Bella Unknown
Chapter Three - I really hope I don't crash
Putting my plan into action, I got dressed and descended the stairs.
Surprisingly it wasn't the descending that weirded me out, it was wearing the clothes of Edward's (sigh) wife.
Nothing says stalker like wife impersonation.
Though if 'Bella' is still living at home, I guess there not married yet
Pushing (forcefully) that thought to the back of my mind I enter the kitchen.
I was right about the smell of burning pancakes. Charlie acted all innocent with his news paper and coffee but I could smell them in the trash can from the doorway.
"Sorry bout the pancakes ah dad. If you weren't busy checking if I was dead, I'm sure they would have been fine"
He chuckled "Don't worry bout it Bells, I'm sure they would have burnt with or without the near heart attack you gave me"
"Heart attack ehh, If your cholesterols to high, I'm sure I could go and remove all that fatty bacon from the freezer" It was nice imagining I had someone to care about.
It took him about 2 seconds after the word freezer passed my lips to be standing in front of it; chest puffed and arms crossed.
I could not help the giggle that escaped my lips.
"Oh My I believe there's still hope for you yet dad. With speed like that at least I know your health hasn't declined too much"
From the twitching of his lips I was sure he was holding back a smile the size of his shiny Sheriff badge.
"Now Bells I'm sure you know talking to your elders like that isn't very nice"
"Oh of course dad, forgive me for my horrendous miss-conduct. But by the way ..." I looked at him side ways as I picked up the discarded news paper to check on the local news in my hallucinated town "You just called your self old"
And with that I burst out into a fit of unrepressed laughter which boarded on hysterics at this crazy situation.
Finally having calmed myself I chance a glance up at Charlie to see him leaning against the fridge with a small smile on his face.
"Glad I could amuse you kid. But if you don't get going, you're going to be late for school"
"Oh right, School" I kind of forgot about the whole school part. I was more focused on meeting my favorite vampire family in the world.
"Come on Bells it's your first day. At least try to have fun"
Wait it's my first day? That means Twilight hasn't even happened.
"Yeah I'll try dad. But I'm not making any promises"
"Wouldn't expect ya to kid. But let's get going. I took the morning off to see you off but I think I'll head out now too.
"mmkay, thanks dad" referring to him taking the morning off.
"No problem bells"
We're soon standing on the porch staring at the most ugly car in the world.
I don't know whether I should thank Charlie the lame way Bella did in the book, or if that had already happened.
So instead I settled on staring at it as if I was in shock.
"So ahh Bells do you like it. It's the truck I told you about yesterday. You know Billy's old one"
Ah Billy. Billy, Jacobs's dad. Jacob Bella's future son in law. The Jacob Bella kissed. Yeah. That never really sat right with me.
Right time for appropriate loving daughter reaction.
I turn to Charlie slowly, wide eyed and slack jawed staring at him for a total of 0.5 second before scaring the shit out of him by squealing and jumping on him for a hug.
I thought hugging a stranger would be weird but I never really had a dad so it was kind of nice.
"I'm glad you like it Bells. I thought it be perfect for you. Nice and sturdy" I seriously wanted to snort.
Bella really is clumsy. But I never have been. I'm proud to say I can walk on a flat surface with out tripping.
"Thanks dad. It was nice of you to think of me"
"No problem Bells. But you better get going"
"Alright see ya later"
"See ya tonight kid"
And with that we walked to our respective cars and I watched him drive around the corner.
As I sat in 'My' car though I only had one thought.
I really hope I don't crash.
Thanks for Reading .S
