Chris was in the kitchen making dinner when her dad came in. The one and only Chief Charlie Swan. She was stirring a pot when she heard him cough.
" Hey daddy!'' She said turning the knobs on the stove down.
" Hey sweetheart,'' he replied sitting at the kitchen table.
Chris moved away from the stove and sat down next him, " Everything okay?''
He nodded, " I have news. But I'm not sure how you'll take it.''
" Daddy, you can tell me anything.'' she said with a reassuring smile.
He nodded and rubbed the back of his neck, " Bella's coming home.''
Christina looked at him shocked, " What!''
" Yeah. Your Mom just called to tell me.'' he explained looking at the table.
" This is great but now I feel like a horrible person,'' She said looking down at the floor.
" Why?''
She looked up at him before explaining, " I was going to ask if I could move in with Sam,'' Charlie smiled trying to hide his hurt expression. He's getting one daughter back only to lose the other, " I don't have to. Sam will..''
He cut her off, '' I realize you're older now, so if you want to you can. I still expect to see every now and then ,though. Sam is very lucky to have you, I expect you here for Sunday's.''
She smiled and hugged him, " Thank you! Thank you! You will definitely see me.''
" Yeah. Although I think because of that episode you almost burned the food,'' He said laughing at her.
" Crap,'' she said moving away from the cop and running over to the stove. She moved the pot off the hot burner.
Christina's POV:
I was happy Bella was coming home she's my little sister. I knew that it was going to be hard, though, she barely knew Dad. And from what I remember of Mom it's not going to be pretty. I finished the food after almost burning it. I grabbed to plates and set the table. I sat down in the seat I just left and began to eat.
" So when is Bella coming in,'' I asked before putting food in my mouth.
Dad took a drink of beer and set it down, ' either tomorrow or the day after that.''
" Okay,'' I said as I continued to eat.
After we finished eating I grabbed the plates and put them in the sink. I was about to walk up stairs when the phone rang. I groaned and walked back into the kitchen. I picked the phone up and answered it. I held it to my ear before speaking.
" Swan residents, Christina speaking.''
" Hey Chris, it's Sam.''
" Sam, hey I was going to call you in the morning,'' I said jumping up on the counter. I began to swing my legs as I held the phone to my ear.
He laughed and replied, " sorry, but I couldn't wait. So what your Dad say?''
" Well someone knows how to get straight to the point,'' I said teasing him knowing he was with at least one of the boys, " Not even going to ask me how my day was.''
" Okay. Chris, how was your day?'' he asked me jokingly.
"It was fine, thank you. And he said I could move in. But you and the boys better be fast.''
" Why?''
I sighed , " My sister is coming home, and she was raised by my mother so I don't want to deal with mini Renee.'' I laughed at that my mother was the embodiment of complete and under panic and crazy. Most people in Forks new what my mother was like.
" Okay. How about we come over tomorrow morning.''
" That would be great. And would be so much help,'' I said with a smile. I really didn't think I could love anyone as much as I love Sam, " I'm gonna head to bed okay. Love you.''
'' Love you too.'' he said.
I hung up and jumped off the counter. I walked up stairs with the words change and different running through my mind
Sam POV:
I hung up the phone after I said I love you to her. I smiled and went back in the living room. Paul was still sitting on th couch watching the movie we put on.
" Dude you are so whipped,'' Paul said laughing at me. I slapped the back of his head and sat down.
" Yeah. But you are helping me move her stuff tomorrow,'' I said smirking. I knew Paul could give jokes all he wanted, but he hated being told what to do. he turned to face me with a look of disappointment.
He sighed, " Why do I have to help your,'' he pointed at me, " girlfriend? And why tomorrow?''
" She said something about her sister coming home and her being a miniature version of their mother,'' I explained. He nodded and stood up, " where are you going?''
" If I'm helping your tomorrow then I'm gonna need sleep,'' He said walking out the door. I laughed and went back to watching TV. I fell asleep on the couch shortly after Paul left.
