Chapter Two

Bella's POV

The days seemed to pass in a blur until with a start my alarm clock rang.

Monday Morning

I groan. These last few nights have been terrible. I can't seem to tune out the incessant rainfall, making it impossible for me to get a good night's sleep.

I mechanically dressed and gathered my things for school.

"I don't know how I'm going to survive here" I whispered to the empty house.

Charlie leaves for work ever morning before I wake up. At least don't have to worry about sharing the bathroom in the morning.

As I walked out the door I reached for the key under the eve to lock it back.

"Bella." Said a soft voice behind me.

I gasped, whirling around to face the statuesque blonde girl.

"Hi, I'm Rosalie Hale" She smiled warmly.

She was pale, very pale, with long blonde hair that flowed to the middle of her back, and bright gold eyes to match her hair. I just stared at her openmouthed.

"I... I'm Bella, but you already knew that, umm, how uhhh, how are you?"

She smiled and chuckled lowly. "I'm fine thank you. My father is a friend of your fathers', and Charlie had mentioned how you don't have any friends here in Forks so I came to let you know that you have one now..." She trailed off, seeming unsure.

"Oh, wow, umm, thank you." I looked around. No car, I noted with satisfaction. Maybe Forks isn't so bad after all.

"Would you like to ride to school with me Rosalie?" I asked.

"Can I?" She asked, seeming excited at the prospect.

"Sure Rosalie." I smiled. I think we're going to be really good friends.

"Please just call me Rose." She said casually, as I led her around to the garage, digging my keys out of my purse I pressed the button to open the automatic garage door.

Rose whistled. "That is one nice car, how much did you pay for that?" She appraised the car appreciatively.

"Didn't, It was a gift, of sorts..." I trailed off, grinning wickedly and Rose started to laugh uncontrollably, her bell-like laughter seeming to echo off the trees.

"You're funny." she snickered.

"Thanks a lot." I replied sourly.

She stopped, watching me carefully, as if she didn't understand my sudden change in mood. "I was serious Rose, though that was a total 'lol' moment." I chuckled.

"We have to go Bella, before we're late to school."

I sped to school, just to make sure we weren't late, besides, I like to drive fast.

We got to school with plenty of time to spare, and we were greeted by her siblings.

"Bella, this is my adopted brother Edward my foster sister Alice, and my boyfriend Emmett, unfortunately my twin brother Jasper won't be joining us today." She motioned to each of the people in front of me. Every single one of them were as perfect and as beautiful as Rose.

"Hi" I responded timidly. I'm normally not shy, but wow, their just wow.

Rose's Boyfriend, Emmett, was huge, not only was he tall but he was muscled like a hardcore weightlifter. He had dark curly hair and dark eyes to match. Funny, they looked almost golden, like Rosalie's. He smiled widely showing a set of perfect dimples. He's probably trying to make me feel welcome.

"Hey Bella" He boomed in a deep voice. "We've heard so much about you." He added in a quieter tone.

I was afraid, or rather, more cautious. "How much?" I said flatly, making my face a blank mask.

My loss of emotion seemed to register with Emmett, but he still grinned. "More than you want to know." He replied cryptically.

"Emmett, leave her alone." Edward warned him, teeth slightly bared.

"I can fight my own battles thank you very much." I told him tersely.

Emmett and Rose laughed in unison, they seemed to both have perfect bell like laughter. "I like this one Rosie, Can we keep her?" He asked quietly.

"I can hear you!" I said in a sing song voice.

I heard gasps. "How can..." Alice trailed off in amazement.

"There's a lot you vamps don't know about me, so just sit back and enjoy the scenery." I smirked.

Edward looked torn, he probably wanted to rip my head off or something gross like that. Vampires, I'll never understand them...

Alice chuckled lowly. "She's not human."

"Bout time Alice, don't cha think? Amazing, you were such a powerful one, back in your day, but you don't even recognize what I am."

"I'm so sorry, I hadn't recognized you, it's been so long." She looked down to the ground, and assumed a submissive pose.

She was terrified of me. Not all the stories about me had been exaggerated, I spent a long time in the south, and my time there wasn't wasted, especially not my time with Maria. I'm almost as feared as the legendary God of War, the Major, and I'm not even a vampire yet. I grinned smugly.

"Thank you for your time, now I must be going. It was a pleasure to meet all of you, especially you Rose."

I walked away from them, swaying my hips slightly, each and every one of them stared after me, eyes open wide in shock. This was most definitely going to be a fun school year.
