School.

The world alone strikes fear into the hearts of many teens, to me it was just another day. I am one of the few who actually go there for more than just gossip and parties and anything else normal teens go there for. I actually attend so I can one day come back as an English teacher, hopefully younger children, I can barely stand teenagers now, let alone in the future.

I am not popular. Far from it. To be popular you have to actually be more than a speck on their radar. Im not ugly, at least I dont think so. I could be to them, but its not like I actually listen to the ramblings that come out of their mouth. My hair is brown, my mother the artist says its a beautiful mahogany, I just think it looks like the normal brown that comes in the box of basic crayons. My eyes again brown, sometimes i wish for a unique color like maybe blue or green. green..the color of his eyes. NO! stop Bella! You're NOT allowed to think about him. Now back to why I'm not popular, I'm skinny, with barely anything under the shirt, I would make a 12 year old boy jealous. My "mahogany" colored hair falls down to the middle of my back in a mess of waves. The attractive popular girls of today have it straight or in a stylish 'bob'. I wear converse and not that cho guys shoes. Heels? Lets be honest, that's never going to happen. I don't wear short skirts that barely cover my ass, those belong to Tanya "the slut" Denali.

Ah Tanya, The queen of the bitches. She thinks that everyone is just her loyal subjects to bow down to her. She is everything I'm not, and has everything I want. A beautiful new Mercedes, beautiful expensive clothes, and of course she has the one thing I would give up everything for, Edward.

Edward is the best of the best around here. He is perfect, from his beautiful emerald eyes, to his messy bronze hair. He was tall and skinny, but muscular at the same time. He had the perfect swimmer body, Michael Phelps would kill to have it. He had a smile with the perfect white teeth that would light up a whole room. Edward wasn't a player, but he wasn't exactly Prince Charming either. He was your typical high school asshole, only a lot more beautiful than those actors in the cliché Hollywood movies. He looked right past you if you weren't beautiful or apart of his 'in-crowd'.

And I was so hopelessly in love with him.

It all started last year, the whole school new about me, I was the new girl in town. Most thought I would be the new 'It' girl like Hollywood makes us out to be. The one everyone wants to walk to class and wore tight jeans and designer sunglasses, even inside. Everyone's hopes of course were crushed when I came in, plain boring Isabella Swan. I didn't wear designer clothing, or anything tight and showed off skin. My dad was the police chief for Christ sakes. He would have me wear a winter coat in the middle of summer if he could have pulled it off. So there I was in my converses and hoodie. I did make friends with the next group down from the infamous Denali/Cullen/Hale group. They were upper middle class I guess. Angela, Mike, Jessica, Ben, Tyler, and sometimes Lauren, they were my group. We went out to the movies and went swimming in the filthy lake. Life was great with them, and I couldn't has for more out of Forks than that group. That was until Edward Cullen looked my way.

It was during class one day. Biology was never my favorite subject, but I wanted to excel so I could attend Dartmouth and then later become an English teacher. Edward Cullen sat down beside me and gave me a polite smile. I immediately felt weak in the knees and knew it was love at first sight. He leaned over and asked me quietly for a pencil and I was able to breathe in his beautiful scent, It smelled like the best scents all rolled into one. A few I could pick out were honey, milk, and fresh laundry. I practically drooled and had to look like an idiot, and instead of answering I just gave him a pencil and mumbled an 'ok'.

A year has passed and not another interaction with him. Of course being partners in biology meant we had to do basic labs, but nothing other than that. He was with Ms. Perfect, why would he even look at me?

I was walking into lunch with Angela when Alice Cullen stopped us to have a word with Angela. "Do you have the notes from Geometry today? I was writing a list of things I needed to pick up at the mall, and totally didn't even think about writing everything down. Now we have a test on Friday over the material, and I have nothing to study!" Alice gave her best pout, and even though we weren't of the male species we still fell for it. "Of course, I will just make an extra copy for you and bring it to you at the end of the day", Angela barely got out, apparently Edward wasn't the only Cullen able to 'dazzle' people.

We all made a joke that 'The Cullens' were able to get away with everything through their dazzling powers. They were just able to get away with too much stuff, it was insane and unrealistic. The Cullens consisted of Emmett, Alice, and Edward Cullen. Emmett was the oldest of the group, a senior . He was huge, and towered over most of the upperclassman. He had brown curly hair and the cutest dimples that could probably help get him out of murder. Alice and Edward were twins, and juniors. They were each others exact opposite. Alice was short, with spikey black hair and blue eyes like Emmett. She was bubbly and funny, she got along with everyone, and everyone loved her. Edward was a different story, all the girls wanted him, and most of the guys wanted to murder his ass for dating the hottest piece in the school.

They were usually with "The Hales". A set of twins who were beautiful too. Alice and Jasper were dating each other and very serious. Emmett was always flirting with Rosalie, but she didn't show him any attention other than friendship. She was a dick tease all the way. Her main reason for being at the table, besides Jasper, was Tanya. She was her partner in crime with 'the bitches' . Tanya the strawberry blonde devil. I would love nothing more than to light that shit on fire, but I know that's just the jealousy talking.

Angela and I made our way back to the table only to be stopped again by none other than Emmett Cullen. Except, unlike Alice, he was looking directly at me and not Angela. Angela of course took pity on me, she knew I hated to talk . "Hello Emmett! Is there anything I can do for you today?". He didn't even look at Angela once while he responded "Yes! I was just wondering if Bella would be able to attend our party with me. It will be a great time, and of course everyone else is invited also. I just wanted to take Bella out on a date". To say I was shocked would be an understatement. Why on earth would Emmett Cullen want to hang out with me? Let alone a date!? "What do you say Bella?" I was brought out of my internal conversation by Emmett's hopeful voice. Could I go on a date with the brother of the man I was in love with? Its not like Edward was waiting for me, so why not? "Id be glad to attend it with you Emmett, Just let me know what time would be best for our date beforehand" I quickly grabbed a pen out of the spiral of my notebook and scribbled my number down on a piece of paper. "This is my number, give me a call" I gave it to him with a small smile, and turned around with a bouncing Angela.

"What the hell was that?? I had no idea that Emmett Cullen and you were talking, this is crazy!! When did it happen???" Angela was rambling on and on about our supposed meeting before this one, "Angela! Calm down. I've never spoken to him once before! Why on earth would he want to date me??" I was seriously baffled, and looked up into the curious eyes of Ms. Angela Weber. "Isabella Swan, you don't see yourself clearly do you?" I shook my head 'no' and she continued " You are beautiful, and down to earth. You are just as gorgeous as Tanya Denali but without the bitchy ass attitude." She was insane. That had to be it. I figured I would take pity on her and just agree, "Oh, Okay. I guess." I just shrugged my shoulders and kept walking to our table. Well, this weekend should be interesting.
