Loving an Angel
Chapter 23: New School
Casey POV
"Casey are you almost ready for school your breakfast is getting cold!" Esme yelled up the stairs to me. I was scrambling around my mess of a room trying to find the perfect outfit for my first day at my new school. The whole house was a disaster zone and it looked like a tornado had come through. We had moved in just two days ago and nobody had really unpacked.
I dashed around and found something that actually wasn't wrinkled or in a box. I put on cream leggings with a sort jean skirt and a designer cream V-neck sweater with the sleeves pushed up to my elbows along with my black Converse low tops and a hair pin holding back my almost grown out side bang. I was almost ready to go. I ran into the bathroom and applied my makeup the way I normally did and ran down the stairs where my breakfast awaited me.
I ate in a rush exchanging quick remarks with my family and ran back upstairs to brush my teethe and grab my backpack. Then it was time to go to my new school. It was already over a month into the year and I would be the new girl that didn't know a soul. All of my friends would be at the high school over a mile away from me.
I skipped back down the stairs and saw that Rosalie and Alice were the only ones waiting for me with Esme, as Carlisle had started his new job at the local hospital today and had to leave early.
"Oh I hope you like your new school!" Esme said as she hugged me and kissed my cheek goodbye.
"I certainly hope so too!" I said looking up at her with a smile. I turned to look at my sisters and Rosalie opened the door. Alice wrapped her arm around my waist and pulled me close to her.. I was finally four foot six inches only a few inches shorter than her, but I was still weighed quite a bit less. She weighed around eighty five pounds I estimated and I only weighed about sixty.
We walked to the cars. Emmett and Jasper sat in Rosalie's new convertible in the front why Edward sat in the driver's seat of his new shiny Volvo. I like his new car, he said he wanted to try something different from his usual cars and that's why he got it, but I could tell the car was slowly growing on him and becoming like all the others his baby and true love.
Rose climbed into the seat of her car and Alice and I got into Edward's car.
"Are we ready to go?" He asked looking at Alice who sat in the passengers seat next to him and then toward me in the back.
"I think so," Alice said turning to wink at me. I laughed quietly. I would never meet another person like Alice for as long as I live, which will either be very short or very long based on what happens with the Volturi.
We pulled out of the driveway and drove toward the town. When we got into town we drove along Maple Street and then at the intersection Rosalie turned right toward the high school and we kept going straight toward the middle school.
We pulled into the parking spot and got out and all eyes were on us. Alice pushed me forward with her hand after Edward who approaching what I guesses was one of the teachers.
"Miss? My little sister here is a new student and our mother just wanted us to get her settles before we went to school," Edward explained, but the teacher didn't seem to hear him as she starred wide eyed at each of us.
"Ummm? Oh! You sister well…Umm. Let's go into the main office right over here," She said smiling down at me and leading us toward the school.
The office was almost identical to the one in my old school. The same tacky decorations and ugly furniture. The teacher that led us in had told us to sit as she ran to one of the doors knocked and went in. A couple of seconds later another woman who was much older followed her out of the room and walked over to me as the teacher left to return to her duties outside.
"Hello, I'm Mrs. Schafer. You must be Casey Cullen we have heard so much about you and your family it's all the town had talked about for two weeks since you delayed your move."
"Hi yes I'm Casey and these are two of siblings. My sister Alice and my brother Edward. We delayed out move so I could ride my pony in a horse show and spend one last birthday in my old town," I explained.
"That's very nice. Now I have your schedule and locker number right here and if you need anything don't be afraid to drop in," She said and we left to go back outside where students stood in the morning. Alice and Edward turned to me. The realization struck me abruptly. They had to leave me here and go to their new school with the others.
"Case I think we have to go now," Alice said looking down at me with sad eyes.
"Yeah we don't want to be late on the first day," Edward added.
"I guess," I said looking down at my feet.
"You will be okay right?" Alice asked picking up on my nerves.
"Yea go ahead I'll be fine."
"Alright we'll be here to pick you up after school over there by that telephone pole," Edward explained pointing across the street. They walked back to the Volvo got on and sped away leaving me here all alone with a bunch of strangers that kept looking at me. Just great.
The bell rang and I followed behind the other kids up to the third floor where my locker and homeroom were. Everyone was constantly watching me, but this wasn't the first time and I knew exactly why. They had all seen the car, my clothes, and Alice and Edward. They saw how beautiful my brother and sister were and they could also tell by the way we dressed and by Edward's car that we had money. Sometimes maybe it would be better if we were just average.
The first two periods passed by slowly. Nobody had enough guts to talk to me so I sat quietly through the class and listened to the teacher and the whispers of my classmates. I didn't have to hear what they said to know they were about me.
Finally in Math a girl came over and sat next to me. She was taller than me and had straight dark hair that hung about an inch below her shoulders.
"Hi I'm Meghan and you must be Casey," She introduced herself.
"Yeah that's me," I said quietly.
"Everyone's been waiting for you for a while now,"
"I wanted to spend my birthday in my old town and stuff," I explained.
"That's cool. Do you play any sports?" She asked.
"I ride horses."
"That's cool do you own your own?" She asked me as she looked over my clothes probably picking up on their designer roots.
"I own a pony named Catty," I told her and the class started.
So far it seemed like all of the teachers were nice. I really likes my math teacher he was really funny.
After math was lunch and I sat with Meghan and her friends at a big table. I met all of them. There was Elizabeth, Jennifer, and Albena. They all seemed very nice and they were head over heels for a vampire book called Twilight. If they only knew!
