This chapter is still a continuation of the year in Bella's life which started in chapter 9.
Beginning with this chapter, we will have a little EPOV at the end, usually in the form song lyrics.

Chapter 11
-Spring-Bella, age 16 years…
The closer it got to spring break, the more anxious I felt. I wasn't sure exactly why.
Well, I had a suspicion.
Even though it was almost April, there was still a chill in the air; and as I sat on the porch, I clutched my cup of hot cocoa for warmth. Next week was spring break and I had a whole week off of school, the entirety of which I would be spendin' with Edward and his family.
I thought back to the last time I was in Pennsylvania and swallowed hard when I remembered havin' sex for the first time.
The only time...
I shook my head in an effort to clear those thoughts away.
I had returned from that visit, a nervous wreck. My attention wandered in class, I burned more than one dinner because I was distracted and not payin' attention, and I didn't finish a single conversation with my Daddy because I couldn't stand to be in his company for long. The guilt of what I'd done was almost cripplin'; and all I could think of as I looked at his face, was how he would react to news that his sixteen year old daughter might be pregnant.
In the end, I think he chalked my odd behavior up to havin' spent a very emotional and distressin' Christmas with the Cullens.
Eight days.
From the time my plane touched down in Richmond, until I finally got my period, I had to live through eight long, miserable days.
Durin' that time, Edward phoned me every mornin' and every night before I went to bed. He told me over and over how much he loved me; reassurin' me that everythin' would be okay.
