Chapter 2- Discussion With Mom and First Week with Edward Cullen

Liz Swan

The next day was good, well except that Bella almost made us late. After we got to school we went our separate ways and I was relieved that Edward was gone.

"Did you guys spread around the story I suggested?" I asked Alice.

"We did. People are surprised and haven't quit talking about it though." She said.

"Good. It's something that will corroborate your story considering what happened yesterday." I said.

"Whatever Liz, now go away." Rosalie sniped.

"Fine, bitch." I said and pulled away.

Alice laughed but I just ignored them after that. Class flew by and so did the first half of the day. When lunchtime rolled around I sat with the Cullens again. Rose visibly growled.

"Rose? Really? You're stuck with me and besides I figure you would want to keep and eye on me. Keep your friends close and enemies closer." I said and she actually relaxed.

I started eating when I heard stomping and then a tap on my shoulder. I turned around. It was Bella.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"What the hell are you doing?" Bella asked.

"Bella, what I do with the people I'm trying to make friends with isn't your business or a big deal. Why? What's your problem?" I asked being kinda rude.

"My problem? You are being you! Being Liz! You're not even my sister! Why do you always hang out with the people I want to hang out with! Why?" She said and I got really mad but tried to stay calm.

"I am your sister Bella. If you want to hang out with the Cullens ask them not me but don't yell at me for making friends with people." I said fuming.

"No your not Liz! You're fucking adopted." She said and my world froze.

I looked up at her and tried to laugh it off.

"Bull. I'm not adopted. I'm your sister. Mom and Dad would've told me." I said and Bella laughed.

"No they wouldn't! You aren't blood related to me! I found your adoption papers before we left Moms." She said and my whole world started spinning.

I hated her. She was a bitch and she didn't know what the hell I was trying to do to protect her. I stood up and she stepped back. I stepped forward and hugged her.

"I still love you Bella, no matter what you say or do." I said and pulled back and I saw the surprise and then the tears.

I turned around and left. I didn't feel like eating anymore. I went home and no one could really blame me. I left Bella to fend for herself. I went home looked for something to cook and found nada. I made a list and then waited in my room. I did the little homework I got today and then I checked my email and I had three from my Mom. Bella probably had more.

"Elizabeth," my mom wrote…

Write to me as soon as you land.I want to make sure you arrived okay. Is it raining? I am almost packed for Florida. I'm so excited. Oh! Phil says hi. Mom.

I smiled. At least she cared to actually check on us. I went to the second one.

Elizabeth? Why haven't I gotten a reply? I expect that from Bella,hair brained as she is but you are always on top of things. Email me soon. Mom.

I groaned. Me I was supposed to be the perfect child? Of course. I wasn't actually hers. The last one was from this morning.

Mom! Okay! I'll respond!

I sent that and then started a new email.

I'm fine Mom. School is okay. It's raining and Bella and I are getting along just fine. I have a truck. Dad bought it and I love it! I love you Mom but I'm not always glued to a computer screen. I'll write again soon.

Liz.

Ugh! I sat on my bed and layed down. It was just my luck that shit would start to go horribly wrong the minute I started interfering with "destiny." Oh well though. Bella deserves better. She deserved something normal. Time passed so fast while I was inside my own head. I didn't realize Bella was home till she came a knocking on my door. I got up and locked it. I grabbed my phone and called Dad.

"Hey Dad? When will you be home? I wanna do some shopping but wanted to wait to find out what you want for dinner tonight. It will my treat. Can you call me back. Love you, bye." I said and Bella knocked on my door again.

I wasn't ready to face her.

"Liz, let me in." She begged.

I unlocked the door, and opened it. I didn't let her in though.

"I'm listening." I said.

"I'm sorry about school today. I was just so upset." Bella said.

I sighed.

"Bella, to be honest there is only one reason I am even hanging with the Cullens. They talk about killing and are obsessed with each other and they hide it. When they get together it gets pretty gruesome. You should hear them in choir. It's gross. One of these days it could backfire. I'm your older sister. I just want to dig a little deeper before you hang with them okay? I love you." I said and pulled her into a hard hug.

"Do they really scare you that much?" She asked.

"Yes but we can't go telling anyone yet. Dad likes Doctor Cullen and I haven't met him but I don't think he's dangerous from I heard he just takes in troubled kids. Please Bella let me finish this and you'll be the first one to anything if you want, I promise." I said and she nodded her head and hugged me back.

I pulled away and smiled.

"Okay now we have to go shopping. Their is nothing in this house." I said.

Bella laughed, "That's Dad for ya."

I laughed and we both left and got into the truck. We drove to the police station and Bella ran inside happy. She came back out laughing with Dad. I rolled my window down.

"What's so funny?" I asked.

They both started laughing again.

"Liz, there's a jar that is labeled grocery money on the fridge." Dad said.

"What? I missed it? You've got to be kidding." I said and Bella started laughing again.

"Get in!" I said and she ran to the side of the truck and got in.

I stuck my tongue out at our Dad and drove back home. Bella ran in and grabbed the money and we went shopping.

When dad got home dinner was finishing up. "Alright dinners ready." I said.

They both came running. I laughed.

"I hope you guys like it." I said.

"Are you kidding? That's one thing I will always love. Your cooking." Bella said and went to the living room.

"You didn't do anything crazy did you?" He asked cautiously.

"No Dad. I'm not mom. I can actually cook." I smiled and winked.

He grinned and took his plate and sat down to eat. I stayed in the kitchen and ate mine. The Cullens didn't come up for the rest of the week but that rumor I spread kinda spread like a wildfire one day and kinda bit me in the ass but I did it for a reason. Edward stayed gone all week which was good. The weekend went whoosh. It was gone and then it was Monday and it was snowing. Bella ran inside. Snow isn't her thing which I respect. The morning past and when lunch came, dun, dun, dun. Edward was there. I sat with Bella.

"Now you decide to sit with us." Angela said.

"I'm sorry. I was just trying to get to know them that's all." I said and that shut her up.

Lunch ended and we went to Biology. I was a couple seats behind Edward and Bella but I kept a close eye. Bella ignored him. He started talking.

I caught bits and pieces. They continued on through class and Bella was getting irritated. She raised her voice.

"Hey! You don't have to be a jerk. I told you I was right." She hissed and swatted his shoulder.

"So, why should Bella not get a chance with the microscope Edward." Mr. Banner said.

"Bella got three out of the five right." Edward said.

"Were you in advanced placement in Phoenix Bella?" He asked.

"Yes." Bella said and he nodded and walked away.

It was silent between the two after that. Edward tried to talk to him but Bella kept shutting him down. I sighed. Good. I thought. Edwards head turned towards me. I smiled and waved and looked away. Mr. Banner called everyone's attention and Bella ignored Edward. I was relieved. I saw Edward look at me from the corner of his eye and I let my mind go blank. The rest of the school day was uneventful. We went home.
