Summary: Bella is transferred from England to California to a Performing Arts boarding school. She wants to fit in so she hides some of her life from her new friends. What will Bella think of the playboy Edward Cullen? All Human.
Disclaimer – I do not own Twilight. Not one bit!
"Good morning, this is your pilot speaking, we will be landing in California the next ten minutes and I hope you all had a pleasant flight". The seatbelt light beamed on and the flight attendants starting their rounds.
Isabella Swan is my name but I prefer Bella. I'm 18 and I lived in England most of my life but now my parents have decided to send me off to boarding school in California so that means I might actually be able to get a tan. However this isn't a normal boarding school that I'll be going to, it's a performing arts school. While in England I attended a very expensive arts school cause apparently I have "amazing talent". I am best known for my singing ability but I have other talents too but I mainly focus on singing. The reason I'm moving to California is that my teachers think I could do much better over there than I can do here. Or they are just crap at their jobs. I'm nervous about moving as I don't know what people will think about me. Probably Oh look another stuck up British kid. I am not looking forward to that; I already had a hard time with the kids back at my old school.
Within the next half hour I had arrived at the airport, grabbed my luggage and was now heading to storage. When first stepped out of the airport I could feel the obvious heat change and the hustle and bustle that is the airport. I walked towards the storage claim but had to weave in and out of people. Finally when I opened the door the air conditioned air hit my face instantly cooling me down.
"Good Morning." An average aged woman nodded at me.
"Morning, I'm here to pick up a car, under the name Isabella Swan."
"Ah yes, the Koenigsegg CCX, that car has made all the guys here go a bit crazy." The woman laughed.
"It usually has that effect." I answered while I signed the piece of paper she put in front of me. When I pushed it back towards her she stood up and asked me to follow her. She grabbed my keys from a board behind the counter and passed them towards me. I followed her through some corridors until I came to a car park of some sorts. I saw my gorgeous sports car a couple of rows away. The woman walked down with me and stood beside the car while I checked that everything is in order.
"Perfect, thank you" I nodded to the woman as I pressed the unlock button, she nodded and wished me a good day and walked back to the corridor we came through. I tossed all of my belongings into the back of the car before I climbed into the drivers' seat and took a deep breath. I missed this car while I was still in England, it was sent here before me so I could use it while here rather than buying a new car. I put the key into the ignition and heard the engine purr to life. Rihanna's CD that I had in my car started up again as I moved out of the parking lot after setting up my location on my SatNav.

I pulled up to some red lights when a car next to me beeped. I turned my head to the side to see a group of guys sat with their roof down checking out my car.
"Yo, Dude, race you to the next set of lights!" The driver shouted at my car. Typical that he thinks I'm a dude, I guess I'll just have to show them. I revved up my car and once the lights turned I was off down the road with them on my tail. You could hear the passengers of the car shouting at the driver to go faster. I soon arrived at the other set of traffic lights that were red and saw them pull up beside me.
"He must be a racer of something." Oh how wrong you are. I thought. I quickly applied some lip-gloss and decided to be daring and lowered my window. I could see them all moving forward to see who the driver was. Once it was fully lowered they were sat there looking at me jaw slacked.
"How does it feel to be beaten by a girl?" I asked innocently.
"Shit man, a girl beat you!" One of the guys shouted.
"That isn't your car is it little girl?" The driver asked.
"Oh it is, I better get going, see you boys around." I gave them a wink and drove away and couldn't help but giggle to myself. Soon enough I was pulling into the school grounds. Everything is so much bigger here. I noticed that there were only a few students wondering around which meant that classes were in session. I pulled my car into a spare space and stepped out into the sun. I looked around the area before leaning back into my car to grab my sun glasses. Once I pulled them on I finally headed towards a bright white building with "Main Office" written above the door. I pushed the door open and headed towards the main desk where a mild age woman was sat typing away at her computer.
"Hi, I'm Isabella Swan" I said while leaning slightly over the counter to the woman.
"Oh hello Isabella, I'm Miss Cope, Welcome to CPA" She said with such enthusiasm I thought she was going to fall off her chair.
"Please call me Bella"
"Of course, so I need you to sign and fill in these forms, here is a map to the school and also all the available places for you to stay, most of them are dorms but some apartments are in their as well." I nodded and took all the papers with me and sat a spare table that was by the wall. After I finished filling out the forms I finally had a glance at the available places. Miss Cope was right about it being mostly dorms as I only found three apartments.
3 Bedrooms, 2 Bathrooms, Kitchen/living room
Girl wanted 2 Female Occupants $90 a week
4 Bedrooms, 2 Bathrooms, Kitchen, Living area
2 Girls wanted 2 Male Occupants. $125 a week
3 Bedrooms, 3 Bathrooms, Kitchen, Living Area, Dining Area, Roof top garden
Girl wanted, 2 Female Occupants $200 a week.
Out of the three I found it seemed that the last one was the only one that would reach my standards. I quickly grabbed my forms and headed back towards Miss Cope.
"Here you go Miss Cope." I handed her the forms that she needed.
"Thank you dear, Okay so I need you to look at this booklet and pick out the classes you want to do and then you can come in tomorrow to tell me what you have chosen ready for Monday, okay?" I flipped through the booklet she handed and nodded.
"Oh Miss Cope, I was wondering if you knew if this apartment was still available?" I pointed the one I had chosen and Miss Cope instantly started nodding.
"Yes, that is still available, the two girls that live there are Alice and Rosalie, you should get on well with them. Here is the address and I shall see you tomorrow. If you have any trouble with the girls just come back here and I'll give you a dorm." She smiled and I big her farewell. I walked back out into the sunshine; just as I pulled my sunglasses down I noticed that my car had caused quite a crowd. I sighed and shook my head, it always seemed to do this, I know I should get a car that blends in but it's my dream car and therefore I should be allowed it. I carried on walking closer to the car when until I could hear what people were saying.
"It's one of the world's most expensive cars, I wonder who owns it?"
"Look at how streamline it is, I really want to touch it." I finally heard another and pressed the unlock button causing everyone to look around trying to find the owner. Only one person could see me and they stood there with their jaw slack.
"You own THIS?" He pointed from me to the car. His little outburst caused more people to turn and look, many followed by gasps. What's wrong with a girl owning an expensive sports car? I almost shouted but held myself back.
"Yeah, she's a beauty don't you think?" I smiled and walked past him. The group of guys spilt away leaving enough room for me to get past. "Thank you for admiring my car by the way, I'll see you all around." I smiled and climbed into the drivers' seat and started her up. When I finally pulled away I looked into my review mirror and laughed as all the guys were still standing there watching my car leave. I shook my head and finally headed to the apartment I wanted to live at.
When I pulled up to the address I had to do a double take as this could not be classed as an apartment. It was more of a house, it was two stories tall with white washed walls with beach wood frames and a small front garden filled with a range of flowers. I finally stepped out of the car and walked up the small pathway. When I arrived at the door I took a deep breath and knocked. No one answered straight away but just as I was about to knock a second time the door flew open and standing in its place was a girl that could easily be mistaken for a model. She was a very obvious beauty, with her long blonde hair, her striking blue eyes and not to mention her height, she easily beat my 5ft 6".
"Yes?" Oh and she's extremely rude so I'm going to guess she is Rosalie. Her attitude finally knocked some sense into me.
"Hi, I'm Bella, I'm new here and looking for an apartment and saw this one so I thought I would come check it out, if that's alright with you?" I was giving her back as much as she was giving me. However my answer seemed to surprise her as she raised a perfectly shaped eye brow at me.
She was about to say something back when she was cut off by a squeal and pushed to the side. She glared down at the girl who pushed her aside however the other girl took no notice as she was staring at me. This other girl, Alice I'm guessing, was very petite but had a subtle beauty unlike Rosalie. She had short black hair that was flicked out in all directions and kind of looked like a pixie. She was slightly bouncing on the balls of her feet which showed me that she was just full of energy.
"Hi, I'm Alice," She stuck her hand out for me to shake, "and this is Rosalie but ignore her as she is just grumpy as she has had any in two days." Alice rambled causing me to laugh but soon stopped when Rosalie glared at me but then stopped when Alice nudged her in the ribs.
"Come in, Come in, I love you accent by the way." Alice grabbed my hand and pulled me into the house.
"Oh thank you." My blush soon appeared across my cheeks as no one has every complimented me on my accent before.
"Okay so let me show you around and then we can chat." She gave me the tour of the whole house. She started off with the living room which was very big and housed two settees, a coffee table, a bookshelf and a massive TV and other gadgets. She then led me into the kitchen and I fell in love. It was also big, a pale yellow with an off white marble tops. A breakfast bar, a double fridge, a double cooker just everything anyone needs to make a fabulous meal. I dragged my hand across the work top.
"Do you cook Bella?" Alice asked while leaning against the door frame watching me admire the kitchen.
"Yeah, I used to cook a lot at home." I smiled and Alice joined me.
"Good, cause we are utterly crap," I laughed while she grabbed my hand and showed me the rest of the house, "and this is going to be your room." She commented and opened the door to reveal the bedroom that could be possibly mine. My mouth dropped open as I took in my surroundings, the walls were a baby blue and the carpet was white. In the centre wall sat a large king-size bed, next to it was bedside tables. Around the room there was random furniture jotted around including a desk, bookcase, a sofa and my wardrobe.
"What's through that door?" I asked as I started to walk over to it, Alice didn't answer but opened the door for me and inside was my own bathroom. It's colours were exactly the same as my bed room. This place just seems to be perfect.
"Come on lets go talk." She grabbed my hand and walked back towards the living area where Rosalie was sat watching TV which Alice then turned off and placed me on the other sofa.
"So Bella, tell us about yourself." Such a simple question that is hard to answer.
"Well, I'm 18, I just got here from England, I've lived there all of my life until now. I went to a performing arts school there as well, but I moved here as my parents and old teachers thought I would learn more here than I did there. I uh, I'm a Libra; I'm trying to be more out there as I usually stay inside my shell. Could take a while though." I smiled at them both.
"We'll help, we're good like that!" Alice bounced from her seat to tackle me causing me to laugh. It was then that I saw Rosalie move forward.
"Can you even afford a place like this?" She sneered.
"Oh purlease darling, I wouldn't be here if I couldn't." This caused Alice to fall into a fit of giggles and I saw Rosalie give a small smile.
"I like her Ali" She commented as she leaned back into the sofa.
"Me too." She squeezed my shoulders.
"Me three." This statement caused all of us into more fits of laughter but once we all calmed down Alice offered me the spare room which I gladly accepted. It was then that I started moving all of my belongings into my new room with the help of my new roommates.
"Fancy Chinese?" Rosalie asked while putting my last item of clothing into my chest of draws.
"Please, I'm starving." With that Rosalie went to order Chinese and half an hour later we were sat on the sofa swapping stories and basically hanging out.
"Bella, do you mind if I call you B?" Alice asked as she tucked into her box.
"Any reason to why?"
"Just easier to say, like Jasper is Jazz or J, Emmett is Em, Edward is E, Rosalie is Rose and I go by Alice or Ali." Alice said while counting off of her fingers.
"And they asked?" I asked as I leaned further back into the sofa.
"Oh god, we forgot to tell you." Rose smack herself in the head.
"You'll meet them on Monday. But Emmett is Rose's boyfriend and Jasper is mine." I just nodded.
"However, Jasper is my twin brother, Emmett is Alice's older brother but Edward is her twin." Rosalie added.
"But don't get involved with E, however much I love him he is complete ass." I snickered at that.
"So its like two families coming together as one?" I concluded.
"Exactly!" Alice stated while pointing her chopsticks into the air.
"So tell me about them."
"I'll start, Okay, so Emmett is basically all muscle which is a good thing," Rose winked causing me to giggle, "He is a band with J and E, he looks intimidating but he's just a big bear really, until you get him into bed." This caused Alice to gag.
"You really don't want to hear them." She then again started to fake gag.
"Shut up Alice, your just as bad, I've seen you and I really don't like looking at my brothers naked ass." This caused me to break out into hysterical laughter causing the girls to join in.
"Anyway moving onto Jasper, he's sweet, he is totally calm all the time so he's my ying to my yang," She smiled with a distance look in her eyes, "He's tall like Rose, short blonde hair, a different shade of blue for his eyes though and he's my soul mate." She finished while leaning back and sighing. I looked over to Rose who just shook her head.
"And what about Edward?"
"I'd rather not discuss him" Alice muttered and Rose nodded. I just looked between the both of them feeling like I was missing out on something. We soon all said our goodnights and I climbed into my new bed, instantly sinking deep down into the soft sheets. The day was finally catching up with me and I drifted off into sleep.
