BellaPOV

"Bella. I love you. Please let me back in your life."

I woke up screaming. I have been having strange dreams like these for the past week.

Hi, my name is Isabella Marie Swan. Call me Isabella and I will kill you. About a year ago my vampire sweetheart dumped me and left for his own reasoning that I am unaware of. I was a sweet, lovely young lady. And just look at where that got me.

Jacob Black it my best friend. He's also my only reason to live. He is my motorcycle mechanic for every time I screw up and crash, and he is the only one that hasn't given up on me.

About a week ago my oh-so-loving father kicked me out of the house. I'm 18, so I can do what I want. He just couldn't bare me getting in trouble any more.

He almost sent me to Florida to live with my mother and Phil. Blah! But Jake gave me the option of us renting an apartment in Seattle. Hmm. Florida with no Jake, and my mother and Phil- or an apartment away from Forks with nonstop Jake. I'm goin' with the apartment.

Jake and I get into all the best night clubs. He's says it's because I'm so beautiful, but I think it's just because he's so freakin' ripped that all the other security guards are intimidated.

"Bella!! What happened?!?" Jake ran screaming into my room.

I ran my fingers through my tangled hair. "Nothing. Just another dream."

He sighed and wrapped an arm around me. "Do you want to talk about it?"

I laughed, "What are you? A therapist?"

"No. But you know I'm always here for you. Right?"

I scoffed. "Yeah, Jake. Let's keep the mushy-gushy to a minimum."

He laughed. "Okay. Let's go get some breakfast."

I groaned and fell back on my bed.

"What?" he asked.

I put a pillow over my face. "Can we just stay inside and have a movie day?" I muffled out from under the pillow.

"Sure. What movie?"

"Ummm, how about we have a Harry Potter marathon?" I suggested.

"A Harry Potter Marathon it is." He said officially. I laughed at his goofy-ness.

I walked out of my room and into the living room. I walked up to the humongous wall of movies we had.

You're probably thinking 'how can someone who moved out and was kicked out have so much stuff?'. Well, for my birthday Jake got me a lottery ticket; as a joke of course.

But it was no joke. I won the $40,000 Grand Prize. Me being me I fainted at first, but Jake cashed it for me while I was passed out.

So we had all the things we needed and wanted and more money for everything else. Life was good.

~*~

We'd made it to the Fourth Movie; the Goblet of Fire. Then things went strange.

I looked very closely at Cedric Diggery and almost passed out.

He looks exactly like Ed-…him. I gasped. I was going crazy. Yes, that's it. I'm just going crazy.

I ran my hands through my hair. It was such an Ed-… Dang it! It was such a him habit.

"Bella? What's up?" Jacob nudged me.

"I need some air." I gasped.

"Umm. Okay. I'll pause the movie." He tried to say, but I was already out the door.

Jake insisted we get the penthouse suite since we had all this money. But it took forever to get down to the main floor.

I walked up to the fancy elevator. I pushed the button rapidly, but the elevator wouldn't come! The walls started to close in on me.

"GAH!!" I exclaimed.

I ran to the door for the stairs and slammed it open. I was skipping two steps jumping down. I wasn't the pathetic clumsy Isabella anymore. I was the elite, much more stubborn, stronger Bella.

I finally got to the main floor. I ran right past the door man and breathed in as much air as I could. People started to give me weird looks, so I went to a place I could be alone.

The alley way was damp, cold, and quite. Just the way I liked it.

But there was another person, leaning against the alley way wall. HE was smoking on a cigarette. He noticed me looking at him.

"You want a puff?" he asked huskily. His voice was groggy and just unclean.

I was about to say no thanks, but instead, "Sure." Came out.

He walked over and handed me a cigarette. Then a lighter.

I studied the cigarette, thinking about what I was doing. Then I put it in my mouth and lit it all in one action.

It tasted good. I sucked it through my mouth and spit back out smoke.

It cleared my head of all the worries. I was on cloud nine.

I heard the guy next to me laugh. "First smoke, huh?"

I smiled and nodded.

He stuck out a grungy hand. "The names Theo."

I shook it. "Bella."

"Well Bella, what would a nice girl like you be wanting a smoke?"

I laughed humorlessly. "You wouldn't believe me if I told you." I popped the cigarette back in my mount and inhaled.

"Try me." He said bitterly.

I was a little woozy from the smoking I was doing. "Do you believe in vampires, Theo?" I asked crazily. He went rigid next to me.

"What do ya mean?" he grumbled.

"I mean, vampires that go in sunlight, do drink human blood, but that makes their eyes red. So some drink animal blood, and there eyes turn a soft amber. But they don't want to be monsters. They try to fit in with everyday people, but there is always something about them that gets them noticed." I said. I new he didn't believe any of this.

He was very tense. Then he turned to me and looked me straight in the eye.

"Bella, you can't go around saying stuff like that. Especially here." He looked around to make sure nobody was watching. "They'll take you."

I laughed and looked away. "Who are you talking about, Theo?" but, when I looked back, he was gone.

"Theo? Theo!!" I called.

"Bella?" someone said behind me.

I screamed and formed a fist and punched whoever it was square in the nose.

"Oww!!! God dammit, Bella!!! What was that for?!?" Jake yelped.

I gasped. "Oh, Jake! I'm sooo sorry. I didn't know it was you! I-" I was cut off by the sight of blood dripping from his hand. He was holding his nose.

"Jake!! You're bleeding!!!" I screamed. "Here." I ripped a part of the end of my shirt off. I held it up for him to put to his nose.

But, he wasn't bleeding anymore. There weren't even any signs of him bleeding!!!!

"Jacob Black!" I exclaimed. What was I supposed to say?

"You were just bleeding, now your fine!!" I yelled.

"Umm, fast healer?" he said it like it was a question.

"I'll find out soon enough." I grumbled and turned back to look for Theo.

"Bella? What are you looking for?"

My eyes scanned the alley way one last time. "Nothing. Just…nothing." I turned back to walk into the hotel with Jake.

I didn't know what was up, but something strange was happening in Seattle.

Hit or Miss? I'll try to update as soon as I can. In the meantime, if you haven't, you should read my other story 'Racing Girl'. It is now complete!!

So please tell me how you think it was in the reviews!!! Luvv ya!!
