erin laughed. I nodded in agreement.

"I'm the lucky one, my family didn't even argue when I told them I was moving to Alaska." Edward laughed I could tell he was trying to get the story out that the other Cullen's were moving here to.

"Yeah they just agreed to move here to." I said smiling I was so happy that I had my family back.

"Their moving to Alaska just so you can be together?" Erin looked shocked, Edward nodded. "Wow my family would never do that for me." Erin looked a little sad at the thought but quickly perked up and walked with us towards the Biology room.

Edward and I were walking hand in hand, with Erin on the other side of me; I was beginning to feel uneasy. Maybe it was because I was heading to Biology with Edward Cullen. No that wasn't it. It was like I was being watched, like I wasn't safe here. That was when I smelled it; Edward must have to as he went rigid at my side.

Sorry about the cliff hangers there :) hope you enjoyed it!
