Voila, here is part two...
My first week in Forks was the longest of my life. Charlie Swan was a stubborn man who had lived for his work for too long to ever make room for a daughter. I couldn't blame him. Maybe that is why I grew so attached to the Cullens. They were one of the most exciting families I had ever known. The only problem was that they were Vampires.
They couldn't help it though. They had been made that way. Alice was a force to be reckoned with. Every day, there was a battle of the wardrobes. She insisted on treating me like some life-sized doll. But I soon put her in her place.
Rosalie was a true beauty but she was trapped in her melancholy. I'm glad she had Emmett, who had been more bear than human boy. He was always jumping out at me and it was rare that I would have to use my legs, because the family often carried me around, as though I were a pet.
Jasper, I was told, had not been in the family for long and he was not as confident around me. The only one I had a real problem was Esme. She was a wonderful motherly person but I couldn't be comfortable around her. Doctors would say I was separated from my mother too soon. For once I would have to agree.
Other than the Cullens, there were the people I met in Forks school. Being a graduate, I had no need for more education. Instead, I got a part-time job at the school as a teaching assistant. It felt good being amongst people my own age. Just your average group of normal people. There was Jess, the shopper, Angela, the introverted and studious, Ben, the love of Angela's life, Tyler, the boy whose truck nearly killed me. Then there was Mike, Jess's crush. He was the human equivalent of a Labrador, a breed of dog I had never really liked. For Jess's sake, I made sure I was never alone with him.
Then there was Jacob Black. A sweet and innocent boy, who seemed content to live on the reservation; forever playing the mechanic. Life in Forks was wholesome. There was no rush to be found, unless you were students, desperate to grow up and live in the big wide world. Life was peaceful. I spent the majority of my time with the Cullens, though I made concessions for everyone else.
However, all that changed when a trio of nomads caught sight of me with the Cullens. The scruffy one, James, tracked me to Phoenix, where he attacked and bit me. The Cullens arrived in the nick of time. Edward sucked the venom out and Alice made up a story that I had fallen down a set of stairs and through a window. My wounds matched the story, so no-one else contested it.
Edward briefly spoke of leaving, for my own good. I wanted him to stay and he promised me he would.
He promised me!
Now it's September and I find myself all alone.
He broke his promise!
What do you think?
