Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight.
From the first time Bella smashed her juice box onto Edward's head at daycare, the two were inseparable as children. Being older, Edward began high school, leaving little Bella in middle school. Here he discovered popularity, the hottest girl in school and sports, abandoning his music dream. When Bella reached high school two years later, she felt left in the dust and befriended few. Upon graduation, Bella moved to Seattle, graduated from college and is looking forward to her new internship at a company. Unfortunately for her, the boy of her childhood unknowingly just moved into her apartment building. Summary inside. AH.
My first FanFiction in a LONG time. Enjoy!
Prologue
The shuffle of little feet running through a pile of leaves was heard by Charlie, whom looked out the open window set above the kitchen sink. Grasping a plate in one hand and a dishtowel in the other, he moved to open a yellow cabinet door, placing the dish inside, all while keeping an eye on his little girl. A smile graced his lips as she tripped and fell nearly face-first into the tall, well- tall for a child, pile of colorful dying leaves.
"Ow!" Bella gasped, holding her tiny hands out to catch her little body.
"Belly, are you okay?!" Edward demanded.
Edward, the neighbor boy, was nearly a year older than Bella. Charlie watched as he ran to where his friend was disappearing beneath the pile of leaves. He dug his hands inside, tugging on Bella's small arms until she was not breathing in the damp smell of old leaves.
"Ow," Bella repeated, moving to stand. She hastily brushed broken bits of leaves from her face. "Thanks, Eddie."
"You need to be more careful! I won't always be there to save you," Edward commented in a sly tone.
Bella rolled her eyes, reminding Charlie much of her mother. "You won't ever leave me Eddie. We're best friends, remember?"
Even at such a young age, Bella already had such a sarcastic tongue. Charlie brooded over the moments he would regret how cute she currently was when she was older.
"You're right, Belly. Friends forever?" Edward smiled, holding out his hand for the small girl with bright chocolate irises and disheveled mahogany brown hair.
Bella smiled. "Always!"
