Disclaimer: I don't own Twilight.

12 long years have passed since I became a vampire. The twins were born on October 17th. I had a boy and a girl; Xavier Anthony Cullen and Elizabeth Alice Cullen. They are completely perfect. The birth was not as bad as I imagined and Cheyenne was a major help. They are half human and half vampire. They eat food more often than they drink blood, but naturally, they stick to animal blood. Xavier looks just like me. He has chocolate colored hair and big brown eyes, but his personality matches Edward's. He is very calm compared to his sister. He blushes easily like I did when I was human, but he never seems to get embarrassed. He doesn't care what others think about him and that is a quality that Edward had. Elizabeth looks just like Edward with curly bronze hair that falls at her waist and bright green eyes, but her personality is similar to mine. She's as stubborn as a mule, but graceful as a deer. When she makes up her mind, there is no changing it. She's fast like Edward, but has a very bad temper. They have a friend named Dexter that figured out what we were, but he was sworn to secrecy. I think he likes Elizabeth a lot more than he lets on. I never really told the kids about their dad. They've seen him a few times in my photo albums, but they don't know he's their father. I feel horrible for keeping it from them, but I don't want them to hurt more.

Our coven has grown in size besides the addition of my children. Cheyenne met a man named John when I was four months pregnant. They fell completely in love and he requested to be changed. They got married and are still completely in love. It's almost sickening. The second addition to our family was a man named Adam. He had attempted suicide and we were in the area. I don't know what made me want to save him, but I did. That all happened when I was six months pregnant. He met his singer, a woman named Kendall, a few months later. He ended up changing her and they are just as in love as John and Cheyenne. All of them showed incredible restraint when they were newborns, which was shocking. I never was tempted by human blood, and it amazes me that they weren't either. Liza brought me out of my thoughts by tapping my shoulder.

"Hey Mom, do you think we could go to a water park tomorrow?" Liza pleaded with big puppy dog eyes. I didn't have enough strength to refuse those eyes.

"Is it going to be sunny?" I asked. She grinned.

"I dunno, I'll ask Uncle Adam." Liza went running off to find Adam. Adam can see the future like Alice. Liza was running back in the room a minute later. "Nope, it's supposed to be cloudy all day tomorrow!" She beamed.

"I suppose we can go, but you have to convince everyone else." I laughed. Once again Liza ran off to tell the others. She wasn't always exuberant but she had her moments. Usually, she was excited about things like books, movies, and plays. Xavier liked skulls and rock music, but he wasn't the stereotypical "goth", he was really happy.

"Please tell me you did not tell her yes?" Cheyenne groaned while she walked in the kitchen.

"Not my fault, she used those evil little puppy dog eyes." I laughed, shaking my head.

"You're right. Nobody can say no to those, besides Xavier." Cheyenne laughed with me.

"I don't know how he does it." I snickered.

"I can't believe that they're turning thirteen in two months!" Cheyenne said with exasperation. I really couldn't believe it either. The time has just flown by.

"I know." I sighed. I spent the rest of the afternoon cleaning the house, even though there wasn't much to clean. Before I knew it, nightfall came and my lovely children were sleeping. Tomorrow will be so much fun for them.

Liza POV.

I was so excited to go to the water park. I've been feeling cooped up in the house for the entire summer. It was coming to an end and this was the last week of freedom. Monday was the start of 7th grade for Xavier and I. Mom and the rest of my family will be going to the same school, but as 11th graders. It's such a weird school, only 7th through 12th grade, but what else could you expect from common-core? I leaped out of my bed and grabbed my shirt that said 'Bite Me' on the front and 'Vampire Girl' on the back. I thought it was symbolic humor. I know what we are and what my family is. I don't find it scary. I actually think it's pretty awesome. Xavier feels the same way about it too. I threw on my swimsuit and put some clothes on over it, and headed into the bathroom that connected my brother's and I room. I cleaned up and brushed my hair before heading to his room. He was already dressed and ready to go as I found him reading a book in his chair. "Let's go downstairs!" I exclaimed with excitement. He laughed at me as I dragged him downstairs.

"Today is going to be fun." Xavier said excitedly. We ran down the stairs. We have vampire speed, hearing, talking and seeing and half vampire strength but we're not full vampires yet. Uncle Adam predicts that the full transformation occurs when we turn 20 years old, but then again, what does he know?

"Morning Mom, Uncle John, Aunt, Chey, Uncle Adam, and Aunt Kendall." Xavier and I said in unison. We laughed as did our family. I grabbed a Chewy bar our from under the cabinet for Xavier and an apple cinnamon fruit bar for me. I tossed the Chewy bar across the room to Xavier. Of course, he didn't catch it because he wasn't paying attention. He gave me the look I came to know as 'go to hell' and I gave him my 'piss off' look. Our family was laughing at out glares towards each other and we joined in with them. X and I ate in silence. "Let's get going!" I exclaimed while running out to our red jeep wrangler. I hopped in the very back as did Xavier. Uncle John and Aunt Chey and Uncle Adam rode in the back seat and Aunt Kendall rode passenger and my mom was driving. Great, now I know we'll get there in like 5 minutes. My mom can drive like a maniac sometimes. We sped out of the drive way like a bat out of hell. I gave X the look that said 'Moms going to kill us.' We each grabbed a pole of the jeep and held on for our lives. Uncle Adam and Uncle John laughed when they saw us. We pulled up to the water park in what felt like no time at all. This will be fun!

Xavier's POV

We pulled up to the water park in such a short amount of time. Mom is psycho when she drives. I looked at all the slides and rides in the park and smiled. This could be fun. I jumped down and landed with a thud while Liza did the same. We walked up to the entrance and our family was close behind. Mom and Aunt Chey dazzled our way in for free. You have to love being inhumanly beautiful and immortal sometimes.

2 hours later...

We had hit all the most of the rides, there were still some to go. The slides were the best. I was getting hungry from all the excitement and I knew I saw a pretzel stand not that far away. I told Mom that Liza and I are going go find some food. She barely let us leave alone, but we found the stand within 5 minutes of looking. We both ordered our favorite; pretzels with nuts. It's weird how similar we are. We sat at a table near the stand to eat, and then on the way back to our family; we got lost.

"You just had to have your precious pretzel didn't you?" Liza said, her words dripping with sarcasm.

"I didn't know we would get lost." I retorted.

"Yea, but if you would have waited, we wouldn't be lost right now!" Liza yelled, her temper getting the best of her.

"Well, I would have starved." I said, annoyed at her attitude. I saw some inhumanly beautiful people just like Mom coming up to us. They were vampires, but I didn't care. They watched our conversation.

"You could have gone another hour without food." Liza retorted back.

"Oh, don't blame this on me; it's as much your fault as it is mine!" I sneered. She hates getting lost and it was slightly amusing.

"How the hell do you come to that conclusion dipshit?" Liza asked.

"If you would have given me another Chewy bar, I wouldn't have been hungry!" I mocked. Her eyes widened with her rage.

"You didn't say you wanted more than one! And I didn't even have to get you one!" Liza shrieked. I noticed that the vampires were right behind Liza. She caught my gaze and turned around and said. "Are you just gonna continue eavesdropping on our fight or you going to tell us what you want?" Liza asked with a snappy tone. I nearly lost it.
