     Annabeth finally finished her first day at Forks High School, and she was glad that it was over. She turned in her slip to the office and headed out to her car. She waited for Bella, since she wanted to make sure Bella didn't get lost on her way out of the school.

     While she was waiting on Bella, she felt eyes on her. She looked over and seen Rosalie and the rest to her family, looking over at her. Being the person she was, Anna smirked and lifted her hand, waving at Rosalie. She watched as Rosalie's fingers clenched into fists, as Emmett tried to calm her down.

     Moments later, Bella came out of the school and headed towards her truck. Anna could see the look on Bella's face, and she could tell that the girl was upset. Before Bella could climb into her truck and leave in a hurry, Anna stopped her.

"What's wrong?" Anna asked, crossing her arms.

"Do I smell bad?" Bella asked, making Anna frown.

"No," Anna raised an eyebrow,"Why? Did someone tell you that you did?"

"Not exactly," Bella murmured,"It's just — you know the Cullens?"

"Yeah," She smirked,"I know them."

"Edward was acting like I smelled bad in Bio," She replied,"He covered his nose and was sitting as far away from me as possible. He all but ran out of the room when the bell rang. I happened to go into the office when he was in there...he was trying to get his class switched to be away from me."

"That pale ass bitch," Anna spat,"I'll go talk to him right now--"

"No!" Bella exclaimed, grabbing her sister's arm,"Just let it go."

"Fine," She murmured,"only this once."

     Anna looked over at the Cullens, and seen Edward looking towards her. She glared and motioned with two of her fingers, letting him know she was watching him. She then smiled vindictively, and flipped him the bird, before she opened her car door and threw her bag inside.

"She's amazing." Emmett commented, as he laughed.

"She's a bitch." Rosalie grumbled, and Emmett grinned some more.

"She's important," Alice announced,"I haven't seen enough to know why, but she is."

"Great." Rosalie murmured, as she angrily turned to get into Emmett's jeep.

     Anna arrived at the house a couple of minutes after Bella. She sighed in relief the moment she pulled into her driveway. She headed inside almost immediately, and went straight up to her room. She was exhausted, but that was something to be expected, considering she had just arrived in Forks yesterday, and hadn't gotten enough sleep.

"Anna," Bella stopped at her bedroom door,"I'm making veggie spaghetti, you want some?"

"You know I'm not big on veggie spaghetti, Bells," Anna replied,"I'll make a grilled cheese or something later."

"Okay," Bella murmured,"but if you change your mind, I'll make you some extra garlic bread."

"You can't go wrong with garlic bread," Anna commented,"I'll eat garlic bread with my grilled cheese." She added with a chuckle, and Bella made a face.

"Ew," She retorted,"that's nasty."

     Anna simply laughed, as Bella left to make dinner. Bella was more into vegetarian meals, but Anna wasn't. She liked meat and more hearty meals. She would never turn down a nice, juicy steak — cooked medium rare. Bella would often make her one for her birthday, and that was the only time she'd cook something like that for Anna. The older sister could cook, but Bella really liked cooking to keep her mind occupied.

     Anna didn't have any homework, but that was because she had finished all of her work during class. Most of the other students had homework; Anna was a part of the very few students that hadn't. She was very smart, which wasn't surprising, so she used her brain to her advantage and never really had homework.

     Anyhow, Anna went downstairs and made herself a couple of sandwiches, and grabbed a piece of garlic bread while she was making her sandwiches. She sat down at the table with Bella and Charlie, but she didn't stay there long. The awkwardness between Bella and Charlie was too much for her, and she didn't want to get mixed up in it. The awkward silence was almost suffocating, she kind of wondered what the two had talked about that made everything so awkward — probably Renée.

"Dad, I'm going to the rez tomorrow after school. Crystal and Alex wanna go to La Push." Anna commented, as she placed her empty plate in the sink.

"Alright," Charlie cleared his throat, trying to sound not as awkward,"just be careful, and be home before dark."

"Will do." She replied, before she dried her hands and headed upstairs to get ready for bed.

     Anna wasn't planning on going to bed immediately, she'd spend time reading for a little bit, but she wanted to get comfortable. First, she grabbed a set of pajamas, before going into the bathroom to clean all of the makeup off of her face, and brush her hair. She then stripped out of her school clothes, and pulled on her pajamas.

     As soon as she was comfortable, she headed to her bed and threw herself down on to it

     As soon as she was comfortable, she headed to her bed and threw herself down on to it. She then reached over to her bedside table and picked up the book she had been reading in class earlier, Queen of the Damned. She loved this book, and would read it many more times if she had the chance.

     Anna was a big fan of fantasy and science fiction, but she loved reading books about vampires the most. The authors always made them so intriguing; always pulling her back for more. Honestly, she wanted to believe that one day she could potentially write her own vampire love story, but she needed more of a love life to even think of writing a story about love. She never really had feelings for anyone before, most people didn't catch her fancy, but deep down, her heart was telling her that someone would soon...
