This is a new fanfiction that I got the idea for while I was in the shower. I haven't seen anything like this on fanfiction yet so hopefully you will like it. This is a Bella and Edward story even though Edward doesn't come into the picture until much later. Takes place in the middle of New Moon. Jacob is already a werewolf, but Bella never went cliff diving. This scene takes place instead of the cliff diving scene that is in the book. Hope you like it!

Disclaimer: I do not own anything except this story plot. All credit for everything else should go to the gorgeous Stephenie Meyer.

This chapter is called: The Beginning of the End

I was walking down the stairs when I noticed that Charlie was still home, and sitting in the den watching a game.

"Dad, I'm heading over to Jake's. Be back later"

I didn't wait for him to reply. I grabbed my keys off the hook by the door and walked outside to my truck. I opened the door and got in. I started the engine and drove off.
I had just reached the city limits of La Push when it got hard to breathe. Panic overtook me and I had to pull over. I sat in the cab shaking, wishing that I hadn't come, when someone tapped on my window. Jacob.

I reached over and opened the other door so that he could get in. Jacob had a stern look on his face. He looked more grown up and more serious than I had ever seen him. This wasn't the Jacob I knew.

I opened my mouth to say something but Jacob beat me to it.

"What are you doing here Bella?" his voice was cold, and every word he said was laced with acid.

"I came to see my best friend." I said in a low whisper. I couldn't match his acidic tone.

"Bella you need to leave, I'm not supposed to see you." For just a moment a hint of the old Jacob reappeared in his voice.

"Why aren't you supposed to see me Jake?" The thought of not being able to see Jacob sent my heart into palpitations.

"It's dangerous Bella."

"Jake how could you be dangerous?"

"I can't tell you Bella. I wish I could but I can't." Jacob's hand reached for the door handle. "Bella please leave"

He got out of the car and shut the door, only to come around to my side. He rested his arms on my window and looked me in the eye.

"Bella," he whispered. "please you have to go. It's for your own good I promise. I will come see you when I can, but for now please just go."

A tear started down my cheek and he brushed it away with his smooth warm fingers. His hand lingered on my face for a moment and then he backed away from the car. I started the ignition and turned the truck around. I drove down the dirt road leaving Jacob behind waving to me as I went.

When I got home Charlie was still sitting in his chair watching the game.

"Hey Dad?" I called from the kitchen. "What do you want for supper?"

"Anything you want Bella. It doesn't matter."

"Okay." I called back to him. Fish and Chips it is.

I was trying to be creative in finding new ways to make fish. So in giving up on America for help, I turned to Great Britain. I wonder if Charlie had ever had fish and chips before?

I walked out to the freezer to get the fish and a bag of french fries a.k.a "chips". I didn't have a deep fryer so I decided not to make my own chips.

I cut the fish into strips and set them aside to make the batter. I mixed flour with salt and baking soda with vinegar. Then I added the two mixtures together and stirred it until it was smooth.

I decided it wouldn't take that long to fry the fish so I took out a pan and set the oven on 375 degrees. Then I put the fries on the pan and put them into the oven.

Now it was time to work on the fish. I dipped five pieces of fish into the batter and put them into the pan. When they were done I took them out and set them on a plate. Then I did five more pieces so that there would be enough for both Charlie and I. When they were done I put them with the others and took the fries out of the oven.

I got out two plates, one for Charlie and one for myself, and put half the fish and chips on Charlie's plate and the other half on mine. Then got out two forks, two glasses, and napkins and set the table. As soon as I filled the glasses with water I called Charlie to come eat.

When he sat down he eyed the fish and chips skeptically. Then he looked up at me.

"Bella, what is this?"

I laughed a little before answering him.

"It's fish and chips Dad"

"Oh." He said and then he took a bite.

"Wow Bella, this is really good. It tastes like Harry Clearwater's fish fry." He smiled at me as he said this.

"Well I am glad you like it."

We ate the rest of dinner with little conversation and then I cleaned up the dishes while Charlie watched the game.When I was done I went up to my room and started on my homework. We hadn't been assigned much so it didn't take very long for me to finish.

When I finsihed my homework I decided to go take a shower. It didn't take nearly as long as I hoped it would though. So when I was back in my room I turned on my out-of-date computer and waited patiently for the Internet to start. When it finally did I answered my mothers e-mails she had sent me and then went on the hunt to find new recipes for fish.

I did a google search and found a few promising recipes that I would have to test on Charlie; fried fish tacos, twice fried fish, steamed tuna fish,and grilled striped bass with garlic and basil.

I got tired of looking at pictures of fish and it wasn't quite time for bed yet so I flipped off the computer switch and walked over to my book shelf. I gazed at what few books I had and finally gave up on reading. All of the books I owned were romances.

Tonight I was just going to have to go to sleep early. I went down stairs and told Charlie goodnight. Then I walked back to my room and layed down in my bed.

Nothing interesting happened over the next few weeks. I went to school and work. Then I came home and cooked dinner for Charlie, did my homework and went to bed. On the weekends I worked as much as possible so that I wouldn't have to spend my days alone.

Jacob never called and he never came over. I called over there a few times but Billy would always tell me that he was out or sleeping. Then they quit answering the phone. I slowly slipped back into the depressed state that I had been in before. The nightmares returned and I woke up screaming ever night.

Charlie stated to see that I was slipping back into that numb state. He was worried about me and I could tell. I wasn't surprised that he wanted to talk to me one day after supper. I was already in a bad mood because Mike asked me out again today at work, and I was getting a little agitated at Charlie.

Charlie was getting angry and started to blame Edward for my depression.

"Bella you wouldn't be like this if Edward hadn't left you in the forest all by your self and told you he didn't love you."

I started to interrupt him but he spoke again before I could get a word out.

"And another thing. You wouldn't have almost died last year if it wouldn't have been for Edward. He caused all that mess about you going to Phoenix. I didn't think he was good for you from the start. All he caused you was pain." Charlie was red in the face and extremely mad. All that Charlie said to me caused me to feel the first feeling I had had in a long time, extreme anger.

I couldn't take it anymore. I was so sick of lying and having Charlie think about Edward the way he did. I wasn't thinking straight or being rational in any way. I didn't think before I spoke. I was so upset about Edward and Jacob that I couldn't keep the words in my mouth and I didn't realize what I had said until it was too late.

"Dad, it's not Edward's fault!! Do you want to know why Edward left me and why I went to Phoenix last year!!?? DO YOU!!!!!!!!!????? It wasn't because I was afraid of putting roots down in Forks. Edward may not love me anymore but he left me also because he thought he was to dangerous for me. That he was risking my life. Keeping me from living a normal human life." I was almost out of breath when I was done speaking and my face was red.

"Bella, what the hell do you mean by human???!!" Charlie yelled.

"What I mean Dad is that Edward and his family aren't human!!! THEY ARE VAMPIRES!!!!!!!!!" I gasped, closed my mouth and covered it with my hand. What on earth have I done?

Well that's chapter one! I hope that you liked it. Please review!!
