ELENA'S/BELLA'S POV

I was in fifth period and it was history. I was sitting there dazed, just about in tears. Alaric was in my memories. He was part of my family and just like the others, he perished. He was like another brother. We were close and I just miss that brilliant smile that just warmed up the class.

I took a deep breath and force myself to focus. The adjusting period will just take longer than I thought. I looked to the front and noticed two of the Cullens sitting up front. I believe it is Rosalie and Emmett. The way they looked at each other was... dazzling.

I remember me and Stefan stealing glances of each other every chance we got. I smiled to myself about that. Before I knew it, the bell has rung. I was making my way out of class and this Asian boy came along the side of me. "You're Isabella, right?" He said.

"Yes, but call me Bella." I was becoming use to my name. "You are?"

"My name is Eric. We share 6th hour lunch together. I was wondering if you wanted to join me and my friends." He said.

"As longs there is no McFeelies, then I will." I smirked at him and Eric laughed.

He put up the boy scout symbol. "I promise no McFeelies."

We both laughed. I almost tripped, but Eric caught my arms and level me on the floor. "Thanks."

Eric walked me over to his table and there was three girls and two boys all talking and laughing. "Hey, guys." Everyone popped there heads up to stare up at Eric. "This is my homegirl, Bella."

I gave a small wave. "Bella, this is Ben, Mike, Angela, Lauren, and Jessica." Everyone raised there hands as he said there names. I took a seat between Angela and Jessica. I noticed Lauren giving me dirty looks, but I chose to ignore it.

"So, Bella, where did you move from?" Mike said.

"I moved from Phoenix, Arizona." I replied.

"Why would you want to move to a dump town like this?" Jessica scoffed.

"I was being stalked by this crazed homicidal killer and I'm in witness protection to testify against him for killing my neighbors. Oops, I wasn't suppose to tell you that." Everyone went quiet and horror seeped onto their faces. I busted out laughing. I can't believe they took me seriously. "I'm kidding, guys. I moved because my mother died in a car accident and my father and I needed a change."

Everyone started to laugh nervously. "I'm sorry to hear that, Bella." Angela said.

"Thanks, but I'm doing good. It was awhile ago." I said. I paused and thought to change the subject. "So, what do you guys do around here for fun?" I said.

Jessica was happy to jump in. "Well, we go surfing or shopping or throw parties. We pretty much have to make up things to get through the day. It's a small town. What did you do back home?" Jessica asked.

"We threw parties and one time, my ex-boyfriend's brother and I went on a road trip to go to Georgia. Then it was another time we went to Chicago and New York. It was amazing. We did car washes, which was the best." I said.

They oggled on my words, just amazed. Jessica demeanor changed and I looked over and saw Mike checking me out. Ugh. I thought it was time to dismiss myself. "I'm going to go get something to eat." I walked to the salad bar. I took my time decorating my bowl. I turned around and I jumped backwards causing me to drop my bowl. Alice caught my bowl with perfect timing.

"OH MY GOD! I didn't mean to startle you!." I put my hand over my chest, trying to catch my breath.

"Its okay. I will be fine." I said.
