-Alice's POV-

We got back from hunting in the nick of time to head to school. I tried not to hurry, but I had been waiting for this day for so long. I was really nervous, even though I knew I wasn't going to actually meet her today. I would do like I told everyone else. I will stay at a distance, until I figured out out she is, and go from there. Jasper put his hand on my thigh, and I immediately felt the calming waves flow through my body. My foot let off the gas a little and I felt much better, but I knew this wouldn't last.

We arrived at school like any other day. The parking lot was full and everyone was mingling with their own groups. As I turned around to lock the door to the Volvo, I spotted a rusty red pick-up truck, that I didn't recognize, on the other side of the lot. Suddenly I got the tingly feeling again. It was her.

Knowing that she was actually here, made me want to cry. Edward put his hand on my back and gave me a little push toward the doors. We slowly walked into the school, Edward still holding onto me because I wasn't exactly paying attention to where I was going. I just kept thinking about that truck that belonged to the girl of my dreams.

The first half of the day went by extremely slow. I stared at the walls mostly, but my eyes often found their way out the window to the pick-up truck. After each class, Edward and Jasper would meet up with me, and ask how I was doing. Even though they already knew, they were just doing it for my sake. It was driving me crazy, but I couldn't help it...I wanted to see her so badly. It wasn't until Spanish class when I overheard Mike Newton talking about the new girl. That immediately caught my attention, and I began to listen in on his conversation. Of course, how could I not put two and two together? The new girl, Bella Swan, is...my girl.

He went on and on about her for at least twenty minutes, saying how cute she was, and that she was really nice but shy. I didn't like others talking about her, but I obviously didn't say anything to them. I had no right to. I hadn't even met Bella yet, let alone actually see her. I was jealous that so many people had already laid their eyes upon her before me. And I had to wait. It didn't seem quite fair to me. I was happy to get out of that class and away from Mike and his new obsession with Bella, but I still had another class before lunch. I just knew this was going to drag on.

A painful hour and thirty minutes later, we were released for lunch. I quickly gathered my things, stuffing them into my backpack, and headed out the door. Edward and Jasper were already waiting in the hall for me, like usual. We made our way into the cafeteria, and got our food that we weren't going to eat, and sat down with Emmett and Rosalie. I couldn't stop looking at the door, waiting for her to come. Once again, Jasper put his hand on me and I immediately calmed down. I relaxed back into my seat, and that's when I heard Eric.

"Hey, there's Bella." He said casually to Angela.

I looked up to where he was looking...and there she was. It's like everything was in slow motion all of a sudden. I saw her turn her head and look around the room, her eyes stopping on us. Sweeping from Emmett, to Rose, to Edward, to Jasper, and then me. We made eye contact and it was like the world stood still. All I could see was her, and all I could hear, was the fluttering of her heart.

I felt the rest of my family follow my gaze to the front of the room where she was, but I was still in my own little world. Listening to her heart beat blood though her veins under her beautiful skin. Our eyes met for what was only a few seconds, but felt like an eternity to me. Her beautiful chocolate brown eyes were shy, and she looked away quickly.

"She feels it too..." Jasper said quietly. "It confuses her."

"Why?" Asked Rose.

"I don't know. I read emotions, not minds, Rose."

"Edward?"

"Sorry, I'm no help here either. Her thoughts are so muffled I can't make them out."

"That's interesting." Emmett interjected.

"I've never experience this before, but it shouldn't be a surprise since Alice can't see her clearly in her visions."

"Then how come Jasper can feel her emotions?" Rose asked.

"Maybe it's because both of your gifts are mental. What I do is physical. Like when I'm calming someone down, I'm not making you think you are calming down, you actually physically are." Jasper explained.

I knew that I was staring, but I still couldn't take my eyes off of her. Every few minutes she would glance over at me, our eyes would meet, her cheeks would fill with her warm blood, and she would shyly look away. When I finally took my eyes off her for the first time, the others were all looking at me.

"Nice of you to join us again." Emmett said with a big grin on his face.

"So, what do you think?" Edward asked.

"...She's beautiful..." I managed to get out.

"Well, that's obvious. I meant, what do you think she is, if anything?"

"She has a heartbeat, and she looks rather normal." Rose said.

"The shape shifters in La Push look normal too, until they burst into wolves that is." Said Emmett.

"I'll just have to observe her. If she is anything supernatural, I'll find out." I said.

And that was that. The rest of the lunch period we pretended to eat and quietly talked to each other, but I never let Bella out of my sight for too long. The warning bell rung and everyone scattered and headed to class. Edward and I had Biology, so we walked together like always. I was still thinking about Bella, replaying every moment of her back in my head. I almost ran into a pole because I was so intent on seeing her again. Thanks to Edward, he pulled me out of the way before I embarrassed myself. I looked at him apologetically, but he understood. He day dreamed about Jasper every second of the day after he had seen him in one of my visions.

They were hopelessly in love with each other from the moment they met. And although it was a little sickening to be around sometimes, I've always wanted what they have. Pure love. Never wanting to be apart. Someone that is there when you are having a rough day. Someone to kiss all your worries away. Your other half.

I took my seat in Bio, waiting not so patiently for the period to start. Edward sat a couple rows from me, taking his usual seat as the bell rang. I began staring out the window, into the forest behind the school...anxiously awaiting for not only this class to be over, but the whole day. The teacher started talking and I tried my best to ignore him, but failed.

"Afternoon everyone. There are some questions on the board I'd like you to answer, so-"He stopped for a second. "Well, hello. You must be Bella Swan."

Now that got my attention, but I kept my eyes on the forest to my right.

"Yes. I'm sorry that I'm late..."

"That's alright. It's your first day, it happens.

I heard the rustling of a piece of paper, which I assumed was the class schedule.

"Go ahead and find an empty seat, Bella."

It took a second before I heard her move, then she walked to the back of the class and sat in the only available seat back here...next to Edward.
