A/N: Hi everyone! I'm back with a new story already. Before I let you guys get to the story, there are a few things I'd like to say.

First of all, I have a goal I would like to try and achieve. I would like to try and get at least 5 reviews for each chapter in this story. Let's see if we can make that happen! ;)

Secondly, I'm going to try and make my chapters for this story longer than they were in my last one. This means that I'll be spending more time writing them, so I won't be updating every single day again. I was thinking maybe 1 chapter per week. If that schedule changes, I'll be sure to let you know.

Lastly, I am more than happy to answer any questions you have about my stories, so feel free to PM me if you want.

Also, I'd like to give a shout out to my best FF friend, Anam. Anam I look forward to hearing from you again. I really appreciated all of your support for my last story. :)

Anyways, I'll let you get to the story now. I hope you all enjoy it. ;)

The New Me

Chapter 1- The Prologue

BPOV

I was currently standing in the middle of the airport in Seattle while looking for my father. After about 30 minutes of not seeing him anywhere, I called his cell phone. After it rang a few times, he finally answered.

"Hi, Bells!"

"Hi, Dad. Um, where are you? I've been looking all over the airport for you."

"You didn't get my message?"

"No."

"Oh, sorry about that then. I left you a message earlier to let you know that I wasn't able to come and get you, so I sent Jacob Black to get you instead. Just look for a giant Quileute and you should find him pretty easily."

"Okay, I'll do that. I'll see you soon, Dad. Love you."

"I love you too, Bells. Drive safe."

After we both hung up, I began my search for a giant Quileute. I searched for about 10 minutes before I spotted him. My dad was right. Jacob got really big.

He was clearly scanning the crowd for me, so I walked up behind him, cleared my throat, and said, "Looking for someone?"

Jacob turned around and his eyes widened when he saw me. "Bella? Is that really you?"

I smiled at him. "It's really me."

He pulled me into a hug and said, "Wow, Bella. Look at you. You look...hot. What are they feeding you down in Florida?" he joked.

"Thanks. I could say the same to you." I grabbed one of his arms. "Well, hello biceps. You do know that steroids are bad for you right?" I joked with him.

Jacob scoffed. "Steroids? I don't need that shit. This is all natural baby."

I laughed. "That's good to know. So are we going to stay here all day, or are we going to Forks?"

"Well, first, we have to get your luggage, and then we can go."

The two of us walked to the luggage station and got my things. Then we walked to the car and put them away. I climbed into the passenger seat while Jacob got into the driver's seat. And soon we were on our way to Forks.

"So," Jacob began, "How does it feel to be going back to Forks after all these years?"

I sighed. "Honestly? It feels a bit overwhelming. I left to get away from all of the bullying and hurt I had to endure, and leaving was good for me. I was able to make a few friends, get healthy, and be happy. Coming back here means that I have to face the past that I had purposely left behind. It kind of scares me."

"There's nothing to be scared about, Bella. You are a completely different person from who were back then. You're no longer the fat, shy, and nerdy girl. You are now a beautiful woman with sexy curves and lots of confidence. You should be proud of yourself and your accomplishments. Don't let anyone bring you down. Alright?" said Jacob.

I smiled at Jacob. "You're right. From here on out, I'm not going to let anyone hurt me in any way. There's just one thing I'm really worried about."

"And, what's that?" asked Jacob.

"I'm worried about what will happen when I see Edward Cullen again after being gone for 6 years."

A/N: So how was it? Instead of going back and forth between the past and present, I think I'll put a flashback in each chapter that explains a bit about the past.

Please leave a review. I would love to hear your thoughts and ideas. :)

Thanks for reviewing, favoriting, and following.

The next chapter will be up next week. I'm not sure what day though. I will eventually figure out a posting schedule.

Also, I hear that Robert Pattinson's movie The Rover opens up in the UK this week. If you go see it, let me know what you thought about it. I saw it when it came out in June, and it was really good. :)
