Chapter One: Getting the hell out of there!
BPOV
'Thump Thump Thump'
I quickly closed my laptop and tried to hide the tears that were steadily flowing down my cheeks as my brother came up the stairs to get me.
"Knock Knock Bells, you ready to go yet?"
"Yeah Em, I'll be down in a minute" I said forcing a smile onto my face. Emmett looked from my face to the sleek laptop sitting on my bed and frowned.
"Bella, have you been on Myspace again?" I nodded "Ugh why!?! You know that all it does is make you upset. Were leaving and starting over new, its time to let everything go and be happy. Please Bells try for me?"
"Your right Em, no one at boarding school will know me. Starting over will be good, and yes I will try to be happy" I smiled "Now lets make like trees and leave this effing town!"
"Bella, you know I love you and you're my favorite sister. But PLEASE don't try to be funny, we all know that's my job!" Emmett teased
"First of all, I'm your only sister! And second, WHATEVER" I had to laugh at my big bear of a brother, he may be annoying but I know he loves me.
After getting everything down stairs into our cars I took one last look at myself in the mirror, black skinny jeans, neon blue t-shirt, black vans and of course nothing could complete my look other than my long, extremely layered dark brown hair with just enough side bangs. My new style wasn't anything like it used to be a few months ago, back then you could kind of tell that Emmett and I were twins even though I am about half his size. Emmett was your typical jock, with t-shirts and jeans and of course his famous captain's football jersey but he wasn't a jerk which made him even more popular.
After checking my room one more time for anything I might have forgotten, I grabbed my purse and laptop bag and headed down the stairs. Before I reached the bottom I was pulled into a bone crushing hug from my mother Renee.
"Oh baby, I can't believe you are going to boarding school! Its just to weird, but I know that its for the best…I just hope that you can find happiness again there." She cried.
"Thanks mom, I have a good feeling about this…its going to be great." My parents had been through so much these last few months with me, and I would never be able to thank them enough for all they have done.
After a quick goodbye from my father Charlie it was time for me and Emmett to hit the road.
"Alright Bells, the drive from here to Seattle is about 4 hours away depending on traffic…so just follow in your car behind me and we'll get there in no time." Em said.
"Kay brother bear, but first can we stop for gas?" my baby was practically running on fumes and it needed to be filled before the commute to Seattle.
I owned a 1966 Ford Mustang, and it was my favorite thing in the world…I completely rebuilt the engine which of course made it fast enough to beat those dinky European cars. So to say that I was proud of this car would be a serious understatement!
"Whatever you say sister dearest" Emmett laughed.
The nearest gas station was only about a minute and a half away, so it didn't take long to get there. My family and I lived in Forks, Washington, basically Forks was the definition of a small town…where not only did everyone know you, they knew your business too. I used to be okay with living here, up until about a few months back when everything changed.
We got to the gas station and I was out of my car, had the gas pump in, and credit card swiped within thirty seconds…not bad if I do say so myself. I may have looked crazy to everyone that was staring but that was better than the other things that most likely popped into their head at the mention of my name. As soon as my tank was completely full, I grabbed the receipt and floored it out of the parking lot…I just couldn't take a chance of seeing him or anyone else from Forks High, I was done with this place and as I drove past the sign that said "You are now leaving Forks" a real genuine smile crept onto my face.
"This is it" I said to myself and continued driving down the curvy highway, towards Seattle, Washington AKA my new home.
A/N: So I hope that you all liked the first chapter, and hopefully I will be updating again soon…but that mostly counts on the feedback I get on the story so far! So be sure to review. Like I said at the top, this story means a lot to me…and im glad to be writing it. Thanks everyone…love tasha.
