College Life: A Twilight Romance

Bella Swan was driving down the sunny streets in Florida. She was attending her first day in college. She wanted to finish her education. But, unfortunately, she felt rather lonely. She wasn't worrying about leaving her father, Charlie, in Forks, but it was the fact that she didn't have many friends that she could talk to. Of course, there were Jessica and Angela and Mike, but they haven't called.

She wondered about what was going to be in store for her. With a shy, clumsy girl like herself, she doubted making friends at all. She never experianced romance, which was odd. Apparently, "everyone" experianced romance, hooked up, got drunk and high, and abused drugs. To be honest, it was only a few people at Forks High School got into drugs while the rest hooked up.
Not Bella.

As these deep thoughts entered her head, Bella grabbed her stuff from her trunk, and walked in the lobby.

She was braced for an outburst of chatting or screaming, but nothing came. The only sounds in the room were flips of pages, murmers on phones, and ragged breathing. So everyone's a little nervous...

"Um, excuse me..." Bella said in her soft voice as she reached the counter. There was a man behind it. He was tall, pale, and his black hair looked like there was too much grease in it.

"Yes?" Said the man.

"I'm Isabella Swan and um..." She gulped, her throat already dry. "I was accepted and um..." She struggled with the words.

"Ah...Miss..." The man had a British Accent. "Swan, yes." He handed her her key. "Floor 5 R113."

"Thank you."

"And...you'll be sharing a room. Two roommates."

"Um...okay?" Bella was confused as she took the elevator. Who's my roomate? she thought. I never recalled HAVING one in the first place...nor wanting one...

She put her stuff down and fiddled with her keys. When she got the door open, she dropped her keys. Sighing, she bent down, picked up her keys and her stuff, and walked in. The dormroom looked spacious. It had bright contrasts. There was a white marble kitchen, white walls, and many clear objects, such as tables, etc., that looked really expensive. The den was visible from the kitchen. In the den walls, there was a huge window with a beautiful view of the city.

"Wow." Bella muttered, walking over to look through it. She saw a handle and realized that it was a door, and opened it to step out in the balcony. "Mom was right. This is really nice..."

"I agree." Came a light, feminine voice.

Bella, slightly startled, turned around and walked back inside. A girl stood there; everything about her was small and pixie-like, though she was just as tall as Bella was. She had short, spikey hair, green eyes, and a nice smile.

"Hi, I'm Alice." Said the girl, holding out her hand. "Alice Brandon."

"Hi, Alice. I'm Bella." Bella shook her hand. "Bella Swan. The new roommate."

"I see that." Alice smiled. "Want me to help you with your stuff? Your bed is already set for you."

"Sure. Thanks."

Alice grabbed half as Bella grabbed the other half. They walked into the nearest room. Bella's eye caught the bed that was in the corner.

"Hey, Rose." Said Alice, putting Bella's stuff down on Bella's bed. "This is Bella. Our roommate."

Bella looked at the girl who sat on the bed nearest them. She had blonde hair that cascaded down her back, brown eyes, and, in Bella's definition, a perfect figure. She had been putting on eyeliner when Alice notified her, and she put her stuff down to greet Bella.

"Hi, Bella." She said, shaking her hand. "I'm Rosalie. Rosalie Hale, nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you too." Bella smiled a little. She started to unpack her stuff. "So have you two been here long?"

"For about an hour." Said Rosalie, resuming to her makeup. "The guy at the front desk said that we would be roomed with you. Alice thought it was perfect." She rolled her eyes.

"Perfect how?"

"Well, our boyfriends attend this same college." Said Alice.

"Boyfriends?" Bella asked, feeling self-conscious.

"Yes, Jasper and Emmett. You see, Jasper and Emmett have another friend, named Edward. He's handsome, you know-charming and shy."

"And single." Rosalie added.

"Really?" Bella asked, now suddenly curious. "Will I get to meet him?"

"Of course." Said Alice brightly. "We're going out to lunch with them, including Edward." She smiled. "You're coming too."

Bella looked down at her brown camisole, jeans, and plain sneakers. "I am?"

"Of course you are." Said Rosalie. "It's kind of like..." She paused to think before looking at Bella. "a 'welcoming to the group' thing."

"We'll be leaving in a few minutes." Said Alice as Bella pulled her white cell phone out of her pocket.

"Well..." Bella bit her lip, her voice quiet. "I guess I could use a boyfriend. But just to be clear, I'm not...I'm not much of a flirty type of girl."

"Neither is he." Said Alice and Rosalie.
