Falling In Love Chapter 2
Hey guys! Ready for chapter two? I promise this one is more interesting than the last!
I don't own Twilight.
Renesmee POV
I woke up a bit early today to get ready for school. Yes, this is my very first day of high school, going alone. I'm so nervous. What on earth am I going to wear? I feel a wave of reassurance from my uncle Jasper and my door opens and my aunts walked in.
"Need some help?" Aunt Alice asks.
"Yes! I'm freaking out! What if they don't like me? What if I make a fool of myself? What if-"
"Darling, they're going to love you," mom says from the doorway.
"And besides, it's never too late to change your mind," dad says, now standing beside her.
"No, I'm going to do this," I say firmly.
"Okay, now let's find the perfect outfit," Aunt Alice says before walking decisively into my walk-in closet.
"Alice, please, you've had the outfit picked out for weeks," Aunt Rose says.
"Okay fine, I did," she rummages through my closet and hands me some clothes. "Oh and get the blue scarf we bought yesterday!"
After I change, I curl my hair a bit and put on a little make up before standing in front of the mirror, making sure I look okay. I hear a knock on my door.
"Come in," I say.
"Hey Nessie... Wow you look beautiful," Jake says. I blush a little.
"Thanks."
"Now let's go downstairs and eat, I'm starving." I laugh.
"You're always hungry."
After eating, I make my way to my car and just before getting in, my parents decide to take a few pictures of me. Jacob gives me a tight hug.
"I'll see you later." I smile in return.
"Now remember, if anyone gives you any trouble, just tell me and we will take care of it," dad says. I roll my eyes.
"Bye dad."
"I hope you have a great day," mom says.
"Thanks, I'll see you all later, I love you!"
And I get in my car and drive off. Finding the school is easy. I even found a map to the school and a map of the school online. I chuckle a little and set the papers down, take a deep breath and get out of my car… which already brings some attention and a lot of people are looking my way. I grab my bag and head off towards the office to get my schedule. When I'm inside, the secretary gets me all set up and sends me to the principal's office, where he gives me the rundown of the school rules and such, and then gives me a tour of the school before escorting me to my first class.
"If you have any problems Renesmee, don't hesitate to ask. Welcome to our school," the principal says.
"Thank you sir," I reply politely.
I look at the door to my classroom and take a deep breath. I can do this, I think to myself, it's no different than going to school with my family. I take a step forward, walking into the class and heading towards the teacher.
"Hello, I'm Renesmee Cullen, I'm new to your class."
"Oh well welcome, you can just have a seat over there, next to Brad," she replies. I look over to where she is pointing and see a very cute boy waiving his hand in the direction of an empty seat. He has short styled brown hair and looks pretty much like your stereotype prep. I thank the teacher and go over and take a seat next to the boy.
"Hi, I'm Brad," he says.
"Hi, I'm Renesmee," I reply.
"Renesmee?" He says, struggling a bit. I laugh.
"Don't worry, lots of people have trouble with it."
"Can I call you Ren?"
"Sure."
"Sweet, so where are you from?"
"Chicago."
"Cool."
"Alright class let's begin," the teacher says.
Class is extremely dull. I've already learned all of this but I take all the necessary notes, and engage in the class as much as I can. Even though it's not important, I still want a good grade. When class is over, I gather my things.
"Hey Ren, so what's your next class?" Brad asks.
"Social Justice," I reply.
"Do you want me to show you where it is?"
"That would be great, thanks, this school is huge!"
"Okay, right this way," He points to his right and starts to lead the way. It isn't far from the other class.
"Well this is it..."
"Thanks Brad," I reply. I'm just about to go in when he stops me.
"Would you like to eat lunch with me and my friends?" He asks.
"Sure I'd love to," I say.
"Great I'll meet you here after class."
This class is interesting and goes by quickly, and before I know it, the bell for lunch rings. I walk out of class and just like Brad had promised, he is waiting for me right outside the door.
"Hey Ren, how was class?" He asks.
"It was good," I reply.
He smiles and then leads me through the crowded hallways to the cafeteria. We get our lunch and we sit with his friends. He introduces me to all of them, and everyone seems to be quite nice. He seems to be in the popular crowd, which is a little unlike me since one: I don't like to be the centre of attention and two, I don't like getting too close to people since we move so much. I prefer to be alone, but I occasionally make some friends. At first, everyone is polite and asks questions, but eventually they move on to a different topic. When the end of lunch bell rings, I stand up to leave and throw out my leftovers.
"So Ren, what do you think?" Brad asks, joining me.
"Everyone seemed nice... I'm just not used to big groups... I usually prefer to be alone..."
"You don't seem like someone who likes to be alone..." I shrug.
"So what's your next class?"
"Chemistry."
"Okay follow me," he leads me through the crowded hallways to my class, we bid our goodbyes and I walk into the classroom. Like my other two classes, this one is easy. I take notes and watch the clock go by as I wait for this class to end. When the bell rings, I get up and leave, finding Brad waiting for me like before and he leads me to my next class, English. I introduce myself and sit down next to a girl.
"Um hey, I'm Holly," she says. She looks normal, different from the girls I spent my lunch with.
"Hi I'm Renesmee, I'm new here," I repliy.
"Renesmee? Wow, I have never heard anyone named that before."
"I was named after both of my grandmothers."
"Really? That's actually pretty cool."
"Thanks, I guess."
"Okay class, turn to page twenty five of your textbooks," the teacher says. Today is only team work. Holly and I work pretty well together and at the end, we have some spare time to chat and get to know each other. I have a good feeling about her. Better than the girls I met at lunch; I hate fake friends. When the bell rings, dismissing us from school, Holly and I leave class together and say our goodbyes when I se Brad.
"Hey," he greets me.
"Hey," I reply.
"So how was your first day here?"
"It was good."
"Cool... Do you mind if I walk you to your car?"
"No, not all."
We talk some more as we leave the building and when we get to my car, Brad freezes.
"Oh my god. This is your car?!" Brad asks in disbelief.
"Uh, yeah... It was a birthday present."
"Your family must be loaded!"
"Something like that.."
"Sorry that was rude..." He says, blushing lightly. "It's just, this car..."
"It's fine," I say.
"Well I'll see you tomorrow then..."
"Yeah, see you tomorrow." I gave him a small smile and get in my car.
When I get home, I see my family eagerly waiting for me. I grab my bag and head inside.
"So how was your first day?" Mom asks eagerly.
"It was good," I reply.
"Did you make any new friends?" Grandma asks.
"Yeah," I reply. My father and aunt eye me suspiciously.
I give them an innocent smile and walk over to Jake.
"Hey you," he says.
"Hey," I reply and give him a hug.
"Get lots of homework?" He asks.
"Just a few papers I need to get signed, you?"
"Nessie, please, I have giant stacks of papers I need to get done within the year. I have homework for an eternity."
"Did you at least get some done today?"
"...no... But I will tomorrow."
"Jake," I whine, "you can't procrastinate. Let's do some assignments together and then we can hang out." He sighs.
"Okay."
A few hours and some assignments done and over with, I help him set up a schedule to help him stay on track with his work.
"There. Tomorrow, I expect you to do your work while I'm at school," I say. Jake grins.
"I promise."
"Good, now let's go do something else!" We end up on the couch watching TV while Jake snacks on food.
After a while, I feel my eyelids go heavy and fall asleep. The next thing I know I am in my bed.
"Jake?" I mumble.
"I'm right here, Nessie," he says, "you fell asleep, I was just taking you to bed."
"Good night Jake," I whisper.
"Good night Nessie," he replies before kissing my forehead. I drift back to sleep.
I hope you guys liked it and don't forget to leave a review!
