The Queen [Twilight]

1

Amelia Swan skipped across the to greet her boyfriend.

"Hi!" She stood on her toes to kiss his cold cheek. Edward tilted his head down to look at Amelia giving her a tight smile.

"Amelia," he gave her forehead a kiss. Amelia furrowed her eyebrows confused, something felt off. But the kind, naive blonde just shrugged it off.

"Guess what?" Amelia seemed excited about something, he already knew what but she never knew that.

"What is it?"

"My sister Bella is coming to stay with us! She'll be here tonight," she giggled excitedly bouncing on her heels.

"That's wonderful,"

"I know! I haven't seen her in so long," She continued to ramble on as Edward walked her to her locker.

"I'm glad you're excited," because I'm not.

Ameli sat on the front porch swing waiting for Edward, he was an hour and a half late picking her up for their anniversary date. He was usually very punctual with his timing, even showing up early to impress her father Charlie.

Amelia pressed his name on her phone bringing it to her ear in one last desperate attempt. Tears made her blue eyes sting as she stood up and made her way inside.

Each ring made her heart hurt that he had forgotten but she stopped when she got to the stairs.

Ring

His phone was ringing, in her house? She let the phone continue to ring as excitement rose in her. He had done sweet surprises before, never late but she was too excited to care that his surprise was almost two hours later than he told her he would get her.

She followed the ringing up the steps to the outside of her sister's door.

Why would it be in here?

She pushed the door open wishing she hadn't. She gasped seeing her sister and boyfriend laying with each other.

Both Bella and Edward sat up looking at Amelia with wide, guilt filled eyes. Edward was kicking himself for not hearing her approach,

"W-Wha-" she couldn't even form words and tears ran down.

"Amelia, please, listen," Bella got up and tried to approach her sister.

"No! Explain what? That you're with my boyfriend on our anniversary?!" Amelia shook her head and backed away from her sister. Bella wished she felt guilty but, she didn't.

"Amelia, please let me explain," Edward stood from his spot,

"No! No! No! We're done, how could you?!" She slammed her sister's door as she ran to her own.

Amelia cried for hours, she didn't know how long but she knew it was hours.

Charlie wasn't told anything by Bella other that his youngest was upset. He stood outside her door, knocking gently. "Amelia?"

Only a sob responded, "Go away!"

Charlie shook his head and opened the door, "Amelia, why're you upset?"

The dirty blonde sat up, her dress was wrinkled, mascara smudged her cheeks and her hair was a rat's nest.

"Edward cheated on me with Bella,"

Charlie didn't know how to process the information, "Um, wow, I'm sorry?" He didn't know how to comfort her,

"Really dad, 'I'm sorry?'. That's not what you say," she shook her head,

"Well I don't know what to say, you're always happy and kind to everyone! Forgive me for not knowing!" Charlie is under a lot of pressure at the station and was wrongfully taking it out on his younger daughter, Amelia jumped at her father's tone.

"Dad? Why are you yelling at me?" He just sighed and shook his head,

"Sorry, it's been a long day and I'm tired. Okay? I'm sorry this happened but I need to get some rest I have work in the morning, night." Her heart hurt even worse after that.

-

Amelia stood in the parking lot of her school glaring at her ex-boyfriend's car as he stepped out and put his arm around her sister. Not even a day and he's already all over her sister. And to make matters worse Charlie didn't seem to be bothered one bit that his youngest was cheated on and her older sister was now dating her ex.

Neither one looked guilty lighting a fire of hate inside of Amelia.

Amelia turned getting back into her blue beetle, she loved that car because it matched her whole nice and happy image.

But she's no longer happy.

And she no longer wanted to be kind.

Now the real story can begin. There's going to be one more time jump between chapters 1 and 3 but I just want to get to the core of the story. And not gonna lie I got this idea watching decedents 3 with my little cousin and Queen of Mean came on (lowkey obsessed with) and I was inspired.
