Chapter 5: Mike Newton and Texting

I walked to my next class (Biology) with Jasper. We reached the classroom door when he grabbed my shoulder. "I have to warn you now. The only open seat is next to a kid named Mike Newton. He follows every pretty girl he sees like a love sick puppy." He warned me. I blushed at the pretty girl part. I nodded at his warning and turned the door knob.

"I'm Izzy Swan." I greeted Mr. Banner. Mr. Banner was a balding man who was only a few inches taller than me. "Take a seat next to Mr. Newton. Mike raise your hand." A baby-faced boy with pale blonde hair and what looked like a fake spray-on tan raised his arm. I walked to the lab table and took a seat on the stool. "Hi I'm Mike." He whispered. "Izzy." I replied. "It's nice to meet you Iz." He gave me a nickname; I hated it when people gave me a nickname except for in fighting. "My name is Izzy. Ok? I hate nicknames." Mike looked like someone had told him that they ran over his puppy. "Oh, ok then I didn't mean to." He whispered before turning back to his books. Just then my phone vibrated in my pocket. I pulled it out, and saw that I had one new message. It was from Haley. "Izzy, your not gonna believe this, but I talked to some people and they said that there is a street fighting ring in Port Angeles. Some of us are comin up to check it out this weekend. Why don't you show too?" I mentally cheered. Finally I had found something to do around here. I quickly replied to her saying that I wouldn't miss it for the world, and lifted my head back up.

I sat there soaking in what the teacher was saying until the bell rang. Then I gathered my things, and waited for Jasper. "How was it sitting next to Mike?" He asked. "Horrible. He gave me a nickname." I groaned. "Wait, isn't Izzy a nickname?' He looked so confused. "Yea, but I hate Isabella and Bella, so I chose Izzy." He looked like a light bulb went off over his head. "Oh." He smiled, flashing his white teeth. We started to laugh until the late bell rang. Then we ran to our next class which we also had together. We walked into the music room, and got glares from the teacher. "Uh, I'm Izzy Swan." I repeated for the umpteenth time today. "Oh, take a seat next to Mr. Hale. Hale, raise your hand!" She yelled like an angry army general. Jasper raised his hand, and I walked to the desk beside his. "This'll be fun." I whispered. He shot me a quick grin before looking back at the teacher.

Once the final bell rang, I walked out to the parking lot only to see a huge group of people surrounding my car. I decided to have a little fun, and set of my cars alarm. A loud beep, beep, beep filled the school yard. Everyone stood in shock for a minute before turning and running away. I ran down to my car, and unlocked the doors. I looked over to see Edward, the Hale's, and the Cullen's standing around and laughing. I gave them a wicked smirk, and climbed in the driver's side. I started my car and drove away from the school.

I got home, and ran to my room. I had to call Haley and get more information on this fighting ring in Port Angeles. "Haley, give me all the info you have on the fighting ring!" I all but screeched in her ear. "Ok, it happens in an abandoned warehouse every weekend. The champion fighter is named Jackson Scream, but it's probably a stage name like yours." My stage name was Izzy Lights. "Ok, so you're comin up this weekend?" I asked. "Yea, and so are James, Carl, and Taylor." She replied. "Sweet! Well I gotta go. I have homework." We hung up, and I started working on my homework.

I was done my homework at around four thirty. I was thinking of something to do when I remembered I had to go grocery shopping. I grabbed my keys, yelled out a goodbye to Edward, and left. I reached the store twenty minutes later. I walked inside, and did all of my shopping. "This'll hold us awhile. I hope." I said to myself once I left the store. I had just finished putting all the bags in my trunk, when my phone rang. "Bell-Izzy where are you?" Charlie shouted the minute I answered. "I'm at the store; I'm comin home now so you can relax." I calmed him down. "Oh, ok when I came home you weren't here so I got worried." He sounded embarrassed. "Well I'll see you in a few minutes." I said, and hung up. I got in my car and began to drive home.
