I stepped out of the bright yellow cab that smelled faintly of cigarrette smoke and sweat, I breathed in the fresh summer air as wind blew through my hair. I then remembered my luggage in the trunk of the cab, i carefully walked to the back of the cab and opened the trunk pulling my luggage out and setting it beside me. I gave a wave to the cab driver signalling that he could leave. I turned to the massive building before me and took another deep breath before walking determinedly through the throngs of people. I will not back out now, i thought to myself. I can't. Father would kill me.

I already had my ticket, so, i sat in one of the many chairs waiting to board the plane. The plane that would take me to the one thing that i despised the most; Edward Cullen.

Two Weeks Earlier

"Dad, you can't be serious!" I yelled, praying that he was joking even though i knew that wasn't possible. My father didn't "joke", he was strict and when you disobeyed him... you had hell to pay.

"Isabella, you know perfectly well that i am one hundred percent serious. You disobeyed me, now you know you must pay the consequences." I absolutely despised when he used my full name. He knew that.

"But dad, don't you think this is a bit harsh?" I asked, my voice fading.

"Not at all. I could do much worse and you know that Isabella, and who knows, i may be doing you a favor."

"How could sending me to my worst enemy possibly be doing me a favor?" My voice was raised now, i could tell that my father was angry. Very angry.

"Isabella Marie Swan! You will not raise your voice at me and you WILL be going to Forks and that is final! Now go pack your things, you'll be leaving in two weeks." He had to be kidding me. Two weeks? My father was absolutely the cruelest most awful person on the planet; Second to Edward of course.

Current Time

"Flight 172 heading to Seattle, Washington now boarding." A bored voice said, coming from the loudspeaker.

"Oh well, i guess its now or never." I murmured to myself. Oh great, not only am i going to have to put up with Edward for a whole year but i was also going insane... Talking to myself? Had i really stooped that low?

I walked to the correct gate and noticed people giving their tickets to a thin red-headed woman, I got into the line and handed her my ticket.

"Have a nice flight." She said with a smile. I could tell the smile wasn't genuine, it looked too forced.

I walked through the long tunnel and onto the plane, on the way to my seat i stumbled a few times but never fell. I found my seat and stowed my carry on in the bin above my seat, I quickly sat down and buckled my seat belt. I never was one for flying, i closed my eyes and practiced taking deep breaths trying not to think of where this flight was landing.

"Are you okay?" I heard a female voice say. I opened my eyes and saw a short girl with spiky black hair... To me she looked very pixie-like.

"Yeah, i think so."

"Scared?"

"Just a bit." I was lying, and im pretty sure she knew. I was always an awful liar.

"I'm Alice." She said, a grin plastered on her face. She extended her hand, waiting for me to shake it.

"Bella." I said shaking her hand lightly and letting my arm fall limply to my side.

"All passengers please buckle your seat belts and prepare for take-off." I heard what i assumed to be a flight attendant say.

I tugged on my seat belt making sure it was secure before grabbing onto both of the armrests like my life depended on it. I closed my eyes and tried not to think of the hell i would have to endure this next year, but it was inevitable. I thought of Edward, he was so arrogant and shallow. He thought every woman that he encountered would fall at his feet, that was, until he met me. I saw straight through him and when i turned him down he got mad, really mad. He eventually moved, and i was perfectly content without him in my life. Now i'm on a plane to go to stay with his family as punishment, what kind of cruel world was this? And how was staying out a few hours past curfew worthy of this sort of punishment? I had no idea, but all i knew was that it was my fathers fault, and right now i hated him.

Some of this was my fault of course, some of it was also my best friend Rosalie's fault. She made me go clubbing and made me drink alcohol, apparently I didn't do very well with alcohol because within two drinks, i was drunk. So i passed out on Rosalie's couch for a while because she knew my dad would kill me if he ever found out i was drunk, espesially when i was under-age. If he knew i was drunk he probably would have made me stay with the Cullens for the rest of my life.

That wouldn't be so bad, if Edward left of course. Edwards brother Emmett was like an older brother to me, and he was nothing like Edward. He was actually the complete opposite, now don't get me wrong Emmett wasn't bad-looking at all and he knew that. But he didn't expect every girl to fall in love with him just because he looked good. Emmett was like a giant teddy bear, unlike Edward who was more like a... snake. Esme was Edwards mother, she was like the mother I never had. I did have a mother, but she didn't act like one I took care of her more than she took care of me. Esme was always taking care of people, she loved it of course I didn't mind it either.

Carslile was like a father to me, even though he wasn't ever around much. He was at the hospital a lot, he was a doctor at the hospital in Forks. He treated many of my broken bones while he lived in Phoenix. And then there was Edward, the biggest jerk on the planet. I wasn't exaggerating either. He was a ladies man or what i liked to call a man whore, his mind was only on one thing. He was disgusting to me, i didn't see how he could do that to people. He slept with any girl that was willing, which was pretty much any girl that met him - besides me of course. I couldn't lie, Edward was very good-looking but he didn't have the personality to match his good looks. He never did seem to get why i turned him down, even though i had told him multiple times.

I was suddenly brought out of my thoughts when the flight attendant announced that the plane would be landing soon and that everyone needed to buckle their seat belts again. I didn't even take mine off in the first place.

"Are you okay Bella? You've been kind of out of it this whole plane ride." Alice said lightly elbowing me in my arm.

"Oh yeah, i'm fine. I was just thinking."

"About a guy?" She asked raising her eyebrows.

"Umm... yeah, i guess so." What she didn't know was that i hated this "guy".

"Ooo, is he your boyfriend?" She asked, more curious now. Of course.

"No! Eww, i would never date that... that thing." I said almost puking just thinking about it.

"Oh. Whats wrong with him?"

"Hes a shallow conceited jerk. That's whats wrong with him." I said in a harsh tone. What could i say? Edward always brought out the worst in me.

Before I knew it I was getting off of the plane and heading towards where I was supposed to pick my luggage up. I waited for a few minutes before I spotted my blue luggage, I picked them up quickly and staggered back due to their weight. Rosalie insisted that I brought every article of clothing that I owned, I personally thought it was ridiculous but I did what she asked.

I figured that Esme was going to pick me up but I was pleasantly surprised when I saw Emmetts massive figure emerge from a cluster of people. He grinned and ran up to me picking me up and giving me one of his famous bear hugs.

"Can't... breathe... Emmett." I managed to say with the last of the oxygen in my lungs.

"Sorry Bells." He said smiling sheepishly and setting me back down carefully on my feet. He knew how clumsy I was so he made sure to be careful.

"Its okay Em." I said with a smile. My smile quickly faded when Edward walked up behind Emmett.

"Time to go Emmett, moms waiting." Edward said, making sure not to look at me.

"Okay, lets go Bells." Emmett said picking me up and practically throwing me on his back.

"What are you doing Em?" I asked laughing. Emmett always knew how to make me feel comfortable around Edward, since he knew we didn't get along.

"I don't want you to trip over someones luggage and hurt yourself." He said in a teasing tone.

"I made it through the Phoenix airport without hurting myself."

"Yes but if you got hurt with me around it would be on my conscience." He said flashing me a toothy grin.

"You have a conscience Em?" I asked teasingly.

"That hurt Bells, that really hurt." He said in mock pain, putting his hand over his heart dramatically forgetting that it was holding me on his back.

"Em!" I yelled falling to one side. I was now completely upside-down and Edward was standing behind me laughing.

"Oops. Sorry Bells."

"Yeah, sure."

Emmett picked me back up and set me down on my feet. I grabbed my luggage and followed Emmett out the airport doors and into the dreary rainy weather. I wasn't sure I was going to be able to get used to the weather here, the sun was never out and it was always raining. If there was one thing I hated as much as Edward, it would definitely be the rain. Now i'm stuck in a small town where I would unfortunately be seeing too much rain, and way too much Edward.

"After all my alibis desert me, I just wanna get by,
I don't want nothin' to hurt me.
I have no idea where my head was at,
but if my heart says 'I'm sorry' can we leave it at that?"
