We had spent half the night and the entire morning so far, in the massive closet that was situated in Alice and Jasper's bedroom. Not that they used the room in the literal sense however; we were surrounded by rows upon endless rows of clothes that were handpicked by the little fashion obsessed pixie and I knew for a certain fact that only a couple of the said rows belonged to Jasper. Alice really did have a problem. Anyway we had spent the last two hours in front of Alice's mirror, where she was trying, and failing to control our hair. This was a fate that Alice had not encountered before, but she wasn't about to give up. I'd thought about telling her to a few times, but she would have only growled at me. I knew better than that. A glance to my twin and it was clear that she was thinking the same thing from the expression she wore on her face.
"Alice!" Rebecca and I groaned in impatient unison, "We aren't dolls." I added in a frustrated mutter, but a look from Alice silenced any further comment as she added sweetly,
"Guys. Shut up, you're ruining my fun."
My twin sister; Becca and I, had recently been adopted into the Cullen family, and today was our official first day at school. Yes, nothing that unusual, but this was different. This was our first day at school as vampires. We had only been transformed a month ago and we still had the bright red eyes and new born strength. And for your information no we will not go wild and kill everyone. We were born with amazing self control, just like Bella. Well...not as perfect, occasionally one of us would slip slightly, but for some unknown reason the other always noticed and stopped them. Carlisle claimed it to be a power, but we didn't agree, as twin sisters, we just knew each other so well.
Mentioning powers we do have them though. For example, Becca can manipulate emotions a little like Jasper except not as varied; she only has the power to make people happy. I had the, I suppose useful, ability to knock people out, simply by smiling and thinking the right things. I guess you could say my power was similar to that of Jane and Alec. But don't take that the wrong way. I am not a sadistic person.
Just as we prepared to have a full scale revolution against Alice, Jasper strolled casually into the room. He must have sensed the tense emotions in the room.
"Ahh Jazz, please tell me you have come to rescue me from your wife" I pleaded,
"Actually I have" he said with a grin. I guess he had suffered as we had. Jasper suddenly looked startled, I just laughed knowing exactly what he was thinking.
"Alice, what have you been doing to these two? You wouldn't believe how relieved they are to be out of your clutches." Alice pouted and gave Becca and I a look that clearly said 'Just you wait until after school.' before leaving the room with her husband. We ran down the stairs at vampire speed, just because we could, and the fact that it amused us. Emmett was leaning on the door frame of the garage.
"Tut tut. Being late on your first day" he shook his head for effect.
"Shut up Emmett." Our voices rang in melodic unison.
We had to get a ride to school with Emmett and Rosalie, because technically we weren't old enough to drive yet. Not that it mattered we never would be, we were kind of stuck at fifteen now. Carlisle had promised to let us drive once were of the legal age, we had just agreed up front. But now as we climbed into the back of Rose's car I was thinking maybe we should have argued a bit more. Don't get me wrong, I love Emm, even if he does spend most of the time annoying us to death. But Rose, well she was completely different; to put it nicely, she practically HATED us.
We pulled in next to Alice's Porsche. Alice was sat on the hood smiling and Jazz was leaning against it looking very, very nervous.
"Sheesh. Calm sown will you Jazz!" Becca exclaimed, "you're lack of faith is quite insulting." I nodded in my agreement, I was with Becca there was no need for Jazz to look so anxious. Nothing was going to happen and even if it did Alice would see it coming. Alice climbed off the bonnet of her car and skipped off behind Emm and Rose looking very happy about something. I started to walk across the black top behind her wondering what was going on, but one look from Jazz stopped me dead in my tracks. I nudged Becca and whispered,
"Are you making Alice happy?"
"No" Becca replied "it's not me." we both turned to look at Jazz questioningly, but it was obvious from his expression that it wasn't him; besides Alice hated him using his power on her.
"Girls can I talk to you" we heard Jazz say quietly. 'Great.' I thought 'we were about to get a talk from Jazz on how to behave.'
"Rebecca. Victoria." Becca and I exchanged a look at the use of our full names; looks like Jazz had gone into Major Jasper Whitlock mode. We both looked around to check there was no around to witness this before giving Jazz our full attention. We had learnt this from the first time we experienced Major Jasper, I hadn't really been paying that much attention to him and he had gotten rather angry.
"Right girls, if today at any time you feel the slightest bit tempted by anyone around you. I want you to get up and leave immediately; there is no shame in it you are only a month old." I may have looked like I was paying attention to Jazz, but in my head I was thinking 'Honestly Jazz this is a bit patronizing.'
"Do you understand?" Jazz asked sternly,
"Yes." we muttered frustrated, and turned to walk off across the parking lot.
"Hang on."
"WHAT?" I demanded annoyance seeping through into my tone.
"Just wanted to say, don't use your powers on anyone. And that includes your teachers"
I just laughed at this before grabbing my twins hand and dragging her off across the parking lot. "See you at lunch" I heard Jazz say as I kept walking.
