Chapter 1
It's been three months since that night. Jon came back after dropping me and Mik off at the house to tell me that Michael was gone. I was devastated but couldn't dwell on it because of Mikayla. A week later my mother sent us to live with my former aunt that was married to my Uncle Charlie. She never understood how I could get pregnant by a vampire my dad on the other hand was happy for me but a month after I told them that I was pregnant he was killed by a rouge vampire in Texas that he was tracking. It was there that dad met two vampires that became fast friends of mine and dad's their names were Peter and Charlotte or Char for short. Today though, I was moving to live with my uncle.
I gripped my cousin's hand as we stood at the end of the driveway staring out over the desert, while I'm holding Mik on my right hip.
"Bella, Lisa!" Phil, my aunt's new husband called. "You know I love you both, but we've got a plane to catch."
"Let's go," I whispered.
Bella nodded and picked up the cactus that she had placed in a ceramic pot; together we headed towards my aunt, who smiled sadly, tears gather in my brown eyes.
"I'm going to miss you guys!" Rene exclaimed, hugging us one by one. "Especially our shopping trips, Lisa."
"Me too Aunt Renée, but it's not like we're not going to visit." she replied.
Rene sniffled, nodded and hugged us all again. I set Mikayla's carrier down and hugged back, my arms tightening around her, and causing her to shift slightly to keep her balance.
"Be good for Charlie, you hear?"
"Don't worry mom, we'll be fine," Bella stated.
"Yeah, I'll protect them." I crossed my arms over my chest and acted tough. "No one will mess with them if I have anything to do with it."
"Lisa, it's the thought that counts," Bella started. "But you are as capable of protecting someone as a toilet brush."
"That's not true!" she protested. "I refuse to listen to this abuse!"
"It's true though." Phil laughed. I turned and glowered in his direction.
"We're not friends anymore!" I sniffed dramatically.
"Oh the horror!" He clutched his chest. "I can feel my heart breaking."
"That's enough, kids!" Rene laughed, dragging us over to her husband. "We really do need to catch our plane."
"Come here Lisa." Phil held his arms out; I walked forwards and hugged him.
"I'm gonna miss you Philip," I declared.
"I'll miss you too," he replied and released me. "Oh, and by the way, stop calling me Philip!"
"Sorry Philip," she smirked and walked over to my cousin, who had been watching us in amusement, grabbed Mikayla from my aunt, and started to walk to the gate.
"That girl," he shook his head, "is crazy."
"I heard that!"
"You were meant to!" he called back.
I let out a sigh as I followed my cousin down the steps of the plane, she let out a shriek as her shoelace caught in the last step and she tumbled forward; I held out a hand and pulled my cousin to her feet.
"Are you okay?" I giggled.
"I'm fine, I deliberately got my lace stuck the step," she replied.
"Sure you did Bella." I began to walk towards the terminal.
"I did, I had it all planned out in my head!" She raced after me.
I grabbed my suitcases and waited for my cousin; we had just turned when we spotted my uncle.
"Bella!" Charlie called. "Lisa!"
I dropped my stuff, ran over to him and threw my arms around his neck tightly, grinning happily as he lifted my slightly off of the ground, something he used to do when she was a child.
"I missed you Uncle Charlie."
"Missed you too," he replied. "Hey Bells."
"Hey Ch-dad," she smiled while handing me Mikayla.
"Let's go, shall we?" He led the way out of the airport and towards a police cruiser.
The ride from the airport was silent and uncomfortable; Charlie glanced at Bella through his mirror.
"Your hair's longer Bella."
"Oh, I cut it since the last time I saw you," she replied awkwardly.
"Guess it grew out again." He cleared his throat. I giggled quietly, Charlie noticed and turned to me. "Your hair is straight for once."
"Yeah, I finally got it to cooperate." She ran a hand through my straight hair; it tumbled over my shoulders and down my back, appearing a deep red in the sunlight.
"Well, it looks nice."
"Thanks Uncle Charlie."
He nodded and turned his attention back to the road.
"This is your room Lisa, as well as Mikayla's." Charlie stated, setting our suitcases on the ground.
I smiled as I looked around my room; it was a simple room with sky blue walls, a walk-in closet, a reasonable sized bed, a bed side table and a dresser, a crib not too far from the bed, a blue quilt lay neatly on the bed with a white blanket on it, my room was situated at the back of the house, overlooking the woods.
"I love it Uncle Charlie."
She reached over and gave him a one armed hug; he sighed and returned it.
"I'll leave you to it." Charlie turned and headed out of the room, he closed the door behind him.
I glanced around my room before putting Mikayla in her crib so I could unpack then grabbed our suitcases and putting our clothes and shoes in the closet. Once I had finished, I grabbed Mikayla out of her crib, headed down the stairs, set Mikayla in the play pen that was in the living room, and went into the kitchen. I rummaged around the cupboards until I found a glass and filled it with water.
"Lisa!" Bella called.
I took a gulp of water and met my cousin in the hallway. My cousin tugged at my arm, gesturing towards the front door where a large, rusty red truck sat in the driveway.
"What is it?"
"Billy Black and his son Jacob is here."
I set my glass on the table before running out the front door and throwing my arms around Jacob's neck; he staggered backwards at the impact and hugged my back.
"It's good to see you too, Lisa." He grinned.
"I can't believe you're here!" she exclaimed before pulling back. "You're towering over me now!"
"It's not my fault you're a midget."
"Hey! I resent that!"
"It's nice to see you two again." Billy smiled. "I'm glad you're here, your uncle hasn't shut up since you told him you were coming, Lisa."
"All right, just keep exaggerating, I'll wheel you down the hill," Charlie threatened, causing me to snort in amusement.
"Right after I ram you in the ankles." Billy rolled towards Charlie, who laughed and dodged him.
"Are they always like this?" I asked.
"It's getting worse with old age," Jacob replied, leaning in towards me. "I think they like to act like kids because of it."
"Mid-life crisis?" I asked quietly, a mocking smile tugging at my lips.
"Affirmative," Jacob smirked.
"Bella, how do you like your home coming present?" Charlie gestured towards the truck in the driveway.
"This?" Bella's eyes widened. "This is my present?"
"Just bought it off Billy here," he replied.
"No way!" she gasped.
"I totally rebuilt the engine," Jacob bragged.
Bella smiled and opened the door, only to hit Jacob; she immediately began apologizing.
"All you gotta do is double pump the clutch when you shift, but apart from that you should be good," he explained while I heard Mikayla and went to grab her.
I rested my body against the side of the truck when I got back with Mik in my arms and glanced at Jacob. "Jake, do you want a ride to school tomorrow?"
"Actually, I go to a school on the reservation."
"That sucks, it would've been nice to know one person," Bella stated. "Yeah, it would, but we can still hang out at the weekend."
"That would be nice," he grinned.
"I'll come down in the afternoon on Friday," Bella input. "If that's okay?"
Jacob nodded enthusiastically, much to my amusement as I looked between my cousin and our friend.
"That would be great."
"I don't know if I'll be able to make it, I have to go to Port Angeles to find a car." I shrugged when they looked at me while I was watching Mikayla play in the grass.
"We could come with you," he said. "I mean, if you want to, that is."
"Sure, I would enjoy the company. That and it would be nice to have some extra set of hands with Mikayla."
"Great, maybe you could use the truck and come pick me up?"
"Sure, We'll pick you up after school before we pick Mik up from day care."
"Sounds good." He sounded a little too excited.
"Glad to know," I chuckled, nudging Bella lightly.
Jacob's mood only brightened and he swept them into a hug, pulling them tightly against his chest. my ribs began to ache from the pressure after a couple of minutes.
"I'll see you tomorrow Lisa, Bells, you as well little Mikayla."
We nodded and I hugged him one more time before he headed off and helped his dad in the car.
"Mikayla and I are going to go up to bed now." I yawned walking over to a yawning Mikayla and picking her up.
"I'm going to turn in too." Bella replied.
"Goodnight girls, I'll see you in the morning."
"Night Uncle Charlie." "Night dad." we said in unison before heading up the stairs and going into our separate rooms.
I changed into my night wear as well as Mikayla, put her in her crib before starting her CD Michael made for her then climbed into bed and turning the lamp off.
"Maybe this move won't be so bad," I thought as she drifted to sleep.
