"Okay first of all thanks for that secondly I hope that motivational speaking isn't something you want to get into because that was just horrible." Well now that that's over I guess I go fix up our rooms. "Wipe that look off your face Tanya it's not very attractive. I'm going to go get the rooms ready so we won't be running around trying to get everything ready right before they show up."
"Wow how smart of you to think ahead. It only took how many years for you to be able to actually use your brain." What a bitch...no wonder we're friends.
"I have no idea why I put up with you. One of these days I'm going to kick your ass and not even think twice about it. Hell I'll even kick Nick's ass if I need to so watch it tramp."
"Words can hurt Rose. Like you could take me anyways Barbie." One of these days I swear to go-
"Now girls calm down no fighting in the house. You remember what happened last time don't you?" In my defense I didn't start it.
"Charlie you know that wasn't our fault we were forced into it by the others and things just kind of escalated from there."
"I never thought I would be saying this but Charlie she's right the two if us were getting along but once we were involved we were the responsible ones that went outside. So the broken household items weren't our fault." The house looked like the start of a episode of hoarders.
"Well I'll give you guys that did you guys want to join me for dinner?" Let's see human food or no human food that is the question.
"I think I'll pass Charlie I want to get everything ready and then call the girls."
"Yeah what Malibu Barbie said." I will seriously deck her one of these days.
"Well Tanya I hate to be the one to tell you this but well how do I put this delicately? You are also blonde and Barbie-ish. So are you the pot or the kettle." Score one for Charlie.
"Well Chuck you and I were good until that came out. You sir better watch yourself. You never know when freak accidents could happen. Like less hair everywhere, some pink clothes, and maybe some random male dancers showing up at your work you know things of that nature." I think she's the oldest one in the house and that's what she comes up with.
"Wow what a big scary vamp, that's what you came up with oh how on earth will I go on with my life?" He has a point.
"Well as fun as this has turned out to be I think I'm going to go get to work so I will see you guys later."
Tanya's POV
"So how is she doing?" That is a very good question. "This is the farthest she's ever been away from them, the bond is telling her to go back to them immediately. I'm guessing that it's also getting painful for her even though she won't admit it. It doesn't help that she got into it with the Cullen's before she came over. She has a sense of duty to them even if she doesn't want it. I see her feelings towards them are going to get worse before they get better." Her sense of duty is a gift and a curse to her. "I have a feeling her anger is going to get the best of her very soon."
"You and me both." I just hope nobody important gets caught up in her anger.
"All we can do is be there for her if that happens."

If anyone were to be passing by the house at this hour there would certainty be questions on how one very feminine woman was moving a complete bedroom set, while another was lifting a couch and love seat at the same time with no help. Most curious of all was the older gentleman watching both of them seemingly unfazed by the goings on in his house. Gone are the women moving the furniture, two blurs could now be seen dashing through the house while looking for the ringing phone. The only male in the house was still sitting calmly chuckling to himself while reaching into his pocket and pulling out a cell phone. Still chuckling to himself he answered the phone.
"Hello this is Chief Swan." When Charlie looked up he was met with two pairs of disgruntled honey colored eyes.
"Hey dad how are you doing? Have the girls made it to the house yet?"
"I'm good sweetheart. How are you and the other girls doing? Why yes they've both made it over today. I believe thy are getting the stuff ready for your arrival." Twin growls were heard when Charlie didn't immediately hand over the phone.
"Tell them to calm down they'll get their turns on the phone. Everything is going according to plan, we just have a couple of more things to pack so we maybe there earlier then expected." The smile on Charlie's face could have lit up all of New York for as wide and happy it was. Although the smiles that the women were sporting was a close second.
"That is great to hear Bells I can't wait to see you guys. I know Tanya and Rose are waiting with bated breath. Maybe then you guys can keep them under control." Giggles could be heard across the phone line.
"Oh please dad it never turns out that way and we all know that." With a roll of his eyes Charlie nodded.
"I could always hope. I guess I hand over the phone before one of them snatches it from me. So give my love to everyone and I'll talk to you later." Instead of asking who wanted the phone first Charlie put it on speaker and put it on top of the table "Now remember girls," he started with a serious face "this is my work phone so no fighting over it, I don't want it to be a casualty of one of your fights...sorry one of your disagreements." Charlie corrected himself when he saw the girls were going to protest. "Now you both be the adults I know you can be." With that Charlie or up and walked out of the room.
"Hey Tanya, hey Rosalie, how are things going in Forks?" By mutual agreement Tanya started to speak for the both of them.
"We'll so far, we have both made our way home and started getting the rooms ready for you guys. Rosalie has gotten into it with her family and I have decided that I would like a pet so any ideas on that would be greatly appreciated. " The more that Tanya spoke, the more stunned Rosalie looked.
"First off I would like to point out that you are a vampire, so what kind of animal could you find that wont run away from you? Secondly what do you mean Rosalie got into a fight with her family is she okay? She's not hurt is she?" The questions were suddenly stopped when a soft sweet giggle was heard over the phone.
"Bells I'm fine no physical fights, just me walking out and coming home so I won't have to deal with any of them at the moment. So you don't have to come rushing to save me at the moment. Calm yourself before you get Lillian worked up, you know how she gets." With a snort of disbelief Tanya interrupted.
"She's worse then the both of you put together." With a roll of her eyes Rosalie continued on like she was never interrupted.
"I'm pretty confident that I can hold down the fort until you guys show up. If I need any help I'm sure that Tanya can help me out since she has so many MORE years of experience then me."
"As offended as I feel I should be because of that last comment she is right Bella. I am older then the both of you put together so sometimes I do know what I'm doing even if it doesn't seem like I do. Oh Rosalie stop rolling your eyes at me, you know that I'm awesome and you love it. I know you just don't want to admit it so be a doll and just smile and nod, or the next time you and Bella want some time alone I will be sure to send both Lilly and Nick your way." The speed in which Rosalie decided to smile an nod was something that she had never reached before. If you were to ask her to do it again, she would probably try once and say it was impossible to do.
"Watch yourself Tanya you're forgetting that I still have Kate's number and I would be more than willing to have her come visit us for a couple of months. I'm sure Maria would love to come to Forks, and I know Lilly is always more then willing to spend time with her favorite aunts. I also know no matter what they already had planned they would be willing to drop it to spend time with Lilly." The look of smug satisfaction on Tanya's face was replaced by shock and horror.
"Score one for Bella. Way to go babe but can we get back to the topics at hand, like when are you guys coming? And how has my baby been?" A loud crash could be heard over the phone followed by muffled shouting.
"Listen guys I really want to talk but apparently I have two children running around over here instead of just one. So we are coming the day after tomorrow and your baby is doing just fine. Dammit Nick what in the hell were you two doing in there? Rose babe I have to go. I love you I'll see you soon. Tanya I promise not to do any laying damage to your mate. Bye guys." Both blondes had been staring at the phone listening to the panicked brunette with amused and slightly worried looks on their faces.
Rosalie's POV
"So what do you think they got into and why wasn't she with them? She knows how they get when they're left alone together." That is a very good point.
"Well there was no major screaming or freaking out from Bella so it must not have been anything to bad but I guess we'll find out once they get here and Lilly tries to rat out Nick an blame her for everything that happened." I swear whenever Nick is babysitting she turns into a four year old that has some serious issues and one of these days someone is going to be seriously injured with all of the crap they pull.
"So I guess we worry about this later. Now that I think about it we kind of lucked out that Bella acts her age and not at all like my mate. Just think about how bad things would get with three of them." She's right I got lucky with Bella.
"Just don't say things like that when they get here, Nick might make it her goal to turn Bella to the dark side." That thought is enough to give me nightmares.
"So I heard some of your conversation, what did Thing 1 and Thing 2 get into today?" I was wondering what had happened to Charlie.
"Well that's a good question Charlie but Bella didn't tell us because she had to make sure that no one had died. So it probably wasn't too bad but you know how the girls get when they're left alone together." Well put Tanya.
"Well I haven't felt anything from that way in a while so I'm not to worried. I think they just wanted to get her in one of her moods, you know how she gets when you aren't around Rose. Maybe it was their way of calming Bella down. Not the best way bit effective none the less." He does have a point. Bella feels the bond even more strongly then I do. "Well girls I guess I go hit the sack. Before I forget are you guys going to school and if so what are your stories?" Hmmm school or no school?
"Yes Charlie we are going to school and just so you know I am Tanya and this is my cousin Rosalie. We decided to move here so we could stay close to our girlfriends Isabella and Nikolette Swan. Their dad Charlie was nice enough to let us stay with them since we were orphaned at a young age. Boom what now?" Well I guess somebody has been thinking about this quite a bit.
"I'm impressed Tanya I didn't think you could keep a train of thought going for that long. I guess I learned something new today. Now guess who gets a gold star for the day." When you see Charlie this way it's easy to see where Bella gets her personality from.
"You do remember that I am hundreds of years older then you are so watch it child." Way to make nice with your girlfriend's dad.
"Don't get your panties in a bunch granny. So I will get you guys registered for school tomorrow so you guys won't have to do it." Well there's one less thing for me to worry about.
"Thanks Charlie goodnight. We'll see you tomorrow." I feel like I'm forgetting something what could it be? "Um Tanya what are we telling people about Lilly? There is no denying who she belongs to."
