Throwing the covers off the bed I slowly flipped my body over the side and thumped my feet to the ground. Looking over at the alarm clock it read 7:45. I had slept in. Not that I cared. School was a way to pass the day until I meet up with my boyfriend and drink away the night.
Finding something in my closet was never easy. Shopping was not something I ever did, a few selected items was all I had for school. Pulling out my dark blue jeans and plain black T-shirt I threw them on and headed for the kitchen. Charlie my father had already left for the day. He was the chief of the small town of folks they lived in.
I had moved to folks 4yearsearlier when my mother had suddenly passed away. Renee was the apple of my life. Our relationship extended from the normal mother/daughter bond. We were best friends. After she died I was shipped off to folks to live with my estranged father Charlie.
I reached school around 9am. Knowing I was late I decided to skip home room and wait until first period started at 9.15
Heading up the stairs to the fountain that stood in the middle of the school court yard I spotted my boyfriend James sitting with some of his friends, laughing and joking. Great I thought, he is such a jerk to me when he is around them.
Slowly I trudged up to them; Knowing he would probably make some rude comment to me.
'Hi' she whispered
James looked up to me.
'Hi sexy, come sit down. I was just telling my friends here how great you are in bed'
Blushing instantly I stood up from James's embrace.
'What's wrong baby, I'm talking you up, you should be grateful'
Rage spread through my body. 'Look I have to get to class, I will see you later' I said turning and heading off to my first class.
'By Bella' He called after her
We had been together for a year. My transition to folks had been hard when first moving here; James was the only one to take an interest.
He was good to me when we were by our selves. I shrugged off her anger and picked up my pace to my first class; English.
Entering the class room No one had arrived yet, I was still a little early. Looking around I found a seat at the back and placed my books on the desk. Flipping through a magazine, I heard the door creek open and someone enter. I looked up to see someone walk into the classroom. He had dark bronze hair and stunning features. His Eyes were dark; His skin pale. He was the most gorgeous man I had ever seen.
His eyes fell on me. A small smile played on his lips.
'Hi'
I froze. Was he talking to me, say something I cursed in my head.
'Um Hi' I blurted out. 'You're new here'
'Very observant' He chuckled
My stomach did a flip, His Laugh echoed through my body.
'I'm Mr Cullen, your new English teacher'
New English teacher, He was young enough to be her age I thought
'Oh' is all I could manage out of her mouth
'And your name?' He quizzed
'Bella' I stuttered 'Bella swan'
'Well miss swan I hope you like Shakespeare' He grinned.
'I know it well' I smiled back. I had read all Shakespeare since I was a little girl. This class would be a breeze. Not that I cared
Our eyes slowly left each others as the door to class opened and students started making there way in.
The classroom soon filled and the final bell rang for class. I watched as the stunning new teacher found the front of the class and began his speech.
'I am Mr. Cullen' he started 'Edward Cullen, I will be your English teacher for the next year or so, Your previous teacher as you know has left to enjoy the world of parenting, so here we are'
My heart melted as Edward continued his introduction to the students.
'I expect greatness from all of you; you will get 4 exams over the next couple of months that will be included in your final mark along with finals. And starting today we will be studying Romeo and Juliet and will perform for the rest of school at the end of it. I know you guys have other classes so we wont rush this'
I felt dread wash over me. A production, Romeo and Juliet. This would not be good. Avoid, Avoid and Avoid.
A hand rose in the class, I looked over to see Lauren my worst enemy, we had fought ever since I had been in folks. We had nearly had a scrap in the court yard.
'Yes……..Edward raised his hand to Lauren
'Will there be auditions for the leads, because I think ill make a great Juliet' she gushed
Edward raised his eyebrows frowning slightly; I let out a small chuckle at this.
'Of coarse there will be. Anyone wanting to play the main roles just come and see me and I will put your name down'
Class continued as routine as it used to be. Finally the bell rang for next period; I reached for my bag and slowly started packing my books away. we had all been given a copy of Romeo and Juliet to read before the production would begin. I held the book in my hand as I stood up and headed for the door. Everyone else had already left, I was the last. As I reached the door I heard a chuckle, spinning around Edward was leaning on his desk with a wide crooked grin on his face
'Do I have food on my face' I asked with a slight offended tone
'No not at all miss swan, I was just thinking about my first class here, and I must say there is not a lot of enthusiasm apart from Lauren'
I fist clenched together and I could feel my forehead became rigid
'You don't like her much do?' he smiled again
'She rubs me up the wrong way'
He got off the desk and walked toward me, I could feel her heart speed up as he closed the gap between us 'Are you going to try out for Juliet?' he whispered but enough for me to hear
'I don't think so, actually no defiantly not'
Edward's smile faded 'Why, don't know Shakespeare?'
'I love Shakespeare and I don't need to read this, I have already red this book a thousand times, I just refuse to get up and act it out, its not me'
Edward shook his head 'Maybe you could break out of your norm and try something new, you might enjoy it'
'No thank you Mr Cullen' I stated 'Now I have to get to my next classes
Edward lifted his hand and touched my shoulder, a wave of tingles swept over my whole body. I felt on fire with this simple gesture. 'Ok Bella, ill see you tomorrow' he smiled slightly.
I took a step back from him and reached for the door never once taking my eyes off his. His dark eyes smouldered. I wondered what he was thinking.
'Ok see you tomorrow' I tried to feign a smile
'Looking forward to it Bella' He grinned back at me.
My legs went jelly as I left the room.
