Hey kiddooooos! Haha :) So this is a new idea I came up with, with my sister (also known as YouandMeareMeanttoBe). I know I haven't updated my other stories recently but I'll get on it ASAP. :D But for now enjoy our new story!
AN: Every chapter will be indicated at the bottom with who wrote it. But also if it says B-POV or A-POV or something with that meaning, I will be writing Bella's and my sister will writing Alice's :) Okay that's it. Get reading
P.S.
We don't own anything but the plot. :) Okay :D
Preface:
I looked around warily. I felt sick.....nauseated.....broken.
"Are you alright?"
I turned towards the voice and found worry all over a face of a person I didn't know.
"Who are you?"
"Jacob, Jacob Black. Who are you?"
"Um..."
I looked down to find out we were sitting on a beach, well me more laying. I don't remember ever lying down on a beach. I tried to remember but nothing came. Absolutely nothing.
"Miss?"
"I don't remember..."
I looked at him expectantly, wanting him to tell me my name. Crazy right?
"You must have hit your head pretty hard when you fell off that cliff..."
"I fell off a cliff??"
"You don't remember falling?"
"How could I remember falling if I don't even remember who I am?"
I started hyperventilating. I can't remember anything.
Who am I? Do I have a family? Why did I fall off that cliff?
So many questions were going through my head I started crying. I pulled at my neck and found a locket. I looked at, not being able to remember anything sucks. I turned it around and found an inscription on the back.
To our Bella,
Love you always and forever,
Mommy and Daddy
Chapter 1: Goodbye Forks, Hello Sunny SoCal!!
I'm gonna miss the simple town full of memories
I'm gonna miss just hanging out with all my friends
The rainy days and summer nights
Skipping stones by the river side

This is what I've been dreaming of
I'll miss you so...
But I must go, go and follow love....
Follow Love - FFH
Bella's POV:
How could this happen?
My name is Isabella Marie Swan. But everyone calls me Bella. Today was the day that me and my sister were moving. Why? Because our mother had just died in a car accident a week ago. I looked over at my sister, Alice, and tried to smile encouragingly. I had to stay strong. WE had to stay strong.
You might want to know alittle bit about our family. Well what's left of it anyways. 14 years ago my father died while my Mom was pregnant. He was the sheriff of Forks, Washington at the time and a gang fight had gotten out of hand to the point where two cops were killed along with 4 witnesses and 5 gang members. One of those cops was my Dad. For 14 years my Mom was a single Mom who raised 2 girls and had a full time job as a Doctor. Her whole name was Dr. Elizabeth Swan. My Dad was Sheriff Phillip Swan. She was the greatest Mom you could ask for. She single handedly raised and home schooled me and my sister.
Did I mention that my sister and I are twins? Yupp, we are. But we look nothing alike except our Brown eyes that are exactly like our Dad's were..... Or so our Mom told us. Alice, my sister, is short with short hair that sticks out in every which way unless she tames it. She's barely 5'1" and REALLY pretty.
I, on the other hand, am medium height being almost 5'6". I have long brown hair and am VERY clumsy. My sister is too but I can trip over a piece of paper if my feet willed it. And Alice mostly just drops things. My sister and I share ALOT in common even though we're so different.
I looked over at my sister who sat by the living room window looking out. She was fiddeling with her locket that we both were given when we were born. Our father wanted to give us something from him and our Mom before we even knew what a present was. Alice got a heart shaped locket and I, an oval one. They look exactly the same, with the same design on the front, except the shape. They were inscribed on the back from our parents. Knowing they were having girls, they decided on the names Isabella and Alice. My Dad wanted to name the first born Alice and the second Isabella, so my Mom did just that. It's funny how even though Alice looks younger she's the oldest.
I walked around our boxes filled with everything we owned to go hug my sister. She turned to look at me and gave my a smile.
"You know, we always wanted an adventure. I guess we get to have one."
She looked back out the window and grabbed my hand. I stood there holding her hand for a awhile. Eventually, I answered her with another smile,
"Yeah, I guess you're right. But I always thought Mom would be here with us."
I looked down at her and she looked up at me with a weird expression on her face.
"What?"
"You do realize that it took you like 15 minutes to say that, don't you?"
We both started to laugh. The thing about us is we try not to let things get to us. We knew if we let our Mom's death take hold of us that it would ruin our lives. I know that sounds slighty mean but we both needed to stay strong for both our sakes.
We heard a car horn beap and looked out to the front of the house. Our Uncle Charlie and older cousin Seth were here to help us move. The movers had already taken alot to Uncle Charlie's house, which is where we were moving to. But there was still some that we needed to take with us.
Alice got up and came with me to answer the door. We opened to see Seth who was HUGE.
"Hey, shorty!"
He said to Alice, giving her a big hug. She stuck her tounge out like a 3-year-old. He turned to me and crushed me to his chest.
"Hey taller shorty!"
Alice laughed at that while I stuck my tounge out at him just like Alice had done. I turned to give my Uncle a hug. He was my Dad's older brother and they looked similar so I always felt like he was my Dad.
"Hey kiddos!"
He said to both of us, giving us a bear hug at the same time. We smiled up at him and we both were comfortable now that they were here. It 's scary living on your own for a whole week.
We packed everything up in their suburban and were left to say goodbye to the old house we had lived in our whole life. Forks was everything we knew and loved. The people here, the weather, even though damp all the time, we loved it here. But sometimes you need to leave everything you know and love, to find something greater. At least that's what I keep telling myself. My sister and I were standing there in the green lawn looking at the weathered house, hand in hand. We said goodbye out loud and turned to towards each other.
"You excited for this adventure?"
I asked her, still holding her hand.
"Yupp. You?"
She smiled that smile I have known for 14 years. I grinned back and said,
"Ohh, yeah! California, here we come!!"
We started laughing and headed towards our Uncle's car. We climbed in and was met with slightly loud music. Charlie reached over and turned it down.
"You girls ready?"
We smiled and nodded several times. He grinned and started the engine. We were finally on our way to Sunny SoCal, ready to meet our new adventure.
5-Days-Later:
"Jeez! Could this house get any bigger?! I turn a corner everyday and get lost in my own house! It's pathetic!!"
Alice was complaining yet again, but I don't blame her. We had gotten to our Uncle's home two days ago to find out that they lived in a HUGE house. Considering they only have one son, it seemed unnecessary. But hey whatever, who are we to tell them they can't have what ever house they want? When we got here our Aunt Renee had already gotten two ajoining rooms put together for us. Her job is interior design so she had our rooms decked out with all our favorite stuff. We both had huge walk in closets, window seats, a porch looking out over the pool, Queen sized beds and an entertainment section that went along one side of the room. We both had our own bathrooms. It was more then we needed since back in Forks we both shared a room but our Aunt thought we should have our own rooms. But being the awesome Aunt she is, she gave us rooms that ajoined in the middle with a double door.
My room was all pink, with pink curtains, pink rugs, pink pillows, blankets and towels. Some purple was thrown in there too but the best part of my room was the window seat with rainbow blankets and pillows. My bathroom was bright blue and green with dolphins everywhere, they are my favorite animal. My Aunt really did a great job with my room.
Alice's room is exactly like mine except yellow with the same window seat covered in rainbows. Her bathroom is pretty sweet. It was all an arctic blue with white contrasting it. Renee had put a bunch of polar bears around Alice's bathroom, which is her favorite animal. Where she found polar bear bathroom stuff I have NO idea.
I turned to look at Alice who was still fuming about the last problem, when I laughed. She always looks funny when she's trying to be mad.
"Why don't you come and help put the last of our clothes in our closets?"
She reluctantly came with me.
Not knowing we were going to have separate rooms, we had packed all our clothes inside the same boxes. So now we have to divide them into our closets. Luckily, since Alice is smaller then me it wasn't going to be hard dividing the clothes. What was going to be hard was our shoes since we wear the same exact size. After a couple of hours we were done and Alice was over her little temper tantrum. We were wondering around our rooms, making them our own, when I heard Alice scream. I came running in closely followed by Seth and Charlie and Renee. We all stared at her lying on her bed face first.
"Um sis, are you alright?"
I asked hesitantly, not knowing what she was going to do. She's been acting pshyco for the last couple of hours. She mumbled something that I couldn't hear.
"Sorry, what?"
She mumbled again and I looked over at my Aunt, Uncle and cousin. They shrugged their shoulders when all of a sudden Alice jumped up.
"I said, I was thinking about tomorrow when I remembered. I had completely forgotten that school starts on Monday!!! What are we going to do?? We aren't going to know ANYONE!!!"
She looked frantically around when I started to laugh.
"This isn't funny, Bella!!! We're going to be newbies! No body likes newbies!!"
Aunt Renee walked over, while trying not to laugh, and placed an arm around Alice's shoulder.
"You will know one person Alice, Seth is in the same grade as you since we started him late into Kindergarten so he'll be able to introduce you to some people and help you get started. No need to start having a heart attack over something so small."
She smiled and Alice smiled back apparently completely calmed. Uncle Charlie and Seth looked at eachother and shook their heads.
"What a way to scare the crap out of everyone, cuz."
Seth walked away, shaking his head, while Alice made a silly face after him. Renee and Charlie walked out, leaving me, alone with my sister.
She had sat down and was fiddeling with her locket. I sat down beside her and started fiddeling with my own locket.
"You know, I really didn't think about school till you said anything. Now that I think about it I feeled scared since not only are we going to be newbies but we are also going to Freshmen."
We looked at eachother, sighed and at the same time fell back, looking up at the ceiling.
"But look at it this way, Bella. We're together and we'll have Seth. And it's just another interesting twist to our adventure, so lets make it fun!"
She smiled and looked over at me. I turned towards and punched her in the arm.
"Why couldn't have you thought of that BEFORE you screamed bloody murder?!"
We both laughed and headed downstairs for dinner. We got lost 4 times on the way there. We're going to have to work on our direction skills.
I hoped you liked the new story. :) My sister and I had fun coming up this idea :D
Please review!!!
