It took me the rest of the night to search for the right materials for my walls online - they would arrive in one week. I had decided to leave furniture to last as I still didn't know what I was going to add onto my walls and the colours may clash.
When I saw the black sky turn to navy then white I grumpily headed into my bathroom. I washed with ease and became refreshed again as the smell of lemon invaded my nose. I next walked into my walk in wardrobe where Alice had put in my uniform. I looked through the hangers to see that the uniform was a white shirt, a black blazer with a logo on (a yellow phoenix) and black trousers or a skirt.
I moaned as I dreamt of wearing my jumper that Seth had given me and a pair of jeans. I sighed in disbelief of British school rules and picked out a shirt that was baggy, a blazer that was shorter than the rest so you could see the end of the white shirt when it was on and a black skirt, the skirt had two white lines going down the front and flowed out each time I turned. I wasn't sure if I was meant to wear it due to the white lines and it wasn't with the rest of my uniform but I shrugged and went into a draw to find a pair of tights that had bows going up the seams. I also picked out my black laced-up combat boots and a purple rucksack. I next walked back into my bathroom to add make-up. I wore: red lipstick, black eyeliner and mascara, I blow dried my hair and put in a number of messy plaits, I then grabbed a number of hair grips to put it at the top of my head so it was out of my way.
I looked at myself in my mirror and smirked. "Don't I look fourteen," I scoffed with sarcasm. I walked out of my room and knocked on Jasper and Alice's door. I needed Alice's help if I was going to blend in.
"I love your hair!" Alice shouted at the top of her voice as she looked over my appearance. She was also dressed in the school uniform but wore dark black tights with a knee length skirt and black dolly shoes that made a 'click' on the floor each time she walked gracefully. I also realized that she was wearing a mustard colour tie with light blue stripes; I was not wearing one of those!
"Thanks but I don't exactly look fourteen have you got any jewellery to spike my outfit up?" I gestured up and down my body with my hands to show her.
She tilted her head in thought and after a while her eyes lit up, she dragged me in the bedroom where I saw my Dad sitting cross legged on the bed as he did his own tie, this was not looking good! I hated ties and especially mustard colour ones! I shoved the thought of wearing the thing out of my head and waved at Jasper, he greeted me back and started to put black dress shoes on.
"I have these," Alice excitedly shirked as she came back out of her own wardrobe. "Look at them, they are so cute!" She continued to shout while dangling a necklace and a couple of bracelets in front of my face.
The necklace had a small cat on "hello Kitty, Alice really?" I scoffed in disbelief. She knew that I wouldn't wear it as it was too girly. I hated school!
She grumbled as me, "Fine but you're wearing these bracelets!" She grabbed my right wrist and pulled them over my hand. They were all made up of some type of elastic and held a row of bright and colourful plastic beads of all different shapes. They were actually pretty cool. I told her thanks and headed back to my room where I sat on my balcony in self-pity of having to wear uniform.
Ten minutes later I was called downstairs and being told that it was time to leave. I grabbed my purple rucksack on the way out of my room and plodded down the stairs slowly, I was first greeted by Renesmee who was jumping on the spot as she was eager to leave. I grumbled a 'morning' and everyone replied by laughing at me. I rolled my eyes at them in annoyance!
"Come on little niece, school isn't that bad." Emmett swung his heavy arms over my shoulder and squeezed me into his side. I pushed away from him so he went stumbling a few times before he caught his footing and I quickly check my hair to make sure it was still in place.
"You have completely changed the uniform," Edward scolded me, which made everyone else look up and down at me. The girls smiled at my changes while Carlisle, Edward and Jasper looked at me sternly to try and make me change. Jacob and Emmett didn't care as they both wrestled each other out of the door.
"And?" I asked them sarcastically. "If I can't get away with it on my first day I never will and what is the point in that?" I raised my eyebrows in question.
"At least wear the tie," Carlisle passed me the mustard looking thing which made me shiver at the sight of it. "I don't want to be called out for bad parenting in the first week." He laughed at his own joke.
I stared at the tie with hatred and hoped to burn a hole in it with my laser vision but the problem was - I didn't have laser vision like a superhero! Maybe I could use my powers? I beamed a smile at the thought.
"Don't even think about it Ella." Edward spoke to me sternly while snatching the tie from my hands in a haste.
"It was a cool thought!" I pocked my tongue out of my mouth. He couldn't help but chuckled as I sent him more fantasies of what I could do with the horrible looking thing.
"These are your bus passes, your safe to run through the forest as the bus stop is just at the other side of it. I will take Renesmee and Jacob and anyone else who doesn't want to run." Esme smiled at her 'adopted' children in kindness while handing out plastic cards. She was also excited like Renesmee to watch us all go to one of our many first days at a new school.
We said our byes before heading out into the forest where we ran for ten minutes until we reached the end of the forest. There were two other teenage girls there waiting as we walked at a humans speed to the metal poll in the ground. They chatted excitedly about what they had done in the holidays and only stopped to gawk at the Cullen men. Renesmee and Jacob just arrived hand in hand as the bus headed towards us.
We stepped onto the bus where the gossip completely stopped and we all took separate seats as most of the space was already full by sleepy teenagers. Why did each vampire always have this reaction at school? I know that there were so many of us but still! When we went out it wasn't half as bad as this, the quietness ended as people gossiped in hisses with their partners.
I had managed to find a seat at the back with no one next to me and I was grateful for that. I closed my eyes in dread of the day to come but things brightened up when I heard most of my family talk in a supernatural whisper so only vampires and wolves could hear.
"Anybody want to play a little game?" I heard Emmett challenge.
"Not again Emmett," Alice laughed as she saw the future.
"What you thinking brother?" Jasper eagerly asked.
Emmett made a clicking noise in the back of his throat as he thought.
"How about the one to make the humans think that you're completely crazy gets whatever they want for a month?" I joined in. I knew I could win this!
Everyone chuckled lightly after they all agreed.
"Two months," My Dad looked at me with raised eyebrows to challenge me. "The winner gets what they want for two months."
I nodded with everyone else.
"Do we have a time limit to make them think that we are crazy?" Jacob asked.
"We have until Friday and no one is allowed to use their powers." Emmett popped excitedly.
"I cannot believe you guys are doing this! Carlisle is not going to be pleased." Rosalie hissed.
"I'm with Rose," Bella shuck her head.
"I'll just watch." Alice giggled.
"I don't want to do it either; this is my first time at school." Renesmee's innocent voice filled my ears and I couldn't help but 'aw'.
"So it's just me and the boys?" I chuckled at how easy this was going to be.
The men looked at their soul mates that paused to think but then encouraged them to take up the bet.
"Yes…" They coursed together.
"Excellent," I smirked at each of them in turn. "We start in our first classroom of the day."
The rest of the journey to the school was less eventful, the stares didn't die down but I was just about getting used to them.
I sighed as the bus entered the school parking lot. It was full of teacher's cars. The building was brown brick and had four storeys. Everything was exactly the same compared to America although it was weird to see people in uniform for a change. I grumbled as we all got off the bus and Edward was standing their waiting for me next to Bella with the mustard tie in his hands. I snatched it off him and slung it over my neck without doing it up. They couldn't force me to wear it, well I hoped they couldn't.
Who do you think will win the bet and why?
