Hi everyone! Not a lot of people know about this story, but that few that do, I am finally going to come back to it now. It's been a very long time since I have even thought of this story but I miss writing so I am going to try and finish it. This first Chapter is re-written because it had a lot of mistakes and little by little I'll do the same for the other three chapters and continue where I left off. I hope you all enjoy it.

Summary: Sisters, Bella and Alice move out to Los Angeles to attend art and fashion school and be closer to their best friend/brother Emmett. Along the way they meet Jasper and Rosalie and together they create their own little family, but something is still missing. Not happy with his life in Chicago, Edward moves to Los Angeles to attend art school and also be closer to his childhood friends, Jasper and Rosalie. Edward and Bella never felt as though they were missing anything until they met each other.

Disclaimer: I do not claim to be Stephanie Meyer, I do not own the characters either, just the plot.

Chapter 1: Goodbye Forks, Hello L.A.!

BPOV

Never in a million years did I ever think that I would be packing up my sisters, Alice and my things into boxes and moving to Los Angeles, CA.

But here we are a couple of days after our high school graduation and we are packing up all of our things from our home that we have lived in for the last 18 years, in Forks, Washington. I love Forks, Alice and I will always come back to visit mom and dad on holidays and special occasions. But we're just ready to move on with our lives and experience more other than what Forks can provide us.

Alice wasn't always my sister, but I always had a feeling that we would end up becoming sisters from the moment I met the tiny little pixie. We met in kindergarten and instantly became friends.

Though before that it was just my dad, Charlie, and I. My biological mother, Renee, left when I was barely a year old. The last we heard of her, she lived in Jacksonville with her husband and two kids. It hurt at first when I found out about the new family she had started, it was obvious they were a lot more important to her than her first born child.

But that doesn't matter now, because I have my mom. And she loves me and she makes sure to tell Ali and I everyday of that love.

When dad and Shannon met it was the first day of school for Ali and I, the both of them were running late dropping us off and they bumped into each other in the hallway. Dad apologized and just kept on walking, but when he felt Shannon walking behind us he turned and figured they were going to same classroom, and when he got a really good look at her he feel his heart skip a beat and instantly he was in love with her. But it was a different story for Shannon, her and Ali had just moved into town that summer, from what I could remember. Shannon was a single mom who had lost her first husband the year before, when she finally told herself that her and Ali needed a change in their life. It was hard at first for her to open up to my dad, but he was patient because he knew that when she was finally ready to let him and I fully into her and Ali's life that it would be worth it.

They had been dating for a few years, when they both finally decided it was time to make the four of us a real family, Ali and I were in the fourth grade. So they got married, and dad adopted Alice and Shannon adopted me. And it has been the four of us ever since.

Now it was our final day in Forks before Ali and I hopped into our cars to start off our future in Los Angeles. I was accepted to the photography program at The Art Institute of California in Hollywood and Alice was going to FIDM to study fashion design.

But at this very moment I was sitting out on our front porch with my dad talking before we took off. I knew he was having a hard time with this move, so I just wanted to make sure that he knew we were going to be okay.

"This is really hard seeing you and your sister leave, Bells. You're both still very young, my two baby girls. But I know this is the right thing for you and Ali." Charlie said with a sad smile.

"It is dad, and I promise you will not regret letting us go" I said.

"I know I won't, you and Ali are both going accomplish a lot living out there, I just know it. But that still doesn't mean I won't worry."

I smiled at my dad. "You really do not have to worry about us. You got us this really great apartment in a safe neighborhood, plus Emmett is only a minute if not 30 seconds away from us."

"Yeah I know" He said, shaking his head.

"Everything is going to be great, you'll see."

"Okay, well why don't you go see how the packing is going on upstairs, it's starting to get late and I do not the three of you driving so much at night." Charlie says while he stands up from his seat and walks inside the house.

I groaned. "Ugh! I just came from upstairs and we are not really missing much, it's just Ali bossing Emmett around."

I hear my dad chuckle a bit while he disappears into the kitchen to continue cleaning out his guns.

Now Emmett is a trip, but I love him. He's been in our lives since Ali and I were in the first grade; he was a year older than us and in the second grade, he also lived just down the street from us. Emmett graduated last year and moved out to LA to attend UCLA and play football. That didn't last very long, he was really unhappy when he got there and ended up dropping out. He now works as a tattoo artist for a shop on Hollywood Blvd. That's what he's been doing ever since. Well except for now, he was upstairs getting us all packed and loading the majority of our boxes into his truck since he will be joining us on our little road trip. That was the only way dad was going to allow Ali and I to each drive our cars out to LA.

"Damn it Mary Alice, leave that fucking box alone! It has already been packed and ready to take down to the truck forever! If you try to re-pack it again we'll never be able to leave!" I hear Emmett yell from down the hall.

I see my mom walking up to me with a sweet smile adorning her beautiful face. "Honey why don't you get in there and try to calm those two down, they've been going at it like that since you went downstairs to talk to your dad." She has both hands on the side of my cheeks and gives me a peck on the nose.

"Sure mom." I laughed a bit.

Before she gets too far she stops me.

"By the way, how did the talk with your dad go? I know he's been worrying about this moment for weeks."

"It went pretty good, I told him he did not have to worry too much, that Emmett is going to be there. I mean we are going to live just down the hall from him."

"Yes I know that, but you know how your dad gets. Now get in there before those two kill each other."

I just nod my head and walk down the hall into my now empty room to find Ali, that barely even reaches five feet and Emmett that is built like a tank, wrestling each other for a box. That's just how it has always been with those two. Ali was always trying to boss Emmett around and Emmett was always trying not to let it happen.

"I said no Alice, I'm taking the damn, stupid box downstairs and that's final. I love you and I'm sorry that I'm doing this but we are done here, ok?"

"Fine take the stupid box!" Alice says while stomping her little feet on the ground like a petulant child.

Emmett walks by me and kisses the top of my head and whispers "Try to calm her down; we're leaving in five minutes."

"Okay." I whisper back to him.

"Hey Alice can you believe that we're finally doing this." I say while standing next to her and looking out the same window.

She turns to me and smiles that same creepy smile she gets when she knows something more than she's telling me. "I know and once we get there it's going to be amazing, just wait and see. Oh and sorry about the whole box thing I know you told me not to mess with Emmett today, but you know how I can't resist getting him all riled up." She says while trying to control her laughter.

I chuckle. "Yeah I know, I swear you are going to give him a damn aneurysm one day , now let's get this show on the road it's going to be a long 19 hours of driving."

We walk downstairs while taking in all our memories of our childhood home. We say bye to mom and dad on the front porch. I hop into my Mini Cooper and Ali gets into her shiny grey Mazda and we take off and follow behind Emmett who is driving in front of us.

We are finally going to live out our dreams and start our adventures, I cannot wait to see what the future has in store for us when we get there.

So I hope you all enjoy, again lol. I am going to try really hard to continue and finish this story all the way through. Let me know what you think.
