B POV
Over the last few weeks, things have been… complicated. Truthfully, complicated was an understatement. I just couldn't find another word to use. For starters, turns out Charlie and Renee aren't my real parents, neither were Lec's for that matter. Turns out that Jean and Scott are. Not to mention that the story Lec and I were lying about, us being separated at birth and just meet- is actually true. I can't believe that all this time I've been living a lie. That we both have and no one had the decency to tell us. Of course the only people who knew where Professor Xavier, Charlie, Renee, Lec's parents, Jean and Scott. So at least we weren't the only ones who where surprised. Over the while that I was ignoring Jean, Scott, Professor Xavier, Charlie and Renee's messages, Carlisle and Esme seemed to be filling the forming gap. But now, the Cullens' were busy with something. I didn't know what, but for some reason it was keeping them very distracted. It most be big because it's been keeping Alice, Jasper, Emmett, Rosalie, and Edward out of school for the last couple of days. Meaning no me and Edward time.
I sighed sadly. We were in the parking lot in our usual parking spots, and I kept hoping that a silver Volvo would claim the spot next to my Lexus. But just like most wishes, it hasn't come true. Then a blue Mercedes Benz came into the spot. I hopped the hood of my car confused, not sure who the person was. Then a blonde stepped out the car and turned towards me.
"BELLA" she shrieked
"REAGAN" I yelled and ran over to hug my best friend "Oh my God! What are you doing here"
"I dunno" she shrugged "the old man said the rest of us need to move back down here, so we did"
"But why" I asked. What was the Professor up to now?
"If I knew I'd have an answer for ya, don't ya think" she said rolling her eyes. I laughed at her statement. The one thing about Reagan is that no matter what, she is one sarcastic chick. That and she's psychotic.
"True" I allowed "But what are you doing at Forks High"
"I'd figure I'd come and save you from your boredom before it killed you" she joked. I laughed
"Well, thank you for your consideration. I wasn't bored until recently" I admitted
"Oh really" she asked curiously "Have a man keepin ya busy Bells"
"Actually yeah" I said "until he disappeared doing God knows what with his family" I explained to her the fact that the Cullens' were vampires and how Edward and I were together. Also the fact that they knew we were mutants.
"Really" she said and I nodded "That's men and life for ya babe. So what he look like"
"Well, unbelievably gorgeous. An odd shade of bronze hair, great jaw line-"
"Perfect angles, not all that muscular, lean, and golden eyes" she finished
"Yeah. How'd you know" I asked
"Cause it looked like your man has come back from incognito" she said. I turned in the direction she was looking at. And sure enough, there were Edward along with the Cullens with a girl and three boys. The girl had short brown hair. She was just as short as Alice and had violet eyes, that didn't seem to fit her beautiful pale face. One of the boys had the same brown hair as her and was the same height as well; they looked like twins. The other boy was the size of Emmett and Peter with deep olive complexion contrasted with odd chalk pallor, as well as the other boy. Except his hair went to his shoulders. They were vampires.
"Edward" I said
"Bella, let me explain" he said
"that's the first line they say before they admit they cheated on ya" Reagan said. We turned to glare at her and she shrugged.
"Who are you" the small girl hissed
"Jane" Edward said placing his hand on her shoulder
"And that's the move that the move that ends you up on the Jerry Springer show" Reagan said placing her hands on her hips. I slapped her in the arm. "It is"
"Edward what's going on" I asked
"That's what I'm going to explain now" he said. I looked at Reagan, daring her to say another word. She held her hands up defensively, obviously surrendering.
"Go ahead" I said
"This is Jane and her brother, Alec. This is Demetri and Felix" he said gesturing to the others behind "They're part of the Volturi"
"Part of the what" Reagan asked cocking her head to the side.
"The Volturi. We're a family of vampires. You could pretty much say were like royalty" the girl, Jane. She looked absolutely bored and disgusted at the scene around her.
What's up her ass Reagan thought idly. I shrugged slightly so no one would notice, but of course they did.
"What was that" Jane asked "And who are you again"
"My name is Bella Swan. I'm the leader of my team and member of the X-Men. This is my co-captain, Reagan. My lieutenant, Lec Fields, isn't here at the time being. She's out with the rest of my team. It's a pleasure to meet you all" I said with authority.
Well hot damn! Somebody had authority flakes in her cereal Reagan thought giddily. I rolled my eyes at her and she laughed. What? I just got back and it's time for hurricane Reagan to return! I couldn't help but laugh. I swear to God, only Regan could turn this situation into a good laugh. She's pretty much the crazier, girl, psychotic version of Bobby.
"Ummm… mind explaining what you to are doing" Felix asked. I looked up at him and smiled.
"Right. I'm partially telepathic and so is Reagan. Except Reagan can produce images to the mind, where as I can do anything in the mind" I explained. Jane and Alec exchanged glances.
"Almost what my sister and I can do" he said "She can create pain in the mind, while I can cut off your senses"
"And what do you mean partially telepathic" Jane asked suspiciously
"What I meant was that I am telepathic but that's not my only ability" I explained "I'm also telekinetic, meaning I can move things with my mind, and I can also copy people's ability and use it as my own"
"Looks like you got a little competition, Jane" Felix smirked and I shook my head.
"I have to be able to read the person's mind to copy the ability" I explained
"So you can't read their minds" Reagan asked
"No. Only Felix's" I explained Professor Xavier believes that because of the barriers in my mind, it limits me from reading everyone's mind and their ability to affect my mind.
Barriers? You've never had barriers before she thought confused
Apparently I always have. Since Jean and Scott are my parents…
WHAT THE HELL! SINCE WHEN?!
Since the day I was born and so is Lec
Wait a sec, what? And who's Lec? I sighed and sent her every single thing that happened as soon as we came to Forks. She gaped at me and shook her head. Well hot damn. Everything happens when I leave doesn't it. I shook my head and chuckled.
"What's up" Emmett asked speaking for the first time. I shook my head and smiled. Somethings were better left in the mind. Then Peter's Land Rover pulled up in the next spot. I hurried up and gave them a quick telepathic overview of what happened.
"Whoa, Bella! Head rush" Bobby said as he hopped out.
"How'd you guys fit in there like that" Emmett asked
"Easy. Peter and Kitts were up front. Bobby, Evan and I were in the backseat. While Pietro and Lec's in the trunk" Rogue explained smiling "Who are you guys"
"It was in the overview" I said
"yeah and like I said before. Head rush" Bobby repeated laughing
"This is Jane, Alec, Demetri, and Felix" Reagan said
"Oh cool" Kitty said "Hey Regan! I didn't know you were coming back" she ran up to her and gave her a hug.
"Uh-oh. Reag's back. Meaning viewer discretion is advised" Pietro said climbing out the trunk.
"Hey! This story is rated M" she said "Isn't it"
"Yeah"
"Think so"
"Uh-huh"
"Okay, so there's no problem. The people who see this story already know its rated M and there will be rated M material sooo…"
"She's got a point" Felix said winking
"Thanks Felix" she said "Now, if you'll excuse me… I must barf repeatedly while I try to erase the image of you winking at me"
"Oh yeah. This is the beginning of a beautiful friendship" Bobby said sarcastically "You can just feel the love radiating from the two of you". I watched as Regan stomped forward and kick Bobby in the balls, then flip him off.
"Yup. So much love" she said walking away from him "Learn from him, Felix. Don't make the same mistake"
"Yes ma'am" he saluted though he looked kind of scared. I stifled back my giggle and looked around the parking lot.
"Bella" I looked up to see Edward in front of me "Bella, I know I owe you an explanation and I am so very sorry-" I caught him off placing my hand over his mouth.
"It's okay. I'm just dealing with something personal, that's all" I said trying not to look at him or Lec. I really couldn't deal with this right now. It was so much to handle in one day.
"Bella. Is there something you're not telling me" he asked cautiously
"No… well yes. I-I just can't tell you. At least not now" I said "Please, Edward, please try to understand". He looked at me torn for a second then smiled.
"Of course Bella" he said kissing y forehead then he pulled me into a hug "Just promise you'll tell me when you're ready"
"I promise" I murmured into his chest. He smoothed my hair back and held me tightly. I don't know what came over me at that moment, but I just wanted to leave. I needed some space, though I can't image why I needed space from Edward. I pulled away from him and he stared at me confused. "I think I'm going to go into the library before class"
"Do you want me to come with you" he asked
"No thanks" I said shaking my head "But I'll see you afterwards" He nodded and smiled at me. "Thank you" He kissed my forehead again. I walked to the library feeling more confused than I ever had before.
