Disclaimer: I DO NOT own Twilight. This is just a fanfic.

A.N.: This is my first fanfic so please review and tell me what you think. I'm not afraid of criticism so tell the truth. I will try to update as much as possible, but like you, life is busy and unpredictable. In that case, I am so so sooooo sorry in advance for when and if it takes me to long to update or reply. I am also not one for author notes so you wouldn't see them that often. Thank you and I hope you enjoy.

Summary: Bella is slowly going blind and moves back to Forks to live with her father and brothers before she can't see anymore. Who will she meet their?

So now, on with the story.

Introduction

BPOV

I can't believe that I am on my way back to Forks, Washington. On the whole plane ride from Phoenix, Arizona., the only thing I could think of is why I left. Well, that, and the family I'm going to see again. I guess you might say, sort of see again.

I am really going to miss my mom, Renee. She is my best friend. I might even miss my step-dad, Phil. He was pretty cool and made my mom really happy. But I just had to get away. I'm just sick of all the pity and over helpfulness that everyone always gave me. You see, I have an eye condition called Retinitis Pigmentosa. Basically, it starts with night blindness. Then, over time, I will develop tunnel vision to the point that it feels like I'm looking though a straw. Finally it's total blindness with no cure. You know, I might be losing my sight, but I am far from blind right now. I do have night blindness and the rest of my vision is a little blurry, but that's it. For now at least.

I do, however, have a small group of friends that never babied or pitied me. They are Alice, Rosalie, Maxine, and Teresa. We all lived across the street from each other and went to the same school. I am really going to miss them. Alice and Rosalie are both seventeen and juniors. Alice is short with short, black, spiky hair with green eyes. Rosalie is tall, blond and has blue eyes. Maxine and Teresa are both sixteen and in my year. Maxine is of average height with dark blond hair with pink streaks and dark green eyes. Teresa is around my height with reddish-brown hair and gray eyes. I love them all. They are the sisters I never had.

This makes me think about the rest of my family, the ones I was going to go live with. My dad is Charlie Swan. He works as a judge in Seattle, but prefers to live in the small town of Forks. He has short brown hair and brown eyes like me. I can't wait to see him again, along with my four, very overprotective, older brothers. Emmett is eighteen, a senior, and has short, curly, dark brown hair and light brown eyes. Jasper is the same age and in the same year as Emmett, but they are not twins ( AN: This is, apparently, very possible. They could be eleven months apart. ). He has blond hair and blue eyes. Mathew and Andrew are seventeen, juniors and fraternal twins. Mathew is taller of the two, has black hair and dark gray eyes. Andrew is a little shorter with dark brown hair and green eyes. I'm the youngest of the bunch, sixteen and a sophomore. I am short and plain with brown eyes and hair down to my shoulder. How we all look nothing alike is beyond me, but that is what happened.

I haven't seen them in years. I wonder how much they have changed. We all have been keeping in touch though e-mail and phone calls for as long as I can remember. And to top this all off, I am going to start Forks High half way though their first semester in about a week . . . . .

I CAN'T WAIT! ( note the sarcasm.)
