Chapter 1

BPOV

"ISABELLA SWAN GET DOWN HERE THIS INSTANT!" Charlie's voice easily carried upstairs. I could obviously sense I was in trouble but I couldn't care less.

I slowly got off my bed and went deliberately slow to Charlie. "What?" I easily drawled.

Charlie puffed up even more at my attitude. " What is this NONSENSE I hear about you and Jacob Black?"

I rolled my eyes and insepected my fingernails. Total princessy attitude. "Well it depends on what you hear," I drawled. I was being rude, stubborn and I was wrong. I knew it but that didn't mean I cared.

Charlie's eyes bugged out of his head, "WHAT? Are you telling me you are really dating Jacob Black of all people!"

I shrugged non-commitally but in a way to let Charlie know that yeh I was indeed dating Jacob Black. I personally didn't understand what Charlie didn't like about Jacob. He was a girl's dream of her perfect guy...my dream of a perfect guy. He was the hottest guy in school, hung out with the coolest people and somehow chose me to be his girlfriend. I know it sounds shallow that this is what I considered his best qualities but they were his BEST qualities. On the negative side I knew he was a player, always barely scraped a pass in exams and had been arrested by Charlie on atleast two counts...but one all that was cast aside Jacob was really a nice guy...deep down inside...somewhere...REALLY DEEP DOWN.

Charlie banged the dining table with his fist jerking me out of my daydream, "Well Miss Isabella Swan I forbid you from dating Jacob Black and from now on you are to come home DIRECTLY FROM SCHOOL UNDERSTAND!" I narrowed my eyes at Charlie. There was no damn way was I going to let HIM boss me around...HIM the man who left my mother alone when I was three...HIM who then fought my mother in court for full responsibility of me until I turned eighteen...HIM who because of that my mother had a heart attack and passed away after one year of depression...HIM who was now dating Sue Clearwater whom I had made it clear that I hated even though I never forbid him from seeing her...HIM who would no longer be in control of me. This was the man I'd grown to loathe.

I controlled my expression and said, "Dad...are you forgetting something?" He continued to look confused, "Today is my birthday," he still showed no reaction I sighed, "My eighteenth birthday."

Understanding dawned in Charlie's eyes. He'd lost track of me and frankly couldn't care less. I stared coldly at him. It was part of the reason I was acting so hormonal. He'd forgotten my birthday. The man who claimed to care the most about me...had forgotten my birthday. Ironic isn't it. The very birthday he'd forgotten was being USED against him.

"What," Charlie murmured.

"You heard me correctly don't worry," I forged on in that cold calculating tone of voice, "Today was the day I turned eighteen, today was the day you lost control over me, TODAY WAS THE DAY I BECAME A LEGAL ADULT!" It was then I realized I'd been screaming. Charlie looked close to tears.

I stood panting in little jags waiting for Charlie to break the silence; I refused to be the one to break it.

"WHY?" Charlie's voice broke and my heart throbbed momentarily but I shut off my emotions.

"Because it's time you saw you don't rule everything, you may be Police Chief but remember this you can't control the people."

Charlie turned slowly and with slumped shoulders began to walk into the living room. I wasn't through with him yet so I followed.

As he slumped in the recliner, I shouted, "HEY CHARLIE!" He turned slowly.

"Does this mean you want me to clear out? I'd be more than willing!"

"Do what you want...you're legal now so why are you asking me that?" he whispered before closing his eyes and massaging his temples.

I stared. Fine! If that was his reply well that would be the result!

I stomped angrily up the stairs and grabbed my old suitcase from under my bed. Blindly I began grabbing and wilding throwing all of my possessions into the bag. My eyes filled with unshed moisture; I willed myself not to cry.

After clearing my room of EVERYTHING I closed my suitcase and looked one last time around. I saw to it I'd left nothing behind; nothing for Charlie to remember me by. Silently, I lugged my suitcase down the stairs and let myself out the front door. There would be no need to let Charlie know I was going. I stashed my suitcase into the passenger seat of my truck and put the key in the ignition. I glanced out the window at the house. The house that I'd spent most of my life. The house I grew up to hate however no matter how much I hated it I didn't want to leave it in this manner. Oh well that was life. Nothing ever turned out as expected.

I started my truck and sped out of the Swan driveway as fast as my truck would allow. I felt free. It was a feeling I hadn't expected after what I had done but I basked in it. Atleast it wasn't guilt!

I drove, a bit recklessly, until I could see Jacob's house in the distance. I wondered what he would say; what we would do now.

I pulled into the Black residence driveway and gingerly went up to the door and knocked. I waited. No response. I tried again. I saw figures shifting and before I knew it, the door was yanked open and Jacob was looking down at me.

"Bella!" he uttered out of suprise or concern I couldn't distinguish.

CPOV(Charlie)

I'd stormed home from work after a slow torturous day at work filled with gossiping old ladies.(my collegues who sadly are indeed not old or ladies). Rumors. Rumors. More rumors. All about Bella. My daughter. Whom was suspected with a suspect...Mr. Damn Gorgeous Playing Player Jacob Black. I was confused. I was shocked. I needed to pee.

I relieved myself and continued through work listening to the same things flitting through the halls.

"Did you hear Chief Swan's daughter is dating Mr. Bad boy Jacob Black..."

"Oh my gosh I'm so sorry for Chief Swan his daughter is dating that mongrel Jacob Black!"

"Jacob Black!'

"Yes the one down on the reserve!"

All through the damned day! Never ending. Constantly. Never ceasing. All the words in the dictionary that meant Never stopping/ Never ending.

By the end of the work day I was in a foul mood and only one thing reverberated through my skull 'Find Bella and clear up those rumors.' Even though I was a cop I broke almost all the laws simply to get home to Bella because of a rumor.

I'd intended to peacefully and rationally sort out the problems with Bella but it seemed my brain was following a trail of its own and as I stepped through the door, I hear my voice yelling, "ISABELLA SWANN GET DOWN HERE THIS INSTANT!"

I puffed up even more at Bella's attitude. " What is this NONSENSE I hear about you and Jacob Black?"

She rolled her eyes and inspected her fingernails. Total princessy attitude. "Well it depends on what you hear," she drawled.

My eyes bugged out of my head, "WHAT? Are you telling me you are really dating Jacob Black of all people!"

She shrugged non-commitally but in a way to let me know that yeh she was indeed dating Jacob Black.

I banged the dining table with my fist jerking her out of a daydream, "Well Miss Isabella Swan I forbid you from dating Jacob Black and from now on you are to come home DIRECTLY FROM SCHOOL UNDERSTAND!" She narrowed her eyes at me.

I could see as she controlled her expression and said, "Dad...are you forgetting something?" I continued to look confused, "Today is my birthday," I still showed no reaction she sighed, "My eighteenth birthday."

I understood exactly what she was implying.

"What," I murmured.

"You heard me correctly don't worry," she forged on in that cold calculating tone of voice, "Today was the day I turned eighteen, today was the day you lost control over me, TODAY WAS THE DAY I BECAME A LEGAL ADULT!" It was then she realized she'd been screaming. I feared I was close to tears.

She stood panting in little jags waiting for me to break the silence; She refused to be the one to break it.

"Because it's time you saw you don't rule everything, you may be Police Chief but remember this you can't control the people."

As I slumped in the recliner, she shouted, "HEY CHARLIE!" I turned slowly.

"Does this mean you want me to clear out? I'd be more than willing!"

"Do what you want...you're legal now so why are you asking me that?" I whispered before closing my eyes and massaging my temples.

end of flashback

I could sense Bella's presence as she truged as silently as possible through the house and out the door.

Father's instinct.

She never turned around, never once glanced at me. I knew she was attempting a quiet escape and as the roar of the engine of her old truck reached my ears, I almost cracked a smile except...my daughter had just left me.

It reminded me of when Renee had left me, Bella's mother. For a man named Phil. Apparently to her he was every woman's dream...he was everything to her I wasn't. She was right about that. It later turned out that he was a player and had gotten another woman pregnant. He had bravely and virtuously married her and was the legal father to her child. I thought he had only done it out of fear that he would lose a most precious part by the hands of the other woman's father. I couldn't agree more. I felt the same way about that moronic excuse for a dog, Jacob Black. If I ever heard he harmed my baby...he was dead meat. Literally.

I couldn't bring myself to hate Bella for walking out on me, for walking out of my life. I blamed myself. Maybe if I'd found some way to salvage my relationship with Renee and let bygones be bygones Bella would have grown up happily amongst her two parents with who knows...some younger brothers and sisters. We'd have been a perfect family. With all the joys of life. I didn't do it. I ruined Renee. Taunted her, mocked her and I lived with that remorse bundled up inside of me; never to be let out.

That was the ways and rules of life; I had to live with it.
