Chapter 4- Arrival

(a/n)I am so sorry it has been such a long time since I have updated! I feel so bad but my computer was stupid and stopped working so I had to go get it fixed and I already had typed ¾ of this chapter so I didn't want to have to re-type it. I have also been really busy with family visiting and stuff so it has been a very late update. Anyways this is an extra long chapter and I will get the next one out hopefully tomorrow and finally Seth comes in!!! Yay (cheers in the background) haha so R&R, thanks!

After we got all of my bags, Grammy and I headed to the car. Sure enough it was the old police car; I internally groaned. This was going to be a slow car ride. Grammy used to be head police chief a long time ago and she loved her job. Later when she retired she kept her police cruiser and just took of the lights. No one argued with her because they knew it was pointless. Now I get to be the lucky girl to ride in the car, ugh. Grammy insisted on me driving even though I would have much rather not. Talk about a back seat driver. Every five seconds I would get another correction about how I was going to fast, going to slow, not putting on my blinker, I should learn how to merge on to traffic better, I shouldn't slouch so much, I mean c'mon really does my posture matter so much. She would also repeat herself a million times and that got really annoying really fast. I love my grandma, but this is the last time I am driving in the car with her.

Finally we got to the house. It was already raining outside so I grabbed my bags and rushed to the door. I really hated the rain it was too loud at night and made my hair frizz uncontrollably plus it got you drenched and cold. However I did absolutely love the snow. It was so beautiful and didn't make any sound. I love just watching it softly fall to the ground and although I never tell anyone this, it reminds me of my parents. I was born December 2 and that happened to be the first snow of the year. On the first snow of every year my parents and I would have a family night sitting by the fire telling the scariest stories we could come up with and then camp out in the living room. It was one of the best memories I have of my parents. Many have faded, but those I still remember clearly. That's why my Uncle calls me snowflake, it is my favorite.

I snap out of my reminiscence and look at Grammy who is frantically searching for the keys to the house. Quickly I remind her that I have the house keys because they are hooked to her car keys. I open the door and walk inside.

Now Grammy's house is not too bad, it is two stories with two bedrooms and two bathrooms upstairs, and a living room and kitchen/dining room downstairs. It also had an attic.

"Now Cassidy, go upstairs to your new room, it is the second door to the left. I know it is a little childish, but you can go buy some new furniture to make your room more personal."

I trudge up the stairs realizing that I was going to have to spend the next five months of my life here. I could already tell I was going to hate it.

My suspicions were confirmed when I opened the door to my room and had to shield my eyes. The bright yellow walls were blinding and when I could finally see again I would have rather been blind. The room had a twin bed that had the alphabet sheets on it and there was a sparkling butterfly bead frame. There were big red, blue, and yellow blocks piled in the corner and the closet didn't even have a door. I mean really who decorated this someone who is colorblind!?! I quickly put my bags in the closet grabbed my purse and walked back down stairs.

"Grammy I am going to head out for a little while maybe get some new things for my room." Ya right I was going to completely re-do that room because there is no way I could live like that, "so I should be back in a few hours. I will leave my cell number on the fridge bye!"

I quickly scribble the number and head out the door. I stop dead in my tracks when I see what is in the driveway. Sitting there, glistening in the sun is a red Ferrari 360 spider; the exact car I have always wanted! I run to it and carefully open the door. On the drivers seat was a letter and it said:

Snowflake,

I know you weren't too happy about having to move out there to Forks, so I decided this would be a nice present to make it a little less difficult right?? Well I knew you always wanted this car and believe me your Aunty wasn't to happy about it, but I just want you to be happy. So please try to really give it a chance up there, at least try for me. Well call us right after you take this car out for a drive because I know that is the first thing you are going to do! Talk to you soon.

Love,

Uncle Bob

OMG!!!!!!!! I love this car so much and I just can't believe they would get me something like this! I can't wait to take it out on the road and see how fast this baby can really go. (a/n I know technically she only has her permit, but I want her to be able to drive for herself so just pretend by law you can drive by yourself with your permit!)

As I speed down the road I remember that if I want to get any shopping done I should go to Port Angeles. It was actually not that long of a drive considering I went way past the speed limit, but only on the back roads when no other cars were there. I blasted the music and sang a long until I totally forgot about all the problems I had in my life right now.

I saw a mall up the street so I decided to go park. When I saw the other cars I knew mine was way out of place, but I didn't care. It surprised me when I saw a yellow Porsche parked in the front, but it was probably just someone visiting. =)

I found a great spot right next to the entrance and when I was finally thinking my luck was picking up, it started pouring rain and thundering really loud. Great I thought sarcastically just what I wanted. I ran towards the entrance and slid inside almost falling because the ground was already wet.

I walked into the first home decorating store there was and headed straight for the teen room section. I looked around, but was finding it very difficult to see anything I really liked so I went over to the computer. After looking through some room models I found one I absolutely loved. (Pics on profile!) I decided to order everything from that room. I had a lot of money considering acting really pays well and my Aunt and Uncle were pretty wealthy to begin with. The manager said for an extra cost everything can be delivered and set up the next day from five to eight o'clock the next night. I said that would be fine and signed the paper.

Now the hard part was finding something to do during those three hours to get out of the house.

I decided to do a little shopping considering I was already at the mall so I went into this interesting little boutique. Once I walked through the door I fell in love with the store. It had really cute dresses and purses and jewelry. That's when I saw the most adorable black high heels I have ever seen. I went to go grab them when out of nowhere this pixie-like girl's hand reaches out and snatches them.

"Um, excuse me, but I saw those first and I was just about to get them." I stated a little rudely, but hey those were some pretty nice shoes.

"Oh I am sorry, it's just I really need theses shoes!! They just came out and I have been waiting for like ever!!" was it just me or was this girl a little over excited, "I know it was rude, but you don't understand how important these pair of shoes are!! I will die with out them" and a little over dramatic I would say.

"Oh C'mon Alice you don't need to explain yourself to this girl; you already have the shoes so there yours now lets go I want to go check out that other store." says this super pretty, but completely snobby girl. Who does she think she is?

"Rose that is mean, hold on a sec." She says to blondie. "Look I am really sorry, Rose is just in a little bit of a hurry. How about we make a deal I will find you the best pair of shoes in this whole store that would look perfect on you and in return you let me keep these?" I could see the pleading in her eyes and if they were really that important to her I could live with not having them. Damn I am a sucker for those puppy dog eyes.

"Sure Alice you can have them, but you really don't need to find me another pair of shoes; I think your friend over there wants you to leave." I say as I look over at blondie, who is glaring at me.

"Oh it's fine; I love a good shopping challenge! Rose can just hold on for a few minutes it's not like we don't have time." She says giving an annoyed look to blondie, who just rolls her eyes.

And like that she was off, fluttering around the store in search of shoes. I casually glanced around the store to see if I could find anything really cute, when Alice jumped up beside me.

"Alice, geez you almost gave me a heart attack!" I say out of breath.

"Oh sorry, here look what I found!!!"

She has lined up a pair of gorgeous gold high heels with a stunning red dress. And some gold jewelry to go with it! It was a beautiful outfit and I couldn't believe she picked everything out in such a short amount of time. I mean this totally beat the time when I was going to the awards show in Hollywood and in the limo I spilled sparkling cider all over the front, so we quickly stopped at a local mall and ran in and got everything in fifteen minutes flat. We were going super fast I thought too. Wow!

"Alice this is the most gorgeous outfit I have ever seen put together in such a short amount of time. You are like a super shopper! Haha"

"Thanks, I knew you would love it, now go in the dressing room and try it on!"

I do as she says and come out looking beautiful. Alice totally agrees and says I look perfect and I will definitely be using this outfit in the future, but how could she really know that. Rose was pretty quiet and just looked annoyed the whole time, but Alice just said she was jealous that I looked so great in the dress. Ya right, I would say I was pretty, but no where close to as drop dead gorgeous as Rosalie! I mean you couldn't even stand next to her with out feeling self conscious.

I was really starting to like Alice and I could see us being friends. She was a little older than me, but we got along great. We both loved shopping and loved driving fast cars. As for blondie, we didn't exactly hit it off. She finally decided to go home after just a few minutes, but Alice and I stayed and shopped a little longer. Apparently we both had compatible shopping styles. I looked at the time and it was already five so I told Alice I had to go and left.

Once I got in the car, I checked my phone and realized I had gotten a text from Melanie. It said:

Hi Cassidy! My family and friends are having a Bonfire at First Beach and I was wondering if you wanted to come??

Sure, that sounds great! I can't wait, what time?

Around six to probably ten, is that okayy?

Ya, definitely. See you then =) bye!

Well that was great, now I can go to the bonfire while the workers set up all the stuff in my room! Hmm… I wonder what Melanie's family is like.

Okay so that was the longest Chapter I have written so far!! I hope you liked it, you got to meet Alice and Rose, but don't worry Seth is coming up next Chapter and I will try to get it out real shortly! So a lot of people are reading my story, thank you =), but I am not getting very many reviews. Please review and you will get a special surprise! You know you want to know what it is so REVIEW!
