Introduction
Forks, Washington, a small town located in the Northwest, on the Olympic Peninsula. It had been many years since I had been back to Forks, back home.
Though sometimes it feels as though it's only been a short time since I was last in this dreary, quiet, little town. I spent my childhood on the beaches of La Push, and beneath the expansive canopies of the moss covered forests surrounding my home.
My father, Charlie Swan, had been the Chief of Police for local Police Department. My erratic mother, Renee, was a kindergarten teacher at the local elementary school. I had spent a peaceful and fulfilling childhood growing up among the endless rain and cloud cover which encompasses this quaint town.
Today I return to the place of my birth to begin class as a new student to the illustrious Forks High School, home to the Fighting Spartans.
Not as I am looking forward to a new school, or meeting new high school students for that matter.
Unfortunately, it appears that I can no longer delay the inevitable. School will begin in under 2 hours. So I do as I must, it is an essential part to being in my family, to being "Bella Cullen"
