Sixteen years later

'Alicia, Alice! Get down here! Hurry up!' Jane called up the stairs.

'Hold on! Alice and I are doing make up!' I called

'You're going to be late for school! Your mother and father are waiting, Alex is ready' Jane shouted

'Alex is a boy! He doesn't have to wear make up' I reminded her as Alice and I appeared at the top of the stairs. I was wearing my favourite pair of skinny jeans and Alice's green tunic top. Alice was wearing a bright pink skirt and white halter top, with a long cardigan jacket. We both had pink mascara, black eye-liner, but I had green eye-shadow and Alice had pink. My bronze hair was straightened and it hung in my face. Alice's hair was like it usually is.

Today was my first day at my new school. My family had been moving around all my life. But that's not sirprizing. If we stayed in one place for to long people would get suspicious. They'd notice none of us age. Alex and I aged up until our sixteenth birthday. Now we're full vampires. And it rocks! I have been to a grand total of eight schools in my lifetime. And in every one of them, I get guys attention, but that's not a shock, I am a vampire after all. Being inhumanly beautiful is part of the deal. But I'm more beautiful than most vampires. That's because I am, what Carlisle calls a pure vampire, which means I was born a vampire and I wasn't bitten. I have every power in the world, and more. If Alex and I work together, we could move the sun! Alex is my twin brother/cousin. When we were born we chose our parents, even though my mom Bella gave birth to him, Alex's parents are Rosalie and Emmett. My auntie and uncle. This is cool, because Rosalie was desperate to have a child, and now she does.

Outside it is raining. As usual. We moved to this place at the weekend. Mom and dad seemed strangely happy to be coming here. I can't think why, it rains like 24/7. You're probably thinking I'm a brat. I'm not, I swear, it's just, in the last place we were living, I was falling in love with someone. Her name was Ellie. She was my best friend. We started dating a few months before my family and I left. I miss her loads. People made fun of Ellie and me, which was annoying. But we chose to ignore them, it's not their fault they're small minded. I was so close to telling her my secret when we moved. Alex is glad we left though. He was in love with Ellie to! But she didn't like him. I feel sorry for him. But there are plenty of girls here in Forks for both of us. After saying good-bye to Jane Alice, Alex and I got into Alice's vintage yellow Porsche, and we drove to Forks high school.
