Any whisper that had been fluttering around the classroom vanished as soon as Cassie Swan dared the teacher. Rosalie took this opportunity to leave the front of the class and head to her seat, in front of her brothers, she could see that Edward followed her as she walked but Jasper's stayed on the new girl, his frown still settled, and confusion evident on his face.
"Why were you helping her?" Edward asked in a low whisper that only his siblings could hear, Rosalie sat down and took her books out carefuly before turning back to her brother and giving him a half-confused look, one that represented her own interior confusion.
As Rosalie shrugged at her brother's question, her golden eyes moved to her twin brother, who had yet to tear his confused eyes from Cassie's defiant figure.

The sound of scribbling on paper was a sound that filled the classroom for every student, with every once in a while chalk running across the blackboard.

Despite her condition, Cassie nearly skipped down the stairs on her way to lunch, under the strange yet protective gaze of the Hale twins, who during Calculus had kept a keen eye on her.
It was strange for students to see the Hale twins and one of their Cullen siblings following after someone, and while some assumed that they didn't want to snap at the clearly sick girl and tell her to move, while other had already started to spread their speculations through out the stairs and hall.
