I had never been so glad to hear the bell ring in all the times I had went to high school and over the past seventy years, that had been a lot. I could tell that whatever this Andrew kid was thinking was really bothering Edward. I could here the inaudible to humans growl deep within his chest. I had taken Edward's hand in mine under the table where they laid and squeezed to reassure him. Even though Edward knew I would forever be his, sometimes his male jealousy caused a brief lapse in memory. And this Andrew wasn't helping. Andrew Newton. He had thought he recognized me but I was gone from Forks long before his birth. Newton. I couldn't help but wonder if my old classmate, Mike, would have been a relative of his.

Edward and I walked arm and arm down the hallway to the familiar Biology lab where our first face to face meeting had occurred. He walked close behind me, my protector. On most days, his overprotective ways would cause me to sulk a little bit and returning to high school had never given me a problem, but today, today was different. We were in Forks. And I wanted, no I needed his closeness, his protectiveness. I wanted Edward to hover over me, a trait I had never found appealing in the past. I lifted my shield to let Edward know that I needed him, and he was there. He went from walking behind me to walking with me, slipping his arm around my waist. A huge sense of relief went through my body. Where was Jasper when I needed his mood control? Edward grinned at that thought and whispered, "Art."

Edward led me to a desk near the far wall of the room. It was the desk behind where he and I had sat that very first time. As we walked through the front of the room, the draft caught my hair. Edward tensed. I knew he wasn't smelling me this time for I no longer had blood flowing through my veins. I leaned into him and raised an eyebrow. Are you okay, love? I questioned.

Edward pulled the chair out for me once we reached the lab desk. It was a tall table with two high back stools. I climbed into mine and Edward into his, meanwhile he never let his hand loosen the grasp he had around me. "Your smell is driving these humans insane," he whispered so low that only my vampire ears could hear him. His eyes were turning black and I could smell the venom filling his mouth. "They want you."

This was not the first time I had been in the same scenario with Edward. However, I could not fault him. I was lucky that I didn't have to hear the whispers of the estrogen driven girls that were all around us. I would overhear the teenage girls whispering and confiding in one another about their crushes and fantasies revolving around my husband each time we started a new school year. With the hearing we immortals possessed, I didn't have to be within earshot to hear it and it could make school difficult. I knew I had no worries about losing my Edward to any one of them, the same for him with me, but with our feelings being easily activated, it was very hard not to become jealous or angry. All we could do was be closer to one another to let everyone see that we were together and would remain together.

The teacher came to the front of the room and introduced himself, Mr. Anders. He was a wiry older gentlemen who reminded of Albert Einstein. I giggled to myself at the likeness and Edward joined in as I shared with him my imaginative thoughts. I had hoped my attempt at humor would lighten Edward's mood, but I could see that he with his free hand he was clutching the ledge of the table. "Edward, lighten up. If you destroy the table, Carlisle will be upset," I tried to warn him. Our father didn't like for any of us to do anything that might draw attention to us.

Edward nodded in response. "Alice has a vision and I'm seeing it," he stammered. "Mr. Anders is going to have everyone in groups of three and guess who will be our third." He glanced to his right at Andrew Newton. "Another Newton for me to deal with. Just my luck."

As Edward finished telling me of Alice's vision, Mr. Anders announced the lab project we would work on for the hour would be done in groups of threes and that Mr. Newton should join his new classmates to help them 'acclimate' to their new school. I laughed to myself at the thought of the school being new to me. I was a good twenty years older than Mr. Anders my very self. Andrew pulled up a chair to the opposite side of the desk. He would be facing Edward and I. I purposefully would look at Edward with all the love in the world. I would giggle and smile at him, definitely overacting the part of devoted girlfriend. Only if Andrew could know I was very much Edward's devoted wife, mother of his children. Edward relaxed a bit and we went to work on the project that Mr. Anders had laid out for the class. Between Edward and I, we had done this at least fifty times. Andrew watched as Edward and I together worked quickly. "Maybe I'm the lucky one, getting the new kids after all," Andrew laughed. "Sorry, most new kids that I've sat with aren't as smart as you two are."

Edward beamed a smirk that surely had to make Andrew feel less than intelligent. I elbowed Edward to try to get him to put that smirk away, but he would not relent. He successfully made the boy feel less intelligent and had proven that I was his girl. I wanted to tell Edward that all of the time he spent with our dear son-in-law had resulted in his actions being like Jacob's had been in our adolescence. Andrew turned to look at me and wouldn't stop staring. I felt Edward's muscle in his forearm tense once again. "Bella, you look real familiar to me," he started. "Do you have any family in the area?"

I looked to Edward and he blinked his eyes. I knew the story we had come up with in case anyone did recognize any of us. We knew that there had to be pictures out there of us, but for me, it would be easier than the rest. All of the pictures that may still exist in Forks would have been from when I was still human. My physical appearance was still recognizable but even my own father couldn't believe the changes. Once I had been changed, I had managed to stay out of the public eye in Forks. Even if there was an adult in town that could remember any of us, they would have had to have been a small child back then. "Well, since you ask, Andrew" I began my explanation, "I did years ago. That's kind of how we ended up here in Forks." I looked to Edward to see if I should go on and he gave me a nod. Apparently whatever thoughts he was hearing from Andrew let him know that I should continue on. "See, the Cullens adopted me when I was very young, my brother and sister and I were believed to have no family left. There was nobody for the hospital to contact. Anyway, a few years ago, my siblings and I asked our adoptive parents to find out more about us. We are curious to as were we come from. An attorney called us a few months ago to tell our dad that he had found a relative of ours and started tracing our history. It brought us here. Our distant grandfather was Charlie Swan, the police chief of Forks some nearly fifty years ago or more. Our mother was I believe his granddaughter. Charlie had one daughter, Isabella, who in turn had a daughter, who had my mother. That's who I was named for I guess."

Andrew started nodding his head, "The old Swan place is still vacant. I could show it to you sometime."

Edward's head snapped up quickly. "That will not be necessary, Andrew. Bella and I were just there last night. Bella, Rosalie, and Jasper has inherited the place. Bella and I have future plans for the home."

I looked in horror as Edward raised his voice at the poor kid. I knew Edward's temperament when anything involved me. I wished the poor child would be quiet, but of course, he wouldn't. "Its cool man, I get it. Just offering," he stammered. "My grandfather use to tell us stories about Chief Swan and his daughter." Andrew began to smile. "My grandfather told me that Chief Swan's daughter was the only woman he ever loved." Hearing those words leave Andrew's mouth made me choke on my own venom.

"Who is your grandfather?" Edward asked. I could see Edward seething. "He still alive? Ours are all gone." Edward bent his head down to show his sadness.

Andrew looked a bit shocked that Edward would ask who his grandfather was. Especially since we had just moved into town. "Uh, Mike Newton, and yes, he is still around but he's not doing well. Alzheimer's , " Andrew spoke. "One time, a few years go, I was driving with him, out to the Cullen place, and he told me how he loved the Swan girl. Hey…Cullen…Your last name is Cullen…You related to those Cullens?"

I had told Edward before we moved back that we should change up our last names more than Hale and Cullen, but he refused. He said one of us had to stay a Cullen. I was beginning to think that we should have switched up the last names for sure. "Yes, those Cullens were our ancestors," Edward started. "I'm the eldest son of those Cullens namesake is what I'm told."

Mr. Anders came walking back to our table. I could tell that he was sure that we were goofing off instead of working. He was shocked to see that we had finished all of the project he had laid out before us. "Well, done," he complimented. "I guess you two wont be needing my help too often this semester. Not once did you ask and you have done perfectly."

It wasn't much longer that the bell rang once more. It was like dejavu, Edward and I ended up in biology together again, right after lunch. I looked to Edward and grinned. "What are you thinking my love?" he asked.

I laid my head against his shoulder as we walked toward our lockers. "I was thinking, this time, I will definitely have to skip blood-typing," I laughed. Edward joined in my laughter as we walked down the hallway. Welcome back to Forks.
