BPOV-
I sat up and stretched my arms out in the small space I had. Being in the car for so long was starting to get to me now. I sighed glaring out the window as Charlie stared at the road. It was awkward being with Charlie. The rain had been light at the airport, but it was growing heavier by the seconds. The depression was starting to set in, also.
"How far is it to the house, Charlie?" I glanced at him. He smiled, "Only a few more minutes," I bit my tongue to hold back the joy. The car was nice, but I wanted to crash on a bed, not struggle against an annoying seat belt.
I propped my head up on my hand, staring out the window. It was dark outside now. The trees surrounded the highway as we speeded along the black river. The trees grew into nothing but a blur, a black wall holding me in the car. I searched through the trees as they flew by. I wasn't sure what I was looking for, but I felt like something was there, anything. My eyes scanned, following as fast as they could.
I gave up on trying finding something and just watched it all fly by. I thought of Renee and, her short brown hair and innocent eyes. I knew she'd be okay with Phil around; after all it was one short little summer, big deal. He had a good job, so she'd eat well; she'd have everything she would need. I missed her already, but somehow I was here in Forks, Washington, the rainiest, coldest, most depressing place in the United States of America. I thought of everything that ended me to be in the car with Charlie, headed back to his house, his home.
Phil's job had him moving around a lot, and Renee missed being with him. I had no need to go running around the country, so somehow I sent myself to stay with my father, Charlie. My parents had got a divorce when I was only two years old. Mom took me back to Phoenix and that's where we stayed.
I sighed, glancing at the clock. The yellow numbers told me that it was eight thirty-five. I groaned as the sleepiness was setting in. I thought of the wonderful bed that was awaiting me at Charlie's house. I let it go, Charlie was eyeing me suspiciously. I tried thinking of the positives of this summer get away. Renee could go off with Phil for the whole summer and I could soak up the rain. There was barely any sunlight here, remember?
I pulled out my IPod and put my headphones on, hoping music could save me. I thought about what I could do that would entertain me this summer. Charlie had mentioned a dog walking job; I thought about it and decided I could try it. I loved animals; they were cute, fluffy, and listened. I focused on not thinking about Forks, and imagined myself in Phoenix, in the blistering heat. I thought about the warmth on my skin, not a cloud in sight. I imagined the pool, my friends, it all. I felt myself drifting into sleep when Charlie nudged my shoulder and nodded out the front window. I blinked clearing my head and stared out at the house.
"We're here, finally," he stated the obvious. I nodded as my reply. "So you unlock the door and I'll grab the bags?" He smiled at me, "Sounds like a plan Bells," I jumped out of the car and opened the back car door. The rain was beating down on me angrily, not wanting me to get in the house dry. I ran to the front door, Charlie held it open. Of course I was the one dripping like I had stood under a waterfall for thirty minutes while Charlie was mostly dry.
"Here let me get you a towel," he walked through the living room to a small closet and pulled out a green towel. I smiled thankfully, "Thanks Ch-Dad," I wasn't supposed to call him Charlie to his face. He looked awkwardly out the window, "It's no problem. Your bedroom is upstairs," I nodded after drying off a bit and headed upstairs. I glanced around my old room with wide eyes. Everything was still the same. Yellow curtains and the light blue walls. It had been so long since I was here that I had forgotten how calming my room was.
I took in a breath and let it out slowly. I set my bag on my bed, which was by the window. There was a small desk across from the bed, probably for my laptop. I had a pretty big closet; I could have stood in there and closed the door, at least.
I turned on my laptop and turned up some music. I decided I wanted to listen to the Jonas Brothers to keep my mind off of the depressing rain. I started unpacking slowly, I didn't want any extra time on my hands to start crying. I danced and sung along with the long loved songs, hanging up clothes in my closet, folding other clothes like my jeans and stuffing them in my dresser.
I never realized I had so many clothes until I was unpacking. I pulled out some American Eagle shirts and realized they were new. "Thanks mom," I smiled and slipped them into the closet with the rest of my shirts. I glanced out the window when I was finished unpacking my clothes and realized that there was a tree directly out in front of my window. I walked over and opened my window. The rain had stopped, for now. I loved the smell of rain, I had to admit, but I just don't like the wetness. I leaned out and glanced around. The moon was full, bright, and high in the sky.
I sighed, a slight smile on my lips. The window sill was more like a shelf so I could even sit on it and read if I wanted. I smiled at the thought of sitting in my window sill reading under the moon light. I glanced across the street and saw there was a much larger house that was directly lined up with Charlie's. There was also a window that was directly across from mine. I wasn't too thrilled about that, taking in the matter that my luck there would be some guy living in that room.
I sighed, climbing onto the window sill. I longed for the sunshine to beat down on me, not the rain. I curled up and warped my arms around my knees, staring up at the moon. I felt lost. I should have just gone with Phil and Renee to New York for the summer. Phil was a soccer player, not super good, but he was trying to make it big, and Renee wanted to support him.
I blinked; my eyes had grown wet, with streams down my cheeks. I sighed, wiping it away. I was already here, no use in wishing I could take it back. Besides, it was nice to finally see Charlie, and he seemed happy to see me. I took in a deep breathe, and let it out slowly, clearing my mind. I had to finish unpacking; I couldn't just sit around and cry about my own choices.
I brought my other bag up the stairs while Charlie put my empty one away in a closet down stairs. I only had two suitcases luckily. I listened to The Veronicas while unpacking my other suitcase. I lived for music. Ever since I was at least thirteen I had fell head over heels for it. My IPod almost never left my side now. I used it as a stress reliever.
I set up some of my pictures. I had a few of Renee and I, then a few of Phil and her. There was one of us all together, but I didn't have the happiest look on my face. I closed my window when the rain started up again. I glanced across the street to see that who ever was in the room straight across from mine had turned the light on and was walking around. It took a few seconds to look away. I could tell it was a guy, since he had short ruffled hair and his shoulders were more boys like than girl like of course. I couldn't see much since the curtains were closed.
After I finally broke my gaze away from the window I mentally slapped myself. What happens if I see him sometime and can't look away? Damn it Bella! Pull yourself together, it was a damn shadow!
"Bella, I don't know what you want to eat but I just ordered some pizza if that's alright," I jumped back from the window and landed right on my butt. I saw it was just Charlie and sighed. "God you scared me Dad, but yea that's fine," I shook my head as I stood up and dusted myself off. He smiled apologetically and turned back down the stairs. I sighed, I had to pay more attention to what was going on around me. I was so oblivious sometimes. In Phoenix Renee would make jokes about her having to call my name more than three times just to get my attetion. I daydreamed too much...
I was pulling my other suitcase off the bed when I looked up and saw that the window across from mine was now open and I could see him. I dropped the suitcase in shock, right on my foot. I called out in stupidity and fell down. I muttered a cuss word under my breath. I sat up and shook my head. I was so clumsy. I glanced at the door; Charlie was standing there with curious eyes. "Are you okay? I'm afraid to leave you alone when you act like that," he raised an eye brow at me.
I smiled innocently, "Sorry Dad I wasn't paying attention," he laughed shaking his head slowly, and turned to go back downstairs. I let out the breath I had been holding as I stood up. I managed to somehow glance across the street again, unwillingly of course. I could see the entire room, and it was defiantly a room for a teenage guy. I could see him laying on his bed, reading.
I couldn't see that name of the book he was reading since it was dark, which raises a question. He was sitting in the dark reading. Who reads in the dark? I shook my head, a lot of people read in the dark. I could tell he was taller than me, and pretty muscular. His hair was messy, but he could pull it off easily. It was an auburn color, gorgeous. He seemed so intent on reading the book. At least someone could keep themselves on track unlike me...
I stood up and managed to look away, it was so stupid. I pulled my suitcase off the floor and pulled it down the stairs. Charlie smiled, "The pizza should be here soon, Bells" I glanced at the clock and returned the smile. "Okay good, I'm starving," I helped him put my suitcase in the closet. It was a tight squeeze but it somehow fit.
Just as we finally got it to fit, which took a good twenty minutes, the doorbell rang. He grabbed a handful of cash off the counter and opened the door. He quickly took the pizza and paid. We sat at the small table in the kitchen. It was a mostly silent dinner. Things were still very awkward between us. I don't know why it was awkward. Maybe because I hadn't seen him since I was two years old.
"So are you settling in okay upstairs?" I smiled at him. "Yea it's all good, Dad," I took another small bite of my pizza. He sipped his glass of Pepsi, "That's good, I didn't want to bother you, you know," he shrugged. I laughed, "Yea, Renee would have never left my room," he grinned, taking his plate over to the sink. "I'm not a very good cook, Bella, just a fair warning," I shook my head laughing, "Good thing I'm here then," he rolled his eyes and headed into the living room.
I quickly finished my pizza and headed upstairs. I picked out some pajamas and decided to take a shower since I had been previously soaked by the rain. I let the hot water unknot my back. I sighed when the hot water ran out all but too quickly. I hoped out and dried my hair. I was about to get dressed when I realized I was stupid enough to forget my clothes in my bedroom. I wrapped the towel around myself and hoped the guy in the room across from mine was either asleep not in the room.
So what do you think?? Is it good? I know I kinda speed up in some parts and I'm trying to get better at taking the things slower, but you know wha tits like when you have everything in your head and you can't seem to type it in fast enough and you start going too fast.
