Chapter One : Packing Up and Riding Out
"Oh no she did not!", Rosalie said with a bit of a snap to her tone.
"Were moving ." Alice almost mumbled. I could totally tell how speechless Alice was right now. Her pretty light brownish eyes were stiff with shock and filled to the brim with new come sadness.
I couldn't believe it either. It was just a year ago we moved into this tiny old thing we called are home. Come to think of it, it was just last month I actually started unpacking. What a waste of time.
Before my mother, Esme, could even tell us the reason behind this mishap I already knew why. It was all thanks to her new beloved boy- , fiancé that we were going to be forced to move...AGAIN!
I had already moved once and that was when we were moving from a small town in Missouri to the big city of Chicago in Illinois.
I had to leave my bestest friend in the whole world that day. Courtney. We had been friends ever since Kindergarten. And are friendship just kept on growing and growing all the way till the middle of my seventh grade year. That was when we first moved, to Illinois.
Don't get me wrong moving then was a very educational learning experience for me. But now I was 15, Alice was 16 going on 17 in a few months, and this was Roses last year of high school. Her being 18 just of last Saturday.
I felt so bad for Rosalie. She had to move during her last year of school and on top of that she also had to make new friends. Not that it was that hard for her the first time around.
" Guys , you know I wouldn't do this if it wasn't the best thing for are family. But we are going to be one big happy family one of these days and you girls need to get used it. " my mom was one of the sweetest people, " You girls also need to get used to the fact of having boys around the house as well. I would sugge-"
" Don't you mean 'a man' around the house ? " Alice interrupted.
" No." are mother replied still very serious.
"What do you mean 'no' !? I thought it was just going to be me, you, Bella, Alice, and Carlisle?" Rosalie asked. She was so out of the loop right now.
"No, I meant what I said girls. We're going to be living with Carlisle and his three." Mom retorted, she was trying so hard right now not to start burst out laughing. I could see it in her eyes.
"His three..." I asked. I hadn't noticed that I hadn't said a thing after mom told us about her 'little' surprise. (Yeah, what mother in the whole entire world do you think would tell her three daughters all at once that,
A.) She was engaged.
B.) We were going to have to move.
C.) The man that we were going to live with also resided with three other children.
AND finally
D.) WE WERE GOING TO HAVE TO MOVE AGAIN!!!!
Ugh! could this day get any worse?!
And if you don't know any mom like this congrats to you. And please use your non-packing up time to pray for me. I really need it.)
"What do you think silly's? Boys. Carlisle has three sons. I thought I told you guys this already?" my mom asked.
"It doesn't look like it " I stated as I gazed around the room at my two sisters and into my mother's eyes.
"Oh, I thought I did," my mother said," Well at least you all know now and aren't so surprised when we actually started to move in."
"Yeah, what a day that would have been." Rosalie said, trying to be sarcastic.
"While were still on the subject how old are they?" Alice hedged. I could see how her tongue put a little more emphases on the word 'they' as she spoke it.
"Well they are Edward, Jasper, and Emmett. Jasper being 17, Edward being 16, and Emmett I believe is 16 as well. " Mom said answering an unasked question we were all surly thinking.
Just then the phone rang. The number 636-275-5060 came up on the caller id.
don't actually call this number. You'll probably just reach some hobo off the street. he he !
Sorry for the cliffy. It was the best way I could think of to end the first chap.
(as always) -heart-
