Chapter 9

Eventually school was over, though it took me about another 10 minutes after the bell had gone to convince Jason that I would be fine walking home by myself. It was actually quite a long walk. Dad was working late tonight so I had to get home on foot. I flipped open my phone and called my mum. I smiled when she picked up.

Hey mum.

El!! It's great to hear from you again. How are you finding Forks? Is your dad treating you nicely? Have you made any new friends? Do you know where I left my car keys.

I laughed at that last comment. It was just the sort of thing she'd ask. "Mum, I think you've got me confused with Bella. She's the organised one I get most of my traits from you." I heard her chuckle at the other end.

Right sorry. Anyway, we found out the sex of the baby today. Do you want to know.

A large grin split my face. I was really happy for mum and I couldn't wait to meet my new sibling. "Of course I want to know. I have to help you choose a good name." She was so excited about it.

You are going to have a new...half...BROTHER!

She screamed in my ear and I winced a little. Sometimes. Mum was too loud for even me. "That's fantastic mum!" We spoke for a long time throwing around baby names. I was finally able to convince my mum that it would be better to talk to Phil about her chosen name (Raziel Storm Swan). I said goodbye as I approached home. I dumped my bag on the floor: I could do my homework later, and went upstairs to my room. The day had left me feeling drained of all energy. I smiled Bella would be doing her school work right now before settling down with a book or cooking dinner.

With that thought came sadness. I missed my sister. A lot. I went to my suitcase (still partly packed) and pulled out one of my oldest sketch books. It was the first one and I sat down and began to flick through it. The first drawing I had ever done: my family. 4 Stick figures holding hands in a line with big red paint grins. I was in the middle, the shortest of them all and Dad was on my left, Bella was on my right. She had always encouraged me to draw. I looked at the other drawings. Bella featured in a lot so did dad. Mum never really sat still long enough for me to sketch her.

I sat there for about 20 minutes just reminiscing and laughing at my first feeble attempts at drawing. Then I noticed a note stuck to my desk. I scanned it and groaned.

To El

Since I'm going to be out late tonight can you do the shopping? I won't be able to do it since I'm out saving lives and keeping the peace. I mean if you don't want to I'll do it after my long hard work day.

From Charlie

I groaned, and took the money off the table. I remembered where the little supermarket was and threw on my coat. I put on my shoes and locked the door. This time I remembered to bring a can of pepper spray. Sure it wasn't dark but still. I shook my head. I was probably the only person who could get in trouble in Forks. Despite my non-existent sense of direction I found the shop and bought some stuff for today and tomorrow. Unfortunately, I had 2 arms and 4 reasonably heavy plastic bags. I struggled down the pavement with my arms full of bags. Why did I always have to do the shopping? Probably because Dad always guilt trips me in to doing it. Man I hate it when he guilt trips me. I always fall for it.

"Do you need any help with those?" someone asked. The voice was light and like a soprano. I looked behind me and saw a girl that kind of resembled a pixie staring at me with big golden eyes. I smiled at her, she seemed really friendly. I shook my head though. "No it's fine. My house isn't that far from here." She continued to stare at me with those big golden eyes. "Umm..My name is El. Well Eleanor really but everyone calls me El." I said and she smiled even bigger. If that was even possible.

"So your Bella's sister." I froze and stepped back. "I'm Alice. Alice Cullen. Bellas sister in law." My mouth went dry and for once I was speechless. "Bella talks about you a lot. She really misses you but she has to stay inside for the moment. But I wouldn't worry about it. I'm sure you'll see her soon." her tone changed at the last part almost like she was 100% sure that I'd see Bella. I had no clue what to say so I just nodded. She seemed a lot friendlier than her sister and I was already warming up to her.

XXXX

So this was Bellas sister, already I could see me dragging her around the shops in Port Angeles. She looked a little cautious but nice. I couldn't believe that Caius was going to...well. I'm not sure exactly. His decision kept on changing. Sometimes I would see El walking down the isle in a gorgeous white dress with him watching her with love. In other visions I would see her eyes red and with pale skin feeding off an innocent bystander with Caius now where in sight or Caius wiping Eleanors blood from his mouth. I was going to do all I could to keep El alive but first she had to trust me.

"So are you friends with my sister?" She asked and I smiled again. Bella hadn't stopped talking about El since she had heard that her little sister was coming. I nodded eagerly and she backed off a little more. Maybe I was coming over as a little over-enthusiastic.

"Yep, Bella is my best friend." She relaxed at this and moved a little forward. "Are you sure you don't want any help?" I asked again, it seemed a lot for a human to carry. She smiled "No, I got it. So do you know when I could see my sister." Unfortunately, no. My visions didn't give an exact data.

"Sorry, she's still pretty ill but who knows what the future holds." I laughed at my own lame joke and she laughed too. Probably just to be polite. I couldn't believe that Edward didn't like her well dislike was a tad too strong he just kinda found her a nuisance. Saying that her presence was distressing Bella because she couldn't see her. But then again for Edward, everything revolves around Bella.

"Hey do you want to go shopping sometime?" Wait I hadn't asked that. I stared at El, she was smiling brightly. "Bella used to tell me about her friend Alice who had amazing fashion sense and loved to shop. So do you want to go to town this weekend?" She looked at me expectantly. Wow that was quicker than I'd though it'd be but still.... "I would love to go, here's my cell phone number."

XXXX

We swapped numbers and I waved goodbye before struggling back towards home. Alice seemed like someone I could be close to and I needed a friend and quick. Anyway I was walking back down the street when who should appear. Jason. I covered a grimace.

"Hey Ellie." he said and walked over. I gritted my teeth. I hated being called Ellie. "Hi Jason." I replied my tone a little cold.

"So. A bunch of us are going down to La Push on Sunday. You want to come?" I frowned. La Push where had I heard that before. Oh Yeah. Bells friend Jacob something lived there. It was a reservation. From what Bella had told me it was beautiful and I would love to draw it. But that would mean having to put up with Jason for a couple of hours. Was it worth it. My creative and curious side got the better of me.

"Sure that sounds fun, I'll ask my dad if I can borrow his car." Jason nodded then got a thoughtful look on his face.

"I'm sure that Chief Swan is very busy on Sundays so why don't I pick you up in my car?" No way. I shook my head. "I'm sure Dad won't mind. Cya in school Jason." Before he could say another word I turned and bolted towards my home. I was so relieved to get away that I didn't look where I was going and wouldn't you know it I slammed into someone.

"Oh, I'm so sorr-" I looked up. No. My luck could not be that bad. But it was. I had ran into Caius and now my shopping was scattered around. Ugh! When had I turned into my sister?

"Stunned you speechless eh, kitty?" He mocked with that damn smirk on his face.

I opened my mouth to retort back when: "El, are you OK?" I wanted to slap my head. Why me? Jason hurried over and was looking worriedly at me. I smiled back. "I'm fine Jason." I looked up at Caius and froze. He was looking at Jason with fury in his eyes. I gulped already imagining the blood bath.

AN: OK I know not much Caius/El in here but I'm working on it. As I've said before this idea was given to me by Lone-angel-1992 and I'm running a little short on ideas. So if you have any cool ideas for the story I'd love to hear them. I have the basic idea but any little twists would be good and as always advice is appreciated. Hope you enjoyed this new chapter!

Sneak Peak

I looked up from the rock I was sitting on. Bella wasn't kidding La Push was breath-taking. I heard a noise from behind and I spun around to face the large brown eyes of a wolf.
