Sorry for the longish update but I had lots of work, including several essays, but I'll try to update sooner next time. Well anyways read and enjoy.


If I weren't already dead I think I would have died on the spot! I turned to look Mathieu in the eyes and asked,

"W-what did you say?" He smiled at me kindly and then repeated what I thought was just a figment of my imagination.

"There's a new family that just moved to Maisons Laffite coming to this school, their name is Cullen."

As he said this, we entered the head office and since I was still under the shock of what he had just said, I let them find out what class Bailey was in and what class I was in and let Bailey gently lead me up to my class. Andrea, who had come running up to me, knocked me out of my stupor. She gave me a hug and dragged me to a seat in the back. As I sat down I realized that we were already in the classroom and that Mathieu and Bailey had already gone off to their own classrooms.

The bell rang signaling the start of class and in walked Mr. Rofin, our form teacher. He sat down at his desk and then said:

"Quiet down class! Now as I am sure you all know I am Mr. Rofin and I will be both your economy teacher and your form teacher. Now, so that I may get to know you all a little better, I would like---" He was interrupted by a knock on the door and then it opening and then Mr. Joans, the principal, coming in followed by two boys. They had no heartbeat. One was really tall, had red hair and was covered in almost invisible freckles. The other one was tall, burly and looked like a bear. Emmett! Oh god! What Mathieu said was true! Oh my god, please kill me now!

They stood at the front of the class staring at the back wall, looking bored as hell, while Mr. Joans explained to the class who these two new students were and to be nice to them. 'What are we 5?' I thought with a low snicker as Andrea made faces at the 'new comers' whenever the principal or the teacher weren't looking (which was very unlike her). When Mr. Joans was done talking he left the class and Mr. Rofin directed the two boys to the only empty seats left. As they passed us to get to their seats, Emmett's head, which had been looking at the floor, lifted and looked in our direction. I quickly ducked behind Andrea, pretending to pick up a pen, to prevent him from noticing me.

The rest of class went by really slowly, each time either one of the two new 'boys' looked in my direction I would either turn away or duck down. It was a futile attempt to hide my self because I knew that they could smell me.

When the bell finally rang I bolted out of class, leaving my stuff behind since we had class there again, quickly followed by Andrea. Teo and Bailey who, I suppose each had Cullens in their class as well soon met us up. We huddled in a corner of the hall, away from public eye and Andrea said:

" What are we gonna do? Bella, I know you hate them and you don't want to see them again! But you can't move, you can't leave me!"

"What are you talking about?! Of course I'm not gonna leave you! Just because some people from my past have appeared out of nowhere into my life again does not mean I'm gonna leave you." I assured her.

"Those idiotic, soulless vampires are sooooo gonna pay for what they did to you, Bella. I don't care if I didn't even know you back then, they hurt you and now they are gonna have ME to deal with!!!" Whisper-shouted Bailey. She looked as if she was about to run over to where they were and kill them then and there, so I quickly garbed her and made her stay in one place.

" Bailey, don't hurt them" I told her strictly, giving her one of my 'listen-to-me-if-you-want-to-go-home-in-one-piece' look as well as shooting a glance at Teo and Andrea to make sure they understood that what I was saying also went for them. Andrea pouted slightly and then turned around and headed to Mathieu's classroom. I sighed and followed reluctantly, scared of what else would be in that classroom, apart from Mathieu.

When I got there, Andrea was already sitting on Mathieu's lap, talking animatedly with Mathieu and our other friends, all the while shooting small glares at the Cullens. I could tell they had already noticed her and were doing their best to ignore her and her glares (which they had no idea what were about). As Bailey, Teo and I walked in to go talk to our friends, all of their heads shot towards us in one big movement, I could see from the corner of my eye, and their eyes widened to the size of saucers. I saw Edward dash forward but get held back by Emmett, who was looking at me with a shocked look. The three of us ignored them and went over to Andrea, Mathieu and the others.

"Look at Mathieu's hair! It's grown since the last time I saw him!" Shouted Andrea gleefully as she fingered her boyfriend's hair lovingly. It was true his curly, blonde hair had grown a bit and was now almost to his shoulders. It suited him well this way and made his bleu eyes stand out. He was a good-looking boy; he had a nice build, long legs and strong arms. Andrea and him were just perfect for each other and it was really obvious that they were madly in love. As I listened to Andrea go on about his hair, my thoughts drifted to the past and the person who was standing just meters away from me.

I can't believe he is standing in the same room as me, after so many years! I thought and hoped to never see him again! Now my wishes are ruined. All the memories are crashing back into my mind! Ahhhhh! It's his fault I'm a vampire, it's his fault I live the way I do now. All I wanted after he left was to live a normal life and because of him and Victoria, I'm stuck being a vampire for the rest of eternity!

Remember Bella that is what you wanted. You got your wish in the end, you may not have gotten it the way you wanted it or the way you wanted it, but you got it and there's no turning back now.

I sighed as I had an internal discussion and left the classroom as the bell rang, signaling the start of class.

Andrea's POV

I watched as Bella left the class as the bell rang and was soon up and following her, but not before I had given Mathieu a small peck on the lips. As I sat in class listening to the Spanish teacher drone on about what was expected of us this year, my thoughts wondered:

How could they just show up like that! Of all the countries in the world they could have chosen to move to, they just HAD to move to France, to Maisons Laffitte and come to La Nation. I don't know what this is gonna do to Bella, I could tell that it was really bothering her that they were all staring at her during break. I bet you the first chance they get they're gonna pounce on her and interrogate her! Poor her! I will help her though; I am her best friend after all. As well, if anyone of them, even looks at her in the wrong way, they are ALL going down. They need to pay for what they did! If I had my way they would already be dead, but Bella said not to do anything and since I love her so much I will listen. Even though I hate them. And I don't hate people easily.

Soon the bell had rung and the History teacher was walking into class, asking us if we had a good holiday. We all answered with a series of yeses and nods and soon she was telling us about all the interesting history we were gonna be learning this year. My hand shot up, as if of it's own accord and I asked:

"Will we be going on any field trips this year, to any historical sites near by?" I was actually really curious, history fascinated me. Mrs. Lecours, smiled at me and answered:

"Yes we will most probably be going to visit some of the 'Chateaux de la Loire' since that is the time period we will be studying this year."

I smiled at her and tuned her out for the rest of the lesson going back to my thoughts and before I knew it the bell had rung, signaling the start of our one and a half hour lunch break. I stood up, grabbing my homemade lunch and headed out the door after taking a hold of Bella's arm and leading her to the cafeteria, where we would meat up with the others. Once we were in the cafeteria we went to our usual table, a large round table, where all of our little group of friends could sit, while the people who were going to eat cafeteria food went into the line up. Bailey and Teo were already sitting in their seats. As I sat back in my seat, looking over the cafeteria, my eyes landed on the Cullens, who were standing about 20 people ahead of Mathieu and the others in the canteen line up. Bella who was on my left was chatting quietly with Bailey as Teo read a book on something or other. Soon I had joined in to the conversation between Bailey and Bella and was commenting about how we needed to do something EXCITING soon or I was gonna combust of boredom. Since I was so engrossed in the chat, I didn't hear the vampire coming up behind me and slide into the chair next to mine until he had wrapped his arm around my shoulders and leaned into me, whispering:

" Hello, gorgeous, you interested in hooking up sometime, it would be fun shagging you for the rest of eternity."
