Why You're So Alike
&
Edward smiled at her, then started to tow her downstairs. He would love to meet her mysterious mom. He brought her outside the door, when she stopped to look at the garden.
"Those are so pretty," she sighed, looking at the bright flowers planted in their perfect rows.
Bending down, Edward quickly picked a few. "Close you eyes," he said.
Kelsey obeyed, and relaxed at the gentle tugging of her hair.
"Ok, you can open them," he said. She gently patted her hair, and felt the flowers woven into it. She smiled at him, and he began to tug her away again.
He stopped in front of a large shed, the closest the house, and punched in the code, and the door opened. It revealed a glossy red convertible, top down, with thin, perfect looking legs covered in jeans coming from underneath the jacked-up car.
Kelsey glanced at Edward, surprised to see an annoyed expression on his face. "Rosalie," he said in a flat tone. He walked over to a shelf, and pulled down what looked like an old side-view mirror, handing it to Kelsey.
Has she was looking at her hair, Rosalie scooted out from under the car.
Edward took the mirror from Kelsey. "Kelsey, Rosalie, Rosalie, Kelsey."
Kelsey took the brief break to admire Rosalie. Her cascading blonde hair, pale skin, topaz eyes. Her perfect Sports Illustrated-model-like body. She was perfect, and Kelsey felt the pain of jealousy and doubt.
Seeming to sense her feelings, he added, "She's married to Emmett. He's around here somewhere." Not even waiting for a reaction from either of them, he pulled Kelsey away to a larger shed, further away. This was already open, and next to his silver Volvo was a huge Jeep. And standing next to is was a well-muscled boy with curly dark hair. "Emmett, this is Kelsey," he said, his voice warmer then the one he had just used with Rosalie. Emmett immediately cracked a smile, and said. "Nice to meet you," he said, his voice booming. "I'm sorry, but I must go help my wife. She needs help with her car..." he trailed off, then ran out. Kelsey turned from watching Emmett leave, and turned to see Edward holding the door open to his shiny car.
&
Kelsey couldn't help but smile. She had met Edward's family, and now he was meeting hers. The long winding driveway through the forest seemed even brighter, even though the clouds were thick over head. She didn't even mind the fact the Edward was going way too fast on the thin pavement. She thought things were going in the right direction. Maybe this would be her first serious relationship, with a boy she could hardly imagine was actually here, interested in her. Maybe she could help him get over this girl, to help ease the pain over time.
&
Edward glanced at Kelsey, her eyes a thousand miles away, a beautiful smile on her face. She seemed so easy to make happy. She never complained, and was so giving. Just like Bella had been. The thought of Bella made his mood fade slightly. No one, not even Kelsey, who seemed to actually be Bella, could ever replace her. But it was time to face the facts. Bella was gone. He was never going to see her again. Never see her flushed cheeks, or catch her when she falls. He had to accept this, and try to ease the pain. Kelsey seemed more then willing to help, and he did really like her.
&
Kelsey's confidence was starting to sway. Her mom always acted so weird, especially about boys. Her mom never dated, and she never spoke of her "father". Kelsey didn't know who he was, or what happened. She didn't know if they had been married, or if they had been high school sweet hearts that had gone too far. When Kelsey had mentioned her date, and when she had talked to her mom just now, she sounded so distant, with dread and ancient sadness in her voice. Kelsey's hands clenched into anxious fists. Seeming to sense her wavering confidence and anxiety, Edward gave her her favorite crooked smile. It took her breath away. He laughed quietly to himself, then gently leaned over and gently kissed her cheek. That stopped her heart. She stared, wide eyed at him. He gave her another gentle smile, then turned back to the road, to give her more time to think.
&
Edward had daydreamed countless hours of possible situations of seeing Bella again. In it, he always found her the same, 18-year-old self that he had left her, and they always ended up back together. But now it shifted into another point of view, the realistic one. He would see her, over 30 now, with sadness etched into her face. When she first saw him, pain would be all over her face, and it would be all his fault. He would have to leave then, no matter what he wanted. Even has he thought about it, it was hard. He knew he could never do that, just walk away. He would have to patch things up, and make sure she was OK, before leaving. He could never be with her again, he couldn't cause that pain. He would have to try and be has happy has possible, preferably with Kelsey, who STILL reminded him so much of Bella...
&
Kelsey was freaking out. She was so confident before, but she was starting to crack from anticipation. She reminded him so much of Bella. She had been nervous to introduce him to Charlie. It saddened him to think of Bella. He missed her so much. Her blush, her reactions to everything, her clumsiness, her smell... Maybe that's why he liked Kelsey. She reminded him so much of Bella, and he truly liked her now. They were in front of Kelsey's house now. He walked over to her door and opened it for her. Has she stood up, unstable, he kissed her cheek again. "Don't worry so much," he whispered in here ear. He walked her to the door, his arm around her waist to keep her steady.
"Shoot, I don't have my keys," she muttered, breathlessly.
He smiled, and reached out to ring the door bell. He heard the quiet steps of someone inside the house, coming to the door, and a new smell immerged. A sweet, familiar smell, he smelled every day at home.
A vampire.
He tightened his arm around Kelsey's waist, when the smell became strong enough to pick out a slight flowery smell in the background... freesia. His arm loosened, a confused expression on his face. Her mom was a vampire? The footsteps stopped, and the door opened.
His arm dropped from Kelsey's waist, has he took in the sight before him.
Pale skin.
Dark brown eyes.
Dark brown hair.
Even after the three day transformation, he would recognize her anywhere.
The girl he had fallen hopelessly in love with.
Bella Swan.
THE END!!! Now, this is the end of this story, but of course there will be a sequel. I can't put it under "The New Girl" Because its not just Kelsey anymore!! I will be sure to put the Sequel info up when I have it ready for you!!! Some Questions to be answered:
