OK, so I went and looked at my Story Stats and it says I'm getting A LOT of hits and views…but THREE reviews! I was so sad! I think my summary isn't that good so it isn't appealing people…so that will change :)..anyways…on with the new chapter..:)
Ignorant Bliss chapter two: Welcome to Alaska.
And since I didn't do this last chapter…Disclaimer: I, obviously, do NOT own any of the characters portrayed in this story…anything recognizable belongs to their rightful owners :)..
Bella's POV
I really never thought that I would have ended up like this…a vampire...but there is no going back. Obviously, I just wish that it wouldn't have happened the way it had...so soon after our mothers death.
-Flashback-
Two years ago…
"Bells, come on, let's go. We need to get moving now." It was Alice. I knew that much, but I couldn't really place the words. Why would they want to leave this place? It was the only memory we had left of our mom, and they just wanted to leave.
"Bella, come on sis! We need to leave now." This time, it was Emmett
"I can't. We can't just pack up and leave!"
"We have to. Come on, it will be ok. We will be ok."
So that was it. We packed up all our things, what we had, and left…to Italy. Letting go...it's something even the oldest of us have had to master again and again.
Two months later...
"Hey honey, I'm homeeee!"
"Yeah, Em. We know. Who wouldn't what with all the stomping?"
"Come on! Sheesh Bells, what's with you?"
"Nothing, I'm just freaked out. I ran into some people today. I mean if you could call them that. They were so strange...pale white skin, red eyes...It was just creepy."
"Hmm, I think I know who you're talking about."
"Yeah me too. I saw them yesterday, and they were just watching me with creepy stalker looks." Alice replied.
"Yeah, they came into the shop today. Something is off about them." Emmett agreed.
"Well, oh well, maybe…I don't know. I'm going to bed. Night guys."
"Night."
-3:00 am-
"It is impossible to sleep when it's this cold? Em, did you turn down the heat again?"
Silence
"Em, hello, anybody-"
"Shush now, child," said a soothing voice. "Come, as there is much in store."
-End Flashback-
"Bella? Bellaaaaa! Snap out of it and lets gooooo!" Alice said.
"Alice, leave your sister be." Carlisle said.
"But dad, we have to go! We're going to be late!"
"Late? To the mall? Now how is that?"
"It's the mall, dad! Fine. Bella, can we go now please?"
"Oh, yay, this should be fun. More pranks?"
"Emmett, no! We just got settled! Do not ruin it! I don't want to move again. Yet."
"Jeez kid. Just playing, but yeah, let's go, shall we?"
"We shall," I say, threading my arms through theirs.
"Kids...well... Bella? Please make sure your sister doesn't buy out the place and Emmett behaves himself."
"Will do dad. Got a leash on hand?"
"Ha-ha hilarious Bella," Alice said sourly.
As soon as we got there, of course, Alice drags us to the…
"Alice, no. No! I am not getting this! If I were to wear this out, dad would have a stroke! Ok, well, rhetorically saying, but still! No, and that's final!"
"Bella, you may as well give up. We all know who's going to win this." Emmett said laughing
"Exactly, just give u-"
"Alice?"
"Yo, Ali. Anyone there?"
"Oh-my-gosh, no way." She whispered
"Ali, what is it?" I asked. All she did was point her finger…oh god.
There, standing right in front of us, not even twenty feet away, were two guys with a girl, and they looked so…like us. The beautiful looks, pale skin, and…gold eyes. They were looking at us to, looking just as confused and yet relieved as I knew we looked.
"This cannot be real," Emmett whispered.
"Well, how about we not all stare at each other! It's weird. Let's go talk to them!" Alice the brilliant said.
Then, before I even registered what we were doing we were standing right there, in front of them. For the longest time, it seemed we just all stared at one another.
"Creepy," Em said, waving his hand in front of them as if they would go straight through, which of course caused us all to laugh.
"Yes Emmett, it is so very 'creepy'. Gosh, why do you have to be an idiot?" Alice said. "I'm sorry, forgive me for my brothers behavior. He's not the brightest one of the bunch."
"Hey!"
"My name is Alice, this is Bella, my sister, and of course, our brother Emmett."
"I'm Rosalie, these are my brothers, Jasper and Edward, and it is quite alright about your brother. We all need a laugh now and then."
"Thank you Rosalie," Emmett said.
"Well, I am sorry to cut this short, but we must be on our way home. Catch you later?"
"Sure," Alice replied.
After they left we all went home. We told Carlisle what had happened and, of course, he was glad that there were people here like us. People we didn't have to act different around. We could just be ourselves. Later, Alice and Emmett went to hunt and Carlisle went to his study, leaving me with a whole lot of nothing to do.
I thought back to the three new people we had met. Rosalie, tall, long blonde hair, and very beautiful. Jasper, tall, curly blonde hair, slim but built and of course very handsome. Edward, tall, reddish-brown disarray of hair, and like Jasper, slim and built, and incredibly gorgeous. But the best part of all this was their eyes...gold. That only meant one thing. They, like us, only fed off of animals.
"Weird," I mumbled to myself, then went to fetch my much beloved laptop.
Sometimes I think back to my old life and noticed how much I have changed. I am no longer the little girl I used to be, nor am I the women I yearn for others to see me as. Though I know I have my family, I can't help feeling like something is missing. That one thing, I am sure, will be the thing that will change me…make me blossom. I have yet to spread my wings and step forth to the line I need to cross. They say before I can run I will need to be able to walk. There are big steps that I know I will need to cross. Though I know it may not be the easiest thing, it is still the much needed thing I need to do in order to let go…
The stakes are high, but I know I am not alone in this battle.
-Bella
"Bells, do you ever go one night without writing in that thing?" Alice asked me later, eyeing the laptop I was typing on, when we were on our way to school. It was our first day at this new school.
"Nope."
"Sheesh, ok. Now let's go in here and show these people who run this school now!"
"Ha, yeah, right, keep the dream living, sister."
"Well, let's get this show on the road!" Em said, jumping out of the car.
As always when we walked to the office, everyone stared. You would think we would get used to it, but I think it just gets more annoying every time.
"Excuse me, miss?" Alice asked. "We are the new students. The Cullen's."
"Ah, yes, uh...here are your papers dear."
"Thanks."
"Alice, Bella, Emmett? Is that you?"
"Rosalie!" Emmett yelled. running towards the three.
"Emmett! Watch out!" Alice yelled.
Ha, Great
