Heat.....
Sand.....
Sunshine......

I was going to miss all of these components that make up Arizona. The way you woke up to the sun in your eyes or not even having to look at the weather because you knew it was going to be warm no matter what. I was going to miss the heat on my skin making me warm, or the sky to say the least. I was moving with my twin sister, Bella Swan to a small town name Forks. Why ? Our mother Renee, married Phil, who was a baseball player.

He was a great guy and I could tell he really cared about our mom, but he had to move around a lot which mean't Bella and I would be stuck home with our mother. Bella and I noticed it made her unhappy to be away from him, so we called our father, Charlie, to see if we can move back with him till graduation. It wasn't so bad. I loved it, but sometimes Forks was small, dim, rainy, cold, and a bit depressing feel to it. Bella and I used to go there a lot, but we stopped.

" Em, your bag." Bella called out having me turn to our house that was going up for sale.

I smiled and walked in seeing Bella place her bags over her shoulder and held a baby small cactus in her hand. I picked up my gray bag and looked around the house a bit already missing this house, but with lost comes new things.

" Awe, I'm going to miss you guys." Mom said when we both walked outside.

She hugged the both of us and stared at us. Bella and I were twins, but very different twins. Bella was pale, with somewhat wavy hair and a frail looking imagine. I was a bit pale too, but not like her with wavy hair, and a athletic body. Bella was my little sister since I was born first.

I took care mostly of my sister. I was the one to defend her through stuff or even give advice. I was a true older sister. Maybe the mother sometimes, since my mother lacked in that department. Bella was my other half. We been through everything. Bella is mostly insecure, but there I am always telling her otherwise. What were sisters for ?

" Guys, come on. I love you all. We got a plane to catch." Phil said while I nodded and threw my bag in the back before sitting next to Bella and putting my earphones in.

Goodbye Arizona. It was fun while it lasted.

In a blink of an eye, we were in Forks, Washington. How could I tell ? When I looked out the window, there were no deserts, cactus, or sun. It was a sheet of clouds, rain, and even the feeling of cold. Bella and I got off the plane looking around for Charlie. He was there looking for us too. His eyes landed on us multiple times, but he didn't recognize us. I hit Bella's arm with my elbow and started to walk towards him. The closer we got the more confused he looked till I said,

" Hey Dad."

" Emma? Bella?"

" That's us." Bella said a bit surprised he didn't recognize his own daughters.

I didn't blame him. With our mom never really letting us come to Forks, he hadn't seen us in a while. I chose to ignore everything else from there. We were both put inside a sheriff cop car and driven to our old house. Bella sat in the front. I felt bad hearing awkward conversation between the two. I just had my earphones on listening to Mr. Brightside. When we got to the house, I was surprised how much it looked the same.

I was thinking, maybe he moved something, or changed the color, but no. It was the same white house small enough for a family of four...like it was suppose to. Dad parked the car while Bella and I grabbed are things heading inside. Even the inside looked the same.

" I cleared some shelves from the bathroom."

" Right. One bathroom." Bella said while I followed behind him.
