Chapter 3
First day on college:
(Month after chap 2)
Alice POV
First day of college finally, Edward and I would start a new stage in our lives.
I loved my brother very much; I wished that he found a girl that fall in love with him and that she would love him putting aside his incapacity.
We were on our way to college, James our personal driver took us.
On august mom bought Edward a guide dog which was trained to fit Edward's needs; Edward and I have been interacting with him, and he's used to us, plus he follows Edward's directions and commands.
The dog knew Edward's route for class…that was really cool. His name is mike, and he's a golden retriever and he also had green eyes like Edward he was the cutest dog I've ever seen.
I hope that Edward also made friends… that he came out of his shell. That's why I was in charge of his looks, and damn, he looked gorgeous today! I would date him if he wasn't my brother. Even though I don't remember the last time I crushed on a boy...wow! Long time ago... because I had dedicated my childhood and teen years to help mom with Edward.
The car came to a stop.
"Ms. and Mr. Mason here you go" James said.
He got off the car and opened my door, he took my hand and helped me out "thank you James" I said when he gave me my new college purse. I went to the other side and helped Edward with mike.
"Thanks sis" he said, "goodbye James. Be here to pick up Edward at 2:30, then pick me up at 4:00" I instructed James nodded.
James left, I grasped Edward's right forearm while he was guided by Mike. "Well Edward, today is a new beginning. Let's hope that is for the best." I said he sighed, "yes Alice…I hope so too" he said.
"Okay Edward, I'm going to accompany to your first class that starts in 15 minutes, is 8:45. Then we'll meet for lunch at 12:00; when you come out from your second class."
I said "you have your panic button right?" I asked, "yes mother" Edward said smiling. I punched him playfully.
"So Alice, can you tell me my surroundings?" he asked.
"Well…campus is big; it has grass all over, trees, students under trees, buildings. At your right there's a parking and at our left is the faculty parking…" I said.
I kept describing everything to Edward until we reached the building for his first class.
"You have your books?" I asked "yes" he said.
"Okay then goodbye, and good luck" I said opening the door, since the classroom was empty, I entered with him. I found him a seat.
"Your seat is at the third row from the door. You're seating on the third desk and as you can sense Mike is on your left. The principal or an administrator should come and tell the professor about you" I said he nodded "I'll call you between classes okay" I said to him.
"Yes Alice, leave now, you're going to be late" he told me "okay, okay bye" I said and left.
Edward's POV
First day of college finally; mom had given me a dog to guide me when Alice wasn't around, it was a golden retriever, and I've heard that they're very loyal dogs. We were on our way to school, I've hoped to learn, and meet new people…make some friends…maybe.
Alice had more opportunities than me, even though we looked alike, well I don't know how we looked anymore; Alice was 10 the last time I saw her, but I knew that a few things about her hadn't changed. She was still 5 feet high, she loved heels, she had green eyes, and fashion is her passion. Plus she is the best sister.
I knew she had cut her long black hair a few years ago on a rebel act…after a discussion she had with our mother.
The car stopped, Alice Mike and I got out.
Alice told me about my surroundings, I knew people where staring but Alice never told me that. We reached my first classroom; she found me a seat and indicated me the exact position.
She left.
A few minutes later other students arrived and the professor too, I was introduced and it was weird; good thing that some of my old classmates where there.
The class started and I paid attention, my computer recorded everything for me to print out later, it was a good thing that I wasn't the only blind guy in school, well actually I didn't knew that for sure… but in that particular class I was the only one, and in case you're asking is math class.
After that I went to music class that one went well at least. One hour and 30 minutes later I was waiting for Alice to go lunch.
"Oh my god Edward! College is so cool! I can't believe that today is only the first day" she told me.
"Yeah is amazing" I said.
She kept describing her day and professors trough lunch. I listened and replied every now and then. Then it was time for my next class, Alice had fashion theory and I had music & art appreciation.
We left to our classes, mike always by my side…
Bella's POV
My alarm woke me up, I got up and started my morning routine; the day was beautiful the sun shined warmly. I decided to wear a short skirt, a tank top; to top that a short sleeved plaid shirt, I grabbed my new schoolbag and new sun glasses. Mom was in the kitchen; my breakfast was on the table.
"Good morning sunshine" mom greeted; "hi" I said seating. I ate my breakfast while mom finished getting ready for work.
Mom worked on a publishing company downtown, the ride to school was good, we chatted, and listened to a CD that we both enjoyed.
The car stopped, "well honey, this is it" mom said "yeah" I replied of course I had a knot in my stomach.
"Everything will be fine; you're an intelligent girl Bella. I wanted you to know that I'm very proud of you" mom added, I nodded and hugged her.
I got out and walked in, as I tried to look and admire everything around me…before entering to class I called dad.
"Bella" dad greeted "hi" I said "are you in?" he asked. "Yes dad, and wow this place is enormous" I told him and he laughed. "well honey, I love you and good luck" dad said "thank you" I told him.
"Isabella…" dad said "yes?" I asked, "you have your pepper spray with you right?" dad asked.
"Yes chief" I responded.
"Well go to class then" he finished "love ya' bye" I said and hung up.
I entered in the classroom, there were just a few people in, and I chose a seat in the middle of the room. I sat and tried to relax, this was supposed to be a new stage on my life but to be honest I was scared as hell…
As the day went on, I relaxed and began to enjoy it; the campus was big but very comfortable. When my classes ended, it was time for work, I had applied for a job at the library, I entered went to the front desk they let me in, after Mrs. Cope gave me my name tag and showed me around I started on my shift…
Phil picked me up at 4:00pm sharp. "How was your first day?" he asked "terrifying but well in the end" I admitted he laughed.
We arrived home, I showered and started on some homework, and then I had dinner and watched a movie with mom. After that I went to bed, tomorrow was a new day…
The day that started it all.
