We were just relaxing waiting on everyone to get home when Alice had the vision.
She suddenly stood up with a gasp. She put her hand over her mouth "Oh NO! NO!" "Oh my god!"
Jasper was at her side instantly. He wrapped his arms around her and murmured comforting words into her ear. That's really all he could do at the moment.
I was sitting in the chair across from where she was standing. I tried to read what she was seeing, but it wasn't clear yet.
"Alice, what is it that you see?" She looked positively petrified. I don't think I'd seen my sister delicate little face ever look so distorted.
"There's been an accident!" Her voice was a barely above a whisper, but I heard her perfectly.
"Who? Who Alice?"
She shook her head frantically from side to side. "I don't know!" she sounded pitiful. "Oh, God!"
"I see a car flipping upside down, it's bad, oh god, it's horrible!"
"WHO ALICE?" I was almost yelling at her. I couldn't make out what she was seeing and it was so frustrating. "Alice?"
She looked at me with huge frightened eyes. "Edward, Oh my God!" Alice would have been crying if we could actually cry.
It was at that moment her vision became crystal clear to me. "NO! It can't be right!" I couldn't believe it. She had to have made a mistake. This couldn't happen. THIS WOULDN"T HAPPEN!

The day started out as any other day. I pulled into the school parking lot, Alice and Jasper rode with me, while Rosalie and Emmett rode together in Rose's car.
We were used to all of the stares we got from the students. We'd been at Forks High School for almost 2 years now. Kids, mere children. They were so simple with their thoughts. "Does he like me? Did she really say that?" It was always the same and so trivial.
Alice practically bounced out of the car, with Jasper right behind her. I took my time getting out. It was all so boring. Day after day, year after year. Such monotony.
"Edward, what is taking you so long?" Alice asked me in her trill little voice.
"I'm coming Alice. Calm down." Chuckling a little a stepped out of the car. I looked around at the other students. They were excited. It seemed we were getting the new student today. It was almost all everyone was thinking about.
"Yea! Someone new!" Alice clapped her hands as she said this. "Aren't you excited?"
"What took you so long? Slow poke." Emmett smacked my back as he said this.
"Very funny. I chose to drive somewhat normal today. Unlike your mate, who did, what 100?"
"I drove at MY normal speed. It's not my fault that the humans have such slow reflexes" Rosalie was looking at her reflection in the side mirror of my car as she said this.
"You look beautiful babe!" Emmett pulled her to him as they started walking into the main building behind Alice and Jasper.
Alice skipped back to us smiling. "I think the new girl is going to be very pretty and that she will like me."
"Really?" Emmett laughed. "Why you?"
"Oh!" Alice spun on her little heels and skipped back to Jasper. I watched as Jasper bent towards her and whispered into her ear. He was always able to calm her down.
"Aww, I was just kidding Alice." Emmett hollered after her. She looked back at him and rolled her eyes, but she was smiling.
"Well, as lovely as this sibling exchange is, I do believe I need to get to class." I turned down the hallway to my first class.
Just another day…..
