Okay, so Stephanie Meyer invents these great back stories for all the vampires, but not BELLA! I mean, she wasn't a hermit! She want to school. She's pretty and she's nice, so she must had had some friends! This is the story of when Bella's best friends from Phoenix, Leslie and Izzy, come visit her in Forks.

"Bella!" a familiar voice squealed from the kitchen. No, Bella thought, it couldn't be. But then another voice, just as familiar whispered loudly, "Idiot! It's supposed to be a surprise!"

Bella sprung from her chair and ran to the kitchen. "Leslie!? Izzy!?" She hugged her two best friends hard, almost tripping as she ran to them.

"Same Bella," Leslie said in mock disapproval. Then she grinned. "We've been working-"

"At McDonalds!" Izzy interrupted.

"Yes," Leslie said, rolling her eyes. "At McDonalds. And we finally saved wnough money to come see you!"

"Oh my god!" Bella screamed. "You guys are here!"

"We are!" Izzy and Leslie screamed at the same time.

"And you aren't getting rid of us for a whole week!" Izzy squealed.

Bella grinned. Izzy and Leslie had been her best friends for the longest time. They couldn't be more different, but they brought out the best in each other. Izzy was loud and outgoing. She loved people, and animals and kids and fashion, and was basically a very optimistic person who loved everyone. When they met, they had both gone by Isabella, but quickly became friends, and, to avoid confusion, Bella became Bella, and Izzy became Izzy. Leslie on the other hand kept to herself. She was athletic and had small circle of close friends, Bella and Izzy mainly. Izzy had long black curls and green eyes. She was pale with freckles covering her arms and face. She was wearing a purple tank top and denim mini-skirt. Bella hoped she had brought some more suitable clothes. Izzy looked funny in her clothes. They were designed to make the wearer look sexy, but they just brought out the severely…Pencil-like shape of Izzy's body. Leslie, on the other hand, was curvier and several inches taller. She had long naturally bleach blonde hair and big blue eyes. She was wearing dark jeans and a dark green tee shirt with a tree on it that read, "I'm alive too, don't hurt me!" Bella smiled. Leslie was always the environmentalist.

Though her two friends couldn't be more different from each other, or herself, she couldn't be happier to see them.

Bella turned to Charlie and said, accusingly, "You knew!"

Charlie smiled. "Of course. They are staying at our house. In your room or the living room, by the way. You guys figure that out." With that he walked back into the living room, where some sports game was still playing on the TV.

"Do you guys want to go somewhere?" Bella asked, still in shock.

"Where?" Leslie asked.

"I don't know," Bella answered. "Somewhere!"

Just then, there was a knock on the door. "Crap," Bella said. "I forgot Edward was coming."

"Edward?" Leslie asked, raising her eyebrows, at the same time Izzy said, "Edward?" The difference in Izzy's impressed tone and Leslie's surprised one had to be noted.

Bella ran to the door and opened it. "Wow, Charlie sure didn't think to heavily on that subject. I had no idea they were coming." Then he kissed her.

Leslie and Izzy giggled. Edward had to bite his lip to keep from laughing. Bella wondered what they were thinking.

"We were just thinking about going somewhere," Bella told Edward. She turned to her friends. "Do you guys mind if Edward comes…uh…wherever we're going?"

"That'd be great!" Leslie squealed. Leslie nodded.

"Actually," Edward said, "My sister Alice, uh, heard from Charlie that you were coming, and she, um, has an idea of where you could go, but she wants to come, too. Oh and she said I can't come because it's a girl thing." Edward rolled his eyes.

Bella looked at Leslie and Izzy, who both nodded enthusiastically. "I don't know," Bella said. "Alice has some crazy ideas. We might end up in LA…"

Leslie and Izzy laughed. "I'm not kidding," Bella warned. "But okay, tell Alice that we agree…"
