CHAPTER 1
BPOV
Three minutes to go:
Oh my god!
What have I done?
My life is over!
Two minutes to go:
Could time go any slower?
How am I gonna tell Charlie?
CHARLIE? Oh Crap!
One minute to go:
It's now or never.
NO. I can't do this.
I have NO other choice but to look.
My life is over.
I, Bella Swan, sixteen year old junior at Forks High School was officially freaking the hell out. In less than one minute my life could change forever. Two pink lines or one pink line would determine how the rest of my existence is lived.
'Might as well get it over with' I thought to myself. I panicked and screamed for my best friend, Alice. "ALICE! GET IN HERE. I CAN'T DO IT."
Alice in all of her 4 ft 8 in glory came running into the bathroom to see me freaking out on the side of the bathtub while not one but five little sticks lined the bathroom sink.
"Bella? It's gonna be ok. Want me to look with you?" Alice, being my best friend since the sandbox, said reassuringly while wetting a washcloth and running it along the back of my neck while I mumbled nonsensical stuff to myself trying to calm down.
"NO. I don't wanna know the results at all."
Alice just laughed at me "You do realize that not looking isn't gonna change anything right? Now stop being silly and just look already or I'm gonna do it for you!" Always the smart sensible one in this duo...well maybe trio?
"FINE!" Just then the timer I had sat on the toilet seat went off and I knew that it was now or never. I got up and grabbed Alice's hand and dragged her to the sink with me. "Ali I'm scared. You grab one and I'll grab one and we will say the results together, Ok?"
"You do realize how gross this is don't you? You literally peed on these things but I love you enough to do this for you. On the count of 3? Ready?" I loved her even more for her willingness to do this for me but honestly I would expect nothing less from my best friend. Alice was just that type of friend, she would do anything in the world for me but she knew that I would return the favor tenfold. We had been inseparable since I was 2 years old and she was 5. Looking at us from the outside most people wander how we can be such good friends because we are so different from one another but I guess that that is what make us 'work'. She is super-duper hyper and I am more laid back and calm, well that has a lot to do with my inability to walk more than 10 feet without tripping over something or someone. But I calm her down and she bring the excitement to my days in this dreary little town that we call home. We just 'work'.
"Yeah, I guess" I figured I might as well get it over with before she burst with nervous energy.
"One" Oh shit...here it goes.
"Two" NO NO NO NO NO
"Three"
Both Alice and I turned out sticks over on the sink and I gasped and she shrieked.
"Oh Ali, How am I gonna get through this with you leaving in a few days?" I couldn't believe this, here I was only 16 years old, having to deal with the biggest shock of my life, and to top off my peachy life right now, Alice is leaving for 6 months to go to Texas to help take care of her sick granny.
"Oh crap, BELLA. You're..."
Please leave reviews. Good, bad, or ugly I will take all criticisms as this is my first fanfiction to write. Any and all criticism is appreciated to help me make my writing more enjoyable for all who read it.
Thanks to a loyal reader of mine, she pointed out a few mistakes so I am going back and fixing them as she points them out. The first mistake was that I said Alice and Bella had met when they were 2 years old and I meant to say that they met when Bella was and Alice was 5. Thanks for the help, SilverMidnight46.
