Moving in with my dad wasn't my idea, not even close. My mom, Renee got remarried a couple months ago and "suggested" that I come here and actually make friends. Maybe bond with Charlie who was also now on the brink of remarriage. So lets just say I wasn't surprised when I got off my flight from Phoenix to see Sue Clearwater and her son Seth standing next to Charlie.
"Hey Dad, Seth, errrr... Sue." I said akwardly as I stepped into the dimly lit airport gate.
"Hey Bells!" Seth shouted running up to me and embracing me in a strong bear hug.
"Hello Isabella." Sue chastised politely as her son released me from his embrace.
"Hi ." I replied, hoping that this would be the last time she called me Isabella.
"Hi Bella." Charlie said last coming up and hugging me awkwardly.
"Alice and Edward Cullen are over in the airport starbucks grabbing us all some hot chocolate." Charlie whispered in my ear, before rushing back to Sue.
I smiled, I'd known the Cullens' literally my whole life. And when I came down to Forks they were always the people I hung out with. Especially Edward, he in all reality was my best friend. Yet that had been a known fact since we were 2, so really that entitles us to talk every day for at least an hour or so. Except for last week because of our end of school finals.
"I'm going to go ahead and find them." I whispered to Charlie as I walked past him and down the bland airport halls towards starbucks. Even though every time I pass through here they've moved the starbucks you can still tell where it is from a mile off because of the thick aroma. So simply I followed it.
"BELLA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" My favorite voice in the world yelled as he carried two trays of steaming hot chocolate.
I smile and wave him forward but he nods towards Alice sitting inside waiting for more coffee.
"Oh." I said, before running over to him and attempting to hug him. Though the drinks really got in the way.
"I suggest waiting on the welcome home hug." Edward told me smiling.
"But hey feel free to take a cup of welcome home hot chocolate off my hands It'll make the hug come a lot quicker." He chimed handing over a tray so I could grab the one clearly labeled 'Bella'.
I took the hot choclate and thanked my friend hoping that the hug may come with a kiss....
"Alice you have the damned coffee hurry up! Bella's here!" Edward yelled into the Starbucks and Alice spiky haired and all looked up to see me.
And let's just say I heard the clanks of someone running and jumping in stilettos. I looked at Alice she was wearing a simple sleeveless pink dress and matching stilettos. I sighed assuming that Alice hadn't changed a bit since I last saw her.
Edward really hadn't changed either he still wore simple button ups, jeans,and converse. Still even in the norm Edward was beautiful.
"Bella did you hear me?" Alice asked frowning at me pulling me out of observational trance.
"What?" I replied, raising an eyebrow before drinking a sip of the hot cocoa.
"I said that you and Edward have the houses to yourselves practically all summer!" She said, and I choked a bit on the searing drink.
"What?" I repeated, I'd heard what she had said but truly I didn't understand. Were Charlie and the Cullens' planning on leaving two immature hormonal 16 year olds alone all summer?
"Charlie, Sue, Seth, Leah, Esme, Carlisle, Emmett, Rosalie, Jasper, and I are all going on a cruise for the summer. I thought Edward or Charlie had already told you that.
I just shook my head before she ran off to go find my bags before I could.
"So we're pretty much going to be left alone literally right next door from each other for three months?" I asked still a little shocked.
"Yeah, pretty much but in their defense they've had this trip planned since early March." Edward said shrugging it off.
"Oh, then why aren't you going?" I asked him giving him a weak smile as we started down the airport halls towards the bag pickup.
He blushed, "I actually was hoping to fly down to Phoenix to see you, I mean who else is there to hang out with all summer." He said smiling at me warmly.
And suddenly I felt a searing wet substance fall on me and I looked around to see a little kid in a stroller holding a coffee cozy.
"That wasn't me." Edward told me looking at the two trays.
I frowned and motioned for him to look behind us. "Oh... Cute kid you have there." Edward told the mother who was chatting loudly into the phone.
"Oh... what? Oh god! Jason did you throw mommy's coffee at the nice lady?" The mom asked the young child in the stroller who nodded proudly.
"I'm so sorry. Jason's only 3 and he has a thing for throwing random objects that are set in front of him." The woman apologized politely, and I just gazed down at my messenger bag. Thank god it was water proof.
"No, really it's fine I'll just buy a tacky Washington tourist shirt." I said jokingly and the woman just smiled and nodded as we got on way.
"I'll help you find a tacky tourist shirt to wear. My treat!" Edward said motioning his head towards a cheesy gift shop.
I laughed and took a tray of drinks from him so we could easily move around looking for a shirt.
"OH! Look at this! This is frigging hilarious!" Edward said showing me a rack of shirts that all advertised 'Big cookie wonders of earth and fire works'
"No... Look they all are octo mom sized! No! I know your buying but no!" I said laughing loudly.
"What about this one with the roller coaster the spider monkey that somehow sums up Washington wildlife." Edward asked me smiling widely finding my size in it almost instantly.
"Sure I mean you are buying and that is somehow absolutely hilarious." I said letting a couple laughs escape my lips like glistening raindrops.
He just picked up the hilarious blue shirt and went up to the odd white counter that held a cashier wearing an adventurer suit.
"Hello and Welcome to my wildlife adventure world! Have you found everything alright in your visit here?" The man asked in a cheesy high pitched voice. And Edward simply nodded and set down the shirt and simply pulled out his wallet and payed staring at the man with a death stare.
"Thank you kind sir and remember THE SAFARI IS IN YOUR SOUL!" The man shouted dully and you could tell he hated this job.
"Come on before he starts rambling on about the gorilla expeditions!" Edward says tossing the shirt to me with his free hand and I caught it skillfully and ran up to him hoping that the hot chocolate wouldn't spill.
"We need to get my bags remember!" I shouted as he used his now completely free arm to grab my waist and pull me close to him.
"I realize that BUT I believe Alice has found them all." Edward said now wearing an almost whimsical smile.
"BAGS FLY FREE, BAGS FLY FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" The pixie shouted roughly as she lugged four duffle bags over her shoulders and rolled two others.
"How many bags did you bring?" Edward asked laughing as his sister screamed 'Bags fly free'.
"More than that!" I told him before breaking his grip to go find the rest of my bags.
