A/N: Okay a few of you have asked if I can make Bella 17 when she gets changed because you don't like it when she is older than Edward. I totally agree and this is how I am going to make your wishes come true.

Skip?

" Thanks Alice. I had a great time," I said as she dropped me off at my house. I had been with Alice all day. We went shopping, much to my disgust, but we ended the great day by going to a library for three hours. We spent the time finding books and swapping and discussing the other person's choices. It had been a great day. One bad thing though, I hadn't seen Edward all day.

" Yeah me too," she said. Just as I turned away her eyes slipped out of focus. I spun back around and grabbed her face as she fell into one of her visions. I heard Jasper open the front door and run out.

" What is it?" He asked as he skidded to a halt beside the car.

" Just a vision." I said hopefully.

Alice stared to shake and then her eyes focused back on mine.

" Alice?" I asked fearfully. She blinked her eyes a couple of times and shook her head. Then she smiled.

" It was nothing. Just a usual vision," she replied. Jasper and I sighed with relief.

" Um Bella. Dad wants to see you. He has a letter for you. He wouldn't tell me what it was about," Jasper said. I nodded and ran towards the house as Jasper and Alice kissed each other goodbye.

I opened the front door and skipped through to the lounge room, my bag of library books swinging from my arm.

" Yes Dad," I said stopping in front of him. His head was bowed. My smiled slipped off my face.

" Dad what is it?" I asked taking in his slouched position and the way he clung to a fat, white envelope.

" Come with me," he said solemnly standing up. He led me through to his bedroom.

He sat down on his bed. Finally he looked up into my eyes. Brown meeting brown.

" Bella, I have just received a letter from your school," he said pursing his lips. I gulped. What had I done?

He handed the envelope over silently. I sat down next to him and pulled out the letter with shaking hands. I unfolded the crisp, white paper and started to read.

Dear Mr Swan

Your daughter, Isabella Swan, has shown great interest and commitment to her schoolwork and is improving with great speed. She completes her work quickly and correctly and finishes a while before the other student sin her classes.

After talking to all of her teachers, I have come to the decision that Miss Isabella Swan would flourish and work to the best of her ability if she was moved up to Grade 11 next year instead of 10.

As Isabella has a brother in the year above, she will be in all the joint senior classes with him, so she is not alone.

I would love to have a meeting with you and your daughter on Monday at 4pm.

I hope to see you on Monday

Yours truly,

Mr. Bancroft

I looked up from the letter into the proud eyes of my father.

" What do you think?" he asked taking my hand.

" Skip?" I asked.

" Yeah," he answered rubbing circles on my hand.

I was silent for a while. If I skip then I will graduate a year early. Then I could change a year early and be 17 forever. Just like Edward.

I looked up into my father's eyes.

" Does mum know?" I asked.

He nodded.

" It is a great opportunity. I believe you should take it," Dad replied.

He took my face in his hands.

" Renesmee would be so proud," he whispered.
