BELLAS POV

I had moved back to Forkes about a month ago and today I decided to take a trip to where I used to go to school, so I got in my Chevy and drove off to Forkes High School. While I drove I noticed the sky was different to the usual rainy sky found in Washington, it was sunny for once. I pulled into the car park for the school and climbed out locking my truck. I carried on up to the school and through to the reception, I noticed that the school secretary was still the same women it was when I came here those 4 years ago.

FLASHBACK

I had just moved to Forkes for the first time with my mum and dad, we moved from sunny Phoenix and I missed the sun so much, Forkes was so cloudy and wet all the time. We moved here at the beginning of the summer and we only moved here because my dad got a transfer from a police officer at a police station in Phoenix to the chief of police in Forkes. It was my first day of Forkes high and when I arrived at school I knew straight away that I would hopefully enjoy it. When I walked into my first class which was History, I saw this amazing boy, long black hair, dark skin and big brown eyes. I was staring at him and he noticed. I quickly looked away and sat down. I got out my books and started writing notes. After the lesson the boy I was staring at introduced himself, his name was Jacob Black. I found out we had a lot in common and that he wanted to hang around with me. And that's how me and Jake became best friends and have been the whole way through school and still are. He went to a resistant materials college though because he loves making things out of wood and metal. And he also loves cars, lots and lots of cars.

END OF FLASHBACK (Back in the reception talking to Mrs Cope)

"Bella!" she seemed exited to see me.

"Hey Mrs Cope," I said feeling a bit weird.

"Darling you don't need to call me that anymore, call me Maurine,"

"Okay thanks, well hey Maurine how's the school doing?" I asked.

She carried on telling me about the school, the new teachers and the stunning new pupils. She then asked me what I have been up to. So I told her that I went to college and got a diploma in History and English literature. She congratulated me and then carried on talking about how I should come and work at the school for a bit, I took her up on the offer and went to talk to the principal.

I knocked on the door and he asked me to come in.

"Hi sir, I was wondering if there was any job going as a teacher in History or English?"

"Hi Bella, it's so nice to see you and there possibly could be, which would you prefer to teach?" He asked me.

I replied telling him I would prefer to teach English and he said there defiantly was a job there, so now after coming to school here, moving to Alaska to go to college and then coming back and moving into the house my parents lived in before they died, I had a job at the same school I went to, to add onto that list. I said thanks and then headed back to my truck to find it raining. Sighing I got back into my old and nearly dead truck and headed home.

When I arrived home the rain had stopped and I saw my old best friends Rabbit parked outside my house, so I jumped out of the truck and ran up to the car to find no one there, that confused me a bit considering he would never EVER leave the car parked anywhere where there wasn't cameras or him. I carried on up to my house and opened the door; I heard the TV thinking I left it on when I left, even though I don't remember watching TV today. I went to turn it off when something jumped out from behind the door and grabbed my arm. I screamed but then a hand was raised and covered my mouth. I kept struggling but then I realised who it was, I looked up into his beautiful brown eyes ... and saw his beautiful brown muscle covered body ...BELLA! My inner voice screamed ... you have to stop thinking about your BEST FRIEND like this!

"Hey Bells, how you doing?" he asked.

"JACOB! Don't do that again you scared the crap out of me!" I answered.

"Sorry Bells, I wanted to surprise you but you weren't in so I thought of another way, I won't do it again, I promise,"

"Okay, what you doing here anyway Jake?"

"Oh not much, heard my amazing best friend was back in town so I came to say HI, and here I am,"

I lead him to the couch and we began talking about what we have been doing, how his job was going, about my new job and how long I was back in Forkes. I told him I thought I probably will be staying a while now, he seemed glad at that.

We had a great afternoon talking but then he asked the question I wanted no-one to ask.

"Bells, have you been seeing anyone recently or are you seeing anyone at the moment?"

I sat there staring into space for about 5 minutes until he brought me back into the room.

"Bells, hello? Bells you there?" He seemed worried

"Yeah sorry, um well I was seeing this one guy, he was amazing and treated me perfectly... until I found out that he had so many other girls going on at the same time, once he knew I knew he got well a bit difficult and he um ... he kind of began to hit me ... so I left," I explained. He then started saying if he ever found out who he was he would kill him, but then I said, well that will be hard seeing as he is in prison for life because of how many girls he beat up and eventually killed because they didn't leave him in time. Jake then said well at least he gets a bit of what he deserves... and then he dropped the subject. It got to about midnight we had had some dinner and then I started yawning I wanted to get an early night because of work in the morning so Jake left. I felt weird now he was gone; it felt like a piece of me was missing even though he only just walked out the door. I started to yawn again, so I would think about it tomorrow and go upstairs, have a shower, and get into bed ready for an early start.

I woke up to the sun shining through my curtains and I knew today was going to be a good one. I got up out of bed and had a shower to wake myself up. I was deciding what to wear because I knew that a suit would make me too hot, but then a skirt and blouse might make me too cold when the phone rang.

"Hello"

"Hey Bells, it's Jake just wanted to wish you good luck today,"

"Oh thanks Jake, I have to get ready I'll call you later,"

And that was the end of that, I then decided to wear a skirt and blouse with a suite jacket. I also decided that the truck was too old and loud to arrive at the school in, seeing as I'm not one for attention. So considering it was a sunny day I went downstairs grabbed something to eat, got my bag and then walked out the door locking it on the way.

During my walk to the school I saw some boys playing football, some girls talking and skipping to school and some little ones walking hand in hand with their mothers. I noticed that Forkes is actually beautiful in the sun, the trees were gleaming and the sun was bouncing off of them onto the paths and road. The birds were singing and the sun was shining and there were no clouds in the sky. I arrived at school at around 8 and walked over to the principal's office to ask for my schedule and what I would be teaching during the first semester. I was given the schedule and headed to where my classroom was and began unpacking and getting ready for my first class.

At 8:30 the bell sounded for the beginning of school and my first class came in and settled down. The class began by everyone introducing themselves and me telling my story. After that it was a normal lesson I taught them what I was supposed to teach them and they listened. It was all normal apart from I did notice this one guy, I can't remember his name but he kept staring at me the whole lesson. I just thought it was a teenage boy thing so I pushed it to the back of my mind, and then I began thinking about Jake and why I missed him so much, and yet it didn't feel like a friend was missing, more a part of me was. I really was confused lately about me feelings for Jake, but I guess it's just another thing I have to go through and think about.

I had finished my marking and was heading home in the dark when a car came rushing past and then came to a sudden stop, it was the boy, I couldn't remember his name, but I knew that now that I think about it, he is pretty stunning. He stopped and asked if I would like a lift, I was really tired and wasn't thinking straight so I got in the car and told him where to go. He dropped me off and I said thanks and I would see him tomorrow, then I went in had something to eat and crawled into bed. I began thinking about the day, about Jake and about why the boy offered me a lift, and why he starred at me all lesson. I really wasn't sure but then sleep took over...
