Twilight: Chapter 1- What to Do

You know that feeling? When you suddenly miss someone or something that it hurts so much that you wanna die? Well I felt like that. I felt that I was losing another person that was close to me. Subconsciously, I moved my wedding ring around my ring finger as I said, "You don't have to do this, Izzy. You could live with me."

Bella turned and looked at me with a sad smile. Isabella, Bella, or Izzy (as I call her) was my only human friend. The only person I got attached to after Sage, and the rest of the family. I loved her like she was my niece, and I would do anything to keep the hair on that pretty little head of her's safe.

"-I know you don't want me to go. But I'll be back to visit all the time!" I tuned back in to listen to Bella, but immediately detected the slight tremble in her tone telling me she was lying. I smirked and said, "You're still a terrible liar."

Bella frowned and I said, "I'll visit you all the time." She smiled as she walked back towards me, carrying her cactus.

"Why do you even have that thing?" I asked her, as we walked over to her driveway, where her step-father, Phil, and her mother, Renee, were loading up the van. As I glanced at Renee, I couldn't help but scowl.

Not to be bragging or anything, but I practically made that woman the decent mother she is today. She still did party and have fun, but not as much as she used to since I met Bella. She was nothing compared to that now. She actually took care of Bella, acted on what was wrong and right- actually mothered the girl a bit. All thanks to my compulsion on her.

"-Okay?" I zoned back in and said, "What?"

"You weren't listening, were you?" Bella asked with a laugh. I rolled my eyes and said, "No I wasn't. Now repeat what you said." Bella smiled and said, "I said I'll call you every day, and make sure you're kept up with everything involved in my life in Forks." She definitely knew me well.

"Will do," I said with a grin, "Are you sure you don't want me to come with you? Remember, Charlie adores me…" I smirked, thinking back to when Charlie came and visited Bella back when she was sixteen.

Charlie completely adored me. I don't know what it was, but he loved having me around. Claimed I was good company for Bella and 'kept her happy.' I had a feeling he thought I was Bella's girlfriend, but I was having too much fun to let him know and break the bubble of 'Bella's lesbian, let's have a party!' I didn't have to pop his bubble because Bella did by talking to Charlie about how I was married.

I was snapped out of my thoughts, once again, as I got in my Jeep. Bella got in next to me, knowing that this would be the last she would see of me for a while. I grabbed the water bottle in the back that was black, and no one could see through. It held the one thing I couldn't possibly live without- blood.

I took a sip after slipping on my sunglasses and drove down the road, one-handed. I was in the middle of nodding my head to an ACDC song when Bella said, "I hate when you drive like this." I looked over at her saying, "What do you mean?"

"You're not really paying attention to the road," Bella scolded, "You're one-handed, you're listening to your music, and you're drinking you're energy drink." I told her it was an energy drink when I asked her once to hand me the cup a couple months back. She asked what it was, and energy drink was the first thing that came to mind.

"Relax, Izzy," I said with a smirk as I put my blood down, "You'll survive the ride to the airport. Don't know how you'll survive the plane ride because those things are scary but-" I was cut off by Bella's giggles. I narrowed my eyes and said, "What?"

"You're still scared of airplanes," Bella giggled. I rolled my eyes and muttered, "Humans…"

Bella looked over at me with her eyebrows scrunched and said, "Yeah, we're humans…" My eyes widened behind my sunglasses and I internally cussed. She wasn't supposed to hear that.

"Yeah, just stating a fact," I said with a grin, knowing that I fooled her. She couldn't be compelled, so I had to be very careful around her. I realized though, that we were already at the airport. Bloody Phoenix, had to be so crowded and have an airport so close.

I got out and Bella got out slower than I did. I sighed and put my hands on my hips saying, "Izzy, I'm the one being left behind here. Not you."

"But I love Phoenix, and leaving you behind is like leaving part of myself," Bella sighed, "You're my older sister." I smiled at the feeling left in my heart. I then laughed and said, "Thanks but don't let Sage hear you say that, she'll kill you."

Bella nodded and said, "Yeah, thanks for the heads up."

Sage met Bella back when she was sixteen too. I had just moved in, and Sage was staying with me for a couple of months so I could catch up with my sister-in-law. I helped Sage as much as possible in the first six hundred years when Finn got daggered by Klaus, but then she pushed me away saying I needed to spend time with Kol before the same thing happened to him. I got a good one hundred and fifty years with my husband (give or take a few years) before Klaus found us.

"Cory, go!" Kol told me desperately as he spotted Klaus. I held his hands tighter and said, "No, death til us part, remember?"

Kol smiled and held my face in his hands saying, "I love you so much, love, but you have to go. I'm not letting him have you too."

I let out a choked sob when he kissed me and then pushed me away-

"-Cory! Are you okay!?" I shook myself out of the horrible memory of Kol pushing me away to save me from Klaus. I had never loved him more in that moment. Instead of thinking about the memory more, I smiled at Bella and said, "Yeah, I'll be fine. Let's go catch your flight. Next thing you know, I'll be there, whisking you away to live with me."

Bella laughed and said, "You know I won't do that to Charlie."

I frowned and said, "I can dream, can't I?"

Bella laughed again and I smiled at the seventeen year old. She had no worries in the world; I would make sure that she didn't get involved in any of the mess that Sage and I were in with Klaus about our husbands. It was our business, and Sage and I didn't want to drag her in unless it was absolutely necessary- I was hoping it never would be.

As I stood at the gate next to Bella, I hugged her and said, "You've got one week without me. Can you survive?"

Bella's eyebrows furrowed and said, "What do you-" She was cut off by me showing her the ticket I had just bought to Seattle, Washington that was ready to set flight in one week's time at eleven pm. I would bring my car, drive to Bella's house, and be right in time to drive Bella to school. I had it all planned in the process of the ten minutes walking to the terminal.

"When did you buy this?" Bella asked me, shocked. I shrugged and said, "While you were going through security."

Bella sighed, then smiled and said, "Bring Sage sometime soon, okay? I miss my other older sister."

I giggled and said, "I'll tell her when I call her tonight. She'll be glad to hear that you miss her for sure."

"How's her search for Klaus going by the way?" Bella asked as we sat down. We were sat between a Marine, and an old couple. I sat by the Marine, rather than sitting by the older couple because they reminded me of myself and Kol… when I still had him. I miss him so much.

"Are you thinking about Kol again?" Bella asked, sadly. All I had told Bella about Finn and Kol was that they went missing and Sage and I were on a search to find them. We were convinced that their brother, Niklaus, had them and the police had given up, proclaiming they were dead. Bella cried her eyes out the whole night after I told her that story. Sad part is, is that I made it all up except for the fact that we were convinced that Klaus had them- but we knew that for fact since I saw him dagger Kol.

"No closer than she was before," I sighed. Bella softly put a hand on my arm but then her flight was called. I hugged her tightly and said, "Call me when you get off that plane, or I will kick your ass."

Bella laughed and said, "Sad thing is I know that you're not lying."

I grinned and said, "Have fun, call me, text me, I'll be there in a week."

"One week," Bella said after she kissed her Mom and hugged Phil awkwardly goodbye. I don't know why she was so awkward with the man. He seemed awesome in my book. He watched football and baseball with me, we argued like two old men when one of our teams was losing, and we bet against each other like it was nobody's business. He was awesome.

"One week," I said, "Seven days; one hundred and sixty eight hours; ten thousand and eighty minutes; six hundred four thousand, eight hundred seconds!"

"I'm not even going to ask how you know those numbers," Bella laughed. She waved goodbye to us and I sighed as I watched her get on the bloody plane.

The only thought running through my head as I exited the airport- what was I going to do now?

AN: I've been meaning to write this and it's finally here.

BTW Cory's birthname is Cora, but she hates it so people call her Cory.
