HEY GUYS! :)) thanks a lot to those who reviewed! :D [I appreciate it…so much]

At last…I'm still grounded…I just sneak behind their backs. :)) [I think I did well. Since I haven't been caught.]

Anyways…..I DON'T OWN THE CHARACTERS.

Again, I DON'T OWN THE CHARACTERS! But..I do own the storyline ;)

So, here's Chapter 3: NEWS and Packing!


Alice and I literally screamed at the news. And started jumping up and down!

I still can't believe it…we're gonna be adopted!

And by the same people….which means…

We're legal sisters! AAAAH! :)) I'm so excited.

Alice Swan and Bella Swan…gosh. That's so much to take in.

"Girls. Girls. I know you are both excited. But please, calm down. You still have to pack since your new parents are gonna fetch you tomorrow morning.", Angela screamed, trying to get our attention.

"Oh My Gosh. Bella. I can't believe it! We're gonna be sisters! I'm so excited! THIS IS MY BEST BIRTHDAY EVER", Alice squealed.

"I'm so happy for us!" I squealed back at her.

"I can actually take you shopping…" she went on while we were going back to our room but I zoned her out because I was planning to do something after we pack.

"Earth to Bella! Are you even listening?" Alice said while waving in my face.

"What? Sorry. What did you say?"

"I asked you if I could do you some packing, if not all." Alice replied.

"Uhmm..yea. sure. But not all. Kay?" I was hesitant to reply. God knows what she would pack for me but I realized that if she did, I would have some alone time which I needed.

"Kay."

After we parted ways to do our packing, I went to the beside drawers of my bed to pack the most important ones for me first which includes the letter and the velvet box from Edward and make sure that they were in the compartment in my bag for safe keeping. Then I packed the few dresses, jeans, shorts, shirts and shoes that I owned and left clothes for tomorrow.

Since I was packed, I told Alice I was done which means she can pack whatever else and that I was going out to the back.

As I reached mine and Edward's tree, I started to reminisce our days together and just let the tears fall if they may.

*flashback* (5 years ago)

"Hey Bella, let's play hide and go seek!" Edward said.

"Yeah. Sure. But you're it?" I said.

"Sure."

I went to hide by the wall. But I guess it was going to be easy to find me so I went to hide under the slide.

"…5…4…3…2…1 ready or not, here I come Bella!" Edward screamed form the tree. It was universally known that the tree was the base.

I could hear Edward approach as he said, "Where oh where could Bella be?"

I really couldn't hide my laughter anymore and with that, I laughed. Giving away where I hid, Edward came to the slide and said, "Yes! I found you!" and tried to tag me but I ran, heading to the tree version of a base. I knew Edward was very fast so I ran as fast as I could but being me, I tripped onto thin air and fell flat on my face.

"BELLA? Are you alright? Are you hurt? Speak to me!" Edward said, shaking my shoulders while trying to lift me.

"Of course I am Eddie! Why are you so worried anyway? I just fell, aren't you used to that by now?" I asked. He always gets so worried when I trip or fall that it sort of scares me that I'll give him a heart attack someday.

He helped me stand but kept his hands on mine then he placed his forehead on my own so he could look me in the eye with his emerald orbs and said, "Because Bella, you're my best friend. I can't just sit and watch you get hurt. You don't know how it's tortured me. So I always try to keep you safe, from anything, even yourself."

*end flashback*

I climbed up the tree and continued to remember different times with Edward as different questions ran through my head. How is he now? Is he still in sunny New York? Does he still look the same? Probably not. When will I see him again, or will I ever see him again anyway? Did his personality change, for better or for worse?

After how long and some more unanswered questions, I don't even remember, Alice appeared out of nowhere and said, "May I join you up there?"

"Sure!" I said.

I watched as she climbed the tree. She was so small that it was scary but hey, she's strong. Creepy.

"So, how are you, now that we just have one night left here?" she asked.

"I'm happy, excited and all that especially because you're coming with me." I said truthfully.

"Aren't you kind of sad that we're leaving everyone behind?"

"Of course I am but it doesn't change a thing."

"Yea. You're right. I actually feel the same as you. Trying to stay optimistic."

With that, we laughed. We talked some more until it was dinner time already.


YAY! Alice and Bella will be sisters [a lot of you knew/guessed right!] How does that sound? :)) Which means, they'll be out of the orphanage (a step closer to Eddie) :)) [I'm spoiling it, aren't I? sorry, I just can't help it] Sorry, I'm a sucker for happy endings. :))

YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO NOW, RIGHT?

REVIEW! Yes! So you could tell me how you feel and how I could make It better and even give me suggestions on the story so that it'll be better! ;)

I'm already working on the next chapter…I need some suggestions for their house 'cause I'm no good when it comes to interiors [but I do have some ideas….but I still want to hear from you!] ;)

Thanks again to those who reviewed! :D

Those reviews mean much to me ;)

Later,

Camille. :}
