Chapter 1
"Introductions"
Bella's POV
I had just moved to Forks to get away from my mom. She just got remarried and insisted that I go on the honeymoon with them, so I don't have to go live with Charlie, my dad. Instead of putting myself through that torture, I figured I would go live with my dad.
Don't get me wrong I love my dad. It is just that awful town. It rains constantly, there may be and I mean may be five days a year when there is no precipitation falling from the heavens.
The plane ride to Forks was short, but seemed so long! I was glad to plant my feet firmly on the ground. I hate flights, so that constitutes a huge hate of flying!
Charlie was there waiting for me at the gate. I did not notice however all the teenagers standing behind him at first.
"Bella," my dad said as he pulled me into a big uncomfortable hug. After releasing me from the hug he put his arm around my back and turned me towards the group of kids.
"I brought some kids along, so that on the first day of school you will at least know a few kids," he explained. I just smiled not knowing what else to do.
"Hey Bella," they all said at once, after my dad told me why they are here.
"Hey," was my meek reply as I blushed like crazy.
"Bella, this Edward, Alice, Angela, and Mike. They are all around your age so you should have some classes with them," Charlie said.
As Charlie kept rambling on about school and classes my eyes kept glancing towards the first kid my dad introduced me too. Edward I think his name is. He has bronze colored hair that is messy disarray. He also has the most perfect emerald green eyes I have ever seen. I could get lost in those eyes. I quickly looked away when he started to stare at me intently. As I realized in my daydreaming I instantly drew a blank on everyone else's names!
When I finally pulled myself together, I noticed the girl next to Edward was extremely short! Maybe 5'4"! She reminds me of a pixie with her short black spiky hair. When she noticed me looking at her she instantly threw her arms around me and said, "We are going to be great friends, and I can't wait to take you shopping with me!"
She is so hyper all I could do was nod and make a mental not as to not give her anything with caffeine!
As I continued my scan of the group I noticed the next girl, she was a little taller than me with dark brown hair, and she looked just as shy and awkward as I did!
The last boy standing there had a huge smile on his face. To be honest I was terrified, he looked like he wanted to jump me the moment Charlie was gone!
"Shall we get your bags and be on our way back home Bells?" Charlie said to snap me out of my internal introduction of the kids.
"Sure, Dad" I said as I started to head towards the baggage claim area.
As I pulled my two suitcases off the belt I heard a very alarming gasp from behind me.
Alice was shaking her head, I found out her name as all the kids were talking on the short walk to the baggage claim.
"Bella," she exclaimed, "If this is all the clothes you brought we definitely need to take you shopping on Saturday!"
As she read my internal debate she said, "No complaints Bella, you're going and that is that!"
As I was about to protest Edward was by my side whispering in my ear, "You won't win against Alice, you might as well consent to it." Then he laughed the most gorgeous and perfect laugh I ever heard! He sounded like an angel to me.
I just smiled and shook my head in agreement, saying, "Saturday it is then," With that statement of defeat I heard Edward laugh again saying "good choice."
I swear both times he laughed my heart skipped a beat.
Charlie then interrupted again, "Come on kids lets go so Bella can unpack."
Alice shook her head and said, "yeah lets hurry so Bella can put away her clothes in ten minutes, then we can order Pizza!"
With that we all loaded into a van, surely not Charlie's. The only car he has is a police cruiser. Did I mention my dad is Police Chief to the good people of Forks? That totally reminds me I need to make sure I buy a car before the first day of school, no way in hell am I going to school in a police car.
"Let's turn on some music!" Mike said.
"No, let's play 20 questions so we can all get to know Bella better!" Alice said.
As we drove they all bombarded me with questions, well almost everyone, Edward just sat and listened and laughed at almost everyone of my answers.
After an hour we pulled up to the house, it is much smaller than I remember, but it is now my new home. I sighed getting out of the van.
Mike eagerly went to the back to grab all my bags. I told him thanks.
"No problem, by the way you are one of the hottest girls I have ever met Bella, It is great to meet you!"After saying that, Mike ran upstairs with my suitcases.
Oh great he is going to be a problem I mumbled to myself internally wishing Charlie overheard what he just said.
A few minutes later Mike said he had to go because he had a shift at the sports store.
Angela was the next to leave. She said, "I will go shopping Saturday with you and alice that way it is not so scary!"
I laughed and sad that would be great!
That left the gorgeous god and the pixie.
"Well Bella we better get going it was nice meeting you," Edward said reaching to shake my hand.
My heart sank when he said they both had to leave, were they together?
"Alright, Alright, Edward!" Alice stated extremely exasperated.
She turned to me and said, "Be ready tomorrow by 9 AM."
"Okay, brother dearest, let's go." She told Edward.
I said okay I will be ready and she probably thought I was thrilled because I had a huge smile on my face. Not because we were going shopping but because Edward was Alice's brother!
I turned to my dad, wanting to know more about the kids, I asked, "Who were all those kids?"
"Oh well, Mike's parent own Newton's Sporting Goods in town, Angela is a nice girl who lives next door, and Edward and Alice are Doctor Cullen's kids, a real nice family they are."
"Okay dad, well I am going to go unpack and then probably go to bed since it will be an early morning. Thanks for everything, good night!" I called as I ran up the stairs to unpack my pitiful wardrobe.
"Night Bells, It's good to have you home," my dad called back before I closed my bedroom door.
It seemed like it did only take ten minutes for me to unpack everything. I quickly grabbed my PJs and my bag of bathroom necessities before heading to the bathroom for a shower. As soon as I laid down I was out cold!
