What's up? I am so sorry about the long wait, but real life has become a kicker. I have very little free time, but updates should become more frequents after the next couple of weeks. Thank you to tigergirl1723 for asking about Sam W. in the story. To be honest, I had kind of forgotten to write him into the previous chapters. Lets just say that they haven't been able to talk since its the first week of school and everything is crazy. I'll give all of you a little idea of what's coming though. I have a surprise coming in one of the future chapters for Sam W. and Katherine. Shout-out to Hollydoor and ThatOneGirlWithWifi for favoriting/following the story! On with the awesomeness that is my story!

Alice needs to have an exorcism
I didn't sleep well that night, but I decided to do exactly as my mom had said. She didn't want anyone pitying her or trying to change it and she had accepted what was going to happen, so I should do the same. With that thought in mind, determination rose in me to enjoy whatever time I had left with my mom and I got up to get dressed for the shopping trip with some of the Cullen family. I put on a yellow top with three-quarter sleeves and black shorts before braiding my hair like Katniss from Hunger Games. I put bumblebee earrings in my ears and a bumblebee necklace around my neck to finish the look.
I pulled on my black fingerless gloves and grabbed my messenger bag before throwing my taser, my gun, and my pizza designed wallet into it. I hurried downstairs when I heard someone knock, "Dr. Cullen! What brings you here?"
I stopped behind my uncle as Carlisle smiled at him, "Hello, Chief Swan. My wife and I are taking our daughters shopping and they had invited Katherine to join us. I hope this isn't a problem."
My uncle shook his head and told me, "Kat, go wake Bella for me, please." I nodded with a small frown at the dismissal and rushed off, but I still managed to hear Uncle Charlie tell the vampire, "Thanks for taking her out. She's acting like everything is okay, but that's how she deals with everything. And tell your kids that her parents and I are grateful that they've accepted her so quickly."
I couldn't see Carlisle's reaction as I shook Bella's shoulder, "It is no problem, Chief. They love her, including my oldest daughter. Rosalie has a hard time connecting with many, but she enjoys Katherine's company."
My cousin grumbled at me before glaring at me, "Why are you waking me up?"
I gave a small smile, "Your father wanted me to. And I'm heading out, so I'll see you later."
She grinned and burst out chuckling, "Have fun with the pixie. She's insane when it comes to shopping."
I quirked an eyebrow before hugging her and going back to the front door, "She's awake, Uncle Charlie. A little cranky, but awake."
My cousin yelled from the other room, "I heard that, Kat! I'll get you later!"
I gave a lopsided smirk as my uncle shook his head, "I swear you two are toddlers sometimes."
Deciding to tease him, I pouted and pointed in the direction that Bella was and whined, "But she started it!"
Bella came around the corner and mimicked me, "No, I didn't! She did!"
We both stuck our tongues out at each other before we both burst out laughing as Uncle Charlie gently pushed me out the door, "Go...just go. I'm going to go insane if I deal with you two all day." I gave him a tight hug before following Dr. Cullen to his black Mercedes, "Be careful, Kat!"
Waving, I clambered into the car after Rosalie had stepped out and I found myself sitting in between her and Alice, "Morning!"
The three girls gave different forms of greetings and Carlisle began driving off as Esme spoke, "How are you? Did you eat breakfast?"
I quirked a grin and did my best to hide my lie, "Yes, ma'am. I'm great."
Her eyes darkened with concern, "I'm sorry about your mother."
I cringed a little and hid my eyes before shrugging and trying to sound carefree, "Thanks, but it's okay. She doesn't want me to dwell on it." It was quiet for a little bit before I questioned, "So where are we going?"
Alice was bouncing in her seat a little and I edged closer to Rosalie, "Seattle! There are a bunch of great stores there!"
I was a little wide eyed at her bubbliness, "Okay then...you need to switch to decaf."
The other three vampires started laughing as Alice poked me, "Like you should lay off the caffeine?"
I folded my arms, "No. My caffeine." She smirked as the others continued to chuckle and we all made idle chatter until we reached a large mall and Alice was the first out of the car. She practically dragged me into the mall with her family following behind us and we went to almost every store. They decided I needed to eat around lunch time, so they took me to the food court and Carlisle walked with me while the three girls took the bags to a table.
"I hear you're a very talented musician."
I shrugged and blushed a little, "I think I'm okay, but everyone else says I'm really good."
We had started walking towards a pizza counter and he bought me pizza before I could protest, "I can pay for that."
He smiled as he led me towards the three girls, "Today is our treat, Katherine." I gave a small smile as we sat down and I had just taken a bit of my pizza when my phone buzzed.
I glanced at the text message before feeling a grin grow on my face, "Is that your boyfriend texting you?" I blushed a little and nodded to Alice, "Show me a picture!"
I glanced at my phone and showed them all a picture of Sam standing with Bee's holoform, "Sam's the brunette."
The two girls awed as Esme commented, "He's a nice looking boy."
I smiled and looked down at the photo, "Yeah, he's great. We've known each other since he was in second grade, but he was always into my friend until a few months ago."
Alice clapped her hands as she squealed, "I am so going to plan your wedding when you two get engaged!"
I choked on some of the soda I had just drank. It wasn't until after Carlisle clapped me on the back to help me breathe that I managed to gasp out, "'Wedding'? Neither of us have graduated yet, Alice! And we've only been dating a few months!"
She shrugged and responded lightly, "You two will get married, I know it."
I shook my head because it is pointless to argue with her and I commented, "You need an exorcism. I'm pretty sure you're possessed by a demon or the devil." Alice pouted as the other three laughed and we were soon on our way back to Forks.
Alice helped me carry my bags to the door before she flitted back to the car as I waited for Bella or my uncle to let me into the house. I was a little surprised when Edward opened the door and he scooped up all the bags on the porch and from my hands, "Welcome back, Kat. Did you have fun?"
I smirked as I shut the door behind me, "Yeah, but your sister is insane. I swear she dragged me to every store and made me try on at least fifty different outfits at each store."
He chuckled as Bella commented from the living room, "It was your idea to go with her. I warned you." I stuck my tongue out at my cousin before collapsing on a chair as Edward came back from putting my bags in my room and he claimed the seat beside Bella on the couch. A tiny prick of jealousy hit me as I watched Bella curl up against her boyfriend, but I focused my thoughts on the TV when Edward looked over at me.
It started getting late and I waved to the couple as I went upstairs to crash for the night. I changed into pajamas and put all of my clothes away before powering Skype to call Sam. I grinned as his face came into view, "Hey, Sam!"
He grinned back at me, "Hey, beautiful. How's Forks?"
I shrugged, "Not bad. It's nice being with my cousin again and her boyfriend is pretty cool, so is his family. How are your parents?"
He rolled his eyes, "Crazy as always. Ma wants to know when you're coming back for a visit."
I bit my lip, "I don't know, it depends on what happens with my mom."
His eyes darkened and his voice was soft as he spoke next, "I heard about that...I-I'm sorry."
I gave a sad smile, "Thanks, how is Bee?"
Sam rolled his eyes once more at the thought of his alien best friend, "He's pouting because you aren't here to wash the Camaro and you haven't spoken to him."
I chuckled before telling my boyfriend, "Tell him I say hi and I love him and that I owe him a good wash when I come down."
He grinned, "I gotta go. We're visiting base tomorrow. Bee's vocaliser needs to be checked again. Night, beautiful."
I nodded, "Night, handsome."
We ended the call and I climbed into my bed to catch some sleep because Alice had worn me out. Needless to say, I didn't realize that the pixie was outside my window listening to my boyfriend and I. Therefore, I didn't hear her whispering to the wind, "You two have so many trials coming, but it will be up to you guys if you stay together or not."
