Chapter 8

It is the first day after winter break and the Cullens had finally convinced me to attend High School like all the other normal kids. My new identity was the new adopted Cullen. This was perfect. I finally was considered as part of the family. As one of the Cullens. After Leah’s wedding we moved to their home in Oregon which seemed just as beautiful and clean as their house in Forks. As I got out of bed, I went to use the bathroom and finished my daily routine. After I got out I put on some clean clothes and walked down the stairs to the kitchen. Unlike most of the Cullens, I still had to eat so I grabbed an orange and started peeling.

“Morning Katniss.” Bella said as she walked through the back door. Her and Edward stayed in their cottage a few miles away from the house.

“Morning” I replied just as I finished my orange and threw the peels and seeds into the trashcan.

“Are you nervous?” Bella asked as she sat on the stool nearest me. ”I remember my first day of school in Forks, it was …… strange.”

“How come?” I asked as she started to gain my interests.

“Because all the boys started to flirt with her and she had no idea at the time.” Said Edward as he came through the back door holding both his and Bella’s backpacks. He came over to where Bella was sitting placed her bag on the countertop and kissed her on the cheek.

“No. It was actually strange because my new biology partner kept trying to get away from. He couldn’t even sit next to me without covering his mouth as if I smelled like garbage.” Bella said laughing, “I think his name was Hedward Sullen or something like that.”

“Yeah I bet it was something like that. I think I remember him he was some weird kid” Alice said as she jumped in through the window from a tree branch with Jasper close behind. After some time of making jokes about Bella’s first day of school, everyone was in the kitchen.

“Okay I guess it’s time to go to school” Ejay said as everyone went to the garage.

When is stepped into the garage I couldn’t help but smile as I saw rows of cars after cars. It was beautiful. Mercedes, BMWs, Lamborghinis, Ferraris, Aston Martins, Audis, Range Rovers, were all lined up in a perfect line going on and on for as far as you could see. They even had one or two Maybachs and a Rolls Royce. I knew the Cullens were rich but I didn’t exactly how rich. Sure I was rich but my father never allowed us to use ‘useless human toys’ as he liked to call them.

“Pick your poison.” Ejay whispered in my ear. I could feel his breath run down my neck and couldn’t help but shiver a little. Was it getting hot in here? As he asked, I walked around and looked for something real good. I looked up and saw Edward and Bella getting into some old Volvo, I looked in another corner of the room and saw Emmet and Rosalie getting into a Range Rover. I spotted Alice and Jasper getting into a Mercedes and then there was Nessie and Jacob getting into an Audi. So everyone goes to school separately? Cool. I swept my eyes across the room and almost cried when I saw my dream car. I ran towards it and almost hugged the hood from excitement. I heard a chuckle that suspiciously sounded like Ejay but I didn’t care. It was the most gorgeous Aston Martin One-77.

“I want this one.” I said pointing to the beautiful object. Ejay chuckled and picked out the keys from a board which held keys to all the cars like at a valley. He grabbed them and came running back to the car and opened my door for me. I couldn’t help the blush that crept onto my cheeks. “Thanks” I whispered and sat down on the smooth leather.

“So I’m just gonna break everything down for you. At school we usually don’t affiliate ourselves with the humans because we don’t want any incidents” he said with a special emphasis on the word incidents. ”so we usually just chill with each other but if you want to make human friends that’s cool.” He said. I laughed a little as we passed the woods outside his house. It was a rainy day which was apparently normal. I looked around and noticed how beautiful the landscape was. “Mom and Dad made sure that you will have the same schedule as me so I can show you around and stuff.” He said looking at me.

“Okay.” I said as I started to get the first day jitters that came out of no where.

“Hey,” Ejay said as he grabbed my hand which was resting on the side of my seat “it’s gonna be okay, and you should probably get used to first days it kind of normal in the Cullen family.” He said with the most adorable crooked smile on his face. Just as he finished we drove into the school parking lot. Everyone was looking at us. Ejay parked right next to Jacob and Nessie’s car and got out. Okay, calm down, here we go. I thought as I got out of the car to be welcomed with curious stares and envious glares.
