We all know Edward & Bella's love story but what if there was another Swan daughter. One who lived life as if everyday could be her last, who sang as often as she spoke her mind. Who accepted all that you gave the world without judgement.

The morning kind of went as expected. Bella didn't take my weather warning from last night seriously and ended up busting her ass in the driveway but the embarrassment didn't stop there. Oh no, Daddy had taken it upon himself to put snow chains on her truck so she'd be safer on the road and she acted like it was a grand gesture bestowed by the Gods.
She said and I QUOTE, "Noone's ever done that for me before,"
Her and Daddy were so red for a minute, they could've rivaled Mars. Either way, I complied with Dad's request to ride with Bella today given the horrible weather; meaning incase anything happens with the truck in the ice, one of his children is capable of handling the situation. Honestly, I have no idea how my sister considers herself mature when she can't handle simple adult scenarios, hell she can barely handle social interaction!
Honestly however, I am worried. She's my babysister and I'm all for her branching out and dating. I want her happy but above all, I want her safe. This obsession, this pedistal she's placing Edward on could be dangerous for her mentally & emotionally in the long run. I'm not saying she shouldn't pursue him - I just don't want her to lose site of herself along the way.
As we get to the school, I see Jas and the others already in the parking lot but I don't approach. Jasper tenses up and scrunches his face in confusion when I only wave in greeting. Rose, Emmett, & Dom having similar reactions, while Alice gives me a warm smile of encouragement. Something tells me that Alice has a lot more than just a 6th sense. In fact she probably puts my intuition to shame.
Looking over to my sister again, I see she's reading with her headphones in, probably still playing catch-up for the readinging in her English class. I usually don't like to have these kinds of conversations in public but at least I know here, Bella will control herself instead starting off in a hissy fit and throwing a tanturm.
"Bella we need to talk,"
"About?"
"Your behavior since we got here, and before you start trying to spout all your self endulgent nonsense just listen to what I have to say! Our whole lives I have watched you avoid every possible kind of social interaction, especially when it comes to guys and I have never questioned it because I know that everyones life processes are not the same. And when we moved here and you started showing interest in Edward-"
"I'm not-"
"Bella if your gonna interrupt me with a lie, at least make it a believable one. As I was saying, you showing an interest in someone is great but I don't want you to compromise yourself trying to get their attention. You have never been the bravest but you certainly don't stand for bullshit and all of sudden your ready to just brush off the consistently rude behavior of some twig with quaffed hair because he's willing to talk to you!? And another thing, all these intrusive and rude questions about him and his family; you've always been ambitiously curious but your crossing boundaries and acting like it's your fucking birthright to know all their secrets. I will never tell you to hold back from pursuing what you want, but I will be your dose of reality when you start acting like a bitchy brat. You like a guy great, but don't stop being a person just to become a part of a couple. Now I'm gonna go and let you think & hopefully when I see you later, you'll have stopped being butt hurt and see that I'm only looking out for you. I love you B,"
