Thank you to all those who reviewed, I hope you continue to read and review this story. Enjoy.
CHAPTER TWO
As I bought the groceries making sure to get enough for a small army of twelve people as well as ten burner phones. I thought about all that Bella had told me about the Cullen's. I couldn't get her fascination with a dead guy but that wasn't even the biggest problem for the biggest problem for me was that those idiots had introduced her to danger in the form of three human bloodsuckers and then they just left. Leaving her unprotected and in a forest to boot! I could feel my anger surging threw my veins and took several deep breaths and thought of past memories that had been fun. After calming myself down I silently vowed that if I ever met the Cullen's they were going to feel my wrath even if Bella who I had no doubt would take them back, got mad at me. They needed to realize that even though they were un-dead and not easy to kill there were still consequences for their actions.
After paying for the groceries I put them all in the bed of the truck underneath the tarp that I had put up since it seemed to rain on and off every day in Forks. I sat in the truck for a minute thinking about what I was going to do with the information that I had Lin gather and send to me. After deciding on my next course of action I dialed the number for Alice Cullen's cell-phone. "Hello who is this? How did you get my number?" A high female voice said, the tone was happy but with an edge of sadness. "Figure it out pixie. I can't stand your kind you leave someone you called 'sister' alone in a forest unable to defend herself against the danger you bloodsuckers put her in and you leave without telling her and let her with an idiot who says that he no longer loves her and then he steals everything that has to do with you and your clan from her and leaves her in a deep depression!" I snarled before hanging up and taking the battery and SIM card out of the burner phone. Then I broke the SIM card and phone and tossed half of the SIM card out of the window in the parking lot and the other half out into the forest while I was driving. When I got back the Uncle Charlie's I put the broken phone pieces into the garbage and put the battery into my backpack before putting away the grocery's and making supper.
I decided on using recipe's from France for supper and made sure that I had the ingredients for Chicken Cordon Bleu II, Potage aux Legumes, and for desert Crème Brulee. After seeing that I had everything except for the Rum for the Crème Brulee and the wine that I knew would make the meal perfect, I called Uncle Charlie at the Police Station to let him know I was making supper and then saw that it was almost time for me to pick up Bella. I drove to the High School and got there just as the final bell rang and kids started to pour out the doors. I hopped over into the passenger side and let Bella drive us home, we talked a little bit. Bella mostly asked questions about what I had been doing since she last saw me. I answered as honestly as possible about everything however something's I skipped over all of the parts seeing as how some of the things I had done weren't completely legal. I had Bella stop at a liquor store so I could buy the Rum and wine and then we headed back to the Swan residence. I set about getting supper ready and Bella did her homework at the supper table sipping on the small glass of wine that I had given her under the promise that she wouldn't tell either of her parents. I had my Ipad softly playing my jazz station on Pandora while I sipped on my own glass of wine.
Bella was finished with her homework just as supper was done so she cleared off the supper table and then helped me set it and get everything on it. We set it for three however that changed to five as Charlie called to tell us that he had invited Billy Black and his son Jacob to join us. I set the table for two more people and shut off my Ipad while Bella finished her small glass of wine. Soon I heard Charlie's police car pull up and another vehicle pulled up seconds later. I was unsure on how to act since I knew that my mother had been one of the Quileute tribe even thought she hadn't had contact with them for many years now. Thankfully there was no awkwardness and no one said anything about my mother. We all sat down together and ate and everyone enjoyed each dish although I knew at the start everyone was slightly un-sure about the food. I decided to bring out the French Vanilla ice-cream to eat along with the Crème Brulee or in place of it if they wanted. After everyone was filled up I started putting the food away, Bella and Jacob helped and soon everything was in container in the fridge and all the dishes were washed, dried and put away. Bella, Jacob and I went out to the porch and without thinking I opened my brand new pack of cigarettes and lit up one. I had just taken a deep drag of it when Jacob spoke, "So how do you two know each other?"
I took another drag before looking over at him, I let it out through my mouth before I answered, "I'm Bella's cousin." I said letting things at that Jacob accepted my answer before turning to Bella and talking to her. Bella answered a few of his questions but she wasn't really ready to talk to other people just yet and after a few minutes of silence there was awkwardness in the air. I put out my cigarette which was pretty much used up and broke the awkwardness, "So Jacob do you play sports?" I asked. "Well me and my friends play football sometimes." Jacob replied. "Well then do you want to toss the football around until it gets dark out?" I asked. "Sure." Jacob replied. I saw Bella toss me a grateful look as I walked down the front steps and pulled the football that I had bought just because I needed another item in order to get a great deal. We began to toss it back and forth and soon we started joking with each other, by the time it was dark out and Billy was ready to leave Jacob and I were friends. And Jacob had made me promise to go down to the reservation in a few days so he could introduce me to his friends and maybe play a game of football.
Jacob went inside to say goodbye to Bella and Charlie leaving me and Billy outside alone. That's when Billy spoke to me, "Your mother is Elizabeth Clearwater right?" I nodded, "Yes." Was all I said. "Would you please pass a message to her from me?" Billy asked. I looked at him for a moment, "Sure." I finally said. "Tell her we all miss her and none of the numbers have changed if she wants to talk." Billy said as Jacob came out of Uncle Charlie's house. I gave a single nod to let Billy know I would tell my mother his message before I turned around and said goodbye to Jacob then headed up the front steps and going inside.
