Chapter 1

Welcome to Forks

I awoke to the feeling on turbulence shaking my seat. I was finally here. Forks Washington. A place where the sun don't shine and the grass is always wet…just my kind of place.

I came to live with my dad Charlie. Ever since he divorced my mom Renee, things haven't been so good for him. He spends most of his time down at the station. He is the sheriff of the Forks Police Dept. But in a town this small, there is seriously nothing for him to do except sit in his office waiting for something remotely exciting to happen. Then when he comes home at night, he treats himself with some left over Taco Bell from like two nights ago, this man needs my help.

I came to Forks to get away from the constant nagging and bossing around from my moms newly wed Phil. But on the other hand, it looks like the list just keeps getting longer, and longer.

As I drove up to the house, I couldn't help to realize that the lawn was in desperate need of a mowing and a new paint job was definitely in store. This house looked haunted.

I got out of the car and saw my dad's cruiser sitting in the driveway. I ran into the house to great my new housemate.

"Dad?" I said as I walked into the house.

"You Home?"

"Bells? IS THAT YOU?!" I heard Charlie call from the living room.

Him and that T.V. are inseparable I swear. He gets home from work and it is like BAM! Instant television. Always watching the games.

"None other then!" I called cheerfully as he got up from his recliner and gave me a hug.

"I haven't seen you since we went to California, how long ago was that?" he asked me still in unbreakable hug mode.

"Too long." I replied. I have to admit, even though Charlie lived like a slob and came off a bit over protective at times, I still missed him a lot. I don't know if it is his innocent charm or the fact that we could sit in total silence and be perfectly comfortable, or maybe it is the fact that I can take care of him and he will tell me to stop and go act like the teenager that I am supposed to be.

Unlike Phil, who wouldn't even let me pee until I was finished roofing the whole house. I swear I was going to pee on his head. But that's not Charlie, Charlie wouldn't give a damn if it took me 2 hours to go pee. As long as the job eventually got done.

"I'm so glad you're here." He said still in hyper active hug mode. It sounded like he was trying not to cry which almost made me cry.

"Yeah me too." I said while still hugging him, this had to be one of the longest hugs on the face of the earth, it went on for like another 10 minutes with nothing but complete silence. So I casually broke it off trying not to ruin the moment.

"I'm going to go unpack my bags." I said while picking up my luggage.

"Okay, you do that." Charlie said while walking back to his recliner, of course.

I ran up the stairs and tripped over my shoelace and landed into my room. Charlie didn't seem to notice the thump, after all, I got my clumsiness from him. I threw my luggage onto the floor after I regained my balance, and started to unpack my bags.

I was just about finished with my packing when I smelt something burning downstairs. I ran down the stairs almost tripping over the last two steps to fund Charlie making dinner, or trying to.

There was a can of beans in a pot of boiling water, I mean like a whole freaking can, and I saw a metal bowl filled with what looked like it used to be soup in the microwave.

"Umm….." I said while trying to find the right ting to say.

"Need some help dad?" I asked as I was walking over to turn the stove off and powering down the microwave on my way there.

"Umm… sure Bells." He sounded confused

"Did I do something wrong?" he asked still not seeing or smelling what he had done.

"Well, metal is not good for microwaves first of all." I said while taking the metal bowl out of the microwave.

"And second of all," I poured the beans out of the can.

"The beans are supposed to be out of the can when you are cooking them" I was hiding my smile trying not to embarrass him anymore then he already was.

"Oh…"he said, still sounding confused.

"Dad, why don't I make dinner tonight? It will be…gourmet. You can go watch the game while I take care of this."

"Are you sure bells? I mean it is your first night here a…" I cut him off before he started to feel guilty.

"I insist dad, I will take care of dinner," I said while leading him into the living room,

"And you will relax." I started walking back into the kitchen, making sure he wasn't following me back in. When I knew he wasn't following me, I quickly grabbed the phone and ordered 2 large pizzas, one cheese and one combo, I thought quick, easy, and yummy, it's all good.

The pizza came in less then a half an hour and we ate and talked about memories past.

We were both done, so I cleared the plates and did the dishes. When I was done I went upstairs to take a shower and get ready for bed. I looked at the clock, 9:30pm, this would be a good time to turn in I thought to myself, I have to be fully rested for school tomorrow. I changed into some pajamas brushed my hair and my teeth, walked downstairs and told Charlie goodnight.

As I lay in bed I couldn't help but think what tomorrow would be. Tomorrow, my first day as a newbie at Forks High School.

Oh joy.
