Chapter 1
Getting back to Forks.
Amelia's POV
It was around two in the afternoon when mom dragged me around all the shops that were on the airport of Jacksonville. Phil silently followed us through the stores and nodded to my mother Renee from time to time. He was very used to my mother shopping around and this was the time to shop tax free so she was sure to be early enought to not miss our flight to Forks. It would be a special visit to the town this time. Not only she has not been there since she was around 9 years old, when I visited my dad there in the vacations, it was also close to the day where my sister was going to get married to Edward Cullen.
Thinking back on how Bella had called me so very excited to tell me Edward had proposed to her and that she was going to marry him. Of course she said yes eventually to him. She had been telling me everything that was going on in Forks and every spilled secret that was hanging there. She and I knew I wasn't really allowed to but Bella needed someone to talk to that was not as supernatural as her surroundings were. If I believed her? Absolutely. Why you think I helped her to find out exactly what Edward was? I may have been all the way in Jacksonville with my mom and stepdad, but I sure didn't miss out on my sisters events. She and I were bond together like crazy, maybe as much as we had missed each other.
Renee's hand was pulling mine over to the cafeteria close by the gate we had to board within an hour. I don't know how mom managed to get all the tax free stuff in her bag, but she did it. Phil was getting me a coffee because I knew there wasn't going to be much sleep for me any time soon. I never slept in an airplane and we would arrive at night to go find Charlie and Bella later in the day. I didn't knew how the plane was fighting, but I knew that is was going to land a few times before we could reach Seattle.
When my coffee was brought over I closed it into my cold hands and leaned back into the chair and lifted one of my legs to place it on the chair. "I can't wait to see her dress!" Renee said. She and Phil were talking about how excited they were for Bella and Edward and I couldn't agree more with them. Edward was the perfect husband for Bella. Although he was a vampire he was all I could wish for in a man and she knew Bella was too. We had kind of the same taste as it came to men. I only had hoped that he wasn't a vampire that was always lingering for her blood. I know he was somehow, although he said he didn't. The way he looked at her when they were over in Jacksonville with the tickets his parents had been giving for her birthday. It seemed so long ago now.
I remembered Bella walking out of the gate when she came over with those tickets. I knew she was on her way and it was a surprise for mom. I went over to get her. It was a few months after I turned 16 and I was allowed to drive a car since I took my lessons back when I was 15. While driving we couldn't stop talking and Edward couldn't stop smiling. Every time Bella was alone with mom, he and I talked things through. There were things that I didn't quite understand of his kind. He explained everything and I was glad he agreed with me knowing. Bella needed someone to talk to.
"Amelia!" Renee snapped her fingers in front of my face and I looked up at her face and saw her bag around her shoulder. "Come on we got a plane to catch!" She said quite in stress and I got up and grabbed my bag. "No rush, little girl" Phil said with a smile on his face. "The gate just opened so we have time." I calmed down. "Mom, please don't stress me out. We are next to the gate and there is a huge line!" she said walking with Phil behind a running Renee who placed herself at the back of the line. Her glare on our faces as we walked up to her slowly. I couldn't help but poke my tongue out to her and smile.
After all the check ins the plane was driving over to fly. I looked out the window and saw all the houses of Jacksonville getting smaller and smaller. It didn't take long before the clouds were surrounding the airplane and left my fantasy to not stop. I smiled the whole time. I loved this. I thought of all the times Bella had called me when she moved and how I never came to see how everything was. I was going to walk in to her life now and see all of it myself. Maybe the best day that was happening to me.
