I don't anything to do with the Twilight Saga, it belongs to Stephanie Meyer. Please do not sue me.

.:Chapter Ten - Confrontation:.
The next day after I'd forced myself to take painkillers for my bruised side, everything seemed to move like a blur, but everything slowed as I finally took my seat quietly in Music. Bella was seated beside me, in front of us was Angela and Jessica. I slumped slightly as the teacher finished doing the register.
"Now, I hear we have a new singer in the room" the teacher says.
I breath in as I slump down in my chair, trying my best to hide under the desk. I swat down into a crouch, and turn to face Bella, and just in time to see her suddenly freeze.
"Miss. Swan, where's your class mate" the teacher asks.
"Which one?" Bella asks, her cheeks instantly turn red from been cheeky.
I curse under my breath as my chair is pulled away and my teachers head suddenly appears there. I wave slightly as my teacher steps back and begins to tap her inexpensive heels; seriously I owned better. 'Get back on track Lace' I tell myself. I then slowly climb out from under the desk, only to have the teacher grab my arm and begin to drag me towards the front.
I instantly grab her hand and force it off my arm. I scowl at the teacher as she turns to face me, her face filled with shock.
"How dare you touch me like that young lady" she tells me.
I breath in as I step closer and say "NO! How dare you touch me like that! I am not a child, or a piece of meat that you can man handle. If you ever touch me again like that, or treat me like I'm a lower class citizen, or just simple disrespect me, I will sue you, and believe me, I have the money far a DAMN good lawyer".
The teacher stares in shock at me, after a few minutes of staring open mouthed at me, she says "Ok. Can you at least please sing for myself and the class".
"No! You can't force me to do something I don't want to. I know my rights in the class room" I tell her.
I then turn and head back to my seat. I spent the rest of he lesson quietly, not wanting to be both seen or heard.
I took a breath as I sat quietly talking with Bella at a free lunch table, though I knew I wasn't really paying her any attention, just like I knew she wasn't paying me any. No, instead our eyes were drawn to the far off table that housed the Cullen's and the Hale's.
I sighed when I noticed that Jasper and the 'pixie', who I'd learnt was called Alice Cullen, weren't holding hands, sure they were sitting next to each other, but it wasn't like it was yesterday. I looked down suddenly when I saw Jasper's eyes looking straight towards me.
"You know, I should turn gay... I mean no guys ever gonna want me" I say out loud, trying my best to start a conversation.
"What makes you say that?" Bella asks as she looks round at me.
I look up with a sigh as I say "I don't really know. I mean take Jasper Hale for example, he's handsome, rich, and everything I'm not. How could a guy like that want a girl like me".
Bella smiles slightly as she says "Plenty of guys want you, sure they won't all be as gorgeous, but... this is gonna be so cheesy... the right guy is right around the corner".
"Your right that was cheesy" I tell her with a warm smile.
Bella laughs slightly as she nods.
I sigh as I then say "Thanks though,.. but its just that, I have this 'gut' feeling that I'm supposed to be with him... And I know I'll probably sound like a soppy romantic,.. but I wouldn't say it, if I didn't know it was true".
Bella smiles as she says "Then I think you should talk to him".
"And say what, 'Hi, I'm Lace, and I think were soul mates'. As much as I would love to say that to him, I can barely say 'Hello'. I'll buzz you when that happens though... Plus, isn't he dating Little Miss Fine Ass" I say.
Bella shrugs as she says "I think so... Do you maybe think its a family thing, you know, they look so good that you just can't speak. God knows I can't, not with out trouble".
I laugh slightly as I say "Maybe we should start a club".
Bella laughs as she hears this. I looked back towards the far table that housed the Cullen's and Hale's, only to find Jasper was still looking straight at me. I shivered slightly as goose bumps began to coat my arms and my gut tied itself into a knot; there was that feeling again, that feeling that he was some how... mine.
I was glad when Bella changed the subject, and we sat talking quietly, occasionally exchanging a laugh, until the bell went off, and then I dragged myself to my next class; art.
It was my second lesson of art, and I was kinda looking forward to it. Bella had to sit next to Mike, but their table was next to the one I was sat at, and me, I got to sit next to Jessica.
I dealt though, and focused my mind on the project that the teacher had set; a free style art piece based on skin stylizing. We had to design an animal and then give it different styles of animal skin. I'd gone with the design of a large white lion.
The fur around the large head of the animal was more exaggerated, but I couldn't help having an over active imagination. The eyes where wide and black, the kind that invited you in even though you knew you could die, the paws where seated in front of the beast, the nails showing and digging into the ground; I'd made the ground appear on purpose.
After dealing with the constant winging from Jessica for another 20 or so minutes, the bell finally sounded and I packed my things with deliberate care, after all I was an artist who took pride I what I did.
I sighed slightly in pain as I throw my bag over my shoulder and then headed towards the school exit, after all I didn't do gym.
I sighed as I realised Bella was day dreaming when I said good bye at the gym door. I then turned with a sigh as I waked slowly towards the school exit, and lucky for my the halls were partly empty.
A harsh shiver ran down my spine as I pushed the door open and the cold wind hit my face and neck. I breathed in and then let it go as I shoved my hands deep in my pockets. I then steadily walked down the steps, and then walked across the parking lot towards the road exit.
I looked down when I noticed the five sets of topaz eyes that stared at me. I sighed in relief when those five eyes became four; Edward had finally turned and was opening his car door.
I walked straight past them all, not once looking up to stare at them. I stopped though about 10 feet away from them, and turned swiftly back to face them. All their eyes now turned away from me.
I sighed quietly as I turned fully and walked straight towards them. I stopped a few feet in front of the group, and instantly all their eyes turned to face me.
"I don't like the way you treat me Mr. Hale" I spoke loud and clear.
I tried my best to stare the tall male in front of me down, but it was shocked slightly when I realised that for some reason I was talking in my mother tongue, something that I hadn't done since I was seven.
"Umm..." was his only reply, though his eyes where filled with shock and horror.
"You don't know me enough to judge me. So if the fact is that you don't like me, then I ask that you keep that to yourself, other wise I will be forced to ask the reason why. I won't allow you to treat me wrongfully".
I breathed out as I nod quickly and then turned and walked off. I roll my eyes when I hear the sound of closing doors and then a car been started. I looked round when I felt a gust of wind wrap round my body. I continued to walk as I watched the car that Jasper sat in disappear just as quick as it had moved past me.
A/N - I know i haven't put any up for a long while and i am sorry about that, i just had major writers block and then my computer wouldn't connect to the internet so i had to use my Dad's laptop.
Any way, i hope you guys like this chap, so please please review. :)
