Chapter 3

A/N: I noticed that I forgot to mention that I don't own any of these characters, that's all Stephanie Meyer.

Also, as of right now, I have no plans of changing the story from Bella's POV. Hope you enjoy!!

It was Monday morning and me and Edward decided it was time to head up to the house to get everyone together for school. Esme greeted us in the kitchen since she was cooking Renesmee breakfast. With all the years that she spent with Jacob on the reservation, Renesmee ate more human food than she did animals. Edward was pleased with this, the thought of his daughter hunting still made him nervous.

I started to sit down on the tall bar stool when I heard Renesmee stirring awake. I could hear her slowly walk to the bathroom and start the shower. I wanted to go upstairs and help her pick something out to wear, but Edward grabbed my arm and sat me back down. "Unless you want Alice to give you a makeover, you'll stay down here." I loved it when he was right.

Jasper came downstairs first. After chatting with Edward about the driving arrangements to school, he decided to help Esme with the rest of breakfast for his favorite niece. Soon, Alice and Renesmee bounded down the steps. My daughter looked so gorgeous. Alice dressed her in a black off the shoulder shirt, and bellbottom jeans. Renesmee accessorized with a silver charm bracelet that Jacob made for her years ago and big hoop earrings. Because of the flare in her jeans Renesmee had to wear some really tall black heels.

"Bella!" Alice exclaimed, "Look at you." Her face was twisted in shock and surprise.

I looked down at myself. I thought I did okay. I admit I did get dressed in a hurry but I was grabbed a denim sleeveless dress. It came a few inches above my knees and had buttons that ran down from the bust to where my bellybutton was. The dress was very form fitting. I finished the look off with a matching denim belt, and denim peek-a-boo 4 inch heel shoes. "What, Alice?" I honestly couldn't see what the problem was. The dress was one of my favorite outfits that I bought from yesterday's shopping trip.

I gave a quick glance around the room to see how everyone was reacting. Renesmee simply went to the table and started stuffing food down her throat, while Edward, Jasper, and Esme were laughing. Apparently there was a joke I wasn't in on. "Bella, you look amazing! I'm so proud of you. It seems my keen fashion sense has finally rubbed off on you." It was true I didn't mind Alice's never-ending shopping trips, more often than not, I looked forward to them. "There's just one thing missing," she said as she gathered my hair to one side and wrapped my hair into a side wept ponytail. "There, you're ready now." Alice inspected everyone and once she gave the final okay, we piled into Edward's Mercedes. Since being a vampire I've had 20 first day of high school jitters. They've gotten better with time and now I treat them as if I was Rosalie. Well not so much, I don't revel in the glory like Rose does, but I don't shy away from it either.

Edward of course was driving really fast and within five minutes, I could hear the conversations of all of the students of Forks High School in the parking lot as if we were there already. I could feel Jasper calming us down, though I shook him off. I didn't need it though I could tell that Renesmee was nervous. I watched as he started soothing her with calmness and confidence, and she looked so much better. I looked to Jasper and nodded my head in thanks. Edward parked the car in an open spot in the parking lot, but he didn't turn it off. "Now Renesmee, I know we've been through this before, but remember you must call us by our first names, and don't use your special talents in school."

Renesmee was just too eager to start the day, so as soon as she assured us she would obey, she hopped out the car. The rest of us followed suit, and Edward started scanning the student body for anyone that might be suspicious of us. I let down my shield and asked him if anything stood out. After a moment, he slightly bowed his head and shook it, all the while rubbing his eye like he had something in it. Only I knew that he was telling me no.

We had to act like we didn't know our way to the administrative office, after all this was our first day here. Edward stopped a girl on our way to the buildings, just to play up the charade. I knew immediately that this girl had a innocent mind, otherwise Edward wouldn't have even bothered. "Hello, I am Edward Cullen," he said stepping away from us, he didn't want to overwhelm her. "Would you mind telling me where the admin office is?"

The girl took a hesitant moment as if she was surprised that she was actually being spoken to. Once getting over her shock, she gave him the directions he had requested. "I'm sorry, I didn't catch your name.''

"Oh, I'm sorry, it's Sarah, Sarah Moore." She was so meek and shy. I immediately thought of Angela Weber. She was really the only one of my human friends that I missed. Edward once told me how from time to time he would listen to Jessica Stanley's thoughts and most of them were filled with contempt for me. Sarah was so quiet even saying her name and when she noticed all of us looking at her, she lowered her eyes, but not before she blushed.

As Edward was walking back to us, I saw him crack a slight smile. I was about to ask him what was up but Jasper beat me to it. "What did you hear?" Edward was chuckling to himself as he lifted his arm around me and kissed me on my forehead.

"Nothing, a few girls are shocked that I took the time out of being gorgeous to talk to her. They're debating whether or not to corner her and ask her all types of questions about me," he said as he was still laughing.

We walked silently to the office after that, Edward still had a smile on his face. It was easy for us to know what he was hearing because when he heard something amusing, he'd pull me in tighter for a sweet embrace. If it was something bad we had to listen to him growl.

The administrative office looked the same. The walls were in need of a fresh coat of paint, as it was a icky peeling yellow now. The name plate on the reception desk said Miss Gerbera, and who I could only assume to be Miss Gerbera was sitting behind the desk shuffling papers around. I guess we entered the office a little too quiet because she was startled when she looked up and saw 5 beautiful teenagers standing in front of her.

"Can I help you?" Her heart rate was speeding up and I was now amused as I heard her catching her breath.

"Hi, my name is Alice Brandon, and these are my adoptive siblings, we're new to the school." I was shocked that Alice spoke up, usually Edward did the talking. As if she was reading my mind, Alice answered in a voice too low and fast for humans to hear, "If she heard Edward speak, she was going to faint and hit her head on the desk. It seems our young Miss Gerbera has developed a crush on our Edward." Now it was my turn to chuckle. Edward did seem to have an effect of dazzling people, I've just never seen it to the point that the person actually hurt themselves in the process. Emmett would have loved to see that.

"Oh right, you were registered by Dr. and Mrs. Cullen. Well here are your schedules and map. If you need anything or have any questions, please feel free to stop in. And don't forget to have your teachers sign your slips and return them here at the end of the day." We walked out of the office but I could feel Miss Gerbera's eyes on our backs. "Can you imagine adopting five kids all the same age?" She asked someone that was in the office, "And they all look alike, gorgeous." Of course since we were out of the office, she suspected we were out of hearing range, but all of us heard her.

Alice already told us what our schedules were. For first period, I had Geometry with Jasper and Edward. Alice and Renesmee had Fashion. 2nd period was gym, all of us somehow were together. Third period saw me and Edward in Biology. Jasper and Alice were in English, while Renesmee had Economics. Fourth period was English for me, Edward and Renesmee leaving Biology for Jasper and Alice. Lunch was after that, and again were all together. Spanish was my sixth period class with Alice and Renesmee. Jasper and Edward were in Latin. All of us were in History for seventh period. And the last period of the day found me and Jasper together for Computer Sciences, Edward in music, Renesmee in Biology, and finally Alice in geometry. This was going to be interesting.

It was raining out, so the moss on the trees and buildings looked greener than they normally do. Alice and Renesmee split up from us and headed towards the 2nd building where their fashion class was starting in a few minutes. Me and Edward resisted the urge to hug our daughter before she left. At school, she was my boyfriend's twin sister, not my daughter.

The three of us walked to geometry, in order to look human, Edward and Jasper were joking with each other about jumping Emmett when we got home. I was walking alongside them with my arm around Edward's waist. Nothing special happened in geometry. Edward kept whispering what people were thinking of us while we sat in the back of the class. Our teacher, Mr. Mozilla decided that he wanted to see how competent the three new students were and kept asking us questions, even though we weren't raising our hands. After a few minutes of not stumping us, he gave up and started teaching about triangles.

Gym was pretty much the same, nothing exciting happened. We all kept reminding each other not to use our full strength or speed. People would know something was definitely off if we could throw a ball clear across the gym.

After gym, we went to locker rooms and changed. Next was Biology with Edward so I was excited. We met up outside of the gym and he gave me a long passionate kiss. "Hmmmm, not that I'm complaining, but what was that about?" I smiled dreamingly into his amber eyes.

"You see that guy over there?" Edward asked. I looked and nodded when I saw the boy he was talking about. "Well, when he saw you step out of the locker room, he had some pretty vile fantasies about you. When I looked up at him, his friend started thinking, "Newton is going to get us killed if he doesn't stop leering at her." I gasped as I heard him say the name.

Now that I looked at him again, the kid did have some resemblance to Mike. He had a more athletic build but he had the same pudgy cheeks and blonde hair that Mike had. I was instantly repulsed that him and his great-great grandfather had the same thoughts about me.

We walked to English in silence for the most part. I was thinking of my human life and all the times Mike Newton tried to hook up with me. Edward was no doubt concentrating on the thoughts of all of the teenagers that were in the hallways.

The classroom was pretty much full when we walked in. Renesmee was already talking to two of the girls she met today. Unfortunately, me and Edward would not be sitting together in this class, but as I looked around I saw the seat that I wanted. I walked slightly faster than Edward to sit down next to Sarah. I knew he wouldn't mind when he realized the only other open seat was next to Mike Newton's progeny. I just hoped that he didn't do anything stupid. I didn't want to move away from Forks, we just got here.

"Hi, I'm Bella Masen, you're Sarah Moore, right?"

"Yeah, umm, how did you know my name?" She looked so scared, I felt bad for her.

Crap, I forgot we were standing too far away to actually "hear" the conversation between her and Edward. "You met my boyfriend earlier, Edward Cullen. He told me you were the one that gave us the directions to get to the office."

"Oh, yeah," she seemed satisfied with my explanation and was fine. As scared as she was, I was shocked that she continued a conversation with me until the teacher called the class to order. I glanced over to Edward, to make sure he was okay. I knew sitting next to the Newton kid wasn't going to be easy for him, but he seemed fine. I let my shield down and asked him if he was ok. When he nodded yes in a way only I knew what he was truly doing, I was able to relax.

Sarah kept looking at me out of the corner of her eye. Normally I would have shied away from the attention she was throwing my way but, I now welcomed it. Dang, I really was spending too much time around Rose.

I let down my shield once again, and let Edward know that I loved him and started sending him thoughts about the past few years together with him. I didn't realize how lost in my thoughts I was until Sarah slipped me note. I carefully unfolded it and was horrified at what I read.

"What are you?"
