Chapter One

Bella was still in her mental breakdown after the Cullens left and Charlie was having enough of Bella's actions so he decided that it would be best to send her to live with a friend of his on Mystic Falls. Charlie grabbed his phone and started dialing the number that, for some reason, he remembered by heart. It rang two times before someone finally picked up.

"Hello?" said the person on the other end.

"Hey Liz it's Charlie." Charlie said kinda sheepishly.

"Oh hey Charlie how are you?" Liz asked

"I'm fine i'm just calling to ask a favor." Charlie said not really wanting to have a full blown conversation at the moment with an old friend.

"Oh sure thing what is it that you need?" Liz asked

There was silence for a few moments as Charlie tried to figure out how to ask an old friend if she can take in his own daughter.

"Um- I was wondering if you could possibly let Bella stay with you until graduation?" Charlie asked shyly not knowing what she might answer.

"Sure, But can I ask why?" She asked as she let her curiosity carry her away.

"I just think that she needs a change in scenery because she just broke up with her boyfriend and she's depressed. I'm thinking it's because she's in the place that they broke up." Charlie said sadly.

"I can take her in I mean after all I still owe you that favor." Liz said happily.

Charlie chuckled.

"Thanks Liz you're the best." Charlie said.

"I think that it'll be good for Caroline too, to have a friend outside of Mystic Falls." Liz said.

They sat in a comfortable silence.

"So when should I expect her?" Liz asked

"Tomorrow night I want her to get there as soon as possible so that she can get out of this depression and I think the best way at doing that is to send her somewhere where there's sun. And she can't go to her mom's because she's spending time with her new husband." Charlie said.

"Yeah I think that it'll do them both some good." Liz said.

"Sorry to cut this short but I have to let Bella know so that she can start packing her things and possibly go shopping for things that be better to wear instead of her winter gear. Good bye and talk to you tomorrow night." Charlie said

"Ok good night Charlie and I'll call you when I get Bella from the airport." LIz said before they hung up and then Charlie went upstairs to tell Bella and so Bella went to go pack up her things so she went to her room and started to pack.

Charlie knocked on Bella's door. Bella sighed and opened the door to let her father.

"Yead Ch-Dad?" Bella asked shyly.

"You're going to go and live with my friend in Mystic Falls Virginia." Charlie said sternly.

"Ok, Let me pack...A change in scenery should help me." Bella said as Charlie turned around to exit Bella's room.

Bella started packing right away because she was desperate to leave the town that reminded her so much of Edward. Bella sighed and once she was done packing she brought her things down into the living room where Charlie was.

"Um- dad when am I supposed to leave?" Bella asked trying to avoid Charlie's eyes as she spoke not wanting to really sound too eager to leave the dreadful place of Forks, Washington.

"In half an hour." Charlie said calmly trying to fight the tears that threaten to escape.

"OK. Well imma go say bye to Angela and the boys at the Rez." Bella said before walking out the door and started heading towards her old beat up truck that she mentally swore that she'll get rid of once she went to Mystic Falls.

Bella went in the direction of Angela's house. Then she pulled into Angela's driveway noticing that Angela was on the front porch.

"Hey Bella." Angela said

"Hey Ang." Bella said in a monotone.

"Whats up?" Angela asked

"I have to leave for Mystic Falls in a bit so I came to say bye and that I'll keep in contact." Bella looking down.

"OH ok, but you better call me when you land." Angela said in a stern tone then brought Bella into a hug.

Bella let out a laugh and Angela smiled knowing that she was the one to make Bella smile. They let go of each other go but looked into each other's eyes.

"I promise, but I have to go and say bye to the guys on the Rez." Bella said and Angela understood.

"Bye Bella." Angela said

Bella nodded her head and started towards her truck. She got in, then started it before pulling out of the driveway and in the direction of the Rez. She passed the border from vampire territory to wolf territory. Bella drove up to the driveway to Sam and Emily's house where the pack was bound to be. Bella got out of her truck and went towards the house. Bella got to the door and got met with the face of none other than Paul.

"Hey Paul." Bella said with a small smile.

Paul looked shocked at the little gesture.

"Hey 's up?" Paul asked.

Bella sighed and took a deep breath.

"Can I come in side?" Bella asked and Paul's eyes lit up at the little statement.

Bella looked shocked at Paul then bursted out laughing.

"EW!" Bella screeched with a small chuckle. "That's just disgusting."

Paul Laughed while Bella shook her head with a smirk playing on her face.

"Can I go into the house now?" Bella asked softly.

Paul's smirk only grew bigger and Bella sighed.

"Paul seriously we need to head inside I need to head back in Five minutes." Bella said

Paul gave her a confused look and Bella sighed then moved around Paul to get into the house where the pack were. Paul came in after Bella, still confused about what she meant by she had to be back in five minutes.

"What did you mean by you have to leave in five minutes?" Paul asked Bella and Bella sighed.

The whole pack gathered around the entry way and Bella sighed again.

"I'm leaving for Virginia in a bit so I came to say goodbye and that'll I'll keep in touch." Bela said sadly.

The pack looked shocked.

"Charlie said that a change in scenery might help a bit but I'll come and visit as soon as I'm settled." Bella said with her head hanging.

There was silence throughout the room and Bella sighed.

"Don't worry I have a witch friend in Mystic Falls that can take care of me, I'm sure she wouldn't mind." Bella said

The pack looked at her with tears in their eyes which brought tears to Bella's eyes.

"Hey we can still talk and if I can I'll come and visit next weekend." Bella said

Seth came up to Bella and gave her a hug, then everyone else followed to give the vampire girl a hug. They stayed that way for about two minutes before they broke apart and Bella sighed.

"I have to go but I'll call you once I land, Ok." Bella said

The guys nodded their heads and said a quiet goodbye to Bella as she walked out the door. Bella got into her rustic truck and drove to Charlie's house.

…

Bella had just passed the 'Welcome to Mystic Falls' sign and she sighed she was actually doing this and she couldn't believe it. She also couldn't believe that she was going to see the sun again because she thought that she die in that dreary town of Forks the place where you can barely see any sun for weeks on end. Bella sighed then drove to Liz's house, Thank God that Charlie gave me the address to her house otherwise I would have been lost. Bella pulled up to Liz's house into the driveway then got out and walked towards the front door where Liz was waiting for her along with Caroline so that she can introduce her friends to Bella. Bella got pulled into a hug by Caroline and Liz, it's their way of saying welcome to Mystic Falls.

"Do you want to meet my friends?" Caroline asked and Bella nodded her head which made Caroline squeal in excitement.

Bella laughed at Caroline which made Caroline smile widen at the sight that Bella was happy and not depressed. Bella's going to be just fine here in Mystic Falls, Caroline thought to herself.

"Well come on we don't got all day now." Caroline said excitedly

Bella shook her head with a smile on her face before she sighed and got into Carolines car with her. They headed towards the Grill where the rest of the gang were hanging out at waiting to meet Caroline's new household member.
