Chapter 1:
Bella
The shrill of an alarm clock was nothing in comparison to the shrill of a fire-bell. Or the urgency to pull on your boots and make way for the fire engine.
At first glance, Bella Swan would seem to be timid and quiet not the second in command of her Fire squad. Being small in stature did not stop Bella from saving lives and extinguishing fires with her team. The team consisted of her uncle; Phil Swan, who was first in command; Emmett, Jacob, Sam, Jasper and Rosalie.
Bella was reasonably close to her squad, but admittedly a part of her rejoiced last week when her uncle announced his retirement. Bella was hopeful to take his place as first in command and was awaiting her promotion to his job. A part of her felt uneasy, not sure as to whether the job would be hers, or even if she would be able to withstand the pressure.
Not that there would be much pressure, since the lack of fires in Forks and La Push. Their squad covered the grounds of both, the fire-station just down the road from the police station where her father and mother worked, Charlie Swan, the Chief Police and Renee Swan, his receptionist since before they married.
Bella was young for a Firewoman, be her -only twenty-two- but most of the workers where young. Sam the oldest (bar Bella's uncle), ranking at the age of thirty-three. Twins, Jasper and Rosalie twenty-six, Emmett thirty-five and Jacob twenty.
So being second youngest didn't provide reassurance to getting her uncle's job, though Bella was cocky and thought it was most likely the job was hers.
Her excitement didn't go undetected as she danced through the station that morning. She danced over to Jasper and Rosalie –who were twins- before she tripped over her own feet.
At that moment a howl of laughter was heard behind her. Emmett stood laughing breathlessly at the situation; somehow it amused Emmett that Bella was clumsy. He thought it was funny the fact that Bella was second in command yet couldn't walk over a flat surface.
"Belly!" he grinned once his laughter had died down, pulling Bella into a tight hug.
She struggled to find her breath when he released her from his bone crushing embrace.
Emmett grinned happily before walking over to Rosalie.
"Hey baby" he growled, before kissing her deeply.
Jaspers face turned to one of disgust before he pulled Bella off with him. He pulled her into the stations small kitchen area and poured them booth coffee.
He handed her a mug and sighed. "That shit is sick, man" he blanched referring to Emmett and his sister. Ever since a few weeks ago, when they got together, Jasper could barely look at them.
"Hey, you'll get over it" Bella smiled, patting his back.
Jasper groaned. "Yeah, if I pour acid on my brain"
Bella chuckled before adding creamer to her coffee and sitting down with it and a book in her hands.
"Wuthering Heights? Again Bella?" Jasper teased.
Bella shot him a look of disbelief "Do you really think I would put it down?"
Jasper shook his head before giving greeting to Sam and Jacob who had just walked through the doorless frame. They had unhinged all the doors so that in a rush nothing would stand in their way. Rose and Bella of course thought this was ridiculous yet affective.
"Hey guys." Jake and Sam greeted in unison.
"Hi" Bella smiled back at them before returning to her book.
"Liking a little bit of Headclinn" Jake teased.
Bella laughed, but had a serious look in her eye "It's Heathcliff, Jake, Heathcliff" she said, holding back a glare.
"Jeez, so touchy" he ruffled her hair.
Bella swatted his hand away to glare. "So, anyway. Leah was wondering if you wanted t come to dinner tonight?" Jake smiled.
Jake and Leah had been together since the innocent (or in this case not so innocent) age of fifth-teen. They had fell madly in love the day that Bella would rather not remember. It was late September and Jake and Bella where on their bicycles. They were passing the Clearwater's house when Leah stepped outside. Shortened; Jake was so blind-sighted by Leah's beauty that he crashed his bike in Bella's and sent her flying. In revenge she never let him sign her casts, it was petty but she was bed bound for a few months, with three broken limbs.
But she smiled knowing she had helped bring them together. Since they both carried an unconscious Bella up the Road to the good Dr.'s house.
Carlisle was a nice, compassionate man. His wife Esme just as loving. This not only had been the day where she brought Leah and Jake together but the day where she also befriended Alice.
The thought of Alice had brought Bella back to the present, she frowned slightly shooting Jake a sad look. "Sorry, I promised Alice I would have dinner with her family tonight since her brother is coming home"
"Alice has a brother?" Jasper asked in confusion.
Bella merely nodded. "Yeah, but he moved to Chicago when he was eleven to live with his aunt Elizabeth and uncle Edward"
"Why?" Jake asked bluntly.
Bella shrugged. "Why the fuck should I know?"
Jake laughed, shaking his head at his best friend. "You little bitch" he teased, pulling her into a headlock.
They laughed, Bella struggling in Jake's arms, swearing and laughing at him.
They continued their battle until someone cleared their throat from the frame where the door used to be.
They stopped abruptly and turned, giving sheepish grins to Bella's uncle or in this case the Captain.
"Having fun, ladies?" he smirked.
Jake sulked while Bella giggled. "Aye, aye Captain" Bella grinned, Phil shot her a disapproving frown but shook it off in amusement.
It was at that moment Bella spotted the most gorgeous man behind her uncle. He had a strong, square jaw. A classic straight nose and beautiful pale skin but the most attractive features of the man was the copper/bronze dishevelled hair on his head and his stunning, godly green eyes.
Bella's jaw dropped and the man chuckled. She blushed, closing her mouth and directing her eyes elsewhere.
"McCarty, Hale get your asses in here!" Phil bellowed.
Emmett and Rosalie both warily stepped into the kitchen, confused.
Phil cleared his throat, sending Bella a sympathetic glance but for the life of her she couldn't understand why.
"Well, you all know about my retirement..." Phil started, chuckling nervously and avoiding Bella's curious gaze.
They all murmured proving his point. Bella nodded in anticipation of what was to come.
She met the eyes of the godly man behind Phil, to see a look of accomplishment in them.
"Well, Edward here will be replacing me"
As the words left Phil's mouth, Bella's smile decrease, the squad and Phil looked at her apologetically.
She grimaced, looking elsewhere not letting the tears well up. She refused to. Bella had dreamt of replacing her uncle since the news, she had always wanted to lead the team. Ever since that day. She remembered it clearly, a blazing fire at the Stanley's house. The smoke and red flickers at every angle.
Wandering upon the street, she phoned and alerted her uncle. He told her to stay far away from the house and just wait. Bella of course, being the stubborn child she was, ignored him and ran towards the cry in the house.
She had crawled through the dog flap and straight into where the fire originated, the kitchen. There sitting in the corner was Jessica, scared and unmoving. Fear paralyzing her little body.
Bella took Jessica's hand and led her pushed her through the dog-flap just before the trimming upon the door fell, blocking Bella's way out. When Phil arrived to see a sobbing, panicked Jessica trying to pull the board from the door he knew instantly what happened. Wasting no time in barging into the house. It had been Jessica's parents fault, trusting their daughter to be alone, not thinking she would try and cook.
Sure, Bella had been grounded by Charlie and Renee for two months but the sense of pride was worth it, to know she had got Jessica out of the fire.
She turned a fierce glare towards Edward and Phil before storming out, Rose and Jake hot on her tail, willing to comfort her. But she no longer need comfort, she was mad, murderous and drained.
Bella had been wanting this since that day and some stranger just came along and took what was hers.
"Asshole!" she screeched, when she was a good enough distance away.
"Which one?" Jake tried to lighten the mood with a smile.
Bella unleashed all her force into glowering at Jake, he cowered backwards, never having seen his best friend this angry before. Bella was usually compared to a angry kitten not a enraged lion, which is what Jake compared her to now.
"Both, he knew how much I wanted this! And that fucking sexy idiot, stealing my job I have a right to pull his fucking stunning hair from his scalp!"
Rose spluttered a chocking laugh, whilst Jake tried to hold his back.
"You bunch of fucking children" Bella sighed, walking off.
When she returned back to the station, Jasper, Emmett and Sam gave her a hug.
Jasper told her that Edward had already left to go an unpack at his new house and Phil went home to Bella's aunt Bessie.
Bella groaned, storming up and down the hall, muttering insults and being all over bitter. She had already decided upon her hatred for Edward and was going to make his job anything but easy.
. . .
So what do you all think, I like the job, this means things can be really tense and sexually frustrating. So Bella will go back home to her and Alice's house next to get ready for dinner at the Cullens. What will happen, hmm? Hehe.
