Blue Swan could feel her sisters disgruntlement as she sighed with disappointment. She turned to Bella who was seated next to her on the airplane, and spoke with a giddy smile.

"You're being too negative Bells. Look on the bright side, we're finally landing!" Blue squealed with excitement in her seat, her emotions and actions causing Bella's lips to tug up in amusement. Blue hated to be confined to one isolated space for too long a period of time. She preferred to be outdoors.

"And you're being too positive. Your emotions are making me fidget." Bella huffed in faked indignation. "Besides, how can there be a bright side to a dull town that never even sees the sun." Despite her words and aversion to Forks, Bella couldn't help but let her sisters emotions rub off on her. Whenever one was happy, so was the other. Blue smiled triumphantly at Bella as she felt her emotions lighten. Blue reached her paint stained hand over to Bella's and squeezed it.

"We're going to be happy here, Bells, I know it." Bella's deep chocolate eyes met her sisters wide and hopeful blues and smiled at her fondly.

"You're ever the optimist, Miridia." Blue pouted at her sisters use of her given name. Like Bella, Blue hated her given name, and when they were just children they gave each other their nicknames and insisted on going by them. And as a result of Bella's stubborn nature and Blue's persistent one, the names stuck.

"And you're ever the pessimist, Isabella."

Bella smirked in amusement at her sisters reply, "Touché". Although the girls were twins, Bella was born three hours earlier. And though this wasn't much of a difference, she always felt older then her oblivious sister. This caused her to be occasionally maternal to her, especially because of who their mother was. While Bella loved to read, Blue preferred painting or exploring outdoors, rather then the romance novels Bella was engrossed with. Blue always had a more free spirited personality like her mother's. This couldn't be seen in her perpetually shy demeanor while in public, but it could be seen in her state of dress. Since she was a child, Blue was infatuated with the seventies. She loved to sew herself long floral skirts and embroider her jeans and white blouses with various colorful designs. While Blue lived in the colorful world of her paintings and dreams, She had a kind and patient nature to her that was beyond her years.

Bella reached over to Blue's hand and squeezed it as she had done earlier. "If you love it in Forks, then so will I. But I am not going on any hikes." Blue laughed at her sister recalling the last time she dragged her out for a hike. Unlike Bella, Blue was not clumsy, though that word could be used if she was seen in the kitchen.

"But Bella, there are going to be so many new landscapes for me to paint. You know, the Olympic Peninsula is considered a very beautiful area." Bella simply shook her head at Blue's excitement as she continued to rave about the exploration opportunities they would get.

The girls had turned seventeen a few months earlier and were in their senior year of high school. They were moved a grade ahead in elementary school due to their individual intelligence and maturity. While Blue was more of a free spirit like her mother, she wasn't as spontaneous and more content. Where Bella was headstrong and responsible, Blue was tractable to a fault. Her gullible nature was a strong indicator for Bella's protectiveness. The girls' strange twin connection in which they could sense each others thoughts and feelings caused them to be isolated from other children their age. As a result neither were very social and never really had friends. Though this was fine with them, they were best friends, and as long as they had each other, they were happy.
