Hey, guys. I'm back so sorry but I have a bad immune system, meaning I can get sick easily. I'm sorry for not telling you guys! But I'm back and sorry to my small fan readers of the KBC, but I won't be finishing that up until I gather my wits so I'm taking a break for now. I'm so sorry I know I promised to finish it by this summer but I've been having problems with my health and my fathers health :(. He's been sick lately too and I'm scared it's something worst. So I decided to write a small story to take my mind off my depressing thoughts...

Absolution.

Chapter 1: Grow Up.

Bella's POV

"Bella. Bella? Bella!" Angela called snapping me out of my daze.

"Yeah? Sorry, I spaced out for a sec..." I said gathering my wits together. I looked up at the mousy brown-haired girl with her square glasses and her concerned smile.

"Hey? Let's go out tonight." I said changing the subject. Deterring the topic of my health.

"Oh, I wish, but my cousin is coming over. He's spending the rest of his senior year here with my family." She said huffing in annoyance. I looked up at her and raised my eyebrow in askance.

"Oh, yeah I have a cousin down on the Rez, half Quilutte, remember? Paul? Maybe you know him? I mean you hang out with Jacob every now and then..." I nod, I know of Paul, I haven't seen him before. Lauren the queen bitch speaks of him a lot ever since she visited the Rez back in spring break. Supposedly he was there all ripped and sexy as she describes him and was definitely flirting with her.

"Hpmh." I noised, nodding with another idea.

"How about, we just chill at your place then. You know hang out, watch movies?" I ask trying to not stay in the house with Charlie and his stares of worry.

She smiles and nods happily, "Yeah definitely, I'll just let my parents know. It's there date night so they won't be home. It will be just us two until Paul arrives and ruins it." She says the last part a little glumly.

"Why is he staying with you anyway?" I said curiously.

She shakes her head, "Supposedly he got expelled from Lapush highschool and he's got nowhere else to go..." I nod.

"By the way, he's kind of a flirt so when you come over just ignore his advances he can be an ass at times..." She says finishing up her notes.

I chuckle, as the bell rings signaling the end of the last period of the day. Gathering my books together and heading out of the class as me and Ange part ways.

I promise to text Angela when I get home. Since it was Friday I'd most likely leave from the house and go straight to hers.

As I'm walking to my pick-up the prick Michael Newton gets in my way.

"Hey, Bella!" He says smirking. I roll my eyes annoyed with his presence already and give a fake small smile in acknowledgement of his presence. He puts his arm around me in response and I huff loudly.

"So this Saturday, you. Me. Movies. Eight o'clock." He demands rather snidely I might add. I snort and shake my head.

"Can't I'm doing something with Angela..." I say trying to deter him from following me to my truck but it happens anyways. We stop in front of my drivers side door as he looks down at me.

"Maybe next time..." He trails of suggestively. I sigh.

"Maybe..." I said sarcastically, though he doesn't notice that. He walks away with a slight pep in his step and I roll my eyes irritated.

I quickly look up noticing people were staring and quickly got in my car driving down the single free-way to my house.

God, I hate high school.

Welp, tell me what you think? I would love some reviews. And again sorry to my KBC fans I will promise to come back to it soon enough. I just need a breather a small project to get me up and running again :).

Love it? Hate it? Review it. ReviewWhore would like to know...
