Chapter 2- BPOV
"Alice, I'm never letting you drive me to school ever again!!" I complained as I clambered out of the vehicle. She grinned at me. "Hunny, you say that every day; yet you love me too much, and I need time to make sure that you wear something at least half way decent for school." She said. "Now come on!!! its the beginning of the end of this hell! we need to go show them who rules this school!!" she squealed, bouncing up and down before grabbing my hand and dragging me to the office to get our schedules. I reached back and grabbed Edward's hand to bring him along. For once though he didn't follow. I paused and looked back at him. He was stood watching a girl approach him. She was tall, leggy and blonde. She was pushing her chest forward to make her boobs look bigger. I immediately took a disliking to her. This intensified to pure hate as she sidled up to my Edward; 'not my Edward!' I mentally corrected myself. She slid her hand down his chest and put her lips to his ear. "Hey; I'm Tanya, I'm new here and I was wondering if a big, strong, handsome guy such as yourself could show me around here. Where to find the cafeteria, my classrooms..., maybe even a janitor's closet?" She purred winking at him. I rolled my eyes and almost gagged. Surely he wouldn't even acknowledge this..this..slut?? "Edward, are you coming?" I asked him. He shook his head as if to clear his head. "Huh? What? Oh.. Well, actually, I'm just going to show Tanya around. Can't have her getting lost on her first day..yeah..I'll see you later ok?" and with that they walked off leaving me there staring after him. WHAT THE HELL?!?! I slowly turned around and walked to where Alice stood chatting to Jasper. She looked up as I approached. She noticed the slightly confused and dejected look on my face. "What's up Bella? and where's that brother of mine? we'll be late for class. here's your schedule by the way" she said peering around for Edward. She handed my a neatly folded piece of paper. I unfolded it. She'd already taken the liberty of comparing everyone's schedules and noted who I had in each of my classes.
Miss Isabella Swan - locker 158 - combination: 13/09/21/07
1st period - History: Mr. Topliss, Room 3a (with Jasper)
2nd period - English: Mrs. Norton, Room 5b (with Rosalie and Me!)
Lunch (with everyone)
3rd period - Biology: Mr. Banner, Room 6c (with Edward)
4th period - Gym: Coach James Matthews (with Rosalie, Jasper and Emmett)
I smiled at her and thanked her. As it was the first day back everyone had first period free to get their schedules sorted and locate their lockers etc. Seems as we'd had the same lockers since our first year here and we'd customized our locker combos so we would always remember them (my combo was mine and Edwards' birthdays and his was the other way around) we decided to just drop off our bags and sit in the cafeteria. Alice, Jasper and I all headed to our lockers where we met Rosalie and Emmett, they were leaning on my locker making out; as usual. I cleared my throat to get their attention. They finally came up for air. Rosalie squealed and gave me a quick hello hug. Once she'd moved I braced myself for an 'Emmett Special' as he called them. He didn't disappoint. He gave me a huge squeeze and lifted me off the ground and spun me around. "Em-Emmett!! I Cant Breathe!!" I gasped. He finally relented and set me gently on the floor. Luckily, we'd all managed to arrange it so our lockers were together in a row nearest to the cafeteria. It went Alice, Jasper, Rosalie, Emmett, Me and then finally Edward. There was a spare locker on the end but no one ever bothered to use it so it remained empty for most of the year. As we put our bags in our lockers I felt a strange sense of loneliness. Usually aroundthis point Alice and Jasper would be talking, Rosalie and Emmett would be making-out and Edward and I would always be chatting about which teachers we hated or about a TV show we'd watched the previous night. I sighed, thankfully inaudibly, and shoved my bag in my locker before traipsing off to the cafeteria. I sat at our usual table, the one in the farthest corner, yet rather near the vending machines (come on, we were sat with Emmett! that guy never failed to amaze me with the amount of food he consumed.) Luckily I wasn't alone for long. The others all entered and sat around the table. Just as we began to engage in conversation a familiar voice caught my attention. My automatic reaction was to look for him. I glimpsed him at the other side of the room, just entering the other door. He was chatting to her...his voice carried over to us as it was still fairly empty. "This is the cafeteria. The food's actually ok, for a school.. say, would you like to sit with me and the others at lunch?" he asked her. My blood boiled. How dare he? we never invited anyone to our lunch table without asking the others first. I didn't have to be angry for much longer though as I heard her reply. "oh Eddie-kins. as much as I'd love to meet your friends; Rosalie, Alice, Jasper, Emmett and what was it? Beth? Betty? whatever.. I'd rather we'd sit alone together, if that's ok?" she asked with the most pathetic, soppy look on her face. For the second time that day I was almost reintroduced to my breakfast. I shifted my gaze back to the table top with a smile. He always sat with us at lunch, we'd all had lunch together since we became friends. There's no way he'd ditch us for that skank. "of course that's ok. the others wont miss me much" he replied. My head shot up to look at him once more. I was completely shocked. I watched as she slid her arm around his waist as he led her out the other door. Alice must have noticed my expression. "Bells? Are you ok? you look pale, well paler than usual" she said worriedly. I couldn't answer her. Luckily I was saved for the moment as the warning bell rang, signaling it was time for the next lesson. I knew however, I'd get a grilling via note in English from Alice and Rose. I jumped up and ran to my locker before grabbing my books and heading to English room 5b.
