Summary: Edward left Bella. Eight months later, the Cullen's return. But to their surprise things weren't like they were. Shy old klutzy Bella is now Izzy; emo, overconvident, co-ordinated, and popular.
(A/N: Izzy IS Bella. Its the same person)

1: Welcome Home, Where Nothing is the Same.
IPoV

School. Joy. I pulled on my black tank and sighed. I left my hair down and slightly curly. My dark skinny jeans rode low on my hips, and my stilettoes added two extra inches to my own 5"4. I lined my eyes with black eyeliner and brushed mascara onto my lashes. Then I surrounded my eyes with glitter. I frowned at myself in the mirror. I was actually going to school on the first day. Shame on me. I'd never done that, except when I was a five year old going to kindergarden in pretty little sundresses with pigtails on the side on my head tied with pretty pink ribbons. I grabbed my pink t-shirt that I had slashed across the front and put it on. Excellent. Since Charlie had died of a heart attack months ago, I never had any problems. He'd left me a shitload of money (I did miss him. More than anything in this world).

I got into my new car. This car was my baby. It was an Audi A5/S5,. It was black and glossy. I loved it like nothing else. I grabbed a peice of gum from my bag on the passeger seat. When I got to school, people looked at my car in surprise. They knew I never came on the first day. I glared at them all, looking angry and depressed like a good little emo. My wrists showed signs of the abuse they'd suffered, but that didn't matter. As I walked through the parking lot to the school, I saw something I didn't think I'd ever see again.

A sliver volvo.

The Cullens were all standing around it, looking the same as they always had. I saw Rosalie's eyes fly open in shock when she saw me, and they all turned to look at me. Surprise was the dominant emotion on al of their faces. I smirked at them, receiving a glower from Rosalie.

"Izzy!" I turned my head at the sound of my name. I saw Angela walking up to me.

Angela was one of the few girls I talked to. The rest, like Jessica and Lauren, were all way to preppy for me. After I'd told them to piss the hell off, they mostly left me alone.

I almost smiled at Angela. She knew what I was getting at and didn't press it. I liked that about her. "Whats up?" I asked her.

"Nothing. You saw the Cullen's, eh? Looks like their surprised by you." She told me.

"The Cullens can go shove it up their asses. As long as they leave me alone, I'm fine." I stated.

"Oh, Izzy, does that mean Edward's up for grabs?" Lauren's unpleasent voice asked. I turned to look at her.

"Sure. You can grab Edward wherever you want, Lauren." I told her. Angela guffawed next to me, and Lauren glared before skipping off to meet the Cullens.

I sat in my desk in biology, my eyes closed and my hair covering my eyes. Class hadn't started yet, and people were just starting to come in. When mister Banner walked in, I'd seen his look for shock because he was seeing me at school on the first day. Oh, boy was he in for a treat. Izzy Swan actually coming to class.

"Mister Banner." A soft voice said. Oh great. Thats just PERFECT. Edward gets to be in my biology. AGAIN.

"Edward Cullen. It's good to have you back." Mister Banner said. I snorted, and many people turned to look at me. The rest of the kids where laughing, Banner was disapproving, and Edward was appoletic. "You can sit with Izzy." Mister Banner told Edward. Me so happy. Me have funn... Me want to stab someone. I smiled to myself, not letting anyone else see.

"Hi." Edward's voice said as he sat. I didn't look at him. "My name is Edward Cullen. Look, I've been looking for someone, and I can't seem to find her. Her name is Bella Swan. Do you know where I might find her?" He asked hopefully.

Sad. He didn't even regognize me. Now I could really mess with him. I guess I was wrong this morning. Maybe the Cullens were just surprised to see someone new.

"In hell." I snapped, looking at him for the first time. My face wouldn't help his memory, with the glitter and makeup.

"What?" He looked surprised.

"Look since you decided to be polite and introduce yourself, so will I." I stuck out my hand, and watched in amusement as he drew back, seeing and smelling the open cuts on my wirst. He wasn't breathing. He looked at me, his eyes confused and pained.

"I'm sorry. I have a cold. I don't want to make you sick." He looked at my hand meaningfully.

Again, I snorted. "Anyway, My name is Isabella Swan. Izzy, if you will." I mock bowed my head, and when I looked back at him, my smirk was full of mockery.

His eyes flew open with shock. "Bella?" He asked.

Just then, Mr. Banner called on my for an answer. "Ms. Swan! One characteristic of living organisms please!" He said impatiently.

"Well, humans have the ability to shove their foot up someone's ass, sir." I smirked at him. Edward gasped softly beside me.

"MS SWAN! I'VE TOLD YOU TO BEHAVE PROPERLY. PRINCIPLES OFFICE, NOW!" Mr. Banner barked.

"SIR YES SIR!" I stood at attention. "I WILL LEAVE THE CLASS SIR. NO GARANTIES THAT I WILL SHOW UP AT THE PRINCIPLES OFFICE SIR. GOOD BYE SIR!" I mocked. As I left, I heard Edward ask if he could go to the washroom, and Mr. Banner say yes.

"Bella!" He caught up to me. "What's gotten into you, love?" He placed his finger under my chin.

I saw Mike leaving his own class. He and I had gotten it on more than once. No strings. Just good old make out and sex.

Without answering Edward, I walked over to Mike. "Hey, Mike!" I called. He turned to look at me. Then his eyes lit up. We didn't talk. If we ever went to see each other, it was a 99% chance that we wanted sex.

We started making out right there in the hall, just like always. Mike lips were tilted in a smile at the edges, and his hands roamed under my shirt and my bra. I pressed agaisnt him, encouraging.

"I was just going to come and find you." He said. When we stopped. He had the same smirk as me on his face.

"My house?" I asked. "I haven't made my bed yet, and I just bought some new...almost clothes." I grinned. Mike grinned as well.

"Excellent." He said.

As Mike and I walked off, I felt Edward's horrified stare following us. I turned and gave him the finger before going to my Audi.
