Chapter 1
After the long uneventful flight, the youngest Swan sister stands at the airport looking around for someone. She sees an older man with messy brown hair, wearing a Forks police uniform, across from her. She smiles excitedly as he faces her direction before looking around. That's him alright, she thought as she started walking towards him.
"Charlie?" She asked while smiling, as she stood in front of him.
"Alexandra." Charlie stated with a small smile. He's always been the only one to call me by my full first name. It's nice to hear his voice in person, Alexandra thought.
Alexandra gave him a quick hug before he could say anything else. She truly missed his hugs. Charlie gave an awkward smile in return.
He grabbed her suitcase as he started to head towards the entrance of the airport. She quickly followed after him, backpack on her shoulder. Since she mostly lived in a hospital, she didn't have much on her.
They walked in silence as they made their way to the police car. The car ride was awkward, both trying to think about a subject to talk about.
"Bella's excited to see you." Charlie stated awkawkwardly as he kept driving.
"I've missed her..." Alexandra replied softly with a sad smile. "I've also missed Forks. Seems like nothing's changed." Alexandra commented.
Charlie gave a side ways glance at Alexandra before focusing back on the road. "Everyone's missed you. They're all happy to hear that you're back." Charlie replied immediately after her comment, trying to hide his excitement.
He was hoping Alexandra ends up liking it here, in Forks, enough to stay after high school. He had heard she had plans to move in afterwards with her Mom, Renée. But just the thought of losing Alexandra, once again, made his heart ache.
"Everyone?" She asked him confused.
He nodded, "Everyone. Billy, Jacob, you know everyone down at the reservation." Charlie explained.
She nods, "Seems like they've all been waiting for a while now..." She said sadly.
Charlie frowned as he heard the sadness in her voice. He cleared his throat awkawkwardly, "You're here now." He responded simply, but that was enough for Alexandra.
She smiled at Charlie, "Actually Billy and Jacob are coming over today, said they wanted to be the first to see you." Charlie gave a small smile at the thought of his friend and his son getting to see Alexandra again. He knows they've missed her just as much as he has.
"That and there's probably a game today, huh?" She replied with a raised eyebrow. "Can't argue with that.", was Charlie's response, making Alexandra laugh. Charlie grinned at his daughter's laugh, he hasn't heard it in a while.
Alexandra goes back to looking out the window, surprised she still remembers the way home. She keeps having to tell herself, this isn't a dream.
The police car comes to a stop in front of a white two story house.
I've missed this place. It looks the same as how I left it, Alexandra thought.
"Come on. Bella's waiting inside." Charlie said as he passed by Alexandra with her suitcase.
Alexandra laughed lightly, knowing Charlie couldn't wait to have both his daughters be reunited once again.
