It's based on the song, All American Girl by Carrie Underwood. Disclaimer :: I don't own twilight. Stephenie Meyer does.
It's a great song, you should check it out.
Anyways, R&R.
If you have any ideas for the story, let me know.
"A baby boy" I thought to myself as I held Renee's hand, waiting for the doctor to enter the room. Everything was perfect. I had an amazing wife, who I loved everything about, and now I was going to have a son within the next few minutes. I could already see it now. We'd spend the summers fishing and watching sports on tv. Then in the Fall, I would go to the football stadium and watch my son be a starter for the Forks High Spartans. It was my ideal life.
"Charlie, get that doctor in here NOW! I'm having this baby, with or without him!" She said releasing the death grip she had on my hand and giving me a slight push towards the door.
"Excuse me, my wife is having my child like right now and we'd really appreciate it if we could get a doctor in here." I said as I walked over to the nurses station.
"That's where I come in." A young blonde man said walking towards me, clipboard in hand. He didn't look too much older than me.
"Are you the doctor?"
"Yes, Carlisle Cullen. How's your wife doing?" He said, writing on the clipboard as we approached the door to Renee's room.
"Uhm, she's in a lot of pain." I said cringing at the memory of her constant yelling.
"Ha, that's normal." He said opening the door, "Hello, Renee. How are you feeling?"
"Getting this baby out of me. NOW, Carlisle." She yelled, before she grabbed her stomach wincing in pain.
"Will do, Renee." He said as some nurses entered the room. Suddenly, I could smell the blood. The rusty, salty smell that always makes me nauseous. This time was no different. I held my nose, but it didn't help much because, within no time I passed out.
"Mr. Swan?" A nurse said shaking me awake, "Are you awake? Your a father now!"
"A father! She's already had the baby?! Oh no, she's gonna kill me. She said she wanted me there when he was born." I said taking in my surroundings. Someone must have taken me to the waiting room.
"He? I think you mean she, Mr. Swan. You have a daughter." She smiling at me, "You can go see her now if you want. She's in the room with Renee."
I quickly got up and ran towards the room. A girl? Since when is it a girl? The doctor specifically told us that Renee was going to have a boy?
I opened the door and sure enough, Renee was holding a baby in a little pink blanket.
"Charlie, she's beautiful. Come here and look at her." Renee said, motioning me over.
And with that one glance at the little baby girl, my heart was stolen. I knew that this beautiful baby girl was going to be the center of my world. I would give her everything I possibly could and I would never let anyone hurt her. So maybe she wouldn't be the football star, but she was my baby girl and that's all that mattered. Life was officially perfect.
16 years later....
"Alice, come on. Cheerleading? Do you actually think that I could make the cheerleading squad? I can barely walk without tripping over my feet. There's no way on Earth I would ever be coordinated enough to cheer." I stated, completely shocked that Alice even suggested that I tryout with her.
"So your a little clumsy, who isn't? I mean, have you ever seen Lauren walk? Let me tell you, that isn't exactly my definition of graceful. But she's a cheerleader." She said raising her eyebrows causing me to laugh. She stopped at her locker, "You would be great, Bella. They would be privelaged to have you on their team."
Yeah, that's Alice for you. Always positive, "Thanks Al, but i dont know about this." I said looking nervously down at my feet.
"You'll be fine, I pinky promise. Tryouts are tomorrow, out on the field since it's supposed to be so nice tomorrow. No rain at all. Such strange weather for Forks, dont you think." She rambled, placing her books in her messenger bag and closing the locker door. She stepped back, taking a good look at me, "Bells, I know your nervous and you have every right to be. But I miss my best friend. We've not been as close as we used to since freshman year. We never get to spend any time together and I miss that. So, this way we'll see each other all the time. Not just in between practicing and games. Just give it a shot. Please, for me?"
"Okay, I'll be there. But just for you." I said flashing her a smile. She squealed and pulled me in for a bonecrushing hug.
"Yay, I'm so excited. You'll love it, Bella. But I gotta go, Jasper's waiting for me outside. I'll call you later, okay." She said as she turned and practically bounced down the hallway to the door that lead to the parking lot. I laughed quietly as I turned, walking towards my own locker. The halls were already deserted only 5 mintues after the bell had rung. Even the teachers had already locked up their classrooms and left. I could hear the water dripping from the broken pipe on the water fountain as I passed. The school was actually kind of eery when it's empty. Suddenly the overhead lights went off. I turned my head quickly to see Pete the janitor walking away from the switches. I turned back around and ran straight into something hard spilling my books every where.
"Ugh." I grimaced as I bent down to pick up the mess. I looked up to see no one other than Edward Cullen, "Ohmygosh, I am so sorry. I'm just so clumsy and the lights went off and I wasnt paying attention..." I rambled nervously as I began shuffling my books together.
"Don't worry about it. It's okay, no big deal." He said leaning down and picking up my copy of Wuthering Heights, "So, you like to read?" He said as he handed me my book, staring at me with those piercing green eyes.
"Y-yeah. I do." I said, stumbling over my words.
"That's interesting. I don't know many people who like to read the classics just for fun." He said flashing me a crooked grin, "I'm Edward."
"Bella." I said grabbing the last book and standing back up.
"That's pretty name. I don't think I've seen you around before, Bella. Are you new?"
"Uhm, actually I've lived here my whole life. I'm just kinda quiet." I said blushing.
"Oh, I'm sorry. Maybe, I'm just not very observant. Though I don't see how I could've missed someone as pretty as you." He said causing a new blush to form across my cheeks. Did Edward Cullen, star football player, say that I was pretty?
"Uh, thanks." I said looking at my feet, "I gotta go, see you around." I said taking off down the hallway before he could reply.
"Yeah, see ya." He said, quietly to himself with a grin.
