It was a bright sunny day as Schuyler pulled up to the airport in her mother's pale blue Suzuki xL7. She was about to board a 3 hour plane ride to see her oldest and best friend Bella. She had known Bella since they were about five years old. Schuyler's mother had just been transferred for her work and Schuyler's dad had stayed behind. At the time Schuyler didn't know what a divorce was and just felt that she was losing her dad because he didn't love her anymore. On the first day of kindergarten Schuyler had sat next to a very meek and shy girl. The teacher had told the class that the person sitting next to them was to become their best friend for the year they were in this class if only she had known how long that friendship would last. They had stayed friends all this time until two years ago Bella had moved to Forks Washington to live with her father. All of a sudden the two girls were separated and it saddened both of them. Though they promised to write both girls had lost touch with each other for a while. Until Schuyler got an invitation to Bella's wedding in the mail one day. Unfortunately at the time Schuyler was in the middle of getting a whole lot of tests done so she couldn't make it. Now only about 6 months later Bella had invited Schuyler to stay with her and her husband and their adopted daughter Renessmee. Of course Schuyler had jumped at the idea to see Bella and meet Bella's new family but at the same time that meant leaving her life here. She hated that idea but she knew that if she didn't do it now she never would. So here it is a week since she got the invite sitting in front of the airport with her mother. Her beautiful if somewhat of a clumsy mother. Who was going to make sure that her little brother was watched when her mom was at work, or that dinner was on the table? They had set up a babysitter for John and her mom could cook but those were things that she always did. Things that made her feel useful around the house. Thankfully it was summer break so no college classes would be missed. Well she was doing something for her this time. She is going to see her best friend and she is going to have fun. Schuyler leans over and kisses her mother goodbye and gives her a long hug before going to the back of the car where the trunk is already popped and grabbed her two suitcases and one carryon bag. She shuts the trunk and waves one last time to her mother. Then heads into the airport to board her flight. After going through metal detectors, getting her bags screened, handing over her electronics for inspection, and passing her belt and shoes through a detector she is finally able to board her flight. While on the flight she decides to take a nap with her IPOD in her ears to make the time go faster. When the plane starts to land she awakens from her restful nap and feels good. She takes out a brush from her carry on and a mirror and brushes her wavy chestnut brown with honey highlights hair. She puts the things away into her bag and braces herself as the plane actually hits the ground. Once the plane is safely stopped the airline attendants usher the passengers off of the plane. Once she is out of the plane and gotten to the baggage area she starts to look for her suitcases. They happen to be bright hot pink with brown rose buds. She finds one before she feels a tap on her back. She turns around and is automatically taken into a tight bear hug. Realizing immediately that it was Bella, Schuyler hugs back just as tightly.
"I can't believe you are finally here!" Bella exclaims in a voice that is a little more fluently then she used to speak and her voice seemed to be a higher pitch.
"Me neither." Schuyler takes a step back to look at her friend she hadn't seen in so long. Bella had changed a lot. She no longer looked like her old self. She still had her brown hair but now it was stick straight and her skin was even paler then before now it was almost so white it looked translucent. She had dark circles under her eyes and her eyes were now a brilliant shade of gold. Her bones were also a little more prominent. Overall she looked great. The only bad thing is she felt awfully cold. "Wow forks has really agreed with you hasn't it?"
"Yeah it has." Bella says looking behind her to the man standing only a couple feet away. She looks at the baggage rack and grabs Schuylers other bag as it comes around. Then the two girls take Schuylers bags and head over to the guy that Bella had been looking at before. "Sky this is my husband Edward. Edward this is my best friend Sky."
"Pleasure to meet you." Edward chimes out and places his hand out to shake Sky's. Sky shakes his hand realizing that he too was uber cold. She takes a second to take in Bella's husband too. He is pretty tale and slightly muscular. His hair is bronze and very unruly. His face is perfect and angular—high cheekbones, strong jaw line, a straight nose, and full lips. He has the same skin tone and under eye shading that Bella now has. Also the same color eyes.
"I'm so happy to meet you too; I have heard from Bella that you are a great guy and that your family is awesome." Sky tells him.
"Well they are should we get heading out the drive is about an hour long and Edwards family is eagerly awaiting your arrival." Bella tells Sky. Sky follows Bella and Edward out to a red Ferrari F430.
"Wow whose car is this?" Sky asks in amazement.
"It's mine it was my wedding gift from Edward." Bella tells Sky with a slight chuckle. They get into the car and head to The Cullen house. All the way to the Cullen house the girls talk about old times when they used to see each other every day. After awhile they arrive at the Cullen house. It is a great big mansion. "Follow us." Bella says taking Sky's hand and leading her into the house. It is a very open house with windows covering a whole side of it. Bella leads Sky into the living room where she is overwhelmed by the beauty of the people sitting in it. There is a lady sitting in a chair with a man standing next to her and then three others sitting on the couch opposite of the chair. "Sky I would like you to meet the Cullen's." Bella points to the lady sitting in the chair. "That's Esme and her husband Carlisle." She points over to the couch. "From left to right that's Emmett and Rosalie and next to them is Jasper." When Bella finally points to Jasper, Sky is dumbfounded. She thinks that she is looking at the most perfect guy in the world but he looks so sad. Suddenly Jasper gets up and storms out of the room.
