Zero looked around the room surprised at what he saw. He knew what the room looked like from the memories of TZ(Twilight Zero).

However 'TZ' hadn't visited since the accident which was seven years ago, so it was reasonable that he didn't know what happened to the room in that timeframe.

The room seemed to be a mixture of both goth and winter wonderland.

All four walls were an icy blue with black swirls designed them. The bed was completely black with small blue poca dots but looked comfortably fluffy. The night stands where a dark blue with small snow flake designs on them. He also noticed a door that led to a bathroom.

But the ceiling had the prize. It was black and it had many, very small ceiling lights, that seemed to be part of the ceiling, that made the ceiling look like it was the night sky, there was also a larger but unnoticeable, if you didn't look closely, circle that didn't show any light.

Zero flipped the switch that was right next to the door and the large ceiling light turned on.

'It look's beautiful.' Zero's thoughts, were interrupted by the awkward sound of a throat clearing.

"Uhh, I hope you like it." Charlie paused slightly, looking at his still expressionless son. "I had it designed four months ago, your mother said you liked star gazing."

Zero slowly turned to his father, feeling overwhelmed, feeling something inside him begin living once more.

Charlie became worried and started rambling about ways the fix any mistakes and if he didn't want to be there, which made his heart ache but he loved both his children and would not be selfish.

Zero suddenly hugged his father with almost all his strength, being careful to hold back.

"Thank you dad." Zero felt like jumping for joy but his naturally shy and reserved character made it impossible.

Zero let go of his father the awkward and embarrassed flash in his eyes disappearing just as fast as it came.

"Yeah I'm going to go check on Bella now, make yourself at home and call me if you need." Charlie walked away with a small smile on his face, feeling like he had been enveloped in warmness.

Zero looked around his room feeling that this was exactly his style, dark yet not to the point of goth, showing his habits although subtle.

Zero began unpacking, finishing within thirty minutes. Laying on his bed staring at his starry ceiling, having switched of the main light, in his last life and 'TZ's' they loved star gazing, it made them calm. However his peace was interrupted by knocking at the door.

He sighed, annoyed that he was disturbed. "Come in," Bella stepped into the room looking around in wonder, "what do you want."

Bella jumped slightly, having forgotten about her perpose of coming. "Ah, so today, how and when?" She asked curiousity lacing her words.

"You expect me to know what you mean?" Zero spoke with no emotion on his face or in his voice.

"Today, when did you get soo close to dad?"

"I wanted to become closer to dad because I haven't seen him since I was eight, and now I'm fifteen. I missed dad while you got the chance to visit him, but you wasted it." Zero was now slightly angry at Bella, Charlie was an awesome man yet in the books and movies, she didn't treat him the way a child should treat their father.

"I'm sorry, it's just...he hurt mom soo much...and I don't know how to act with him around." Bella tried to explain but she forgot one thing.

"Are you saying that dad was the one who left Rénée for another woman, are you saying that Charlie is the one that left while saying all those hurtful words, breaking mom's heart."

Zero now stood up towering over Bella half a foot, looking down at her with eyes that seemed to darken with anger, an emotion he rarely showed, scaring the wit's out of her.

"I..I didn't mean it like that," Bella felt bad for what she'd said so she continued, "it's just, Im stressed about moving to Forks."

Zero stared at her a few more seconds before going back and sitting on his bed.

"Umm, so how are you settling in to the new environment?" Bella was absolutely amazed by the design, now she regretted telling Charlie to keep her room clear and plain.

"I'm doing fine, anything else you need?" Zero suddenly heard a sound similar to a phone notification.

Zero thought of dismissing the notification and it disappeared like it was never there, he'd see to that later.

"I just wanted to talk, you know sibling to sibling." She spoke while moving to one of the chairs that was tucked into a black desk, sitting down.

A few minutes after they began talking and mending their relationship, there was a car honk, making the siblings go down to see what was happening, Zero already knowing the scene that was going to play out.

Once they where out the door, they saw Charlie talking to a man in a wheelchair, a tall, tan teen standing to the side.

"Ah, your here, I hope you remember Billie Black here and his son Jacob." Charlie spoke with a small smile.

Bella responded with the same things she did in the film. 'It lookes like I'm in the movie, although I'd expected it from the beginning.'

Zero stood to the side not interested in mingling.

Once Billie and Charlie were done playing around, Charlie came over and stood by the slightly old looking bright orange truck, laying his hand on its hood.

"So what do you think?" Charlie directed the question towards Bella expectantly.

"Think about what?"

Charlie pat the car roof, "bought it of Billie here."

Jacob stood proudly as he spoke, "I rebuilt the whole engine."

"Wait, do you mean that's for me?" Bella spoke with excitement, speed walking towards the truck, goodness knew she wouldn't be able to run without slipping and injuring herself.

Zero watched from the side as he saw the interaction between Jacob and his sister, cringing.

"Zero," Charlie spoke with a nervous hint to his voice, "I know  that you hate cars and absolutely won't get into them unless you really need to. So I didn't get you a car but got you something different, was a bit difficult, but I got it."

Charlie led him over to the back of the house, towards a lump covered by a white sheet.

"Your mother told me about your dream vehicle, so I pulled some strings and this is what I got." Once Charlie finished speaking he pulled of the sheet.

As Zero looked at the vehicle he had the second pleasent suprise of his day.
