Two of a Kind Chapter 3, a twilight fanfic

chapter 3.

A/N:I went ahead and started this chapter right after I posted the Author's note, I'll probably publish this chapter at least.

Disclaimer: It would be a dream to own Edward Cullen, but I don't:(

Bella's POV

Biology was painfully slow. I was left by myself to work on our partner work. I was still the first person done with all the work. These classes passed slowly. As I continued reading Wuthering Heights every time I read about Edgar Linton, I shuddered. The name so painfully close to the absent boy that would've been sitting by me.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The rest of the week was similar to that first day Edward wasn't at school. Except I wasn't on that natural high everyday.

Alice continued to offer me rides home, which I denied daily. I had to have some way to get my truck home everyday.

Gym continued to get worse and worse. We dressed out daily, and athletisism wasn't my thing. Mike helped me out all the time though.

I found out he was dating this Beth girl everyone still talked about. He told me that we looked like we were at least related. He thought that we probably were. It was from him also, that I found out Beth was returning home from her Grandparents this afternoon.

Edward's POV

Having Tanya follow me around all day was getting old already. I looked at the clock, back in Forks, the new girl would just be finding out that I wasn't at school.

Bella, she was different than her sister, not as cocky and arrogant. I decided that Beth wasn't deep enough to even come up with a charater like this. And her scent was different, irresitible.

I thought about it and my throat became scratchy just thinking about it. The door to the guest room I was staying in swung open. I saw Tanya from the corner of my eye. She came and jumped on the couch enthusiastically.

She tried to cuddle in, but I shrugged her off. It was always like this, which is why I always knew I had a place to stay.

I mean other than with my family. They were there for me no matter what. Especially Alice, she was most supportive about everything. I was wondering why she hadn't called me yet.

As the thought ran through my head, I felt a vibration coming from my jacket pocket. Wow. I thought she was the physchic one.

I double checked my phone, it was her. I opened it and climbed off the couch as Tanya kept moving in.

"EDWARD ANTHONY CULLEN!" the high pitched voice started a headache.

"Alice Cullen!" I said in a mock voice in attempt to cheer her up. It didn't.

"Why did I arrive home yesterday to find out my big brother was in Alaska?"

I wondered how Carlilse had figured it out, but I feel like he should just know everything.

"Alice, why did you talk to her?"

She knew who I was talking about.

"Well I had to find out what was going on, and now I know why Beth's away for the week. and you didn't answer me" I didn't feel it was necessary to say anything, she was going to tell me anyways.

"You'll never guess." This time she waited.

"What?" I asked for her benefit.

"I dropped her off at the very same house where Beth lives, but it wasn't her, I just know, they smell so different."

"I know," I didn't realize I said my thought out loud.

"Edward, do you realize what's going to happen? I only see two options," Alice was so sure of her visions, I realized right off what she thought the future held.

"That's why I'm here, Alice. I won't change her future. It will be just as if I had never even seen her."

"Not fair, Edward! I'm going to be her best friend, no matter what you decide to do. And I thought I'd let you know, everyone here misses you, Esme especially, she thinks it's her fault."

"That's absurd." I said simply.

"I know that, but you know she isn't rational when it comes to her family, she just wants you home, we all do."

"I know," I repeated. I looked up to see Tanya staring at me, if she could've blushed she would have.

I looked away simply, "I miss everyone too, give them my love."

"Bye, Edward."

"Bye, Alice" I said and flipped the phone shut.

"I'm going for a walk," I told Tanya as I walked out the door. She waved goodbye sadly.

I bolted out the door at an unrealistic speed, leaving everyone at the house in the past. I stopped a few miles west of their home.

I stood in the snow breathing in the cold air, looking out over the small creek I used to visit to think. I hadn't been here in at least five years, but nothing had changed.

I knew I would return to Forks soon, but I had to stay here at least a little while longer. A week, I decided, at the longest. I sat down in the snow and remembered how much I missed the snow.

I enjoyed the weather and wished I could've fallen asleep right where I was.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tanya pressed herself into me. Not leaving the hug. I finally puled away, "Thanks for everything Tanya."

I told her and climbed into my Volvo. I drove until I saw my house coming up.

I slowed as saw Alice prance out onto the porch. "Of course," I muttered to no one. I parked in our oversized garage. I pulled in and stepped out of my car. Alice almost jumped into my arms when I came in the house.

I was reminded of a dog rushing to the door whenever its "person" came in after being gone for a month.

I chuckled, glad I was the only one who could hear what I was thinking. I was then ambushed by Esme. She ran in from the living room to embrace me in a hug as tight as a mountain lion could.

I let a grin spread across my face. Rosalie stood in the corner shooting me daggers from her amber eyes. I smiled at her, "missed you too Rose" I told her calmly, the smile never leaving my face.

Emmett boomed down the stairs to welcome me. It was as if I had gone off to war, and was coming home for good.

Beth's POV

I slept until 1 every afternoon, I was going to have to thank Dad for this random trip. I had no idea what this was for. But I was loving it.

I did miss Forks though and everyone in it. I even missed the rain a little. I didn't miss having to wear a giant coat around everywhere.

I didn't see how I was going to get all of my new clothes home in just the two suitcases I had brought, I was going to have to do a lot of shoving. There were going to be unneccesary things in my carry-on back home.

"Bye, Grandma," I felt a tear run down her face as it was pressed against mine. "Don't worry, I'll see you when you come over for Thanksgiving."

I would miss them, but my grandma was so emotional, I almost giggled as she was elated in the realization.

I gave my grandpa a hug goodbye and headed for the exit gate. I smiled as I thought of Dad meeting me at the gate.

A/N: cliffy? a little? reveiw:) Make me feel better.
