Changes in the Air: Chapter One

I took a long look at the open fields, green with life and history. Those great mountains that have seen more life than I shall ever know and the rich blue skies overlook it all. I felt my heart tear as I realized that this was going to be the last time that I was able to see Montana for a very long time. Getting on my horse Levi, I rode back to the place that I once called home.

Levi was my very first horse. My mom Renee took me out on my birthday to buy him. I walked all through the stables trying to pick which one I wanted. That's when I noticed Levi. Tall, strong, and majestic were the first thoughts that came to my mind. He was everything I wasn't. I walked up to him, and touched the side of his face. Leaning his head into my hand he neighed with satisfaction. Ever since that day we have been inseparable. That is why I named him Levi, because his name means to be attached.

Levi is the only friend that I have ever had. Everyone else strayed away from me at school. I didn't mind though. I would rather be with Levi under an oak tree reading something from Jane Austin. I loved my old books almost as much as I loved Levi. He is also the only one that knows my secret.

Five years ago on my twelfth birthday, I discovered that I was not as normal as I thought I was. My birthday, that year, was a depressing one. None of the kids from school had come to my birthday party and my mom ended up being called into work. She is a veterinarian, and often gets called to help sick horses or other farm animals. I was so angry at everything that day. I remember running into my bedroom and screaming at the top of my lungs the second my mom left. That's when I noticed that various objects in my room were floating. Startled by what I saw, I stopped. When I did everything fell. It was a little while longer before anything weird happened again. I noticed that every time I was really upset objects around me would float in the air.

After a couple of years, I learned to control my power. I no longer needed to be angry or upset to use my power. Although, when I do become extremely upset I cannot control it. I sort of shut down, while everything around me turns into chaos.

This is why I am trying to stay calm while I leave everything that I love behind. My mom remarried a man named Phil. He's a minor league baseball player and travels a lot around the country. My mom stayed at home with me for a while, but I could tell that she would rather be with him. So that's where my moving comes in. My dad, Charlie, lives in a little town in Washington called Forks. So while I live with Charlie, my mom is going to put her job on hold and travel with Phil for a while. They are going to keep the house in Montana along with the hundred acres we have, so that during the off season they have a home to come to. One of my mom's clients is going to take care of Levi for me. I mean I can't exactly take a horse with me to the forest. Forks' is a small town that sees sun maybe four times a year, overgrown with trees. I'm not looking forward to all the rain, but maybe something good will come out of this. No, scratch that, nothing good can come out of this.


Grabbing the last of my bags, I haul them into my mom's Escape. I turn around and take one long look at my home. I try to fight back the tears that threatened to fall while I was telling Levi good-bye.

"Everything is going to be alright sweetie. I know things don't seem like it now, but it will be good for you and Charlie to get to know each other better," my mom cooed at me while rubbing my shoulder soothingly.

"You're right mom. I'll be fine. Besides it's not like I will never see this place again." I shrug off Renee and climb into the back seat. Putting my seatbelt on, I take a deep breath. Now would not be a good time to lose control of my emotions.

On the way to the airport, I try to take in as many memories as possible. I don't want to forget a single detail. We finally pull into the airport, and Phil parks the car on curb. I get and stretch my legs, while Phil grabs my two bags from the trunk. My mom is already starting to tear up, and I haven't even gotten on the plane yet.

Wiping away a stray tear, Renee rushes towards me and grabs me around the waste. "Honey, I'm going to miss you so much. Promise me that you will try to call everyday and write as much as you can. I want to know about everything that happens while you're living with Charlie."

I pull away slightly from her so that I can look her in the face. "Aw, mom, it's going to be alright. No reason to cry," I am trying to make her feel better, but I think I am just trying to reassure myself. "I don't know if I can call or write every day. I mean, I would run out of things to talk about I'm sure. But I will call at least a few times a week."

Renee gives me a watery smile, and pulls me to her again, "Just as long as you call Bella." Releasing me, I turn to face Phil. He is the reason I am leaving. Don't get me wrong, Phil is a great guy and I like him a lot, but if it wasn't for him I would still be with Levi. It's pretty hard to be mad at him though when he makes my mom so happy.

"Take care of her for me, kay?" I say as I give Phil a one armed hug.

"Sure thing kiddo," Phil replies as he releases me. I grab my bags and head for the door. Turing around, I smile once more at my mom and my step-dad and give them a wave.

After checking in my bags I walk to my terminal gate, and wait for the plane that is going to take me to my new home, and my new life.
