Bella's POV
"That's the last of it ," I said throwing my black suit case in the truck bed and hoping in. "Thanks again for the truck Jacob. You sure you don't want me to return it to you the next time I see you ?" I felt really bad accepting such a huge gift, even if the truck is a little beat up. It was honestly was going to come in handy when getting around campus.
"For the last time Bella ," said Jacob chuckling , "Just accept the gift ." I rolled my eyes as he handed me the keys. "I feel bad though," I said throwing my hair in a messy bun and taking the keys. I know Jacob and Billy didn't have a lot of money, so selling the truck would help them even if it meant having a little security . "Please don't " Jacob pleaded looking at me, "We both know you need it more than I do." I looked at him. He was right, and we both knew it. I barley had enough gas money at the moment to drive me to the campus. "Maybe I can pay you back ?" I whispered as tears started to form. Stupid tears and stupid Jacob reminding me about my lack of money. I know he wasn't trying to hurt me but I can't hope it. I've been struggling ever since I started living with Tanya. "Bella.." whispered Jacob picking up my chin. I smiled. He truly was the bestest friend a person could ask for. "Are you still here ?!" yelled Tanya stepping out on to the porch, "I thought I told you to hurry up !" I rolled my eyes. Leave it to Tanya to ruin a good moment. "I better get going," I said starting the engine, "Talk to you later ?" I knew his answer already. Not one day was gonna go by without him calling me . "Definitely!" He said patting the side of the car. "Bye Bella !" he hollored as he walked over to his car. "Bye Jake !" I whispered as I pulled out of the drive way. I suddenly had a huge urge to hop out of my truck and hug him, but instead I squeezed the stearring wheel a little tighter. I was officially leaving Forks and heading off to my new life. No evil Tanya stalking me , hunting me like I was some sort of pret. No annoying reminders every time I go out in public about my family and what happened, and sadly no Jake to be their with me. No, this time I was officially alone. I've survived being alone before,but the real question is , can I do it again ? I could feel the tears forming in my eyes. I sighed trying to get rid of the tears and looking at the clock. I had quite a while to go. Maybe I should practice for this Friday night ? I grabbed my bag with one hand and stuck the CD in the radio all while keeping my eyes on the road. And people say I can't multi-task ! I laughed at myself while turning on my new radio. (I use songs from other artist through out the story and say Bella writes them so that you can hear them ! I know they belong to other people so imagine!!)
As the sound of me playing the piano erupted through the car, I to drift into the music and forget about the road ahead.
