I looked at my cell phone. 4:15 PM. "This plane ride is going to take longer than I thought," the flight attendants are getting frustrated with all of the questions I'm asking. It is kind of sad that I'm using my boredom to annoy strangers. The people around me asked for different seats, because I keep tapping on the window. Its not my fault I'm nervous to see Anthony, my dad. Though I would never call him by his name in front of him. I'm coming to live with him until graduation. My mom wanted me to graduate at a high school that has more than 5 teachers. Even though moving from my little town Oakwood, in Ohio. There's only about 600 people who live there. I can remember forks from my childhood. It's very green and small, which I'm used to. I spent my summer breaks here until I was 10. My mom decided it would be best for me not see him, because I would never want to leave. I always thought she was jealous of how much I loved my father. I mean, I loved my mom too, its just that he got me more. I don't know what the people of forks will think of me. What if I don't make any friends? What if I'm ignored like I am back home. Maybe ill just watch the movie they're playing until the 2 more hours of this flight is up.

Finally. I got my bags from over my seat and fled the plane. I was looking for dad from the escalator. He's not exactly hard to miss. Tall, brown messy hair, always a huge smile on his face. I spotted him started walking over to him.

"Hey dad." I said excitedly. People looked at me like I was shouting unknown words. What? Was I not aloud to be excited in seeing my dad. I mean it has been 7 years.

"Hey Edward" He said just as excited as I was "You've grown so much"

"I can see you Haven't changed much dad, I was almost afraid I wouldn't of recognized you when I got off the plane." We stared at each other for a brief moment, and then he started to grab my bags.

"Now dad I wouldn't want you to sprain something" I quickly took the bags from him.

"Ha-ha, I see you haven't lost your sense of humor." he said in the fatherly voice I love.

"They're not even heavy, don't worry." I gave a sideways smile as I said it.

We've been driving for over an hour in silence. At least we're close. I can see houses and shops coming off of the main road. "Well I can see forks is still as green as it used to be," I said to break the silence.

"No. It's greener." We both laughed.

Finally he stopped in front of his house. It had a home-like feeling to it. Green grass stretched across the yard, with one big tree in the middle. I could see not that much has changed.
I carried my bags inside and he showed me the room I would be staying in. It was the same little room I stayed in over my summers, but it had a different feeling to it. There was now a full-sized bed in the middle , and a desk with a computer that looked older than me on it. The Rocking chair and book case from my childhood was still in the corner. I unpacked my bags and went down stairs.

The kitchen and living room looked a lot different from when I was ten "Hey dad, I like what you've done with the place."

"Yeah, after Liz told me you weren't aloud to come and see me, I thought it was time for a change. "He made sure to emphasize moms name.

"Well it's Different I suppose."He repainted cabinets and both of the rooms. The kitchen was now yellow, and the living room was blue.

"hey Edward, I thought that you would need a car to get around" he paused for a second, "I've been looking for a while, and you said you like trucks so"

"You got me a car?" My expression lit up ⌠Well its not new, but it runs great I promise"

"Wow" I laughed "where is it?" my face got more serious. "My friend Charlie is bringing it over tonight. His son likes fixing cars, so it should run great." Charlie...oooh I remember him, he used to take my dad fishing with him and Billy and I would stay with his son jasper. "I remember Charlie dad, you used to go fishing with him and Billy. How are they?"

"Well, Charlie is fine, and he's still the police chief." he smiled "His kids came back to live with him. After Renee passed."

"When did this happen?" I asked

"It was around two summers ago, she got in a car accident." He sighed.

"What about Billy?"

"Well, he's in a wheelchair now." he sighed again "because of his diabetes."

"and his son Jacob?" I didn't really remember Jacob back then because he was younger than me, but whenever jasper came during the summers like I did, we would all play together at his house, because its was the biggest and there was a beach.
"He's growing up strong."

"that's good. So when will Charlie be here?" "I invited him for dinner so-" He checked his watch "Anytime now."

I went up stairs to the bathroom and washed my face. My eyes were darker green today, which meant I was tired. I splashed cold water a few times. And I dried my face. I heard a knock at the door so I went to the stairs.

When I went down the stairs I could hear Anthony talking. "Charlie its nice to see you, how's it been?" i stayed at the bottom of the stairs.

"Same old, Same old." That must have been Charlie "I see you brought Jasper" Awesome.

"Well Jasper came because he wanted to explain the flaws the car has, and when he heard Edward was going to be here tonight, he decided he should catch up on old times"

I smiled and enterd the living room.i smiled at charlie and said hello. Then me and Jasper gave eachother a Look

"hey dad, can me and Jasper go to my room to catch up"
"Well , its up to him"
i looked at jasper
"duh of course i'll go." we laughed and i started heading up stairs with him one step behind me.
