Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight. I am not making money off of this. Stephenie Meyer is due all the credit for making such wonderful books.
I want to thank Greekchic for betaing this.
This is a short chapter because I want to see if this gets any reviews and to see if people like it. So this is my take on what happens after Eclipse. It all takes place in Bellas POV, just like the books. I hope you all like it. Happy reading :-)
This story takes place after Eclipse.
Chapter 1. Charlie's reaction
"Get out of my house right this instant!" Charlie yelled at Edward. "Bella, go to your room right now! Edward, I said out! I am an officer of the law and you need to respect my commands. Now, I said out!"
I ran straight up the stairs and into my room making sure that I slammed the door as hard as I could. I couldn't believe that Charlie was acting this way.
(Well at least I was hoping he wouldn't act this way). I thought that maybe he would respect my decision in marrying Edward now that I was an adult, but I was wrong. Charlie hasn't been this mad since the day he found out I was riding a motorcycle.
I was laying on my bed sobbing into my pillow when I heard Charlie's pounding footsteps coming up the stairs towards my room. The door flung open and Charlie stormed into the room.
"What the hell do you think you are doing! You are a child, and children do not get married!" Charlie yelled. "Bella! Look at me when I am talking to you!" His face was a deep shade of red.
I shook my head and yelled, "NO!" into the pillow. I was gasping for air and breathing even harder with the lack of oxygen I was receiving.
"Bella! You are my child and you will do as you are told!" He yelled.
I sat up and looked straight into my father's eyes. "What do you want Charlie? What the hell do you want?"
I said the words before I was able to think about them. How could I be so stupid?
Charlie stood there shocked by what I had said. He walked over to the bed and gently sat down on the side of it. "Bella." He said. The redness in his face starting to disappear. "I am sorry for losing my temper like I did. It's just that your mom and I got married when we were around your age. I don't want you to make the same mistakes that we made."
Did I really hear him right? I was getting ready for him to get even more mad at me. I had never sworn at Charlie before. I must have heard him wrong.
"Bella, I really think that you are making a mistake," Charlie said in a meaningful tone. "You have your whole life in front of you. I don't want you to throw it all away for some guy."
"Dad. I know that you want the best for me." I said, and then paused. I couldn't think of anything else to say. My mind went blank.
Charlie just sat there looking straight into my eyes. I couldn't stop myself from crying. It wasn't so much of me crying because I was hurt. I was crying because I could see that Charlie truly cared.
"I know it's hard for you to understand, but I am in love with him Dad."
"I was in love with your mom when I got married to her. Things just didn't work out. We should have waited to get married Bella. I don't want you to go through the same pain that your mom and I went through."
"Dad..." What was I supposed to say? This is different? I knew that it was but how is Charlie suppose to know that it is?
Charlie looked at me as if he was waiting for me to finish what I was going to say. After he figured I wasn't going to to finish he said, "This is different? Is that what you were going to say? I want you to be happy. I want you to have everything in life that I was not able to have. I want you to go to college and have fun while you are there. I want you to be someone and go places. You are my only child Bella, and I want you to succeed in life. It might be different, but then it might not be. I am done talking about this now. I will see you in the morning."
After my door closed, I heard footsteps moving away from my door and then the sound of a door closing.
It was then when I felt something cold touch my back.
Sorry for the abrupt stop. I just want to see if i get any readers at all. If I don't I don't think that I will continue the story. So if you like the story then make sure you leave me a review:) Constructive criticism is nice.
