CHAPTER 5

Edward...I nearly melted when I heard his name. Why the hell was I reacting like this?!

"We're all adopted!" she said.

"Umm...I'm supposed to take you and him" motioning to Edward "to the office to get your schedules. I think the others are supposed to go with Tanya over there but I'm not sure." I pointed to the bench where Tanya was and saw her walking away. "You can all come with me though, and then wai here for whoever's supposed to show the seniors around."

They all agreed to come with me and after they got their schedules decided to stay with Alice while Emmet and Rosalie went off somewhere on their own. Alice and Jasper had first period Spanish II with me then Edward and I had AP English III together. None of them were in my Trigonometry class but the four of us had the same lunch and I saw that Edward would have Biology with me! I don't know why that made me so happy. I was told Emmet and Rosalie had lunch at the same time as us too. That was nice. I think I have Gym with Alice, but I'm not sure. I showed them to their classes, and warned them about some of the teachers.

Alice seemed to like me, although I'm not sure why. Japser was quiet and Edward...he was distant but seemed interested when I would talk. I showed them the cafeteria and pointed out where some of the people sat. Alice asked about a table that was usually empty, and decided they'd sit there for lunch, and asked me if I'd join them.

"Please Bella! You're my first friend here! I want to get to know you!" She said when she noticed me hesitate. I finally gave in to her request. What's one lunch? The bell was about to ring, and other students were openly staring at the Cullens so I suggested we show Edward where his Calculus class was and then go to Spanish.

When we got to our class Jasper and Alice spoke to the teacher. Alice got the seat on my left, with Jasper right in front of her. I thought about my other classes and realized the empty seats were always next to me, so they would always have to sit near me. It made me kind of happy knowing my new 'friends' would be close by, and I hoped they wouldn't listen to the rumors about me. My thoughts were cut off by Senor Martinez beginning the lesson.
