"My grandpa" I lied.
BPOV:
"I'm sorry to hear that" Edward said sympathetic.
"Thanks; so what is your schedule?" I asked changing the subject.
"Biology, world history, speech, and algebra" he read off his schedule to me.
"Nice, do you know what lunch you have?" I asked.
"I have C lunch; what lunch do you have" he asked interested.
"I have C too" I replied.
"I'll see you at lunch then" he said proudly with a gorgeous smirk on his face and I blushed from being embarrassed.
RING!!
I grabbed my books and walked to my next class gym; I hated going to gym it is not a good class for the uncoordinated. I had gym with Mike and Jessica; I wasn't looking forward to having to talk to them especially after their last conversation.
"Bells there you are; I just want to apologize for what I said this morning" Jessica said honestly and then she pulled me into a hug.
"Jessica, I'll forgive you if you let go" I choked out my words because I was loosing breath by her tight hug.
"Oh, sorry I always forget how fragile you are" Jessica teased.
"Time for toture" I said seriously.
"Bells, were doing gymnastics or soccer" Jessica told my choices.
"I used to do gymnastics but then I started to fall every time so I'll chose soccer" I said picking the best choice for me.
"Well, see you later" Jessica yelled to me before walking down to the other gym to do gymnastics.
"Hey Bells, are you okay? I want you to know that I talked to Jessica about being more careful" Mike said sounding like a father not a friend.
"I know, she apologized" I said happily.
"Good to know and good luck Bells" Mike said touching my arm and then leaving to play hardcore soccer with the other students.
"Coach can I do gymnastics instead? There are hardly any girls in here" I asked regretting my decision.
"Go ahead and good luck kiddo I mean it" Coach teased; I left the gym and opened the door to gym B where they are doing easy gymnastics. Like beginners stuff handstand, cartwheel, round-off, and the splits.
"I see you changed your mind" Jessica said greeting me.
"Yes I did they weren't a lot of girls in there" I told her my reason why I left.
"Well Bella, let's see what you can do" Ms. K said not expecting anything good from my routine except a fall. I sighed and stood up; I stepped on the mat and breathed deeply I was trying to remember a easy routine that I knew.
"Miss Swan hurry up, we don't have all day" Ms. K yelled at me putting more pressure on me. I started out with a round off back hand spring, then a cartwheel and then a round off full tuck. I finished with a back hand spring.
"Very well done Miss Swan; I'm impressed" Ms. K congratulated me.
"Thanks" I replied and then I went to the lock room to get ready for my next class.
"Bella you were so good back there you should sign up for gymnastics this year" Jessica exclaimed.
"Thanks but no thanks" I said nicely trying not to offend her.
"Why not? Please Bella, I would love to have my best friend doing gymnastics with me" Jessica said trying to push me to do gymnastics.
"Jessica gymnastics is just not my thing" I said honestly.
"Then what is your thing?" she asked bitterly.
"I don't know but it is definitely not gymnastics" I said harshly.
Ring!!
I ran off to my next class world history; I had it with Eric and Angela.
"We heard what happened and it will not be apart of our feature" Eric said.
"Why would I be on the feature for gymnastics?" I asked confused.
"He is talking about how Edward Cullen has taken a interest in you" Angela explained.
"He has?" I asked baffled.
"Bella so far you are the only girl he has talked to expect for his sisters but that doesn't count" Angela gave me the dish on Edward Cullen. Class started before I could reply; I now was very nervous yet at the same time anxious for lunch. The bell rang for lunch and I was almost shaking at the fact of talking to Edward; he made me so nervous yet he remained to be relatively calm.
"Hi I'm Alice, Edward's sister you must be Bella" a perky voice shierked in my ear.
"Nice to met you" I said kind of cheerful.
"Okay first you are going to sleepover at our house and then we're going to take you shopping for a whole new wardrobe" Alice said ecstatic.
"Would your parents be okay with you sleeping over at our house?" Rosalie asked.
"Her parents aren't even alive" Jessica snickered.
"Jessica shut up!" Mike yelled at her.
"No, what did you mean her parents aren't even alive" Edward asked curious.
"Well her mom died when she was four from breast cancer and when she was twelve her dad was shot in the line of duty" Jessica told my story; Edward looked at me with disgust.
"Why didn't you tell me that?" Edward asked angrily.
"It's normally not the first thing you tell a person" were the only words I could come up with.
"That poem was about your dad wasn't it?" he asked mad; I nodded my head a little but I couldn't look him in the eyes.
"Then you don't have an excuse for lying to me" he said angry.
"I know and I'm sorry but I'm not the girl who is worth all the lies" I said disappointed with myself.
"Edward, I think it's best if you stay far away from Bella because she shouldn't have to go through all this pain again" Mike defended me; I ran out of the lunch room after that and hopped in my truck. I wiped my tears away before opening the truck door and hopping out.
"Skipping school again?" Jacob asked.
"This time was for a better reason" I said.
"How come?" he asked curious.
"I was caught in a lie and a probably the best guy who could have been mine was hurt by my lie" I said with a sad tone in my voice.
"If he can't understand your situation then he isn't worth your time" Jacob tried to cheer me up.
"Not this again" I said annoyed a little.
"Why won't you ever consider dating me?" he asked.
"Your like a brother to me and it would just be awkward" I explained my reason.
"I'm going to hit the hay" I said before going into the house and taking a nap. Whenever I'm depressed I take a nap or go straight to bed depends on the time; the reason why is because my dreams are the safest place I can go to.
Dream: Bella your unhappiness can be gone, all you have to do is find the lake hidden deep in the forest and your prize will await you. Do what I say and you will be able to see your parents again and you won't have to ever be separated from them again.
I woke up from my bizzare dream dripped in sweat.
