(BPOV)
I was under the impression that mum and dad seriously wanted us to move to Harvard where they were teaching. Then one day they convinced us it was the best thing. Three, 20 year old girls, one of them was a psycho and the other one was a fashion queen, going to England for Harvard or most likely the parties and clubs. What could go wrong?
My name is Bella Cullen and my mother and father, Esme and Carlisle Cullen, are both professors at the famous university, Harvard. We were offered to join, yes I will repeat, OFFERD to join because of our so called talents.
Rosalie was of course the fashion queen of everything so she was studying clothes, shoes ect. Rosalie was the strongest most caring of the three sisters. She was also beautiful like my other sister Alice but me I was just plain against them. Rosalie had blonde waves cascading down her back and a body that would make any boy fall at her feet. Since we are on the point of boys Rosalie has had a numerous amount of boyfriends and it didn't help that she didn't like most of them.
Alice, My adorable, crazy sister, the psycho as I mentioned before. She has so much grace in her step that she had to become some sort of rock star. She danced occasionally but she loved to sing and write her own music. Alice was a short girl but she had the strength of a giant. She was always hyped up and she always had a smile on her face. Her pixie like hair was short and spiky and like Rosalie her body would make any man drool.
And me? Well I was average height with plain brown hair and brown eyes. Compared to Rosalie's piercing golden eyes or Alice's blue eyes mine were dull. I was going to Harvard to study dance. I had a special liking for dancing, when It came to walking or running I was hopeless but on the dance floor that was a different matter all together.
We were almost done packing up all our stuff from the little apartment that we owned in new York. It was around 6 in the morning and we could already here the cars outside beeping in the typical American morning greeting. I was not a morning person and was currently crashed on the couch after a whole night of instructing people my age how to do a single turn. It was ridiculous I thought but I got home around three, had a piece of toast and jumped into bed only to be shaken awake by my nagging sister, Alice at the time of exactly 4:30. Sometimes it sucked a whole lot to be me but I loved my sisters and I loved my city so as a good sister would, I crashed on the couch and instantly started snoring.
"Bella! Get up we're leaving now!" I heard Rosalie's chiming voice slash through my dreams of me watching myself sleep and vice versa.
"hmmm" I mumbled as I was yanked up buy the strongest and by far tiniest set of hands. My eyes snapped open when I felt a burst of freezing cold water go down my spine. I screamed and jumped up and down until finally all of the ice cubes that Rosalie had shoved in my shirt were on the wooden floor. I sent a glare over to Rosalie who was smiling at me with a box in her hands but I couldn't help crack a smile when I saw Alice's face. I was twisted into such a state to stop herself laughing I thought she might actually hurt herself soon.
Rosalie shoved the box she was holding into my hands and turned and grabbed another one behind her and then pasted it onto me again. Once I had at least three huge boxes piled high in my arms I managed to say behind them.
"ahhhhh Rosalie? Don't you think it's a little dangerous to-"I started?
"you can manage. Skip if you have to!" she said cutting me off.
I so desperately wanted to send her daggers but at the moment I couldn't see anything except cardboard. I took one step slowly and smiled. So far so good. Alice giggled lightly at the sight of me nodding to myself once I had taken another faithful step.
"shut up" I snapped when she giggled once again when I stumbled on my third step.
Rosalie's footsteps came back up to the apartment and I heard her sigh.
"give them here" she said in an I-can't-believe-you-haven't-moved sort of voice.
She quickly snatched the boxes off me and skipped out to the car. I beamed at Alice and she high fived me. All the boxes were gone and so was the furniture that was being sent over as we stood there. Alice and I turned and linked arms and looked at our previous home for the last 3 years. She squeezed my arm lightly when Rosalie told us to hurry up.
We turned around and stepped onto the path that winded down to our car. Charlie our apartment owner came out and gave us a hug.
"see you later ladies" he said smiling nicely.
We smiled back and turned again to our car. As we walked up to the driver's side I remembered Rosalie when she had first seen the black, shiny porch. All she could say was 'shiny!' while she traced her fingers over the car. I giggled as I remembered and Alice sent me an odd look. I put my fingers on the car and said in a very sarcastic and patronizing tone "Shiny!" Alice laughed and Rosalie glared at me but a hint of a smile played at her mouth when I hopped in the back.
The boot was obviously full because there were a few boxes in the back with me but we had done extremely well. Of course Alice needed about the suit cases to get everything in but we improvised and got it all into 1 suitcase, without all the shoes. It was tricky thought because Alice and I had to sit on it while Rosalie tried to zip it up. It took us about an hour to do it yesterday and then another two hours to zip up rose's bag and then the shoe bag so all I all we had three suit cases and a hell of a lot of boxes but it was alright with me as long as I still got to dance.
Alice turned on the radio and put it full volume at a total of 38 bars but we were used to it. Her favorite song hey boys and girls by evermore was playing. We sung at the top of our lungs and when passing cars looked at us strangely I would poke my tongue out at them which would cause us all to laugh and then it started all over again.
Once the song was over and a couple of adds were on Rosalie turned the volume down and looked at me through the review mirror.
"bells you look tired I'm gonna pull in on Michael's cafe and get a coffee do you want one?"
At the mention of coffee my brain overloaded and I nodded vigorously. Alice started hopping up and down in her seat but stopped when rose gave her a your-not-getting-coffee look. I laughed at her sudden sadness but she perked right up again when Michael waved to her. She waved back to her current boyfriend who was going to meet us over in England in a week or two. Rose pulled up into a reserved spot and Alice jumped out of the car and skipped over to Michael where she gave him a quick hug and a kiss on the cheek. He smiled at rose and I as we headed to the front counter.
"morning ladies coffee for two is suppose?" he looked at me kindly
I frowned. Did I look that bad? Rose nodded and ushered me to a booth. We sat down and watched as Alice followed Michael around like a lost puppy to its new owner. I shook my head and sighed. Anything could happen over in England but my mood brightened when I thought of mum and dad wait for us at their newly refurbished house. Rose nudged me when a guy walked past and checked me out. I wasn't interested but it was a nice pat to my ego. I winked at him and his sudden determination faltered a little bit. I giggled and waved to him when he walked away and turned back to rose. She looked at me and smirked.
"that was cruel" she said her perfect voice chiming in my ears
"I don't mean to be" I said as innocently as I could but as hard as I tried I couldn't hold back a small laugh.
"you're a bad liar Bella Cullen" she said playfully
"I know. It sucks a whole heap but I get used to it" I said winking at her.
She shook her head and turned her attention back to Alice who was currently skipping back to our table. She sat down and looked over my shoulder and then back to me with her eyebrow raised.
"foolish boy" I said waving her off
"handsome nobody" she smirked at me
"perfect stranger" rose finished by nudging me.
I shook my head at the girls as they giggled at our little word game. Whenever a guy looked like he wanted us we would say those three lines. The lines would change from each situation. I couldn't help laugh when the girls high-fived. Michael came over with a smile plastered on his face with coffee. At the moment he was my favorite of the group. He placed a double strength cappuccino in front of me and I was in pure heaven. I sipped the drink relishing the taste of my taste buds coming alive. As I swallowed more of my drink I could feel myself become alive and active and wanting to move. I placed my cup down empty and clapped my hands.
"Lets move" I said as I jumped up and grabbed my wallet.
Alice jumped up beside me and we skipped down to the cash register. I paid Michael the total fee and paced up and down the door way waiting for rose. Alice kissed Michael good bye and headed out the door. Rose was the next one to come she paid Michael as well and then walked over to the excited and bouncing me. She looked at me worried but I dismissed it and flew out the door. I met Alice at the door of the car and we started to do some hand clapping games we only did when we were little or someone was hyped up enough to actually be bothered to do it, which was me most of the time because I had a coffee every morning. Alice didn't!
Rosalie took out her keys and unlocked the doors. I jumped in and so did Alice. It was amazing what two fully grown women could get up to when both, well no, when one of them was on coffee and the other was just a psycho. Rose let the top down and we screamed in delight as she backed out of the car park. Alice waved to Michael and then he was lost in the scenery as rose sped down the street. The wind steamed my hair behind my head and it felt exhilarating. I laughed casually as we pulled onto the main highway and then we were on our way to the airport.
The trip to the airport wasn't long so we didn't have time to get board or for my coffee bar to lower. Rosalie parked her car in the shipping area. Her car and our boxes were going by boat to England. That left us with the few items we had packed in our carry bags as awe wondered up to the book in desk. The steward behind the desk looked up and his mouth dropped open slightly. We could tell it was at rose. This was the time when I really appreciated our looks. Rose pulled out her full charm and used it against him. Alice and I followed.
"Tickets for Rosalie, Bella and Alice Cullen" she said motioning to us.
The man stuttered for a little minuet but then quickly brought himself together and flashed a seductive grin at rose. Alice snickered at him and nudged me. I giggled as he shuffled around his files.
"Uh miss Cullen?" he asked hesitantly
Rosalie nodded with enthusiasm and I could tell her patients were running thin and she was trying to hurry him up.
"Um" he mumbled as he flipped through more files. Before rose could shout at him something along the lines of him being a total idiot and to hurry up I placed a hand on her arm and stepped in front of her attack. I turned on the charm and smiled at him.
"Excuse me sir?" I said politely.
When I got his attention I could practically hear what he was thinking another hot chick! I LOVE MY JOB!!! I shook my head at the thought and looked at him again.
"We are going to England first class" I said smiling
Alice stepped forward and tapped the screen. The guy looked at it closely and nodded like an idiot. He printed out the tickets and handed them over. I could tell it took everything rose had not to snatch the tickets out of his hands and march away with her pretty little head held high. I smiled and thanked him and then quickly walked away. I turned to the very cheery Alice.
"How'd you know it was on the screen?" I asked
She shrugged "I guessed"
I let it drop because I knew she was telling the truth. We reached customs and I took out my phone and my belt and my bag and dumped it in the tray. I walked through the metal detector and it didn't go off. The guards looked disappointed that they didn't get to use their hand held metal detectors. Perverts I thought. I grabbed my stuff and put my belt back on as I watched each of my sisters go through and notice the exact same thing as I did. Rose had a disgusted look on her face as she watched as hop through the metal detector. It went off sadly. Alice skipped back out and took her shoes off before the guards could come and walked back through the big detector. Silent. I silently thanked god as she picked up her things and we walked into the waiting area.
Alice hopped along on one leg as she tried to get her shoes on. When she had achieved her goal she dumped her stuff in the nearest chair and sat down with a huff. We looked at her oddly. It wasn't right for Alice to be tired.
"Perverts" she muttered
I figured it out pretty quickly and sat down next to her while placing a hand over her shoulder. She didn't like people like those guards and neither do rose or I but we kept up our profile. Soon enough she was back on her feet and hopping up in down in anticipation. Rose shook her head and stood up while helping me up. We all walked to the check in counter where a grumpy looking woman stood. Rosalie dumped her bag on the scales and gave the lady the tickets. The lady (her name badge said Janis) snatched the tickets away with a huff and started to type in numbers. She shoved them back to Rosalie and Alice placed a calming hand on rose's arm. Janis motioned us to place or bags on the scale and we all passed with flying colours so to speak.
We boarded the plane into gold class. I sat on the isle side because I got sick if I even thought about the height we were getting at. As if Alice was a mind reader she placed to pills in my hand and a water bottle in the other. I smiled at her in thanks and then she turned back to rose to chat about the house mum and dad were living in. I closed my eyes and relaxed into the chair. I loved flying first class because you could sleep and talk as if you were at home on the couch.
"Ahem" my eyes snapped open and I looked to my left.
There was an air host standing over my chair. He smiled kindly and asked me if I wanted anything to drink or eat. My breath caught because he was absolutely gorgeous.
And I wanted him!
"oh yes thank you" I said in my seductive voice.
It was amazing on what you could pick up when you were sisters because at that moment Alice poked me and I squirmed. He looked at me oddly and excused himself. I knew he wasn't interested. He probably thought I had some mental dieses or something. I whipped around to Alice.
"what?!" I demanded all the fake wanting in my voice had vanished.
Alice shook her head at me when rose answered.
"host is off limits! Only players never keepers. I should know" she said as she tapped the side of her nose.
I sighed and leaned back into my chair thinking about the wonders of England that lay in wait.
BTW: hottie host was NOT Edward ;)
