Here's another chapter. I'm using music as my inspiration to write this, and though at the moment, it is about 2:15 am, I am still going to give you a story. Enjoy it. I'm sorry if there are spelling and grammar mistakes, but if you'll please understand, I am doing this instead of sleeping although I'm very tired
I don't own Twilight or anything that goes with it. Shucks.
Thanks to my friends (you know who you are).
Thanks to anybody who reviewed the last chapter.

I was so relieved to get out of that car and finally get to see the school I would be going to.
Sure, I love Emmett and Jasper but I was stuck with them for 5 whole days! I mean, they have been my best friends since the day we were born. We aren't brothers or anything, but our moms all had rooms right next to each other while they were giving birth –when I say rooms, I mean one giant room separated by curtains- so, they became very close friends. We just got caught in the camaraderie, and what'dya know? Now the three of us can't be separated.
The ride over to New York was very painful. I had to sit in the backseat of Emmett's Jeep, and as comfortable as that may seem, you aren't counting all of the crap that we were bringing with us from Florida. We were there on Spring break, but as soon as our little vacation trip was over, we were starting at a new school. Of course, Emmett being Emmett wanted to drive all the way to New York from Florida in his Jeep. Dumb ass.
But, I'm not as big as Emmett, so I didn't start a fight. I just sat back there patiently waiting as Emmett drove 200 mph on the surface streets. Jasper was asleep most of the time forcing me to read and attempt to have some intellectual conversations with Emmett. That didn't really work.
When we arrived, I was the first one out of the car.
NYB-HIGH was an all girls' school, but today we were changing that. Jasper came up behind me. "I hope they have some good looking girls here, because you and I seriously need girlfriends." He was right. Out of the three of us, Emmett was the only one with a girlfriend.
Rosalie suddenly showed up behind us, one of her arms around Jasper and my shoulders and the other around Emmett's waist.
Wow. Speak of the Devil and she shall come.
"Hey Rose," Jasper and I said in unison, no emotion present in either of our voices. It was always weird for us to have Rosalie around, even if she was Emmett's girlfriend. Rosalie was no doubt about it, very beautiful, but blondes aren't my type. I never saw her as more than an acquaintance.
We stood there for about an hour waiting for entrance into the school. Finally, it was our turn. The three of us stood in a line and walked in as Rosalie went off to go find someone else to hang out with. I took a deep breath, and walked in.
The school looked just like any other boarding school.
Buildings of all shapes and sizes surrounded a mob of girls waiting for us to enter. I looked at a few of their faces. None of them appealed to me. I searched through everyone, not finding a single person that I would want to go up to and ask out. As I hunted through the crowd, I began growing more and more anxious to find a girl.
My eyes fell on two particular girls standing in front.
"FUCK." Jazz and I said at the exact same moment.
There, standing in front of us were the two prettiest girls I had ever seen, not including Rosalie. The one on the right was cute, but she was a bit too short for my liking. I saw Jazz gaping at her like she was his dinner. Great. We've been here all of 5 minutes and he's already whipped. Fan-fucking-tastic!
The one on the left was a different story. She was more beautiful than Rosalie. Her long brown hair was perfectly straight at the top, then about half-way through, it got wavier and wavier until, right at her hips, it made perfect little ringlets. Her body was perfectly proportioned, and because I am a man, I couldn't help noticing her perky boobs. Damn, I would love to grope those any day. No, Edward! Get a hold of yourself! She was wearing a white tank top underneath a sheer, baby blue long sleeve. Both were v-necks, so I got a good view. She had on slightly faded jeans and baby blue heels with silver lace outlining them, to match the shirt. Her face was gorgeous. Her skin was perfectly clear, and she had flawless, plump, pink lips. Her eyes were closed, so I mentally pleaded with her to open them.
She did, and I saw the most amazing eyes I have ever seen in my history of looking at people's eyes. They were wide and brown with long, full lashes. Now that I could see her whole face, I noticed the smaller details like how her upper lip was a little plumper than her bottom lip, but that only made her more beautiful. I also saw something in her eyes that I hadn't noticed before. They showed some emotion, though I couldn't quite put my finger on it. It looked to be defeat.
All of the defeat left her eyes as soon as she saw us. I saw her mouth the words 'oh my God' at the same time the little one next to her did. The two of them stood there, gaping at Emmett. I chuckled a little to myself. Their eyes shifted over to Jasper who was still staring at the small one. I saw my girl staring at him, her eyes as big as they could possibly get, and her mouth hanging open a little.
Her gaze shifted once again, to meet mine. Her eyes grew even wider. If that's possible. We stared into each other's eyes for what seemed like forever until, suddenly, she averted her gaze. I couldn't believe it. I stared down at the ground wondering why she would look away.
Out of the corner of my eye, I found her ogling me. Hmm. She was staring at my face, and then, once again she got that bit of defeat in her eyes. I decided that at lunch I was going to talk to her.

I went through the entire day thinking about him. About his green eyes. About his perfect bronze hair and how I wish I could just run my fingers through it. I thought about his perfectly sculpted muscles. I thought about how much I wished he would feel the same way about me as I felt about him.
When the bell rang for lunch, I was the last person to get up. I didn't really want to have to face him.
As soon as I stepped out of the classroom, Alice was at my side with a beautiful blonde girl. Great. Just what I need, another beauty queen making me look like a piece of dog shit. "I see you've made a new friend," I said, lifting my chin and pointing it in the direction of the new girl. "Yup! Bella, this is Rosalie, Rosalie, meet my cousin Bella." Alice introduced us in her cute little high pitched voice.
I smiled, and said hello in a quiet voice. Rosalie did the same. "God! Why do you guys have to be so awkward?!" Alice screeched. I sighed as did Rosalie, and we started laughing. "Jeez Alice, you need to understand that not everybody is as energetic as you," I told her. Rosalie laughed and said "Really Alice, you do." Then she turned to me and said "The second I stepped into the classroom, she started patting the seat next to her. Next thing I know, I'm in the middle of math and the only thing I can hear is 'we should really go shopping together. I mean, I love your outfit. You're so pretty you make me want to squeal!' And the sad part was that she actually did squeal in the middle of class."
I had to hold onto the locker next to me to keep from falling, I was laughing so hard.
When my laughing calmed a little bit, I managed to get out "Yep that sounds like Alice alright."
The three of us laughed some more as we made our way to the cafeteria. I had completely forgotten about the guy until now as I saw him walking with the two others from this morning. I sighed and tried to look somewhere else.
Two things happened in that moment. One, Rose ran up to the really buff guy, and kissed him on the cheek. Two, the buff guy grabbed her around the waist, and the four of them started making their way over to us.
My heart rate picked up, and it took a lot of effort to try to control my breathing. Alice on the other hand wasn't even attempting to control hers. Her breathing was so loud that I'm sure even the people outside could hear it. I rolled my eyes, but then realized what was going on. Rosalie knew the guys and she was bringing them over to meet us. My breathing became as loud as Alice's.
When they reached us, I was literally swallowing air and my face probably looked like I was going into a convulsion. My eyes fluttered closed, and I tried my very hardest not to pass out. When I opened my eyes, they were standing right in front of us all smiling in their god-like state. Damn I envy them.
We all waited. I think Rose got the point that we were waiting for her because she grinned and said "Okay, I guess I'll introduce everybody." She looked to Alice and said "Em, Edward, Jazz, this is Alice." Alice blushed a little and then curtsied at her name. I chuckled and put my hand on my hip, waiting for my turn to curtsy.
Rose looked at me and said "And, this is Bella. She and Alice are cousins." I curtsied, probably blushing a lot more than Alice had. I looked back to Rose, and she turned around to introduce us to her other friends.
She turned to the buff one that had his arm wrapped around her first and said "Alice, Bella, this is my boyfriend, Emmett." Emmett dutifully bowed and then grinned at Rosalie showing us all his cute little dimples. "Although he may seem very intimidating," Rose continued," Trust me, he's just a big teddy bear. I've seen him kill a fly and then cry about it for twenty minutes." Emmett's serene expression changed to one of shock as his eyes grew wide and he glared at Rosalie. She just giggled, shrugged, and kissed him on the cheek. He sighed and rolled his eyes.
God, I would give anything to be in a relationship.
Rose introduced us to Blondie next. "This is Jasper, but we all call him Jazz." Jasper or "Jazz" bowed respectfully, like Emmett, but then straightened up and began ogling Alice. She noticed. She smiled at him and I could hear her breathing pick up again.
Last but not least was my guy. "And, this is Edward," she said indifferently while shrugging. "Gee, thanks Rose," he said. My mouth fell open a little as I heard his voice. It was almost as beautiful as his face. Breathe Bella, breathe. We don't want him to think you're crazy do we? No.
We all smiled at each other and stood there, none of us really knowing what to do. I didn't fail to notice that the entire cafeteria was watching us like hawks, just waiting to see what our next move was going to be. "Why don't we go find a table 'cause I'm starving?" Alice's shrill voice snapped us all out of our thoughts. Everyone agreed, so we went to sit down.
I pulled out some fettuccini that I had made the night before, and started eating. Everyone stared at it. I looked up and smiled, letting my gaze meet each of theirs. "Um, can I help you guys with something?" The all just continued staring at my food. Emmett was the first to speak up.
"That smells fucking amazing, Bella!" I laughed and said "Thanks, Emmett. Would you like some?" He didn't speak he just nodded. I giggled quietly to myself while I scooped some of it onto a plate. I passed it over to Emmett. He smiled appreciatively and dug in.
"FUUUHHCCKK!" Emmett practically yelled. Everyone in the cafeteria turned to look at him. He blushed and turned back to look at me. "Bella, this is the best thing I have ever tasted in my life!" I grinned. "Thank you."
As Emmett and I continued eating, everyone else quietly got up and threw their lunches away. I laughed. They all looked at me. "Yes, you can all have some too." They all smiled appreciatively as I served them.
As I served Edward his plate, our hands touched and in that second, I felt a jolt of electricity. I dropped the plate in front of him, and the sauce splattered all over his face. I covered my mouth with my hand and dug through my backpack to get a napkin. He smiled at me as he took it, and wiped his face off.
"I'm really sorry." I smiled apologetically.
"It's O.K. And, Emmett's right. This is the best thing I have ever tasted in my life!" He continued eating enthusiastically.
I grinned, but on the inside I felt like I was going to explode. Edward freaking – I stopped myself. I didn't even know his last name. "So, what are your last names?" I asked, truly curious. I only really wanted to know Edward's so that I could finish my brain exclamation, but I thought that it might be kinda weird if I only ask him.
Jasper looked up from his plate. "Mine's Whitlock, Emmett's is McCarty, Rosalie's is Hale, and Edward's is Cullen. How 'bout you guys?" "Mine is Swan and Alice's is Brandon," I told him.
He nodded and went back to eating. At least now I had his last name, so I mentally continued my brain exclamation.
Edward Freaking Cullen said my pasta was the best thing he's ever tasted!
There. I feel better now.
Ok, so this isn't entirely based off of my life either, but I promise you it will come soon. I just need the characters to get to know each other better.
PLEASE review! It'll make me feel happier than compliments about my fettuccini!
Here, Thea. This is for you. You were very patient and I finished this while you were at the movies. I hope you enjoy it.
Love,
