Disclaimer: I dont own any of the twilight characters, Stephenie Meyer does. I'm just playing with them.

This is a Bella/Jacob story so dont get upset if she isnt with Edward. Rated M because of lemons, violence and language.

Chapter One - "Welcome Home"

Forks. As I sat here in the police cruiser with Charlie I looked out the window thinking about my life. I was going to miss Phoenix. Not just the environment but my mother who lived there. Already I could see that Forks was going to be hell. It was colder, damp, it looked like the type of environment you see in the horror movies or the dramas that have people committing suicide or something.

"So Bella, I got you a truck to drive. It's kind of a welcome to forks gift" Charlie said snapping me out of my own world. He must have seen the look on my face as I looked at him because he quickly added. "Its not brand new. You remember Billy Black? His son Jacob rebuilt the engine"

"Jacob? All I remember him being able to do picking at me" I chuckled slightly.

I remembered my summers with Charlie. Billy being his best friend meant that I would see Jacob and jacob's older sisters, Rachel and Rebecca. Charlie and Billy liked to fish and would bring me and Jacob along leaving the twins behind because they were too into the girly things. I was never afraid of being a tomboy, it had came natural to me. Jacob would chase me with worms, try to make me kiss a fish, knock me into the lake and I even made him swallow a minnow which resulted in him crying afterwards to Billy saying the fish was swimming in his stomach.

As I was thinking about my past we pulled into the driveway of Charlie's house which was now my home as well. I hadnt came last summer and I still hadnt missed anything. it looked the same as always, that was one thing about Charlie, you could depend on him to never change. He was a dependable person, and it was a good thing.

I got out of the cruiser and grabbed a couple bags before Charlie helped with the others leading me into the house and upstairs to my room. Charlie excused himself after putting my bags into the room and I started to unpack. I happened to glance at a clock in my room and noticed the time. I had enough time to cook dinner, eat then get ready for bed.

After unpacking I went downstairs to see Charlie sitting in his recliner watching ESPN with a beer in his hand. I shook my head slightly before walking into the kitchen looking for something I could cook. I opened the fridge to see not a big choice of foods to work with, there was some sandwich meat thought. Did he have bread? I looked around until I spotted some bread. I would need to go grocery shopping tomorrow after school to get food for us to live on, I didnt want to eat takeout every night.

School. The thought made me shudder, I hated the new girl feeling. And tomorrow I would be in an environment I didnt know, definitely not on my top list of things to do. But maybe I should look at it as a new start, to make a new name for myself. yeah right.

"Ch-Dad what kind of sandwich do you want? Turkey or ham?" I asked peeking my head to look into the living room.

"Ham." He shouted so I could hear him before yelling at the screen for a wrong move a player did.

I grabbed a couple of plates and opened the bread bag taking out the pieces. I placed 4 pieces on one plate and 4 on the other, that meant 2 sandwiches each. I grabbed the ham opening the package and putting some onto the pieces of bread meant for Charlie before adding a few condiments he would enjoy before putting the ham away. I prefered turkey, so I did the same with the turkey adding it to my bread. After I was finished I grabbed Charlie another beer as well as a soda for myself walking into the living room handing him his plate and drink before sitting down with my own.

We ate in silence, i wasnt about to ask about the game he was watching, and after I was finished I got up and kissed his cheek. "I'm going to go get ready for bed I have an early start tomorrow. I will go grocery shopping when I get out of school too"

"ok bells, I'm going to be gone to work by time you leave for work. The keys to the truck are hanging up by the door." He said giving me a smile. "I'll make sure to leave some money too for grocery shopping"

I nodded and took off upstairs preparing for bed. After a quick shower and changing into my pjs I curled up in the bed and stared at the wall until sleep took over. That night I had a dreamless, very fulfilling sleep.

When I woke up I was full rested, but I knew it would be short lived because of the day ahead of me. I grabbed the first outfit i saw and tried to make myself presentable. I felt like something was going to happen today I just didnt know what.

After I made my way downstairs I found some poptarts and I ate them cold as I grabbed the money from the table along with the keys of the truck as I headed out the door. I dont know how I didnt see the truck yesterday because as I stepped outside it was right there and I smiled. It was just like something I would drive. I wasnt a big flashy person, so this was right up my alley. I needed to thank Charlie, Billy and Jacob when I saw them. Maybe Charlie could invite them over to dinner tonight.

I got into the truck and listened as it roared to life before I pulled off towards school. I found a parking spot and got out of the truck feeling the breeze hit me in the face. Ugh, I hated Forks' weather already. I could hear the chatter of people around me but I ignored them walking through the school doors feeling hundreds of eyes staring at me. Oh great, let the new girl judgement begin.
