Hey Guys!
I´ve finished a new chapter :)
Hope you like it... have fun!
Thanks to my beta 1h2a34!
After nine hours of driving, I woke up and threw a searching glance out the window. So far I saw nothing but trees. How long would it take? The long car ride got on my nerves, just like the whole thing with the move. But I already knew how I could thwart the plan of my parents.
Before I finished my thought, the sky turned black and we drove straight into a huge snow storm. Dad was confused and turned on the radio while he was trying to concentrate on the traffic. Everyone listened to the radio announcer who just gave a severe weather warning.
We received the message that 200 miles south of Forks,Washington a sudden snowstorm has broken out at this moment. The meteorologists are standing in front of a riddle because the blizzard was not apparent on the weather images. Surprising is that such a snow storm would break out in mid-August. Are these the consequences of global warming? To all motorists who are currently on the roads, we advise to driving cautiously and possibly to use snow chains.
With a grin on my face I sat on the back seat and watched the snowflakes that flew past my window. Does my father has snow chains? Probably not! If I had known that it would be snowing I would have packed a sledge in the trunk. Anyway, my plan was raised, I thought at least, because I did not notice that Dad looked at me in the rearview mirror and saw my diabolical grin.
I winced as he yelled,"Lillian Theresa Cullen! Stop to using your gift fur such nonsense"
Everyone in our family had a gift, but mine was by far the coolest. I can control the weather, but i´m not allowed to use my gift, unless my parents are planning another boring camping trip.
"But Dad ..." I whined.
"No!" he cut me off before he went on "Even if it was be the end of the world, we would move to Forks. So, stop it right now!" He underscored the last statement with a low growl which signaled me that it would be better for me to obey him.
I solved my mental tension, so that the snow storm had disappeared and it rained again, before I´ve murmured a faint "I'm sorry Daddy,". Even if it would be the end of the world we would move to Forks? Where is the logic? If the world would go under, there would be no Forks anymore, but I will not discuss it with dad.. Fate does not mean well by me. I´m doomed to move to Forks because I was powerless in relation of my Dad´s decisions.
The further journey was uneventful and boring. Alice and Rosalie slept beside me until Mum turned around and said, "Wake up kids, we're almost there"
What? That´s Forks? I looked out the window on the right side and saw the sign "The City of Forks Welcomes You" I knew it, I thought. We move into the smallest town in the world, surrounded by countless trees. My suspicion was confirmed when Dad drove to the city center. There weren´t any decent clothing stores or shoe shops.
"Um, Dad, where are all the stores?" I asked, hoping that it was a bad joke.
My father looked in the rearview mirror and smiled, "I'm sorry darling, but to go shopping, you have to drive to Port Angeles"
"Ok! Welcome to Forks? I think welcome to hell sounds better" I replied sarcastically. I could not resist making the stupid comment because the mood of Alice and Rosalie was also in the basement now.
We drove straight before Dad was driving into a small road between the woods. Oh No! This can not really be true! We live in the woods? Can it get worse? Far away from civilization, Dad bought a house. On the other hand i must say he had taste. I liked the house, but the only disadvantage was the forest. My parents love nature and that´s the reason why we usually spent our camping trips in the woods. I personally had nothing against forests, but I don´t like the residents like spiders, ants and mosquitoes which I can welcome now as permanent guests in my room.
I grabbed my backpack and got out of the car. I absolutely had to check the internet to inform myself what Forks had to offer. Our parents hadn´t told us much about the city except that they had lived here for a few years. But I couldn´t remember because firstly I was a human and secondly I was still a baby.
With my countless bags I made my way to the entrance. Edward he opend the door didn´t help me with any of my bags instead he opened the door and slammed it in my nose.
"Thank you!" I shouted while all of my bags were falling out of my hands.
Emmett laughed behind me "Come on sweetie I´ll help you" he said lifting my bags from the ground and slung it casually around his shoulders.
I thanked him and immediately went to my new room. It was not very big, but I liked it. I had two large windows in my room and a staircase that led to a roof terrace. Mum had furnished and decorated the whole house before we moved here. She had painted my room in my favorite color, purple, and my bedding and curtains were purple.
I could not see any disadvantage to my room. Ok, except for one! My room was right next to Edwards room, which meant for the future as much as, sibling war. We did not fight with each other constantly, but sometimes he just bugged me. When I was younger, Edward annoyed me all the time.
I was five years old when Edward took chewing gum and stuck it in my hair. For hours I sat there and cried because my mom had to cut my long brown curly hair. Edward was in a lot of trouble with dad, but he´s never done something like that again.
I was still a human and could not fight, but today he wouldn´t dare. When I was a newborn he had no chance against me, but it has changed now, because today he is stronger than I am.
"Family Meeting!" Dad called. All of my siblings shut their doors and ran downstairs with Vampirespeed.
We sat on the couch in the living room and looked to our parents who were both standing.
"We need to clarify something before we start our new life here," Dad opened the meeting.
What we need to clarify? I asked myself. That Forks is a boring town?
"Your mother will stay home while I'm working in the Forks Comunity Hospital" he continued.
Yeah! I thought. Dad is gone and we are alone with mom, which meant more freedom for me because Mum was easier to persuade than my Dad. Perhaps the move to Forks was not such a bad idea, I thought as I leaned grinning back into the sofa cushions.
Dad folded his arms across his chest and laughed at me triumphantly, "Lilly, I know exactly what you're thinking, but forget it," he dropped my dream bubble, before he continued "All of you will be starting at the Forks High School tomorrow. Your classes begin at 8 am. The meeting is over! " He finished with a devilish smile on his lips.
A groan went through the round before everybody got up and went into their rooms.
Oh great! I thought. Yet another new school. It´s not easy to live as a Vampire. I was doomed, doomed to go to school. My parents really are sadistic!
