My name is Brooklyn Lockwood and my parents and I are moving to Forks, Washington. Apparently some great doctor lives there and my parents want me to see him. They want him as my new doctor seeing as the last one broke the contract they made him sign. My parents make every doctor I see sign a contract saying that they will not tell another person about my 'condition' or my parents have grounds to sue. Which they have, to five doctors, and have made a few million from. They put at least half a million into a bank account that only I can access.
My 'condition' is that instead of one heart I have two. I have two because I was going to have a twin sister, but she died in the womb and I absorbed her like the healthier twin often does. I obviously didn't completely absorb her and now I have two hearts, and two different eye colors. My parents told me when I was fifteen that they were going to name my twin Winter so I had snuck out with my friends and got a snowflake tattooed over my right heart, which was my sister's.
If your think that you have a lot of energy, imagine having double that. It makes sense that The Doctor is always running and kind of hyper. He has SO much energy and I can relate. I often wake up at four in the morning, as I don't need eight hours of sleep for some reason, and spend two to three hours running on the treadmill in our garage so I can burn some energy. Unfortunately my energy also replenishes twice as quickly.
When I was in elementary school my teacher had talked to my parents to get me checked for ADHD, but they never did as they knew why I was so hyper. That was the year they got the treadmill so I could work off some energy so I wouldn't be as hyper at school. That also helped me stay fit when we moved to Nevada and it was too hot to leave the house most days.
According to a doctor I had when I was five, who even after he retired stayed in contact with us and is a good friend with my parents, my hearts beat in sync. My hearts beat twice stop for a second and then beat twice again. A few seconds pass before it does that pattern again.
Another reason my parents are making me move to Forks, Washington and get this new doctor is because some strange things have been happening to me recently. One of the first things I noticed is I have been healing at incredible rates. Like being able to see as a wound heals. I first noticed that a few months ago when I cut my finger while helping my mom cook dinner. I had dropped the knife and put my finger in my mouth. My mom made me take it out so she could check to see how bad it was and we were both shocked when it sealed shut. That was when Mom decided to find me a new doctor.
The second thing that happened is my senses have gotten better, like I used to wear glasses because I had terrible vision and now I can read a sign that is fifty yards away just fine. I can hear a pin drop from thirty yards away, my mom and I checked one day while my dad was a work, and I can smell something from twenty yards away like I was right next to it.
The last thing is I am faster, can run for much longer before losing my breath and am much stronger than I have ever been. I don't know why this is happening and it is scaring my mom so much she is moving us to Washington just so I can get a good doctor and according to her Dr. Carisle Cullen is one of the best. Dad wonders if he is so good that he lives in a tiny town that neither of us even knew existed until a month ago when Mom said she found me a new doctor.
Dad is complaining that we have to move to a place that has a sunny day about as often as we have a rainy one here in Las Vegas. Mom and I are looking forward to moving there as neither of us really like Las Vegas, but Dad had been transferred here a few years ago. Fortunately he quit his job last year and is now a stay at home dad as he finally got one of his books published. Mom is a fashion designer and is going to work mainly from home, but every once in a while she'll be gone for a week or two. Dad for one hates that and says she should quit as we have enough money, from them suing five different doctor in the last twelve years, but she loves her work. Dad hates it when he is away from her for long, another reason he so readily quit his job when he got published.
