A/N: I know the initial plot goes to Lift the Wings, but I will not steal her story. I will use Twilight as my guide, but after that New Moon, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn are disregarded completely.

Summary: Grace and Bella Swan move to Forks to live with Charlie, as Grace's job as a doctor leads her there. On the first day there her whole world was turned upside down in one little meeting, and it began to shape the rest of her life. Esme died ten years ago, before the girls moved there, from a supposed 'car accident'. Carlisle/OC

Disclaimer: I don't own Twilight or Delta airlines. I'm just using them.

Grace Swan had always hated planes. Always. It was only because of Bella she had rode in the tiny, tin-can jet, and even then, she had to pull out the puppy dog eyes to get her on there. The plane ride had been horrible, and the turbulence had shaken the plane until it was on the ground.

"Thank-You for flying Delta airlines, and I hope you have enjoyed your flight". Said the voice from the speakers.

Grace had relaxed when the voice had announced that they were going to land, and her black, straight hair was frizzy from stress. Her silver eyes were hopeful, and as soon as she stepped off the plane she smiled and said,

"We're safe, Bella! However, I am never setting foot on one of those things ever again."

"That's fine. Next time, we can take the boat, or drive. You took a boat to Japan, right"? Asked Bella. It had been seven years since she had seen her twenty-three year old sister.

"Yes, I did take the boat. Remember, Renee took me to California, and then, I took the boat to Honolulu, and then to Japan?" asked Grace.

"Yes, I do. You sent me some kimono- I still have it. Renee is sending it to us. We better hurry. Charlie might be getting worried." said Bella.

Grace only gave a nod, and followed Bella through the terminal, dodging luggage carts, and people along the way. They got to the food court, and Charlie was standing near the pizza place, as he used to when they were kids.

"Bella, Grace." he said, and hugged them both awkwardly. "You can put your carryon bags in the trunk of the cruiser. Grace, I understand that you need a new car. We'll go car shopping for you tomorrow, and I'll help you get signed. Not that you don't have excellent credit. Bella, I have a surprise for you when we get home".

The two put their bags in the trunk, and Grace took shotgun, and Bella rode in the back, behind the mesh screen. Charlie and Grace both looked to each other, and chuckled at the same time.

"I am not a criminal". Said Bella.

"I know, but it's funny that you are setting back there." Said Charlie.

"Because you would never be setting back there for real," Continued Grace, smirking from her place in the front.

"Your clothes haven't gotten to the house yet, so we'll have to go shopping tomorrow as well as look for a car", said Charlie.

Bella looked on in disgust, and Grace only gave a slight inclination of her head to let him know she had heard.

"We can go car shopping first, right"? Asked Bella.

"That's up to Grace. After all, she's the one that needs a new car". Said Charlie, keeping his eyes on the road.

There was silence the rest of the car ride, and the two girls were texting each other back and forth on their T-Mobile Sidekicks. Grace's was black, and Bella's was lime green. Charlie was completely oblivious to them, and when they got home, Charlie blind-folded Bella.

"Bella, I know it's not much, but it's sturdy, and won't let you down". Said Charlie, and then took the blindfold off.

Bella's eyes met her new, old, red Chevy truck. Charlie handed her the keys, and Bella smiled.

"Thanks, Dad"! She said, "I love it"!!

Charlie blushed, and Grace smiled at her sister. "It's nice that you have a ride, Bella. That means you won't have to get up at five-thirty every morning to ride with me."

"Yeah. That's way too early- school starts at eight". Said Bella, smiling.

"Why don't we go try that truck of yours out"? Asked Grace, smirking at Bella's expression of absolute terror. "You can drive".

"The truck can't go over sixty-five miles an hour, so it sounds like it's a good thing you aren't driving, Grace". Said Charlie, giving a grin to the girls.

Bella only smiled and Grace's smirk only doubled in size. "It's fine-we're going shopping tomorrow".

"I'm really glad I don't have to ride with you now. You'll probably pick the fastest car on the lot". Said Bella jokingly.

"That's what I plan on doing". Said Grace. "Now let's go try out your new truck".

The two girls took a joyride in the ancient truck, filled it up, and took it back home. They ate the pizza Charlie had ordered, and then unpacked their carry-on bags.

I know it's short, but the next chapter is going to be surprising, and I couldn't mesh the two together.
