Baby Isabella

Chapter 15

The girl smiled at me and held out her hand, which I took and shook hesitantly.

"Hi. I'm Jessica." She said.

"Bella." I mumbled.

"And who is he?" She asked, gesturing to Jasper.

"I'm Jasper Hale." Jasper answered while grabbing his books.

"Do you need help getting to your next class?" She asked.

"No, thank you." I responded politely knowing that I would just follow whatever family member who had class with me.

"Ok then. Let me know if you need anything." She offered.

I nodded in response. I turned to Jasper and followed him out of the room.

Outside waiting for us was all of my siblings.

"How was your first class little sis." Emmett asked, putting an arm around my shoulders.

"Fine. I've already read all of the material so it shouldn't be too bad." I shrugged.

"We told you it would be fine." Rosalie teased. I just rolled my eyes.

"That was just the first hour. I have five more to go." I groaned.

"Well then we don't want to be late to the next class." Edward smirked.

"Then lead the way." I retorted.

We all said our goodbyes and parted ways to our classes. I walked with Edward and Emmett to Government.

We walked into the room and got our seats. Edward and I sat at a table and Emmett sat behind us next to a very intimidated boy.

I felt Edward tense next to me.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"I don't like what some of these guys are thinking about you." He whispered.

I sat there a little shocked and I noticed that Emmett had started looking around at some the guys in the room.

"There's nothing we can do about them. Try to tune them out." I suggested.

"Okay." He sighed. I smiled and turned forward as the class started.

Government seemed like a pretty straight-forward, boring class. I ended up doodling on my notebook.

The teacher gave us free time for the last 15 minutes of the class because he had finished going over the plans for the semester. I felt several pairs of eyes turn towards us and I hid behind my hair and continued drawing.

"How was this hour?" Edward asked me quietly.

"Four left." I sighed, trying to reassure myself. I heard Edward and Emmett chuckle and I rolled my eyes.

"Excuse me, you're the Cullens, right?" I heard a male voice from next to me. I looked up from my sketch to see a relatively thin, messy blonde haired, boy smiling nervously at me.

"Yes. I'm Edward, this is Emmett and Bella." Edward answered politely and gestured to us.

"I'm Mike." He said holding out his hand.

I grabbed his hand, knowing that Edward and Emmett's skin was too cold. Mike smiled wider and brought my hand up to his mouth and lightly kissed that back of it.

"It's a pleasure to meet you." He smirked.

"Ditto" I pulled back my hand quickly hiding my unavoidable blush of awkwardness behind my hair again.

I saw Edward's clenched fist so I tapped him with my foot hopeing to get him to calm down.

"Well, I guess I'll see you later." He muttered and quietly walked away.
