Bella's point of view
I new life. A new house. A new chance. Not just for me but for my kids, Colton and Amber. At 5 they'd been through too much and I was trying to make their life a little easier. I walked into our new house carrying 2 packing boxes. I set them on the counter and looked around. The house was plain, but it was nice. The living room and kitchen had plenty of windows, to let in the little sunshine we would get here. The walls were a light green, and white drapes hung from the window. The floors were all wood, easy for me to clean up spills.
Colton and Amber each had their own room that would eventually be decorated, if we decided to stay. Since I was a single mother it was hard for me to get jobs. Since I had to go by the kids schedule of school and there was no one there to be home with them I had to find a job that let me decide my own hours, or close to it. I'm not saying I wanted someone to stay home with my kids, and I didn't want to out them in child care. I was responsible for my kids and I wanted to be responsible for my kids. I wanted to take care of them.
My ex-husband didn't ever take the kids, on weekends or holidays. Never. And I was glad he didn't, he wasn't safe. I was only 26 and already I'd gotten married, had twins, and a divorce. My kids were my life and I had to make it good for them. I didn't want them to end up where I was. We had moved to forks, I had gotten a gob at the local hospital. I guess my degree in nursing had paid of somewhere. I think the only reason I got the job was because the doctor (was it Dr. Cullen?) felt sorry for me. Oh well…I was willing to take pity at this point.
Suddenly Colton came running in his blonde hair bouncing with every step. He was yelling my name, his face looked scared. I walked over to him and bent down to his level he like it when I did that. I guess it made him feel like I was really listening. This time he didn't care I tried to push me out of the kitchen.
" Mom you gotta go now! Amber fell over and she's hurt real bad!" He grabbed my hand and ran out the door. When I got there someone else was already helping Amber off her feet. She had scraped her knee. It really wasn't a big deal, but she was five. The man stood up and looked at me. He was…beautiful. He had pale white skin and light golden eyes, his hair a coppery red. He smiled at me, Amber in his arms.
" Thanks," I said taking amber from his arms. Our hands brushed and I felt an immediate spark go through my system. He looked at the ground, and mumbled something I couldn't understand.
" So do you live around here?" I asked him. I needed to know neighbors, before they got to know my kids.
" Yeah…a few streets down actually. I'm Edward…Edward Cullen." Cullen that was the doctors name I thought.
" Is your dad, by chance, a doctor?" I asked him. He nodded. I stared down at my faded blue jeans. I was wearing a short sleeve brown shirt, my dark curly brown was pulled back out of my eyes.
" I'm Bella Col- Swan. Bella Swan." I almost said my married name. Colven. He looked at me and laughed. It was the most beautiful sound I'd ever heard in my life. My mouth was open in shock. He stopped. I smiled.
" Are you still in high school?" What a stupid question.
" Um…no. I'm 23." Oh, I thought. Nice going, real smooth.
" Sorry about all this. I guess I'll see you around. You know considering we're neighbors and everything, and I work for your father and I should really stop talking now…" I said the last part quietly. He smiled again, I smiled back.
" Yeah, I'll see you around."
I spent the rest of night unpacking as much as I could. If all else fails I could have a very successful career as a professional mover. Colton and Amber were asleep on the couch that was in the middle of the room. It was as far as I could move it. I searched for the box with the sleeping bags and pulled one out. I layed it out on the floor and sat down. Tomorrow the kids started school and I started work. Another new adventure. Suddenly Edward popped into my mind. It was silly, I just gotten finished with a divorce and he was 3 years younger than me. I had to be careful, I couldn't trust him or anyone. And I was fine, by myself just with my family. But I guess I really did like him because that night I dreamed about Edward Cullen.
PLEASE REVEIW! Please let me know what you think! THANKS!
