AN: Obviously, I am not Stephenie Meyers (though I did make a Twilight character her) and I couldn't own a piece of work as beautiful as Twilight, cuz then who knows what I'd do with it. Look, it's not mine and I already made all the vampires human!

Sometimes, when you've been friends with someone for forever, you just know what they are thinking

Sometimes, when you've been friends with someone for forever, you just know what they are thinking. You could draw a picture of them with your eyes closed. You feel lightheaded and can't stop smiling in their presence. Right? Well, that is what Edward and I have.

We are so close I can't stand to be apart. We've been best friends since we were born, on the same day, ironically enough. Our mothers, Renee and Esme, were childhood friends. It seems Esme's nurturing nature was just pulled to Renee's zaniness as a best friend.

Then, they both got married, being each other's bride's maids, of course, and bought houses. Little did they know, they happened to have bought houses right next to each other. If it weren't for Esme being here, I don't know what would have happened. I think my mother might have hated wet, green Forks enough to leave Charlie. Since Esme was always able to make my mother see sense and comfort her, Renee stayed all those years and grew content with the green and the constant cloud cover. She and Charlie's marriage also bloomed with time.

Then, they gave birth. Renee had plain old me. Esme had the best child I can imagine. He was caring, and eloquent, and he always seemed to know what other people were thinking, and incredible, and perfect in every way, and… OK, so you get the point, Edward is the best friend I could ever imagine.

I also had a sister and brother, Alice and Emmett; I also had and adoptive brother, Jacob Black, whose mother died of cancer and whose father (one of Charlie's best friends) had died in a car accident. At first, the doctors believed he would only be paralyzed from the waist down, until his heart failed. Jacob and I were close too, and I was so happy to have him be my brother and have a claim to him. Alice and Emmett loved him too.

Edward's siblings were Rosalie and Jasper. They were twins. I think that if it weren't for my siblings, Rosalie may have hated me. However, after she got to know me because of Emmett and Alice, we became really good friends. I loved her sense of humor and Alice, Rosalie, and I made up the girls in our group. Jasper was so charismatic. If I ever needed some cheering up, I knew who to go to. I loved the Cullen family!

To both our mother's delight, Alice and Jasper started going out, as did rose and Emmett. Jacob fell in love with some girl named Leah, who he helped get over her last love. Sam was cruel to have left her for her cousin of all people! They always made fun of Edward and me for being the only two single people in the group. My mother has tried to make me ask Edward out for years now, but he was my best friend, I didn't feel that way about him, right?

Charlie, my dad, was happy with that, since he didn't like the others, specifically Jasper, for dating his kids. That put a bit of a damper on his relationship with the Cullens. Well, sorta at least. Carlisle felt the same way and they bonded over that, at least.

I'm not sure, but I think the other kids in our school think we are snobs or something. I noticed girls specifically hate our group. Actually, they really hated me, which I never really got. I mean, I m plain and boring. The only thing that seemed to make sense was how close I was to Edward. Most of the girls in school were in love with them, but he never seemed to like them back. I never really understood the pleading look in his eyes that he gave me whenever a girl asked him out. Actually, whenever a girl did that, I'd feel like I wanted to rip their head off. Wow! I'm not jealous, why would I be. I just want what is best for my friend. Right?

My mom eventually became a successful author, on books about vampires and who knows what else (she like to name the characters after her kids), so our family could have afforded to move away. However, none of us wanted to, we were right next to our best friends and couldn't want anything more.

That was basically my life up until now. Today is my first day in 11th grade. Alice scared me a bit when she said that I would meet my soul mate very soon. She tends to be really intuitive, so I almost believed her. We liked to joke that she was psychic. I didn't realize just how soon she meant as I walked into the silver Volvo that drove me to school everyday. All seven of us couldn't fit in Alice's Porsche, so Edward and I would just drive in a separate car.

Alice's prediction was in my thoughts the entire car ride. That was when I realized how many 'right?' were present in my friendship with Edward. Friendship was all I wanted, right?

Oh, it's another right to add to the list!

AN: I hate to put a mandate on this, but I need reviews people. If I don't get enough for this chapter, I'll put a mandate for the number on the next one, and you don't want that!
