Chapter 1: A Vacation?

BELLA POV

I just drove home from school and I knew something was up. My mom never left the mail in the mailbox or the keys in the door. I'd been getting weird feelings all day that my life was changing fast but I had no idea how.

I walked in the door and yelled "Hey mom! What's going on?"

She called back "Could you come in here for a minute? I want to talk to you about something." I couldn't help but think something was wrong. I decided to go find out what was going on.

"Hey mom, you wanted to talk to me?" Oh great! What crazy plan has she cooked up this time?

"Hi honey! How was your day? I made some cookies. Do you want some?" She was playing nervously with her fingers and she NEVER baked. Uh-oh! This is going to be bad...real bad!

"No mom. I'm not hungry. Now what did you want to talk to me about?" Why didn't I keep my mouth shut when I had the chance?

"Um . . . well . . . how to say this . . . I'm getting married to Phil!" Who just gasped? Oh great! It was me! Why does she need to get married! We're perfect the way we are. Just the two of us. It's not fair! I won't let her! I'll come up with a plan to stop her! Unfortunately I was crying, like always. Why do I always cry when I get mad! My stupid overactive tear ducts!

"That's great mom . . . really. I'm so happy for you." What am I saying!?!? Get a hold of yourself Bella! Gosh! Why do I always have to be the good one who makes everyone else happy!

"Really? Well I thought that we could go on a girls trip first. Like maybe to Italy. I heard about this great little city called Volterra! Don't say anything yet . . ." How did she always manage to stop me before I could speak. Sometimes I swear she's psychic! "I know this is a major shock, but I wanna be happy for once ... an-an-and I want you to be hap-happy for m-m-me too!"

How does she always do that! It's like she knows that I can't say no when she gets all sad! That's not fair! She's not playing by the rules!

She piped up again "So how about it? Are we going on a vacation?" Uggg . . . I really wanted to say no but I knew it would mean a lot to her so I had to agree!

Although, for some reason, I had a really bad feeling about this. It seemed so important that I didn't go, I just didn't understand why. I was just going on vacation with my mom . . . that couldn't possibly kill me!

"Alright mom." I let out a sigh of frustration. "Lets go! When do we leave?"

"That's the spirit! We leave tomorrow!" I felt a little bit of sadness sweep over me. I wanted to make sure I said goodbye to everyone . . . but I had no idea why . . .it was just a little trip with my mom. I would be back in a couple of days!

"Sounds good! What's the worst that could happen?"
