Chapter One: A New Beginning
Friday July 20th 2001 Summer
Forks Washington Seattle was covered by a near persistent raincloud this was where my sister and I used to spend two weeks of every summer with our father the Chief of Police Charlie Swan the journey from the airport was in silence as I had plugged in my ipod and was listening to music and resting my eyes as on the flight I had got no sleep, my body relaxed enough that when we arrived at my new home I was jolted awake.
"Welcome home Lilian" Charlie said as he exited his side of the police cruiser then went to the trunk he began to unpack my personal possesions some I carried myself including the portfolio of my modelling career for an online site that I'd created and being a fan of a band I chose the name FreaksLikeMe it was mostly cosplay stuff with an erotic twist. Following my father upstairs and down the passage to a closed door where he paused
"I've had an extension built since you were last here with an added bonus of having your own en-suite bathroom there is also a set of keys one of which is for your new car that is in the garage
"Thank you" I said surprised by the generosity and also curious as to what kind of car I now owned. After Charlie had placed my suitcases down he left quickly, shutting the door behind him, the jet-lag hit me like a ton of bricks and so without undressing I collapsed on the soft bed and was fast asleep.
When I woke the next morning thankfully it was a Saturday I looked around the room and seeing a note on the chest of drawers which made me get out of bed
Lilian,
Sorry to tell you this but work's been a nightmare recently so I'm having to work late
There's money on the kitchen table for take-out tonight.
Bella's away for the weekend so you've got the house to yourself.
Sorry again.
Dad.
I shrugged finding that this bothered me not in the slightest and that it gave me time to explore my new surroundings, stripping off my clothes and entering the en-suite bathroom for a refreshing shower. Drying off an hour later I dressed quickly before leaving the house, opening the garage door and pulling off the cover of a gleaming red Mercedes Benz SL65 AMG Black Edition
"Holy shit" I swore, touched by my father's generosity, rushing back upstairs I grabbed a couple of CD's then sitting in the car I started the V12 engine and sped off in the direction of town stopping outside the hiking store where I knew my sister worked during the summer and how clumsy I knew her to be.
"Hey Bella" I said suppressing my grin as she spun around.
"Lilian" she hissed "I'm working, can you come back later?"
"I can, however I'm in need of directions to La Push as I want to surprise Seth"
"Why, so you can steal him from me?" Bella hissed "Like you've done with every relationship I've ever had"
"First of all dearest sister, I have no romantic interest in Seth, he's like a brother to me so you can just fucking chill out now just give me what I asked for and I'll be out of your hair." Bella wrote down the directions and I was out the door and on my way again.
Cullen Residence
Upstairs in a richly decorated bedroom a young pale skinned, golden eyed woman gasped audibly and a smile spread across her face she began purring
"I found her finally after two hundred years she's here, can't wait for school on Monday"
Clearwater Residence Late Afternoon
As I pulled up outside Seth's house unannounced and knocked on the front door of a modest single storey building, the door itself was opened.
"Hey Seth," I said
"Lily, what, how," my brother in all but blood said
"Surprise," I said "apologies for not giving you a heads up"
"Who is it Seth ?" a familiar voice asked
"Come see for yourself" he replied stepping back as his mother, Sue appeared her eyes widened
"Seth" she reprimanded without any heat "let Lilian in the house"
"Oh right," my best friend said ducking his head sheepishly "please make yourself welcome"
"Thanks" I replied grinning broadly at Seth's obvious embarrassment stepping over the threshold and taking a seat in the solitary armchair.
"What happened, what made you come here 'cause the last time we spoke your parents had split and then we heard nothing from you," Sue asked
"That wasn't my fault" I explained "it was Renee, she tried to control every aspect of my life, that meant monitoring who I saw or spoke to, she even tried to stop me from my modelling career which never happened when she realised the money I was making she demanded a 70/30 split until I had her share returned to me" after a pause I added with a vicious smirk "last I knew she had racked up a serious debt spending money she didn't have"
"Considering what she did to you, I'm not entirely surprised," Sue said and at my stunned expression she elaborated "we all knew, what was going on but couldn't do anything about it and for that, you have our apologies"
"You don't need to apologize for what she did" I replied "but I appreciate it nonetheless" the time flew by and as it got dark I left the house promising to keep in touch and meet again more regularly now that I was back home after parking my car in the garage, in the drive was Bella's truck which made me feel a bit guilty having been given a brand new car but then I remembered all the things she got that I never did when we both lived in Phoenix, upstairs in my room busy listening to music whilst taking a shower I never heard my sister leave to spend the weekend with her boyfriend. Being stuck indoors was never my strongest suit so getting dressed in a black pair of jeans with a scarlet tanktop then a black leather trenchcoat, a pair of flame detailed boots rounded off my attire, having been blessed, or cursed depending on who was asked, with natural beauty to rival even supermodels all I did was add some shadowy mascara and red lipstick before pulling my hair into a ponytail. Leaving the house again I went down to Port Angeles for a few hours, I did consume alcohol but not enough to get me intoxicated, some of the patrons at a club recognized me from my cosplay I'd posted on social media and asked me for autographs and to pose for photos with them which I duly did. By the time I returned home, my father's police cruiser was in the drive and he was sitting in the lounge watching a late-night re-run of a baseball game.
"Hey Dad," I said surprised and concerned
"Are you stealing Bella's boyfriend again ?" he asked, I paused before answering him
"No, Dad Seth is like my brother and for that matter, I'm gay" without waiting for Charlie to reply I went upstairs to bed.
Saturday 21st July 2001 Morning
When I woke up a brilliant smile was on my face then taking care of my morning ablutions then dressing I went downstairs where my father was having breakfast after grabbing myself a bowl of cereal I sat down opposite him.
"Is it true?" Charlie asked
"About what?" I replied thickly
"Your orientation," he said, when I nodded in the affirmative, my father sighed heavily before saying "I accept that it is your choice and you'll always be my daughter no matter what"
"Um, thanks?" I said sounding more like a question than a statement a part of me was still waiting for the switch to flip and my father to beat me senseless like Phil did while Renee egged him on
"Just be careful," Charlie said before he left the house. Not long afterwards I also left and went into town, Drawn to the sound of the waves crashing against the stony shore I parked my car then leaned against the hood losing myself in my thoughts,
"Hey," a curious voice said startling me "who are you? I'm Jessica Stanley"
"I'm Lilian Jasmine Swan" I replied adding seeing her visible confusion "Bella's older sister"
"You're that cosplayer from FreaksLikeMe?" a male's voice suddenly blurted out "Mike Newton" he added hastily
"Yeah, I am" I replied warily as Mike's eyes glanced at my chest before flicking back up to my face.
"Well you're definitely better looking than your sister," Newton said oblivious to the furious expression growing on my face until I lashed out striking the boy across his cheek in a resounding slap, then getting back into my car I sped off leaving Jessica and Mike standing there. Returning home I found myself in my room checking emails and other business-related stuff before going downstairs to get lunch and seeing as I was still alone I went back upstairs and resumed working, only taking occasional breaks to rest my eyes and clear my head.
Late that evening my father returned home from work followed by Bella who hid in her room leaving Charlie and I alone as neither of us felt like cooking take out was ordered then consumed.
Monday 23rd July 2001
Arriving at my new school after parking in the empty lot I waited until students and staff arrived before taking myself to the reception and checking in I was given a timetable with a map of the school but thanks to my eidetic memory that was soon rendered obsolete. Walking into my first English lesson my eyes scanned the room focusing my gaze on the blonde thirty-two-year-old woman who was standing by the whiteboard she swallowed on reflex as she took in her newest student
"Lilian Jasmine Swan reporting for class," I said my voice husky then seeing the name on the desk "Miss Grace"
"Take a seat Swan" she replied indicating the only remaining space that was between two women as I walked up the aisle my hips swaying with a devil may care smirk on the corners of my lips as in the reflection of the window I caught Miss Grace staring at my delectable derrière. The two women stared at my approach the raven-haired pixie gasped barely audibly meanwhile the blonde glared at me before she got up and vanished from the classroom ignoring the calls from the teacher.
"Ignore my sister," the short golden-eyed raven-haired pixie said "I'm Alice," she said introducing herself.
"Lily Swan" I replied shrugging out of my jacket then sat down "pleasure to meet you"
"The pleasure is all mine" Alice muttered under her breath too low for me to hear. Time itself seemed to speed up and before I knew it, lunchtime had arrived, Alice decided to keep me company after finding an empty table in the far corner we sat down to eat or rather I did whilst Alice pretended to.
"Are you on some sort of diet that forbids you from eating ?" I asked as my curiosity got the better of me Alice froze her eyes widened slightly
"How did-?" she asked before cutting herself off.
"Little things mostly, like it's cold enough for me to wear two layers and yet you're just wearing a thin almost translucent shirt that I can see your red lace bra underneath" I answered "your sister seems to hate my guts which is weird in of itself, but that matters little as I have a feeling she'll warm up to me soon enough"
"Rosalie's just overprotective"Alice explained "she's been through some traumatic situations, she's also worried that you're gonna figure out our secret"
"Whatever you think I'm gonna figure out," I said taking a sip of coke, "my lips are sealed." Alice was silent as she thought about what I'd said then she smiled
"Is the Mercedes Benz AMG SL65 V12 Black Edition in the parking lot yours?"
"Yeah that's my baby and a gift from my father the Chief of Police, Charlie Swan"
"It's a nice car but at my house, in the garage is a Ferrari 458 midnight blue, that's my baby," Alice said.
"So why don't you use it then?"
"We try to blend it as much as possible"
"Rosalie must be the owner of a black Audi R8 V10 I assume?" Alice nodded "so much for subtlety." Across the room a group of boys were trying to get my attention eventually I stood up, knowing that Alice was watching, and made my way over to the group of jocks who all produced bits of paper for me to sign when that was done and the ecstatic teens left I returned to the table where a bemused vampire sat.
"What was that all about?" she asked curiously.
"Some of my fans wanted an autograph" I answered then seeing raised eyebrows at my vague reply I elaborated "I'm a professional cosplayer and CEO of a company called Freaks Like Me, there is a site of the same name that I post all my photoshoots on, should you join my site you'll understand why"
"Looks like I have some homework to do when I get home and far more enjoyable than what we're given here," Alice said smiling as she heard me laugh then as I checked my timetable the grin fell off my face and an audible groan slipped out of my math.
"Gym is next" I muttered "time for me to show off my athleticism"
"I'm sure you'll excel at it as you do for everything else," Alice said knowingly "in fact I believe the game of the day is volleyball"
"Yay" was my sarcastic reply with raised arms in mock celebration. Pausing as a sudden thought occurred to me.
"Did you come in my room the night before last ?" I asked Alice hesitated before answering
"Yes I did" she said "I couldn't help myself I've spent two centuries waiting for you Lilian and I-"
"Lily" I corrected, automatically
"Lily" she repeated smiling "I wanted to see if you're as beautiful as I imagined you to be"
"Am I as beautiful as you thought?" my voice soft
"No, you're better" Alice returned her voice equally soft "I'll see you after class?"
"Indeed you will as my car is parked next to your sister's" I replied before bidding Alice goodbye and knowing that she was looking my hips swayed to and fro tantalisingly. Entering the changing room and donning my gym attire which was a black sports bra with matching hot pants that clung to my arse and hung low off my hips. The boys stared as I walked by, the girls all had jealous looks on their faces, pulling my thick black hair into a ponytail I began doing stretches to loosen my muscles as there is nothing worse than having a stiff body the next day, The volleyball coach benched me after my team won three of the six games, I decided to get changed and then leave early as Gym was the last lesson of the day. Leaving the changing rooms I saw Alice walking towards me and my face broke into a grin
"Skiving class, Miss Cullen," I said mock seriously "how naughty"
"Hush, you" she replied the corners of her mouth curved upwards "the same thing could be said" she pointed out gesturing at me her eyes sparkling with mirth
"I'll have you know Alice, that Coach Carter benched me when my team won three of six games, so I decided to leave"
"I had no idea you were so competitive," the shorter woman said "though that might explain so much" gesturing to my athletic frame her eyes darkened momentarily before returning to the usual golden shade.
"Can I be blunt with you ?" Alice asked as we walked out of the school building
"Sure," I said as my heart thudded loudly against the ribcage
"Are you gay?"
"I am and have been since my fifteenth birthday when my best friend's sister Leah kissed me"
A low growl emanated from Alice when she heard that, I smiled slightly
"Jealous much" my voice had a slightly teasing edge and my eyes sparkled with amusement.
"Nobody touches what's mine" Alice replied adding "or at least what will be"
Leaning forward and brushing a lock of hair out of Alice's face I spoke with utter finality
"I'm yours, Alice Brandon Cullen from now until Kingdom Come"
