Chapter 1 - The World's End

I was sitting in my room doing homework. It was five o' clock and I was tired from the long Saturday shopping with Jessica and Angela. They went to shop for their dresses. They were attending the Winter formal. I told them I couldn't go because I was going to be in La Push with my dad. We were going to go visit some family friends. A lie, of course. I wasn't dancing. I could barely walk across a flat stable surface, let alone dance in heels.

I had just finished my Trig homework when the phone rang. I rushed as quickly as possible, without damaging myself, down the stairs. I picked up the phone and answered.

"Hello?" I asked.

"Is this Isabella Swan?" A man asked.

"Bella, but yes." I answered.

"I'm Officer Forge. We need you to come to the hospital, Charlie was in an accident." He sounded serious. The phone slipped form my hand…oh no. No, Charlie couldn't be hurt. He couldn't. I needed him. I was alone in this world without him.

"Miss….Miss?" Officer Forge called on the phone.

I finally got back in control and picked the phone up. "Officer Forge…is…is he okay?" I didn't know what else to say. I was worried. I needed him. He was my Dad, the only one I had left. My mother died when I was three of cancer. He promised me he would always be there.

"Bells, he's in real bad shape. The doctors don't think he'll make it. You need to come down here soon." He said gravely.

All I managed to whisper was an "okay." Then I hung up and grabbed my keys and coat. I closed the door behind me and ran to my truck. Tears were streaming down my face, clouding my vision. I wouldn't be able to drive like this. I took deep breaths and tried counting to ten. I took a moment to collect myself and then I started the engine. The pavement flew beneath my tires as I hurried through the streets of Forks, Washington.

When I saw the large white building, the hospital, I felt fear grip my heart. What if I was too late. What if I didn't make it in time? Will he get better? I parked my truck in the handicap section, I really didn't care at this point in time. If I got a ticket, who cared. My dad was the chief of police. IS Bella, IS. I repeated to myself. I needed to be hopeful. Maybe Waylon Forge was wrong.

I shut my truck off and jumped out of the cab. I slammed the door, sending rust specks everywhere. I ran, more like stumbled, my way inside the hospital. I ran straight past the receptionist and to the nurse's station. "Charlie Swan! What room is he in?" I blurted out, panting from running.

"He's currently in radiology, take a seat and we'll let you know when you can see him." A snooty nurse replied. She turned her head back to the other nurse she had been gossiping with.

I wanted to argue, but I figured it would be pointless. I went over to the seats the nurse had pointed to. I sat down and tapped my feet impatiently on the tiled floor. I thought back to when I first moved here a year ago. Charlie was so excited, though he didn't show it. That's how we were similar. We both kept are emotions reined in. We kept to ourselves and didn't mind silence. Silences between Charlie and I weren't awkward. They were pleasant. I was more like Charlie than my mother. My mother was scatter-brained, but we were close. And when she d-. I stopped the thought. I was already feeling nauseous and if I thought of her I'd be an emotional wreck.

Deciding I needed to preoccupy my mind, I thought of the visits with Charlies friends. We went to the Blacks sometimes, but Charlie wasn't as close to them as he was to the Cullens. In the past year though, we had only visited the Cullens two times. I briefly met them, but they all seemed nice and rich. Carlisle Cullen was a doctor here at this very hospital. He and Charlie had been good friends since the Cullens moved here two years ago. I thought of Carlisle's adopted children. There was Alice, the pixie one. She had short black hair and liked to shop. We made plans to go shopping once, but I had to bow out because I got the flu. Jasper was Alice's boyfriend, even though they lived in the same house. It seemed strange but I guess they aren't blood related so it didn't bother me. There was Emmett, who was dating Rosalie. Both were very intimidating. Rosalie was extremely beautiful. She made every girl feel self conscious. Emmett was really….BIG. He was muscular and reminded me of a body builder. There was also Edward.

"Bella?" Carlisle appeared from around the corner. He looked extremely sad.

"Carlisle!" I recognized him by his golden eyes and blonde hair.

"Bella, I think you should sit back down." He told me. Oh no, this isn't good. I did as he asked. I didn't notice that I was biting on my lip. I finally felt the pain and stopped. I couldn't afford the smell of blood now. I was already nauseous enough.

"Bella, Charlie-Charlie's gone. He died on the x-ray table. He lost to much blood. We tried to get him stable but we needed to check his head to make sure his brain wasn't damaged. He's gone Bella." I felt the world crashing down around me. I burst in to tears and fell out of my chair at Carlisle's feet. I sobbed all over the floor.

"He can't be! He promised he wouldn't leave me." I was an emotional wreck. I was screaming at the top of my lungs. Carlisle got a nurse to come over and sedate me. At first, I didn't think it was helping. I cried harder and screamed louder. Then I felt the sleepiness and my screams turned into soft whimpers.

"Bella, it's alright. It's going to be okay." I felt myself being lifted from the hospital floor and carried to a room.

"No it won't. It won't be okay." I sobbed.

But I was so tired. I couldn't take it. The night closed over me and the last thing I remember was being lowered down onto a hospital bed.

And that concludes the first chapter. I hope I didn't mess up Bella's character in the end. She might be a little OC. She was really in bad shape. Edward and the other Cullens come into play more in the next chapter. I will probably have it up by tonight so check back. Please review! If you have any suggestions leave them in your review! Remember, reviews = happy Cullen boys! lol
