PROLOGUE
Bella's POV
It was a rainy night, not very unusual for the town of Forks where my father and i live. We moved here when i was five, after my mother died in a car accident. I still miss our old hometown of Phoenix, Arizona. I miss the sun most of all. Here there is never sun light and if there is its covered by a constant cloud cover. I guess that you could say i have only dealt with staying here because i would never leave my father alone. He can't cook, or clean, heck i find it amazing that he can dress him self. But, i guess im kinda thakful that he relies on me so much, because if he didn't i wouldn't have any other excuse to stay with him. In fact, I don't think that either one of us would last long if we were alone. It's kind of a fear we have, being alone. Since we have no one but each other.
Today is my Dad's 40th birthday, so I'm at the store buying a cake and some candles because we are going to have a party at our house. Well i say a party, but really its just going to be us and our good friends Billy and Jacob Black.
Billy and my father have known each other since high school, and me and Jacob have been best friends since we were in diapers. Well Jacob has always wanted to be more than friends but i kinda like having a guy for a best friend they aren't as prodding as girls. They don't have to have every detail, they are there when you need to talk but if not then they don't push you, and when you need an oppion they tell you the truth there is no beating around the bush. Plus, im not really that good at "girl talk". I'd much rather be taking risk and living for the moment.
I'm having a really hard time deciding which one Dad would like better, chocoalte cake and chocolate icing or grandma swans recipe for Chocolate Lasagna. Probably the Lasagna i decide. Grandma Swan's Chocolate Lasagna is my Dad's favorite desert, Grandma always cooked it for him on his Birthday.
I grabbed the ingredients and headed home so i could have it ready by the time Charlie, Billy, and Jacob got there. When i got home I ran up to my room changed out of my sweats into something more appropriate for company. Once I got dressed picked up the house and got all the ingredients out of the shopping bags i got Grandma Swans' Cook Book and began to cook the Lasagna.
A few hours later..............
I'm in my room and i hear the door open downstairs. Must be Charlie.
"Hey dad! Happy Birth...."I yelled only to find Jacob coming up the stairs.
" Well, you've called me alot of things in the time we've known eachother but i'd have to say that would be the first time i've ever been called dad!"Jacob said with a laugh.
Man he just gets bigger and better looking every time i see him.
" Jake! I'm glad you came! I can't belive that you haven't been sooner!" I say while he pulls me into a bear hug.
" Bells, I just came last weekend! But I'm glad you missed me! I've missed you to!" he says grabbing my hand and leading me back up to my room.
We lay out across my bed and talk about what we've been doing and our plans for the next weekend. Then he reaches over grabs my hand and traces his fingers around the outlines of my palm. We sit like this staring into each others eyes until we here Charlie and Billy pulls up outside. Then we head down stairs to greet them.
It feels really nice when im with Jacob, he knows me better than i know myself. The best part is that he doesnt hover. Also he always knows the right things to say and the guy can pretty much talk me into anything. He is the sunshine in this dark and depressing town. When im with him i dont have to fake a laugh or a smile, when im with him i cant help but to smile. We dont think about the past or even the future when we're together we just live in the moment. It's like all my worries just go away when we are together but when he leaves they coming rushing back.
" Hey Dad! Happy Birthday!" I say willing myself to escape the constant babbling of my thoughts.
" Yeah, Happy Birthday Charlie." Jake says as if he is distracted by something.
" Thanks. But please dont remind me. I swear i woke up this morning and i had wrinkles everywhere." Dad said with a worried look on his face.
" Well i cant tell that you are a day past 39 Charlie. I dont see any wrinkles." Jake said reassuringly.
"I didnt raise a liar son! Charlie you have had wrinkles on your face since you hit the 30 mark! You'd have to be blind not to see those bags under your eyes! Just face it! Your old!" Billy says laughing so hard he falls out of his wheel chair.
"Dad! You have gotta stop that! Your old to and your gonna break something!" Jacob says trying to heave Billy back into the wheel chair.
After supper Billy and Jacob left, and me and Dad went outside to throw the football like we do every year. I really dont know why we do it every year on his birthday, i guess we just sorta made it a tradition.
"Bells, i know that your getting older and that you are growing kind of fond of Forks, but i think that its time we move on. Now before you say anything, there is something i have to tell you, something that i probably should have told you years ago but i felt that you werent old enough to know about this kind of stuff and i didnt want you to have to worry about it. But... your getting at the age when you will probably want to go your own way soon....but that will be a few years away.....dont you go thinking that just because im telling you this means your moving off before your 20..." Dad says.
"Dad...back on subject please. Just spit it out already!" i say trying to figure out what he would possibly have to tell me that i dont already know.
"Yeah, ok. Im sorry its just....you have to promise that you will not be mad at me, and that you understand that whatever i havent told you has been to protect you." He says with a guilty look on his face.
