Lexie has long, thick hair. It is a rich dark black, and it falls just to her mid-back. She usually wears it down, just letting it flow down her back like a river. She likes to wear it up a lot as well, sometimes mixing it up with adding a funky headband into the look. Lexie has dark blue eyes, so deep that you could drown in them. She has big bambi eyes, and when she bats her long thick eyelashes the mountains melt. She has a heart shaped face that you cant say ‘no’ to.

Her fashion sence is an unusual one. She likes to keep things simple an original. She doesn’t like to go with the flow, but she loves when kids try and cant pull it off as good as she does. She has a scene yet a preppy look to her, but she keeps it laid back. Lexie isnt a neat freak, but she likes to keep everything in order. She believes that there is a place for everything.

“Even thought I have had to encounter some pretty shitty thing in my past I try to have the most positive out look on life. When people first see me they often think of me as a sad little emo girl. but i’m just me, i’m not emo, or preppy, or anything, i’m just me. I hate when people use titles or try and categories people based on appearance. So things that make me happy to face each day, is maybe a little caffeine. I can’t start my day with out some coffee. Also picking out a wardrobe that will knock anyone’s socks off puts a smile on my face. My love in life is art, and I show of my art through my fashion, along with some other things, but fashion is number one on my list. My loves involve things like my family and friends. especially my closest friend my little dog, mylie, she is a little black pomeranian with little white paws. she is such a little jem. i wake up every morning to her sweet little face greeting me. I love art, wether it is sketching or painting, photography or designing. However designing has always been my love over all. Being it designing clothes or room layouts. My life is dedicated towards my fashion and designing

I wouldn’t say i’m a total downer. But I have had my fair share of upsets in my life. With my dad leaving and my mom passing away my life has been a mess all its own. I guess I have a lot to be angry at the world for, but I try and life in the moment and try to not think about the past. Now what makes me angry now a days, is when girls try to be who they aren’t, well when guys do to, but girls tend to take it way out of context. And another thing is when people say that they are your friends and all they want is what you have. When someone works hard for what they have and someone just comes along and try to take it out from under you. People these days people just try to hard to be what they aren’t.

I am a smart girl, if i do say so myself. School smart and street smart. I have always gotten good marks in school, straight A student. But growing up in downtown newyork i learnt how to live on the streets when my dad left us we didnt have much with my mom working two jobs. But we tryed to get along well enought without him. My mom pushed me to hit the books harder then ever because she wanted me to have a promising future. She also wanted me to have as many career options as possible. Thanks to her i have more paths i can choose from."

"Having been alive on this wonderful earth for seventeen years of my life i have grown to have any interests. One of them being fashion. get me started and i wont stop talking about designers and brands and countrys and citys... like i said, hard to stop. but i get going on all of the different aspects of the fashion world. I have been sketching clothing designs in my notebooks for as long as i can remember. I have to have over a dozen sketch books full by now. But thats only one of my interests. Most of them are with in the art catagory. Like sketching, i guess since i sketched so many designs when it came to drawing people it just came naturaly. I also love photography, being able to capture the world beauty in one single shot is amazing. Other then that i love music. I have filled alot of my free time learning how to play and write music. I can play guitar and drums, but my favorite is my piano. Along with that i love to sing. i never thought of it more then a hobby but after winning a couple talent shows people said i should check it out more. who knows maybe i have more on my plate then just designing."

* GAMBLE W I T H DESIRE ,

My mother, Ellanore Tavish, and my father, James Cullen, met at Golfridge Boarding school in Australia. My mother came from Maine, America, while my father had grown up in Brisbane Australia. They were in their junior year when they met at a party in one of the dorms. But they didn’t start going out until their senior year. They were crowned the homecoming King and Queen, and were the typical popular senior couple. My mother was beautiful; she had long blonde hair and looked like she stepped right out of a fashion magazine. My father was what they thought of when they said tall dark and handsome. He was tall and athletically built; he was captain of the football team and played on many other teams as well. After High school they went different directions. My grandmother wanted my mother to come back to Maine to go to University, but my mother was surprised to be accepted in the University in Australia. She was studying to be a interior design and they had very promising programs there. So she stayed. My father wanted to take up business like his father so that one day he could take over the family business of construction. They never expected to end up at the same University; they took it as a sign and got back together. They soon discovered that my mother was pregnant, so they decided to get married after their first year in University. Four months after they got married they were blessed with a baby son. They named him Raemond James Vanderwood. He is my older brother.

Three years later I was born in Brisbane, Australia on October 30. Two minutes after I was born my twin sister Lillian came out as well. Sadly Lillian had the umbilical cord around her neck and chocked coming out. My mother was crushed. my parents didn’t tell me about my twin sister. But I always felt like a part of me was missing. I grew up in a strict house with rules and expectations everywhere and from everyone. My father grew into a famous business man. So everywhere that I went people were watching me and judging me. So as I grew older I got used to the idea of people watching to see what I will do next. When I was little me and brother were always a target of people and the paparazzi. So being in the media spotlight and getting all the attention was just a way of life.

The summer after I was in third grade she walked into the house and heard my parents arguing. I couldn’t quite make out why, just then I heard her mom crying as she walked into the front hall. That was when she saw me standing there. Through the tears she went to me and gave her a hug before picking me up and running up stairs with me still in her arms. She started to through everything together in a suitcase and they packed the car and we picked up Rae from school and left. We went back to Maine’s to be with my grandparents. My mother was a mess. When I was a sophomore, Rae was in his senior year, he started to work with our grandfather at the law office. After he graduated Rae got accepted into law school in Toronto, Canada. With him gone I had to help my mother, who was already working two jobs, with working and paying for bills. We didn’t hear anything from my father and so he was now officially out of the picture. So now it was just me and my mom, living in a small downtown condo, which my grandparents left us. After two months my mom started to get really sick.

We didn’t know why it was lasting so long and tried everything to make her better. That was when my mom went to the doctors and they told her that she had cancer. I felt as if her whole world was crashing down around me. My dad was gone, my brother was in another country in school and now my mother was sick and in the hospital. I did know what to do. Rae wanted to come back home but mom said he had to stay in school; she didn’t want to ruin his studies. It was three months later when mom passed away. And Rae was able to come home for the funeral and to spend some time with me. Mom had named her parents as my guardians and so she went to go live with them for a couple weeks. They were living in an old folk’s home, and since Lexie isn’t old she wasn’t able to stay. So they went me to Lillyton, just an hour away. It was small and that was where my mother grew up so they knew people there and knew it was a safe and secure place for me. They paid for my school and apartment and I got a job as a DJ at a small club, and I was going to school. I felt independent but she still felt empty.

Rae finished his major classes at the law school and was able to come home and live with me while he did further class’s online. He got a job at a law firm just outside of town in the big city. So that way he was able to live with me and look after me. I liked having Rae living with me. It helped the emptiness to not hurt so badly. But a small part of me still longed for my mom.

...................................

Edward drove up to the Swan house in his fast and sleek silver Volvo. As he stepped out of the driver side door into the muggy weather of Forks, he lifted from his pocket a pair of sunglasses. He was wearing his loose fitted jeans and boots, with a dark purple fitted t-shirt and his favorite leather jacket. He slowly put them on and closed the door of the car, which for most people would have seemed like slamming it, but for Edward it was a light close. He walked as if he was floating up the path and steps to the front door.

It had been a long day for Edward. Usually the day seems to go by so fast but on that particular day he was out with Emmett doing some much needed hunting. They had just gotten back from a weekend camping trip. All Edward could think about was Bella, he could figure out why such a small human could have such a strong pull at him. He didn't much care, he loved being with her and every day they spent together he got stronger and stronger against his urges.

As Edward reached the door and he could hear the TV in the living room on and the game on it. He saw the cruiser was in its usual spot and he knew right away that Charlie was home watching the game, in his mind he could tell Charlie’s team was winning so he knew this was a good time to have a little visit, Edward also knew that Charlie had a police station meeting tonight so he could be alone with Bella. Edward stood just outside the front door, he heard some foot steps flying down the stairs, and his face broke into a half grin. He knew who was on the other side, he gently knocked three times with his knuckles on the face of the door. Right away the door flew open and Bella stood there in a old t-shirt and jeans. Edward loved how she could look so un put together yet look so beautiful. He stood there leaning up against the door frame flashing his dazzling smile, as she opened the door.

Edward was glad to see Bella. He welcomed her warm embrace around his neck, being close to her made the long day worth while. He wrapped his big cold arms around her tiny waist and pulled her closer into his chest. As she reached up and spoke 'I missed you' into his ear he rested his check on top of her head and said I missed you. Moments seemed to fly by as they stood there holding each other in a never ending lock. It must have been half time because Charlie rose from his chair that new had a crater in it from him sitting for so long, and was walking over towards Edward and Bella.

Edward dropped one arm and swung Bella to his side as he stepped in closing the door behind him. Hello Sir Edward said as Charlie went into the fridge looking for another beer, How’s the game? Some people might have rolled their eyes thinking the person was sucking up but the way Edward said it made it sound like he was actually interested. As Charlie stood up straight with a coke in hand he looked and Edward, who was standing with his arm still around Bella's waist. Charlie's eyes flash back and forth between Bella, Edward and Edward's arm.

So what are your plans for this afternoon? Charlie asked. Heading to the library to work on biology homework and study for a test Edward replied. Charlie actually believed him and went back to his game. Once Charlie was in the other room Edward turned to Bella with a grin Grab your books.
