Chapter 7
BPOV
I can not take anymore of this today. I thought as i stalked toward the office.
"Mrs. Cope," i said in my sweetest voice, trying to look pathetic.
"Oh Bella Swan, what can i help you with?"
"I cant find Mr. Varner anywhere and if i don't leave now i will miss my ferry to Seattle. Is there anyway i can just have you put it in his box? My dad really wants me to be on he 3pm ferry."
"of course dear. Anything for you." she said giving me a pitying look. I have been getting that look all day. I should start a drinking game i thought giggling to myself.
"Thanks I really appreciate it." i said smiling before practically running out the door.
Quickly i ran down my internal list of things to do before i could leave
clean out locker check
put gas in car check
say goodbye to Charlie check
leave chicken notes for Alice and Angela check
write last will in case of accidental death check

"Edward!" I whispered urgently from the doorway of his bio II class. "Edward!"
Annoyed he looked at me waiting for my thoughts to fill his head.
Change of plans Bella is already gone. Fake sick and meet me at the Volvo.

I have to admit that the new car has some benefits. Such as being able to drive the actual speed limit on the highway and getting somewhere ahead of schedule. Actually being able to speed is another of the blessed benefits. Charlie had been great about cleaning out the truck for me, however, he had thrown everything in a box and put it in the front seat. So i took the extra time to put my stuff away and familiarize myself with the new modern conveniences that i could now enjoy.
While i was putting my CD holder on the visor, a letter fell into my lap. Walking to the upper deck, i opened the envelope and started to read.
Dear Bella,
You didn't really think you were going to get away without me knowing did you? And sneaking out of school ahead of schedule wasn't very nice either! Please try to think of me when you change you plans, i don't think i am asking too much :)
Don't worry I will be sure to look for your note in my locker tomorrow. I am sure it is chalked full of the many reason why you are leaving school so close to graduation. And if its not, you will be hearing from me. If you check your glove box you will find your new cell phone. I know! Your welcome!!
Oh My Gosh!! You new car is super cute. Wasn't that nice of Charlie and Renee to buy you a new one? Rosalie can't wait to get her hands on it…Now stop thinking that Bella, she likes you. Really she does. It's just hard to tell with her sometimes. We are both begging you not to put that Pimp My Ride air freshener back up. Emmett gave that to you as a joke, we never expected you to get so attached. Seriously Bella!!
Now I have taken the liberty of replacing some of the items in your suitcase for you. You really shouldn't try to argue with me about this, you are positively tiny these days and your old stuff doesn't fit. Besides what you packed was not at all appropriate for your stay with your aunt. Don't be mad Bella, it is all stuff I bought almost a year ago, for me and Rose but it will fit you. I will have some new stuff delivered to you directly. Stop making that face!
Now here are some, how should I put this, suggestions for your vacation.
Belly dancing will not be a good idea. Don't even consider it.
Tequila is no ones friend. Or so you will tell me later if you drink it.
No cliff diving. I realize you wont be near a cliff but it has to be said!
Don't stand too close to the railing on the Ferry, I don't trust human craftsmanship.
You cousin only has your best interests at heart, but purple really isn't your color and certainly doesn't belong in your hair. Try some blue extensions if you must.
Now have fun, I will see you in three weeks!! Yes i know you will be gone for four.
And I know you are worried about our friends in Volterra, I will keep an "eye" on them. But you need to think about your future while you are away. There are ways we can keep you safe if you want to remain as you are. I hope that you don't, I really want us to be sisters, and Carlisle has agreed to help me change you if I have to. Whatever you decide you want to do, we will support you. We love you Bella, you are part of our family now. Don't forget that.
Love
Alice.
ps. Turn around right now. Please talk to Edward you both need to clear the air.
