Author's Note: Sorry for the late update. The new semester started and I had to keep up with my new classes. Thank-you for all of your reviews.
It was early Saturday morning, and today was the day Rosalie and I were leaving for our road trip back to Forks.
"Suitcases?" I asked Rosalie.
"Check," she replied.
"Credit Card. Junk Food. Toiletries?"
"Check, check, and check. Chill Bella, everything is going to go fine. Besides, if we forget anything, we can just call Mom and ask her to send it to us. It's all good."
"Okay okay. I'm fine. Let's get going," I replied. I took a deep breathe. Everything will be fine, I reminded myself.
"Girls?" I heard Renee calling us. Rosalie and I headed over to her and gave her a hug. "Be safe, and call me when you get there, and if you need anything," she told us. She released us and we made our way to the car getting in, and driving off.

"Alright, I figured that if we drove straight through the first few days, taking turns driving, that would put as ahead a few days. And when we get there, we have time for me to register and to go shopping for school. Oh my God! This is going to be so fun," Rose said, clapping her hands together enthusiastically.
"So tell me what Forks is like!" she asked.
"There isn't much to it. Lots of green and way too much rain for my liking. It's really small. A town where everybody knows everyone and everyone knows everything about you," I replied.
"What are the people there like?"
"I am the wrong person to be asking that to," I said, keeping my eyes intently on the highway. "Nobody really gave me a chance to get to know them. They all had there little group of friends, and I was the freaky girl that nobody liked. I guess you could describe them as boring from what I noticed. It's like everyday is the same day over and over again."
"Well that sounds great," Rose replied sarcastically. "So tell me about this group of popular kids."
"Well, first there is Alice Cullen. She seems nice enough. She is very short, about 4'11. She has bright blue eyes and short black hair. She is also Edward's sister. They were adopted. Then there is Jasper Hale. He seems shy. He is tall and lanky, with dark blue eyes, chin length wavy blonde hair, and is also Alice's boyfriends. Then Emmett McCarthy. He is extremely tall. He looks like a body builder, with blue eyes, and curly dark hair. He seems like a friendly guy. "
"What about Edward?" she asked.
"Edward.." I sighed. "He is mysterious to me. One minute he was the sweetest guy to me and the next he would bully me beyond belief. Well mostly he was sweet when no one was around. He is relatively tall. He has these mesmerizing green eyes, and bronze colored hair. He is gorgeous."
"Sounds like it. Okay how about twenty questions?!" she said. "I will go first! If you had a girl, what would you name her?"
"Hmmm…I like the name Vanessa, but I'm not really sure. I have awhile till I have to decide baby names. Okay, my turn. If you were to have a boy, what would you name him?" I asked.
"Uhhh, I always liked the name Masen for some reason."
"I like that name too." I replied.

After what felt like twenty rounds of twenty questions, we had finally moved on to a different game. It had been six hours since we left New York.
"Alright, it has been six hours. It's your turn to drive the next six hours. So we will each have four six hour shifts driving and then we will find a place to crash for the third night," I told Rose. I pulled onto an exit and into a gas station. It was now 3 o' clock in the afternoon. I hopped out of the driver's seat and into the passenger's seat, waiting for Rosalie to fill the tank up. (I don't know if Hybrids need both gas and electric or what. So just play along. :) ) Rosalie finished up and got back into the car, and we continued going.

The next days felt forever long. I hadn't gotten much sleep, because by the time I got to sleep, I was woken up again for my shift. We had made it to a little town in Ohio. (AN: I am not sure how far they traveled, so I am just going to make it up as I go.) We found a cheap motel to crash for the night. After purchasing a room, and grabbing and overnight bag, we went to our room. It wasn't the best place I have ever stayed. There were two twin size beds with ugly green bedding and a wooden nightstand in between them. There was a old desk with a TV that looked like it was way out of its time. The bathroom looked decent enough. At least they kept it clean. I threw my bag on the floor and flopped down on the bed.
"I'm going to take a shower," Rose said. She walked past my bed with her belongings and into the bathroom, shutting the door behind her.
I closed my eyes, trying to let my eyes rest. My mind was wandering all over the place. I was remembering the time Jessica and her little friends Tanya and Lauren thought it would be funny to trip me when I was walking down the hallway.
It was late in freshman year, and I was walking down the hallway to Spanish class when Jessica, Edward, Lauren, and Tanya walked by. Jessica stuck her foot out, and being the klutz I am, I tripped and fell sprawled onto the floor. My books were scattered all over the hallway. I looked up to see all of them standing around laughing. I quickly picked up my books and ran to the bathroom, before anyone could see the tears threatening to spill.
After Rose finished her shower, I took mine. I then got in bed and covered up and fell into a deep slumber.
The next morning we were on the road again, on our way back to the town I only wanted to get away from. But now, I was ready to face them again, and this time they wouldn't bring me down.
In case you didn't know, I do not own these characters. Reviews are much appreciated. :)
