Chapter 3: Anchorage.
Bella's point of view.
We got to Anchorage little over half an hour later and saw the Denali's car parked outside, they'd come to welcome us, that was nice. I looked over to Edward and he was smiling, it was our smile, the kind of smile he got from running, and I felt the answering smile spread across my face.
He pulled me up the stairs to the front door and then stopped.
'Don't freak out, please.' I felt my face slip into a frown.
'Why?'
'Just don't, okay?'
'O…kay?'
Edward swung the door open and I gasped in surprise the Cullens, the Denali and the Amazons all stood across from us with a big 'welcome home' sign hanging over their heads. An 18th of a second passed when they all whirled to face us and started screaming 'welcome home!' The Cullen's rushed over to great us, we hadn't seen each other in 38 years - apart from at Charlie's funeral but I had been too upset to talk - they had to move on and Edward and I were too attached to each other that we could barely separate even to hunt or look after Nessie. Now that we had somewhat organized that passion we were rejoining the Cullen's as they moved to Anchorage.
'Bella!' I stumbled back a few feet as Alice slammed into me for a hug. Nessie and Jake entered then, Jake in his human form, and Rose rushed to give her a hug. The rest of the Cullen's swarmed us followed by the Denali and the amazons. Zafrina pulled Nessie into an embrace saying how different she looked and how she had grown.
When we'd been hugged by everyone we moved to sit on the big sofas in the middle of the room. I'd curled up in Edwards arms with Alice resting her head on my legs, Jazz curled into her lap and Nessie and Jake sitting together on the other the other half. I stretched out, there was extra room on the sofa because no one else wanted to sit next to the werewolf, and turned my head back to Carlisle who was telling us about our new school.
'… Rosalie, Emmett, and Jasper you will all start out 16 in Year 11 and Edward, Bella, Alice, Renesmee and Jacob will be 15 in Year 10.' He paused as Zafrina stood up, gesturing to Kachiri and Senna.
'I'm sorry, Carlisle, but we have to leave now so we can get home for tomorrow.' Carlisle sighed.
'I understand, Zafrina, please visit again soon.' he stood and embraced her.
'We will also take our leave now.' Tanya said, standing up to give Nessie and me a quick hug. Kate, Carmen and Eleazar stood up as well, saying goodbye and giving everyone a hug. Carlisle went to give Zafrina and Tanya before they left, then went to show them out.
Edward got up and went to play on his piano, Carlisle or Esme had set it up in the corner of the lounge, and I went with him, wanting to stay by him all the time, to be near him.
Carlisle walked back into the room and resumed his description of our new school.
'Your going to keep up your usual adopted story. Bella, Jake, Renesmee is you could make up a story ... about your parents.' I gasped and every head turned in my direction. Carlisle's face turned deeply apologetic.
'I'm so sorry, Bella! I didn't … I … it's … I'm so sorry -'
'It's okay, Carlisle. It's just, well, y'know.' Carlisle's face brightened a bit. Jake got up, stretched and pulled Nessie to her feet.
'We're going to bed now, coz unlike you guys, we have to sleep!' Carlisle started to get up but Alice was ahead of him darting to the stairs.
'I'll show you you're room! Edward, Bella you better come to so you can see your room as well.' Alice face stretched into a huge grin and her voice went up a couple of octaves with excitement. She flew up the stairs and we all broke into a run to keep up with her. She came to a sudden halt on the second floor, three doors down.
'Nessie, Jake, this is your room!' She squealed and swung the door open. Nessie gasped, her jaw dropping and Jake's eyes popped open. The walls of the room were a sky blue and the carpet was a royal blue, in the middle of the room was a silver coloured bed with a thin blue silk coverlet. But the royal feel coming from the room was not what was most shocking but the fact that there were wolf statues carved from wood, exactly the same as Jake, dotted around the room. When Nessie started breathing again Alice beamed and pulled me and Edward away.
'We'll let you admire it on your own.' She called over her shoulder, then grabbed my hand and started jumping up and down. 'Are you ready?!' I smiled, no matter what I said now I doubted I could calm, her down.
'Okay, open it.'
Ooooh!!! Cliff-hanger! Don't hate me for it the next chapter will be up soon! Smiles xoxo!
