It took me a while to get to a part 2 but here it is. Bella and her stepmother Renee getting married and how the town will react to this news. I will try to add chapters as frequently as I can. Please review, feedback would be nice!
Bella had been living with Renee for 2 months without any contact from her father or mother, she had thought about calling but didn't think much good would come of it.
"You're no daughter of mine" she remembered her mother, Charlene say; it hurt but she was now with someone that could love her for who she was. She was sitting at the kitchen table that morning, Renee had poured both of them some coffee, Bella had grown to like it even though she had restraints about it being too strong for her in the past. She was thinking about graduation and if her parents would even show up, if they could find it in their hearts to forgive her. It didn't take long for all of Forks to ask questions about why she would be living with her stepmom and why her parents showed so much resintment toward her. At school, Bella didn't have to even tell her friends about what happened, they seemed to already get the picture.
"Are you okay, Bella?" Jessica asked one day at lunch.
"Um...yeah" Bella said back, trying her best to smile.
"It's good to have you back" said Angela, glad that her best friend hadn't abandoned their circle.
"We'll always be there for you Bella" Jessica said, putting her arms around her.
"T-thanks" Bella stuttered, a bit confused.
"We always knew you two were close" Angela smiled.
Bella's eyebrows raised, she was feeling ill, "How did you...?"
"It doesn't take a genius to figure it out. Your mom telling our moms why she kicked you out was a big help. I mean, why else would you move in with your step mom when your family was getting back together?" said Angela as if she had been unravelling this mystery since it started.
"I could think of a few" Bella said nervously.
"Don't worry Bella, not everyone knows, we'll keep this a secret" Jessica said. Bella wasn't so sure it would be much of a secret for very long, she was already getting strange looks whenever she walked down the hall. She thought about telling Renee about her friends knowing but was hesitant to what her thoughts might be; they did say they would still be her friend they even thought the two of them together was kind of sweet but it just didn't seem like the right time for them to make it public.
"Don't people wonder why I turned down Jacob and prom? I'm sure everyone by now knows I'm a...I'm a..."
"People are idiots, they'll spread rumors" Angela said, "But don't worry. So what if you like women, older women I should say."
"Yeah, Renee's practically a cougar" joked Jessica.
"You guys!" Bella tried to lower her voice and keep from laughing; she was glad to have friends like them, ones that didn't judge her for her unusual love or some times odd behaviour, she could only wish her guy friends could be as accepting or even the town itself.
Bella walked over to the sink in the kitchen, at that moment Renee got up and walked behind her. She covered Bella's eyes with both hands, Bella laughed.
"And what are you doing?"
"Don't turn around until I say" Renee said softly, Bella obliged, "Okay, now."
Bella turned around to see Renee holding a ring box; she instantly had knots in her stomach. She opened the box to reveal a most expensive looking, sparkiling diamond ring she had ever seen.
"Isabella Swan, will you marry me?" Renee asked as tears built up in her eyes. Bella was speechless, she would have never guessed this day would come; sure they had talked about moving into another place and thought about eloping but nothing as special as this, "I know that you can do better, Bells. You'll always be my lion cub."
"Yes" said Bella, crying tears of joy, "Yes I will!"
She sprang at Renee, jumping into her arms and kissed her passionatley, pressing her moist lips against hers; Bella thought about just how smulchy this all was, how cheesey but she loved Renee and would do almost anything for her because it made her happy.
"Maybe we should celebrate" Renee said, breaking the kiss. Bella smiled and answered her with a quick peck on the lips. Renee carried Bella to the bedroom, Bella could harldy believe it but she was going to have her fairy tale ending, of course there was much to do but it would all soon be worth it.
To Be Continued. Please Review!
