PREFACE
BACKGROUND
I am Isabella Swan but I go Bella and along with my two best friends Alice Brandon and Rosalie Hale, we are forces of nature to be reckoned with.
My parents Charlie who is a cop and Renee who is a writer, divorced when I was 6 years old. Both of my parents remarried when I was 10 years old. Charlie married Jennifer who is a photographer and 10months later they had a baby boy named Jeffery.
Renee married Phil who was the coach of a Major League Baseball team and 16months later they also had a baby, a girl named Taylor.
I lived with my dad because first of all I didn't want to leave my friends and second my mom and Phil were so busy traveling that I wouldn't be able to spend much time with her. So it just made since for me to live with my dad.
Rosalie's was an only child whose parents were fairly well off her father Robert was a CEO of a bank and her mother Evelyn was an accountant.
Alice's family was much the same as Rose's. Alice was an only child as well, it was something that we all shared until my siblings came along anyway. Her father William was one of the founders of AOL and her mother Cynthia was an artist.
The three of us grew up together in California about an hour away from San Francisco in a little town called Antioch. Alice and I are the same age (26) Rose is a year older but she was held back in school so we were all in the same grade. When our Senior year rolled around Rose decided that she wanted to join the Military, so she took and passed her GED and off she went without us. Alice and myself after graduating went to Chico State. I studied Languages and Alice studied Fashion. Alice and I were on our last year of College when Rosalie came home from her four year Military career. Since we had been apart for so long we all decided to move off campus and get a house together. Finally it was great for the three of us to all be together again.
