Goodbye Forks, Hello Mystic Falls

Chapter One

Author's note: This is my first crossover fic, so please, be kind. :) It takes place after Eclipse in Twilight and around the beginning of season two of the Vampire Diaries. Enjoy!

The fact that it was raining when we entered Mystic Falls felt sort of ironic. The one thing good about leaving Forks was that we were moving somewhere that had more sunshine . . . or so I had thought.

I looked over at Edward and he grinned at me, already knowing what was going through my mind. "It won't rain for long, love."

"Yeah!" Alice chirped in from the backseat. "It's actually going to stop in a couple hours . . . around midnight."

I sighed and wrapped my hand around Edward's free one as he continued to drive. "I still can't believe we're doing this," I started, glancing back at Alice and Jasper. "To meet another type of vampire . . . it just blows my mind, really."

A couple months ago Carlisle had heard news about a completely different breed of vampire hanging around Mystic Falls, Virginia. Fascination had gotten the best of the Cullens, especially Jasper, so we decided to spend the rest of summer there to check things out. Jasper had told us, "It's better to learn about them before the Volturi does. It gives us an advantage." I couldn't have agreed more. The Volturi were definitely a scary bunch, so any advantage over them that we could conquer was for the better.

Edward, Jasper, Alice, and I decided to volunteer to spend the rest of the summer in Mystic Falls. Of course, Edward was worried about me spending time anywhere where vampires could be a danger, but he figured the safest place I could be was with him. He had sworn not to let me out of his sight for the entire trip.

"There it is," Edward said suddenly, glancing at the hotel we would be staying at for the next couple of months.

"You guys sure know how to live the life of luxury, huh?" I asked, peering at what was definitely the most top rated hotel in town.

Alice grinned at me. "We're Cullens, sweetheart," she told me. I felt her gently rub her hand against my shoulders. "Of course we like to live luxurious!" She smiled at me again.

"You'll fit right in, Bella," Jasper chimed in. "Especially with the expensive clothes Alice bought you before we left."

I watched as Alice playfully threw her hand over Jasper's mouth. "Don't scare the poor child, Jasper!"

I sighed. "More clothes, Alice?"

She just winked at me.

"I'll take your bags," Edward offered, taking my heavy maroon bag off my shoulder, along with my huge purse that was overflowing.

"Thanks," I muttered, smiling at him with gratitude.

We walked slowly through the lobby, taking in our new home. There was a gorgeous indoor fountain that was placed directly under a glass ceiling, along with a hotel bar that looked classy enough to be off Sex and the City.

"Wow, this place is really nice," I whispered towards Edward.

Alice smirked at me. "You haven't traveled much, have you, Bella?"

Soon we were in our joint rooms and getting unpacked. I immediately lied down on the bed, trying to organize my thoughts. So much had happened in the last few weeks. My best friend, Jacob, had told me he was in love with me, which was enough drama to last me a lifetime. We had fought newborn vampires and defeated them, not to mention Edward killing Victoria in the process (Thank God). We had also had a visit from the Volturi with a reminder - I wasn't supposed to still be human.

Edward and his family had agreed on changing me after the trip, right before our first semester in Alaska. Our wedding date was set for August 16th, just a couple weeks before our classes would start. Everything had been planned out very thoroughly.

"Maybe you should take a nap, love," Edward suggested. "It was a long road trip."

"Nah," I said, yawning and then smiling about it. "Really . . . I'm fine."

"You look sleepy."

I giggled. "You always say that."

He smiled at me and continued neatly hanging our clothes in the hotel closet. I watched him in awe. Even while doing a simple act like this, he still looked like a Greek god. The thing that killed me the most was that he didn't even realize just how perfect he was. It was crazy!

"So what are the plans tonight?" I asked Edward, still gawking at his amazingness. "Are we hunting for the vampires or what?" I joked.

He laughed. "I think we're going to be a bit more low key than that," he replied. "We're going to dinner at Mystic Grill tonight. It's supposed to be one of the hotspots, so you never know."

"Will you know a vampire if you see one?" I asked, sitting up.

Edward shrugged. "We're not sure yet. It just depends how they work . . . "

I paused, wondering if I should ask the question popping around in my mind. I decided to go ahead with it. "Are you going to kill them?"

I noticed Edward's movements becoming slower, as if he was considering my question. "We will if we have to."

I concluded that this answer was all I was going to get. I sighed and lied back down onto the bed.

Just then there was a knock at the door. It was Alice. "Ready to go eat? Well, watch Bella eat, anyway."

Edward looked at me then nodded. "Let's do this."
