like a never ending cycle (bella)

[Edward Cullen]

the evening hours were one of Edward’s favourite time of the day, well more so since he was transformed into what he is now. before that he doesn’t quite recall anything about what he liked or what he didn’t. for the longest while the vampires habits during the evening were very much the same since he’d first come in contact with Carlisle. mostly in the beginning the two of them would talk, Carlisle insisted that Edward continued on with his schooling, even if he opted not to attend, something he never objected to. when they grew into greater numbers everyone spent their time with their significant other, Edward well spent his time reading, learning or making his musical skills as perfect as he could get them. Edward turned out to be quite passionate about learning and filling his mind with as much as he could, following in Carlisle’s footsteps after reading most of the books and taking up learning multiple languages, something he found most useful when travelling with his family. though he loved it, there was only so much one could consume with endless sleepless nights, not that he was complaining Edward would have liked a bit of a change here and there.

ninety some odd years of basically the same routine and he’d finally got the chance to switch things up again, Bella was the one he could thank for that, even before she was a vampire he spent the night with her watching over her as she slept, making sure nothing harmed her in any way. that routine would never tire for him, being with Bella whenever he could was all he wanted. their marriage and her transformation gave him yet another change in his evening routine, and honestly if this one never changed there would be no complaint from him. the nights were reserved, in the little cottage, for time between the two of them. Edward had waited a long time for Bella and now that he had her, without having to worry about hurting her he couldn’t be happier. she was anything he’d hopped for and more, not only was she his world, but she’d given him a beautiful daughter. with their dangerous struggle to Bella’s transformation into a vampire the two of them deserved everything they had now, even if he was going to be having a werewolf for a son-in-law.

Edward hadn’t been to fond of that in the beginning, but that was to be expected since he wasn’t keen on the idea that the same wolf had been in love with his now wife. the whole thing was something to get use to and he was doing better then when he first found out, though he was happy to see that he wasn’t the only one that was sceptical about the whole ordeal, Bella had been on his side as well. he’d stopped vocally telling his opinion a decade ago when he knew it made his daughter happier, and eventually he allowed Renesmee to spend the nights with Jacob, that was hard for him but he’d done it. it also gave him and Bella more time to just themselves now that they were back into the school thing in Forks once again.

being preoccupied with Bella most of the evening he’d left any sort of school things that he had to get ready until the last possible minute. gathering his stuff together, he heard a low turned radio announce that it was six o’clock as he finished off with the supplies. after putting on an outfit, even without living with Alice, she some how managed to hand select the wardrobe he was use to putting on clothing he’d barely seen before. after he and Bella were both ready he ran with her to the white windowed house he’d spent a few years in his second time in Forks. walking through the kitchen, grabbing his keys he greeted his stand in parents, receiving a hug from Esme, his daughter and Jacob. leaving with Renesmee first, he pulled out of the garage in his sleek V8 Vantage, knowing the roads are meant for the Ferrari, he set out towards the school, there in mere minutes, this time around he’d be acting as his daughter’s twin, the only one that didn’t really have to change his name.

he walked with Nessie, making random chit-chat, they waited at their lockers like they always did for Jacob and Bella to arrive. walking down to his he past a sleeping Seth, who he greeted even though it didn’t wake him up. after putting his stuff in his locker he walked the few paces to where Bella’s was located and awaited her.

[Isabella Cullen]

It had been another typical endless night. Renesmee never spent time at home anymore, she was always at Jakes house, which was in a sense a relief, but also a worry for Bella. This was her baby after all, her biological one hundred percent REAL baby girl that she had raised right from the get go, of course Edward, Jake and everyone else helped as well, a lot of thanks can be put toward Rosalie. But that point still remained, she was still just a little girl in Bella's mind, and here she was marrying a boy who technically was a man and despite his youthful appearance should in all rights not be attracted her increasingly much younger daughter. But the point was fuzzy when you were immortal. The same could be said for herself and Edward. If you thought about it logically, he was a ninty something year old man when he fell in love with Bella, who felt completely and wholly the same at seventeen years of age. Immortality, it was the one thing that could bend age differences and make it okay to love someone years younger than yourself.

Nessie had been planning her wedding with her dear friend Claire, the day before, and had called Bella to let her know she was going to Jake's after. At least she still kept her parents informed, that was one good thing. One good thing that Bella never had the option of doing with Charlie or Renee. And really there was nothing Bella could do to keep her little girl at home, legally she was an adult the moment her birthday came allowing her to be eighteen, finally matching her appearance. That is when Jake and Renesmee announced their engagement, something about that whole thing reminded her all to much of when Bella married Edward, she just wished that Nessie would of waited a few more years yet, even though she was twenty now and just really planning the wedding, it still seemed too soon. After all Renesmee was PART human, she still had a heart that beat, she could wait for eternity and still experience everything as a human the way Edward wanted for Bella. But truth be told Renesmee was too much in love with Jacob to stay a Cullen for the rest of her eternal life.

This left Bella waiting at the door for her girl and best friend to come driving up in Jake's new car. It really had surprised her when Edward bought Jake a car, considering their past, that Bella had surely hoped they were mostly over now. Renesmee was simply radient, her cheeks were flushing madly, obviously she liked the car, or the driver. That point was clearly written on those oh so human rosy cheeks. She hugged her daughter tightly giving her a warm greeting before ushering her off towards her father whom now had to be her twin brother.

Bella wandered to the driver side of Edwards' newest silver and brown Volvo, she kissed her husband lightly on the lips, they were no longer cold like ice, but a wonderful room temperature much like her own. "I love you, see you soon." She winked at him before backing away from the car and headed back to link her arm with Jakes. Despite him being her future son in law, he was still her best friend first; which gave her privileges like arm linking, and stopped his urge of trying to kiss Bella. So really this whole thing was finally working the way it was supposed to, for the last twenty years, their friendship had been pretty much flawless.

"Alright Jacob Black, or sorry, Jake Wolfe…. We should be heading to school now in our so well blended cars." She rolled her eyes and started to laugh slightly at the thought of them actually BLENDING IN well with the rest of Forks. The Cullen's always stood out when she was a human, and now, when she was a vampire, they still kept up that reputation of standing out with the crowd, if only with their cars.

She hopped into Edwards old Volvo, and started the engine. She had flatly refused to get a new car coming back to Forks, over the years she had gotten many a new car for each new year of grade eleven and twelve, but this year, she wanted something less obvious. The old Volvo suited her perfectly here.

Once she parked her car in the school parking lot she ushered Jacob out of his car. This was a first, she was sort of excited. The last time she attended Forks High, Jake was still in high school in La Push, so the idea of going to school with her friend in her home town thrilled her. "Jake, lets move it, they are probably waiting."

She just ran over her lines again, they were always the same the first month, her name was well, different than usual, and she really hated it as a matter of fact. Why did her mother have to have such a stupid maiden name? Now she saw why Renee vouched for Swan before changing it to Dwyler, and never wanted to go back to her maiden name in between. Bella Cullen , now in Forks was known as…

"Izzie Higginbotham!" She turned her head and glared at Jake who was laughing, basically tearing at the seems. So her name was funny, that didn't mean he had to do that all the time now. He had blurted her name out about five times since getting to Forks, just trying it out… "Don't make me hit you, idiot." She said before her golden eyes shot back right in front of her.

"Hey Edward." She smiled sweetly noting that he was standing right in front of her and Jake's lockers with Nessie now cooing over her 'boyfriend'. "Honestly Honey, don't you think you should change your first name? I mean, Cullen is a well known name from the last time we were here, no one is likely to forget. You can still change it now… I just don’t want to get into a bad situation." She said nearly whispering in his ear as to not be heard by any humans who happened to wander by, all of them staring in awe at Edward and Bella, or Jake and Renesmee.

She turned her head towards a blonde girl who strangely resembled Jessica Stanley, but seemed a bit like Mike Newton as well... Before wanting to puke at the thought of them getting back together she smiled at the girl who just widened her eyes and looked back in front of her almost scared.

[Edward Cullen]

Edward probably could have made his way through this school with his eyes closed, he traveled it so much before. he even stuck to the same parking space, only because it was positioned close enough to the entrance to the lot that he could get out without too much of a wait in traffic. his car actually stood out this time around, last time in forks he didn’t want to be noticed too much so the Volvo suited him well. now Bella insisted on using that car, he was just going to get her a new one when he bought Jacob one but listened when she advised him not to. he’d known there’d be a shocking response to buying his soon to be son-in-law a car, let alone the one he chose. he wouldn’t have been rude leaving Jacob to buy his own even if he wasn’t on the good terms he was with Jake now. Edward had pretty much gotten over the past, for the most part, all but the fact that his young daughter was getting married rather soon. the fact that Bella and Jake were just friends now made him getting along with the werewolf a lot easier for him.

as he waited, after getting his school stuff situated in his locker, Edward went over everything he had to remember while trying to tune out everyone else in his head. that was one thing about new places that Edward wasn’t so fond of. he had to get use to everyone’s thoughts all over again and it being he first day everyone’s mind was buzzing with everything and anything they did over the summer. his lines for this time in forks weren’t nearly as complicated as what say Bella’s were, his name stayed the same this time. the one thing he had to get use to was acting like his daughter’s twin brother. sure they had a sibling sort of relationship at times but it was different to get use to. standing casually at Bella’s locker he moved periodically as he looked around the halls at the other people in it.

hearing Jacob and Bella’s arrival, well more Jacob’s knowing Bella would be arriving with him Edward turned his head in the direction she’d be coming in. Edward smiled at her when she greeted him, “Hey”

[/color] he said doing his best to ignore anything that involved thoughts from Nessie and Jacob even if it didn’t work to well. “I was thinking about that” he said keeping his voice just loud enough for her to hear him. “I think you’re right, it might be cutting it a bit too close. I wouldn’t want us to have to move just because my name was recognized. Do you think Anthony would work or something else?” he asked her, looking up and to the side when he heard someone thing about himself, Bella, Jake and Nessie. it was going to take some getting use to.

Edward saw Bella turn her head towards someone in the hall and his eyes followed her path until his eyes rested on a quite familiar seeming face. Turning back to Bella he smiled at her, “Yes, apparently the two of them married at some point.” he said knowing Bella knew he was talking about Jessica and Mike. he figured their relationship was a bit doomed from the beginning but obviously he’d been wrong. He’d glanced back at the blonde girl in time to see her reaction to him and Bella looking in her direction, they’d made her nervous, intimidated almost that was pretty much written on her face. he turned his head back to his ‘girlfriend’ the term he’d have to be using for school. Edward figured he’d stop looking at the poor girl so she could over come her frozen like state.

“which class are you heading to first?” Edward asked her returning his voice to its normal level. he was, in a sense not so bored by another year of high school. it was much easier to put up with now that Bella could join him in it. though he didn’t think it was all that fair that Alice got to be graduated this time around, the two of them looked the same age, even if she was turned two years after he was. actually the fact that all his siblings got out of the high school façade didn’t seem fair, but he’d get over it quickly. it would be nicer to be in school instead of pretending to be looking for a career or through college applications. though he would enjoy college again, maybe he’d broach that subject later on.[/blockquote][/blockquote][/size][/font]

[Isabella Cullen]

She nodded in agreement with Edward, and mainly herself since she had been pretty much hounding him and Esme about how unsafe it was for him to keep Edward as a first name. "Thank you! Finally victory!" she gloated before turning serious, "So Just go into the office and tell them that your Middle and First name's got switched around, It will be no problem Ed.. er Anthony. Things will be fine! And yes, Anthony works fine. Hey I have to deal with Izzie… you know how much I hate that name…" she said rolling her eyes thinking about that whole name, it was not her idea of a good alias, but it was bomb proof as far as she could see.

Apparenly Edward had caught her glances, and so did the girl, as the puking feeling started to resurface when he commented as well. Had her emotions been that well written on her face? Usually it took him a while to figure out what she thought… She only wondered what the girl thought of the clearly disgusted look on Bella's face. "I hope she doesn't hate me yet!" Bella was always one for not wanted to keep up the whole odd man out Cullen thing going. After all she sort of got the Cullen's friends in grade twelve the last time when she was still human. At every school since then she put a conscious effort in to being the outgoing talkative one of the group and forcing Alice to talk to people. Between the two of them people actually starting liking the Cullens. But there were still a few who thought they were weird and out of it. So she couldn't please everyone.

One thing that got her sort of happy though was the thought that she might be able to go see Charlie, but she still looked eighteen so that might cause a bit of a problem. Maybe Jake could go talk to him again first before she dropped by? She shook the thought from her mind for now, after all she had been writing and calling him every month or so. But Edward just said something, so she really should reply.

"Huh?" she looked confused for a moment before glancing over at the two love birds. "Hey, Jake! Nessie! Cool it!" she said in irritated mothering sort of tone. She was not exactly fond of seeing her best friend acting that way around her daughter, of course she knew it happened all the time, and most of the time she couldn't stop it. But it was the first day of school, she was sort of hoping for a bit of class from the two of them before they went full out into a make-out session in the hallways everyday as they had done in the past. "Sorry, what class? Umm, I believe Chemistry." She eyed him with a sneaky little grin. That was the one class she sort of was looking forward too, especially since Edward was in it this year as well. After all, it was the place the two Cullen's first met.

[Edward Cullen]

Using Anthony would be different for Edward. that part of his name hadn’t been used well, he figured since he was actually human. no-one in his family now used it so he figured his biological parents must have at some point. Edward laughed when she gloated, she’d be trying to get him and Esme to budge on the topic. “It shouldn’t take too much effort, I’ll go during lunch, the new secretary is already be bothered with class changes. It’s going to take some getting use to. Hmm, yes I feel bad for you about that. I may steal Ella from Jacob” Edward said not being too fond of the Izzie name, it was just a bit too odd in his opinion even if it could be taken from Isabella.

usually Edward would have had to ask Bella of her thoughts, but having seen the girl shortly after the look on Bella’s face he easily put two and two together. once you saw it, there was some Mike and some Jessica in her, an interesting mix for sure. “She’s a little in shock at the moment and she doesn’t hate you. just a bit, curious, as to why we were just staring at her.” Edward said looking back at Bella. Edward was still less friendly towards the humans when they all went to school, it seemed to be a habit of his with humans. he’d been trying to work on that, though he wasn’t any where near as out going as what Bella and Alice were recently. maybe he’d do a better job being in the familiar setting of forks once again. though he’d only spoken to the humans because Bella was friends with them. but since Bella was really the only other vampire attending school with him, if she went off to talk to one of them, he’d accompany her and see how it went.

Edward liked the idea that they’d come back to Forks, despite the fact that it could be a dangerous move on their part since they hadn’t been gone long enough for the people they knew to be gone. Forks just seemed to be that place that the Cullen family liked to return to, this was already their third time here, well for him at least, second time for a few of the others

he didn’t have to turn around to see what Bella was talking about when she spoke to Jake and Nessie, he could see it and hear what was going on though he wished he couldn’t. “Thank you, you saved me from having to say something.” he said, his tone probably would have mimicked hers, though while giving Jacob a look. that he probably could have gotten away with since Nessie was suppose to be his twin, and from what he gathered siblings didn’t like it when the other was publically displaying their affection for someone. of course it should have been expected, they did it every time they all attended school. his attention was brought back to Bella when she spoke. he nodded when she said chemistry. “Right, that should be fun” he said, his lips forming a smile of their own. He was looking forward to chemistry, it had been a little bit since he taken the subject formally in school, plus he shared the class with Bella.

[Isabella Cullen]

She smiled curtly towards her husband as he mentioned changing his name during lunch. "So if anyone asks, I would suggest saying Edward Cullen is a relative of some sort.. perhaps your father? Or Uncle?" She really wanted this to work out properly, and it was a major risk coming back her, and they all knew that. In a few ways Bella wished they hadn't come home yet, one being she would have to go see Charlie. Secondly being that everyone wasn't dead yet, so it made for extra precaution.

Bella felt slightly reassured when Edward read the girls mind, allowing Bella to know that she was just nervous about the way the two of them were staring at her, which would plainly scare her if she were still human, having two new people standing there, not blinking, staring at you and looking like they are a bout to puke. "So long as I didn't offend her. That’s the last thing I need, is to deal with her parents."

All Bella wanted to do right now was get to class, get Jake off her daughter, and get the wedding over with. Though she knew all that would happen in its own time, a few things taking longer than she would have liked. "No problem honey, I know it's hard for you." She gave him a wink before wrapping an arm around his waist and kissing him lightly on the cheek. Then she turned her attention to Renesmee who was plainly staring at her whilst Jake muttered in her ear. Bella raised an eyebrow at the girl as if to say 'No funny business', in that loving motherly way that she always did, yet still looked like a close friend keeping an eye on her boyfriends sister.

"Perhaps we should just leave the two of them to themselves, and wake Seth up. Apparently Jake had him out late again last night." She sighed. "Remind me to talk to Jake about that.. some of these boys are still faking school, they can't be up patrolling all night long. I don't even know how he does it, he has to sleep still to survive." She rolled her eyes tapping Seth on the shoulder as they walked by, "Wake up Sethy!" she said in his ear hoping to stop the snoring wolf as he slept face planted onto his locker door.

[Edward Cullen]

Edward nodded, he could easily get use to the Anthony thing, just as long as someone didn’t try calling him Tony or something along those lines. “I think I’ll go with father, in case someone remembers something about my appearance.” he said hoping that wouldn’t happen. Edward would be keeping a close listen to the thought of the teenagers in the school to make sure nothing about the Cullen’s was too incriminating for the family. he’d definitely have his work cut out for him, until he worked out a system or figured out who was friends with who.

Edward was glad to see that the Newton-Stanley girl didn’t have a family inherited grudge against him and Bella just yet. he figured she didn’t know who the new group of kids were, surely she’d have an idea after going home and mentioning him and Bella too her parents. “I don’t think being offended even crossed her mind, but if it does, it’ll be such a delayed reaction she forget the meaning.” he said with a low chuckle. “Yes, dealing with her parents wouldn’t be all that great.” Edward said, he could go many more years without having to see Mike again, not that fond of him still.

having Jake and Nessie standing behind him with barely any space between them was something that had him thinking the school should have a set of lockers on the opposite end of the school. it would make it easier for him to focus on someone else’s thoughts instead of hearing his daughter’s and fiancées. “Very difficult” he agreed, his eyes closing for a moment feeling her arm wrap around his waist. opening his eyes in time to she her wink causing him to smile as he draped his arm around her shoulders and placing a kiss on her temple. Edward turned his head towards the love birds, eyeing Jacob with slightly narrowed eyes. the look could easily be taken as ‘you’re too close to my sister’

“I think that’s a good idea, doesn’t seem like their going to change their positions any time soon anyway.”

[/color] Edward said, shaking his head slightly side to side. “I will, poor Seth. Kids got so much energy during the night and just crashes in the morning. his sleeping pattern needs to get switched back to normal for these months at least.” he said as they walked towards Seth and Bella tapped him on the shoulder. laughing slightly as a snore came from the wolf, Edward reached across his wife and rapped his knuckles on one of the lockers, hoping the sensitive wolf hearing would pick it up enough to startle him since his ear was against the lockers. “I think he’d be better off at hone today.”[/blockquote][/blockquote][/size][/font]

[Isabella Cullen]

"You might be right." Bella nodded in agreement, thinking about poor Seth. He was so keen on coming to school, he had been trying to talk some of the other wolf boys into enrolling at Forks as well, mainly Quil. Claire was trying hard as well, for some reason she was as keen as the rest to take a stab at the whole going back to high school thing, and for the most part she could probably pass it off, even though she looked far older than Bella and Edward, she was finally matched up to Quil in years physically.

Claire, being Renesmee's best friend, was so excited about the thought of going to school with her friend, but of course she wanted the accompaniment of her immortal husband, Bella was sure she was the reason Seth had been pushing the La Push boys. She just shook her head at the thought as a small smirk appeared on her face. So much was exactly as she had left it so many years ago. Forks was defiantly one of those places she would never forget, and always have a weakness for.

Her thought then strayed back to the past topic at hand, who they were this time around. "So your father was Edward Cullen, so I am taking it your mother was Isabella Cullen?" she rose and eyebrow in his direction, everyone in Forks knew that Bella and Edward were married before she turned. "I wonder what ever happened to them, they were such nice people. Why on earth would they leave their only son, and his twin sister all on their own? Perhaps a car accident? No." she answered immediately, they couldn't be dead, Charlie would still talk about Bella, she was sure of it. "Well, perhaps they just didn't get along, got a divorce, and Edward got in a car accident, perhaps Bella couldn't take it? Just left? Everyone knew how unstable she was when Edward left her before." Of course she had to talk about them both as though they were different people, being the surroundings they were in. Poor Anthony and Vanessa, lost by their father, abandoned by their mother, raised by a single foster mother. Such a hard life, sometimes she envied that idea, the idea of a normal existence, but then again, Bella chose to be a vampire far before it was thrust upon her. She finally got the thing she craved for most, she couldn't be regretting it. No, never, she just yearned to feel like a human, if only for a moment. She was slowly starting to miss it, something she never thought would happen.

Of course she would never miss the ageing idea, or the fact that ageing meant living without her family, her daughter, and Edward. That would all be mandatory change over as well if she had to go back to being a human. Her human life was far to reckless for her liking, and therefore tended not to dwell on it much. Her vampire existence was far calmer since Nessie started growing up, and they got set into their path of high schools again. The only thing Bella feared was seeing Charlie.

"How well do you think Alice could do at making me look older? Say old enough to be thirty nine?" It was a random question, but Charlie would be furious if Bella didn't go see him once in a while whilst they were in Forks, and he would find out, she knew that. And Charlie was on a need to know basis, and she didn't really want to tell her mortal father that she had been an immortal for the last twenty years of their lives.

[Edward Cullen]

Edward nodded. He knew Seth had been trying to convince a few more La Push boys into coming to school in Forks. He could hear him going over different approaches when he had some down time, not patrolling. It would make things a bit more familiar form Seth and Jake. Edward had thought he caught something about Claire wanting to do the whole high school thing again, despite being one of few mortals surround by immortals, though he supposed he couldn’t blame her.

Edward figure a good amount of persuasion could get the others to come over to Forks, if just for the sake of high school. Of course there was a downside to more of the boys from La Push entering Forks High, only a minor downside. The smell of wolf would be more enhanced but it was definitely something one could get use to, since the family had basically lived with Jacob for twenty some odd years. Glancing over at Bella he caught her smirk, and not being able to read her thoughts, his curiosity spiked again, but it was nothing new he was always wondering what was on her mind, even when he wasn’t aware of it. His eyebrow raised slightly before dropping seconds later deciding it was probably nothing.

He’d always thought it was weird when you had to talk about yourself like you were in fact talking about someone else but it was necessary and would probably help him out at lunch with the secretary. Edward listened to the story that she was creating before he would comment or make any sort of adjustments if he felt they were needed. He nodded, listening to what could have been a life for him if he’d have in fact not been plague with the Spanish flu. Edward had thought about that sort of thing in the first couple of decades of his immortal lifestyle, now those thoughts rarely crossed his mind. He had perfected, almost, his reaction whenever the mention of his leaving her those many years ago, so he rarely flinched at the mention of it now. “Yes, Edward and Isabella Cullen, nice people and good parents for the first couple of years.”

[/color] He concurred with her, “Divorce, no I don’t think that fits, too inseparable for that. Mere rumour speculated by my father being away on business a lot.”[/color] Edward said looking over at Bella, “But yes a car accident, it’s no secret how dad liked to drive recklessly. It was tough on all of us, our mother never bounced back though. Said me and Vanessa looked too much like our father.”[/color] he proposed. It would easily be believed by the people here, humans were so easily convinced, their imaginations helped with that. Of course their imaginations could have worked against the Cullen family but that was never the case.

Formulating storylines was always something that Edward took part in with Esme and Carlisle. It was very easy when it was just the three of them, but more interesting every time the family grew. It was the repeating of a life every five or six years that got to Edward. He would have given it up, to age with Bella and grow old when that was an option. But now that she was an immortal as well that would never be an option.

Bella’s question took him by surprise, the only person that could do that to him. Usually he could come up with an answer before he even heard the question asked verbally too him. But with Bella he had to wait for her to actually say it, not that he minded, he liked normal conversation after it lacked for many years. “I’m sure if you gave her enough time, she could get her hands on some of the stuff that Hollywood uses to age people. I think it would be quite possible.”[/color] he said knowing his sister wouldn’t stop until she got it right. “You know once you bring the subject up you’ll be her doll again so she can test out all ages.”[/color] he said with a laugh, Alice loved to dress Bella up. “Why?”[/color] he asked casually.[/blockquote][/blockquote][/size]

[Isabella Cullen]

She listened whilst Anthony made adjustments to his well thought out history. They would have to be sure to tell Vanessa when the chance came about, Jake Wolfe as well. So that was that, the biggest problem was solved, Edward was Anthony, and Bella would be known to all as a cowardly mother who couldn't raise her children. She hated to think of herself that way, but it was the only way that she could think of as making it possible. And if Charlie asked why she was back, well, she came to see him. And ignore the fact that everyone else had come back. Bella was "Visiting".

Now her thoughts strayed from their histories and futures and ventured over to that of their daughter and son in laws. She did wish she knew what Renesmee was thinking sometimes, it would make her mind at ease more, instead of having to make Edward fish through brains. She knew that every time the idea was mentioned briefly on when they were leaving next, or where they were going, Jake got uptight. Renesmee seemed more willing about the idea, but she had a feeling that might change. Jake was getting sick of following a family of vampires around, you didn't have to read anyone's mind to see that. He loved them all, there was no question, but he had just taken back Alpha again, something told Bella that he might not want to leave.

That thought upset her a little, even thought it was just a guess. She didn't want to be separated from her daughter, and knew Renesmee would stay with her then -husband in La Push. This was going to take some investigation, she was determined that Sam Uley needed to be talked to. Yes she was jumping the gun by about three years or so, but it would probably take her that long to get the idea cemented into her brain. Sam of course was not the leader of both packs, but he had been there far longer than Jacob Black. Therefore he was the man to talk to, as was Leah Clearwater, the former Alpha, and now Beta of Jacobs pack. That may not be a pleasant trip, being that Sam still wasn't fond of the Cullens, or Bella all that much for all the trouble she had caused them all in the past. But things had to be said, and dealt with. So she would take Seth home after school, no other way around it.

"Yeah, okay, how soon do you think Alice can do that?" she said calmly, noting back to her previously asked question. " I need to see Charlie soon."

[Edward Cullen]

Edward ran over his history in his head, it was a habit of his when they started over again. Each time he’d go over the theory, story, and look at it from different angels seeing which ways he could find fault in the storyline as if seeing if the humans could find something wrong with what the family came up with. Usually he probed the subject more so then what any human would take time to do. But it helped with the scanning people’s thoughts daily. If even one thing seemed off one day, he’d consult Alice before anyone else to see if they had anything to worry about. The one thing he didn’t like about the storyline this time was it painted Bella to be a bit weak, which he knew she was anything but, she’d proven that many times over, surprising him some of those times, not many times thought.

Edward really thought about things way too much at times, it was always worse when they started over. But he stopped himself from obsessing too much right now about how well people would receive their story. Bella would probably relay the story to their daughter at lunch when he was dealing with the secretary. Renesmee was a topic now that caused him to worry at times, more so now that she was old enough to marry Jacob. He would have liked to delay the process by a couple of years, not because he thought she was too young but because it had all happened so fast. Sure he may be a bit more welcoming to the idea if it were to be with someone else she was marrying. For the most part he’d learned to tolerate Jacob, even like him to an extent but the complexity of their history wasn’t just something one could forget. He knew Jacob was still dealing with their past a little bit, but they made remarkable progress since they were basically holding civil conversations with one another.

Sure there was another undeniable fact that he couldn’t ignore. He wasn’t really ready to let her go. It was a very father-like way to be thinking, but he still considered her to be his little girl, even if they looked the same age. She was also, not only his only daughter, but his only child and having her marrying Jacob she’d be taken his last name. She wouldn’t have to come with them when they moved again if she didn’t want to. But he didn’t want to think about that. When that subject was to be broached he knew where Jacob would stand, leaving his pack was difficult in the first place, so that right there would start an argument with him and Jacob. He’d see that coming and put it off as much as he could. He wouldn’t want to bring up any hostility between the family until it was necessary since the two of them arguing would bother his wife and daughter, and he knew that when he and Jacob argued it was never calmly. Edward would at least try to make it calmly, maybe he’d discuss this at some point with Bella.

“Well that depends on if she’s paying attention right now or has her mind some where else. A week at the most, but I’m being generous to her. Getting her hands on the make up will probably take the longest. But I’m sure she wouldn’t be above heading to Hollywood and ‘borrowing’ some from a make-up artist.”

[/color] Edward said with a slight chuckle, he knew how Alice could be when it came to having to get her hands on something, like cars for one. “I’m sure he’ll be quite happy to see you”[/color] Edward said looking over at her. He was glad that Bella could keep in touch with her father during all these years, and the fact that Charlie knew somewhat what was going on, mainly about the wolves since he didn’t want to know about the vampire part. Edward didn’t really blame him there, that would be a lot to take in.[/size][/blockquote][/blockquote]

[Isabella Cullen]

She nodded as Edward spoke of Alice and her ways of commandeering makeup from Hollywood. Bella came up with the assumption that she would have to wait a while before she would be able to go see Charlie. The other troublesome topic was Renesmee; would she go see Charlie too? She thought it was a little much to ask Charlie to come to the wedding, he wouldn't understand, and he would misinterpret Jake horribly wrong out of it all. So it was better off for everyone if he didn't know about the wedding or the fact that Renesmee and Jacob were now an item and had been so for many years now.

She sighed knowing that the time was drawing near to boredom in Chemistry, so like a robot she walked into the classroom and handed the teacher a slip that introduced her as a new person to the class, though the class was not yet in session. She wandered past the very same fan, that for some reason had not moved in twenty two years, and it blew her hair in her face just as the last time. She glanced back at Anthony with a small smile waiting to see if he would react like the last time that happened, though she already knew that answer.

She was one of the first few into the classroom, and was therefore allowed to pick a seat for herself, instinctively she wandered right over to their last seat. She pulled out the stool and seated herself, adjusting her crest on her chest that she wore as a necklace, much like Alice and Rosalie. She waited momentarily for her husband to finish talking to the new teacher, or at least, new to Bella.

Once he was seated beside her she snuggled closer to him. "So, do you want to kill me like last time? Or am I okay being this close to you?" she said it quietly so no one would hear.

[Edward Cullen]

If Edward knew Alice as well as he knew he did, she was probably already scheming up a way to get her hands on some of the make up she would need. That was if she was paying attention to her visions, usually something she did. Edward knew that Bella wanted to see Charlie, they grew close when she’d first moved here all those many years ago so it was only natural he figured. He just hoped that Renesmee wouldn’t want to see Charlie, not because he didn’t think she should see him but because he figured she was excited enough about the wedding that she would say something Charlie. And since he only knew very little it would be a complete misunderstanding which wasn’t something that they had to put Charlie through. But Bella, he felt needed to see her father.

Edward was at a standstill on where he stood with chemistry. It was something he’s done many times over so much so he could probably write a textbook on the stuff. But that wasn’t anything new since he’d repeated everything so often he could almost guess the lesson plans. But he decided not to focus on that right now, it would depress him before class thinking about how many times he’s done that. Though when he walked into the room there was a smile on his lips, the place hadn’t changed one bit. Which surprised him since they usually changed things up a bit. It was a little disappointing. He waited behind Bella while she gave her slip to the teacher, his talk would be a little longer, the name switch.

Just as he was about to give his little explanation something else grabbed his attention. His head lifted and he looked at Bella, the fan had taken her hair again and the familiar scent caught him again. Though this time he had a much better reaction then last time, no longer arguing with himself on whether or not he should kill her or how he should. He wasn't sure why it affected him like this now, he was basically around her everyday, all day. The scent never changed and he let himself get caught up in it long enough for the teacher to tap his shoulder. Turning back to the guy he took a step back and easily explained that his name was switched and to call him Anthony.

That finished he cleared his head a bit, though he’d be distracted now the whole class just like the last time. Edward followed in her footsteps and took the same seat he’d occupied the first time they met. He took his seat on the stool, having moved it a bit closer to her. He gave a small soft chuckle at her comment, “Kill you? No not this time.”

[/color] he said smiling keeping his voice low like hers, “You could come closer if you’d like”[/color] Edward said placing his arm around her while they waited for everyone else.
