Trapped in Twilight

Chapter 19 ~ The Next Day

Nikki's POV

I slept with my wig on because it seemed like a good idea at the time. You could say it was but I now look like I have a very awful bed-head. Great. I spent the next half hour combing and curling my wig, it's not as easy as it sounds.

When we left, the car ride was full of chatter, Ashley and I had a conversation on fashion, Kristen and Rob was their relationship (for school, not actual), Kellen and Jackson were talking about sports and Mackenzie and Dakota were off in their own little world. Of course, it didn't help that when we arrived at school, everyone was waiting for us to see if Rob was still single, how disappointing for them.

"Mrs. King-Cullen." I looked up from my blank sheet of paper. "If you are going to be in art, you have to participate!" The teacher cried, so, I picked up my pencil and started to draw. Like the paper, my mind was blank, it sucked to be honest. Flowers seemed very "in" right now, I just don't get it, I don't see what the big deal is! So, I drew a pretty apple in the middle of someone's two palms and under it: "Edible Art?" Cheesy, I know, but I seriously don't care right now, I should've taken Music, not Art.

At lunch, Ashley ushered Dakota and Kristen over to our table and so, the human arrives; my face twisted to a grimace and I don't think it was pretty.

"Rosalie, if you're going to like me, you better start now because I'm going to be here a long while." Kristen said.

"I don't care Bella," I said the word like it was poison, "Honestly, you can stay with us for the rest of your life but we can't stay with you. It'd be pretty hard."

"Well that's why I want Edward to change me by my 19th birthday."

I slammed my fists to the table, causing the food to bounce slightly on their trays. The Cullen's, whom were listening, started to look at me intently. "If you'll excuse me."

I walk outside and breath deeply in and out, seemingly being useless, keeping my mind on: "Bella can't be transformed, it's just not right. She doesn't know what kind of burden being a vampire is." The parking lot was completely deserted apart from the cars, the wind hasn't moved at all yet.

I knew the Cullen's could probably see through my lie already, or they were just not intelligent enough to know that we are fakes; they also should know I'm wearing contacts. As I walked back in, Kellen scooted over to make room for me.

"Cooled off now Rose?" Jackson asked, keeping a somewhat strained face.

"Yes, I'm fine," I then turned to Kristen, "Bella, you don't know what a burden being a vampire is. You can't have kids!"

"So? I'll adopt if I have to."

"It's not the same, at least for me. I mean, it's not your own flesh and blood, the kid won't actually be yours."

Kristen paused, looking at me intently.

"I see what you mean but..."

"No 'buts' Bella, it's true and you can't find a lie. If you want someone else's kid, be my guest." I said as the bell rang.

I walked somewhat stiffly to class, Kristen trailing me with a good 3 feet between us. The day went on as usually, Robert wouldn't stop listening to "Song for Ten" from Doctor Who.

"I wish today was like every other day." I heard him hum.

"Edward, shut up!" Jackson cried, causing Ashley to giggle.

"No!" Robert yelled back, continuing to hum.

Isabella's POV

"We've got to tell the Volturi!" Rosalie says.

"And if we do, they'll kill us if were wrong." I replied, Jacob putting a protective arm around Renesmee.

"I think it'll go perfect. We just need to tell them that we have some look-alikes and they might want to check them out. They are kinda sorta copying our life." Alice said.

Carlisle thought for a moment, one hand still on the home phone, and then nodded.

"Alright," He picked up the phone and dialed the Volturi's number.

Dakota's POV

We drove home, the whole way was pretty silent really; except for the noise of Rob still humming. At the door was a boy and a girl, they both looked super familiar, and I knew where I knew them from.

"Cameron!" I shouted, jumping onto the boy's back. "Jodelle!"

"Hey Blondie." He said, reaching backward to grab me.

Cameron was like a brother to me, he technically was. He was still dressed in his Volturi gettup, which was absolutely perfect. Jodelle, on the other hand, looked completely normal, but we could fix that. Once inside, Peter filled them on what was happening and Cameron was all-in, he thought our little prank was 'beautiful.'

"Guys..." Ashley said and we all turned to her, "The Volturi, they're coming."

We stood (or sat) in silence.

"This'll be even more perfect! Say... Dakota, Kristen?" Kellen asked, "Are you two up for some kissing? Or perhaps, showing you kissing?"

Our eyes were like saucers and I was silently cursing Kellen fore I knew what he had in mind.... I think.
