Hello once again, everyone, to a wonderful new chapter of High School Never Ends, A Remake!
I hope none of you are mad at me for redoing this story, but as I had said in the previous chapter, the original version of HSNE will still be up and posted and everything, so if you don't like this one, you can still know that the old one is still there on my profile.
Recap of Chapter ONE:
~The girls have finally arrived on FSA, and already met the notorious trio of one of the many players on campus. And, each has sworn off player men. Now, how will the girls deal with facing players during their classes? Will new secrets be discovered during the day?~
Don't worry though; many of the characters will most likely not be replaced, for each of them holds a key part in their roles for Reality of Our Lives, and so, the Remake will also have old characters and key events that also affect the group in the sequel. Such as Joshua and James – now those two will definitely need to stay in the remake, for I have a huge twist for Reality of Our Lives… ;)
But, now is not the time to be talking about that story; must stay focused on this one. XD
I'll at least tell you this – this Remake will be more musical-ish since really, I envisioned the story to go with them singing a lot of songs in here. Sounds like something already? Let me tell you – sounds like High School Musical for some reason? XD
Don't worry; I most likely will not place musical/broadway songs here in the story, because really, I mostly listened to somewhat modern and usual-everyday music while I typed up the first version of HSNE.
Now, I'm rambling. Let's begin already. XD
Chapter TWO
Bella's POV
I felt as if someone was shaking my bed, causing me to bounce and jostle in my sleep slightly. "Bella! Wake up!" A high-pitched voice squealed loudly from above me, where I winced from the noise. "Alice… can't I sleep in?" I whined, trying to curl up and disappear from the ball of energy who still hasn't stopped jumping above me.
"No, Bella. It's the first day of school already, and we need to get ready." Rosalie's voice sounded off somewhere behind Alice. Groaning again, I sat up in my bed. I yawned and stretched after Alice had hopped off my bed finally, and saw that she and Rosalie were already dressed.
Alice wore a black and white ruffled tank top of sorts with a black lace shrug over it. She also wore a grey short skirt with a black belt looped through the belt loops, along with wearing black and white high heel shoes that had little black bows on the top of the shoes. She also had a black butterfly ring and black earrings to go with her outfit.
Rosalie wore a colored navy blue that was close to a black, shirt with white skinny jeans while also wearing black ankle lace up boots to go with it. She had a black bracelet and a dark purple – again close to a black – ring.
Alice dragged me out of my cozy bed, while Rosalie did the same thing with Angela, and there, they had us shower before they made us get dressed in the outfits that they chose for us. Angela's out was a grey sweater with white jeans and knit, white UGG boots. She had a cashmere, sequined scarf around her neck, and she had a black elegant looking ring on her finger.
Alice's outfit for me was a grey sweater with a black and grey striped scarf, with black skinny jeans. My outfit also had black knit UGG boots that came a bit past my ankles, while I wore a black heart shaped necklace, along with oval shaped ring, where the gem was dark purple, closely resembling black.
"Alice? Why are we wearing various shades of black?" Angela asked Alice when we reached the first floor of our dorms. "Because, it represents elegance and class, which is something the guys lack in." Alice explained, smirking at her answer. We laughed at her statement, agreeing. If these boys were going to be players, we'll be making sure they won't get to us.
We stepped outside of the dorms, to see some of the girls, along with mostly boys, were awake and dressed for the first day of classes. We began walking towards the main building of the school, ignoring some of the gawking stares from the boys. Some who were too cocky began cat calling us, but we ignored them.
We walked past the rows of lockers in the hallway and saw that the main office was just around the corner. Just as we got to the door and Rosalie was about to open the door, another pale hand shot out to open it as well. We looked up before glaring; it was Jasper, Edward and Emmett. Jasper was dressed in a white button down shirt with dark jeans and black sneakers. Emmett was dressed in a dark grey sweater that fit too snuggly around his huge build, along with black jeans and black sneakers.
Once again, Edward was dressed perfectly. He wore a black shirt that also fit perfectly over his chiseled chest, with fitting black jeans and black boots. Each had a black wristband/sweat band thing. Edward looked over in my direction and once again, smiled that cocky grin of his. I glared back at him, feeling that I just wanted to kick him where it hurts, just to see that little smile disappear.
"Hello again, ladies." Edward greeted us in a silky smooth, velvety voice, probably trying to woo us with his charm already. In response, we backed away and huffed, crossing our arms over our chests. Jasper and Emmett were looking in Alice's and Rosalie's direction with a cocky grin that couldn't match Edward's exactly – Ah! What am I thinking?! Do not say that all dreamily! These three are huge players and you need to stay away from them so you won't get hurt again!
"So, what brings you four to the main office?" Emmett asked, smirking Rosalie's way. "We were here to collect our schedules, thank you very much." Alice answered for Rosalie, glaring at her adoptive brother's face. "What a coincidence, so are we!" Jasper exclaimed with exaggerated excitement. I rolled my eyes, saying, "Yeah, sure."
We glared at one another, seeing who would go in first. Finally, Rosalie grabbed the door forcefully and wrenched it open – thus hitting her brother who was standing behind the door, in the face. "Ow!" Jasper yelped, clutching his face in two hands, stumbling backwards. Alice, Angela and I snickered at his pain, before we followed into the office after Rosalie.
Soon afterwards, after we got our schedules, we walked outside to see that the trio was still there, with Jasper still clutching his nose. "Ow, shit…" Jasper cursed. "Ah, ah, ah, Jasper! Remember what dad said about cursing?" Rosalie taunted, wagging her finger disapprovingly in her brother's direction; us girls again giggled and snickered.
"I have good enough reason to curse, Rose. You fucking slammed the door into my nose! What the hell?!" Jasper hissed at his sister, removing his hands so we could see his bright red nose. "Let's just say that that sign means we're not falling for your ways." Rosalie clarified, sneering at the boys while she, along with us following shortly after, crossed our arms over our chests like earlier.
"What ever do you mean, Rosie?" Emmett asked innocently, before he snickered, Edward snickering as well. "It means that we're not falling for you damn player ways." I answered for Rosalie, snarling slightly. Edward's smirk now turned into a full-blown grin after I snarled slightly.
"How can you think we're players, ladies?" Edward asked back innocently like his brother, pouting. "One, you're boys. Two, your hormones are bound to be raging. And finally, I know this since I've found playboy bunny magazines underneath your bed back home." Alice answered smugly, watching Edward's and Emmett's horrified faces with satisfaction.
"Now, just leave us alone for the rest of the school year, and we won't have problems." Rosalie stated menacingly, before she began strutting away, with Alice mirroring her. Angela and I didn't bother doing that, since we didn't have the same hips or curves like Rosalie – or even Alice.
"You ladies won't be able to stay away from us! We can promise you that!" Emmett shouted from behind us, earning some stares from both boys and girls that were filling the hallways. "I doubt it!" I yelled back, laughing at their attempts in still trying to get us.
---
"Okay, one…" Alice began. "Two…" Rosalie added. "Three!" we all shouted at the same time, flipping over our schedules. "Let's compare, ladies." Rosalie said, with all of us pointing and looking at our schedules.

"Oh, yay! Bella, we have 2nd, 7th and 9th together!" Alice squealed happily, hugging me with one arm. "We have only have 1st and 9th together – along with 7th." Rosalie said glumly, but still hugged me. "I have 3rd, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th with you, Bella." Angela murmured, smiling in my direction. "Oh, duh, we also have 5th and 6th with you too, Bella." Alice added, smacking her forehead playfully.
"At least I won't be alone in my classes." I whispered, smiling at my friends. A shrill bell rang in the hallways, causing us to wince. We headed over to our lockers, just double checked our combinations, then went to our first classes with our bags – black of course – slung over our shoulders.
Rosalie and I found the Math classroom, and sat down where mostly all of the girls were sitting at. The boys sat at the other side of the classroom; among them were Edward and Emmett, who were winking and smirking in our direction. Our math teacher – Mr. Varner – came into the classroom, a stern look on his face. "Boys, stop sending goo-goo eyes in the girls' direction." He boomed at the boys who were looking our way, trying to flirt across the room. When they all got caught, us girls giggled and snickered at their way.
"I would like to say, welcome ladies to Forks Spartan Academy. I wish all of you a wonderful school year." Mr. Varner said, smiling slightly in the girls' direction. "We – that means the teachers, staff and I – will make sure that nothing will go wrong this year." He added, now glancing over at the boys.
After Mr. Varner's sincere speech, we got done to math business. He gave us times tables for reviews, and then handed us some worksheets with complicated looking math problems on them. When Mr. Varner wasn't looking, a note landed on my desk, slightly startling me. I opened it up,
Hello, angel. ;)
I looked up at the boy's side, knowing it was a boy, and saw that Edward was just gazing around the classroom, but would glance back at me with the note in my hands. And when he did, he would smile. Of course it's from him…
Quickly scrawling something back and tossing it over to him, I then went back to work. I had written:
Leave me alone, stalker. XP I told you, if you mess with me and my friends, then there'll be some problems.
I heard Edward chuckle quietly from my note, and a few minutes later, the note landed on my desk again.
Come on, Bella. I know you like me already.
Snarling slightly, I again scrawled down my reply and tossed it back to him.
No. I. Do. Not! Now, leave me alone, idiot.
I then went back to working just as Mr. Varner came walking over between our two desks – which were right across from each other, unfortunately. "Mr. Cullen, Ms. Swan. I see that you two are getting to know each other?" Mr. Varner asked us sternly, where we gained everyone's attention in the class.
"Mr. Varner, he was bothering me with writing a note to me." I told him, glaring in Edward's direction. "You still replied to it." Edward countered back smugly, grinning in my direction. "Both of you, lunch detention." Mr. Varner concluded, before he turned and went back to his desk. I stared at the back of his head with my mouth slightly opened, before I continued my glare at Edward. He only smirked back in my direction.
After class, Rosalie was at my side while Edward and I got our detention slips. "Thanks a lot, you pervert." I hissed to him when we left the classroom, before I stomped on his foot and then walked away with Rosalie. "Ow!" Edward yelled after I stomped on his foot, before he limped after Emmett.
"Nice foot stomp on him, Bells." Rosalie commented, giving me a high five. "Thanks, but now I have to suffer a lunch detention with that sick pervert." I told her, scrunching my face together. She nodded and sighed. "Why did you write back to him on the note though?" she asked. "I was trying to tell him to leave me alone." I told her honestly, sighing. "Should've known that that wouldn't work." I added, shaking my head.
Alice met up with us, and Rosalie went off to her 2nd period. The morning classes went by slowly, and now, it was lunch time. I went the other way instead of the cafeteria, where my friends said goodbye and good luck to me. "Thanks, I'm going to need that." I muttered to myself, heading towards Mr. Varner's classroom.
I waited outside Mr. Varner's classroom when I got here, and saw that Edward came sauntering out from the corner, his hands stuffed into his pockets. Unfortunately, Mr. Varner wasn't here yet, so we had to wait for him. "Hello Bella." Edward murmured when he reached me, smirking. I glared at him and looked the other way. "Aw, you're not going to say hi back?" Edward complained, sounding sad.
"Nope." I stated, still not looking in his direction.
Suddenly, I was pinned against the wall, with Edward holding me to it. He had my hands pinned above my head, while he had lifted his knees and made sure I didn't try escaping. I gasped and began panicking; this is just like last time… "Bella, come on. I want to get to know you." Edward breathed in my face, his head lowering towards my neck.
I whimpered when I felt him kiss my neck and began struggling. "Let me go." I whimpered, already feeling tears stream down my eyes. "Please Bella?" Edward asked sweetly, not removing his head from my neck. I sucked in a ragged breath, still feeling the saltiness of the tears running down my face. "I said, let me go." I stated shakily before I kneed him right where it hurts.
He backed off, holding his little pride and joy, doubling over in pain. I wiped off the traces of my tears, where Edward saw it and looked over at me confused. I glared at him and made sure I had my arms over my chest protectively. Now Edward was on top of my, "Kill Men" list.
"Mr. Cullen, will you please stand up?" Mr. Varner's voice appeared from my left; he was walking down the hall, two freshmen students behind who were carrying our lunches. Edward painfully stood up, trying to hide his winces from Mr. Varner, before he glared in my direction. Not my fault that I was trying to protect myself from him, when he tried to rape me…
We went inside his classroom and ate our food in silence. We finished just in time when the bell rang and we walked out of the classroom with Mr. Varner stating to us, "I better not catch you two passing notes in my classroom ever again."
I tried walking briskly away from Edward, trying to hide my stumbling in the process, but he was unfortunately faster than me and was able to keep pace with me. "Why were you crying in the halls, Bella?" Edward asked, looking down at me. "None of your business. Get away from me now." I growled, somewhat surprised from Edward's sincerity. What brought this on? Where was the cockiness? The teasing? Those little grins of his? Where was any of that?!
Pfft, as if Edward would really be this sincere with me! This is just some act that he's pulling on me, trying to get closer to me before he thinks he has a shot of dating me. Then he would use that to his advantage and break my heart. No way was I going to go down that road again…
"Bella?" Edward's questioning voice brought me out of my thoughts, making me look him in the eye. "What?" I asked back rudely, glaring and hoping he'll just leave me alone. "Come on. Back there, it was just a joke. I was just messing with you." Edward explained, stuffing his hands into his pockets. "To me it wasn't." I muttered under my breath, hoping that he won't hear me. "What?" Edward asked; damn, he's a good listener too.
"Nothing." I stated curtly, while I began to walk briskly again. He caught up easily – again.
"Bella…" he began, still trying to talk to me and acting sincere. "Enough. I don't want to talk to you, Edward." I snarled, where mentally I was swooning when I said his name. It was so beautiful to say it. He sighed and stayed silent. "Why are you following me anyway? Don't you have your own class to go to?" I asked him rudely, glaring slightly at him from the corner of my eye and already breaking my "I-don't-want-to-talk-to-you" rule.
"No… what class are you heading off to?" Edward asked, glancing at me fleetingly. "Biology." I stated and he nodded. "So am I." he replied back, looking away from me. Looks like there's no way of getting rid of him…
We walked the rest of the way to the biology lab in silence, and when we entered the classroom, we saw that all of the tables were taken, two seats per table. But, one table was empty. "Ah, Mr. Cullen and Ms. Swan; so nice of you to finally join us." The teacher said, glancing up at us when we entered. That means so did everyone else. I could see Angela sitting next to a boy with greasy looking black hair and pale skin like everyone else, and she looked frightened and scared stiff. I sent a sympathetic look over to her, where she smiled helplessly back.
"You two can sit up here." The teacher said, pointing to the remaining table that was up front. Edward and I gaped slightly at him, whereas the class snickered and chuckled in return. "Come on you two. No time for you two catch flies in those mouths. Let's move it." The teacher ordered, snapping us out of our faces and making us hurry to our seat. Edward sat on my right, scooting over while sending an apologetic look over to me. The reason why about the look was unknown to me.
The class passed by, with me knowing the Biology teacher's name which was Mr. Lysol – a pretty damn funny name if you ask me. After that class, it was time for the last period of the day. I entered the gym – far from Edward – and saw that Alice and Rosalie were waiting for us. Off on the other side of the gym, Jasper and Emmett were walking towards Edward when he entered – Edward still had that confused yet thoughtful look on his face.
"So, why were you late to Biology, Bella?" Angela asked me quietly, looking worried. "It's nothing. Edward wouldn't stop bothering me and I couldn't walk fast enough to escape him." I told her, somewhat telling the truth and lying at the same time.
Before I had my friends asking for deep details, the teacher – Coach Clapp I think; I just heard it from some boy in this class – came out and blew his whistle. "All of you, go get changed into your gym clothes." He boomed, sending all of you walking – more like running – to the locker rooms. We later came out in gym clothes; sweat pants and t-shirts. Alice had pulled up my hair in a messy ponytail, while she had done the same thing with Rosalie's and Angela's hair.
"Now, I'll be pairing all of you off with someone, and I'll tell you what you'll be doing for today. First off," he paused, flipping papers on his clipboard over. "Alice Cullen and Jasper Hale – you two will be doing punching bags. Same thing for Emmett Cullen and Rosalie Hale, and Edward Cullen and Bella Swan." He ordered. In that moment, all of us had began complaining, until he blew his whistle on us again. "No complaining about your partners. Now move!" he shouted. That sent all of us jogging to the punching bags.
The boys decided to be "nice" and let us girls punch the bag first while they would hold it. I put on some punching gloves that felt sweaty, and I began punching. After several minutes of silence and plenty of punches, Edward said, "Wow I didn't know you had this much anger in you."
I huffed, giving him that as my response. "What? You're not going to be nice and talk to me now, Bella?" Edward asked accusingly. "No." I stated, still punching like crazy; he was right though. I didn't know I had this much anger in me. "Come on, can't we just put this aside and try to talk to each other?" he asked pleadingly; another act I presumed. No way was I going to talk to this guy after what he did to me at lunch.
"No." I stated again. "Is that all you can say now?" he asked teasingly, with a slight strain of anger in there. "No, I just don't want to talk to you." I growled, giving him a full sentence finally. "At least that response is better than your earlier ones." He grumbled sighing and shaking his perfect head; there I go again!
"Just shut up, and leave me alone." I snarled back at him, still punching furiously. "Come on, Bella. What did I do that made you so mad?" he asked, peeking his head around the corner of the punching bag. "Lunch; the hallway. Ring any bells, Edward?" I asked him, sneering his name angrily. "I told you; that was just some teasing. I didn't know that that would get you all riled up like this." Edward explained, shrugging his shoulders; damn idiot. How dare he take this all nonchalantly?!
Screeching a quiet scream of fury, I punch, then karate kicked the bag – hard. The bag flew into Edward and the force knocked him down to his feet, groaning in pain. (That's three times that I've hurt him in one day. A new record for me.) I stomped over to him and growled, "Well, now you know." I then stomped away from him, heading towards the Girls' locker room. I heard Alice and Rosalie follow me after a few minutes, ignoring the quiet gossiping whispers of watchers who saw my little kick; thankfully, Coach Clapp was in his office and didn't see it.
I sat angrily on the bench, crossing my arms over my chest. Alice sat down beside me moments later, with Rosalie sitting on the other of me. "That was an awesome kick, Bella. I didn't know that you had the enough strength to knock him down." Alice commented happily, giving me a hug. I relaxed and laughed, returning the hug. Rosalie hugged me next, and then, she asked, "What got you so mad at him, Bells?"
I sighed and told them that I didn't want to talk about it here. I said that I wanted to tell them, along with Angela, why I was so mad at Edward. I might as well tell them why too; I just don't know if they'll understand me, or shun me. Only one way to find out, I guess.
And there's another chapter for you, my readers! :D
I know, I know; Edward already seems to be a future rapist. XD Well hey, he is after all a player and I needed something that'll get everyone – as in everyone, I mean hopefully the girls and I mean all of the girls at FSA – so mad at Edward.
I have a pretty cool idea, at least in my opinion, coming up eventually that wasn't particularly planned in the original version of HSNE. But hey, this is the REMAKE of it, and so I get to add it now. :D
So, what do you think of this story so far? Is it good?
Bella's little secret will be revealed in the next chapter and I promise, her story will seem more longer and then I'll get her virginity straight. XD By the way – Edward is a virgin still; hello? The school was all boys before the girls showed up. And so, that means that he hasn't had sex with anyone… not yet, at least. Mwuahahahahahahahahahaha! XD
*coughs* Anyways, please review if you liked the chapter. I'll be doing previews eventually for this story, which will most likely give more hints of future chapters.
And now, here's something new that I would like to try:
Questions! (These will just be personal questions that I would like to ask; you don't have to answer them if you don't want to that is.)
Okay, so here's the question:
~Do you have a crush on someone at your school?~
Once again, if you don't want to answer that question, then you don't have to. It's just something I would like to try out and see if any of you are comfortable with sharing some secrets. I can promise you that the answer will stay secret and no one will know. If you're fine with me telling someone a secret – not like a love/crush secret that is – and posting it in the chapter, then do tell me.
Bye for now,
~*Lady Lily of Darkness*~
(By the way: Bella's, Alice's, Rosalie's and Angela's "First Day of School" outfits are now posted onto my website.)
