I know i haven't updated my other story for so long, but i have started writing it. This story has been in my notes since the beginning of August and i have loved Twilight fanfic ever since i started reading them. This is just a short starter! Enjoy :)
I don't own the characters or the main plot, just the changes and my ideas.
Bella's POV:
I sighed, i had the rest of the afternoon to pack all my most needed belongings before saying bye to the few close friends i'd made in Pheonix in the years i'd been here. I was moving to small town Forks, in the state of Washington, population = very small. It had been years since i'd been back to visit my hometown, the place where my childhood had happened. My mum was sending me off to live with Charlie, Chief of Police in Forks, and my dad. Mom and Phil were heading to Jacksonville, Phil was my mom's new husband, and being a semi-pro baseball player meant a life on the road, without me.
I really wasn't taking much to Forks, my clothes were going to be highly inappropriate for Forks, where the weather was dark, gloomy and wet, all the time, all year round. Pheonix however, was the opposite, so my shorts and vest tops were not going to be needed.
I didn't have that many belongings, but it was nice to spend some time going through bits i'd collected from different states over the years, and then onto my collection of old classic books, such as Jane Eyre, Mansfield Park, Shakespeare, all the old classics. I had friends, a few, but i liked spending time on my own, spent reading my books. I carefully packed those into boxes, leaving just enough clothes for the next few days and travelling. The boxes were being shipped to Forks so all i needed was a suitcase and my trusty backpack.
I headed down the stairs after spending some time making sure everything was organised and called out to my mom.
'In here Bells!'
'I'm going out now, gonna meet some of the guys at the diner to say bye!'
'Ok well don't be too late Bells, you've got an early start in the morning'
I rolled my eyes at this, all i'd heard all day, 'alright mom, i know! See you later'
'Have fun!'
I grabbed my keys and hopped into my beloved car, knowing it was one of the last times i'd drive it before mom and phil sell it off. Once there, my friends had got a big 'GOODBYE BELLA' sign and balloons and a table filled with food. We spent the next few hours talking, eating and taking photos, which i of course hated, but it was a part of my 'going away' present apparently. We got on the topic of school eventually, when one of my best friends, Chloe, asked me about my new school.
'All i know is that it's called Forks High School and it's tiny compared to ours, just like the town. So gonna stick out like a sore thumb being the new girl!'
One of my other friends, Kyle, piped up then, 'oh you are gonna loveeee that Bella!'
I smiled sarcastically at him, 'oh for sure!'
We carried on for the next few two hours and just before 10pm i told them i had to go because i leave early. We said our goodbyes, and as much as i was going to miss them, especially Chloe, who had quickly become a best friend, i wasn't the emotional type. They told me to send my new address to them, and they would send my gift to me soon.
When i got home, mom and Phil were watching tv, so i got pestered with questions about the day. Ten minutes later i made my excuses and laid down on my bed, taking a look around my newly emptied room, left only with a few essentials and my suitcases. I had a quick shower, dried my hair and carried on reading Mansfield Park for a bit, soon becoming too tired to carry on. I quickly set my alarm, before getting under the duvet and falling asleep, knowing tomorrow was going to be a long day and the first of my new start.
