Ok random middle of the night story while I am in Spokane WA visiting my family….
DISCLAIMER: I do not own twilight (I just enjoy messing with it.)
Chapter 1: Home sweet Home.
As Charlie Swan, police chief of Forks, zoomed down the road barely going the legal limit he watched as the sign and green trees seemed to pass by in a crawling blur. At this time he was on his way to pick up his only daughter from the bus station where she was at. It had been 3 years since her mother had died and she would soon be turning 17. Soon after the funeral Bella Swan disappeared in to the large city of Phoenix, Arizona. He had gotten calls over the years just to let him know she was alive and still in school but that was all she would tell him. Needless to say, Officer Swan was scared to see what might have happened to his little angel after 3 years running alone in such a big city.
Bella
Bella Swan stood in the little rundown bathroom that the bus station offered with a little line of white powder, a razor, and a rolled up dollar bill. Quickly the line of powder disappeared and Bella was on top of the world again. Gathering her things, Bella went outside to wait for her father to show up.
Bella had not grown up like this or even around this, in fact, Bella's mom, Renee did everything in her power to keep her away from all this. Yet, three years ago .when Renee died she did the only thing to save her from her pain. Going from dealer to dealer Bella got her fix in whatever way she could. Sex, money, she would do anything. She would call her father when she was not sure how much longer her life was going to be. Then she made a bad deal with a very powerful man who wouldn't take anything but the money she didn't have. That was in phoenix and she knew he wouldn't find her now that she was back in Washington .
From a distance Bella could see the police car that Charlie had driven most of his life. She knew that he would see how thin she was, and the piercings she had gotten during some of her cocaine highs but she tried to hide it anyways. She watched the cruiser with her eyes until it pulled in front of her and her father stepped out. He had not changed one bit since she had seen him at the funeral, just a little heaver and a little more gray hair.
"Dad." She called to him when he looked around looking for the daughter he remembered.
"Oh I thought that was you but you have changed so much" Charlie stared in awe at this women who was once his little girl who would run to him when she stubbed her toe but he figured that the reason she was running to him now was more then a stubbed toe.
"Yea, you haven't changed much at all." Bella shifted her weight waiting for anything else to say.
"Well I guess we should get going home, it's about an hours drive back." Charlie took the two bags she had and opened the passenger side door for her and went around putting her things in the trunk.
"Do you have another coat?" he asked slipping in to the driver's seat.
"No"
"Well we will have to stop and get you one. It gets quite chilly in Forks"
"Oh" she looked at him quickly then slumped to the side of the car and watched the green go by.
Bella didn't know she fell asleep until she was being woken up by Charlie "We're home" they both stepped out of the car stiffly and walked to the house that her mother had worked so hard to get away from and now she was running back to it.
"I'll take my own things up" Charlie had one foot on the stairs but shrugged and handed Bella her bags.
The room had not changed in the last three years but it had been dusted and cleaned up for her. Setting her things down Bella pulled out her bag of cocaine and a pack of cigarettes and fell deeper in to her bottomless addiction.
Two hours later, Bella had taken a shower and came down to eat. Charlie sat in her chair eating take out Chinese.
"There is some extra food on the counter for you. I didn't know what you would like so I just ordered everything" she nodded in thanks and went to eat her first real food in 36 hours. When she sat down, her dad sat up, staring off in a 'looking for the right word' way.
"I enrolled you in school... uh" he spit out not figuring how else to say it and sounding more than slightly uncomfortable.
"Oh…ok. When do I start?" Bella asked picking at her food.
"Tomorrow if you want to" he had never been good at talking to people.
"That's fine"
"Ok. Well I am going to go up to bed. Um don't stay up too late" then Bella was alone to watch random TV programs before deciding to go to bed. Her high was wearing down and she didn't want to be awake when it did.
END CHAPTER!!!
