[Edward drags Rowan over to Bella's house in the middle of the night.]
Edward: Hello Chief, is Bella awake?
Charlie: It's 11PM why are you here?
Edward (gestures to Rowan): This is my new friend and Bella has been asking to meet them
Charlie:
Charlie: At 11PM on a Wednesday?
Rowan: Hi! *enthusiastic hand wave*
Charlie: I'm sure you're a nice guy but please shut up
Charlie (to Edward): She's asleep, so go home and try again
Edward: Aww…
Charlie:
Charlie: Why did she befriend you…
Edward: R u d e!

Forks, Washington, USA, 2005
Edward: I don't understand, what's wrong with guests at 11PM?
Rosalie: Are you seriously asking us that?
Edward: Well… yes?
Esme: Edward, dear, I think you've been a vampire for too long
Edward: Eh?
Jasper: Humans usually sleeps by then…
Edward: I know that! I remember being human once, you know!
Rosalie: So what's the problem?
Edward: The fact that she was very much awake, maybe? I could hear her
Rowan:
Rowan: So that's what that weird noise was!
Carlisle: Yes, usually we can hear them moving around or breathing. You'll get used to it
Rowan: This is awesome
Edward (cringing): No, it's really not

Edward: I'm getting bored. I think I'll get a job
Bella: What in the? Where?
Edward: Walmart, maybe?
Bella: Of all the places… Why?
Edward: They're open 24/7, so I can take the graveyard shifts! That way, I don't have to worry about lighting up like a disco ball, and I can read up on some subjects I've been neglecting!
Bella: You do you, I guess. Also, what subjects?
Edward: Like Chinese history; I was looking into Chinese dynasties some twenty odd years ago, but life got a bit too much and I stopped. I really should get started again, it was fun
Bella: Huh, didn't take you for a history nerd
Edward (shrugging): When you've lived for as long as I have, you tend to get a lot of hobbies. Gets a bit boring doing the same thing over and over for decades, you know?
Bella: I never really thought of that
Edward: Well, time to get started, if you really want to become a vampire. Though I don't know why you would…
Bella:
Bella: Do you, like, want to talk about it?
Edward: Absolutely not

[At Bella's house.]
Bella: So you're Rowan, Edward's new sibling?
Rowan: We haven't decided what coven I'll join, but yes. Nice to meet you!
Bella: I love you already
Edward: No, wait, you were supposed to end up with Jacob
Bella:
Bella:
Bella: Excuse me? Since when?
Edward: I decided that when we first moved here
Bella: HOW IS THAT YOUR CHOICE
Rowan: I feel like I'm missing something
Bella: Me too!
Edward: Okay, let's take it from the beginning… Before I knew you were like me, I decided that I wanted nothing to do with you, so I kind of hoped you'd turn your attention to Jacob
Bella: Okay that makes sense but no, he's like a brother to me, and we don't date our brothers where I'm from
Rowan: So not Alabama?
Bella: *snorts* I like this one, keep them

Bella (to Alice): Where's Edward? I haven't seen him today
Alice: He seems to be in a bad mood, so he's skipping school this week
Bella: Should we be worried?
Alice (shrugging): I wouldn't be, he always comes back
Jasper: Last time, it took ten years
Bella: What?!
Alice: Ooh, right! Around when he found the letters, right?
Bella: Letters?
Jasper: Correspondence from a dead human friend of his
Bella:
Bella:
Bella: Shit. And when was that?
Alice: The mid-80s?
Jasper: 1985
Bella: Fuuuuuuuuck
A/N: Hi! Yes, I'm alive! Lol
So yeaaaah I completely forgot this fanfic (again), so sorry about that... Instead of working on this, I got a cat (his name is Casper, he's orange, he's got the IQ of a rock and I love him dearly), my university courses got worse and I failed one (phonology for those interested) so now I have to look forward to THAT :'))))) I also started and finished another fanfic (Harry Potter) and I'm currently editing that, so maybe I'll post it in like a hundred years when I'm finished lol
You can, for obvious reasons, expect sporadic updates for a while, mostly because I forgot half the plot and since I didn't take notes, I've read through what I've already written and am trying to piece it together from there. Wish me luck lol
Also, I'd recommend you read this on AO3 (under the same name), because that's where I primarily upload this
