I do not own Twilight. I own Tiffani and Lexi.
Story Start
"Bella, your cousin Tiffani and her friend Lexi have arrived, come say hi," Charlie yelled upstairs but he was only answered with silence.
"Well that's not acceptable," Tiffani said with her arms crossed after she set her luggage down in the living room.
"Quite rude," Lexi said nodding her head.
"Changing that now," Tiffani shouted before running upstairs before Charlie could stop her.
"They'll be fine. Let's go order pizza," Lexi said and grabbed Charlie's arm and pulled him over to the house phone.
"Oh dear cousin of mine that I never knew until now," Tiffani said and shoved open the bedroom door when she said the last word. She frowned when she saw the back of a chair and the back of a brown haired girl. Tiffani's own layered shoulder length brown hair moved because of the air from the open window.
"Well Bella, my name is Tiffani. I'm seventeen. I am a senior in high school and so is my friend Lexi. I hope we can become great friends," Tiffani said walking towards the chair and stopping in front of Bella with a small smile. Her smile disappeared when she saw Bella. "Needs a bath, needs to learn that drooling is not attractive, dead eyes out the window is not something a teenage boy deserves, and if she is trying to receive the I'm an angst filled teenager award then she hasn't' reached that level for the award yet," she thought with a tight smile before screaming. "Zombie," she yelled and ran to the kitchen. She grabbed a bowl, filled it with cold water, and ran back upstairs.
"Zombie, be gone," Tiffani ordered and threw the cold water straight into Bella's face. She counted down the seconds as Bella went from catatonic to shocked and then to ticked.
"What was that for and who are you?" Bella shouted as she surged out of her chair.
"Well you looked like a zombie and I didn't want to hear you start mumbling brains any time soon. My name is Tiffani, your cousin, my friend Lexi is downstairs with Uncle Charlie. You need to clean out your ears," Tiffani said before running out of the room laughing.
"Get back here," Bella said and followed Tiffani out of her room.
"She's not catatonic at the moment," Tiffani cheered before hiding behind Lexi.
"Bella," Charlie said happily before frowning. "I didn't say throw water at her," Charlie said to his hiding niece.
"You were warned about my methods," Tiffani answered before Lexi pulled her out of the room so the father and daughter could have a talk. The friends did not have long to wait as they ate popcorn out in the hallway and watched Bella storm back upstairs muttering how life was unfair, she missed her boyfriend that left her, and how nobody understood her.
"Well teenage drama did not take long to make itself known," Lexi said and Tiffani groaned and hid her face in the popcorn bag. "You'll be covered in butter," she said and heard an amused sound.
"Mmm, butter," her friend said and the two smiled when the pizza guy arrived.
Later that night, the girls went to bed wondering what the new high school would be like. Bella would be driving them to school and Tiffani was cringing. She wanted to drive herself around and not worry about how Bella would drive. Lexi was a little sad that they were not at school with their friends from back home but she was interested in the new school. She hoped the literature classes would be fun.
The next morning, Tiffani was up first out of the girls and noticed that Charlie had left for work. She quickly fixed a plate of waffles for herself and then a plate for Lexi. She took up the plates and set one of Lexi's nightstand as a peace offering when she woke up her friend.
"Here are the waffles, please don't bite me. I'm too young to die and you are not a shark," Tiffani said quickly as she held the plate of waffles in front of her and between her and Lexi.
"Give," Lexi ordered and Tiffani gave the waffles to her friend before diving across the room and into the closet.
"Cooler in my mind but that really hurt," Tiffani yelled out after she had crashed to the floor instead of on their suitcases.
Lexi just happily enjoyed her waffles as she started waking up. Her friend dug around in her suitcase before pulling out some of her homemade jewelry, her favorite fedora hat, and a cute outfit to match.
"Take a jacket or you'll freeze out there," Lexi ordered and Tiffani grabbed a jacket.
"Yes mom," her friend said and dodged a pillow. "I'm going to get dressed and then drag the zombie out of her room. Do you think zombies are allowed to go to school in pajamas?" she asked with a thoughtful expression.
"Zombies don't go to school unless they are going for an all you can eat buffet of brains," Lexi said logically and received a bright nod before her friend disappeared from their room. Lexi waited after finishing her late bite of waffle. She listened for any noise in the house and she was not disappointed.
"Edward did not leave me," Bella's outraged scream tore through the house and shook the windows.
"Then where is he now and why were you a dummy that decided a nap in the woods with bears and mountain lions was a great idea?" Lexi listened to Tiffani ask in reply. "That's like putting up a sign saying free food in a supermarket," Tiffani said again and this time Lexi laughed.
"Why did Charlie bring you here?" Bella moaned and Lexi could just imagine Tiffani copying her actions.
"Because you were being a whiny teenage girl that needs to learn to pull your head out of the guy's butt," Tiffani answered back before running into the bedroom she now shared with Lexi, who was now dressed and ready to go to school.
"Five minutes or we are leaving you," Lexi said to Bella, who was standing there frowning at the floor. Bella rushed to her room and quickly dressed herself. "Why doesn't that work when I tell you that?" Lexi asked her friend.
"Because you know if you did leave me then we would have the longest and most outrageous prank war like we did last year, which our families almost killed us over it," Tiffani said before grabbing her messenger bag, which had button and bows sewed on to it thanks to her boredom.
"Forgot about that," Lexi said and they walked outside of the room. Tiffani's hair immediately became wavier and fluffier outside because of the humidity.
"Great, I'm a poodle," her friend whined as they walked to Bella's truck and unlocked it.
Bella joined the two of them with a minute to spare, but she could have at least not picked toast with red jelly. "Zombie, I told you," Tiffani whispered to Lexi, who laughed.
"Well I didn't bring my baseball bat so you'll just have to watch out for yourself," Lexi whispered back as both girls quickly buckled their seatbelts when Bella started the truck.
"Don't talk to me at school," Bella said so quietly that the girls almost did not hear her.
"Wouldn't dream of it," Lexi said with a roll of her eyes before seeing Tiffani smirking at the unsuspecting victim.
"We'll just shout out whatever we say and technically we are not talking," Tiffani whispered to Lexi, who happily agreed with the plan.
"Welcome to Forks High School," the friends said happily when Bella pulled into the parking lot.
