Bella's P.O.V

First day of school. I like today just because you can see everyone and see who changed. I walked downstairs to see Mom taking some pictures of Blaine. I walked over and made me some breakfast.

"Ready for your first day of your junior year?" Mom asked me.

"Yup."

"What about Collin?"

"I think he's excited as well. Nervous however on changing schools," I told her.

"Well he has you," Mom told me.

"I know. This is going to be great," I told her.

"Is Collin picking you up?" She asked me.

"Yeah. He's coming to pick me up," I nodded.

"Has he asked you to be his girlfriend yet?" Mom asked me.

"Not yet," I said.

"Really? You both have been on what? Three dates?" Mom asked me.

"When he's ready to ask me, he'll be ready. I don't want to pressure him," I told her.

"Okay. I understand."

The doorbell rung making me walk over to the front door. I saw Collin ready to go making me smile.

"Hi, Collin," I said.

"Hey, Bella," Collin smiled at me.

"Do you want to come in?" I asked.

"Sure."

"Hello, Collin," Mom said from the kitchen.

"Morning Aunt Aria," Collin said as I closed the door behind him.

"Do you want some breakfast? I made extra," Mom offered him.

"I'm good. Thank you though,"

"Ready for school today?" I asked Collin.

"Yup."

"Well, I hope both of you have a good day today," Mom told us.

"Thanks, Mom."

"Thank you, Aunt Aria," Collin smiled.

We walked outside to his car. I got inside the passenger side while he got ready in the driver's side. Collin drove off making me excited a little.

"I can't believe we're starting school together," I said.

"I know. We haven't been in the same school together since you were in New York," Collin told me.

We made it to school and we got out of the car. Collin walked over to me. I held his hand before looking up at him. I smiled as he smiled down at me.

"Come on," I said before leading him to the entrance. 

We checked to see where our first period was before I showed Collin where the classes were. I showed him the yearbook room where he was excited to be in.

"Bella!" I felt my best friend wrap her arms around me. I looked behind me and smiled. 

"Hey, Melody," I said. 

"Who's the cutie?" She asked.

"Melody, this is Collin. Collin, this is Melody," I introduce the two. 

"Nice to meet you," Collin said offering a handshake.

"So you're the cutie who's stealing Bella's heart," Melody said before shaking his hand.

"Seems so," Collin chuckled a bit. 

"Are you guys boyfriend and girlfriend?" Melody asked. We stayed silent for a bit. We went on one date but were we boyfriend and girlfriend material? The bell rung making us look around a bit. 

"I'll see you at lunch," I told Collin.

"Alright. I'll see you in a bit," He said. I kissed his cheek before leaving with Melody.
