You know, everybody has something that they are really good at. Basically anything.

Speaking, writing, music, cooking and so on.

Mine wasn't one of those.

I'm really good at hiding, being invisible.

And actually, I wouldn't want it any other way.

I liked my time with my best friend Alice. She wasn't that invisible as I, she was pretty and funny.

Something that I wasn't.

But I did enjoy my alone time, even though being invisible the way I was, wasn't always that good that I thought.

I wasn't pretty, as Alice, like I said before.

Sometimes almost everybody at school would call me names like ugly duckling.

It wasn't even that funny. Yeah I know my last name is Swan. Get over it.

I looked really stupid, as they say I looked.

I had brown curly hair, too thick. Ugly glasses which I had to wear, and old baggy clothes.

What was I hiding under there, they would ask.

But actually I didn't give a shit what they thought.

Usually I could just be invisible and no one other than Alice would notice me. It was good.

And also, Alice's brother Edward.

He was nice to me. He didn't judge me like others, but I think that was just all because of Alice.

Anyway, Edward was fixing my car at his car garage.

Well, it wasn't his, but... He was working there.

Edward is two years older than I and Alice.

But as the year ended, our senior year, everything changed.

We grew up, I moved, I went to school again, I graduated, I got job.

Everything else changed too.

I was nothing like I was back then.

It's been nine long years last time I saw my best friend and her brother.

But I doubt they will want to see me ever again, anyways.

"Hey, Bella"

Oh God, Mike. Why?

"Hey. Did you have something important to tell me, because I'm kind of busy here?" I asked him.

I know, I was a bitch.

"Here's the papers about the Denali winery", he said.

"Why? Wineries are not mine to take care of, Mike. You know I only write about architect. Take them to Irina."

As he was leaving I made sure he heard me muttering about how bad he was at his job.

I know, I am a bitch. Real one.

So I was at work doing my job, writing. As I said, I write about architect and buildings, designing, furniture stuff like that.

Our magazine, Architecture - how fitting - was all about that. But we had other areas like wineries and companies, etc. We also help them to decorate and build.

It was nothing I imagined to do.

But as I said, everything changed.

"Bella."

That was my boss, Emmett. Also my very best friend aside from Rosalie, his girlfriend.

"Yeah, Emmy?"

"Aw, Bellsy you know you can't call me that at work", he said chuckling.

"But Emmy", I whined.

"I know, I came here for a reason. Someone needs to go to the Masen Architect. They want us to work together in some big project. It will be huge. And I'm offering it to you, Bellsy. You and me will be going there tomorrow, work out the details and other shit."

Wow.

This is huge.

"Of course I will take it if you want me to. Damn, Emmy. This is going to be good", I laughed and hugged him, like I hug my best friend.

"I knew you would, little sis."

"Thank you, Em."

"Nah, you're welcome."

Emmett was just leaving, but I decided to be a super bitch today and complain about Mike.

"Hey Em, you should have a word with Mike. He came here to bother me with the winery things again", I told him.

Em surely knew what game I was playing.

But hey, he was just the same.

"Of course. I will have a word with him tomorrow."

That's how Mike Newton got fired.

I know, I am such a bitch.

AN: So yeah, my first story here - or anywhere really - ever. I have written plenty but I couldn't bring myself to publish anything.
So, now I have done it, I hope I didn't completely make fool out of myself.
Should I continue? Tell me some ideas, and thoughts, anything, please. :)
I'm not really sure where this whole story is going since I don't even know if anybody wants to really read it.
And of course, this story might be full of mistakes, so please forgive me. I try.
To make me continue this, I really need even just few readers.
If not, I thank you who read this, and I will leave as quietly as possible ;) Maybe come back when I'm better or when I have different story.
