The warm night breeze was gently hitting Alaina's face as she walked towards the aircraft that would carry her from Dallas, TX to Forks, WA. She had not farewells to give since she had no family here. It was just her this time. She looked around in the darkness, but she saw no sign of the person she would be traveling with.

Climbing the stairs silently she then crossed into the plane and blinked her eyes at the change in light. The plane was surprisingly full for such a late night flight, but she shrugged as she walked her way closer to the front to where the first class section was located. She walked over to a reclining seat in the far corner and set her messenger bag to the floor. She pulled out her notebook from the bag and began scribbling down notes.

"Nedia where are you…" She said so quietly no one could even tell she had spoken a word. She was beginng to give up hope when she herd familiar foot steps falling quickly from behind her. She looked up smiling to see Nedia running down the aile towards the her and taking her seat next to Alaina.

"Sorry I'm late. I was saying goodbye." Nedia said as she plopped down in the seat looking at her with worried eyes.

"It's fine. At least you didn't miss the flight. I would hate to have to run us all the way to Washington state with you on my back. I could handle it, but I really don't want to." She said smiling. "I'm glad I didn't have to say goodbye to anyone. You're the only person I would have to say farwell to, but I don't see that happening."

Alaina looked over to the stewardess when she walked to the front of the department and started the routine flight safty nonsense. Alaina found herself not listening to the words of the woman but turning her attention back to Nedia as the stewardess walked to the cockpit and gave the captain the clearing to take off then headed to the second class area. Alaina looked to Nedia smiling slightly.

"Is this you're first flight?" She asked Nedia with a normal tone and tucking her silver blonde hair behind her ears, noticing her worried expression.

"Ya im kind of nervous." Nedia replied with a shaky voice.

"There's no point in being nervous. If the plane crashes I'll just kick out the door, wait until we're close to the ground, then we'll stumble around like we're the luckiest survivors." She said laughing.

As the plane made it's way down the runway Alaina looked to her friend. "It will be fine. I promise okay?" She said to Nedia with a rare warm smile.

Nedia nodded still looking a bit nervous, but she also felt a little reasured. Nedia slept for most of the flight with Alaina watching her silently, a small laugh escaping her mouth when Nedia would make noises or say something in her slumber. It was when she started wispering the word mother sadly that Alaina would frown and stroked Nedia's hair gently.

Alaina looked out the window sighing to herself as the couple of hours passed and the airplane started to touch down in Forks, WA. She nudged Nedia's shoulder lightly to awaken her watching as Nedia looked up at her blinking tiredly. Nedia stretched her arms above her head and yawned with a smile.

"Now was that so bad?" Alaina asked her laughing a bit as she stood up. Nedia shrugged smiling and stood also. Alaina grabbed her messenger bag from the floor and pulled out her cell phone looking at the time. "It's midnight. That's perfect." Alaina said as they walked down the stairs and to the terminal. They stopped at the airport exit and Alaina looked to Nedia.

"Is your cousin coming soon? Or should she already be here?" Alaina asked her softly.

Nedia looked at her and nodded. "She said that she should be here by elven thirty so im assuming shes here somewhere."

Alaina smiled nodding and began to look around. "Do you see her?" she questioned.

Nedia looked around a bit then a wide grin stretched across her face when she saw her cousin. "There she is!" she pointed and started to run in the direction she indicated.

Alaina easily kept up with her having to slow her self down so she wouldn't appear to be going unnaturally fast, but she stopped suddenly when a man with black hair stepped out of the car to stand next to Nedia's cousin. She saw him whisper something in the others ear and glared at Alaina. She walked up to stand near Nedia trying to keep from running in the other direction from the stench of the werewolf infront of her.

Nedia hugged her cousin tightly then looked back at Alaina. "Alaina this is Emma. Emma, Alaina. Easy." She said smiling. "But Emma who's your friend?" She asked looking at the man who stepped from the back seat.

Emma smiled at her cousin widely then nodded to Alaina with a tense look. "His name is Jacob Black. He's one of the guys that lives with us on the reservation. But I'm afraid we only have room for one person extra at the house." She said quietly.

Nedia's expression fell as she looked at the car then to Alaina. "are you sure you can't squeeze in one more person?" she asked. Emma shook her head slowly then stared at Alaina coldly. Tears brimmed in Nedia's eyes as she threw her arms around Alaina. "I'm going to miss you Alaina. I don't want us to be away from eachother."

"I'll see you around town. And you can call or text me. It's not so bad. I'm not sure if I could handle being around a lot of people anyway." Alaina said shaking her head. Alaina hugged Nedia and smiled. "Don't worry."

Alaina looked to the other two then started to walk torwards the parking garage to the air port. She picked up the keys to her Volvo and looked back to Nedia then climbed into the car and drove off quickly. She kept driving until she saw a familiar face drive by her . The car stopped suddenly and backed up on the empty highway. She pushed the button to roll down her window and she smiled. "Carlisle." She said looking at the older vampire beside of her.

"Alaina. It's been too long. What are you doing in this small town?" He asked her.

"Just visiting with a friend. Is there any way I can stay with you for a bit? Her family is sort of a part of the reservation." She told him with a small smile.

"Oh. That does pose a problem. Of course you can stay with my family and I. Just follow me. I'm heading back home anyway." Carlisle said with a welcoming expression.

Alaina turned the car around and followed him to a more secluded part of the city where the trees grew thick and the road changed to be a bit rougher. She drove the car to to the empty spot in the garage and stepped out taking a quick look at her surroundings. She followed Carlisle into the house and stopped suddenly when she saw a familiar face infront of her. His golden eyes stared back at her as she met his gaze. "Edward..." She said quietly.
