When Life Gives You Lemons

Bella's P.O.V

I woke up alone knowing Edward had gone hunting. It didn't bother me as much anymore since I knew it was only so he could be around me. He had been gone the past 2 days so he should be home today.

It was Sunday and I had no idea what to do. I got dressed, and had a shower before going downstairs to have breakfast. Much to my suprise Charlie was still here despite it being 12:00 in the afternoon.

"Morning Bells."

"Morning Dad."

"So what are you planning on doing today?"

"I'm not sure yet."

"Well then do you think you could do me a favour?"

"Sure" I said.

"Well Billy sent me a bunch of lemons that the kids on the reservation picked and I have no idea what to do with them and there's far too many for just us."

"So what do you want me to do with them??"

"Well.." He admitted sheepishly "I was kinda thinking you should have a lemonade stand."

I thought about it. It was sunday and I didn't have anything else to do, plus I'd be able to keep myself occupied for a fair ammount of time. "Sure Dad." I said.

He sighed "That's great Bells. Alright then I'm off to work and you have fun...You do know how to make lemonade don't you?"

I laughed. "Yes Dad I know how to make lemonade."

He looked slightly mifffed that I thought it was so funny be his face relaxed and he smiled.

"Alrighty then, now be careful and don't do anything stupid."

I sighed "Yes Dad."

"Bye Bells."

"Bye Dad."

I finished breakfast, and began making the lemonade. After making about 4 gallons I figured that I should start selling it before making more. I left the lemonade in the kitchen and went looking for a table and chairs. I found an old bistro table in the garage and after searching for chairs I eventually decided to use one of the many mis-matched kitchen chairs. After placing the table and chair outside on the driveway I grabbed a poster and some markers and sat down at the kitchen table. I did the best I could but I was never much of and artist and my attempts at lemons looked more like tennis balls than anything else. I decided the lemonade should be 10 cents a cup since we didn't have to pay for the lemons in the first place.

After I finished my sign I quickly snatched a roll of tape and went outside with my lemonade. I stuck the sign to the table and sat down. I was only waiting 5 minutes before Jacob pulled up in his Volkswagon Rabbit.

"Hi Jake!"

"Hi Bella!"

"What are you doing here?" I asked slightly suprised, usually Jacob was busy in the garage on Sunday's.

He looked slightly embarresed. "Well Charlie called and said you were having a lemonade stand and I figured I'd be your first customer."

I laughed "Thanks Jake."

"So.." He said "How much?"

I pointed to the sign.

"Oh." He looked embaressed "Umm.. I'm not actually sure I have a dime do you have change for a quarter?"

"Oh Shoot! I knew I forgot something, do you think you could watch the stand for me Jake while I go get some?"

"Sure no problem."
