SUMMARY: PRINCESS ISABELLA AND PRINCE EDWARD ARE BETROTH FROM BIRTH TO BE THE COUPLE THAT UNITES TWO KINGDOMS AT WAR. WATCH AS THEY TRY TO KEEP FROM GOING TO WAR WITH EACH OTHER.

"Hey, Shayla what-..." She held up her hand cutting me off. It must have been an important call. She turned to me as soon as she hung up with a startled expression on her face.

"Who was it?" I asked guarding her reaction. "That was your parents. They want you to return home." She said a huge grin was slowly appearing on her face.

CHAPTER TWO: Edward's New Girlfriend

"Home?" I whispered, "What do you mean?" Shayla sprang forward and enclosed me into a bone crushing hug. I was momentarily stunned by her behavior. I had never seen Shayla so excited about anything in my life. I had always admired her semi-stoic disposition; hardly anything bothers her.

On the few occasions when she showed genuine emotion I always treasured those moments because I never knew when they would be the last. Sometimes I wished I had her personality; then Edward wouldn't get on my nerves as often as he did, but it wasn't the right time to be thinking of Edward of all people.

"Your parents, they would very much like to see you, oh Isabella this is very, very good news." She squeezed me once more before almost literally floating up the stairs. Apparently, she didn't notice the shock on my face. Wasn't I the one who complained about my lack of parent hours before and when the possibility of me having both my parents seemed like a reality, I didn't even know if I was ready for it.

The feelings that coursed through me left me confused. I've wanted to know my parents for so long; Shouldn't I be bursting with happiness? The truth was, I didn't even know how to feel. What I felt was equivalent to feeling crestfallen and elated at the same time. I was utterly bewildered. I ran my hands over my face and sat down on the bottom step; that was where Shayla found me half an hour later still processing the news.

"You're thinking too much my dear," Shayla said, wrapping her arms around my shoulders and taking a seat beside me.

"Maybe you're right." I sighed agreeing with her.

"Of course, I'm right. I'm always right," Shayla said with a smile.

"Who knew hearing news like this would make you so sarcastic. " I smiled, Shayla's happiness rubbing off on me. She smiled again and patted my shoulders.

"This month will be your last in school before we have to leave, okay." She said I didn't even think about school or Alice and Jacob, my friends. I would be leaving, and I didn't think I would be able to see them as often as I would like.

"Shayla, you never did tell me, what was so important about my parents?" I asked.

"I'll tell you everything I can, but there are some things that only your parents can reveal." She rose from her position beside me then moved towards the kitchen leaving me to my thoughts.


Alice's extra cheery disposition the next morning just made me realize how much I would miss just being there with her, I haven't even told her yet. I thought that I would wait until after school when we were at the mall to lessen the blow as always whenever I had to tell her something she wasn't going to like.

"So I told my mom that I'd be staying at your house tonight, so we can finally finish that scrapbook, we are through procrastinating on that thing." Alice kept ticking off things that we had to do, and I wholeheartedly agreed.

I planned to spend as much time with her as I could the following month since I was not sure when I'd see her again. I hoped our plans for going off to college together weren't, ruined, though. Alice had been my best friend since kindergarten. I had never gone a day without her.

Alice pulled into the school parking lot. I grabbed my bag, and we headed to the entrance, I was surprised when I didn't saw Edward and his new girlfriend sucking faces in his usual spot on the far side of the building. Well, that was at least a treat for me.

"I wonder where he is?" Alice murmured, but I heard her, she couldn't be talking about Edward, could she?

"You're not talking about Edward, are you?" I asked just to make sure because I would have been shocked.

"What? No! Of course not, I'm talking about my future husband, my Jasper, he's usually leaning on the right side of the central office with Edward, you know I don't even know why he's friends with him," she answered.

"Tell me about it, oh, I almost forgot he gave me a ride yesterday after school," I said.

"Edward?" she asked.

"No! Jasper, it was pouring and frigid," I replied appalled that she would think I would ever get in a car with Edward. She stopped walking altogether, then turned to me with a scowl on your face.

"What! He gave you a ride home, and you didn't see that has crucial information I should have known about as soon as you exit his car." She shrieked, her eyes going wide as she stared at me. A few kids in the hallway turned and looked at us.

"Alice, please, lower your voice and it was not even a car it was more like a small truck." She raised an eyebrow at me as if asking if it even mattered, I moved around her and continued walking to my locker.

"Bella come on he's the guy of my dreams." She whined her behavior was starting to annoy me.

"Alice all he did was drive me home we barely even talked, and he drove away before I even got a chance to thank him, the whole thing was utterly bizarre." I opened my locker grabbed my math book then closed it again.

"That surely can't be all. I wonder what else happened." She said thoughtfully to herself before she slowly looked up at me, I just rolled my eyes at her.

"Nothing else happened, I told you, now please, I don't wanna talk about Jasper anymore." I turned to walk to class but stopped, stunned when I saw Jasper about a couple of steps ahead, did he heard Alice and I talking about him? I hope not. He was leaning against a locker and talking with Edward who had his arm around a short blonde hair girl who I didn't recognize.

He didn't look like he heard us and they were facing another direction. I grabbed Alice's arm and dragged her to class with me. As we passed by, Edward turned and gave me a smile which I huffed at, and I could have sworn I saw Jasper staring at Alice. I wondered if he liked her just as much as Alice wanted him.

I had told her goodbye before I entered Mr. Nolan math class, a couple of minutes later Edward appeared at the doorway with his new girlfriend. He gave her a kiss, which was way too long if you ask me, as he turns to leave, and caught me staring; I quickly turned towards the window thoroughly embarrassed.

The only available seat was beside me, and unfortunately, that was where she sat. She turned towards me, and I thought she was going to say hello, but she just pushed her nose up and turned to look straight up ahead. Apparently, I was not up to your standards. The rest of the day moved rather slowly for my taste, and the end couldn't come fast enough.

Lunch was a whole different story. I heard from the school gossip duo Jessica and Lauren that the new girl, Tanya, she was a transfer who was supposed to be a junior but end up having to repeat the sophomore year. How they found out about that? I had no idea.

Tanya thought since she was now dating the hottest and most popular guy in school, then she was to be crowned the most popular girl in school. Well, do I have news for her, nothing could stop her reign of terror, though, cutting through the lines and tripping students, she even embarrassed Alice.

As we walked pass with our lunch heading to our usual table, she stuck her foot out almost tripping Alice; she managed to right herself, but her tray of lunch was way off course and all her pudding, pizza and apple juice fell right into Jasper's face.

Everyone in the cafeteria stopped and turned to look at us. Tanya burst out in laughter along with everyone else, Jasper slowly stood and wiped the mess off his face before heading to the exit shortly followed by Alice. I couldn't help but notice the frown on Edward's face.
