I know you're Different

Chapter 1: Meeting everyone.

Bella

Let's start with the basics yeah? I'm Isabella, but please call me Bella, Swan. I have long curly brown hair and brown eyes. I'm probably one of the most loud, overbearing, confident and crazy person you'd ever meet. Honestly life is meant to be lived so you might as well live it well. I stand by my motto, "A life lived in fear, is a life half lived'. I'm not scared of anything, I I don't lie either. Living life to the fullest is the best anyone can do; when they try and fail or run and fall the best is to get up, looking hot as hell and do it again. Since the age of around fourteen, when I started to grow curves and mature and all, I've been told by the male population whom I wasn't related to that I was hot. I was skeptical at first, but being told nearly every single day does change the way you think. I also love sports and activities and practically anything fun and new. So anyways enough about me, even though I love it let's get on with where I am.

Mom and dad and I used to live in New York. I loved New York; The lights, the fashion, the gossip, the business. Up until recently it had occurred to me that while I was basking in my own awesome life, that I hadn't noticed that my parents were having marriage problems. Soon they had filed for divorced against each other for the basic reason that they did not love each other anymore, and it was mutual. So my mom, being crazy, erratic and completely screwed though the best idea would be to take me across the country with her all the way to Orange County, California. Oh and just to add to y list of coolness, I am quite sarcastic too.

Anyhow, here I stand in front of my new house in sunny Orange County, marveling its beauty. The house was grand, huge and white with pillars and balconies and fountains everywhere. It took my breath away, and it was just the outside. (A/N: House on profile) Back in New York, my father managed a massive law firm, and kept the money rolling in a lot. So when the divorce settled, my mom got me and a load of cash, as well as her own from being a popular real estate agent. Using that cash she bought a giant mansion here in a reserved, very classy area in Orange County, but let's face it, everywhere in Orange Country is rich and classy.

"Honey, go check out your new room!" My mom called as she paid the cab driver who had driven us here from the airport. I walked in the house. Fuck it was huge. It was all white or cream and nearly everything was marble. I walked up the giant marble stairs stairs and saw a few bedrooms, They all had en suites, but I liked the one that was the biggest with the balcony as well. I smirked as I pictured myself sleeping on the big king size bed.

"Mom!" I called out, my voice echoing throughout the house. "Can I choose any room?" I asked, not stating which room I wanted, and that in fact the one I wanted was biggest. My mom's heels clicked as she walked up the stairs and laughed as she passed me.

"Honey I told you, I don't care." She said with a smile.

"Just making sure." I said sweetly, before running down stairs to grab my bags. I trudged up stairs with them and unpacked them. After a few hours of unpacking and helping my mom direct the delivery guys as to where to place the new furniture I was exhausted, with jet lag catching up with me. I went back to my room after the guys had left and smiled with the final product. Everything was in its place and where it should be and looking fucking sweet. Maybe, I thought, I could paint it one day, the walls which were cream were so boring. My mom and I were really hungry and in no mood to actually cook dinner so I told her to ring up the pizza place. I ran down the stairs and saw my mom already on the phone.

"Oh, could you hold on a sec," She said into the receiver. "Bella," She said looking at me, "Go meet the neighbors, on the left there's the Hale's and on the right there's the Cullen's." She said and went back to talking to the pizza guy. I walked outside to our dead-end street and looked to my left. There better be some fun neighbors, and hopefully no boring old people. I'd try the Hales first. I walked up to the door and knocked on it. A few seconds later the door opened and revealed a short girl, maybe around 4'10'' smiling at me. though she was really short, she looked mature enough and curvy enough to be my age. She had black spiky hair poking out in every direction, and shining silver eyes which complemented her pixie image. her small and sharp features and small physique added to the fact.

"Hello! Are you the new neighbor?" She said preppy. I smiled and nodded.

"Hi and yes I am. I'm Bella." I said placing my hand out in front of me.

"I'm Alice. Where did you move from?" Alice asked as she grabbed my hand it shook it.

"New York." I said and she grinned excitedly.

"Really, I love shopping there when I go on holidays." She squealed. "Hey what school are you going to?" She asked curiously.

"Um….Lake something High." I replied in a bored tone.

"Yay," She squealed. "It's actually Lake Valley High. But that's where I go." She smiled and clapped her hands in happiness.

"Hey so are you Alice Hale?" I asked and she giggled.

"Oh no I'm Alice Cullen; I am just friends with the Hales. Rosalie and Jasper are Hales. They go to our school too, and they're juniors, there twins. And I have two brothers called Edward and Emmett and we are all juniors. But we are all adopted." Alice said rambling on and on.

"Alice who is it?" A voice called. A beautiful girl appeared. She was gorgeous, with long blond hair and pale blue icy eyes, and a curvy and tall stature, maybe 5'9". She smiled, and I swear my ego just went way down. She was strikingly beautiful and no doubt the most prettiest person I'd ever seen.

"Rosalie this is the new neighbor, Bella. She's going to our school and she's a junior too." Alice said unable to contain her excitement.

"Hi Bella." Rosalie said smiling and I felt relieved knowing this girl wasn't a total bitch and hadn't let her looks go to her head.

"Hi Rosalie." I said back with another smile.

"Oh and Rosalie's twin brother, Jasper is here as well." She giggled and then turned around, "JASPER!!!!!!!!!!!" She called. "He's also my boyfriend." She stage whispered. Jasper came to the door and I nodded to Alice in approval of her boyfriend. He was hot, but of course off the market. He was quite tall and lanky standing at around 6'3''. He had sandy blond hair, and bright blue eyes and looked quite like his sister.

"I'm the new neighbor Bella, hi." I said extending my hand towards him.

"Hi Bella." He said as he too shook my hand.

"Well it was nice meeting you all but I'm really tired from the flight and I have to quickly introduce myself to the rest of your family Alice." I said taking a step back from the door and Alice grimaced.

"Oh but they are all out, but I didn't go so that's why I'm here and not home alone being bored. You can meet my brothers at school." She said waving it off.

"Okay Bye." I said. They all said their goodbyes and I walked the few meters to my house. I went inside and decided I wouldn't wait until the pizza guy arrived, I would just go to sleep and when I wake up hungry I'll eat. I ran upstairs, to my bedroom and jumped into bed read for sleep.

------

The next morning I woke up super hungry, like predicted. I ran downstairs and looked in the fridge and ate the left over pizza, which I know is a very bad breakfast. Today was my first day of school and I was excited. Nothing was better than the attention with came with being new, the stares, and practically everything. First impressions were important, so people usually dressed up real nice. Me though, I didn't need too, so I put on my tight ass dark blue Avedon skinny jeans, my superman logo royal and my black converse. I put my hair in a messy ponytail. I really didn't need to do much to get a lot of stares, which can be sometimes annoying. The doorbell rung and knowing that my mom was probably still asleep I went to go get it.

I opened the door and found Alice on the other side smiling wide and happy. I guess she's a morning person."Hey Bella, You need a ride to school?" She asked all perky.

"Well I really wanted to take my Porsche." I said. I saw her face fall slightly. "But you can come with me if you want." I asked and she nodded enthusiastically.

"Sure." She said. "Rosalie and Jasper will go with their car and my brothers can go with their boring old cars, but you have a Porsche." She said. I laughed. We got in my car and I drove while she navigated me on how to get to school. "Here we are." She said. The school was huge, really huge and I was already getting stares. People really need to be more subtly and tone it down, honestly. Smiling, I got out of the car, with grace and grabbed my bag, along with Alice.

"I'm going to the office to get my timetable, I'll meet you at lunch or something." I said to Alice and she nodded absentmindedly as she saw Jasper and Rosalie's car pull up. She has so got it bad for Jasper.

"Okay the office is there." She pointed to one of the buildings. I walked up to the office and got my timetable from one of the receptionists. I quickly glanced over it before shoving it in my pocket.

Period 1: English – Miss Delprat

Period 2: Art – Miss Lola

Period 3: Trig – Mr. Ratcliff

Lunch

Period 4: Italian – Miss Trueman

Period 5: Biology – Mr. Ingrati

Period 6: Gym – Miss Tagg

I headed toward Period 1 English with Miss Delprat. I easily found my way since the buildings were set out simple and nicely. I sat down at a table by myself. Slowly others started coming into the classroom, all but gaping at me. For the first time ever I actually gaped myself...at the gorgeousness of a boy who walked into the classroom. Someone of the girls turned into his direction and sighed in content. His bronze hair shone in the morning light from the California sun, and his bright green eyes glistened. His angular features made him all the more hot and I really couldn't help myself.

A group of guys entered behind him, laughing and talking loudly. One zeroed in on me and quickly snapped his head away and tugged on the hot guys shirt. He pointed at me, and the guy turned to look at me. Way to be subtle...douche. The hot guy smiled a perfect crooked smile and I looked away trying to show no interest. The group of guys then exited the classroom, all together ignoring the glare the teacher gave them as she entered the classroom completely confused as to why they were heading out.

After a few more minutes they came back in and Miss was still sorting through her shit, and preparing today lesson. The hot guy smoothly walked up to me, and I leaned my chin on my hand and my elbow on the table, and blew a piece of my hair out of the way. "Hey beautiful, that is you're name right?," He asked.

"Close," I told him, "Bella." I said simply and he nodded.

"Fuck, I'm psychic," He mused and I rolled my eyes. "Is this seat empty gorgeous?" He asked. Wow, he's so obvious it's not funny, could he be anymore of a player.

"No, but mine will be if you sit there," I said and he looked shocked for a second before fake laughing.

"But then you'd have no where to sit, there aren't anymore seats," He said and I sighed. "If you were a new sandwich at Mcdonalds, you'd be called the McGorgeous," He said before smiling his winning crooked grin. He did not just say that?

"Did you really just say that?" I asked with a hysterical laugh. He looked shocked for a second before continuing.

"Look if you're like nervous or something it's alright," He told me, "I don't mind," He said softly. I furrowed my brows at him. Who the hell does he think he is? "Now, you and me. Dinner. Tonight. Because you+me=fun times," He grinned again and I shook my head.

"How about no? I'm not just anyone you can play," I told him and he shook his head.

"You're really hot you know that?" He asked, "You must turn a few heads," He mused and I laughed.

"You must turn a few stomachs," I smiled innocently and I noticed some of his friends start to laugh.

"You know," He sighed, "If I could re-arrange the alphabet I'd put U and I together," He smirked and I giggled again.

"Really? I'd put F and U." I told him.

"Feisty," He commented. "Can I borrow your phone?" He asked and i looked at him like he was crazy, "I want to tell your mom thank-you." He said. This could not get worse! These had to be the most stupid pick up lines ever.

"I like your approach," And he grinned at me, "Now, let's see your departure," I told him and he grimaced.

"Class!" Miss ordered and then pointed to hot-player-dude, "Back to your seat," She said and he got up unwillingly, the whole while his friends shocked and pissing themselves laughing.
