Okay so I have had three other stories and only one has started off well, but is falling down because I haven't updated in so long and that story is getting boring to me. I think I will do a new one and here it is!!

ALL HUMAN!!

BellaPOV

I've never really been considered a normal girl at my school. I didn't have many friends… that were girls. I've always had guys as friends. I'm not sure why, I guess I just can relate to them more. I've been more of the sporty type, not the snobby kind. I shudder at the mere thought of skirts and dresses. I like to wear just simple jeans or basketball shorts. Mostly jeans. I'll only wear shorts if its way too hot (ha! If possible in Forks) or if I'm playing some sport with my friends.

Speaking of friends…

"Hey, Bella!" Emmett called, one of my best friends, from down the hall.

"Sup, Em!" I called back.

"Hey, Edward is looking for you," he said as he caught up with me.

My heart skipped a beat. "Why?" I asked. Why would he want me?

You see, I have always had a little crush on my best friend, Edward Cullen. But, he doesn't seem interested. We were just friends.

"Oh. That I don't know, but you never know," Emmett nudged and winked at me. I giggled at him. Emmett knew I liked Edward, and so did Jasper. Jasper Hale, another one of my friends. Us four are like the three musketeers. Wait…there are four of us. Oh whatever!!

"Emmett!" I groaned. "I know he doesn't like me!"

"Who doesn't?" somebody asked from behind me. I jumped and spun around, a little too quickly that I almost fell back before Emmett caught me.

I glared at Jasper, he and Em just busted out laughing. "That is not funny and you know pretty damn well who I am talking about, Jazz."

Jasper just shrugged and kept chuckling. "Oh, Ed's lookin' for you," he stated.

I sighed. "I know that. But, what for?"

"We're not supposed to tell, but he's by his Volvo waiting," Em said, trying to control his laughter.

"Emmett, it really wasn't that funny," Jazz said giving him and you-are-such-a-retard look.

"Yeah!! But…but did you… see the look…on her face!!" he said between laughter.

Jazz chuckled. "Yes, Em. And Bells? You better go."

"Oh. Right," I mumbled and walked outside quickly. It was our lunch period and our basketball coach said not to eat anything, but an apple, and us four didn't really eat them so we didn't eat at all. We never really got that hungry until practice is over, and when a game is going on that day, we went out to eat quickly at a pizza place.

I finally reached his car and I saw him listening to his iPod and leaning against his passenger door. He smiled his breathtaking crooked smile at me and pushed against the car to stand upright and took out his earphones.

"Hey Eddie!" I greeted him cheerfully.

His smile turned into a mocking scowl and muttered, "I told you not to call me that."

I smiled wider. "I know," I giggled. "What did you want?"

He looked like he just remembered what he was going to say. "Oh yeah. Uhh… You wanna come by my house around five and practice for basketball with me?" he asked nervously. "Oh and uhh, Em will be there and I can invite Jazz so we can play two on two. What do you say?"

"Why didn't you have Em just ask me himself?" I asked him curiously. Did he just want to see me alone? Why is he so nervous looking all of a sudden?

He sighed. "Look, I need your help." I nodded telling him to go on. "There is this girl I like…" he trailed off, looking down at his feet. I was sad. How could he like somebody? I thought he…oh yeah. He's only my best friend…nothing more. My heart felt like it has been ripped right out of my chest. Jealousy pulsed through me at whoever has stolen Edward's heart.

I nodded again, too afraid of my voice. It might quiver and stutter.

"Well, I really like her and, I want some way to tell her how I feel. I don't know. She's just so smart, pretty, funny, athletic, and she's just so similar to me. I don't know what to do. Can you help me since you are a girl?" he asked, almost shyly.

I forced a laugh. "Well this girl sounds nice. She must be lucky to have a guy like you. And as for what to do, I'm not sure. Just get to bond with her more, know her better. Ask her on a date to the movies if she seems interested. Do what you would do, Edward. And also, one question…. Who is this girl?" I asked raising one eyebrow.

"You would know her. She looks a lot like you, and pretty much all of the same similarities. You should get to know her. But, I can't tell you her name yet, that's a secret," he smiled warmly at me, it made me melt on the inside, but I was still angry, sad, and jealous. I think I have to talk to Em and Jazz later.

"She sounds like your type," I said, hoping he didn't miss the double meaning. It looks like he did.

He smiled even bigger. "Thanks, Bells," he said and hugged me. He patted my back in a brotherly manner and let go. "I'll see you later, I ran around a little, so I need to eat an apple so I don't pass out tonight."

I giggled. "So five?"

He chuckled and nodded. "Five."

Then he ran off. I felt tear brimming at the edge of my eyes. I sucked in a deep breath and fought the tears, blinking them away. I slowly turned around and walked back inside to my next class with Jazz. Maybe I'll talk to him there, he always knows how to calm people down.

As I walked, I was thinking. How could he like somebody else? And why won't he tell me her name? She sounds really nice and I guess he really likes her by the way he said each word. But I have this feeling that it wasn't just any girl he was talking about. If it wasn't then who was it? Oh I'm so confused!! I have to ask Jazz.

Speak of the devil…

"Hey! What's up Bells?" Jazz asked as we both sat down in Trig. I looked into his icy blue eyes and frowned. His smile turned into a frown as well.

I sighed. "Nothing."

"Bella," he said cautiously. "What did Edward do?"

"Nothing," I repeated. "It was me that did something. I shouldn't have fallen for him Jazz! I knew he didn't like me, but, I just couldn't give hope! Now I feel all shattered and broken! Jasper, I feel so stupid! I shouldn't have even have liked him more than a friend! I knew this would happen someday, only because I've been too scared to do anything!" I said and tears started brimming over.

Jasper pulled me into a quick hug and patted my back like Edward did. "What did he do Bella?" he asked again, pain on his face. He hates seeing me in pain. He isn't really used to tears that much, but he knows how to deal with them. Always the sensitive type.

"He likes another girl," I muttered and looked down, pulling out of his arms.

He put his hands on my shoulders. "Bella. It will be okay, really. Edward had never had a girlfriend before because he has liked somebody for a very long time, and she likes him back. Neither of them had been brave enough to take their relationship to a new level, but it will get better Bella, I promise. I know that everything will get better soon. What I'm saying is probably not making any sense, but just listen. It will be okay." He sounded so sincere and promising, now I can't doubt him. I feel like a girly-girl now. I can't believe I cried over a boy. I sighed and nodded at Jazz. He's always so helpful.

"Thanks Jazz, you always know how to make me feel better," I smiled warmly at him and the bell rang and people shuffled in, getting out of lunch period. Jazz and I always get here early.

Rosalie Hale, Jasper's twin, came in looking as good as ever. She looked like a model with her beautiful icy blue eyes and her blonde hair that went mid-back and was straightened, her perfect curves in all the right places, her light make up, and her long legs. She was absolutely perfect. All the boys drool over her, but she is dating Emmett.

"Jasper," Rose said bitterly, sitting down behind me.

"Rosalie," he spat back in the same tone.

I looked between them as they glared at one another. "What's up with you guys?"

"Nothing, Rose just decided to be mean and pop my basketball and break a guitar string on my baby!" he whisper yelled as the teacher began class.

Rose snorted softly. "It was worth it! You trashed my make up bag and broke some of my heals and broke my straightener!"

"Well sorry if I don't like all of the guys at this school drooling all over my sister!" he whispered angrily back.

Rose's eyes softened. "You were protecting me?" she asked, no longer angry.

Jasper huffed and looked forward at the board and nodded slowly.

"Aw! Jazz I'm so sorry!! I'll buy you a new string and basketball! I'm so sorry!" she whispered, sounding sad that she hurt her twin.

"JASPER, BELLA, ROSALIE!" the teacher yelled at us three. "PAY ATTENTION!! And I'll see all three of you after class!" he yelled again.

All three of us sighed and turned to face him. "Yes, sir."

Jasper even gave him a mocking salute, which made the whole class burst into giggles.

He gave him a warning glance and yelled at the class. "SETTLE DOWN OR DETENTION!!" The whole class quickly calmed, afraid.

"Wow, he's so hard headed," I muttered to Jazz. He chuckled and the teacher looked at me.

"SWAN!! DETENTION!!" he screamed at me.

I put my hands up, looking defeated. "Whatever, dude."

He looked angry and a vain popped out on his head. "Listen young lady! I will not put up with you today. Go-,"

"Whoa, sounds like somebody had a little too much to drink at the bar last night," Jazz interrupted, backing me up.

"DETENTION FOR YOU, TOO, MR. HALE!!" he screamed at Jasper.

He slipped an arm around my shoulders and said in a girly voice, "Whatever! As like long as I'm like totally with my B-F-F!!" he spelled.

The whole class erupted into giggles.

"AFTER CLASS, AND REMEMBER BOTH OF YOU, DETENTION!!!" he yelled violently.

Jazz sat back into his seat and we both shrugged and said, "Whatever."

Yeah, we were always known as the class clowns.

The class ended quickly and Rose, Jazz, and I went up to his desk.

"What did you think you were talking in the middle of class for?" he said, trying to be calm.

"Well, Rose and I had a problem at home and we were arguing and Bella was trying to break us up," Jazz said as if it were nothing.

"Well it better not happen again. Rosalie, you are dismissed," he waved her off staring a bit at her chest. Jasper's teeth clenched and the teacher turned to us. "As for you two-,"

Jasper cut him off. "Dude, do not stare at my sister's chest. That's why we argued. I broke into her make up and broke her straightener thingy so guys would quit staring," he said angrily.

The teacher looked guilty, but wasn't going to admit it. "I did no such thing!"

"What are you talking about?! I saw you!!" Jasper yelled.

"Mr. Hale! I am not going to argue with something I did not do!!"

"What the hell?! I saw you staring at her! Just admit it!!"

"I didn't!! Are you sure you're not the one that got a little too drunk last night?!?"

"Guys," I said. "Guys!" I said louder, but they kept arguing. "GUYS!!" I screamed. They jumped back and stared at me. "Can you just hit us with detention?! I have to get to gym with Em and Edward."

"Right," the teacher said as Jazz still glared. "Detention for three days. Tomorrow, Thursday, and Friday. Dismissed."

We walked out and Jazz sighed, still tense. "Who did he think he was staring at her like that?!" he yelled frustrated.

"I don't know, dude. He's like fifty years older than Rose," I tried to joke with him, to no avail.

"Yeah. See you," he muttered at he walked into his class and I walked off to gym.

I reached there and the whole class stopped doing stretches and looked at me.

"Ms. Swan, care to explain why you are late?" Coach Clapp asked.

"Mr. What's His Face in Trig held me for a while to tell me and Jazz we got detention," I said, my eyes roaming over to where Em and Edward were trying not to laugh.

"I don't believe you," Coach said, angered.

"Well then go ask him. He'll probably tell you that him and Jazz had a fight because he was looking at Rose's chest too long and made us even more late," I said. I looked at Em and he looked furious, but also humorous (I cant remember a certain word) that Jazz got in a fight with the teacher.

Coach looked at me disbelievingly. "Go sit on the bleachers. You can stretch when they run and you can come back in later and stay after class and finish running."

I groaned. "Great. I'm late for gym, now I'm gunna be late for detention?!" I asked to myself loud enough for everyone to hear. They all sniggered. (Okay, well I don't know about detention, cuz ive never gotten it but I think you have it right after your last class or something. I don't know)

They stopped stretching and ran while I stretched fast. I caught up with everybody outside. All we had to do was run one lap?? Easy.

I waited until I caught up with Em and Edward jogging. I ran to them and gave them a smile, but I gave Edward a warmer one. He smiled back with his crooked grin and I was dazed for a second until somebody tripped me. Edward caught me easily and we turned to glare at a smiling Lauren.

"What the hell Lauren?" I asked angrily.

"Oops, my bad," she said. She didn't mean it by the mocking smile on her face. "Hey Edward," she said in a way that I guess it was supposed to sound seductive, but she sounded like a dieing cat.

He just looked at her without a single expression on his face, but his eyes showed anger. "Hi," he said bitterly.

"I heard you have a secret crush at school. I know it's me," she said leaning forward while Edward leaned back.

"No, it's not. And how did you find out?" he asked looking at me.

"I didn't tell anybody, I swear. I only told Jazz, but he wouldn't tell," I said sincerely.

"Well then, how did you find out?" he asked.

"I overheard your conversation. You know, Bella, you talk loud," she said, giving me daggers.

"Overheard? I think more of stalking Edward and spying on our conversation," I spat at her. She blushed a bit and she knew she was caught.

"Did not!!" she yelled back.

"Did too you little-,"

"Come on Bells she's not worth it," Edward soothed, and we ran further.

"Sorry what happened," Edward said softly.

"It wasn't your fault. She's just so self centered she thinks every guy likes her. But I know you are better than her," I said.

He smiled at me and I almost stopped breathing. "Thanks Bells. You truly are a great girl- I mean a great friend."

Was he about to say girlfriend? No. He was probably about to just say girl. Or something like girl buddy or something stupid. He couldn't think of me nothing more than just a friend. Even if he did say girlfriend, it wouldn't mean anything like we were in a relationship or anything…could it? I just decided to brush it off.

"CULLEN! SWAN! OVER HERE!" Coach yelled. We sighed and ran over.

"Yeah, Coach?" Edward asked.

"What did you do to Lauren?" he asked angrily.

"Nothing," I answered honestly. "She tried to trip me and then the just ignored me then she started to flirt with Edward."

Edward looked at me and continued. "Then Lauren thought I liked her and I asked her how she knew. She lied and told me that she just overheard the conversation Bella and I had earlier today about me liking B- I mean somebody… Then Bella told her how she was probably just stalking me and spying on our conversation. Lauren tried to disagree and say she didn't when she obviously did and I told Bella that it wasn't worth fighting with her and we ran off," he finished, taking a big breath.

I almost didn't catch that he almost said a name. The name of who he likes. It starts with a 'B.' Hmm. Like Bella? No. He can't like me. But, who else's name starts with a 'B' like mine? I don't think anybody I know has the B in their name…and earlier he said that I know her…. Strange. Well, he always is that kind of mystery sometimes. I just brushed it off, too.

"I don't believe you," Coach said as he eyed us warily.

"We are telling the truth," Edward begged.

Then something hit me. "Hey, what did Lauren even say?" I asked they both looked at me as if they forgot my presence.

"She said that she accidentally tripped you and that you didn't believe her and you started to fight with her. She said that she argued back out of self defense and only asked out of curiosity who you liked because word travels fast in this town apparently and then you two walked off," she said, defending Lauren.

"Okay, its almost true. What she did was switched everything around to make her sound like she is the better person. We didn't do anything to harm her. She just doesn't like me because I'm Edward's best friend and she likes him. Please Coach, Edward didn't do anything so keep him out of it," I pleaded.

"No, Bella, I'm apart of it. And she's right Coach. We didn't do anything," Edward said.

"I still don't think you guys are telling the truth. Detention. Both of you. Tonight," he said and turned away from us.

Edward sighed and turned away but I held his arm to make him stay. "Coach, I already have detention. For three days and Edward wasn't a part of it. It was between Lauren and I. I'll take an extra day for today and Tuesday for Edward's day, but Edward will not get any days just because Lauren was being mean."

"No Bella. I'll take my day of detention. I was a part of it," Edward said while looking into my brown eyes. I seemed to get lost in his green eyes easily, so I was dazed again.

"Go finish running you two, and Bella, don't forget you have Monday of detention for me," said Coach Clapp.

"Whatever," I said and ran off with Edward beside me.

Edward sighed and we were running to finish the rest of the lap we had.

"Great. Late for detention. This is all Lauren's fault. I wish she would stop playing her stupid childish games. Its making me frustrated," I whined.

"Its okay Bella. Honestly. It is Lauren's fault and I'm angry, too, but we can get through her and her stupid little games," he picked up my hand and held it tight, "together."

I was shocked he was holding my hand, but I was also happy and I felt something in the pit of my stomach. Love. It's not just some stupid little crush I had on him. I loved him. I love Edward Cullen. Wow. I cant believe it. How was I so stupid? I knew it all along and I never…I never did anything about it. But did he love me? I can't be sure. I don't think so.

We were finished with our run and he was still holding my hand. I looked down at it and he did the same. He pulled away and started to stutter. "Oh, uh, I'm, err, uh, I'm s-sorry, I didn't mean…"

I giggled at him. "It's okay Edward. Really." I gave him a big smile.

He breathed a sigh of relief and we stood there just staring into each other's eyes. I don't know for how long, but somebody came looking for us.

"Bella! Edward! Let's go! Bells we still got detention!" Jasper yelled from up the hill.

Edward chuckled and held out his hand which I took eagerly and we headed up the hill. Jazz looked at our entwined hands and back at us with a confused expression on his face. I shook my head at him and giggled. "Jazz, all three of us have detention now. Lauren was being childish," I said, remembering our conversation. He said we should get through it…together. I didn't miss the double meaning in that one word.

Jazz snorted. "Figures Lauren would do that. But are you two…" he trailed off, looking at our entwined hands.

I shook my head and took my hand out of his. His face turned into a pout and I put my hand back into his and his face lightened up. I smiled at him and he smiled back.

Jazz cleared his throat. "Uh, we have detention, and so does Em by the way."

I sighed and rolled my eyes. "What did he do this time?"

He smiled and laughed. "He blew up on the Trig teach."

Edward and I laughed with him and we walked to the Trig room, where detention is usually held.

"So what did you do again? More detailed though," Edward said more specifically to me.

I laughed at the memory and Jazz joined in. I told him everything that happened from Jazz and Rose's argument to me breaking up the guys from their fight. Edward was almost in tears because he was laughing so hard.

Jazz groaned. "Crap. We're late. I don't want anymore of that damn teachers crap because he stared at her. He won't accept it!!"

I punched him playfully in the arm. "Quit being such a girl."

He rubbed his arm and mumbled, "You're one to talk."

"Last time I checked, I was a girl," I said to him. Edward laughed at us two bickering.

"Wow, Ed, you seem really happy," Jazz teased as we opened the door.

All of our smiles faded as we looked into the room. Then we bust into laughter.

I'm sorry it's so long. I just really loved writing it. This is probably the only story I liked writing of mine. Please review.!!
