This story is an extended what-if of New Moon.
What if? What if Edward never came back?
Setting: Forks, Washington
Time: Summer after Senior Year
Conflict: Bella never jumped, Alice never saw, Edward never tried to provoke the Volturi, therefore, EDWARD NEVER CAME BACK.
*Background: Bella is closer than ever to Jacob, who is now her boyfriend. The hole in Bella's chest is always present, always daring to rip open at any chance it gets………..
Chapter 1: Morning
Bella's POV.
I sigh. It's another moist cloudy day in Forks. Woo Hoo.
It's 10 a.m. and I'm off to work at my summer job, Forks Doll and Toy Repair.
I don't actually fix the dolls and toys, I basically just talk to frazzled customers who are panicking about their broken beloved toy and calm them down.
Give me a break, they're just toys people!
I don't really understand why I got this job in the first place. I'm not really great at customer service, and I certainly don't have patience with people who are whining about an inanimate objects.
As I pull up next to the store already irritated, I remind myself that Jacob would be picking me up from work. I immediately feel better.
When I walk into the store, Mr. Cheney, my boss is staring at me, arms folded across his chest.
"Good morning, Isabella." My boss greeted. For some reason, Mr. Cheney likes to tick me off by calling me by my first name.
"Morning, Mr. Cheney. What are you doing here?" I ask.
"Bella, I need you to dress, clean, and style the porcelain dolls today. We have to ship them out to London by the end of this week." Mr. Cheney stated
"Oh, okay." I sighed. This was going to be a long day.
