I own nothing other than the plot of this story. Please Review :).
Preface
I stared out the window of the cruiser at the passing green. That was the problem with Forks, it was all green, trees, grass, endless forests. It was a complete change from my old life in Phoenix. Weird to think I was there a mere 12 hours ago and now I'm on my way to my new home with my dad in Forks. Charlie was the chief of police in this small town, so catching a ride with him certainly caused a lot of attention. Something I was desperately trying to avoid despite being the first new resident to this town in what was probably forever. Although I was born here, I don't remember much apart from the summers I spent visiting and even then, they were mostly spent down on La Push reservation with my dad's best friend Billy and his son Jacob.
It felt weird to think I was back permanently. I looked over at my dad. Although he was physically older, he was still the same as when I last visited two years ago. I saw him glance at me quickly, his brow furrowing.
"You ok kiddo?" the confusion evident in his voice. Oops guess I'm busted.
"Yeah dad, was just lost in my thoughts for a second there" I replied. He seemed to buy it for the time being as he pulled into the parking lot of the diner.
"I thought since it was your first night back we would celebrate with some good food" he smiled. I'm pretty sure he was a regular here, but I remember the food being good so I'm not complaining. We exited the cruiser, finally, and made our way inside. As we sat down, the waitress from when I was younger appeared, Sally I think her name was.
"Bella!" she exclaimed. "it's that really you, my, aren't you all grown up!". I felt my cheeks warm considerably at her words. Stupid blush. Do adults automatically look for ways to embarrass me? I'm not entirely sure anymore. After a quick chat, she took her orders and soon returned with food, throwing in a free dessert afterwards which was pretty nice of her even though I barely made it through it due to being so stuffed.
Afterwards we heading home and Charlie left me to my own devices to get settled in. The room was exactly the way I left it, except for new sheets and a slightly older computer sitting at the desk. It will need a bit of decoration but nothing too drastic. IT felt like home, although it hadn't been all these years.
I decided to get unpacked and then have a quick shower before getting my items ready for school the next day. Why did I decide to do all this travelling on a Sunday? I'm going to probably die of tiredness in the morning. Great look for the first day.
After my nightly routine I took up reading my favourite novel, Wuthering Heights for what was probably the 3rd time this year even though its only mid-January. What can I say I love this book! After a quick goodnight from Charlie, who popped his head in the door to make sure everything was alright, I checked the clock realising it was half 10 and I should probably try n get an early night in order to fully wake up the next morning. Next thing I know I must have fallen sleep unaware of how my stay here would change my life forever.
