Chapter 2
(Anna's POV)

I begrudgingly opened my eyes, even though it took a lot of effort on my part. I just didn't want to wake up this morning, but then again, when do I ever?

I lay there for five minutes before deciding to get up and head to the bathroom for my shower. I washed my hair and body quickly before turning off the water and reaching out to grab the towel I left on the toilet seat, wrapping it around my body before stepping out into the cool air. I shivered a bit and padded my way back to my room to get dressed.

I grabbed my suitcase and pulled out my favorite black skinnies that I had so lovingly named my "butt trousers" and a red tank top. I quickly got dressed and blow dried my hair, straight ironing it to tame my thick curls and put on my two silver rings, a few rubber bracelets, a pair of large hoop ear rings and a silver necklace with a tiny star charm hanging over the middle of my chest. I also added a hair bobble to my wrist just in case I needed it. I gave myself a satisfied once over and went downstairs to have my breakfast.

Walking into the kitchen, I found my parents both up and sitting at the breakfast bar with blueberry muffins, toast and orange juice. I snagged a muffin and poured a glass of orange juice before I parked my butt next to my dad after giving him a quick kiss on the cheek.

I popped a bit of my muffin into my mouth as my mom began to talk. "So, today is day one in a brand new country in a brand new house. What are your plans for today?"

I turned my attention towards my mum, giving her a once over, noticing that she seemed to have lost weight. In my opinion, she was almost too skinny and needed to eat more.

"Today I'm going to set about my room and find a place to shop for school supplies." I shrugged.

"There is a shopping center in Seattle. I need to go and get you a car today, so after you finish moving your boxes from the living room upstairs to your room, can you come to the car dealership with me so you can pick a car? From there you can drive straight to Seattle to look about getting your school supplies." I barely let her finish speaking before I squealed and bounced up from my chair, hugging my mum tightly around her neck.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" I gushed as she laughed at my antics.

After several moments, I found myself calming down and sat back down in my seat as I finished the rest of my muffin. I took my glass to the sink and washed it out before putting my muffin wrapper in the trash bin.

I made my way to the living room and started looking through all the boxes for the ones with my name on them. Picking up a few that weren't too heavy, I stacked them up and took them up the stairs. I continued to do this until all of my boxes were upstairs in my room. I then went back downstairs to ask my dad to help me move all of my furniture up into my room.

It took me and my dad about half an hour to get everything up there. My dad set about building my bed back up for me while I pulled out my clothes and loose hangers out my boxes and started to put them into my walk in wardrobe. Fixing up my closet took about two hours to complete before I moved on to sort my main room. It consisted of arranging my furniture into the places that I wanted them and setting up my lamps, jewelry boxes, make up, books, DVD's, CD's and everything else into their correct places.

My DVD's were put in alphabetical order and the same goes with my books and CD's. It was times like this that I hated having obsessive compulsive disorder, because I would never be content until everything was set about the way that I wanted them.

Finally finished, I came downstairs to get my mum, who had finished with the rest of the house- minus the kitchen- and we decided to go to the dealership to pick out my car.

I followed my mum outside and was about to get into her car when I saw someone waving at us from across the street. I shut the door back up and we walked over to our neighbor, meeting him halfway. He was wearing an American police uniform and had a black moustache with thick black hair that had streaks of grey running through it.

"Hello, I'm Charlie." He introduced himself and held his hand out for my mum to shake.

"Hi, I'm Belle and this is my daughter Anna." Mum said shaking his hand and placing her hand on my back as she gestured to me.

"I'm assuming that you're the new neighbors? How are you settling in?" He asked smiling.

"Yes, we are." Mum confirmed. "We are settling in just fine, but we need to get used to the way everything is done. You see, we're from Scotland and we need to get used to the American way of doing things. Everything is so different." My mum answered him.

"To be fair, we mostly talk the same with a few words that are different. Everything else will just take some getting used to, but I have no doubt that you'll pick up on everything quickly. Everyone's very accommodating here in our lil ole town. I have a daughter named Bella that just came to live with me from her mom's in Phoenix. She's at school today, but I'm sure she would love to meet you, Anna. She looks about your age."

"I would love to meet her! It would be nice to have a friend in the neighborhood, or anywhere for that matter." I smiled politely at him.

"Anyway, you two seem to be on your way out, so I'll let you get on with it, but I will come over later with my daughter so that the two of you can meet, if you like?"

"We would greatly appreciate it," Mum answered. "We'll see you later."

We headed back towards the car and set off to find the car dealership that we had passed on our way here last night.

I continued to look through all of the cars, unable to make up my mind on which one I wanted as I made another loop around the lot. I was just about to give up when my mum called out for me. I walked over to her as she was talking to the salesman. She seemed excited and I crossed my fingers in hope that she found something that I would like.

"I think I found the perfect car for you, Anna." I grinned. I had to admit that I was curious and followed the two of them over to a beautiful electric blue car.

"Oh, my God!" I gasped, placing my hands over my mouth in excitement. "This is a Mitsubishi evolution 8, mum!" I couldn't believe that she had found my dream car!

"Well, I know that you have always wanted this car, so I decided that it's time for you to get one. You've been such a good sport about moving even though you really didn't want to and that shows maturity."

I squealed for the second time today and jumped at my mum, squeezing her to me in a tight hug before I kissed her on the cheek.

I ran at the car door, throwing it open and sliding in to check out my new car. I rubbed my hand over the leather seats and over the steering wheel, oddly already feeling at home in the car.

I watched as my mum went to finalize the sale and I waited patiently until she came back over with the keys. She tossed them at me and I caught them with ease, putting them in the ignition and turning they key, listening to the car purr to life.

"Ok sweetheart," She began, "the car is all yours! I will pay for the insurance, but that doesn't mean that you can goof around in it."

"Mum, you don't need to do that." I objected, "I can figure out a way to pay for it myself."

She shook her head as she spoke, "I want to, so please don't argue with me? I'm your mother and I have a right to treat my daughter to something that she deserves along with everything that goes with it."

I sighed, knowing that I wasn't going to win this argument and got out of the car, letting one of the employees take the car around to fill the tank and to give it one final inspection.

"Ok mum." I hugged her to me again waited for them to finish up driving back up to me with my car.

My mum started walking over to her own car while as she tried to give me directions and last minute tips. "Follow the road signs to Seattle and you can't go wrong. Oh, and remember that Americans' drive on the other side of the road." She explained as she dug through her bag and passed me her credit card before she walked back to her car. I got back into my own car and waited until my mum had driven off, waving at her before I pulled away from the curb and made my way towards Seattle.

It only took me a couple of hours before I found a shopping center with everything that I needed in it.

I parked my car and grabbed a hot chocolate from Starbucks before looking through the shops. I bought all of the school supplies that I needed and picked up a few new paisley oversized scarfs in red, blue and purple before I decided to head back home.

It was dark when I pulled back up in front of the house. I was proud of myself for not getting lost and making it the whole way home with no trouble. It was, after all, my first time driving alone on an American road.

I threw the car in park before gathering my bags and making my way inside.

"Hi Anna," my dad greeted me as I walked into the living room, "did you have a good time shopping?"

It was then that I saw that Charlie was here with a teenage girl that I assumed was his daughter, Bella, sitting across from them on the opposite sofa.

"Yeah, I did." I smiled putting my bags on the floor next to the arm chair. "I got all of my school supplies and picked up a few more scarfs."

"You and those scarfs," He laughed, "Honestly, today is one of the few days that I have seen you without one on."

I laughed with him and turned my attention to the other sofa and introduced myself to Bella. She was very pale and quite skinny with dark brown hair and brown eyes, though in my opinion, she was quite pretty.

"Hi, I'm Bella." she smiled in return.

"How old are you? I asked taking a seat in the arm chair where my bags were. It was right next to the couch that she was sitting on, so we had no trouble talking.

"I'm 16 and in my junior year of school. What about you?"

"I'm 17 and I guess I would be in my senior year when I start school." I answered.

"Ahh," she nodded in understanding, "If you would like to join my friends and I at lunch when you start school if you want? This way you aren't alone?"

"I would like that very much, thank you." I smiled gratefully at her.

We struck up an easy conversation and a little while later I asked her if she wanted to come up to my room. She agreed and followed me upstairs.

I collapsed on my bed the second we entered while she looked around my room.

"Wow, you are really organized." she commented.

"Yeah, I have obsessive compulsive disorder, so please, if you pick something up can you put it back in the exact same spot that you found it?" I stressed as I saw her looking at something on one of my shelves.

"Of course I will." She smiled over her shoulder.

"Thanks, I feel really uncomfortable if someone moves stuff in my room." I admitted.

Bella sat down next to me and started to tell me about herself, the school, and Forks. Time flew by quickly and before I knew it, my mum was calling Bella and me downstairs telling me that it was time for Charlie and Bella to leave.

"I'll see you at School tomorrow, Bella?"

"How about I come get you and you can drive us to school tomorrow?" She compromised.

"Yeah, ok, because at least this way I won't be walking in alone tomorrow. Not to mention, it would be nice to know where the school is." I chuckled.

"Yeah, I know how that feels. I started last month and I had to walk in alone. Talk about awkward." She laughed, "See you tomorrow, Anna." She smiled and waved as she left with her dad.

I shut the door behind them and proceeded up the stairs to go to sleep, completely nervous about starting at my new school tomorrow.
