I moved back down to Forks Washington from Phoenix Arizona. I was sad to go again, and to return to Forks, sad to leave my mom and my friends behind, that I had known since Kindergarten, and sad to leave the heat, and move back to the sunless town of Forks. I was a senior and at least school hadn't started there yet, but the first day back was sure to be horrible. The only student and friend I spoke to on rare occasions was Angela Weber, and we were both so shy and quiet, it didn't really go to far, than 'how are you, and how are things going?' And that was about it from between us. We then would hang up, and wait for the next month to have a two minute long conversation. But other than Angela, I didn't really have any 'friends' in Forks, and it always tends to get worse, when your dad is the Police Chief of Forks, and of the city where you are moving too.
I was on the plane from Phoenix to Seattle, my dad's new wife Sue, was picking me up there, since Forks didn't have an airport, of any kind, that was sure to be difficult and awkward. I knew who she was of course, she was the widow of Charlie's best friend Harry, he died 2 years ago, from a massive heart attack. I was living with him then, and dating a guy by the name of Edward Cullen…I don't like thinking about him, let alone talking about him, but I have to be able to, to tell my past two years, to be able to tell my present life now.
2 years ago
Getting up and ready for school, not really wanting to go. I was dreading this day for months now, all through the too perfect summer, since the beginning of March. I got dressed for the day in a trance like state, and walked down to get some breakfast before I went to meet Edward, the love of my life. My dad, Charlie, was waiting for me there at the table, with 2 boxes wrapped for me. Of course he chose to ignore my wishes about not wanting presents or attention or anything of the sort on my birthday, of course I was 18 years old today. I unwrapped the first, which was a camera, from Charlie, and the second was a scrapbook from Renee and Phil, from Florida. "Thanks Dad, you didn't have to do that, you know, I didn't want nothing for my birthday this year." I told him, as I repeated myself for the umpteenth time. He sighed. "Bells, I know, I didn't do it I swear, your mom coordinated me. She told me she bought you a scrapbook, and knew you didn't have a camera, so I was to get you the camera, which I did." I thanked him and walked out the door, to my red pickup to drive over to Edward's house for my birthday.
Getting to the Cullen's Emmett met me at the door, and ushered me into the house, where Esme and Carlisle had greeted us. I didn't know Emmett was going to be there, and I loved Emmett, so I was happy that he was there, but if he was there, it also meant Rosalie was there, and she was my least favorite out of the Cullen's. She despised me just as much as I had despised her. But for a different and much more difficult reason. I sat on the couch, waiting for Edward to appear, which he usually did out of thin air, until Alice, asked if I wanted to help out in the kitchen, with her and Esme, which I always did of course. I grabbed the paper plates and silverware, and headed for the big dining room table, to wait for everybody else, for food and cake, even though the Cullen's didn't eat, they were going to for my birthday.
It was then, when I went to lay the paper plates down that, I did it, sliced my finger open, and everything else happened in a rush after that, simultaneously. Carlisle, grabbed me and rushed me out of the house, with Emmett, close behind him, trying to get me out as quickly as possible, before Jasper could get a whiff of the tiny spot of blood coming from my finger. I looked around wondering where Edward was at, since I hadn't seen him, since I'd been in the house, but also wasn't so worried about, since I was more worried about Jasper, taking a big bite out of me, which of course, Edward probably wouldn't have found it so funny either.
Carlisle got me cleaned up, and we went back into the house, and still no Edward. I sat on the couch waiting for Edward to finally make his appearance, since I didn't want to eat, until everybody was in the dining room. It was getting too late to stay, and Charlie would be getting impatient, so I decided to finally get up and trudge up the stairs looking for him. I figured he'd be in his room, laying on the bed, moping about one thing or another, but when I got up there, he wasn't there, so I started checking every other room, on the way back down the stairs, in the hallway. The last room to check was Rosalie and Emmett's room, as I couldn't find him, in any of the others, but as I got to that last door, Emmett, Alice, and Jasper were all waiting outside the doorway, and I stopped. I didn't want to know what they were seeing. Alice tried to stop me. "Bella, you don't want to see it. There's no way to describe it, it's totally unfamily like." I ignored her warnings, and stepped around her to Emmett's other side, to see what they were all looking at. I couldn't believe my eyes, and yet I couldn't look away. Emmett took off after him, at first I thought he was after Edward, but he went through Edward, yanking him off of Rosalie, and grabbing Rosalie and throwing her up against the wall. I couldn't watch anymore. I took off down the rest of the stairs, slipping and falling the rest of the way, knocking me unconscious. Waking up I found myself in the hospital.
I didn't remember how I had gotten there, all I remember waking up, was having this huge hole in my chest, which had nothing to do with me falling. I seen Dr. Gerandy there along with Charlie, and Billy Black, Jacob's dad, and Jake as well. "How are you feeling Isabella?" Dr. Gerandy asked me. I didn't know how to answer. I just stared at him blankly, not knowing what he was asking me. I remember asking for Edward, I wanted an explanation, but Dr. Gerandy told me that the Cullen's had left town. I remember feeling depressed, and feeling like somebody was ripping my heart from my chest, but in the next minute happy, that I would never have to see Edward or Rosalie ever again. I didn't think I could bare it, but then I thought of Emmett, and what he must have been going through with Rosalie and Edward, and living in the same household as the two of them. What would Carlisle and Esme think about it? I couldn't even imagine. Everybody left but Charlie, and Jake, they stayed with me till the end of it all. I stayed in the hospital for 3 days after that.
It was a Friday when I was finally able to go home. I was out for two days, before I woke up and seen everybody here, and after waking up and seeing Jake there, just brought us closer together, but I couldn't stand to see the town of Forks anymore, and know his presence everywhere I went. Charlie withdrew me from school, and sent me to Florida to live with mom and Phil again, until 6 months ago, when we moved to Phoenix Arizona. I got a call from Billy Black, letting me know that Charlie was really sick, and needed some looking after and the people that were, couldn't do it all the time anymore. Sue worked all the time, and Seth and Leah, Sue's kids, had other obligation that they couldn't get out of, and Jake had started getting sick himself, so here I am on a plane ride back to where I swore I'd never go again. The plane finally landed, and as I was getting off the terminal, everybody started coming into view. I seen Sue, and Seth and Leah, but the other's I didn't know. But there was one person that stood out from them all. And that person was gorgeous, I didn't want to look away, but all too sudden I had to when I had to look at the floor, when I had tripped and fallen over my own two feet.
Who do you think Bella should see that stands out from the rest?
