Chapter 1
Hey I'm Bella and I'm seventeen years old. My parents are Charlie and Renee, and my dad's a successful businessman so we're millionaires.
The last couple of months I heard my parents fight a lot. Every night I'd have to fall asleep with ear plugs on to block out the yelling. And then last week they announced that they were going on a 6 month cruise to "rejuvenate their young spirits" and "fall in love all over again", what a bunch of bull. In my opinion there's no such thing as true love.
Of course I can't go, cause apparently I have to go to school. So for the next few months I will be living with Carlisle and Esme Cullen and their children Rosalie and Jasper.
See, my dad and Carlisle go way back. They met in high school, in business. After high school they started their own business called the S & W Enterprises and so me and Rose and Jazz grew up together. Their greatest rivals are the Masons.
Tomorrow I leave for Forks. I only remember a little bit since we used to live there. Afterwards we moved to Phoenix to expand the business. I had to leave all of my friends behind too. I haven't seen Rose and Jazz in years. I'm really nervous, so nervous my heart starts pounding and I start sweating just thinking about it.
Summer break is almost over too. And starting next week Monday, September 3, I enroll into Forks High. Anxiety attack…

That morning I woke up hardly ready for traveling. I was taking the private jet at 6:00 am in the morning!! I mean if it's private can't they delay it a bit?? Jeez! Ha ha I'm just nervous and pissed I guess. Ok deep breaths calm down, you can do it!!
I got ready and put on a simple, blue V neck shirt and some white skinny jeans. I put on some light make up and got my parka ready. Then I double checked to make sure I had my cell, ipod and a book for later. Suddenly the door bell rang. I ran to answer it knowing who it was.
Enter Jacob Black. My best friend since… forever! Now he works part time for my dad and goes to high school with me. My parents knew I'd be lonely in Forks, so they convinced him to go too, which wasn't that hard since… well… you see… I think he might like me, like, like like me!!
Anyway so I opened the door and saw him standing there with all his bags wearing a white t shirt and jeans.
"Let's hurry Bella! It's 5:30 and our flights at 6:00!!" he said exasperatedly
"Oh CHILL OUT!! You're worse than my mom! K, let me just grab a bite then we'll leave"
Jake waited in the living room while I got all my stuff ready and grabbed a pop tart. I kissed my parents good bye and left. We got there 5 minutes early and breezed past the security.
The flight was about 5 hours. For most of the flight Jake just watched movies and I listened to music while reading. Since the morning I'd gotten tons of texts too, saying good bye, that they'll miss me and good luck, but I didn't bother with them. Most of my friends are pretty superficial. They're cheerleaders and prissy snobs who are friends with me because of my money. They probably only sent them to get in good with me. My only real friend has always been Jacob. I guess it's pretty selfish of me, knowing his feelings yet still hanging out with him all the time even though I don't share the same feelings. But he's something I can't give up.
I guess at one point I fell asleep because the next moment I opened my eyes after a really long blink I saw Jake staring at me. When he saw I'd woken a grin spread across his face.
"We're almost there!!" ughh, the forever enthusiast, cockeyed optimist attitude he had was pissing me off even more. I realized I didn't want to be here!! I wanted home, warm home. My parents, my friends, even though they're superficial. Ok deep breaths again! Calm down.
"*yawn* great"
Just as I said that the pilots' announcement came on telling us that the plane was about to land. I put on the seat belt and about a half hour later we were getting our baggage. My car was being shipped and it would be here within a week. I'd thought of just buying a new one in Forks but as memory serves, Forks isn't that big and neither is Port Angeles.
We started walking towards the gate when Jake started laughing.
"Nervous much?" he asked with an amused smile. When I displayed back a confused face he looked at my hands.
In them was a coke bottle that I'd purchased which I was mercilessly wringing.
"Ha ha, uh… ya"
Suddenly I spotted a head of brown, soft hair jumping up and down waving at us. That, I guessed, was my aunt Esme. She rushed towards us and enveloped me in a tight embrace.
"Oh Bella! I'm so glad to finally see you! Wow you've grown! Oh and you're so beautiful" I hugged her back.
"Hello, Esme. It's so nice to see you again" she finally let go and glanced at Jacob.
"And you must be Jake. Hi I'm Esme." she hugged him too as everyone else came running towards us. I said hi to everyone and then introduced all of them to Jake. Carlisle's my uncle, he has blond hair and looks 20. Then there's Jazz, he has blond curly hair too and he's extremely quiet. Lastly there's Rosalie, she's blond, hot and a total shopahollic!!
We got outside and there were 3 cars. Esme and Carlisle went in one, with some bags. Jazz took the other with the rest of the bags. Me and Jake rode with Rose.
We arrived in front of a big white house and all got out. We were the last ones to get there so Esme, Carlisle and Jazz were already home and all our luggage was in our rooms too.
Rose gave us the tour of the house, and the whole time she was flirting with Jake!! My room was blue (yay). There was a big queen sized bed too and it was layered. The lower part was a table with chairs, which by the way looked really comfy. And on the top there was a computer desk with a laptop. And a whole wall covered with books!! I decided to stay there and explore while Jake checked out his room. I also called mom and dad to tell them we'd arrived. It was really quick and I hung up right after telling them. I could tell mom was hurt but…
An hour later I went downstairs for dinner. Esmes cooking is DELICIOUS! I was so busy devouring the food that I didn't even pay attention until I heard that one dreaded word "birthday". My head shot up. Crap!!
"so Bella your birthday's in 2 weeks. Anything you'd like?" asked Carlisle. I blushed and laughed nervously.
"ha ha oh nothing"
"aw come onnn Bells! What about a party?" whined Rose
"No! ha ha I mean um I don't really like to be the centre of attention." I blushed again and they were all quiet too. They all knew I was a total klutz. I remember on my 7th birthday I had a party… my whole class was there, and as I was walking towards the cake I tripped on my dress, well no actually that's what I like to say, truly I was so nervous I just tripped over air. Anyway the result was me falling head first into my huge beautiful cake. Boy was I ever glad they hadn't lit the candles yet!
I finished quickly after that and went back into my room. Jake knocked soon afterwards.
"come in" he slowly came in. I was sitting in the lower level in one of those extremely comfy chairs. He sat down too.
"so you alright?" he asked finally
"yah fine"
"did you call Charlie and Renee"
"Yup" I said making the "p" pop.
"well I just want you to know, I'm always here… if you ever want to talk" I laughed
"come on Jake! I'm alright! Really! I guess I'm just a bit home sick, that's all!"
"well ok" he said hesitantly
"then G'night"
"Night" I replied. He came over and kissed me on the cheek.
After he'd left I sat there thinking. I sighed, I wonder what kind of adventures await me in this small town of Forks. Well time to go to sleep. I jumped into bed and quickly fell asleep.
