So sorry it's been so long… I was just figuring out what exactly to do in the story and changed my mind a couple times… a special thanks to all those who favorite or follow this story, it means a lot!
Chapter 2:
BELLA POV
Here we go… does it even surprise me that it's raining? Apparently in forks, it rains pretty much twenty four seven, at least three hundred days a year and the rest it's "just" clouded… I just arrived at the airport a few minutes ago and now picked up my suitcase. My parents offered to come too and help me set up, but I refused – I could do this alone and …well I wanted to do this on my own. My stuff had been moved here a roughly two weeks ago, so everything should be waiting at the house by now. These were the times I was glad for my parents' income – I could comfortably afford a house, to have everything including my Mercedes moved here in advance and decorate the whole house. Not to mention all the shopping and clothes. I laughed inwardly. I liked to think I wasn't crazy about fashion and a few years back, I wouldn't care if I went to school in an old garbage bag, but shopping was fun. I went through the last controls, where a man in the airport uniform wished me a nice stay and walked out of the building. Water immediately started drizzling all over my face. I made a mental note to invest into waterproof makeup. Ugh. But you're an optimist, right? Everything's gonna be fine. And you'll get used to the dampness. I tried to persuade myself. I waved my hand a nearby standing taxi which slowly moved up next to the pavement where I stood. I explained the driver exactly where I was going and got in the back seat while he put my suitcase in the trunk and we the cab went into motion.
EMMETT POV
"Emmett! Stop messing with that poor thing and move it! We'll be late!" Urgh… Carlisle really could be a party pooper sometimes. I loved him like a dad, obviously, but seriously though. Man can't even have any fun anymore. I launched at the groaning grizzly and finished him off. My taste buds weren't exactly satisfied, but my stomach had no objections. "Coming!" I shouted back and started running. This was one of the reasons why being a vampire was so awesome. The speed, the strength. When I reached the group, I was met with the amused looks of Jasper and Edward and a heavy sigh from Carlisle. "What?" I raised my eyebrows. I heard Edward chuckle quietly while Carlisle eyed me from head to toe and back. "Could you at least pretend to be trying not to drive Alice crazy? You know how sensitive she is about her clothes." I looked at myself. The shirt was ripped in several places and I was soaked in bear blood and moss and fur stuck to the blood. "Yeah, gee thanks bro. I can tell you she'll be absolutely no fun when she sees you." Jazz frowned. I sighed. Alice was an absolute pain in the backside when it came to our clothes. "Come on! First of all, it's MY clothes and second, it's not like she would have allowed me to wear it again anyway so what's the big deal?" I shook my head in amusement. Nobody objected anything, I was right... duh. Anyway, this was going to be fun.
When we got back, as expected, Alice totally freaked out. She accused me of something like being a Gucci murderer and having no compassion, fashion sense and who knows what else. Then she stormed off to her room and Jasper her before glaring at me shortly. I chuckled. Somebody was not getting laid tonight. Edward laughed out loud. Man! I should have known he was listening. He laughed even harder. I started mentally singing I'm a Barbie Girl in my head, very loudly and very much out of tune. He growled at me. In a Barbie world, out of plastic, it's fantaaaastiiiiic I continued as he clenched his jaw and walked off with Rosalie. Speaking of people who weren't gonna get laid tonight, knowing those two, he most certainly wasn't one of them. He turned his head around and rolled his eyes at me. I chuckled. And I was right, as the moaning reached me from their room. Somebody help. I took a shower and put on some clean clothes. Next I had to do my homework. In the Forks Washington Social Studies High School, which we were currently attending, we always had some sort of a social project going on. I shuddered at the thought of when we all had to go help out at a homeless center in Seattle. The smell is something I won't be able to forget any time soon. Right now, we had to record our dreams for a month and find out what they said about our personalities based on a book by Freud. No problem, right, except I didn't sleep, ergo… I just always made something up. Tonight, I dream of… let's see. I got an idea and started describing how I was being chased in the woods by Winnie the Pooh while a Barbie doll was laughing at me. I think one could say that I genuinely tried – it did include the events of this night. I looked at the extremely boring book which promised to tell me exactly who I was. This time, I apparently had a childhood traumatic experience, possibly linked with the zoo, and was experiencing deprivation of affection. I swear Freud must have just randomly made this stuff up.
Honestly, the only social experiments at the school that were worth it was watching the humans' attempt at dating, friendship and conquering that "awkward phase" I was so glad I was stuck at twenty one, not an eternal teenager like SOMEBODY! At the end I was very loudly aiming at Edward. He might have been a bit too distracted to notice though. I frowned. At least something interesting was going to happen today. Some new girl, Isabella Swan was coming. All the guys were practically drawling over her and they haven't even seen her yet… this was gonna be fun to watch.
Let me know what you think! The next update should be a lot sooner!
