Hello! I'm Melissa. I decided to write a fanfic for Twilight because I am in love with all the books and Edward! This is my first fanfic for this book and my first time writing in point of view. I normally write in third person. I hope you guys' like it! Review and comment please!
Summary: Bella starts going to school at Forks High School and meets some pretty unusual people. She starts to adapt but can't wrap her mind around Edward. He is sending her mixed signals and it confuses her. Will she like him or will there be some problems? Or both? All Human! All Cullen's will be in here.
Chapter 1
Bella's POV
I decided to move in with my dad Charlie. I never really wanted to live in a boring, small town like Forks, but I decided to after all.
My mother would never kick me out, but I knew it would be easier on her if I did. She married a Minor League Basketball player and that required some traveling and my mother was put in the situation to stay home with me or go with her husband. To make it easier on her I moved in with my father.
I never really thought of myself as a special or exciting person. I mean to begin with I am not very attractive; I have brown boring hair that I never know what to do with, my eyes match my hair and apparently tell everyone how I feel, and my body is as normal as any other average girl. I don't have the beautiful blonde hair or the stunning blue eyes so my appearance is very bland. On the inside it's almost the same.
I'm nice to people but I don't really put myself out there. I'm the girl in the back of the class who knows the stuff but is too shy to answer the questions, I'm too shy to talk to people I don't really know and so I just shuffle along and try not to trip on stuff. That's another thing, I am clumsy. I can find any way to hurt myself by clumsiness. I also have never had a boyfriend.
I thought moving would be good. I could start over and help my dad. I know he can't cook so I can do that for him. Those are the good things. The bad things I didn't think about when it involved moving was that I was going to have to start over at school. I know no one in Forks except my dad's friend's son, but he doesn't even go to my high school. I'm not going to know anyone and that is enough to make me regret moving just a bit.
"Hey Bells, ready for your first day?" Charlie asked me excited; more excited then me I must add.
"Uh, sure dad." I said while moving around the kitchen while preparing my cereal. I wasn't in the mood to cook or eat anything really, I was too nervous.
I don't really care what people think of me but I also don't want them to stare at me like people always do to the new students. Like it isn't enough to start out in a new school, they have to stare at me too!
"Well, have a good day and meet some people. I promise you'll like the kids, their real nice." My dad said while getting on his work gear. "Have a good day Bells." He said strapping on his gun belt.
"You too dad." I responded with a smile before he left the house.
After eating and getting the rest of my stuff together I headed out to my truck. My dad surprised me on my first day home with a nice, antique, Chevy truck. It was red and he got it from his old pal, Billy. I loved it, and was excited to use it for the first time.
I got in and fastened my seat belt before turning the key and heard the roar of the engine. The loudness took me by surprise but I quickly adjusted, found a decent radio station and headed to school.
Pulling into the parking lot I realized two things. First, I was early. No one was really here. Second, the few cars that were here were nicer and better then my truck. I didn't really care; I mean I love my truck no matter what.
Since I had a few minutes to spare I got out and went to the registration building to get my class schedule.
I opened my truck door and stepped out into the slight chilly air. It was windy, but so far no rain. The sun hardly shines here, which is so unfamiliar to me. I quickly walked through the parking lot and made my way to the building.
I walked in and noticed the desk with two ladies behind it; one was busy helping another student so I went to the other.
"Hello, it's my first day here and I need my schedule." I said politely.
"Oh, hello. You must be Isabella Swan?" she asked me.
"Uh, Bella. But yes I am." I answered with a smile.
"Here you go sweetie. Have your teachers sign this slip and bring it back to me this afternoon. Enjoy your first day!" She told me cheerfully as I left with a thank you and another smile.
I walked back through the parking lot and noticed more students were arriving. I went to my truck and noticed a few people standing around it. They weren't really standing by my truck but by their own cars that were parked near my car. I quickly noticed that their cars were much nicer then mine. There was a girl with short, brown hair with a pixie cut standing around a silver Volvo with a boy that looked similar to her. I assumed they were siblings since they had almost the same color hair and eyes. I took in the guy's appearance. He had brown, short hair that stuck up in different ways but still looked flattering. He had golden brown eyes that were so captivating it was hard to look away. I quickly looked away before anyone noticed and looked at the others standing around, blocking my entrance to my truck.
The other three people were standing around a red BMW Convertible. There was one girl who stood out, she had fair skin, stunning eyes and her golden hair shimmered off her shoulders. She was beautiful and very intimidating. I think noticed the guy practically glued to her hip, he was strongly built, had dark hair and was attractive, but not as mesmerizing as the other guy. Then there was another guy who looked to be the blonde's sibling. He had dirty blond hair that went in every direction and he resembled her.
I continued to walk and once I got to my car to get my school stuff I realized that they were standing in my way.
"Excuse me." I said politely. The brown haired girl and brown haired guy were the only ones in my way. The girl moved politely but the guy wouldn't budge and he was standing right in front of my door.
"Excuse me." I said again, this time with more urgency. I was known for getting annoyed with people easily.
He still didn't move.
"Excuse me!" I said louder this time. He turned to me and just looked at me then my truck.
"Is this yours?" he asked, as if it were some piece of trash.
"Yes, this is my truck, and I need in it. You are standing in the way." I told him, annoyed.
"Oh, well. How fast does it go?" he asked, still not moving.
"Why does it matter? Just move." I responded. I was not the girl to talk cars to; I didn't understand it and I didn't really want to.
"I will once you tell me how fast your junk moves." He said leaning up against my truck and folding his arms across his chest. I realized his friends had left him and it was just him and I now. I looked up into his eyes and saw that he was not backing down. Well I wasn't going to give in so I decided to go around my truck.
I crawled in on the other side and grabbed my bag. I looked up and saw Edward standing on the other side of the driver's door. He looked at me with a smirk. He was amused by me, I could tell. I didn't care though. I was pissed at him. I got out of the truck and slammed the door behind me. I then continued to walk into school.
I heard foot steps behind me and then felt the presence of someone next to me. It was him.
"You're new here, right?" he asked.
I didn't want to answer him, but felt the need to.
"Yes." I answered curtly.
"I'm Edward. Edward Cullen." He told me with a smile, holding his hand out and stopping to shake my hand. I ignored it and kept walking. Not wanting to talk to him.
One minute he's a total ass hole and the next he is trying to be nice and introduce himself. I wasn't buying it.
"And your name?" he asked, catching up to me.
I didn't answer. Just kept walking. I finally found my locker and stopped there.
"Did I do something wrong?" he asked.
"How bout you just don't talk?" I asked annoyed by him still. I opened my locker and placed a few of my things in there then slammed the door shut and made my way to class, luckily he did not follow me.
I walked into class and gave the teacher the slip of paper to sign. Luckily he didn't introduce me and also I was lucky to not have so many people in there yet.
I settled in the seat he told me was empty and took out a notebook, ready to take notes.
I was doodling some pictures when I felt someone sit next to me. I turned and saw Edward Cullen sitting there, smiling at me.
"Hello again." He told me.

What did you think of it so far? I wanted to make the first chapter kinda short because I didn't want too much to be in the first chapter. I am also going to try to write in Edward's point of view. Also, let me know how you think I did on capturing Bella's point of view. If I screwed it up let me know, because then I will either need to improve or just not write the story.
Feed back please!!
Who went and saw the movie today?
If you did, what did you think of it? I love talking about movies, especially Twilight!!!
Have a good day!
