Today is Tuesday. Tuesday is the second worst day of the week. On Monday you have to wake up early again, actually do stuff again. Then when you go back bed, you're expecting a reward for all your hard work. Then you wake up and you get… Tuesday. A repeat of Monday.

But for me, this Tuesday isn't so bad. Tuesday means we finally get to go the Kingdom! I'm still freakishly excited. However school was filled anxiousness and impatience. But when you think about it… we are just one step closer to getting a visit from the Volturi and Victoria. I quickly shook that thought out of my head.

My eyes unconsciously glanced at my clock, 3:16. Edward is going to pick me up at 3:30, Alice said the rain would stop then.

Oh yeah! The rain. This morning, going to school, the clouds showed the promise of rain. So about an hour or so later, the rain poured from the clouds and is just starting to let up now. Leaving the school building was difficult. We waited until most of the students were gone. Unfortunately the teachers like to stay awhile after school to do who knows what. So we had to do some ducking and dodging with Alice humming Mission Impossible.

"Are you not excited enough to stop doing your homework and go see some mermaids?" I jumped at the sound of my favorite silky voice.

"Holy Mongolia!" I shrieked as spun around to see Edward perched on my bed.

"Mongolia?" He asked arching one brow.

"Yes. It was feeling neglected. Now lets go!"

Driving through La Push with seven vampires is a little awkward. Edward was driving the Volvo with me in the passenger seat and Alice and Jasper in the back seat. Behind us were the others with Carlisle driving his Mercedes.

When ever we passed people, (at the speed limit, that was one of the requirements, and it was quit slow) you could always tell if they were werewolves, tribe elders, or non-mythically connected people. The werewolves and the elders had a look of disgust, anger, or fear. Everyone else just gave confused stares. I guess you don't find luxury sports cars on the reservation.

After about ten minutes I could see the horizon of the Pacific Ocean. When a dirt road came in view, I got a feeling of remembrance. That rode leads to the cliffs!

"Edward! Turn here!" I instructed cheerily. He looked confused but turned anyway. Carlisle followed.

When we were at the top and parked, I hoped out and ran to the edge.

"Bella!" Edward yelled after me running to the edge as well. "Be careful."

"Why are we here?" Alice asked from behind us. I turned away from the stunning view and looked at her. Everyone else was out to, waiting for an answer.

"This is where I went cliff diving." Edward and Rose grimaced. "I thought it would be fun to dive in. And Emmett, you'll get your dramatic entrance,"

"Yessssss!" He hissed punching his fist in the air. Everyone else agreed, Edward's a little forced. I guess this brought back painful memories.

We stripped out of our clothes leaving us in our suits.

"ROSE AND I CALL FIRSTIES!" Emmett screamed. "Bella, you have to go last we all want to see your beautiful mermaid enhanced dive." Ugh, no pressure.

"Fine."

Emmet and Rosalie clasped hands and took a running start off the together. We all ran over to the edge to see them plummeting towards the dark blue hole. Rosalie was squealing while Emmett was howling with joy. Ha. Howl. At La Push. Where werewolves are. Ha. My God, I am so glad Edward can't read my mind, that was pathetic. They landed with a giant splash.
