BELLA'S POV:

My first day at a new school.

It's March, the middle of the semester.

Great.

JACKSON'S POV:

Today is Bella's first day of school at Forks High. I got ready and I texted my girlfriend, Angela Webber, to be ready since I always pick her up for school.  I finished getting ready and I walked into the kitchen to grab something when I saw Charlie putting a cup in the sink.

"You on your way to pick up Angela?" Charlie asked me when he saw me walking in the kitchen.

"Yeah, I'm picking Angela up so that we can meet Bella when she arrives at school," I answered as I got my car keys.

"Alright, I have to go to work, tell her I say hi," Charlie tells me before walking out the door to head to work.

After I quickly ate something, I left so that I could pick Angela up. After a few minutes, I arrived at Angela's house and I saw her walking up to my car and she got in.

"Hey gorgeous," I tell Angela when she closes the door to the car.

"Hey Jackson" Angela greeted back with a slight blush.

We left for the school when she settled in the car.

"How is your cousin settling in?" Angela asked me when we were halfway to the school since she lives near the school.

"She's still adjusting since she's used to living with her mom and she's used to living in sunny Arizona. Bella hasn't been back in Forks since we were 14," I answered while grabbing her hand.

"Don't worry, she'll get used to living here," Angela reassured while squeezing.

"I'd hope so. She stopped coming here a couple of years ago because she hated this place," I tell her.

We talked about what to expect when we get to school since Bella is the new student and in Forks, there are no new students. When we got there, I saw my cousin parking her car, so I parked next to her.

"Nice ride," Tyler said, sarcastically, towards Bella with a slight smile and Lauren laughing behind him.

"Tyler, you shouldn't be talking with your rusty van. And Lauren, you shouldn't be laughing. You no better with your crappy car," I tell them, and both of us stopped laughing, along with the people around us.

"Bella, we'll take you to the office and show you around the school," I tell Bella when I go around to open Angela's door and she nods.

"This is Angela, my girlfriend. Angela, this is my cousin Bella" I introduced them to each other as we walked towards the office.

"Does the staring always happen?" Bella asked when she saw a few people staring.

"People are staring because you're new and because you're talking to me," I answered, which confused her.

"A lot of people are intimidated by him" Angela clarified.

We arrived at the office and we took her to her first class.

LUNCH:

"Babe, I love you, but you don't have to pay for my lunch," Angela tells me as we are walking to the friends where our friends are sitting with my cousin since I see Mike take her to the table.

"Baby, let me spoil you to like the queen that you are now and then," I tell Angela.

"If it's now and then, it's fine but I don't like it when it's when it's all the time because I feel like I can't give you anything," Angela tells me, quietly.

"Angela Webber, the fact that you love me and the fact that you chose to be with me is what you're giving me," I tell her with a big smile.

We arrived at the table and I pulled her to my lap since there weren't enough seats to fit everyone around the table.

"Dude, PDA," Eric said while laughing when we sat down.

"Eric, she's just sitting on my lap, it's not like we're kissing or anything," I tell my friend while we're laughing.

"Jax and Angela, this is the new girl, Bella," Jessica said after Eric got up to talk to our other friends.

"Jess, they're related," Angela pointed out, which shocked Jessica.

"I told you guys that my cousin was coming to live here when my uncle got the call a few weeks ago," I reminded Jessica.

"Who are they?" Bella asked, distracting us from the topic.

We all turned around to see the Cullens walking in.

"The Cullens," Angela answered.

"They keep to themselves," I added on.

Jessica introduced each Cullen couple.

"Who is he?" Bella asked and we see that Edward was the last one of the Cullen siblings to enter the cafeteria.

"That's the loner of the family that most of the girls fantasize about, Edward Cullen," I answered, which caused Angela to gently elbow me and I shrugged.

"He's obviously gorgeous, but nobody here is good enough for him, so don't even try," Jessica said in a sad tone, which made me laugh and glare at me.

"Jessica, you can tell by looking at him that he doesn't like anybody. He always looks like he is bothered by being here with his family and the people in this place," I tell her, which made Angela smack me upside the head.

"The same could be said about you," Angela said, which made us all laugh.

"If that were true, then explain our friends sitting around the table?" I asked, which made us all laugh even harder.

That's when I notice that Bella and Edward are looking at each other, which worries me.

I hope that Edward doesn't like my cousin, or this might end up in disaster.
