Gym Class

The boys basketball team runs drills on half the basketball court. A girls volleyball game occupies the other half. Bella, in gym clothes, avoids the volleyball like it's radioactive. An energetic, athletic team captain, JESSICA , motivates the players as soul watches while on the bench eating her snacks, since she was pregnant soul couldn't play.

"Block it, Chloe! Yeah! Good attack!"Jessica cheered as Unfortunately, the volleyball heads toward Bella. She closes her eyes and flails at it, smacking it. It flies off court and beans a basketball player in the head. He is MIKE NEWTON, good looking, affable, with blond spiky hair.

"Ow!" Mike cried out as Bella hurries to him as soul winced at the at the scene of what happened.

"Are you alright? I warned them not to make me play".  Bella said embarrassed as Mike had turned around to see who caused the Ball to hit him. "It's only a flesh wound." Mike  grins and she smiles, soul walks to help Bella out as Mike rubbed the back of his neck, trying to shake the pain to make himself look tough in front of Bella.

"No way you're Isabella and Soulien right? He said, "Souline". The brunette corrected at same time as Bella said "Just Bella".

Mike held out his hand out his hand "Yeah. I'm Mike Newton". 

"Nice to meet you", Soul smiled. Her head turned Suddenly, Jessica appears, stepping between them. Subtle, but possessive as she nudges Mike.

"She's got a great spike, doesn't she?"Commented jokingly, causing Mike to chuckle. I'm Jessica by the way. She introduced herself, soul noticed her eyes would switch between the girls and Mike to observe what his reaction would be towards the girls and soul realized that Jessica had a crush on Mike."So, you're from Arizona, and your from New Orleans right? Aren't people supposed to be tan down in Arizona? Said looking at Bella and Souline.

"That's right". Soul said at the same time as Bella said That's why they kicked me out.

Mike laughs, and because he does, Jessica does. Bella and Soul just feels uncomfortable with the attention.. then the bell rings which means it was time for lunch, thank goodness souline thought to herself.

Time skip (The Cafeteria)

Bella and the pregnant brunette followed Mike and Jessica as they carry their trays to a table. Eric appears, and squishes into a seat next to Bella and soul.

"Hey, Mike, you met my home girls Soul and Bella?" Eric asked, as Mike offered him a him a burrito." Oh, your "home girls?" He asked back.  "Yeah." Eric nod. "That's..."Mike trailed off. Before he could respond, a boy came over to them and kissed Bella and Soul on the cheek." My girls". He said and then pulled the chair out from underneath Mike, letting him fall to the floor. He then quickly runs away chase after him." Sorry, I had to mess up your game, Mike!"

"Tyler!" Mike yelled out after him. " oh, my god." Jessica gasped as she moved closer to the girls. "It's first grade all over again, and you're the shiny new toys." "That's makes me feel great about myself." Bella mumbled under her breath, not liking compared to a toy used my children.

"So you guys have been friends for a long time?" Soul asked asked the group, changed the subject from what uncomfortable conversation when she realized that they have been friends since their childhood.

"Yeah, since elementary school". Jessica nodded as she took a bite of her apple. " I honestly have no idea how we've stayed together for this long but I guess since we live in such a small town we don't have much of a choice". Before she could response, Angela pulls out a camera and told them to smile. Soul flinched when the flash hit her eyes and Bella smiles awkwardly.

"Sorry, needed a candid for the feature". She told them.

"The feature's dead, Angela. Don't bring it up again." Eric said seriously walking over to Bella and patting her on the shoulder comfortably." I got your back, baby." He said causing Jessica to scoff in disbelief at what he just said.

"Guess we'll just run another editorial on teen drinking." Angela frowned as she deleted the picture she had just taken from her camera.

"Sorry. There's always eating disorders, or Speedo padding on the swim team". Soul suggested, causing Bella to snicker at her suggestion.

" Wait, that's a good one.." Angela said agreeably."I definitely think we could use those ones here. We've got people who do that".

Soul looked at her phone and Bella look out the window while Jessica and Angela talked, Bella noticing a group walked by cafeteria windows. "Who are they?." Bella asked as soul look over from her phone

Angela looked over at who Bella was talking about and then back at her and soul. She rested her elbows on the table in front of her. "The Cullens she answered.

Two guys, two girls, all chalky pale, purplish shadows under their eyes and and all devastatingly beautiful.

They move through the room with effortless grace, and take a seat at a table furthest from soul and Bella's. Bella and souline leans over to Jessica and Angela.

"Doctor and Mrs. Cullen's foster kids. They all moved down here from Alaska two years ago". Jessica said as she leans in, swinging into gossip mode.

Hayley and Dr. Cullen probably would have met by now, assuming that she works at the same hospital.

"They kinda keep to themselves".  Angela said as soul nodded, taking in the information not expecting to be so tame. "Because they're all together. Like, together together. The  blonde girl, Rosalie, and the big dark-haired guy, Emmett.." Jessica continued as they enter the cafeteria

ROSALIE, 18, long blonde hair, model beautiful, knows it. Alongside her is EMMETT, 17, big, brawny, like a weight lifter, but a playful glint in his eye.

Jessica's voice lowered in to whisper so she could inform the girls who was who. "Jess, they're not actually related". Angela remind her friend. "But they live together. And the little dark haired girl, Alice, she's really weird.." Jessica defends

ALICE, 17, pixie-like, rail thin, light on her feet with short, black hair going in every direction. She hovers over, JASPER, 18, honey-blond hair, tall, lean, slightly tortured.

"she's with Jasper, the blonde who looks like he's in pain. I mean, Dr. Cullen's like this foster dad slash match maker." Jessica joked

Soul looks up seeing that Jasper looked like he was struggling and that Alice was comforting him with her being there. Soul shrugged. "Maybe he's in pain, you never know". She told them. Maybe they were all probably over thinking things and Jasper just wan't a people person and being in a social settings probably made him nervous she thought.

"Maybe he'll adopt me." Angela smiled dreamily as Bella and Soul laughs, liking her... then sees the last Cullen to enter

EDWARD, 17. Lanky, with untidy, bronze colored hair. He seems inwardly turned, mysterious. More boyish than the others. But the most striking of all.

"Who's he? Bella asked, "That's Edward Cullen." Jessica answered.

"He's totally gorgeous, obviously. But apparently, no one here is good enough for him. Like I care. Jessica said".

"Anyway, don't waste your time" Jessica continue saying. " sure" Soul said added as took a bit of her apple, "who would love me always I don't know the meaning of love anymore or what it feels like . Soul thought as put her hand on her belly as feels the twins kicked all Souline knew was that love her daughters.  Edward was reading her thoughts and frown all he could think about was who hurt his mate

  I wasn't planning on it. Bella told Jessica told Bella as Edward look over at Soul who was smiling as look down at her belly then Bell rang and soul got up to throw her trash away before walking to her class.
