CHAPTER 8
When I walked in I noticed the big one, Emmet, talking with the teacher. He was telling him there were two empty seats and he could choose which one he wanted. Emmet waited in the front of the class, and when almost everyone was there the teacher pointed out the seat beside me, and one between Jessica Stanley and Lauren Mallory and the other emty seat. The two girls smiled at him but suprisingly he turned towards me. Everyone in the class was visibly suprised when his loud voice boomed "Bella!" and he claimed empty the seat to my left.
"Hey Emmet! How's your day been?" I whispered to him, hopinghe'd get the hint to be quieter.
It worked some. He lowered his voice a bit so the teacher wouldn't hear him, but those sitting next ot us could. "It's been cool. Rose and I have our first two classes together and Jazz is with us in Chemistry. I was a bit worried no one would be here with me but here you are! This is great!"
He was so excited to have me in the class with him, and I was too. He looks really scary but I have a feeling he's just a big teddy bear!! I smiled at him and told him I was glad he was here too. I was a bit louder than I needed to be when I asked "So, How long have you and Rosalie been together?"
I think he understood I was trying to tell the other girls still ogling him that he was taken because he matched my pitch in his reply of "forever!" His face light up when I mentioned Rosalie, I think he must really love her.
Just then the teacher began the torturous class hour. After the suprisingly short lesson I told Emmet of Edwards offer to tutor me after school tomorrow. He all but begged me to join them saying "I always feel like a dummy 'cause I'm the only one in the house that needs help with math. Having someone else there would make me feel so much better. And it'll be fun!! Come on..please?!"
I told him the same thing I told Edward: that I'd have to ask my parents. He seemed so excited to have someone share in his misery. I really wished I could just say yes! We worked together on some of the problems until the bell rang telling us to go to lunch!
