Isabella's P.O.V.
I was lying down on my bed, thinking about the news Charlie told me. I still couldn't get my head wrapped around the idea of me being adopted. Yup, that's right. I, Isabella Maria Swam was actually Isabella Maria Gilbert.
Apparently I was the oldest (only by 10 minutes) of my other two siblings. Elena, my twin younger sister was living with their... Our aunt Jenna down in Mystic Falls, Virginia. My real parents had supposedly died about a year ago from picking up Elena from a party, they're car wrecked and sent them over a bridge. Elena was the only survivor.
I felt betrayed. I had been lied to all my life kept away from my real family, but the saddest thing was I had never gotten to see my real parents yet I was mad at them too. They sent me away and kept Elena. I had never had a normal life with Renee because I was the grown up and Charlie was more like a over protective uncle.
So I had been lied to, betrayed, and almost died trying to find peace and happiness. Edward dumped me, Renee traveling with Phil, and Charlie trying to be supportive. I was officially broken.
Stiflingly a sob, I got and grabbed my suitcase from my closet. I filled it up with clothes and a few precise items and went downstairs. I went to the emergency money and took most of it.
Since Charlie was at work I quickly wrote out a letter and got in my truck. Without a glance back I mad my way to the airport as a single tear fell down my face.
~ 1 hour later ~
Once at the airport I bought a plan ticket to Mystic Falls, I thought about my new life. I didn't have anyplace to go or any clue where Elena and them were staying.
Sighing I closed my eyes as I let the rocking of the plane drift me off to sleep.
Gasping awake I tried to calm my breathing as felt someone touch my shoulder, I looked up and saw an elderly man looking at me. "Excuse me miss, but the plane landed." He said. I smiled and thanked him.
Once I got off the plane I grabbed my suitcase and bag before I called for a taxi. Getting in I told him my destination and explained to him my situation.
As we drove past the "Welcome to Mystic Falls" sign I couldn't help but get nervous as I got closer to my family. I was excited yet nervous to see them. I just hope they like me, I thought.
