LAVENDER SWAN'S POV FORKS, WASHINGTON 11:30 AM, MONDAY
Time seemed to pass by ridiculously slow and after what felt like a hours, the bell had finally rung signalling the end of lesson. Students once again shot up out of their chairs and rushed to exit the class, most letting out various sounds of relief as they stepped into the hallway.
During my second period for the day, which happened to be Spanish class, I found myself seated next to a male of a bigger build who politely introduced himself as Emmett Cullen. As I was slightly intimidated by his build and blinding white smile, I managed to keep the conversation to a minimum and focused on the board which was filled with foreign phrases.
After picking up my things, my feet seemed to navigate their own way towards my locker where I found myself struggling to open the heavily rusted lock. Growing more frustrated and impatient by the second, a gentle hand tapping my shoulder followed by a chirpy giggle caught my attention, causing me to halt my actions.
"It takes awhile to get the hang of the tug and pull method for these things."
Catching the same pair of dazzling honey brown eyes which had been sat next to me during first period, Alice reached her hand out and yanked the locker open with barely any force. Mentally cursing myself for being so weak, I sent a look of gratitude her way before placing my books inside.
"Maybe this is the sign I needed to push me to actually lift some weights for once." I joked whilst shutting the locker closed, I turned to lean my back against it and faced Alice. A taller figure towered over her from behind, his eyes strained on the top of her head never once blinking or looking my way. Coughing awkwardly, I glanced away from the male whose blonde curly locks shielded his face from my view.
"Your boyfriend seems to like your hair..." Although it sounded rude, what came out my mouth at that moment in time never should of. The look on Alice's face changed into one of disgust and the males eyes seemed to snap my way in an instant.
Catching his intense stare was my greatest mistake. He, was absolutely breathtaking. The glow of faint golden flakes danced around within the depths of his coal black irises. Just one look at him sucked the air out of my lungs and I found myself feeling dizzy.
"Boyfriend? god no! Lavender, this is my brother Jasper. He's a little shy around new people." And it was that very moment I wished the ground could've swallowed me whole. My cheeks grew hot and I could feel the familiar rush of blood filling my cheeks increase under the intense stare of one sibling and the laughter of the other.
"Shit!- Alice I am so sorry I-"
"Relax it's totally OK, I actually came over here to ask if you wanted to sit with me and my family at lunch?"
