"She grew up so fast," I whisper to Edward as we watch Emmett, Alice, Jacob and Nessie playing freeze tag in the garden.
"Come inside!" I hear Esme call. She has just made dinner for Ness and Jake and I suppose she would prefer them to stop playing before Emmett crashes into the house.
Carlisle is home and soon the whole family, including Jake, is seated in the living room. Edward, my Edward, sits next to me, holding my hand as we watch Jake and Ness laugh together. Its been twenty years since the Vultori came and they're married now, much to Edward's annoyance.
A knock sounds at the door and Carlisle goes to open it. A man with his face hidden by a black cloak stands there, and what we can see of his mouth smirks before smoke fills the room and everything goes black.

"Ugh," I moan as I wake up. I run a hand through my hair as I realise I'm on a bed, and not just any bed. My bed. At Charlie's. Holy crap.
I raise my line of sight to the mirror in front of the bed and my mouth drops open.
I'm human.
My cheeks have a definite blush, and my eyes are the deep chocolate brown colour Edward fell in love with.
Edward...
As I inspect my face further I realise I look younger too. My face is ever so slightly rounder and a tad more childish. Almost exactly like when...
No, no way.
Turning on the ancient computer on my desk, I check the date.
Ho-ly shit.
Its the day of my first day of Forks High.
Again.
What the fuck is going on?!
What if..? The Cullens, Jake and Nessie were all a dream. No, Jake is most definitely real. I knew him long before the Cullens, and there is no way I dreamt twenty one years into my future.
Is this how Alice feels after every vision?
And if I didn't dream them, where the hell are the others? Maybe... They all went back to their human lives too...
I'll never see them again. I'm at least one hundred years younger than the lot of them, and Nessie will never exist without Edward.
As I realise this I feel wetness on my cheek and it takes me longer than it should to realise the thought of my family has caused me to cry. The feeling is so familiar yet so... Odd.
Well, it should be expected since I haven't cried in over twenty years.
"Bella?" Charlie asks, knocking on my door, making me jump. Damn.
"Yeah dad?" I turn around to see him in the door way. Without thinking I throw myself at him; the Charlie I knew with the Cullens died of a heart attack five years ago.
"Woah, Bells, what's wrong?" Charlie chuckles, slightly alarmed as he hugs me back gently.
"I just missed you so much," I sob, tears running freely. Truth rings in every word, and I know its perfectly okay to say this as, if my suspicions are correct, I only moved in with him yesterday.
"Bella, I missed you too," Charlie replies, rubbing my back. "Now, you better get ready. You don't want to be late on your first day!" He pulls away and rushes down the stairs to get to work.
Oh God.

I pull up at the school in the rustic old Chevy I used to love, but now I seriously hate. I guess its what happens when you get used to twenty years worth of fast cars.
