Previously on Disturbia:
"yes sir, I am deeply sorry" I said as I removed myself from Edwards lap and scooted back into my own seat.
The ceremony passed without a hitch. I received my awards , as did Edward and we walked out of the room holding hands. It was as if nothing had changed, as if the time when Edward hated me didn't exist, I was ecstatic, and by the feel of it, so was Edward.

Walking out of the hall, I could feel all the stares on Edward and I.
It was no doubt that what we had just encountered appeared to be quite the spectacle, but to stare was just plain rude.
"Mr Cullen, Miss Swan, could I please see you in my office?" the principle said passing us and motioning for us to follow.
I was nervous to say the least, I knew that what we had just done would never have been forgotten in phoenix, but I guess I hoped that here in forks, the school system worked a bit differently, there punishment and discipline system is what I refer to.
The walk over to the school office was… bearable, at best, though I knew that it was only because of the large, soft warm hand that was resting I my own.
Edward seemed to give me strength, as cheesy as that sounds, it was 100% true, no need for lying here.
I had missed him terribly, and the fact that he was so accustomed to me already, made me positively giddy.
On the walk down the corridor towards the principles office, we happened to pass, Alice, Rosalie, Jasper and Emmett, all surrounding a locker. They had a mischievous smile of each of there faces, and I couldn't help but ponder on whose locker they were terrorizing.
This only seemd to take up some of the time tht we were walking towads the principles office, it was really actually very scary, when what was silly was that the most he would be able to do was give us a few detentions, well that seems like all he should do, anything worse would be cruel, wouldn't it?
I could feel Edward tensing up, he was just as nervous as I was, though the stares were making it worse, there was no denying it.
I guess we were something to be talked about in a way, Edward had showed such hate towards me the last couple of days, and it was becoming quite hostile between us.
I knew that it was obvious our immediate friendship, and my sudden acceptance into such an elite group of friends that other s only wished that they could walk near and not feel their self esteem dropping.
I knew I was lucky, though when edward and I had been less than friendly with each other,, there were more than roumours going around.
That is how it started out, rumours, then it became the whispering and then there was the sneering and the glaring. Though I was not blind, I could tell that edward was getting the long end of the stick and I the short.
I seemed to be the only on that could have done something wrong.
The rumours consisted of, me cheating on him, me coming on to him, me being pregnant, me using him , me, me, me. I was surprised at how people had automatically presumed that it was the result of something sexual between us, when we had not even been official when we 'broke up'.
It was staggering at how observant the average teenaged girl really was.
Though this walk was painful, it was obvious that we were not alone in our angst.
There was one couple, Ben and Angela. Angela was in my English class and had befriended me just recently.
Her and her boyfriend Ben would have to be the most pure and selfless people, and I was honoured to have them considered as friends.
They were standing by bens locker which was only a few feet away from the principles office, and there anxious smiles of encouragement and friendship were the last things we saw before we entered.
When we arrived in the office, the principle was already seated behind his desk and he motioned for us to take a seat.
I took a seat and Edward did the same, while letting go of my hand. I suddenly felt empty without my skin in contact with his, though I did not say anything due to the fact this was not the time nor the place.
I looked up at the principle and he began.
"by the look on your face miss swan it appears to me that you are indeed very nervous about the grounds on which this meeting has occurred?"
I nodded my head.
"by my guess, it seems you think that this meeting has something to do with you and Mr Cullen's actions in the ceremony this morning." I nodded again shooting a quick worried glance at Edward.
He chuckled a little and continued.
"don't worry miss swan, I was a teenager once too, and I suppose what happened in the hall is not 100% accountable on you. There was a little trip involved and as I hear you have quite the reputation fro falling miss swan." I nodded again, a blush arising on my cheeks.
"so as I cannot place the full blame on anybody but what I see as fate, you two are not being punished, though this is not the reason as why I have called you two here."
Edward and I let out a large breath at the same time, and I smiled up at the principle.
He chuckled slightly and continued on.
"I was wondering, as you two seem so close and are great role models for the student body, if you were willing to run the annual car wash fund raiser. Miss swan you are new to the school and I think this would be a great way for you to get involved in the school community, and Mr Cullen, you are greatly respected by the students, I have no doubt that you two would make a great team, as long as you can keep your sexual relationship, to out of school, I don't think we will have any problems."
The principle had a smug look on his face for the last part and I couldn't help but blush yet another deeper red.
"Sir, I think I speak for both Bella and I, when I say that we would be very happy to help out with the fundraiser and that you can count us in.
The returning grin on the principles face, after edward had said that was large and very happy.
"great Mr Cullen, this is very good news , though as much as I hate tp regret this I have some bad as well."
The shock on my face must have been clear, though I was always the one to think the worst.
"oh miss swan it is nothing extremely bad, don't look so frightened, it is just that well…" he seemed to stall a little, and looked a little guilty.
"well… I seem to have lost the documents on this years fundraiser, and this means that you would have to start from scratch." he said this looking down, and I could tell that he was slightly ashamed with himself.
"oh sir, that is no big deal" I said laughing to myself.
"this only means that everything is bound to run more smoothly with us having control from the get go, there is likely to be no confusion."
I said this smiling in his direction and he seemed happy about my answer.
"well thank you miss Swan and Mr Cullen, I know you will do our school proud, and I am quite thrilled to have the two of you working on this, now if you wouldn't mind as to leave and get to class, I apologise for wasting your class time."
And with that we were out of the office and off to Biology.
