Chapter 1
I grew up in Forks, Washington. Probably the only town in the world that was under a constant sky of clouds. I moved in with my dad, Charlie, when I was seven and in second grade. I hated it. I didn't want to leave Phoenix, and when I was forced, I resented everyone for making me leave my hot, beautiful home. And when I arrived in Forks? I was the biggest brat in the entire world. Until I met my across the street neighbor; Jasper.
Jasper was my best friend, as soon as we met. The second day I moved in, he walked across the street (all by himself) and knocked on my father's door. I was surprised to see this seven year old boy at my house, and I was even more surprised that he was there to see me. Of course, eager to have me make new friends, Charlie let Jasper inside. At first, it was probably the most awkward thing in the world. I didn't have too many friends back home in Phoenix, and the few I did have were almost all girls- so to say I felt out of place was an understatement. Jasper sat there in my room, quietly the whole time until I was ready to loosen up and talk to him. It impressed me, as much as a seven year-old girl could be impressed by another seven year-old. Jasper ended up staying in my room from ten in the morning until eight at night when his mother came over and literally dragged him out of the house- neither of us wanted him to leave.
From that day on, Jasper came over every single day of summer. Sometimes earlier than the others, but never later than ten am- he was always there knocking on my door. Even when I fell off the monkey bars at the park and broke my arm; he still crossed the always dead street and came up and played with me in my room. And when second grade started that September; I was thrilled to see that Jasper was in my class with me. We were constantly together; from the morning when we got driven to school- until he was dragged home by his mother when it was time for bed. I still can't remember a day we were apart. And it continued on like that; until we were sixteen and halfway through our junior year in high school.
And then that January I moved. I had to move back to Phoenix for my last two years of high school, so I could spend time with my mom and her new husband before college. I still remember the day Jasper and my dad drove me up to Seattle so I could catch my plane back to Phoenix. The entire car ride all I did was cling to Jasper in the backseat of my dad's truck, crying about how I didn't want to leave and he was my only real friend I ever had. I cried the entire drive to Seattle, half of the time in hysterics and the other half too tired to cry a lot. And when I was waiting for my flight, not once did Jasper leave my side or let go of my hand. And when the warning announcement went off for my flight; I started crying again. And I still remember what Jasper said to me.
"Bella, baby, it's going to be alright. I promise. We're going to stay in touch, I swear. You're my best friend, and you always will be. No matter what. One and a half years until college; and we'll be in school together again. I promise. I love you, Bella. You're the best friend I could ever ask for." And with that he kissed me once on the cheek and forehead and gave me the tightest hug he ever had and I left.
We stayed in touch for the rest of junior year and senior year. Constant texts, emails, and phone calls made sure of it. We still told each other everything that was going on in our lives; even though that wasn't much to begin with. And he told me about this new girl that moved to Forks senior year; Alice Cullen. And he was absolutely taken by her. I laughed at him, but couldn't help feel a bit jealous that she got to spend time with Jasper and I couldn't. And before I knew it; they were dating and Jasper was head over heels for her. The only thing he ever talked about was Alice and how much he missed me; which was much appreciated.
I missed him so fucking much those last two years. I couldn't stand it. And then; college came. And god must love me at least a little; because Jasper and I were going to the same college. Along with Alice (who I finally get to meet after talking and becoming friends with her via text and skype) and her family and Jasper's older sister Rose.
I can't wait.
