Chapter 2

High School

Pamela didn’t turn out to be much of a chatterbox, to which I’m thankful for, but she was really good at keeping the conversation going with just a few or no words. Unlike what I first thought, she happened to be older than me, and I have to admit I felt kind of proud that I was three inches taller than her. "I get it from my dad, my moms way taller than him," she’d said. I would have responded with something about where I got what from which parent, but that normally only applied to those who knew

I have second period her, as well as fifth, it was obvious someone up there wanted us to be good friends.

Second period was just Physics, I’d never been good at science but it was worse to even try and concentrate today. All of the glances and muttered words were distraction me worse than the teachers high nasally voice. Apparently my arrival had just reached the top of the things-to-gossip-about list. It wasn’t only my name being tossed around though, I heard a lot out of everyone about Andrew Cullen.

There was no Pamela to pull me through during third period calculus, she was taking Algebra II, and so I had to fend for myself here. Unfortunately this Mr. Yorkie guy had me stand in front of the class and formally introduce myself. My name, or rather my last name, sparked both his and the classes attention. Figures I’d meet one of Mike’s old friends or what ever he was. With a town as small as Forks it must have been really hard to turn a corner and not meet someone you’ve known practically your whole life.

"I was wondering what class I’d have you in," said a boy behind the seat I was assigned, chuckling under his breath. He wasn’t the typical boy either; he seemed the stand out-ish type.

Dark black hair was streaked through with purple and orange, and light brown eyes were more towards hazel giving him a very multicolored persona. I have to admit this just made me grin, in turn it made him do so as well; I was kind of surprised not to see his white teeth weren’t something different like the rest of him.
