I was lost. I didn't know what to feel. Seeing Edward again brought back so many feelings, memories, forgotten emotions, I just didn't know what to feel. It was going to take an hour to get to London, and the whole trip Sam has been talking this through with me. She's the only one I could seem to trust with my life story, so when their were times when I would feel down, she knew it was because of them, and would be there for me.
I was in my room, depressed as ever. Today was the day when everything began. When he left and I embarked on a rode of misery, power, and at the end, a form of contentment. I don't think I'll never be happy ever again, but that doesn't mean I can't be grateful for the family I found, and have come to love. Listening to my lullaby that he wrote was the only thing keeping me together at this moment. It was the only thing I had left of him, and no matter what he says, I will always love him, and it hurts to know that he won't ever.
"Damn my life," I sighed rolling over to my back, putting my arm over my eyes to shut out the light.
It was then that I herd the knock on my door, and herd Sam come in. As I sat up and turned my iPod off, she came over and sat next to me, and took my hand into hers.
"What's up Bella? These day's you have been a little down, and as your best bud, I gotta understand why. So what's up?"
Did I ever mention that sense I've been here, I haven't told anything about myself but about my power? Know one has really been pestering me about it, but Sam. She has been the only friend I've been able to keep sense everything has started, this day 90 years ago; and she's the only one in this family that I can trust, not that I can't trust everyone else, but I guess, the only on I can see keeping a secret like this, no even telling her husband, Trevor.
"Ok," I sighed," but you have to promise not to tell anyone ok? You're the only one I truly trust, and by that, not telling anyone."
"Sure, I have no problem, but you know that we are in a house full vampires, so if anything happens, I didn't tell."
I smirked," I know about that, that's why, so we don't have to leave the house, we can just do this."
I jumped into the air, using the air, to keep me up, while I created a ball of air to surround us, making it impossible to hear. Sitting back next to Sam, I started laughing at her face.
"You should see your face! And see, I fixed the problem, now nobody can hear us. You can scream as loud as you can but know one will hear you."
"Ho...bu...and you...from the beginning now. I want details. How this all air thing came together, your changed, everything!"
"Ok. I told you I would, you didn't have to try out the screaming thing though." I said shaking my head. That one hurt.
"Sorry, but really from the very very beginning."
I took a big breath," My parents meet at-"
"Bella, you know what I mean!"
Looking her in the face, I started my legendary tell from Edward, to my change, to my powers (the full extent), training, everything family and all. Three hours later I was finished talking, and Sam just sat their for at least a few minutes, before any words left her lips; but it was what she said, that threw me off guard.
" I don't think Edward left because h didn't love. From everything you've said about you and him, and I mean you spent over and hour and 45 minutes on that, I think there was a different cause to his leaving you."
"What?"
"Know really. It had to be something else, and whether its something stupid or not, you will see him again, and you'll find out the truth then."
I jumped at her, giving her a bone crushing hug.
"That's something that I've needed to hear for a long time," I let her go, and sat next to her," To hear what he said, and know that deep down, I still love and can't stop loving him, hurts."
She gave me a hug, as I started to sob on her shoulder. This really did help, letting it all out. At least someone will know, and I'm glad that it was Sam.
"Remember the day I told you everything, about my past?"
"Yeah?"
"You were right. I finally did see him again, and you know what, I think I will get those answers."
"That's the spirit. Know sense we have about what 5 minutes left, we should be hearing Trevor soon. I'll let you know when he rings."
"Ok." I turned the connection off between us and though about earlier. It was starting to irritate me that I ran away like I did. I want answers from him, but something tells me that I'm not ready to hear what he has to say. You think 100 years would prepare me for that. It's just that seeing him again, brought open a hole that I tired to close, after telling Sam everything I did. How ironic can this get! I mean her words just keep ringing in my ears!
Argh! I just need to calm my self. If I go out there like this, I may really hurt somebody. Ok, so I know Sam has been practicing, but so have I. Ahh, the sweet victory I shall receive. She thought that she could ask Diane, to make it rain, knowing how it can creep me out, with all the sliding, but I put that to my advantage. Know one said you couldn't drift on a bike.
My phone started to ring in Sam and Trevor.
"Oi Trevor, Sam, time to race?"
"Girl you know it, time to smoke your ass."
I herd her laughing on the other line. Ya, she asked it to rain.
"Ladies before something starts...again, you're about to start in one minute."
"Ok ok Trevor, I shall be a good girl," I started to flip switches, turning on my Turbo and NOS, stuff like that, "Anyway thought of some songs for the concert in Japan."
"Same here, we've been discussing here and there."
"Well we shall discuss the song choice with the rest of the band later. Right now, you have a race to star in. 10 secs."
"Lets Rock n' Roll Bella!"
"This shit's mine," Bring on the rain.
"5," I looked over to Sam, saluting her off with the peace sign. Have you ever herd about the peace sign, being the symbol for "Fuck You"; you flipping Salomone off, the bird. Well its only something I herd, never bothered to try it out...,till now, "2, 1."
"Ja." I changed gears, using my turbo.
"Peace." I herd Sam. Something told me she was pissed.
"GO!"
And we were off. Switching gears, I speed forward, Sam not to far behind. We were speeding through cars, taking back roads. My favorite, going through the sidewalks, cutting through.
I was losing but not by much. I played a joke on Sam, and speed through a car port. When I got to the top, I noticed a ramp, that looked to be used for construction. Turning towards it, I saw that Sam was taking a short cut through Hyde Park. The best way to get through London from her point was to go through Grosvenor Pl., landing on Vauxhall Bridge Rd. Cross the bridge, and your out, after a short ride.
"Like hell you are."
I was stationed on the Mayfair parking lot, in front of Hyde Park Corner. If I switch gears and use my NOS, this race is mine.
Sam was speeding down Park Ln. I had a mile stretch of land in front of me a ramp, and the rode below. Throttling it, I speed off. With half a mile down, I reached 145. That was it. I hit the NOS, and I was off. I used the force of the NOS, to do a double flip, softening my landing. Lucky for me, I landing on a pile of dirt, near the building site of some building. But that's not the best part. The best part, is that I landed in front on Sam. Man I couldn't wait to hear that one later.
As I crossed the bridge, I noticed a light sprinkle, but that didn't long, for the term 'Raining like cats and dogs', was expressed.
"Dear Bella, what will she do know that it's raining?"
"Drift." And that's exactly what I did.
Vauxhill Bridge Rd, was known to be one of the busiest rodes in London, but it was the easiest route out. With all of these cars, I would be very nerves, and slow down to about 130. Right now I'm going about 180, and staying there. With so many cars, I weaved through each one like it was nothing, drifting from one lane to the other, passing one car, to the next. I enjoyed myself immensely.
Finding myself out of London three minutes later, I slowed down, so Sam could catch up. When she did, she flicked my off. Well whatever. Just to let you know peaced her off. I turned on our connection so we could talk.
"Ho-"
"DON'T! I AM SO NOT IN THE MOOD!! WAIT TILL I GET DIANE!!"
"I was ju-"
"I SAID DON'T! You follow me. I'm the only one who knows how to get home."
"Fine. Crazy bitch." I mumbled.
"What did you say?" she growled.
"Lead the way."
EPOV
As the words left Trevor's lips, he hung up the phone, and the girls were off. It was just insane, how they were driving, but it was also with skill.. So many times, when I think she would hit something, she would dodge at the last second. It was to suspenseful, but enjoyable to see them race. It was just amazing that the fragile woman I knew so long ago, turned into someone fierce. She was dangerously speeding in and out of sidewalks,cars, and traffic, you wouldn't believe your eyes.
Some point during the race, Sam got in front of Bella.
"Ha! Finally! Looks like we won't have to make it rain after all."
"Why would you want it to rain?" asked Rosalie
"Well you see, Bella has this fear of driving in like heavy rain. It messes with her sense's and she becomes a lazy driver. Last time we raced and Diane made it rained, I think she hit two tree's before falling of a cliff. Well from what she told us. All we know is that she came home with a metal pipe stuck in her leg, and I mean it was in one way, and out the other."
"Ohh I remember that. Took us forever to get that thing out. She almost burned us all to death if it wasn't for Sam." said Sean, laughing.
We were all looking at them with horrified looks. Two trees, off a cliff, and a pipe through her leg?! What the hell?!
"What? I got something in my nose?" Trevor was looking around, trying to find what we were staring at, when it was him
"Are you serious?! I mean how can you laugh at that?!" screeched Alice.
"Woah pixie, keep the tone down."
Alice shot Trevor a menacing look.
"Or scream, the louder,the better!."
"Well we caught hell when she came home. I don't think we've ever herd such a beautiful vocabulary from her yet. Diane got some of the blow, sense she started the storm." said Sean
"Well why would you want to do it again?" I asked
"Well that was the first and last time anyone beat Bella; and that was ten years ago! And also the girls are desperate. Neither love going shopping and Diane here loves it. It's her own addiction and she will drag anyone to the mall. Anyway that was what the girls bet on. Whoever lost, had to go willing, whenever Diane wanted, shopping for a whole year; and that can mean all 365 days."
At the mention of these words, Alice got jumpy and excited.
"Could I assist you in these activities?"
"Oh you may."
"I think we created a demon duo." mumbled Emmett
Everyone laughed, till the returned their attention to the screen. It was then that I couldn't find Bella.
"Where did Bella go?"
"Hmmm let me look around, see if I can spot her." answered Alice
After a minute of looking around, Alice finally found her with her helmet off, on top of a parking building. Julius, Trevor, and Sean looked at the screen before turning to Alice, "What's in front of her." They said together.
Alice moved the joystick around till she moved the camera in front of the bike. In her wake was a ramp leading off the building and into the air.
"What I say son? She was going to find it somewhere and do it! New bets!" said Julius.
"What's going to happen?" Carlisle asked cautiously.
"She's gonna jump."
"WHAT?!" we screamed, well except Emmett and Alice.
"Cool. Does she do stunts?" Emmett asked. Alice was just smirking
"Does she? Thats what we're betting on! Ok I bet double flip."
"Superman." was Trevor's bet.
"Running man," Sean
"Handstand," Sarah
"Back flip off the bike," Diane
"Are you serious? Bella would never do those tricks...would she?" asked Rosalie
We herd the bike rev, and turned to see Bella positioned in front of the ramp. We also noticed Sam coming up down the rode not far behind.
"Know she didn't." said Julius
"Do what?" we all asked
"Watch."
And at the sound of his words, she was off. Every gear switched gave her a boast, which I could only guess as her Turbo. The lot was a mile in length, and by the half-mile marker, we were all standing up ans she hit the nitrous button. When she reached the ramp and jumped off, everyone was holding their breathes on the outcome. In the air, Bella pulled off a beautiful double flip with the bike, before landing easily on a pile of dirt, in front of Sam!
"Well I be damn. She actually did it." mummbled Jasper
"SHE ACTUALLY DID IT?" they all screeched.
"Well I'm sorry. I've never seen her do anything like that before." he said freaking out a bit.
We went back to the TV, when we herd a phone ring. We turned towards the source, to see Trevor looking at his cell phone scared.
"You're in troubleeeeeeeeee."
"Shove off it Sean. I'm not scared...I'm frightened." he whimpered.
"I'd answer it if I were you, or you'll be in worse trouble than what you'll get." said Alice.
When Alice said 'worse', he had the phone on and to his ear.
"H-Hello?"
"TREVOR!! WHAT THE HELL!!"
Trevor almost dropped the phone, juggling it in his hands till he finally had a firm grip on it.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry," he kept repeating, while he looked at Diane whispering, "Start the rain, start the rain!"
"Ok, Ok, sheesh."
"Is it raining, please say it raining."
"Yep! Thank you! Love ya babe." she said happily as she hung up.
"I love her but damn she's scary. How much are you letting it rain?"
"Does the term "Raining like cat's and dog's" mean anything?"
"Well, we will have to look and see." I said and turned toward the TV.
I was freaking out inside. From what they said, she could come here with a lamp post stuck in her chest, and I'm not looking forward to that one. Looking at the rain, you could barely see them, but what got us all was when she started to drift with the bike, using the rain as a slide.
"When she learn that?!" asked Sean
"When she get the tires to do that?" asked Trevor
"You know? It could be that day she spent down in the garage tuning all the bikes and cars, and fixing the engine on my old RX-7." answered Julius.
"Bella and cars?" Rosalie asked
"Of course. If we have any problem with our rides we go to Bella or Sean. They seem to know what to do." he said
Rosalie sat back with a weird face goin on. She seemed to be showing a mix of emotions that were making her confused.
"Guys look!" screamed Alice
We turned around at the last second to see Bella leave London first, having Sam right behind her 10 seconds later. Trevor hung his head in defeat.
"Damn...I'm gonna get it."
"You were the only one who bet on her weren't you?," said Sean
Trevor gave a nervous laugh,"What do you think will happen when she finds out I didn't?"
The family groaned.
"Come on Trev! She doesn't go Boom Boom for nothing! I mean come on man! We don't grow back!"
"Maybe she loves me enough...not t-to burn me."
"And the last time we had to find your arms?" questioned Julius
"You're gonna have to hide me man! I'm to young to die...again."
"Relax. If anything we can ask Bella to control Sam."
Me and my family gave him a questioning look, but no one bothered to ask. We all knew that we would get answers so we didn't push the subject. All we had to do know was wait till they came.

I was following Sam to our house, when I decided to call Trevor up and tell him who one.
"Bella. I thought you were Sam."
"Well sorry to burst your bubble buddy, but I'm not your pyro-matic wife.
"Bella," he warned.
"I know, just kidding. Anyway I just called because I'm bored, and I wanted to tell you who won the race."
"Yeah, we know you won. We saw it happen."
"You...saw. How did you see me win the race?"
"Uh...Sarah figured out how to re-wire the cameras in London so we could see you guys race. Nice jump by the way."
"Well damn thats cool. Anyway I'm waiting to see that jump on the tube. Though I'm gonna have to re-paint the bikes. Someone will noticed them, if we keep on riding them. Also need to work on them as well. Still, you may wanna call your wife, I'm seeing sparks right now, and I am so not in the mood for a fight."
"Yeah sure thing Bells. Well I'll see you when you get her. Please just make sure she doesn't go Boom Boom."
I laughed. "Sure thing", and I hung up. I was thinking of calling my personal TNT, but decided not to. Let her cool down.
As we got off the exit to our house, I was thinking of songs we could use for our concert in Japan. I had a few, but I wasn't sure if they would be good, and I wanted to sing one song in English. Oh, well the concert is only a week away. We got time. Reaching the house, I got off my bike and turned it off. Sarah must have wanted something light, this time. But I swear she said the house was black. I gave Sam a look.
"What happened to dark and menacing?"
"Are you talking about me or the house?"
Now that I think about it, I guess both, "Both."
"I don't know on the house one, but I'm fine. I cooled down after I talked to Trevor." I smirked at her, as I continued to take off my wet clothes. Diane let it poor today. Taking off my jacket and bike pants, I was left with a pair of Black Converse, skinny jean with a few chains, and a black tank top, with a white undershirt. I combed my hair with my hands, and walked towards the house. Sam had the same outfit as mine, but her shoes and shirt were purple.
"You know what we should do in Japan?" I asked
"What?"
"Go snowboarding. We haven't been in a while, and Japan has the best slopes."
"Thats a great idea!! Man this will be a fun trip now. No just go play concert and come back."
I grinned when I opened the door, but lost it as I turned around. What I saw was not just my family, buy his as well. We were in his house, and Sam set me up. I knew she would do this, sense we finally saw each other again. I was staring in his eyes, and I couldn't pull away. I wanted so badly to run towards him, kiss him, have him hold me in his arms, but I knew I couldn't! It was a pain that I would have to live with, for eternity.
Stepping forward I was able to break his gaze, to give Sam and glare, while she just shrugged it off.
"You know it would happen."
"But I didn't know this soon." I whispered
I turned to look at everyone, but it was then that I noticed Julius and Carlisle.
"Well damn, looks like I'm right. I always knew you two had to be related, but I didn't know you were twins."
They both looked surprised at each other, while I rolled my eyes, crossing my arms.
"Come off it you two. I mean seriously, I spent over a year with these guys, and when I found you and your family, it was only natural you were related from not only looks but last name."
Julius gave a sigh, and looked from his brother to me, "Yeah that makes sense. But Bella-"
"It's time," said Sam. "You need to tell them everything you told me. Everybody needs to know."
I looked down at my feet, before meeting his eyes again. So much emotions were going through him, and they were confusing me yet again.
"Yeah," I answered. " I think so to."
