Chapter 21: Impossibilities
BPOV
Edward's lips were millimeters away from mine when his cell-phone suddenly went off. Edward and I groaned in unison.
Ugh, stupid person, whoever you are! You had to call right now! Curse whoever is calling right now! I screamed in my head, feeling very frustrated that Edward and I had gotten interrupted just before we were about to kiss, again!
Edward let the cell ring for a while until he finally picked it up after four rings. He looked really exasperated to me.
"WHAT?" he growled harshly.
The person on the other line said something that I couldn't make out.
"Alice, cant you just leave us alone?" Edward cried, hanging up the phone.
Of course it was Alice, who else could it be?
"Sorry, that was Alice." he apologized.
"Yeah, I figured." I replied, feeling very angry at Alice.
"Um…so…" Edward started.
"Edward, can you take me to your house, I need to have a little talk with the girls." I asked sweetly.
"Of course." Edward replied, an impish grin on his face. "So, what are you going to do?"
"Well… I just need to have a little talk with a certain pixie." I answered, still talking in a sweet voice.
We arrived at the Cullen house in ten minutes. Edward got out and opened my side of the door in a blink of an eye.
How in the world did he do that?
"Edward, how did you do that?" I asked him in surprise.
"Super-speed." he answered, flashing me a huge grin.
I figured, he is a vampire after all.
Before we could even reach the porch, Alice came bouncing out of the house cheerfully.
"Oh Bella, I'm so happy!" she squealed.
"Oh Alice, shut up and get to Liza's room, NOW!" I cried, putting in as much venom into my voice as I could muster.
I grabbed Alice's arm and dragged her to Liza's room. I shut the door after all the girls got in.
"Alice, you are so mean!" I whined.
"How am I mean? I didn't do anything." she asked innocently.
"Oh shut up Alice, Edward was about to kiss me but you had to ruin it. First it was Liza and now you. Alice, couldn't you just wait a couple more minutes before you called?" I muttered angrily.
"Oh Bella, I swear I didn't know, I wouldn't have called at all if I knew what was going on." she defended herself.
"What's good to have a psychic who has some defects." I replied harshly.
"Oh shut up Bella, now tell us, how did you figure it out?" Alice chirped.
"It was the book I bought from the book store in Seattle yesterday." I answered matter-of-factly.
"Oh, was it about vampires?" Rosalie asked.
"No, it was about the Quileute legends. One of the legends talked about the cold ones with the strange, golden eyes." I replied, shaking my head no.
"Oh, so the strange golden eyes gave us away, huh?" Liza smirked.
"Yup!" I replied happily.
"Yay she finally got it, didn't I tell you guys she will figure it out sooner or later." Liza said.
I suddenly noticed something on Liza's neck; it looked remarkably like a necklace that I had given Izzy on our 13th birthday. It was the black side of a yin-yang necklace; I had the white side.
How could I have not noticed that before? How naïve could I get? Liza is Izzy!
"Izzy?" I whispered, looking at Liza in wonder.
Liza froze right were she was standing; she was as still as a statue
"Izzy, oh Izzy, you were right under my nose." I cried, running over to her.
This felt like a repeat of the first day of school.
I hugged her tightly, not wanting to let go. I suddenly smacked her arms in anger, and boy did it hurt.
"Ow…ow…ow…" I cried, jumping up and down, holding my hand in pain.
"Bella, are you okay?" Rosalie asked worriedly.
"Izzy how could you? How could you not tell me? I'm your freakin' sister…how could you not tell me? I thought we could tell each other anything." I cried, ignoring Rosalie.
I felt tears start to stream down my face.
"Bella, you don't know how much I wanted to tell you everything, but I couldn't break the rules. It hurt so much knowing that my sister was here with me and not being able to tell her who I was. You don't know how it killed me inside that I hurt you so much. My dead heart ached to tell you Bella, Bella, it's me, your Izzy, I'm your Izzy; I'm not dead. I'm here sweetie, I'm aright. I wanted to say that the first time you came up to me, but I couldn't. " she choked out.
"Oh Izzy, oh sweetie, its okay, I know now. We're together, nothing will separate us again." I mumbled in between my sobs.
"Bella, let's go to your place so we can talk without any eavesdroppers." Rosalie said suddenly, flashing me a weak smile.
"What did you mean by eavesdroppers?" I asked cautiously.
"Well, we vampires have super sensitive hearing." Alice stated matter-of-factly, as if she were talking about the weather.
Oh god, did she just say super sensitive hearing? That means that everyone heard us. That means Edward heard me saying that I wanted him to kiss me. Oh god, oh god no, this isn't happening, please somebody tell me that I'm dreaming!.
"Let's go." I whispered.
I could feel my face flushing in embarrassment.
The girls laughed in amusement but surrounded me in a tight circle so that as we were going down the stairs, no one could see me. I thanked the girls silently in my head; I would be saved from further embarrassment, for now.
We left the house without talking to anyone. I did everything in my will power to not pick my eyes up from where they were staring at the floor to glance around the house for Edward.
We hurriedly got into Liza's car and drove away. We arrived at my house in less than two minutes. For once I was grateful for Liza's reckless driving.
We got out of the car and slowly walked into the house. It was around five so I trudged over to the kitchen to start something for dinner.
"We can talk while I cook something for Charlie." I told them.
"Okay." Liza replied softly.
I think I'll call her Liza, it suits her better.
"So Liza, tell me how it all happened." I asked quietly.
"Okay, after I left the theater I went to the snack stand to get myself some popcorn like I said I would. There was no one there so I went around looking for someone. My eyes fell on this beautiful guy. I couldn't stop staring at him and then my phone rang. I picked it up and it was Jordan. Remember him from chemistry class?" she started.
"Yes, how can I not forget? He was the one that burned half the chemistry lab down." I giggled.
"Yeah, so he called, he was saying something but I couldn't comprehend what he was saying. The strange, gorgeous guy was looking at me, and you know how I am when it comes to guys?" she asked.
"Of course, you are always in ones' face." I smirked slyly.
"Oh shut up Bella." she growled, smiling to show me that she was just kidding.
"Well, it felt strange; it felt like I was tied up in a rope and was being pulled towards him. He smirked at me and said hello. I said hello back and then the next thing I know is that we were outside. I couldn't see anything else but him. I didn't even know I dropped the cell." she shuddered suddenly.
"Come for a walk with me, he told me. I took his offer and we walked and walked. I didn't know where we were or what time it was. All I knew was I was with him in a dark room and that's all that mattered right then. We were a foot away from each other. He was walking towards me slowly with a smirk on his face. He said that I was the most beautiful person he ever saw and that he was watching me for a while. He said that he loved me and my stupid ass believed the stranger. He bent down and kissed my lips and then my jaws and then went down to my neck. He lingered there and then the next thing I know is there was a sharp pain in my neck." Liza started to shake in anger.
I walked over to her and held her in my arms.
"It's okay, you don't have to finish if it's too painful to say." I told her.
"No, I want to tell you, I want you to understand." she replied quietly.
She took a deep breath before going on.
"After he bit me, a fire started to flow through my veins. It felt like I was going to burn inside out. I couldn't take it; I was wishing that I was dead. I begged him to kill me. As the time went by, the fire intensified, I was screaming and crying. Your face, mom's face and dad's face swam around in my head. I was scared of losing you guys; you guys meant everything to me. I couldn't stop thinking about you. I was thinking what you were doing then; I was wondering if you were looking for me, did you notice I was gone? Did you call the police? Did you tell mom? How were you handling it with me not being there by your side?"
"The fire lasted for about three days. It ended and I thought I was in heaven. I heard so many different things with my ears. I felt strange and different. I didn't feel like myself. I felt like I was stronger, I felt like I could run a mile right then and there. I slowly opened my eyes and I saw so many different things with my new eyes. Every particle of dust, every increment of fiber on the wall, every single thread in the feathery canopy bed. I heard someone else breathing so I turned my head and I saw him. He was there sitting on a chair, smiling at me."
"Hello beautiful, he said. Who are you and what did you do to me? I asked, he told me that he changed me into a vampire and about how blood was my food from now on. I was so angry at him that I jumped on him and ripped him to shreds. It felt so good that he was dead. But then I noticed that his leg was trying to reattach itself to his feet. I was horrified that I burned the body along with the house. I knew that I couldn't go back to you guys because I didn't know if I could have handled myself because of the blood so I headed up north to the forest, trying to get away from humans. There was a deer strolling in front of me and I couldn't take it, the aroma of the deer's blood was coursing through its body and I lunged at it. Tasting the sweet blood in me ended my cravings. So I figured out how to survive without human blood. I ran farther up north, and Bella, you don't know how wonderful it felt, running so fast; it was exhilarating. I was running and running not knowing, where I was."
"I figured out that I could hold my breath as long as I wanted but I didn't do it often because it felt really uncomfortable. Anyways, I also figured out that I could swim really fast; I swam up north and then I stopped at Washington. I didn't know I was in Washington until I ran into the Cullens. They seemed like they were expecting me. I was in the forest hunting when I ran into them. Carlisle came up to me and told me that it was okay and that he wouldn't hurt me, they took me to there home and they told me that I could live with them… and when days went by I figured out my power, which is that I can make people see me as someone else instead of who I really am. Anyways, I became a member of the Cullen family, they were wonderful people and I was close by to watch over Charlie." she finished.
I was in shock because of all the things that my sister had gone through. I was also relieved that I had finally figured out a reason to that horrible pain that I had felt those three days after my sister had gone missing. I guess its the twin thing.
I got up from where I was sitting and hugged my vampire, my twin sister. I then went to Alice and Rosalie and hugged them both tightly.
"Thank you for taking care of my sister when I couldn't!" I cried, sobbing quietly.
"Oh, it was nothing!" Alice squealed.
"Okay, now can you please tell me why your eye color is golden?" I begged.
"Oh Bella!" Rosalie laughed.
"Hey, I'm still curious. That is something that I still didn't figure out." I replied.
"Well, since we only drink animal blood, our eye color changed to gold instead of ruby red. When you drink human blood, your eye color will be red. Your eyes will also be red if you are a newborn." Liza explained.
"Oh cool, so tell me more about vampires." I asked.
"We will, but first I have to ask you something." Alice asked me.
"Okay, shoot." I told her.
"Alright, tomorrow you are going to the Spring Fling dance with us." Alice said matter-of-factly, not really asking but ordering.
"Oh hecky no! I don't dance, ask Liza." I cried, horrified at the thought of being forced to go to a dance.
"We are not taking no for an answer, you will come and that's that. I already asked Charlie and he said that it was okay. And if you complain at all, I will come and drag you to the dance and don't say I won't because you know for a fact that I will." Alice declared.
Gosh why do they like torturing the human? I guess, I don't have any choice.
"Why do you like to torture the fragile human?" I asked, flashing them my puppy dog look.
"Oh Bella, that face may work on Emmett, Jasper and Edward, but that will never work on us." Rosalie smirked.
"A girl has to try." I answered.
"Okay, what time is the dance and how come I don't know about it?" I asked curiously, after a few minutes of silence.
I really didn't know that there was going to be a dance.
"Bella, you don't look at the things you don't want to see." Liza stated.
"The dance is at five after school." Rosalie answered.
"Okay. I only need half an hour to get ready." I replied.
"Huh Bella, you are very funny. How can you get ready in less then an hour? Tomorrow we are not gong to school, the guys are, but we girls aren't. And don't look at me like that, I got it all cleared out with Charlie and he said okay. I mean, it's okay for you to skip school for one day." Alice declared.
"What?!? Charlie, my police officer dad, said that it's okay for me to skip class? You have got to be kidding me." I cried, dumbfounded.
"Yup." Alice replied, popping the p.
"Ugh, what have I gotten myself into?" I muttered under my breath.
"You got yourself into an all girls' day where we find the perfect dress, do our make-up and hair, get a manicure and lots more." Rosalie answered.
"Liza! Izzy! You're going to let them to that to me? You know how I hate dressing up." I complained.
"Uh-huh." Liza replied, smiling slyly.
Ugh, tomorrow was going to be a long day.
