Chapter 1: The News
Elizabeth's POV-
"I can't wait! Are we there yet? Mom? I'm so excited!" I cried out from the back seat of Phil's car.
"I know you're excited to see you sister Bella, but you have to be patient." Renee, aka mom, giggled.
"You should listen to your mom Lizzy."
"Phil- I mean, Dad, I haven't seen her for 1 year and a half. She even missed my birthday… and Christmas!" I complained realizing she didn't even send a card.
"Didn't she come visit sometime last year?" Phil- dad looked over at mom.
"Yes, but I was at camp. I just can't wait to see her. She's my best- only friend."
"I know you two had a very strong connection, but she does have a boyfriend now and you've never been to Forks so…"
"I know mom, it'll be strange. Does anyone know about me?" I asked, curious on how much Bells or Dad talked about me. I would guess not at all since they didn't remember my 9th birthday, but that's ok more presents on my 10th next week.
But it suddenly hit me I've never met Charlie or any one in Forks, at all. When I was born, it was after she got divorced and after Bells stopped visiting. I guess being born late into the family meant I have no real connection with my dad. I've seen so many pictures I guess I just felt like I've met them. My own dad might not even recognize me! So no one, no one at all knows who I am.
"I don't think so sweetie. But that doesn't mean you can't make friends." She smiled at me snapping me out of my trance but I just stared out the window and sighed.
I didn't really want to make friends. I mean I really didn't look the best and people made fun of me a lot. Since mom is half albino, I'm too pale for the weather and my hair is pitch black. To make it weirder I have turquoise eyes. I started school early and am 3 levels above my grade. But to be honest being able to start high school is great, basically I did a lot of work and finished middle school last year at the age of 9. Teachers said to wait before going to high school for age reasons so I get to spend time with Bells in Forks, no school for another 2 years.
"Lizzy don't look so worried I bet people will love you." Dad smiled.
"Mom?" I just realized something scary.
"Yes."
"Does dad know about me? I mean, thinking about it, I've never got anything from him at any occasion. I or he has never visited each other. No calls about me, when Bella get tons when she's sick. I mean he knows right?" I looked up at mom's teary eyes.
"Oh Lizzy. I should have told you sooner but I thought it would make you sad. No Lizzy he doesn't know… about me having you. Look I meant to tell him but after Bella stopped going to see him I had you. It had been so long since I've seen your father that I was unsure about your genes that I didn't tell him. You are his daughter… I'm… so…sorry. I… just…" She was about to cry I could see it.
"It's ok." I tried to comfort her.
"No it's not. I'm so sorry I'll get Bella to tell him before they come to pick you up."
"Wait. Bella has been keeping me a secret too?" Now I was about to cry. We were sisters. We keep no secrets.
"Yes she has. But only because I told her to." She picked up her phone and texted Bella.
"Mom let me get this straight I'm going to live in a house were my own dad doesn't know I existed!"
"I'm soo sorry I… I… Please forgive me." Mom looked into my eyes.
"Ok but I want you to do something for me."
"Anything. Name it."
"I want a dog when I come back in 2 years." I've always wanted a dog. Actually a wolf but they don't really exist.
"You got it when you come back you can get any one you want." Mom smiled as she cried. "Thank you." She whispered.
I looked back out the window. Great. Forks here I come.
