All known stuff belongs to their actual owners


Chapter 11

It was the morning after the makeovers. We were still sleeping in the van, but Mandy had abandoned us and gone home. Well, it wasn't like we needed her anymore, and apparently she didn't need her van either.

Jess leaned over and poked my shoulder.

"Ouch! What was that for?"

"I want my phone back."

"Oh... damn! I left it in a bin..."

"Seriously?"

"Just kidding... it's under your pillows."

Jess fetched her phone.

"Funny... wasn't there three seconds ago. And why did you have to dye my hair snot green?"

"Um... wash your hair... it'll come straight out."

"First I have to kill a pixie."

Jess then ran up to The Cullens' house (about 3 feet away) and rang the doorbell. Alice, naturally, answered, and Jess tried to punch her.

Alice being a future telling vampire, caught the punch. I couldn't help but laugh. Jess, however, didn't find it quite so funny.

"You think this is funny?" She said, turning to me.

"Um... yes, actually."

"I have snot coloured hair, and your hair is... somewhat nicer... I never bloody asked for snot coloured hair."

"We were trying to piss you off. Alice is going to do it black for you after you've washed it."

And just like that, Alice and Jess ran upstairs.

I knew what they were doing, Jess was off to wash her hair, and Alice was going to dye Jess' hair afterwards.

What Jess didn't know was that this was another prank Alice and I had come up with. Yes, the dye would wash out, and Alice would dye her hair for her, but it wasn't going to be black, or her natural brown either.

Just over an hour later, Jess came down to the Cullens' living room, where I was, infuriated.

"Kaisha-Louise why did you make Alice dye my hair BRIGHT RED?"

"Because, Jessica Louise, I wanted to. Oh, and this one is PERMENANT."

Yes, I know, maybe I was being a little mean, but it was fun. She was my best friend, and who doesn't mess with their best friends? I knew Jess was probably gonna try getting me back, but I'd do something worse.

I walked into the kitchen, where Lolly was eating... a bagel... surprise, surprise (!)

"Hey, Lol."

"Hi... so... how did Jess take the next prank?"

"Um... quite well, actually. Better than I expected anyway."

"Does she look good?"

"Better than she did before. I'm bored... do you think we should go out somewhere, just the four, or three, of us? Maybe later on this afternoon?"

"Yeah, sounds great. Should I go get ready now?"

"Yeah, and if you see Anita, tell her to do the same. No shops here, though, so basically just a walk. Hang on... let's have a picnic. I'll go talk to Esme."

"Don't you need to get ready?"

"No, I can do it in all of 2 seconds, Lauren. Appearance isn't that important to me." I said, leaving the room in search of Esme.

I found her upstairs, in Emmett and Rosalie's room.

"Oh, hello, Kaisha, what can I do for you?"

"Well, we were thinking of going for a walk and a picnic soon, so would you tell us about good places to go, and would you do us the great honour of packing us some food?"

"Of course I would, now, instead of me mapping out a route for you, would you like me to send one of my daughters to accompany you?"

"Yeah, that would be great, Esme. Can you do us our picnic soon, because we're all beginning to get ready now."

"I'll be sending Rosalie, if that's alright with you. You haven't really met her yet, so I need to get her to warm up to you girls a little before we discuss options. Now, I've forgotten, what's your cover story again?"

"Yeah, that's fine, Esme, I'd really like to meet Rosalie. Well, the cover story I came up with yesterday morning was that I was Carlisle's niece, and I had bought up some friends to stay for a while. Hang on, won't I have to take the surname 'Cullen'? I don't mind if I do."

"Okay, Kaisha, it would be a good idea for you to borrow our surname during you stay. And, I think it's a good plan, but you know that you'll have to stick to that exact story, don't you? We don't want anyone catching on, now, do we?"

"Of course, thank you."

I then made my way down to the van, where I found Lauren and Anita doing their make-up, and Jess loking out the window.

"Aren't you coming?"

"No, Kaisha, I look ridiculous."

"Fair enough, but you really don't, Jess."

I then got ready myself, and put all my twilight books in my bag, along with some other essentials, and we rang the Cullens' doorbell again, to be greeted by a very... moody Rosalie, carrying a picnic hamper.

"So, it's just you three? Can we get this over with?"

"Yeah, just us. Where should we go?"

"Follow me, then."

Rosalie walked a few paces ahead of us, trying to separate herself from the rest of us, but I made sure she stayed involved.

"So, Rosalie, how are you?"

"Look, I really don't want to be here, so can we get this over with?"

"Why don't you want to be here?"

"Because I'm being punished, otherwise she'd have sent Pixie."

"What are you being punished for?"

"Um... Look, what I do in my room with my husband is my business, and Esme really has to stop pretending like I can't, and she also needs to stop snooping in there."

"So, nothing specific, then?"

"No, at least nothing that I'll happily share with you."

"Rose, can you please try and open up to us? I know that by being here, we're breaking the rules and everything, but we have a great respect for you, for all of you, and we know that you're not this... frosty... you're nicer than you let others believe... now, where are we going?"

"Anywhere."

"So... you don't know either?"

"Well, tell me how long you want to be walking for, and then I'll figure it out as we go."

"Um... a mile?"

"Ok, Kaisha."

I did wonder why I was the only one talking to Rose, but I didn't worry. We sat down by a scenic patch of flowers... at the side of the road... but that didn't bother us, it was Forks, about as busy as the village my grandparents live in. We didn't talk that much, but the three of us agreed that Esme made us a great meal.

The journey back was silent.

When we arrived back at the Cullen's door, we were greeted by a very hyper Alice.

"Okay, you four are starting at our school tomorrow. Don't worry, we've taken care of your parents, they think you're at a boarding school. Pretty farfetched, but I saw that they'd believe. Oh, you're all registered with basically your real information except, obviously, Kaisha, who will, obviously, be Kaisha-Louise Cullen, and we made Anita a bit older so she can be in the same year as you guys."

"Hang on... it's nearly Christmas, you should have left by now..." Lauren said.

"Nope, not here it isn't anyway. For some reason, it's September here."

"That's... weird..."

"I know, right?"

Alice then said that she would take us out for new school wardrobes so that we would fit in more, and we were all ushered into one of their cars. I didn't pay attention to which one it was, but we speeded down to Port Angeles, and straight to the clothes stores, where Alice told us that we could have as many clothes as we like. Obviously, I took advantage of this and ended up with a huge pile of clothes, which Alice, typically, thought was a little too small, it was, however, bigger than Anita, Lolly, or Jess's pile.

When we got back in the car, I asked to go to the local game shop, because I adore games, and Alice treated me to everything that I wanted there, which was a lot. She also made sure that I got a lot of iTunes gift cards, as she knew that I love music. She then gave me her email, and told me that the Cullens had Wi-Fi, and gave me the access code.

We then headed back to the house and put our stuff away.

The rest of that day went far too quickly, and we soon found ourselves being sent to bed by Alice, who insisted that we go to sleep super early so she could do our makeup before school.


Hope you enjooyed it :) I'm already working on the next chapter, and I promise to have it up very soon :) I know this is all highly unrealistic, and impossible, but remember, it's fiction, don't take it too seriously. )

Till next time,

Kaisha :)
