"When are you getting a car?" Bella asks me as she drives us to school in the new red truck that makes a lot of noise.

"Soon" my compact mirror to finish adding my makeup, Bella didn't want to wait like always so here I am applying a light layer of lip gloss.

First day at a new school in the middle of the semester, great. Note the sarcasm in my voice. I am betting just like Bella, she hates it. Starting school in the middle of the semester. Bella, I notice she's all covered up like always in bland tight clothing underneath that oversized brown coat. Everyone will see how she has a bland personality. I don't care what people think about me and how I'm dark and depressing. My clothes scream that. I'm wearing black warm leggings, there is this fuzzy part on the inside that keeps the bottom half of me warm while the top half I'm wearing ripped long sleeved black top. To help keep my warm, k have a black jacket on. Because of the puddles everywhere and that I am very use to wearing heels, I'm wearing black high knee boots and lastly I'm wearing a black beanie. Where Bella isn't wearing any makeup that shows off her features, I'm wearing black eyeshadow and black lipstick. My whole attire screams "If you don't want to die, don't talk to me!"

"Did you" Bella asks me "have to wear something so...depressing and what is with the disgusting makeup?"

"Excuse you?" I demand looking at her "your one to talk, your whole attire screams 'Blah! Look at me and my bland personality!' At least mine says that I don't like to be pissed off!"

"Yours screams" Bella yells "that you kill people or a suicidal person!"

"This may shock you" I say "but sometimes people don't care what they look like, I don't care what people say about me and my clothing!"

"I do!" She yells

"Why?"

"Because it reflects badly on me!" She snaps

"Oh! That is rich!" Clapping my hands to her "Here is the perfectly bland bitch Bella herself! You know what? Let's stop talking to one another!"

"Agreed!" I look out the window as we both sigh harshly. Bella makes you want to kill her, she has that about her. She's just naturally good at wanting people to hate her.

Once we arrive at school, Bella parks near the school but when she does the truck makes a farting noise having people I notice laugh at the noise. Bella blushes with embarrassment while I get out of the truck, grab my black backpack and slam the truck door shut before heading inside with a pissed off mood. Thanks a lot Bella! I am pissed off!

Once I'm in the front office, the old lady behind the counter looks up at me and I see her gulp with how pissed off I am "Helena Swan" she nods her head giving me some sheets of paper.

"You" holding the small sheet with signatures "need this signed by all your teachers then bring it back to me, this is the timetable and locker is right there. Your books are already in your locker" taking the sheets, I leave barely missing Bella who stumbles coming in. Should have hit her, should have.

As I go to my locker, I'm silent only to jump startled when a boy near my age with black hair, brown eyes and Asian features smiles to me "Hi, I'm Eric. Your Helena Swan the new girl, hi" he already said hi and he's saying hi to me first before my sister? Unless he already saw her "as I said I'm Eric, the eyes and ears of this place. Anything you need—your guide, lunch date, shoulder to cry on" raising my eyebrow at him.

"Hela"

"Like the Norse goddess?" He asks

Nodding my head "Not many people know that"

"We have a mythology club here" Eric tells me, really?

"Really? When do you guys meet up?" I ask "also what other clubs do you have here?" Closing my locker to head to my first class "also the buildings? Could you help me to my first class?"

"Sure" he takes my timetable "lucky for you" he hands it back to me "I also have history for first hour. For clubs have" he tells me as we walk to History "a Book slash Writing Club put into one, Photography Club, Art Club, we have the school newspaper—I'm the editor of that so you and your sister front page"

"No, no I'm not" we hear someone stutter, looking over I notice Bella. When did she appear? "I don't...the attention" Ha! If Bella hates the attention then why does she bring so much to her? I swear she might be a virgin where sex is concerned but she's an attention seeking whore.

"Eric this is Bella" introducing them "my sister"

"Oh!" He nods his head "the other Swan" I resist the urge to laugh "also Hela, love the dark vibe your bringing off. The whole don't piss me off thing? Really cool"

"Thanks" I say "also can you not put me in the news headline, please. I feel like with how Bella and I are the newcomers it's just" shaking my head, I can't believe I'm talking so much.

"Sure" nodding his head "no newspaper...we also have Volleyball, Football, Basketball, Gaming Club...and the environmental club"

~Lunch~

"You sure you don't want to eat with the others?" Eric asks me

"Maybe on Monday" I tell him "with how friendly everyone has been I need some time to myself" also I'm normally eat with a few of my friends in silence and I have a feeling Bella will be at the same table as Eric and his friends and I need some time away from her.

He nods his head "Understood" I go to an empty table, pull out a book and put my earbuds in before listening to some music as I eat and read. Thank god I'm by myself, I can't handle all this attention. Like I said, Bella may love it but I don't.

As I'm eating, I notice some people sit down but I don't pay any mind to them since when you don't look up or say anything then people get the idea and fuck off.

Once I'm done, I get up with my empty tray and throw the food away and set the tray aside before going back to grab my bag not looking up from the book. Turning a page, I see I finished chapter ten in Anna Dressed in Blood.

Just as I was leaving I'm stopped by Eric "Hey"

"Hi" taking the earbud out

"What did they say?" He asks excitedly

"Who?" Shaking my head, he nods and I look over at the pale white people who are looking our way. Three people with dark hair and two blondes. A beautiful blonde with long hair next to the large guy with huge muscles, a dark haired girl with pixie cut hair who is next to the curly blonde who looks to be in pain, and lastly a guy with dark hair. All of them have golden eyes, must be siblings or something like that. The one with pixie cut hair stiffens looking at me along with the one guy who looks at her then to me.

"The Cullens" Eric says, I look at him "did you not talk to them?"

"Should I?" I ask "I just wanted to eat and" waving my book in the air.

"Since your done" he says "want to meet my friends? Your sister is there already" before I say anything, he pushes me towards his friends who look at me.

"Oh my god!" A girl with rosy pale skin, light brown eyes and light brown hair looks at me excitedly "What happened? How did the Cullens react to you eating at their table?"

"Didn't talk to them" I say as Eric motions to a chair next to Bella, I sit down trying to keep what I want to say to myself "and what's the big deal about them?"

"Your kidding, right?" A girl with pale skin, light blonde hair and dark eyes look at me.

(Lauren)

"Hela this is Lauren, Jessica and Angela" the third girl with black hair, brown eyes, and light skin with Hispanic features and she's wearing glasses "girls this is Hela"

"Like the Norse goddess?" Angela asks

I nod my head "When does the mythology club meet?"

"Once a week" Lauren tells me "today after school, are you joining?" I nod my head.

"Back to the Cullens" Jessica says "you really didn't talk to them?" I shake my head no.

"Again, what's the big deal?"

"Look at them" Lauren says, I do and as I do I notice that they all have golden eyes like I said and look hotter than the average person. Like models, especially the blonde girl "oh my god" looking at Lauren "you really don't"

"Their Dr. and Mrs. Cullens foster children" Angela tells me "they keep to themselves, so you sitting with them is a big deal"

"Okay" mouthing

"Their also all together" Jessica says all giddy, gossip girl she is. Kill list. "Like together together, the blonde girl that's Rosalie and she's with the big guy Emmett, their seniors. Jasper is the one who looks to be in pain all the time and he's with Alice, the dark haired girl—she's really weird"

"Define weird" I say

"She's always happy" Lauren tells me "and giddy" oh dear god, I sat next to that? I hate people who fake trying to be happy all the time or people who are just happy and don't see the bad or choose not to, I get that they have pain in them but sometimes it's okay to not be happy all the damn time.

"You don't look to be a big fan" Jessica says

"I don't like people who are like that" I say "their always trying to hide and be fakes, sure their trying to not feel pain but even they have to realize that the place isn't rainbows and sunshine. Leave that to the little children"

"I think" Lauren says "I'll end up liking you"
