"You're a billionaire Bella ...you deserve to spoil yourself now and then"
"You've uh grown kiddo"
"Note to self be sure to keep it locked"
"Coming dad!"
Cullen's Manor
Alice jumped up and down excitedly waiting for her siblings to finish the morning routines. Jasper attempted to calm down his hyperactive wife but she pinned him with a glare, so he now had to suffer at her second hand giddiness.
" come on guys we'll be late" she complained, just loud enough so that each vampire could hear in their home. Emmet came lumbering down the stairs first , followed by Edward.
" Alice this is the 35th time we've gone to high school why are you so excited?" Asked Emmet as he grimaced at the big smile on Jaspers face courtesy of the pixies emotions rolling off him.
"We're getting a new student" she paused and looked up to stairs to see her sister walking down, with a frown on her face.
"Yes ... yes we know the chiefs daughter will be making her appearance in Forks" drawled Rosalie with an eye roll " it's not that important Alice" she sighed fixing her bag on her back, it seemed like her words went in one ear and out the other when she spoke to her sister who was an overactive pixie. She heard Edward snicker at her thoughts, narrowing her eyes " stay out of my head eddy" she warned blurring past the rest of her siblings.
"Let's go Emmet! unless you want to sit cramped in a Volvo" she said from the garage and went to her cherry red BMW.
"Coming rose" he said loudly, she ignored Alice talking about the new girl. From everything she's heard from school and her sister she already felt like she knew too much about this girl before even meeting her. She couldn't deny the uncomfortable sensation she felt when she heard the name 'Isabella' she shook away her thoughts as she watched her brother Emmet enter the car.
"So are we going to play a couple again this year?" He asked as she maneuvered her way out of the garage, she drove down the stone pathway easily.
"No" she paused and looked over to him "we don't need the extra attention, especially since they already singling our family out. If we want to blend in with the humans we have remain under the radar and you and me acting like a couple just feeds the gossip" she sighed and pulled onto the road and drove the winding road that lead to Forks high school.
Emmet shrugged he didn't particularly care but Rose was his best friend so he wanted to keep away those lust filled teenage boys. She saved him from dying and he owed her his life so this was the least he could do. Even though she constantly reminded him that her decision was a selfish one, he knew underneath all that ice laid a heart of gold and her mate would be lucky to experience all that love she had to give.
"Yeah I get what you're saying" he said after a while, they drove in a comfortable silence. Arriving at school 7;30 , enough time to grab their schedules and wait for the warning bell to go off. Rosalie pulled her car next to the Volvo, who housed Edward, Alice and Jasper.
"Come on lets go to the office" said Alice excitedly which elicited a groan of discontent all around, she wanted to skip off but jasper held her arm firmly allowing her to walk normal like every other student, who now more uncomfortable with the amount of students filling up the parking lot.
"It's going to be a long year" muttered Rosalie quietly, her siblings couldn't help agree with that statement everyone besides Alice of course who seemed to be on cloud nine or hyped up on crack whichever fit the description.
Bella's home
Bella woke after her alarm, her dad knocked on the door, but she grunted and asked for five more minutes, she wasn't looking forward to starting once again in the middle of the year for the second time around. Yesterday which was Sunday, she drove to port angeles to get her a warmer coat and some boots which she hadn't been able to get when she was in Phoenix. Her mother watching her spending and the weather being what it was would've made the purchases too suspicious. Forks itself barely had decent clothing stores thats why she went to Port angeles. Her father wasn't happy about letting her go alone but acquiesced to her request when he got a call in to work. She managed to get everything she needed for the school year too.
Now here she was staring at the ceiling at 7:20am willing herself to get up, she didn't to see the Cullens this early but also reminded herself to not make decisions because she was sure Alice predicted or 'saw' her arrival via her gift.
"Let's go Bella" she said to herself and finally managed to roll out of her comfy, warm bed. Her feet hit the cold floor and she held back a shudder at the feeling. She shuffled to the bathroom after taking out her outfit for the day.
After a quick warm shower she quickly dressed herself , making sure to tuck in her goods below her waist. She pulled on the compression shorts which would hide any noticeable bulge. 'No need to make a scene on the first day', she thought in amusement. She put on a faded blue skinny jeans, coupled with a vest and long sleeve white shirt, that had three buttons on top It didn't reveal much. She pulled on some wooly ankle socks and put on her black combat boots. She gave herself a once over in the mirror and nodded. She grabbed her hooded leather jacket throwing it on to complete her look, she ran her fingers through her hair fluffing it in the process. Her fashion sense had definitely improved since the first time around. She realized that looking good and feeling good went hand in hand so yes she might've splurged on clothing.
She looked to the clock and it showed that it was 7:30am she couldn't grab breakfast but a granola bar should be okay, then a nice lunch should do the trick. She ran down the stairs skipped the last two landing with a thud. The house was empty, her father had already left considering the note plastered onto the fridge.
"Bells have a good day, lunch money is in the table and your papers are in the Manila folder next to it.
Love dad"
She smiled at the note, and grabbed the money and folder, she took a granola bar and headed for the door making sure to grab her keys.
She stepped outside and made sure to lock up the house securely, she smiled at the sight of her car in the drive way her father must've taken off the tarp before going in to work " thanks dad" she said before opening up the drivers seat door , she put her backpack on the passengers seat.
Her car was somewhat modernized in terms of the car radio, alarm system and central locking system. Which she could definitely appreciate. She put the key in the ignition and started her baby up with a grin.
"Ooh yes you sound so good baby" she cooed patting the dashboard lovingly.
" now let's go to hell okay" she said and backed out of the driveway , making her way to Forks high school. She drove down the familiar roads, she spotted the huge sign. 'Home of the Spartans' she sighed inwardly. She made good time and had about 15 minutes to grab her schedule and make her way to the first class.
She spotted the Cullens cars, she saw the Volvo and let out and involuntary pulse of magic, harmless really and anyone who didn't know of magic wouldn't be able to identify it. She inhaled a deep breath centering herself, her eyes closed as she evened out her breathing.
"Let's get this over with" she said to herself, she switched off the car, there was still a few students milling about the parking lot, they gawked at the car and even more so when she exited the vehicle. She didn't pay much attention and nearly ran into Eric after exiting the office with her schedule and map in hand.

"You must be Isabella Swan, chiefs long lost daughter moved from Phoenix to dreary old forks and you baby are front page news" he said quickly without taking a breath, Bella didn't know whether to be impressed or annoyed and the boys exuberance.She settled with being polite as much as one could be with a camera pointing directly in your face. He was shorter than her so she had to look down and smiled but the smile came off as a grimace instead.
"Yes I'm Bella, but please no pictures I'm sure people know more about me already than I care to share" she said letting the boy down, who know dropped the camera in his hand and let it swing loosely around his neck, his face flickered through emotions quickly but his beaming smile came back.
" well bella" he tested with a grin " I'm the eyes and ears of this place, so if you need me to show you around don't hesitate to ask"
"Sure uhm I'll take you up on that, I have English first with Mr mason" she asked , though she knew where the class was but Eric was so helpful she decided to throw him a bone, besides he always was persistent she mused with chuckle. The boy looked positively ecstatic, that he was allowed to ' escort' her to class.
The walked in a comfortable silence, he probably felt like he didn't want to overwhelm her, Bella herself was perfectly content with it and didn't make a move to talk either. He stopped and pointed out that they reached her class.
" Thank you Eric" she smiled " I would've been lost without you" she said somewhat sarcastically but the boy took it as a compliment and flushed, scratching his head with grin
"No problem Bella, if you'd like you can sit with my friends at lunch?" He left the question hanging, she gave him a short nod.
"Sure, see you later" she said with a small wave and entered the class. She saw Mr Mason stack some papers on his desk. She walked over and told the man that she was the new student, thankfully he didn't make her introduce herself like a 5year old instead he gestured her to find an empty seat. She put her bag down and grabbed a notebook and pen, the last bell sounded.
A few late students shuffled hurriedly into the class room before the door was shut and Mr mason started going over whatever they were learning.
The rest of her classes passed in a blur, she managed to get some notes from the teachers on anything she might've missed, but everything was basically the same from her school in Phoenix, so she didn't worry about catching up.
She met Jessica briefly, Angela was a welcome sight, and immediately liked the girl. Yes even in the previous timeline she appreciated the girls quiet sarcasm and dry humor after all it she was the one who was least judgmental or actually the only one who wasn't judgmental . Eric was nice enough, Mike wanted to get into her pants last time around, Lauren was a plain bitch and Jessica was your common preppy high schooler that grated on her nerves. The conversations was dull but with Angela she could enjoy a pleasant conversation about anything without forcing it.
Within the last five months before she moved to Forks, she started getting into more modern things, not just sticking her nose in a book at every opportunity. She got hands on with the multiple business her family was invested in and had in-depth talks with Matthew about it. She checked the books to make sure things ran smoothly, she didn't know why but her brain seemed to have evolved somehow granting her an eidetic memory which was a major improvement to her especially when dealing with so many ledgers at once.
Of course it wasn't all that, she continued her physical regiment, even signed up for a quick self defense classes and yoga that worked wonders for both her self esteem and confidence. Renee didn't know this Of course and assumed she was working at the convenience store when she was out of the house for hours at a time.
Her magic was stabilized and barely fluctuated, but she barely used the spells too. The books of light and darkness had lots of information on most supernatural creatures that lingered throughout the world. Magic itself or witches and warlocks had dwindled in size, the lines often becoming too diluted. This wasn't a problem with the Swans even though since her four times great grandmother every other child after up till her father was male and thus couldn't inherit the mantle so to speak, so when she was born it changed the way total game-changer . Her changes was was going to come regardless and the addition added to carry on the swan line but she died before her ancestor could make proper contact with her which lead us to today.
Bella stepped through the cafeteria doors with Angela at her side, who directed her to the line they needed to stand in to get food.
"You should go with the salad and pizza, the meatloaf is terrible" whispered Angela near her ear, soft enough to make sure the cooks hadn't heard.
Bella giggled and nodded her head " sure I'll take your advice oh wise one" she said in a sagely voice, and felt a soft punch to her arm at the comment.
She loaded her tray with a garden salad, an apple, two slices of reheated pizza and grabbed a bottle of water. She paid for her meal and patiently waited for Angela to finish hers.
"Come on, we're over there" she pointed out to the group who now had, Jessica, Eric, Ben and Mike seated at the table. Eric who was waving wildly at them, she could barely hold back a laugh at the boys exuberance.
"Is he always like that?" Asked Bella as they made their way over to the group.
"Who? Eric?" Angela rolled her eyes " you're new so this is him trying to make a good impression" she said shaking her head at her friends actions.
"And a good impression constitutes him nearly waving off his arm?" She asked with brow raised, before Angela could reply Eric bounded over to them with a big smile plastered on his face.
"I see you've met my good friend Angie" he said with a grin, emphasizing 'good friend', Angela just walked past him and took a seat at the table. Bella followed her example and gave Eric a simple nod, she was much too hungry to continue or throw Eric another bone.
"Guys this is Isabella but she prefers Bella" he said pointing to Bella who was now sitting opposite Angela.
" and Bella this is my crew" he smirked " that is Jessica, over there is Ben Cheney and that bleached blonde" he said with narrowed eyes pointing to Mike who practically leered at Bella. " is mike" he finished
"Nice to meet all of you" she said before digging into her salad.
"So I hear you're from Arizona" said Mike to Bella who seemed invested in her salad.Bella finished chewing before answering.
"Yeah Phoenix"
"But you're so pale, isn't it like always sunny there" interjected Jessica with a nasally voice.
Bella rolled her eyes internally " must be why they kicked me out then" she joked with a sarcastic smile.
Angela giggled, pushing up her glass before continuing to eat her meal.
Jessica who now had the sarcasm go right over her head was about to interject once more before the cafeteria doors swung open, and the noise in the cafeteria went notably down.
" look it's the resident Kardashians" commented Jessica dryly, Bella who finished her salad and now moved over to her pizza, gazed over to where Jessica was pointing and sure enough, the Cullens glided across the cafeteria floors like they owned it.
Bella played her part and swallowed her mouthful of pizza, followed by a bit of water, she cleared her throat, and raised an eyebrow.
"Who are they?" She questioned, trying to sound interested and curious in the local super models.
Jessica who seemed happy to spill the details on the local gods and goddesses clapped her hands and started her report with utter seriousness like a newscaster reporting on a hurricane.
"They're Dr Cullen and Mrs Cullens adopted children, apparently the Mrs wasn't able to have kids and decided to adopt some teenagers in need of a home.
The short girl with the black hair pointing in every direction is Alice Cullen, the boy who's hand she's holding is Jasper Hale her boyfriend he always looks like he's in pain or something..." she whispered the last part, trying to emphasize the scandalous behavior " The tall buff guy who looks like he should be playing football for a college team or something is Emmet Cullen,the tall blonde beside him is Rosalie Hale, ice queen and hates everyone besides her siblings" she said with a bit of anger.
Bella nodded and held back her amusement, she didn't look at the Cullens as Jessica pointed them out, she enjoyed their introductions much more especially the look on Jessica's face as she pointed them out.
"Anyways the last one, who looks like his brooding is Edward Cullen" she said in a dreamy sigh. Bella held back a snort of amusement " but I wouldn't try anything he thinks every girl is too good for him"
Bella chuckled " oh trust me I won't, I don't particularly like guys who broods, and even worse with a god complex" She shrugged continuing her meal "That's how every girl dies in every horror movie ever" she said jokingly.
Mike barked out a laugh at the comment " see Jess not everyone thinks the Cullens are gorgeous"
Bella scoffed amused " I didn't say that, they are attractive but if I was interested in one of them it would be the tall blonde, Ms Hale was it?" She confirmed with a nod to herself and looked across the cafeteria catching Rosalie's eye " Definitely been sculpted by Aphrodite herself" she said with a sincere smile, she saw the flicker of surprise in Rosalie's face but turned to face her table mates who watched her with their mouths open.
"But she's the ice queen" spluttered Mike
Bella shrugged and drank some water and smirked at the boy "The cold doesn't bother me anyway" she quoted frozen.
Jessica who had a delayed reaction now watched her wide eyes " you like women?" She asked with a gasp.
Bella rolled her eyes "oh I didn't tell you?" She asked innocently
"I'm extremely gay"
