"Mom, you know I have to go," I said as I saw a tear slide down her face.
"I know sweetie, I love you" she said and gave me a huge hug"
"I love you too," I said as I hopped in the taxi. I sighed as I put my head on the back of my seat. When I looked out the window, we were already at the airport. I paid the taxi driver and grabbed my bags. I looked at my phone and realized I only had 10 minutes until my plane took off. I quickly wove my way through security. As I attempted to hand the man my ticket he just stared at my like there was something wrong with my face, I blushed, but he still did not move. When I slammed my ticket on the desk, he snapped his head to the left suddenly and mumbled "Thank you for flying United Airlines." I mean I know I am not pretty but I mean why he had to stare is a mystery to me. I took my place in the middle class section, pulled out my copy of Romeo and Juliet, and read it for the millionth time. I sighed if only life were that easy, you live, you fall in love, and you die… what I would do for a life anything remotely similar to that is beyond my imagination. I put the book in my carry-on bag as the flight attendant came over the speaker, "Please buckle up and stay seated, and we will be landing momentarily"
I got off the plane and saw Charlie waiting in the terminal, looking around anxiously. I walked toward him. "Hey Ch-Dad" I caught myself.
"Hey Bells, how was your flight?"
"Good" I replied "kind of long but that's how planes are"
He laughed, "Let's grab your bags." I grabbed one suitcase and he grabbed my smaller bag. "Here let me carry those." He took all my bags from me except my small carry on bag. My dad looked at me funny when My Happy Ending by Avril Lavigne started. "Probably just my CD player" I replied, "I left my watch I will be right back" I said as I waked towards the gate.
"Hello?" I asked picking my phone no one but a few knew I had.
"It's Lanai, turns out there is another coven in Forks"
"WHAT?!?" I practically yelled
"Don't worry they are vegetarian, good luck, call if you need me"
"Ok, bye girl"
"Bye Bella" that is so ironic I thought to myself as I walked back to my dad.
"Did you get it?" he asked skeptically.
"No, it was in my bag the whole time" I said
He laughed loudly as my walked outside. "Hop in the cruiser" he said. Oh great, the cruiser, he is one of the only cops at the Forks police station. I needed to get a car, with what little money I had I could probably buy a scooter. We put all my stuff in the trunk and I got in the car. The whole way home Charlie told me about what had been happening lately in Forks, and I filled him in on a couple of things going on in Phoenix.
As we got closer to the house, I drifted off to sleep…
I woke up in the house, on my bed. Funny I do not even remember walking up here. Must have really been tired, I remember I had to go to school today and I groaned loudly. I through on my favorite jeans and my dark blue and blood red shirt with a black butterfly on it, my look was not gothic or prep, it was just right. I put on my black jacket and went downstairs. "Good morning Ch-Dad" I said catching myself again. I was going to have to adjust to that.
"Good Morning Dad, I guess I will head off for school"
"Ok, Bells but don't drop your keys in a puddle" I stared at him strangely. "For your truck here, go look"
I ran to the front door and threw it open only tripping once or twice I turned around and gave my dad. He awkwardly hugged me back. "Have a good day at school Bella"
"You to dad" I yelled as I barely stumbled to my truck. As I got in the drivers seat I realized this was the start of a new life and I promised myself I would not go through the same secrets as what I went through in Phoenix. I started the car and drove off to my new life.
