A/N; Hope you guys like the new story. Reviews are loved and inspire me. XD

Desc; Basically it starts off when Bella would have started school. But she never moved in with her dad, never met Edward, yada yada. Now let's see what happens with my girl.

She sighed softly as she squirmed in her bed. A heavy huff came from her now parted lips as she sat up. Even if she did get back to sleep, her uncle would wake her up for school soon. She rolled her eyes a little and pulled herself out of bed. She looked around her room, it was technically her new room; since she'd just moved in with her uncle a few days ago.

The room was painted a dark blue, like deep water. It was covered in posters of her favorite bands, posters of art; her own as well as others, a billboard next to her dresser mirror was covered in movie ticket stubs and concert ticket stubs. The mirror was covered all along its sides with photos that included her and a bunch of her friends as well as pets.

She grabbed a towel and moved herself into her, thank the stars, private bathroom. Her uncle had enough money, and owned a two story Victorian house. It had four bedrooms, two and a half baths, as well as a nice sized back yard. Her uncle was a doctor at the hospital and pretty good at his job it seemed. She sighed, thinking of the reason she was here, removing her clothes and stepping into the shower.

She let the hot water rush over her and stood there for a moment. She then proceeded to wash her hair then her body, smelling like her lavender body wash and 2-in-1 hair wash. She looked through her dresser, biting her lip as she thought of what to wear. It was the first day at a new school, and she wasn't freaked… but was a little worried. People thought she was odd… but in a small town like Forks, Washington, she'd probably seem even weirder.

"You look nice." her uncle smiled as she walked down the stairs. She'd chosen to wear a dark green shirt with dark red lace for the sleeves, a faded pair of baggy jeans and her favorite pair of black and red checkered converse high tops. Her ebony and blue streaked hair was pulled back, clipped up high on her head.

She looked at her uncle a moment, laughing a little. She hardly ever saw him in his scrubs. He chuckled, understanding her laugh and look. "Your car is out front." he said with a roll of the eyes, tossing her a set of keys. No doubt her house key, a mail box key and finally her car key. Just like he'd promised when she'd arrived.

"Thanks Uncle Kevin." she smiled softly at him, grabbing a juice out of the fridge. "I'm going to check out the town after school." she spoke, letting him know case he got off work before she got home.

"That's fine." he smirked a little, watching her grab a cereal bar out of the cabinet.

"Later." she told him as her goodbye, walking out the door. She came upon a VW Bug, colored a dark blue color but slightly lighter than her bedroom walls. It wasn't hard to tell what her favorite color seemed to be. She got into the car and pulled out of the driveway, listening to the small complaint from the car. It wasn't that old, nor did it purr like she's have liked.

She pulled into the school parking lot, semi-early from what she could tell. There were only a few cars parked, and she had no idea whether those were teachers or students.

"Hi! You must be Dr. Petersen's niece!" a voice yelled, causing her to actually pay attention where she was going. She looked up just in time to run into the guy that had spoken to her.

"Yeah." she responded, not offering her name.

"I'm Mike Newton." he introduced himself and she smiled a little. It was nice for a guy to offer his name before asking hers.

"It's a pleasure." she grinned at him, and he looked like he was waiting for something. "Oh, sorry. I'm Nicole Jensen." she smiled again, looking around a moment. She could sense something strange but didn't really see anything out of the ordinary. She shrugged inwardly and looked back up at Mike.

He was taller than her, that was for sure. But not by much, and his skin was darker than hers but then again not by much there either. He looked into her piercing green eyes, as if thinking of something more to say.

"Can I walk you to your first class?" he asked and she nodded with a polite smile.

"Sure, why not." she chuckled softly, following him though he stayed walking next to her. They chatted about a few things and they stopped at a classroom door.

"Want me to walk you to your next class, after this one of course? I'm just across the hall in English." he said with a bright smile on his face.

"Sure, if its not a bother." she smiled politely again, waving a little as she walked into her class.

The day had dragged a little, people coming up to introduce themselves. Acting like her new best friend, being a doctor's niece seemed big or something. She'd managed to be polite and was happy when lunch came around.

Mike waited for her, which she just raised a brow out. This boy was like a lost little puppy, cute but seemingly annoying. As they walked through the line she grabbed a bottle of water and an apple, not even bothering with a tray. Mike walked her over to a table, introducing her to a few people.

She recognized Jessica, a girl from one of her classes, as well as Angela who was also in one of her morning classes. She smiled and joined the conversation here and there for a few moments. Calmly answering things for them until she felt a pair of eyes on the back of her neck. Jessica leaned over, laughing a little.

"One of the Cullen boys is staring at you." she smirked, but an emotion was lain in the deeper crevice of her face.

"Who?" she asked, confused and less giddy then Jessica thought she would.

"Edward Cullen, he's the youngest." Mike grimaced as he joined the conversation. Nicole turned around a moment, connecting her warm and cool green eyes with his strange topaz yet clouded ones.

Nicole didn't blush really, only a small tint of red hit her cheeks; not enough to even make her face feel hot. She noticed his pale skin, his beautiful face and his youthful body. She thought about it a moment, held back a laugh and just curved her lip into a little smile. Course not one of those 'embarrassed, he's looking at me, oh god!, impress!', smiles. More so this sly little one she'd perfected over the last few years.

He turned away swiftly at this and she turned back towards her 'friends.'

"That was really weird!" Jessica laughed, who'd apparently been watching. "Most girls would lavish in the fact that Cullen was looking at her." Jessica snickered a little, that same hidden emotion behind her happy little expression.

"He's a boy…" she breathed, smiling some; normally so, at Jessica. Mike listening in again, watching her for a moment. "Who cares why he's even staring." she lied with a smirk, but of course it was harder then most to tell when she was lying.

Years of telling lies here and there to people, to her family; perfected that such skill as well. She winced at the thought of her parents and looked up a moment. She turned around to notice Edward looking at her again, then noticed his friends were getting up one by one to leave.

"My uncle toward me a little about Dr. Cullen, saying he's apparently adopted those kids?" she asked Jessica as they both stood up to leave for their next class. Mike following behind as they threw their stuff away.

"Yeah, pretty much. Him and his wife are too young for any of them to be their real kids. Alice, Emmett and Edward are Cullens, while Rosalie and Jasper are Hales. You'll learn who is who after a while." she laughed softly. Nicole nodded with a smile and said goodbye to Jessica as Mike once again offered to walk her to her class.

In chemistry she did the usual routine of a new student, walked herself up to the teacher to get what ever information he had for her. As well as get her schedule checked off, proof she'd gone to the right class; she was to turn the slip in at the end of the day.

She noticed that there was only one seat open, Mike sadly disappointed as he took his seat across the room next to his lab partner. She followed his glaring gaze to notice the boy that had been staring at her during lunch. Oh what was his name now… she searched her brain for a moment, biting her bottom lip. Oh! Edward, that was it. He looked at her strangely for a moment, his fists clenched in obvious frustration.

She slipped herself behind him and sat in her seat, eyes flickering to his face for a brief moment; then to her book in front of her. He seemed to sit on the far reaches of his seat and she just rolled her eyes, quietly writing notes in her notebook as the teacher spoke.

She got bored after a moment and quickly let her gaze move around. Even that Edward kid was staring forward, yet still clenched and hard like stone. She smiled a little to herself and set her pencil down, lifting her finger a little and the pencil did the same movement as if someone was touching it.

She hadn't noticed Edward's gaze shift, either that or she for some reason didn't care. Out of the corner of his eye he saw her finger do little movements whilst the pencil moved in a writing motion. She looked over at him a moment, smiling slyly. She herself had realized something, and snickered a little.

Leaning towards him, but very little, she let her eyes gaze into his cold and clouded ones. "If you keep trying to get into my head, you might give me a headache keeping you out." she smiled as she spoke, the bell ringing seconds later. She stood up and walked out of the room, Mike following her and keeping good pace.

"What was with Edward today in class?" Mike asked after a moment. Nicole shrugged a little, smiling up at him.

"Must be afraid of me," she smirked, giving Mike a playful little snap of her jaws. Mike chuckled, smiling charmingly at her.

"Looked like he was more angry than anything." Mike spoke after a moment and Nicole shrugged again, but played Edward's reactions to her words in her head again. He'd given a confuse and yet angrier look, even now she tried not to laugh.

She found her way to class, one with the girl she knew as Jessica. She said goodbye to Mike and surprised herself by making it through the rest of the school day.

She was surprised when she saw a dark eyed boy looking over her car at the end of the day. Sooner than she would have thought possible, his head jerked up and looked at her. His nostrils flared and he made his way to his own car. She chuckled softly as she came upon her car, opening the door and slipping inside.

She's decided to look around town later and when she arrived home her Uncle was there, playfully complaining about a slow day. She rolled her eyes with a small grin and checked the new stack of mail. When she found nothing for her, she walked into the kitchen where her Uncle had disappeared to.

"That nice man from La Push called for you. I told him I'd have you call him back." her Uncle smiled and she nodded.

"Will do Kevin." she smiled, making the trip up the stairs to her room before he could ask how her first day of school went.

She sat herself on her bed and pulled her knees up to her chest, thinking for a moment. She took a clip and twisted her hair a bit then pinned it to her head. A few loose strands hanging against her face. After a few minutes she leaned back a little and picked up her portable phone off the receiver.

She searched it's phone book, glad for once that her uncle had remembered to import needed things into it. Sure she had a cell phone, but it didn't have the number she need in it. After dialing the number she heard it ring twice before it was answered.

"Hello?" asked a young, soothing male voice. She knew it didn't belong to the person who'd called for her.

"Hey, is Billy there? It's Nicole." she spoke, knowing the man would know just which Nicole was calling; not that she knew if he knew many other Nicoles.

"Nicole? Nicole Jensen? Nikki! It's Jake!" exclaimed the voice, causing her to smile.

"Hey there you rambunctious little fellow." she teased, grinning a bit more. "Can I talk to your dad please, Kevin said he called for me." she informed him.

"Yeah, hold on. I'll go get him." he spoke with slight disappointment. She heard him yelling for his dad, he must be outside with Jake at the door. "He's coming. It was nice to hear from you Nikki, you should come down and see us soon." he spoke and then handed the phone off before she could respond.

"Nicole?" Billy's voice rang with a happy tone.

"Yeah, hey there." she said with a smirk. "Kevin said you called?" she asked, swearing she could hear his brain move a little as he nodded eagerly.

"I was hoping you could come up this weekend. We're planning a bit bon-fire party… your welcome party actually. So we'd really like you to come." he chuckled, this information causing her to smile brightly.

"Course I'll come down Billy, wouldn't miss a party in my honor for anything." she laughed a bit. It was probably better than just sitting around the house with time to think, she hated thinking serious things right now.

"Good, Jake and the rest will be glad." Billy chuckled, finishing up the conversation by giving her the time to show up. "See you there." he said finally and hung up the phone.

She smiled a little, looking around her room a little. It'd be nice to see Billy again, she preferred the active lives of the people down in La Push, to her low drama life stuck here in her uncle's house. It was said that she spent more time visiting Billy and the La push lot, then she did in her uncle's home on visits. But he worked a heck of a lot, so it wasn't hard to spend a day in La Push with that still being said.

She pulled out her homework and begun on it, finishing it up within an hour. She flipped boredly through TV channels, yawning a little. She turned off the TV and pulled out a book, thumbing slowly through pages as she read every detail of them.

After what seemed like forever she gave a look to her clock, it was ten at night. Good, she'd managed to bore herself the rest of the afternoon. She thought a moment and figured she could either find a job tomorrow… or adopt a puppy.

She yawned, waving her hand and the light switch flipped itself off. She curled herself up under her covers after having set the alarm next to her bed, and fell asleep.

A/N; ALRIGHT! Review and lemme know. He he. I'll put more chapters up anyways has it's fun to write, but I still love your thoughts and opinions.
