Chapter Two: Decisions for the Future!
"Oops sorry Harry," Hermione smiled pop another streamer "MY BIG SISTER ARIEL IS GETTING MARRIED!" she exclaimed as Draco, Blaise, Fred and George just walked in with little Demi who gave a smile for her new fond auntie while the others were startled.
"Who's getting married?" Fred asked.
"What's with the yelling?" George asked.
Draco raised his eyebrow at the girl where he was about to ask but, was cut off by Hermione who gave him a huge smooth leaving everyone in the room stunned including Draco before letting him go "MY BIG SISTER IS GETTING MARRIED
?!" she exclaimed jumping up and down.
"Well bloody hell," Blaise blurted out and chuckled at his best friend Draco who looked stunned by the kiss.
"Don't I get a kiss Mione?" Fred asked playfully.
Hermione looked at Fred curiously "Why would I kiss you Fred?" she asked.
Fred shrugged playfully "Well you kissed Malfoy like it was natural for you," he pointed out.
Hermione blinked her eyes owlish "Did I?" turning to Draco who seemed to froze in his spot then turned to Fred "Well I guess it's just one of those things Freddie and you know what?" she asked.
"What?" Fred asked.
"MY BIG SISTER IS GETTING MARRIED?!" Hermione exclaimed.
"We know!" everyone exclaimed leaving her to jump up and down on the couches once more until she was done celebrating.
"I'm gaining another big brother and not only that he's my best friend Sammy! Sammy is going to be my new fond brother in law!" Hermione screamed, doing an air guitar moment that she didn't noticed that Draco felt his lips as it was still tingling from the out of nowhere kiss from her.
"I don't think I ever seen her this excited over anything besides books have you?" Blaise whispered.
Draco didn't answer as he kept watching Hermione jumping up and down on the couches like she gone mad but, gave a love sigh.
"Yeah but, it's good to see her smile again after all we did win the war," Draco whispered back leaving Blaise to chuckle.
"You have got it bad mate," Blaise chuckled leaving Draco to sigh knowing he's right.
"And yet I wouldn't change it for the world," Draco whispered as he watched the love of his life excited over the news.
Hermione just gathered the others, along with Luna to discuss their moving plans. Fred and George just got back from the funeral of their families as they're now the only Weasley's left who survived the war where they were told to come along which left the twins (Fred and George) to agree immediately. After saying good bye to their friends and families in the funeral which was hard for Hermione but, shook that thought out since now wasn't the time to cry over this at least not yet. She had to be strong for the boys and for her sake. Neither of them knew when they'd come back to England so it wasn't a problem for her.
Fred and George gave their joke shop to their best friend Lee Jordan with his girlfriend Aaliyah Jones who happily agreed to look after the shop since they're expanding their business to another place in America so it wasn't a problem for Fred and George who insisted that they'll come by to visit whenever they could.
Anyway.
Hermione and Luna had gathered Harry, Blaise, Draco, Neville, Fred and George with little Teddy, Elias and Demi who were cradled into Hermione's and Luna's arms dreaming away. Teddy with Hermione, Demi with George and Elias with Luna. They were sitting around the Hufflepuff common room and it may seem a random choice but, it felt right with old rivalries and feuds Hermione thought it was best that they talk within the most neutral houses common room.
Hufflepuff didn't decimate. They were loyal and protected each other's back and her siblings was in this exact room (Hufflepuff) before she attended to Hogwarts so that was a plus for her and Hermione thought that they should all have a dose of that before leaving for Forks. Not that they weren't all closer after everything they'd been thru it was just that Hermione felt like there were some things they'd never gotten over especially since she has family down in Forks in the first place.
Luna tapped the table with her slender fingers accompanied with small hands, gaining everyone's attention making them held their random conversation about Quiddich and what not.
Luna turned to Hermione signaling that it should be her to talk as she knew more about the place then neither of them did, her family and her two uncles, cousin were another tie to the place. None of the others had been to America apart from Blaise who had seemed to have gone everywhere with his mother and two sisters before they died. Luna surprise haven't preferring to get to the places that were hard to get too and generally unheard of by most places. Apparently those places attracted more magical beasts because of this place.
"Ahem," Hermione started once more attracting everyone's attention.
"What's up Mione?" Harry asks noticing her distress expression.
"Well as you all know ... Luna and I gathered you guys here so we can talk about some things... we need somewhere else to go, nobody wants to finish their final year back at Hogwarts ... since there's too many memories..." Hermione started to say as she secretly thought about how Professor McGonagall had told her quietly that she was completely ready to take her last NEWTS exams, that she can sit them during Christmas at some point and wouldn't have to come back to Hogwarts for any lessons. If she didn't want too that is.
"Mya... are you alright?" Draco asks.
"Hmm..." Hermione began to say shaking out of her thoughts "Sorry I was just thinking..." waving it off "And another thing ... is if you're all thinking 'but what about the NEWTS?' then I assure you that Professor McGonagall has said that with the people amongst the group she knows their crucial parts of the war and is willing to get them the expected number of NEWT's they would've gotten their chosen subjects... not to mention that there's many jobs offers for some of you already and won't necessary need them to get by..." aiming that last part at Harry, not to mention herself, remembering how she had been offered to take over the Minster of Magic and had thought that she'd have a steady and fantastic candidate for the job.
It was only fair to say the least that she had turned it down, thinking she's too young. After that and hinted that she was always open to take the job they offered the role to Kingsley Shacklebolt, who she thought of him as a prime candidate for the job. Just the wizard after the war they'd expected since he has more experience in the Ministry then she did.
After all Kingsley had been with them from the start of their fifth year, believing both Harry and Dumbledore about Voldemort unlike someone she knew; she had scowled on Fudge she never did like that arrogant arse git who was a weakling and didn't bother to free Sirius in the first place if she and Harry didn't go back in time ... neither of them didn't know what else would happen. As for Kingsley he wasn't shy from it; fully support them fully and sticking up for them when they were criticized especially towards Hermione when Fudge called her the 'M' word with Umbridge that she shivered on that horrible woman.
Hermione had her reasons for turning down the so called gift of a job knowing full well that if she worked in the Ministry now... well things would be complicated and that was the last thing she needed right now because she needed to be close to her family and friends since she missed them terribly especially Seth she was very close with him since he was a baby oh and the twins of course.
You can say that she wanted to live a little before tying herself down to a job, sort out what she really wanted to do. Maybe if she wanted to stay in the wizarding world she would but, Hermione had been wondering what would be like to maybe live some of her younger years in the muggle world and come back to the wizarding world in later years, after all witches and wizards did generally live to be around 200, as their average life span and some lived longer than that.
Hermione would be gaining fairly slowly compared to muggles from eighteen onwards, if she wanted she could stay in the muggle world for twenty years or more and still look as young as the day she turned nineteen, not that she was nineteen yet. Even with using the time tuner, it had been proved the time turner didn't actually age you; who knew unless it was in a different time.
Shaking her head out of her thoughts Hermione continued her little speech "As I was saying, nobody here really wants to go back to Hogwarts right?" asking the group who nodded at this "We all want a break, so Luna and I have brainstormed and we think that the best place to head is a small town in America called 'Forks,' which is my home town I have family down there my older siblings ... Logan (the oldest) then there's Max, Jayden and Cameron who's the youngest of the brothers then my older sisters Ariel and Aqua then me and a few years later my babies who are twins Rocco and Rocky they just turned 5 years old recently and I miss them terribly along with my parents since I send them there. My uncle Charlie is my mum's older brother then my uncle Billy but, blood living down there; my big brothers Logan just got us a house with Kingsley Shacklebolt's help down in La Push who's going to pose as our guardians when it's needed," she explained.
"So wait a minute you have siblings in America," Draco asked in disbelief at this.
"Yes I do," Hermione nodded at this after her surprise gesture of news that her big sister is marrying Sam she was so happy that she practically screamed madly as if it was a normal thing for her "My big sister Ariel is getting married to my best friend Sammy growing up while Aqua is currently single at the moment, you'll all like him though he's like a big brother to me that I never had besides my big brothers anyway," she explained nodding to herself as everyone continued to blankly gape at her like a fish.
"How come we never knew about this?" Fred asked raising his eyebrow at her.
"Freddie you know Logan, Max, Jayden, Cameron, Ariel and Aqua when you were in Hogwarts remember? Their last names was under Swan. Logan, Max, Jayden, Cameron, Ariel, and Aqua Swan. Logan, Max and Jayden were in Hufflepuff while Cameron, Ariel and Aqua were in Ravenclaw until they graduated. You see Jayden, Cameron, Ariel and Aqua all graduated early with Logan and Max who were moving to America once they graduated to start their new lives together and the reason we have different last names was because neither of us wanted anyone to find out since it was private because of the war and everything so my older siblings used my mum's maiden name which was Swan so people like Lavender," she spats on her name which she still distaste due to her gossiping a lot "And Pravati who were huge gossipers which was the last thing neither of us wanted and it wasn't anyone's business to snoop into my family business anyway," she scowls.
Fred and George jaws dropped completely stunned "Blimey Mione you mean to tell us that Logan, Max, Jayden, Cameron, Ariel, and Aqua Swan are your older siblings," they both waved their arms dramatically.
"Yes,"
"Bloody hell!"
"Why didn't you tell us?!"
"Or better yet,"
"Why didn't they tell us,"
"We're supposed,"
"To be best friends?!" Fred and George exclaimed waving their arms dramatically.
"Boys watch your mouth," Hermione scolded giving them a stern look as they mumbled an apology as there were younger children in the room who were half asleep "And to answer your question you never asked. Anyway what do you guys think?" she asked around.
Harry paused for a moment and was the first to speak up "What will we do in Forks Mione?"
Luna entered the conversation "We'll go to a school, a muggle high school called La Push High since Ariel just spoke to their uncle Charlie stating that Forks High wasn't accepting new students at this time… whatever that means," she says turning to Hermione who shrugged at this now knowing the answer since she knew her estrange cousin Isa was attending there so she rather just attend in La Push. Her big sister Ariel kept insisting they attend La Push since it's much closer than Forks High anyway "My siblings live in the reservation of La Push which we won't have any problems since Mione's older brother Logan is the current principle in La Push High which is the easy part. As you know you guys will enter your senior year while for me would be my 'junior' year. Is that the right word Mione? And it would seem quite odd that there's a bunch of new teenagers around that aren't doing anything don't you think?"
"Yes, that does seem like a good plan too," Harry nodded in agreement.
"I thought so too I mean I don't really know the whole 'American lingo' for the school years down there since I'm always getting so confuse whenever Ariel explained it to me well more like babbling over it stating that we're going to have new activities during our stay there since Sammy added new buildings in La Push High so there's plenty of extra space there. Apparently the school of La Push had a brand new makeover and everything," she explained.
Hermione tried to get a response from Draco and Blaise by tapping Blaise on the shoulder, stopping him from keeping up his vacant expression "Hmm what? Oh yes, muggle school should be interesting, I did have to attend for a few months when I was chasing down the death eaters... you know 'Mione I think I should be able to give the basic layout to Luna and Draco since I know you and Harry at least attended some muggle school..."
Draco decided to slip in a question, hating how new he could be in this education "What are these lessons again, I mean I remember Harry telling me some but, I keep confusing them, what are Physmstry? and I know these was from History and I think there was some Ministry related. I know Spanish and the languages and Biology and I remember you showing me Darwin's Theory of Evolution B," he quickly added.
Harry and Hermione shared a glance at that, trying to hold in their splutter of laughter after she and Luna put the boys Teddy and Elias, along with Demi in their play pens sleeping soundly holding their werewolves stuff animals; they insisted to buy those after Hermione took them to the zoo; even with the little muggle education they had received and how theirs are completely different from American education and knew he was talking about Physics, Chemistry and that American lessons her sister had 'Government' due to the fact she was the Head President in her senior class but, now Ariel currently a co-owner of a Bakery called Snowy Angelcakez Sweets with her and Max both major on being a baker it was perfect for them both where Sammy and the others would help out while some would come after school when they have the time.
Luna decided to save Harry and Hermione from laughing and said in her melodic voice "No Draco those aren't the subjects it was Physics, Chemistry, and yes there's Biology but, I don't know the others, such as this ministry your on about, my mother taught me the sciences as a young child," she finished off, her voice trailing a dreamy look as she remembered her mother, the mother she lost at age nine.
Hermione let out a surprisley discreet cough and continued to correct him, after all they would have to pass as normal muggle teenagers "There isn't a lesson called ministry, it's called Government and that's the form of the ministry the muggles have you know like being a president and what not. Apparently it's an American subject though so I think Blaise is going to be the one giving explanations. Blaise?"
Blaise started up then trying to explain about the government, soon giving up and finish with "So will we have to be passable in these subjects, if so I think we should focus on the Sciences, I know you know them Mione I saw you studying for your Online Physics and Child Care Masters and Bachelor's Degree in the library, you must know all the sciences to a good standard along being a teacher. Physics extremely well but, not being able to do any languages is pretty much acceptable, Draco can just tutor you," Blaise finished up pointing at Harry and Luna but, neither of them were looking at him.
"Actually Blaise... I can speak different languages due to the fact my older siblings taught me in a very young age before I attended Hogwarts. Japanese I can speak fluent, along with Italian, Spanish, French, German, etc since my grandmother from my mom's side was Japanese so I have 3/4 in my mother's side along with Italian and French since they're my favorite languages to speak. German not so much... " Hermione says with a shrug leaving Blaise to drop his jaw in shock as she continued to talk "Although since Sammy is gonna be in my family he probably learned a few things too," she explained nodding at this.
"And what about child care?" George asked.
"That was because I want to be a teacher since I'm good with kids in a young age when I was a little I used to baby sit my neighbor's kids until my parents decided to have kids again which they're both twins Rocco and Rocky; they're currently living with my older siblings in America like I said I'm a complete natural with kids don't you think?" Hermione grinned leaving everyone to chuckle.
"I thought you wanted to be working in the Ministry of Magic Mione?" Harry asked curiously at this since he wasn't aware of this.
Hermione held her breath "I was but, turns out that I don't want to settle down just yet ... I want to at least live my life as a teenager for once not worrying over anything especially you Harry do you have any idea how tiring it was to worry over you sometimes I feel like I'm your mother not that I mind or anything but, come on," she says with a shrug leaving Harry to gape at his best friend "Besides from what Ariel told me some of the guys that Sammy made friends with are gonna be in the same class as us so that way we won't get lost thru the school so it's a bit bigger, apparently Sammy added new classrooms since they're expending the students who will attend La Push High," she explained.
"Oh," Harry says then paused for a moment "Hey, that's not my fault Mione and you know it" leaving the others to chuckle at this.
Hermione turned crimson as she noticed that they were all gaping at her. Probably from the fact that she already has a full degree of her masters and now she's getting her bachelors business degree at age 17 which she had gotten a first. Though they didn't know that part yet. Hermione resettled with little Elias and Teddy who just got up from their naps into her arms, Harrys eyes zoned onto him as he didn't have to say anything for Hermione to know that he wanted to hold onto Teddy while she holds onto Elias while Demi was under Fred's arms as he and George would switch to watch over whenever she gets tired.
They had become more tuned into each other, understanding each other signals as they looked after the two boys together; it was strange but, definitely useful.
Passing Teddy over she saw Draco's face take up his signature smirk "So Mya if you got this degree right? Does that mean you have completed it at age seventeen but, more importantly what did you get in it hmm?" his chin resting on his hands; Iron eyes sparkling.
Now this would be fun so she casually made it as it was a normal thing for her to do.
Leaning back on her plush chair steadying Elias who looked up staring at his god mother "Oh it's a first, right now I'm heading on getting my bachelors business degree in a year once my master's degree is complete for child care less than six months where I can get any job as a teacher whenever I want in fact my big sister insisted I get the job as a high school teacher teaching English since that's my master's degree for English Literature and creative writing while for childcare was just a backup, so you can say I have three degrees on the subjects with a high IQ of 6.0 with amazing academics known to man," she says smug at this "In another note since it's now official I graduated with my master's degree as a teacher and creative writing to write my book," she quickly added showing her degree "Hermione Granger," Master's degree of Creative Writing and English Literature.
The only way to explain it was to say that his smirk fell off his face. Like his face literally dropped, it may as well have for how long his jaw was hanging open.
"Your high IQ is 6.0," George slowly says.
"Yes that would be correct," Hermione comments. "Since I got two degrees in the same year as I requested which was completely fine with the right requirements I could get any job in the world if I wanted too," she says.
"Blimey Mione no wonder you're not called the smartest witch of your age, your smarter than Logan and your siblings put together," Fred dramatically waving his arms at this "And that's saying a lot even smarter then the Ravenclaws in our school," he says.
Hermione shrugged in response grinning "You can say that," she says.
"Bloody hell," Blaise says shaking his head "No wonder you couldn't beat Drake and I, we always thought you were cheating but, turns out you're just that smart, that is the last time I'm trying to beat you with stuff," he says.
"Point made," Harry replied "Now guys as much as that was funny however we could sort things out maybe some back stories. People will have questions about transfers in the last year of High school, especially with a such a large amount of us..." he was right they did need to sort everything out.
"Well I got Professor McGonagall to pose as our grandmother while Kingsley is gonna pose as our estrange uncle but, since uncle Charlie and uncle Billy are gonna be our guardians down there it won't be a problem since they both know I'm a witch ..." Hermione starts to say pondering for a moment where Elias blew kisses on her necks leaving her to smile at her god son "If anyone asks we can say Elias and Teddy are our brothers Harry while Demi would be our sister," she offered.
Harry nodded at this in agreement "Sounds good but, what about the rest of the lot?" he asked.
"We can change into your mom's maiden name Harry. Harrison James Evans, Neville Frank Evans, Fredrick and George 'whatever their maiden' names are Evans, then for me would be Hermione Granger since my family is living down there anyway then there's Draco, Luna and Blaise would be Black-Lupin and if there's any trouble Draconius Severus Lupin-Black under Draco Black or somewhere around there it's up to you Draco if you want to keep that name then then Blaise and Luan would be the same, Blaise Dominic Black-Lupin and Luna Ophelia Lupin-Black," Hermione explained.
"I'll stick with the original Draco Black-Lupin," Draco comments.
"Same with us," Luna agreed with Blaise who nodded silently.
"What about your parents Mione? Are you still planning on restoring their memories once we reached Forks?" Harry asked.
Hermione nodded at this "Actually Harry Logan and my siblings restored their memories the minute they arrived to Forks so they know what's happening. At first they were quite upset with me as they were yelling at me before the war started…since my dad was in the army for a few years so he understood and told me to be extra careful. They also told me the minute the war is over they wanted to have a talk to talk with me … after I explained why I erased their memories to keep them safe," she explained.
"That makes sense," Harry mumbled nodding at this.
"What about your siblings Mione did you erased their memories too?" Neville asked.
Hermione made a tired sigh "I tried but, they insisted that they keep their memories of me but, will keep watch on our parents since they all live in Forks right now" she bit her bottom lip nervously "So far it's been working well with my parents as they extended their practice in Forks which made a good business around the town folks. My uncle Charlie knew some parts about what's been happening in England including the war. He was very worried over me but, once my siblings explained everything he understood until they revive their memories. They were upset with me but, they understood why I did it," she explained.
Everyone murmured in agreement on that "True, true, now Blaise why don't you start with your experiences of muggle high school in America since the rest of us don't know what it was like and figure the back story afterwards?" Harry offered.
"Alright," Blaise replied as he started to talk about his experience attending a muggle high school.
(another flashback)
"Hello?"
"Big sister!
"Hey bumblebee did you managed to talk to everyone about the plan yet?"
"I did and I just wanted to let you know that they agreed to come with me to Forks as they wanted to start fresh and finish our last year of school since it's been so long since I been home,"
"Really that's great cookie. I'm glad did you managed to talk to them if they're going to keep or change their names yet?"
"Yes, Teddy, Elias will be mine and Harry's god sons under Evans. Theodore Remus Lupin-Black Evans and Elias Jason Lupin-Black Evans then there's me under my name Hermione Jean Granger. Draco, Luna and Blaise decided to use their names as Draco, Luna and Blaise Lupin-Black then there's Neville, Fred and George who will be under Neville Franklin Evans, Fredric Gideon 'Fred' and George Fabian Evans as Harry's siblings in case anyone to ask in case we get into trouble then there's Demi being Fred and George daughter," Hermione explained.
"That's good cookie I'll let Logan know and start with the transcripts and the paperwork should be done within a week. No one knows that you're coming here except uncle Charlie and uncle Billy. They both send their loves and said 'hi' to you by the way,"
"Tell them I said 'hi' back and send my love back would you,"
"Of course did you managed to get a ride cookie?"
"No not yet I haven't got a chance to ask uncle Charlie about that yet?"
"Well I'm sure he'd be happy to pick you up but, since he, Max, Jayden, Cameron and Aqua are busy with work I told them that I was going to pick you up personally,"
"Oh you don't have you to do that big sister,"
"I insist besides uncle Charlie wants to give you a family dinner at his house but, since Isabella doesn't know that you're coming to Forks I figured we can have it at your place if that's alright with you?"
"Of course that's fine with me as long as Isa doesn't know that I'm coming. After what happen I don't want to take any chances,"
"I agree now here's the plan as soon as you leave you call me as soon as you can okay Mya and I'll come pick you up," Ariel began to say telling her sister the plan as they were preparing themselves for her and her friends staying in Forks, Washington "And then once that's finished you and your friends can start school from there," she explained.
"Sounds like a plan big sister are you sure Logan can enroll us in the middle of the school year?"
"I'm positive after all he's the principle and besides he won't take 'no' for an answer since you know he takes his job very seriously,"
Hermione sighed "Of course I'll call you once we packed and get ready to leave big sister,"
"Good, when are you leaving anyway so I can let everyone know,"
"We're going to leave the day after tomorrow big sister,"
"Good, good I'll see you then cookie,"
"Bye big sister and I can't wait to see Sammy along with everyone,"
"And we can't wait to see you cookie bear, I love you,"
"I love you too! Bye!"
"Bye baby girl,"
(end of flashback)
Meanwhile that same night at the Cullen's house, in the current present.
Alice was sitting in their living room, designing Bella's wedding dress. She had already seen Edward and Bella's wedding. Bella had finally agreed to marry her brother Edward that Alice had been practically squealing at that thought and started organizing their whole wedding. Of course she hasn't mentioned anything towards Bella knowing how she was.
She didn't want to freak her out and change her mind. Messing with the visions Alice received wasn't something she wanted to do.
She couldn't have that since she wants Bella as her sister since they're best friends much to Rosalie's consent since she despises Bella more than anything which she couldn't do anything at least not yet considering she does want Edward to be happy and wasn't very happy about it but, kept her mouth shut until further notice. And that was what Alice was thinking just as the future was a bit blurred. Bella's decisions blurred which Alice had basically assumed it was impossible since something must've triggered with it. Bella didn't know what they're up too especially since she hasn't set the wedding date yet there was one person who could and that was until she got angry.
"EDWARD!? GET IN HERE RIGHT NOW?!" Alice exclaimed practically yelling at the top of her melodic voice. She heard his piano faltered as he played as she knew he had heard her.
In a blink of an eye Edward raced down and appeared in front of her. Alice was startled quietly not wanting to let on how she was really fuming with anger.
"Now I don't want to accuse you or anything Edward," Alice calmly starts to say turning to her brother with a stern look "But, I want you to tell me ABSOLUTLY EVERYTHING that you told Bella RIGHT THIS SECOND?!"
Edward seemed very confuse at her request and answered with a tired sigh "I swear to you Alice I haven't told her anything especially about the wedding okay,"
He then seemed to realize that something was a bit … off… "Wait a minute… have you had your visions blurred or something since I haven't been really checking today…"
He never really finished because at that point things started to became a little clearer "Bella is about- "
The telephone started ringing; it's repetitive tone echoing.
"Yes Bella," Edward asked anxiously down the side of the phone.
Alice could hear their conversation, human phones hardly hide the conversation to the other side and vampires have good hearing.
"Is something wrong? Why are you acting so … anxious?" Bella asked from the other side.
"Oh no, no I was just worried about Alice because she said her future is a bit blurred a little more than she used too. Have you been around the dogs again," Edward growled which Alice could've sworn she heard a snarl at that knowing how frustrating it was on Jacob's part inside Bella's heart.
"No… I haven't seen Jake in a while… maybe it's just things are changing but, I do have some news for you…"
"Oh? Well what is it? Anything exciting?"
Just before she can answer he heard her father Charlie on the other side of the phone which he assumed he was heading out.
"Dad where are you going?" Bella asked curiously.
Edward and Alice heard a crash which they're guessing it was Charlie-Bella's dad "Hmmm what? Oh… how long have you been there Bells?" Charlie asked almost surprised by this.
"Since I got back from school like an hour ago why are you so jumpy?"
"Me jumpy I'm not jumpy who says I'm jumpy." Charlie cleared his throat where they can picture Bella with a blank look on her face "I uh I just got a call from Max he said it's really urgent so I have to get to the station really quick so I won't be back by the end of the weekend in the latest," he explained.
"Wait Max… as in Mya's big brother Max or a different Max?" she asked.
"It's Mya's big brother Max Bells I told you this before like so many times. He's your older cousin," Charlie pointed out.
Bella grew quiet "I know that dad but, I didn't know he's back in town… when did he arrive here?"
"Bella … Max been here the same day you arrive here except a couple of hours early then you did. He just tends to keep to himself and mostly hang out in the reservation with Sam and the others or at the sheriff's office since he's my partner most of the time not that you would notice or anything so how could you know about Max is here including Logan, Ariel, Aqua, Jayden and Cameron with their family including their parents and the twins," he explained.
"Twins? Are you talking about Ariel and Aqua?" Bella asked puzzled.
"No Bells I'm talking about your youngest cousins the newest member in the Granger family, your aunt Emma and your uncle Dan are also here as well and had twins about 3 years ago. Their names are Rocco and Rocky," Charlie explained.
"How come I wasn't told this before," Bella asked.
"Bella I told you this during our conversations about two weeks ago but, I guess you didn't bother to listen since you always hang out with Edward and ignoring Jake," Charlie stiffly pointed out leaving Bella quiet.
"I don't remember you telling me this," Bella protested weakly.
"Yeah well it's not like you pay attention to me anyway so why would I bother to tell you these things," Charlie shrugged.
"Does that mean Mya is here too I mean she's my best friend and if they were here how come in ever seen them in town," Bella protested.
Charlie snorted "Hardly if you guys were best friends you wouldn't be treating Jake the way you doing right now," where I heard some shuffling in the background "And just so you know Mya knows what's been happening in Forks since she considers Jake as a brother but, blood. Remember that," he began to say pausing for a moment "And I told you this a lot during our conversation and again you never pay attention the only reason you haven't seen them is because they're always busy with work you can't expect them to greet you with open arms do you especially since they know what's going on between you and Jake. Besides Logan and the rest of your cousins wish not to see you at the moment because they're very close with Billy and his family," he explained.
"But, that's not fair they weren't even here when that occurred," Bella protested.
"Again they know a lot more then you think especially between you and Edward," Charlie stiffly says.
"So… are you saying that Mya has like eight siblings. Does that mean Mya is here too?" Bella asked.
"Of course she's coming here she's coming within 2 weeks Bella and yes she has 8 siblings who happens to be your older cousins and I would appreciate you watch that tone missy when it comes with my sister and her family and even if Mya wasn't here she's been studying very hard in her boarding school of hers," Charlie warned her.
Bella whined at this "Why am I hearing this now,"
"It's not my fault you don't pay attention to our conversations Bells and didn't bother to visit your aunt and uncle who by the way is your dentist. Before I forget you have a dentist appointment tomorrow at 9:30 in the morning for a checkup so don't forget to go," Charlie explained.
"But, dadddd," Bella complained.
"No buts Isabella. Marie Swan." Charlie stiffly growled, it was the one of those moments he's in a bad mood as he barley says her full name unless she's in a huge trouble and grumbled under his breath something about Edward as he made a tired sigh knowing he's troubled list "Look I should get going usually I wouldn't make this a big deal about this but, your aunt Emma is my baby sister and I love her to death. I'm going to make sure to protect her and her family so I'm going to be spending a lot of them with them along with Billy since we're all going fishing. Billy even suggested that we take them out of town by the big lake… and won't be home by the end of the weekend. So is there anyway you can stay with one of your friends," he explained.
"Yeah I can just call… Angela… I'm sure she won't mind," Bella lied.
Edward can literally tell that Charlie gave Bella a stern look by raising his eyebrow at her "Good at least you're balancing on hanging out with your boyfriend and your friends …that's good to know…" then he heard some shuffling sounds in the background once more pausing for a moment without looking back "Oh … and word of advice the next time you try to lie to me to my face you're grounded for the next 4 months since you're a horrible bad liar and you got that from your mother so I suggest you tell your boyfriend…" who had a scowl on his face "To not come over because if I find out that he's coming over when I told you not to have any boys in this house I won't hesitate to tell his father that he's not allowed to even come over unless I tell him so and that's an order Isabella. Marie. Swan," he explained by putting his stuff inside his car and left without a second thought.
"Dadddddd," Bella complained and made a huff as they heard his car left in such a rush "Well that's just great," she grumbled.
Edward cleared his throat "Bella… why did you lie to your father," he stiffly replied.
"I didn't lie to him… I was really going to see Angela this weekend," Bella protested weakly.
Edward pursued his lips together "Bella… you do know that Angela hasn't been in school from the past two weeks since she's out of town for her grandparents funeral right...?" he asked.
Bella grew quiet which made Edward scowl "You're going to see him aren't you," he accused her.
"No…" she lied.
"Bella your father is right you're a horrible liar and I don't appreciate that you lied to him Bella… it's bad enough that I'm in the top of his 'hit list' who hates me with a passion and you- "he took a deep breath to calm down "You know what. Never mind… so what was it that you wanted me to know before this whole thing came up," he asked who rapidly changed the subject not wanting to be in another fight with her and when that happens well he's extra moody that he'll even rip two lions or more just for the heck of it.
"Oh… right um…" Bella paused for a moment "I just … wanted to see if we're still on for this weekend…" she asked as her voice was small.
Edward's mood went from annoyed to anger to possibly happy anger annoyed kind of way, Alice wasn't sure but, she wasn't going to be there if that happens knowing how Edward felt when Bella visits Jacob and the mutts.
"Of course…" Edward stiffly replied.
"Great… I'll uh see you tomorrow…" Bella whispered.
"Don't you have a dentist appointment tomorrow at 9:30 in the morning?" Edward asked.
Bella made a tired sigh "Yeah but, I still want to see you tomorrow anyway?"
"Well I'll see you after your dentist appointment tomorrow then,"
"Okay…" Bella whispered "I love you,"
"I love you too…"
"Wait Edward-"Bella blurted out.
"Yes Bella?"
"I forgot to tell you … it must've slipped my mind but, my cousin Hermione Granger is coming here to finish her last year of school along with a bunch of her close friends we haven't seen each other since we were 11 years old. We've been exchanging many letters but, then it started to stop 4 years ago. From what my dad told me apparently she's been extra busy hanging out with her friends in her boarding school so I haven't seen or heard from her since then… and her siblings Logan… Max… Jayden… Cameron… Ariel and Aqua are here in Forks… with their families with my aunt and uncle with the twins too,"
