Chapter 1: Arrival In Forks
Elizabeth Swan
We arrived at the Port Angeles Airport and went to baggage claim. After grabbing our bags we stepped outside. Bella groaned. It was raining. I thought it was gorgeous and the smell. I've always loved the smell of rain. We didn't wait very long before a police cruiser stopped in front of us. Our dad Charlie stepped out.
"Hi Bells, Hi Liz. You ready to go?" He asked.
"Yeah Ch- Dad I am." Bella said.
"So am I Dad." I said and he grabbed Bella's bag and heaved it up.
Instead of helping she climbed in the front seat of the car. I sighed and walked to the back of the cruiser and put my bag in. Charlie shut the trunk and I hugged him.
"I missed you Dad." I said.
"I missed you to Liz." He said and we both got in the car.
We were in the car for a little over an hour and during that hour Bella became self conscious. I could tell. There were stares coming at us from all directions.
"So Liz, how is Renee?" Charlie asked.
"Moms good. She's happy." I said.
"That's good. I found cars for the both of you. Do you guys remember Billy Black in La Push right?" He asked.
"No, not really." Bella said.
"He used to go fishing with us during the summers when you guys still visited me." He said.
Bella went silent.
"I remember Dad." I said.
"Well he can't drive so he I bought his old Chevy from him. It runs good. It's old but has a lot of new parts. His son fixed it." He said.
"His son?" Bella asked.
"Oh! You mean Jacob? How is he? It's been so long. How old is he now? 14?" I asked.
"Yeah. How'd you guess kiddo? You and Jake never got along." He said.
"Uh well I've gotten older dad and eventually I want to apologize for the crap I did when I was a kid." I said.
"Don't worry kiddo you can do that Sunday when they come over. What about you Bella? Are you excited to see Jake?" He asked.
"Kinda." She said and that silenced everyone the rest of the trip.
As we were pulling into the driveway my dad gasped.
"Right, Liz since your sister doesn't have her drivers license the truck is yours, alright?" He asked.
"Okay Dad. Thank you so much." I smiled.
He mumbled a response. When we stepped out of the car I smiled. The scenery was beautiful. I looked at Bella and saw the look of disgust. We grabbed our bags and headed into the house. Bella looked around the house and I smiled. It was the same house I had "grown up in" as Liz. It was also different. He had clearly done renovations.
"Bella your room is the same and Liz yours is down here. I expanded the house and built you a room." He said.
I hugged him.
"Thanks Dad." I said.
Bella and I went into our separate rooms and Charlie left us alone to unpack. There was a bathroom built off my room. I was grateful for the extra privacy I had. I was happy to be here.
Forks was a small school and we were from a big city so I was nervous about Monday but I was also excited. I had always gone to super big schools so a small school was a nice change. Once I was done it was nightfall and I got ready for bed.
Later that night I found myself awake. Not just because I was nervous but I was also worried about what tomorrow would bring. Knowing what I knew would help me keep Bella safe but could also put her in danger. If I wasn't careful I could piss off the Cullens and I didn't want that. I didn't sleep the rest of the night and the next morning I yelled at Bella.
"Get up! We are to be late! You didn't sleep last night did you?" I asked.
"No but your not my mom, go away." She mumbled.
I ran downstairs and I was lucky to find an ice pack. I stuck it on Bella's skin and she screeched and fell off of her bed.
"Get ready and put that back in the freezer when you come down. Five minutes hurry up." I said and walked downstairs and grabbed the keys.
When I stepped outside it was raining. I already had my raincoat on and I picked my bag up and went out to the truck. I loved it. It was old and it looked good. I climbed in and buckled and then waited. The smell of the truck was tobacco gasoline, and peppermint. It was faint but it made it kinda feel like home. Bella stepped out the door and I saw the disgust on her face as she ran to the truck. As she climbed in I laughed.
"A little rain won't kill you." I said and she slammed the door.
"Take it easy on the truck." I said looking behind us and pulling out of the driveway.
It was a short, quiet drive to the school. I parked in front of the building that said Office and as I took the keys out of the ignition Bella was already gone. I sighed and ran after her and into the office. Bella has her schedule and continued on to her classes. I sighed and stepped up to the desk.
"Hi, I'm Elizabeth Swan." I said and the lady at the desk looked up and smiled.
"Oh, hello dear. I just helped your sister. Here is your schedule and a map. Good luck dear and have a good day." She said.
"Thank you." I said and left.
I went back to the truck and familiarized myself with everything and then went inside to my first class which was music and I was excited for it until I noticed them. Now, here was the hard part. Not thinking about what they were. Almost all of the Cullen siblings were in my first period class. Karma? Probably. Seeing as how I knew there every secret and what they where. I relaxed and let my mind go blank. I had to, I had to wait till lunch to make a scene. I knew that was a game changer for Bella so that's when I had to do it. I hung my coat up and went to the teacher to have her sign the form that would let the office know I got to my class. She quickly signed it and I picked a seat. There was only one place to sit and guess what, it was right next to Edward Cullen and his "family." I emptied my mind and sat down.
I didn't look over until I heard chatting next to me stop. I turned and saw Alice. Crap. She was having one of her visions. Yay! I was so screwed. Then the bell rang and the teacher started speaking. I turned my attention to her. Mainly we went over what we would do during the first semester and then she started handing out her rules and criteria and I couldn't be more excited but my mind kept wanting to wander to what Alice had scene and then I knew I had screwed up.
"Who the hell are you?" I heard a growl in my ear.
"Crap." I said as the bell rang and I made a run for it.
As I rounded the corner I ran into Angela. I apologized profusely.
"I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to do that. My first class was just weird." I said smiling.
"That's okay. I'm Angela. Your Elizabeth Swan right?" She asked.
"Yeah, I am." I said.
"Can I get a picture of you for the school newspaper. You and Isabella are the most exciting thing that's happened in two years." She said.
"Sure." I said and smiled and she snapped a lot of pictures.
"So it was nice to meet you. I hope we have a class together." I said and she smiled.
"So do I. See you later Liz." She said and I went off towards English.
We got a reading list and then Mr. Mason just drones on during the rest of class. After that lunch came to fast and I wasn't ready for what I had to do but I had no choice. Once the bell rang I waited for Bella to enter the cafeteria. I had to. I stepped inside and watched as Bella became intrigued by them and and then I made a decision to go to Bella's table but at last minute changed course for their table. They all watched me sit and were shocked. I looked and Bella was staring. Good. I turned back around, nervous but ready. Rosalie moved to get up and I glared at her.
"Sit down Rosalie. You need to hear what I have to say to." I said and oh man was she mad. I looked at Edward and he nodded at Rose and she sat down.
"Good. Now my sister Bella is watching which is good and one day she will fall in love with Edward. Let me finish and then I will answer questions. This year you all will put her in danger with your stupidity. Rose you become jealous because Bella can have a family and instead she wants to become one of you in the late ish future. Emmett your all for it and you get so worked up when she becomes a newborn. Alice you know she will be, just not now, but by next year. If that event still happens. Anyways, Alice you can see the future, Jasper I know you don't have control and don't worry about it. Whatever happens Bella doesn't blame you and neither do I. Edward, you fall in love with Bella but you break her in the most horrible ways, don't ever leave. One more thing. Months from now there will be a thunderstorm. You guys play baseball during these storms, don't take Bella with you. I find out you do it will be your ass handed to all of you. Yes I know your secret. I also know every little thing that will happen the next four years and it's not fun. So I'm going to smile and so are you. I am not a threat. I'm an ally and if you're smart it will stay that way? Understood? Just nod, and Rose, don't. I know your secret but not because anyone knows here. I can't explain it but I am your greatest ally. I know things that Alice won't see until it's too late. Please trust me. Edward you'll know if I'm lying. Just look-" I said and was cut off.
"Liz? What are you doing?" Bella asked from behind me.
My whole body tensed and then I relaxed. Then I turned around.
"Hi Bella. I was just saying hi. Almost all of us have choir together. This is Rosalie, Emmett, Alice, Jasper, and Edward. Guys this is my sister Bella." I said and turned and glared at them.
Edwards eyes turned dark.
Down boy, look away.
He looked away and rubbed his eyes.
"Hi Bella. Edward isn't acting weird he just has contacts that's all. They irritate his eyes sometimes." Alice said all Alice like.
I relaxed a little.
"Nice to meet you all, but I would like to borrow my sister for a bit if I could." Bella asked.
"Of course." Alice said.
I got up and followed Bella.
Edward! Take a few days. Your eyes got infected from the contacts and you have pink eye. Go hunt! Wait till after Biology though.
I looked back and he was nodding his head and I sighed.
Spread the story to the family it's more believable than a family emergency. That's the excuse your family always uses.
He looked shocked and then I was being yanked on and was out of the cafeteria.
"What the hell was that, Liz?" Bella asked.
"What? What was what?" I asked acting confused.
"Don't act confused. You weren't saying hi, or hello. You were tearing them a new one, literally. I'm not an idiot." Bella said and I shrugged my shoulders.
"Look Bella I swear I was just saying hello. I promise. They were just surprised because everyone leaves them alone and doesn't have the guts to talk to them." I said.
"Whatever. What's your next class?" She asked.
I pulled my schedule out and froze.
"Oh crap. It's Biology ĪĪ." I said and she groaned.
"I have the same class, let's go." She said as students filed out of the cafeteria.
By the time we got there, we were the last ones in and I remembered the fan and I purposely, accidentally knocked it down. Bella scoffed and I picked it up.
"I'm so sorry sir." I said and placed the fan back up but a different direction.
Avert your eyes!
Edward did and I relaxed and found a seat in the very back. I watched as Bella kept sniffing her hair as Edward scooted away.
Stop it.
He did. Mr. Banner started talking and Bella was still self-conscious and Edward was still a stone. Great. I thought to myself. What felt like hours later the bell rang and Edward was the first person out of the room. Bella stayed there but I went and got my slip signed and left knowing she'd rebound from this eventually. The rest of the day dragged on slowly. It was torture but I got all the signatures I needed and as I was heading for the office. I saw Bella and heard Edward talking to the office lady.
"There are no other openings. You have to stay in Biology ĪĪ, I'm sorry." She said.
He sighed and then his body went tense because he finally noticed Bella.
"Never mind then." He said and Bella sighed as she moved to let him leave.
Edward, remember what I said.
He didn't look back but Bella continued forward. Bella gave the receptionist her slip.
"How was your day dear? Did it go well?" She asked.
"It was fine." Bella said clearly lying and then I walked in and turned my slip in and led Bella outside.
"Let's go." I said and walked out to the truck, got in, fires her up and dreaded the next day which would be a bad day for Bella.
