I don't own anything except Shane. This is only my second story so I'm still new. Comments are welcomed, but if you have anything against Bellice then I warn you now, don't read the story because I don't plan on changing the fact that it's Bellice. Enjoy.
***BELLA POV***
I hate moving. I don't even know why my parents sent me here in the first place. It's my senior year and they're making me move from Phoenix, Arizona to Forks, Washington, probably the most dreary town in the country. They said it was so I could spend some bonding time with my cousin, but I could tell they were lying; I just didn't know what for. I should probably introduce myself. My name is Isabella Marie Swan, but I prefer Bella; I am eighteen years old, have dark-brown hair that some say seems to have gold in it and gold-brown eyes. I used to stand at a height of 5' 5", but I somehow got a growth spurt of three inches within a week, and now stand at 5' 8". My parents are Charlie and Renee Swan and I have no siblings. Back to the story though, I'm being sent to live with my cousin, so I'm now currently grabbing my stuff to get off the plane I'm on. Once I get off, I notice that this place seems slightly ok. Of course, that's because I'm not in Forks; I'm in Port Angeles. I sigh and shoulder my backpack before walking out to the front of the airport to come across four people standing outside. There are two guys and two girls; they're really tall compared to most and have an air around them that screams 'wild'. All four are standing beside an old rusty pickup truck, but one of the girls is sitting cross-legged on the hood, the other girl and one of the guys are leaning against the truck while holding hands, and the last guy is bouncing around in excitement. The girl holding the boy's hand looks over and smiles; she looks to be eighteen, stands at a height of 5' 8", and has short, black hair and brown eyes. To me, they all look really familiar, but I can't place any of them.
"Bella" she says as walks over to pull me into a hug.
"Um, hi" I say, awkwardness washing over me.
"Leah, the poor girl probably doesn't even recognize you" the boy who had been holding her hand chuckles.
"Leah" I ask in surprise as I pull back and look at her.
Leah Clearwater had been one of my best friends when I still lived here with my parents, though back then she had really long black hair and was extremely shy.
"Oh hush, Jake" Leah commands, but smiles as she pulls away.
"Jacob Black" I ask as I look at the guy who had previously spoken.
Jacob was like my brother when we were little; we did everything together. He's twenty years old now and towers above me at 5' 11" with black hair and brown eyes, but he still has that childish appearance that I remember so much.
"It's good to see you, Bella" he smiles and hugs me.
"You too" I smile back and return the hug.
"Hey, Bella-Bear" the excited boy smiles as he hugs me and I instantly know who this is.
"Hi, Seth" I smile at his excitement.
Even-though he's only seventeen, Seth stands at a height of 5' 10" with his black hair and brown eyes, but that still left one other person who I didn't know.
"Hey, Bells, how ya been" the last person asks.
The girl is possibly nineteen and stands at a height of 5' 9". Her hair is covered by a black stocking cap, but I can just see black hair that has white tips poking out, and her eyes are covered by silver sunglasses.
"Uh, hi" I reply.
"It's been a long time; you probably don't recognize me" she smirks and pulls off her sunglasses to reveal dark silver-grey eyes that I recognize immediately.
"Shane" I gasp and nearly tackle her in a hug.
Don't get me wrong, I hated moving here, but I completely missed my cousin, Shannen (Shane) Anderson. She is the only person who knows everything about me and I'm the only one who knows everything about her. Until I had to move, that is.
"I missed you too, Bells" she laughs as she hugs me back.
I pull back and look her over. Gone is the self-conscious, quiet girl I used to know; before me stands a proud and independent woman that radiates confidence.
"You've changed" I state with a raised brow.
"What can I say, I grew up" she smirks.
"Not" Jacob coughs and she throws a glare at him.
"Need I remind you who kicked who's ass last time" Shane challenges and he frowns.
"You totally cheated" he states and she rolls her eyes before grabbing my bags.
"Come on, Jake is giving us a ride home, and, unfortunately, we have school tomorrow" she says as she throws my stuff in the back and jumps in the truck-bed with Seth and Leah.
"You can sit up front with me, Bella" Jake states as he goes to the driver's side.
I nod and get in the passenger's seat before we leave the airport. The ride is filled with laughs and stories of past memories, and before I know it, I see a "Welcome to Forks" sign. I look out the window to see the scenery, but something small and blurry running just beyond the edge of the forest catches my eye. I hear a low rumbling and glance back to see Leah, Seth, and Shane staring at the forest, and I realize the rumbling is coming from them, but it's barely audible. The sounds stop and I turn back to see the figure gone. I frown, but don't say anything; I'll get my answers, eventually.
HA, first chapter down, a lot more to go, but hey the first step is always the hardest, right? Anyway, this is the first chapter. Sorry if it's crappy, but I promise it will get better…hopefully haha.
