I walked into my first class, Biology, and immediately got a few stares.

"Ms. Cullen?" the teacher asked.

"Yeah, the names Artemis."

"Okay well, please take a seat and try to catch on alright?"

"Got it, Teach." I walked to the back and sat alone at an empty table.

Some people turned back to look at me and I just winked at them or smirked as them.

Everyone filed in and I was still alone in the back. Just as the bell rang, a guy busted through the door.

"Sorry! Sorry, I'm late!" He was breathing heavily as if he just ran but I could tell he was faking it. His heart was calm as heck.

I smirked as he came down the aisle and took the only available seat, next to me.

He had longish black hair that got in his eyes, which were a grayish blue. He was tall and lean, wearing dark pants and a black v-neck. He looked like a total hipster, especially with his gray and blue beanie.

"Hey," he said. "I'm Jace." He stuck his hand out.

I shook it. "Artemis."

He smiled. "Cute name."

"Cute entrance." I smirked and winked at him.

Realization crossed his face. "How'd you know?" He whispers

I chuckled. "I just do."

He chuckled. "Your real cute, Artemis."

"I get that alot."

We smiled at each other before diverting our attention to the teacher.

By the end of class I found out he was an only child and lived with his mother.

He found out that my mother and father 'died' and I was adopted by my uncle at a young age.

The bell rang and I stood to leave, but he grabbed my wrist and I turned to face him.

"What's your next class?" He asked.

"Uh, English. Why?"

"Me, too. Walk with me?" He smiled.

I nodded. "Sure."

It surprised me a bit when he laced or fingers and he led me to class, but I didn't pull back. I guess I kinda. . . liked it.

After English, it was nutrition and we headed out the field. We met up with a couple of his friends and he introduced them to me.

"Guys, this is Artemis. Artemis, my friends."

I smiled and waved. "Sup?"

A perky blonde bimbo quickly sat up. "Hi! I'm Susan, but call me Susie." She gave me a quick hug and then sat back down.

"I'm Rick," said a brown haired guy sitting next to her. He wore a varsity jacket, leading me to believe he was a jock.

"I'm Jonesy! Hi!" said a small brown haired girl with a camera.

"I'm Mark," said the guy next to her. He looked exactly like Rick except he didn't wear a varsity jacket. "I'm Rick's twin brother. And I thought your name was Renesmee or Nessie?"

I cocked an eyebrow and groaned. "Looks like you met my twin."

"You have a twin?" Jace asked.

"Oh yeah, sorry I didn't tell you, but she's not worth wasting my breath about." I rolled my eyes.

"Well I think she's cute," Rick said, earning a glare from Susan.

"Yeah, I like her style," Jonesy said, nodding her head.

I scoffed. "Not hers, my aunt picks out everything for her. And she's practically engaged, so chill, Rick."

He and Jonesy sighed.

In the end we got to know each other. They all had siblings and lived with both their parents, besides Jace that is.

We ended up making plans and decided to go to the beach after school. I agreed but kind of regretted it after they mentioned the beach La Push. I didn't feel like backing out though.
