But all of that will be over soon c: I have competition for OAP tomorrow, and region practices for band have ended (finally) so…my schedule be almost completely free for you guys c:
So now, on that happy note, happy reading ;)
Bella POV:
Do you remember how I said I hated Elena? No? Well, I hate Elena.
..Okay, maybe that isn't completely true. But she did irritate me to no end.
"What are you singing? What are you going to wear? Ohmygosh, you should totally wear that designer dress I saw in your closet…"
"When did you go into my closet?" I demanded, turning back to look at her with incredulous eyes.
Her eyes widened at her mistake, and she started stuttering out. "Umm…what? I-I didn't…why would I…? Oh look, the bell just rang!" And with that she scurried off.
I rolled my eyes. We were barely walking out of Biology. I fixed the bag on my shoulders before walking on, eventually reaching my Advanced Calculus class.
The thing about small towns? It's easy to spot someone new. I think I had heard of her…Rhiannon? Yea, I think her name was Rhiannon. She already had half the guys falling on their knees for her, and the other half, were, well gay, and drooling over her amazing style choice. And it was easy to see why. She was gorgeous, obviously grew up well. Her clothes screamed designer, and she had a tan that girls would pay for.
I've never been one to talk to many people suddenly, but now felt like a good time. So I went up to her, following my instincts and all that stuff that heroines do in stories.
I looked down at her with a smile. "You're…Rhiannon, right?"
She stalled looking up at me. "Yea, umm…hi. Isabella Swan, right? It rings a bell."
"Mind if I call you Rhi, then? If we apparently know each other so well?"
"Depends, can I call you Isa?" she smirked up and looked into my eyes.
Two things about them set me off.
The first thing was that they held so much power. They were the kind of eyes that even Yoda couldn't pull off, not even…Dumbledore. They just…were all knowing. And while it did make me fidget for a second that they held so much knowledge, it was the second thing that through me off balance. Looking into her eyes, I realized that we had definitely known each other for a long time. The nickname, and those piercing green eyes…it all came together when I looked at her.
Our eye contact sent me off. I distinctly recall a man – a friend of Charlie's – being the only person to call me Isa. Apart from his daughter.
She was my best friend, when I was young.
Flashback:
"5 Mississippi… 4 Mississippi… 3 Mississippi… 2 Mississippi… 1 Mississippi…I'm coming!"
My spot was perfect for hide and seek. It was the perfect little sheet of moss, covering a hole in the tree.
And while the sheet was great, and would've fooled anyone else, I knew it wouldn't fool Rhiannon. It would be an understatement to call her my sister. She was like my twin. We had a bond, a magnetic pull that we both couldn't explain. But it didn't matter. We didn't need an explanation for a wonderful bond such as this.
It was a normal occurrence for our fathers to let us play in the woods. We'd never been hurt before…
But that was the day it happened. Rhiannon had come looking for me, and of course found me. And that's when we heard.
It sounded human…but at the same time, it was…animalistic.
I instantly pulled her back into the hiding spot with me. But the…thing… was better. It had better senses, and suddenly, a beautiful girl who looked like Elena – Katherine, my mind growled -, smiled at us cynically.
"Aww, two tiny little girls," she pouted. "What's your name, sweetie?" she asked Rhiannon. I glowered at her. Even as a child, I knew this woman was up to no good.
"Rhiannon," she replied, probably scared of what would happen if she didn't answer.
Katherine smiled again before turning to me. "And yours, honey?"
"Isabella," I told her defiantly.
This only made her smile wider. "Good to know."
And just as I started to stare in horror before she bit into Rhiannon, I heard several shots ring, and Katherine went down, cold and unconscious.
My father and Rhiannon's – Robert, I remember now - , came up to us and hugged us for dear life.
From there there are only flashes in my memory. I know they got rid of Katherine, or at least left her somewhere where she couldn't mess with us again. And then the dreaded conversation that changed everything, even made me forget my best friend.
"Charlie," Robert hissed. "We need them to learn how to defend themselves. We can't have them being defenseless!"
"Robert," my dad growled back. "They need to move on with their lives! What are the chances that they'll ever get involved with vampires again?" If only you knew, Charlie…
"I'm not going to let my daughter go into the world unprepared."
"Well I'm not going to prevent my daughter from living her life normally!"
They glared at each other in the kitchen, not realizing that Rhiannon and I were looking at each other with wide eyes in the next room. Dad and Uncle rob never fought. What did this mean?
I heard Charlie sigh. It was his way of letting people know he was done with a conversation. "Then I'm sending Bella off to Renee. Take care of Rhiannon whichever way you see fit."
There was a long silence. Uncle Rob sighed again, his first sign of defeat. "Okay…" I heard scuffles of what must've been a man hug coming from the kitchen. Finally, Uncle Rob came into the next room, and gave me a kiss on the forehead. "Take care of yourself, Isa." He then picked up Rhiannon and shook Charlie's hand before walking out the door, letting an "I hope I see you again, Charlie," slip out with a tear as he walked out, and drove away with my sister in the passenger seat.
In the matter of seconds, I had realized why she mattered to me so much. I know that we were meant to support each other, and that this was just fate's way of making sure we came together like we were supposed to.
"Rhi?" I choked out.
"Isa?" she replied. I nodded with tears in my eyes, and she rose to embrace me. I could feel peoples' eyes on us, but I didn't care, just hugged her with all I had. I had my sister back.
Satisfied? For a little while at least? I hope so.
