Taylor and her family have moved to La Push and run unknowingly into a pack of wolves...
Please tell me what you think, I don't own Twilight, just Taylor and her family. And by the way everyone IS American but I'm not going to stop saying mum.
Previously on my Kathrine x account.
I can't believe my mum and dad are making us move, and to somewhere I've never even heard of. La Push. I mean that's the most stupid name I've ever heard. We have spent the last two weeks packing and tomorrow we're leaving.
We as in my mum, dad, my two adoptive brothers, and two adoptive sisters. I am the only biological child of my parents and they adopted Jason, Daniel, Chrissy and Beth. It's all very confusing.
"Taylor! Have you got your bag packed?!" Mum shouted up to me.
"YES, apart from the clothes from today and tomorrow!" I shouted back.
"OK, good!" I heard a knock on my door.
"Come in." I called. Four year old Beth skipped in, grinning and in her pyjamas.
"Hey Beth, what's up?"
"I get to stay up late tonight!" She said gleefully.
"Wow that's great, are you sure you won't be too tired for tomorrow?" She shook her head, "Are you excited about moving?" She nodded vigorously, at least somebody is. She sat down next to me on my sleeping bag. All of our furniture had all ready been taken to the new house so all we had were sleeping bags to sleep in. Great joy. Beth leant on me and I gave her a hug.
"I am going to miss Abi, Claire and Cate though." She said after a moment.
"Oh I know you will, we're all going to miss our friends, but we'll make new friends. Promise." I reassured her, she'd obviously been worrying about this for a while.
"OK!" She said cheerfully, bouncing up and running to the door. It doesn't take much to cheer her up.
I wandered downstairs after a while, as I was going crazy just staring at my empty walls. I went into the living room where mum, dad and Beth were sat on cushions, watching the little telly that they had saved from packing.
"Are you joining us?" Mum asked, because I was just sort of hovering.
"Erm, don't think so I think I'm going to stay with Chrissy for a bit."
"OK, will you take Beth to bed then please." Beth was struggling to keep her eyes open.
"Sure." I held out my hand to Beth and she got up slowly, "Have you brushed your teeth?" She nodded. We climbed up the stairs and I sent Beth to the toilet. She came out a moment later and I led her to her room.
"Nighty night Beth." I kissed the top of her head, pulled the covers over her and put her little light on. As I neared her door I heard a mumbled 'night' and I turned her big light off.
I walked across the hall and knocked on Chrissy's door.
"Come in." Sixteen year old Chrissy called. She was on my and hers laptop.
"Hey Tay." Only my family can call me Tay, one person once made that mistake. They didn't do it again.
"What's up?" She asked.
"Nothing, just seriously bored, what you doing?"
"Just talking to Sammy, I'm really going to miss her." Sammy was her best friend, I was there when she told her she was leaving. It broke my heart seeing them both, that was only the second time I had ever seen Chrissy cry. I just did what I did with Beth, gave her a hug.
"I know no one will ever take Sammy's place, but you will make new friends and you will always keep in touch with her."
"Thanks." Came Chrissy's choked voice. Sammy signed off MSN so Chrissy shut down the laptop.
"So what do you think about La Push then?" Asked Chrissy, she obviously felt the same way as me.
"Stupid name, too far away but got a beach so fair enough." She laughed and nodded.
"I was just looking it up on the laptop, it apparently rains a lot. But the school seems OK and there's a big town nearby with good shops."
That's one of the things we have in common. Shopping. I found that out on my tenth birthday a week after she was adopted. Mum was taking me out for a treat for my birthday and she asked Chrissy to come. If you think that eight year olds can't be shopaholics, you're wrong. Her ninth birthday was a week later and we did the same thing.
I stayed in Chrissy's room until I decided that it was time I went to bed, or sleeping bag.
"Nighty night Chrissy." I said, kissing the top of her head.
"Night."
"Taylor, WAKE UP!" Came the dulcet tones of mum early the next morning. And when I say early, I mean early. Six forty-five. That's just mean. I dragged myself up and into the shower, in our shared bathroom. There's seven of us and we only have one bathroom. Well hopefully that's changed at the new house, we don't actually know yet. Stupid parents and their 'nice surprises'.
I got out of the shower, hair dripping wet, pulled my dressing gown on and brushed my teeth. There was a loud knock on the door.
"Taylor! Are you done yet?! You've been in there ages!" Whined seventeen year old Daniel.
"I've been in here for TEN minutes!" I shouted back. Daniel, Jason and I are all the same age and unfortunately, at times, the same year.
"Yeah well – so?! It's my turn!"
"You should've got up earlier!" But I still went opened the door and went back to my room.
"Thank you." He said in a sing-songy voice. He was my first adoptive brother and was adopted when we were five. Jason was adopted when we were seven and Beth when I was fifteen.
I got dressed into grey jeans and powder blue jumper then went downstairs to get some cereal.
"Morning love." Mum said I walked into the kitchen.
"Morning, where's dad?" I asked, putting some cereal into a plastic bowl.
"He's just doing a last sweep of the house."
An hour later everyone was ready and all of our friends had gathered to wave us off. I didn't really have a best friend here because I usually stayed with Daniel and Jason, but I would miss Caroline. We all gave everyone hugs and climbed into our Audi SUV and twisted in our seats to wave goodbye. Chrissy had tears running down her face and Daniel gave her a hug.
We were driving for nearly two hours when dad pointed to a sign.
"Look, 'welcome to Forks', we're nearly there twenty minutes tops." He said. I had read about Forks and what I was seeing now didn't really fit in with what I had read about this quiet little town.
"Dad is that a Mercedes?" I asked
"It definitely looks like it." We drove past it and Beth saw it for the first time.
"That's a pretty car, I want that car. Daddy will you buy me that car?"
"I wish I could honey." At that moment a man got out of it. He looked late twenties, had pale skin and was stunningly handsome. He also had a smile on his face like he had just heard a particularly funny joke.
"I'm going to get one of those cars when I'm older." Said Beth proudly, making us all laugh.
Fifteen minutes later mum excitedly pointed to another sign.
"Look we're in La Push!" Dad and Beth cheered but the rest of us, minus mum, stayed silent.
