SUMMARY- Danielle moves to Forks to be with a family she has never known. She only plans on staying for a few months, but will someone change her mind? (Pre-Twilight, AU/AH, Non-canon)
I leaned my head against the window of the airplane and sighed, turning the volume on my iPod up to try to block out the engine noise. I had left the only home I had ever known; hot, sunny Texas and was heading to stay with a family I had never met in cold, rainy Washington. "But it's only for 5 months," I muttered to myself, "Five months and I'll graduate high school and go back to Texas for college." I looked back out the window and sighed.
I guess I should introduce myself; I'm Danielle Kelley. I'm 17 and a senior in high school. My mom was attacked and ended up pregnant with me, then died during my birth, so I was raised by her sister, my Aunt Linda, and her husband, my Uncle David. They have a son Kris who's two years younger than me. Uncle David and I never got along and my aunt and uncle recently started having martial problems. They're going through a pretty nasty divorce right now and it was stressing me out and totally affecting my grades. So Aunt Linda contacted her cousin, Esme and asked if I could finish out my senior year living with her and her family. I assured her over the phone that I wouldn't be any trouble; that I would just focus on my studies and she wouldn't even know I was there. She agreed to let me stay, so here I am, flying to a place I've never been to live with people I've never met. Lovely.
"You're the one who asked for this, Danielle; no one made you do it," I reminded myself. I went over what I knew about Esme and her family in my head; I didn't want to make a bad impression to the family. Esme was married to Carlisle Cullen, who was a surgeon at the local hospital. Esme was a part-time interior designed who worked from home and also raised their three adopted sons, Jasper, Emmett and Edward. Jasper was 19 and a freshmen at the University of Washington in Seattle, Emmett was 18 and a senior like me and Edward was 16 and a sophomore.
The flight attendant came over and asked me to turn of my iPod as we were getting ready to land. I quickly turned it of and stuffed it in my backpack. "This is it," I thought, "Just gotta make it through the next 5 months."
