OK kids here's the new chapter. Sorry about the last one, I forgot to put the disclaimer in.

I don't own any of the characters or story from the world of Twilight by Stephanie Meyer.

I hope you all enjoy this chapter, and thanks for all the great reviews!

Quileutes

Bella:

"La Push beach this weekend, you girls in?" This was Eric Yorkie. He was one of the boys at school trying to get me to date him, you know the sort, kind of nerdy, a little pimply. He seemed nice, but was this really the best I could do? I may as well be back in Phoenix.

"What's going on at La Push?" Rosalie asked.

"A party with some of the kids from the rez." Lauren answered in a giggly voice. It seemed a little forced. I didn't care for this girl very much, but it didn't matter, I don't think she cares for me either.

"Maybe not this time." I answered, but Rosalie had other ideas.

"No, I think we'll go, what time, where and should we bring anything?" She asked, while Alice and I looked at each other dumbfounded.

"Excellent! There's some surfing if that's your thing. We plan to barbeque and make s'mores by the bonfire." Eric was so excited.

"Why a bonfire?" this was Alice.

"You'll see when see when we get there." Tyler said speaking up.

"Can we bring dates?" Jessica asked, I couldn't help but notice that she kept glancing over at the Cullen's table.

"Sure, why not." Mike answered staring at me and I pretended to be interested in my cheese pizza. Mike was just about to ask me out when the bell sounded and everyone was confused because lunch wasn't nearly over. I glanced at Rosalie and she winked. Great, I sped out of the cafeteria before Mike could notice I was gone. As I rushed out of the cafeteria, I couldn't help but notice the Cullens looking at me. It amazed me how blank their expressions could be, I honestly had no idea what was going on in their heads.

I spent the rest of the lunch period hiding in the library, because I knew Mike would never follow me here. I think Mike was allergic to books, which served my purpose just fine. I grabbed a few classics to sort of breeze through just to kill time. I would need it before facing Edward Cullen in Biology.

Alice:

"I know you think going to La Push will help Bella, but what if our secret comes out. She hasn't learned to control her powers enough. As soon as she smells the water, she'll want to change, especially after she's already had one successful change." I said to Rosalie. We were in a private corner of school having a heated discussion about the party at La Push. Rose felt that we should go, I disagreed.

"Look, I suggest we go early, let Bella get wet and change, then dry off and go to the party. I think Bella has more self control then we think."

"Okay, but we have to be careful. I think we should talk to Charlie about going to the rez, I mean I think the Quileutes know about the mermaids."

"Alright Alice, spill. What did you see." It was a statement.

"The Quileutes know we're mermaids" Rose looked angry and exasperated all at once.

"How long have they known?"

"Since our great great grandmother saved one of the Black men of the Quileutes. Everything got lost in the records, but she saved him and he told anyone that would listen about the lady fish that saved him. The tribe just thought it was one of his stories for years, until Ephraim Black was born and our grandmother ended up saving him during a terrible storm on the water. Then your mother saved Billy Black, unfortunately she wasn't able to keep him from getting hurt." I was saved by the bell.

"Off to class!"

"Wait Alice, what happened?"

"Ask your mother." I couldn't tell Rosalie this one, she had to have this out with her mom.

I was heading to class when I saw Lauren Mallory ask Emmett Cullen to the party, I was amazed to hear him say yes. With all my insight to the future, I didn't see this coming. What a strange turn of events! I quickly rushed to the nurse's office, and faked a headache. There were a few cots and I was offered one to lie down on, I needed some time to see my visions. I saw Rosalie still ended up with Emmett, the vision was stronger than the previous ones. I didn't get that, especially since Emmett just agreed to go out with Lauren. I searched my own vision and saw that I would still end up with Jasper, I guess no matter how hard I tried, I wasn't going to be able to hold him off forever. I just couldn't see how we would hook up. Then I searched Bella's future and again, she would still be with Edward, it was solidified.

I soon found that I fell asleep, because the nurse gently shook me awake after the last bell. I met Rosalie and Bella by our cars, and before I could say anything, I noticed Lauren was talking to Emmett by his Jeep, I glanced over at Rosalie and was shocked. Her face was sheet white with anger and dare I say jealousy.

"I thought you didn't like Emmett?" I asked confused.

"You don't know anything!" she hissed, Bella just shrugged. We then went to our cars to go home, but not before we watched Rosalie glare at Emmett and then fly out of the parking lot. I don't think he even noticed her.

Bella:

I had to admit, I was a little sorry for Rosalie. It was obvious she liked Emmett from the beginning, but she wasn't ready for a relationship. It sure didn't take Emmett much time to land on another girl. If it weren't for his reputation, then I would have been surprised at his choice. Seriously, Lauren Mallory?! I didn't think he had it in him. I watched as Rosalie peeled out of the parking lot, and I watched Lauren squeal in delight over having a date with Emmett Cullen. I'd like to see Edward try something like that! Okay, that was weird. I'll just push that thought away to be examined later.

"Bella?" Alice said, waving a hand in front of my face.

"What?" I was startled to see Alice staring at me strangely.

"Are you alright?"

"Yeah, why wouldn't I be alright?"

"You didn't see the look on your face. Why are you upset with Emmett? Rosalie blew her chance, she slapped his face." Alice said giggling.

"I thought you said that they would end up together?" I was confused.

"Well at the moment they aren't going to get together, and its fun to see Rosalie's feathers ruffled, it's good for her. Besides, I hate to sound so shallow, but what is Lauren to Rosalie?"

"I think I understand what you mean. So when are you going to give Jasper a chance to talk to you?" I had to get Alice's attention off Rosalie, because sooner or later that attention would turn to me, and I didn't want Alice picking my brain like a psychotherapist.

"I don't know, but something has already happened to solidify all the visions I have seen about us. You will be with Edward, I will be with Jasper and Rosalie will be with Emmett. It's stronger than ever now, and I can't even tell you why or how, but there have been some decisions made in order for it to be this sure."

"Alice, guys like Edward Cullen don't date girls like me." Oh man, I think I just said too much. I saw Alice's head turn in slow motion toward me. She had a very interesting look on her face.

"Bella, don't tell me you like Edward."

"I never said that, I said guys like him don't date girls like me. Guys like Edward date girls with double D tits and an IQ of 65, they don't date girls that wear their father's plaid hunting jacket to school, or girls that trip over imaginary cracks in the sidewalk."

"Don't be too quick to judge people, they will and often surprise you.'

"Plus I don't want a boyfriend." Alice just rolled her eyes at this statement. We were just about to get in our cars when Edward walked out into the parking lot. He seemed to be in a hurry, he was almost to his Volvo when;

"Hey Edward, wait up!" This was Jessica Stanley, I really didn't like this girl.

"Yes." Edward said politely.

"So, there's this party at La Push beach, and I sort of wandered if you would like to go with me?" Was it me, or did Jessica sound a little breathless. Edward was quiet for what seemed like and eternity.

"Ok, what time should I pick you up?" I couldn't believe it and clearly Jessica didn't either, because she sputtered her reply.

"Oh! Uh, um, 3pm Saturday. We have to get down there early in order to get things ready for the barbecue. There'll be some surfing and a bonfire." Jessica prattled on and on with Edward. I noticed Alice looking at me in shock.

"So much for your visions!" I knew it was mean to say but I didn't care. I got in my car and drove away. I don't know why I was so upset, but it just figures, some things don't change. At least this time I had Alice and Rose with me, instead of being all alone dealing with this. I decided to go to Newton's camping store in order to get my schedule for work. I need some time alone.

Rosalie:

I didn't want to think about Emmett Cullen, so instead I attacked the cookie dough ice cream. I officially hated men! Why did they behave this way! I settled down on the couch and turn on the t.v. to watch reruns of America's Next Top Model. As I just stared at the flatscreen without really knowing what was going on, I remembered some of the conversation I had with Alice earlier today. I picked up the phone and made my call.

"Hello."

"Mom, hi!" I truly missed my mother, but I had to know something.

"You want to come home already, honey?"

"No, but I have something to ask you." I was now nervous, I don't think mom would want me to bring this up, but I had to know.

"Yes, what is it Rose?"

"What happened with you and Billy Black?" there was absolute silence on the other end of the phone.

"Did you meet him?" Her voice was breathless, and almost panicked.

"Not yet, but…" that's as far as I got.

"Rose I can't do this right now."

"Mom, please, what happened when you saved him?" but all I got was a dial tone. I was stunned, my mother had never hung up on me in my entire life. I was now determined to find out what happened between my mother and Billy Black. Uncle Charlie walked in just after my phone call with mom.

Charlie:

The girls seemed to be settling in just fine, and school didn't seem to be a bother. They were so interesting to watch. Alice was definitely the fashion plate, and Rosalie had to be the prettiest girl at Forks High, at least that's why all the boys were saying in town. They were careful what was said around me, but I pretty much got the picture, and then there was Bella. Still grown up and shy, and now a fledgling mermaid, I hope Rose and Alice could help her.

"Hi Charlie!" Rosalie was all smiles.

"Hey, where are the others?"

"Alice is on her way home and Bella I think went over to the Newton's supply store, to copy her work schedule." I was relieved, the girls had been her several weeks and so far had been settling in nicely.

"I'm home!" Alice announced.

"Good for you." Rosalie appeared to be upset with Alice.

"Come on Rose, everything will be all right. Besides we have to start selecting outfits to wear to the la Push party." I froze instantly.

"La Push party?" I asked, I sipped my coffee to disguise my nerves.

"Yeah, some of the kids at school are meeting up with some of the kids on the reservation." Alice trilled.

"Maybe you girls should skip this party." Alice looked at me in surprise, and Rosalie just stared.

"But Charlie, this will give us a chance to mix in more with the school kids." Alice said.

"Yeah, and we need to engage in normal activities." Rosalie added.

"But what about Bella, she's a neophyte mermaid, what if she compromises us?" I had to remind them of this.

"We have it covered, we'll take her down to the beach really really early and let her change and play around in the water for a while. Then right before everyone shows up, we get out the water and change into our clothes. I even know what the fishing shack is." Alice finshed.

"I don't want to know how you know, but I'm not keen on this. Plus the Quileutes know about us, well at least some of them do, the others just think we're part of Forks legend." I needed them to understand the risks.

"Charlie, please." Rosalie pleaded. I was surprised at Rosalie's interest, but if it would get her into a more normal life, I wasn't going to fight it. I just worried about Bella.

"We will be really careful, I promise!" Alice cried. Bella walked in then.

"Hi dad. Alice can I talk to you upstairs?" Bella looked a little murderous, I didn't want to know. Alice and Bella went upstairs

"I'll go referee." Rosalie answered and followed them up. I waited until all the girls were upstairs and I grabbed the phone. I needed to warn the reservation.

"Hello?"

"Hi Billy, its Charlie. Listen, I understand there's going to be a party this weekend?"

"Yeah, the kids are all excited." Billy seemed happy himself.

"Great, I just want you and the others that know the keep an eye on a few people." The other end of the receiver was suspiciously quiet.

"Billy?"

"Yeah. Who am I babysitting this time?"

"Rosalie, Alice and Bella." I held my breath.

"All three are here?! When, and how? Never mind, we'll discuss this later. I'll talk to the other families and go from there. Don't worry Charlie, they'll be safe." I breathed a sigh of relief, because one, I wouldn't have to go to this party, and two, I knew Billy would keep the girls and our secret safe. I was the one of only two surviving male Swans. I had a distant cousin, and he was a merman like me, but his wife left once she found out their children were merpeople. If everything went according to plan, then it wouldn't take the girls too long to find mates.
