I can't believe it. I'm done with junior year. This is my last year of high school.

I open my window, and breathe in the air of Forks. I look out, and the scenery is beautiful; trees, mountains, it almost looks untouched by civilation until you see the houses.

Although it's beautiful, the weather is terrible. I smell humidity mixed with the mustiness of the forest.

"Bella!"

I looked down and saw my best friend, Alice Cullen, in her car. This girl... she's a handful. She has spikey hair and piercing green eyes. Her skin is pale due to the lack of sun in Forks.

My Dad and my step-Mom are best friends with her parents. So ever since I can remember, I spent my time with the Cullen family.

"Bella! Get down here! And put on your bathing suit! We opened up the pool!" she shrieked excitedly.

I snorted. Alice and I were complete opposites. She was a beautiful, preppy, up-beat, shopping girl. And I... well, I'm a tom-boy. I don't dress up. I have dark, brown, mud colored hair with matching eyes. I wear my glasses on a daily basis. The only thing I really do is read. I do gymnastics on the side to keep the in shape, but only Alice, her parents, and my parents really know. I hide my body behind baggy shirts and skinny jeans during school, but I sort of let go in the summer.

"Hold on!" I said loud enough for Alice to hear.

I ran and changed into my deep blue bathing suit, and put on my Pink Floyd shirt and ripped skinny jeans. I put my contacts in and figured my hair was unfixable, so I tied it in a bun.

I went downstairs and grabbed my keys and yelled to my dad in the kitchen, "I'm going to Alice's!" before closing the door.

I ran to her car. She was listening to the radio, and was startled when I got in.

"Hey Alice." I said smirking.

"BELLA!" I heard shriek from behind me.

I screamed, turning around- seeing the beautiful Rosalie Hale-Cullen.

Rosalie is 22, she had a long time relationship with Alice's older brother, Emmett. They got engaged last year, and their wedding is the end of this summer. She has beautiful long hair and blue eyes that you would expect an ocean to look like.

I screamed and I hugged her. Rosalie is spokesperson for starving families in Africa, and I haven't seen her in months.

We drove to the Cullen's house. It's short drive drive, only a 15 minute walk into the woods. It was deep in the forest. I saw deers running and eating as we drove by. They looked so calm and playful.

We soon got to a paved road leading to a driveway. She parked in the garage, along with 6 other cars.

Her family was rich; Carlisle, her father, was a respected doctor in Forks Hospital; Esme, her mother, one of the best interior designers (and home cook) on the West Coast. They're actually pretty well-known, so the chose the forest as a sort of get-away.

I walked in, and before I walked in I smelt the inviting cinammon-apple scent of the house.

"Bella! Rose and I are gonna go in the back. Can you get the snacks in the kitchen! That actually wasn't a question. Get the snacks!" She giggled before running towards the back of the house.

I grunted. I really hated doing things around the house.

I turned the corner and went into the kitchen, hitting my foot into the wall and tripping. I waited for the impact of the floor, when I felt two strong arms around my waist. I felt my stomach drop, and as expected I looked up into a pair a cocky deep green eyes with dark auburn hair.

He scoffed, and looked my dead in the eye.

"Nice going, Swan."

Ah, the infamous, player, cocky, Edward Anthony Cullen. Forgot about that one.
