Part 1 Cheater Cheater

The Diner

I moved to the rainy town of Forks Washington to live with my Dad, Charlie. My mom had remarried and was traveling with her new husband, Phil, a lot. It's not that I don't like Phil; he's a really great guy. It's just that when mom has to stay home with me instead of go with Phil she gets sad, so I decided to spend quality time with Charlie. And it has been great so far. I have a lot of friends, both guys and girls. And I have two best friends, Angela and Jake. I also have a boyfriend. But you will learn all about my life, six years after I moved to Forks, where it really feels like home.

Bella POV

This was it. I was sitting across from Mike Newton. He was so sweet. And I loved him. We were going out and we were at Big Al's Diner my absolute favorite place to be, though normally I came with Angela or Jake. Suddenly Mike's phone rang and he looked at the text. I couldn't read it but I supposed it was his parents or his team. He was part of the basketball team. He wasn't the best, but he was one of the starters.

"Sorry Bells, I got to go."
" Oh that's fine, ill just have Jake come pick me up." I said remembering my best friend.

He stopped in his tracks "You know I don't like him near you. "

"Oh come on, he's my best friend, we are practically related, actually I wouldn't be surprised if we were, they way we act the same."

"I still don't like it; maybe you should call Angela instead"

"Fine I'll call Angela, but only because Jake upsets you. Ang should be off work by now."

He Muttered "thanks sweetie" and my heart flew.

I sighed as he walked away. I whipped my phone out and pressed Angela's speed dial. She answered on the first ring, man she was quick.

"Bella?"

"Hey Angela, err Mike had to leave so now I am stuck at Big Al's."

"Oh I wish I could come get you but they are making me shut down." She told me reluctantly, she hated staying late; our boss was such a jerk.

"Wow that totally sucks." I replied symptheticly. Shutting down was not a favorite job at Fridays.

"How about you call Jake and get him to take you home?"

"Mike hates Jake, with a passion. I don't know why, Jakes always as nice as possible to him,"
" Hun , its because he's jealous, he knows how close you two are, and he doesn't want any boy around his girl, hey you could get uncle Al to take you home." Al was Angela's uncle. In her opinion the best uncle ever and I had to agree.

"Well, Al is a bit mad right now, some new guy in town thinks he can get smart with him."
" Idiot, you don't mess with guy who is 6'5 and has an arm bigger than you, and goes by Big Al."

"I know, its pathetic, he's not even bigger than me, and he's trying to outsmart Al, not going to happen, Al is smarter than he looks, a lot smarter." Al is one of the head doctors at Forks hospital, and runs a diner. His wife, Miranda runs it while he is at work.

"What about Miranda?
"She is sick, though she looks like she about to kill some dude who is irritating on her."
" Where do these people get off messing with her, she maybe a small little thing, but she's a black belt."

"Never mind, I'll just call Jake. He should be coming here after work to eat anyway. By the way what time do I work tomorrow?"

"Okay, umm you work 4 to 8 tomorrow; you took over Joshes shift this week, poor kids sick as a dog."

"I'll send some soup with his homework tomorrow, I'll see ya! Bye"

"See you later, girly"
And that was it, Jake was my last resort. Well I'd rather go with him anyways.

So I called him

"You reached the phone of the most amazing friend in the world, what can I do for you, Bella"

"Mike had to leave, Angela is at work,"
"Say no more, I'll be over at Al's in a nanosecond…"
"Awesome, wait how did you know I was at Al's"
"I can here him and Miranda in the background, Order me a number three will ya?" I laughed, of course he knew where I was, he knew everything, and he was probably starving, I'll get him two jumbo burgers.

"Thanks buddy, I owe ya,"
"Just get me the burger and well call it even eh?"

"Deal, see ya soon kiddo."

I waited, after I hung up. Al just finished with the guy and Miranda was done dealing with her punk. "Hey Al?" I called to him.

"Yeah sweetie?"

"Jake will be here…"
"Two number threes coming up!" he called out with a smile. He always was on top of things. Okay so Jake ordered the same thing almost everytime, but at least Al knew what someone would like.

"Thanks!" I called back and he chuckled.

Moments later my favorite person from the La Push reservation walked up behind me and lifted me in the air. After a minute of tickling, and me squealing and yelling for him to put me down we settled as Al brought us our food.

"So, where is this Mikey?" he asked mocking me with his eyes fluttering and his hands on his chest. So I threw a fry at him.

"Mike had to leave, the team wanted him."

"The team wanted him? What did they need him to fetch them some water?'

"Stop it would you." I glared at him while throwing another fry. This time he caught it in his mouth. "He's a starter now. Just because you are a big, bad football player doesn't mean you are all that."

"Oh contraire, my little tooth pick friend, I am the quarter back, I AM all that, and a bag of chips." He said very smugly. This time I just threw the whole bag of fries at him. He was only joking. He was normally very modest. He used to be the defensive lineman and Seth was the quarter back, they were both extremely modest, yet still somewhat smug.

"Congratulation on the new position, I hadn't realized they had tryouts already." Okay so I already knew since Quil, Jake and my long time friend, called about his Defensive lineman position earlier today.

"Oh yeah and this year we even have a good team. And I must say I look good in the gold uniform." I rolled my eyes at this and he threw a fry back at me.

We laughed the rest of the time, until we got to the truck. He built the truck with his father. This thing was a beautiful shade of red, and it was a tank, which we normally called it. This was the kind of truck you would see on a farm or in a highway accident. Except, it would stand completely unscathed wit the little bits of the foreign car it destroyed scattered around it.

We got into 'The Tank' and turned on the radio. We sang 'margaritaville' on the way home, it was our favorite song. When we got home our cheeks were red and we were laughing and singing like a bunch of drunken baboons. He went inside to greet my dad, Charlie. We weren't at all surprised to find Billy Black there, in his wheel chair. Of course they were sipping a beer ad laughing about the game. Billy was Jakes dad. Charlie absolutely loved Jake. He always thought we were dating again. We dated once, a while ago, but it was too weird. Jake was different. He was practically blood. My mom and his mom were best friends, and Billy and Charlie were joined at the hip.

After talking for a while the Black's left and it was just me Charlie, and an awkward silence. He was just about to ask me a question when my cell phone, bless its little battery, interrupted. It was Angela.

"Hey Chickadee"

"Hey, You home yet"

"Yeah, Jake brought me home."

"Okay, just checking, didn't want to have to send out another search party for you."

"Hey that was one time, and it wasn't my fault, when we play hide-and seek- on the rez, you can't just yell I quit and walk away, I was deep in the woods." We both laughed at this.

"Okay well I better go, I'm about to drop dead from exhaustion."

"Alright, well make sure you drop on your bed this time, and not the kitchen" I joked with her.

"It was one time and I was getting a midnight snack."

"Whatever, Good night girly."
"Night Bella." And we hung up. I sat on my bed and let myself drift off, fully dressed but completely comfortable.
