Ophelia had awoken the next morning excited to see her brothers and sisters. Her morning routine was all done and she was making herself breakfast.

She took out 3 eggs from the refrigerator and started to beat them. Afterwards, Ophelia sliced mushrooms and chopped parsely and chives along with grating some cheese. Making an omelette was simple and time-saving and not to mention, eggtraordinary.

She giggled at her own pun and made her coffee while the eggs were on the stove. She started to add the mushrooms which she fried before hand and folded the omelette sprinkling the parsely and chives on top.

The aroma filtered the house and just in time her stomach called out to her. Ophelia dished out the omelette and dug in. Emile was out for his breakfast, he mentioned that he will be catching up with Carlisle and Esme, he asked if her if she wanted to tag along but she wanted to meet everyone at the wedding.

Today's plans were to go down to La Push and see Billy- she only told him that she was here. She had a plan to meet him at Emily's when everyone was out the house, then tell them to come back. She was going to hide somewhere and then SURPRISE!

Ophelia's POV

I didn't shower as yet so after eating breakfast I did. I checked the weather on my phone: Partly cloudy; 0% rain. Perfect. Opening the closet I took out a pair of black jeans and a green and blue check shirt with my navy Chuck Taylors

It was still early to hit the road so I took my new book, 'The Devil in the White City' and went to the garden. I opened the gate leading to the backyard and sat on the bench as I began to read. From what I've read so far, we know that Daniel Burnham, is the lead architect and is also the Director of Works for the World's Columbian Exposition of 1893. He was on the Olympic with his family.

He thought of his good friend Frank Millet, who is also on a cruise ship- the Titanic. Daniel tries to send Frank a telegram, but he cannot send it as the Titanic has been in an accident. He didn't worry because the Olympic is on its way to help.

And that's about it, I really enjoyed so far. I lived for Crime and Thriller. Those were my favorite genres and a bit of fantasy-the Harry Potter book series and The Hobbit etc. even your good old English literature.

I glanced at my watch and it read, 10:50. I better get going then. I was about to stand up but then I remembered I wanted to get something for Billy. I looked around and saw a bed of Pansies, what better gift than flowers? I picked out a bunch of them and took them inside. Looking through the kitchens cabinets I found a short white vase, I filled it with water and placed the Pansies inside.

I then grabbed my sling over bag, taking the vase with me to my black S197 Ford Mustang Forum. I locked up the house and got in the car. I messaged Emile telling him that I was leaving for La Push.

>Emile

As I was driving I thought of getting to eat for everyone, I mean, they're wolves, they are going to be hungry. I glanced to my right and saw a restaurant. I turned into the drive-thru and looked at the menu stand. Two burgers each and fried chips or couple pizzas? Pizza it is! I ordered like 7 large pizzas...yeah. I went to collect the pizza when cashier stared at me, wide-eyed, jaw dropped.

I smiled awkwardly and gave him a small wave. "You're the Swan Princess" He says in disbelieve. Oh my gosh, he knows me! "Yeah, that's...that's me", I was over the moon. It feels good to be recognized, not many take an interest in ballet. Ballet is such an underrated sport.
