I can't believe this! My mum is sending me to go live with my dad in Forks. Somehow she has found out about the minor bullying problem centred around me at school. So she's sending me to Forks to live with my father because she said she's worried about me and I've let it go on for too long and that now this is the only option. I'm not buying it though.
"Bella!" My mum yelled up the stairs "Bella honey we've got to leave now to catch your flight!" I didn't want to leave Phoenix I loved everything about it and I'd miss it so much. I still couldn't see any reasonable explanation as to why I should leave my sunny hometown of Phoenix, Arizona and subject myself to the constant rain and gloom of Forks, Washington. I love the heat of Phoenix and I don't know how I'm going to live without it. I sighed as my mum shouted me again and got up off my bed grabbing my small suitcase of clothes (only small because most of my Arizona clothes were too permeable for Washington) and started towards the door. When I got there I turned around glancing at my now empty room for the last time. I sighed again and made my way downstairs to where my mum and Phil were waiting.

"I love you honey, don't forget to e-mail me and phone me," my mum said as we were waiting for my plane to board at the airport. She looked on the verge of tears and I knew that she really was just doing this for me and that I wasn't blaming her.
"I love you too mum and don't worry I won't forget," I said trying to placate her. Just then a voice came on over the intercom and announced that my plane was boarding and I had to make my way to the gate.
"Goodbye sweetheart, I love you say hi to Charlie for me," my mother managed to get out between sobs the tears running freely down her face now.
"I love you too mum bye," I replied tears running down my face too now. "Bye Phil take care of her for me."
"Don't worry I've got her, bye Bella," Phil said. I crushed my mum in a big hug before letting go and boarding the plane.

I looked out the plane window as we were landing in Port Angeles. I was feeling groggy after the four hour flight from Phoenix to Seattle and then after that another hour on a plane from Seattle to Port Angeles. It was raining when we landed and I groaned knowing that this was what I was going to be living in for a while now. I claimed my baggage and walked outside to see Charlie waiting for me by the cruiser. I stumbled my way over to him but, being me, I tripped at the last minute and would've fell flat on my face but Charlie caught me and pulled me in for an awkward one-armed hug.
"Hey Bells," my dad greeted me rather loudly when I pulled back.
"Hi dad," I said giving him a small half-hearted wave.
We loaded my luggage into the trunk of his car with no problems as my suitcase was only small and then walked around and got in the car.
"So how've you been Bella?" Charlie asked trying to avoid awkward silences when he got the car on the road.
"Fine," I replied shortly "Renee says hi," I added.
"Oh right. Is she OK?"
"Yeah mum's fine."
"That's good."
A silence filled the car but it wasn't too awkward.
"I found a really good car for you,"
"Cha…dad! I told you I was going to buy my own car you didn't have to do that," I protested.
"Well I wanted to get you a homecoming gift," Charlie mumbled looked straight ahead. Me and Charlie didn't really do feelings.
"What kind of car is it?" I asked I was getting suspicious about how he said good car for you rather than just good car.
"Well it's not actually a car it's a truck, a chevy."
"Where did you find it?"
"Well do you remember Billy Black from La push the Indian reservation on the coast?"
I thought about it for a minute. I could remember the name La Push but I couldn't really place Billy Black, "No," I replied.
"Well he's in a wheelchair now and can't drive anymore so he offered to sell it to me cheap."
Wow. So it was free well I guess I wasn't the kind of girl to look a free truck in the mouth. Or engine. "Thanks dad I appreciate it." We arrived at Charlie's soon after. He still lived in the small two-bed roomed house that he and my mother had bought after they got married. It was sweet in a way. It hadn't really changed from what I could tell except there, parked in the driveway was my new truck. I jumped out the car and looked at it. I didn't think I would like it at all when Charlie was telling me about it but I didn't know how wrong I could have been.
"Oh My God. I love it, is it mine?" I asked somewhat hopefully.
Charlie laughed at my expression "Yes," he said "It's yours."
"Thanks dad!" I shouted and ran up to it. Then someone jumped out of the drivers side of the car and a man in a wheelchair came rolling around the truck. I froze in my tracks and screamed. Everyone around me burst out laughing and my expression turned from shocked to confused in an instant.
"What's going on? What's so funny?" I demanded.
Charlie came over to me trying to stifle his laughter. "Sorry Bells but your face just looked so funny." I glared at him and he gradually stopped laughing. When the three men (well two men really the other was just a boy about a year or two younger then me) stopped laughing Charlie continued what he must have been about to explain, "Bella this is Billy and Jacob Black from down at La Push they brought the truck down for you."
"Oh, OK, thanks," I said to them still a bit annoyed.
"So Billy," Charlie continued obviously not noticing my mood, "want to come inside and see if there's a game on we could watch for a bit?" He asked Billy.
"Sure," Billy replied "we've not done that in a while it would be good to catch up again."
"You coming in?" Jacob asked me.
"No I thought I'd just stand out here in the freezing cold," I said sarcastically. I can't help it, it just comes out I don't mean to be spiteful.
Jacob just looked shocked for a second before he laughed and said "You've got a point come on then," and started to lead the way up to the house.
I didn't do much for the rest of the night I just sat on the sofa watching a baseball game on T.V with Charlie, Billy and Jacob. I didn't really understand what was going on and I zoned out and eventually I must have fallen asleep because I felt a pair of arms pick me up and carry me up the stairs but I became unconscious halfway up.
