BPOV
As I walked into my English class I noticed a girl sitting at my table. She had a pretty face with large green eyes and a straight nose. Her hair was in a spiky haircut with a hair band to hold it back from her eyes. Her limbs were skinny and she wore clothes that suggested she didn't really care how she looked. It was strange sitting down next to her. Nobody ever sat next to Bella Swan. Everybody avoided me because I seemed different to them. I didn't let it get to me. Schools these days were like at. Her scent was sweet. It smelled of flowers in the summer. Luckily I had hunted the night before. If I had been this close to her a few days ago
I felt rude to ignore her so I made an effort.
'Hello. I'm Bella. Are you new here?' I asked sweetly.
She jumped. As if she didn't notice I was there. 'Oh! Sorry I was miles away. What were you saying?' She still wouldn't look at me. Her eyes weren't focused.
'I'm Bella Swan. Are you new?' I asked again.
She turned to finally face me and gasped.

She was beautiful. She had the most perfect face with large bright eyes framed by dark eyelashes, a perfect straight nose, and a mouth that made a perfect bow. Her dark hair reached down to the small of her back and curled in all the right places. She had the sort of figure any girl would kill for but she wasn't overly skinny, just perfect. And here I am. Sitting like a goldfish with my mouth open, and wearing the shabbiest clothes that I own. I thought to myself. I had grabbed my sweats this morning. I only had one pair. I didn't usually wear this sort of thing.
Ever since that day I hadn't bothered much with my clothes. Usually you could never see me wear the same outfit twice. I loved clothes. I lived for shopping days. I love the feel of silk under my fingers and looking in a shop mirror as I tried clothes on. Not anymore. When Mum died I couldn't feel my passion for clothes anymore. I didn't squeal with excitement when I saw the new Vogue magazine. I didn't arrange trips to the mall. I didn't even give my twin brother advice anymore on his clothes.
I suddenly realised the beautiful girl- Bella, I recalled- was still waiting for an answer. 'Yes, I'm new today. My name's Alice Mason'
She smiled at me, revealing a set of perfectly white teeth. 'Hello Alice. How is your first day so far?' she asked with apparent interest.
'Um. Its okay, I guess. I haven't really been paying much attention.' I replied apologetically
BAM!
Oh no. I was having my feeling again. Not today please! Not now. I begged. My feeling meant I was going to see something. And I wasn't going to like it. I had about three minutes till it hit. I shot my hand up.
'Yes, Alice?' Miss Myles asked.
'Could I go to the bathroom please miss,' I asked, not looking at her. 'I'm not feeling very well.'
As soon as she allowed it I shot out of my seat and sprinted to the bathroom. My sight was already being reduced to a tunnel. I raced around the corner and noticed the bathroom sign just up ahead. I didn't see where I was going, so I went through the first door I felt with my hand. I felt my way to a sink and used it for support. Then a picture appeared in front of my eyes.
It was me and the other girl Bella. We were side by side, holding hands and smiling. We were friends.
Another picture. This one was also Bella. She was holding my twin brother, Edward. But he didn't look like he normally did. He was deadly pale and there was no life in his green eyes. Bella looked up at me. Her eyes were crimson and her mouth was surrounded by the colour red. It was Edward's blood. She had drained him of his blood. Just before I came back to reality, Bella spoke to me. 'I'm sorry Alice.'
Someone was shaking me. Hard.
'Alice! Alice, snap out of it!' They were shouting.
My sight focused on the person with the iron grip. I looked up into butterscotch eyes and froze.
