The First and Last Memories

~Chapter 2~

I walked away from my locker towards my next class.  ''Ah Miss Swan. Welcome. Your pass, Yes. This is your stuff and I've a seat for you next to Mr. Hale'' the teacher says. I walk towards my seat and see the Jasper Hale sitting. Yes, the one who I protected against Jessica's rudeness without even knowing him and his family. '''Hi, I'm Jasper Hale'' He says as I sit down. ''Melany Swan'' I say and shake his hand that he offered. The lesson begins as we are talking about the Civil War. ''Miss Swan can you tell us about the Civil War?'' the teacher asks. ''The American Civil War was a four-year conflict from 1861 to 1865 in the United States between the Northern States or the Northerners and the Southern States or the Southerners. Bloody battles and campaigns took place in many states. The war began with an attack by the Confederacy on Fort Sumter on April 12, 1861. The Battle of Bull Run on July 21, 1861 was the first major battle. The war was effectively over after the surrender of General Robert E. Lee after the Battle of Appomattox in early April 1865. The final battle was fought on May 13, 1865, at Palmito Ranch, Texas. In June, the South surrendered and the Union won. An estimated 695,027 people were killed and 543,926 injured'' I answer. ''Wrong. The first attack wasn't on Fort Sumter by the Confederacy'' He says. ''I bet you there's nothing wrong with my information'' I say. ''Someone look it up please'' the teacher says almost desperatly. ''You're right. I read it in a book'' Jasper says to me. ''The war began with an attack by the Confederacy on Fort Sumter on April 12, 1861'' A kid says to the teacher. The teacher looks in shock towards me as I smirk back. ''Alright, when was President Lincoln murded''. ''On April 14, 1865, Abraham Lincoln, the 16th president of the United States, was assassinated by well-known stage actor John Wilkes Booth, while attending the play Our American Cousin at Ford's Theatre in Washington, D.C. Shot in the head as he watched the play'' I answer. ''Alright'' the teacher says and gives up. ''Open your book on page 43''. ''You quit know a lot about history'' Jasper says. ''I love history. I keep reading in books about them. I find it intresting especially the stories about the Civil War'', ''I also love the Civil War'' He says. Jasper and I were talking the whole history lesson. At the end he and I compared our timetables. ''Here. My number. Maybe we can switch books sometime'' I say and give him a note with my number. ''That would be lovely Ma'am'' He says in his southern accent. I caught his accent through the history lesson and I loved it. 

Bella texted me to meet her at the office. So we can hand our passes in. When I get there I saw Edward Cullen almost begging to switch out of biology. ''Fine, then I just have to endure'' He says frustrated and walks away. ''Do I smell?'' asks Bella. ''No, why?'' I ask. ''Cause, Edward acted really weird. Coverd his nose and almost runned away when class was over'' Bella says. ''No Bells, you don't smell. Just because he's a dick doesn't mean anything is wrong with you'' I say. ''Thanks Mel'' she says. We both hand in our slips and passes. ''Bells, I've to go to my locker. I've forgot something'' I say and begin to run to my locker without  waiting on her answer. I wasn't looking where I was going. It felt like I runned in a wall. I almost fell on the ground when two arms shot around my waist to keep me up. I looked to the person who I walked in to. ''I'm sorry'' I say and see Emmet Cullen. ''I wasn't looking where I was going''. ''It's okay, princess. I'm just glad you didn't fall'' he says. I blush because of the nickname he gave me. ''Your the new girl right?'' He asks. ''Yeah, I'm Melany Swan'' I say. ''Emmet Cullen'' he says as he kisses my hand. He let's go of my like everything in his body wanted to keep me in his arms. ''I've to get to my locker. I forgot something and my niece and uncle are waiting on me'' I say. ''I will walk with you. It's the least I can do after we bumped in to eachother'' He says. Together we walk towards my locker. ''aren't you the one who wasn't in class to day?'' I ask. ''What class? he asks. ''Euhm English and Biology'' I answer. ''Ow yeah, I wasn't feeling well'' He answers vaguely. We keep on talking to eachother till I was back at my car. ''You've got a nice ride'' he says. ''Thanks, I got it from my dad'' I say smiling. ''Her, my number. Maybe we can keep in contact. You should also come and sit with us at lunch'' he says. ''I would love to'' I say ''Bye, Emmet''. I drive my car towards the diner where Bella and I met up with uncle Charlie.
