So, I'm glad to see that someone out there is reading. Hopefully I'll get my first review soon. On that note, it's going to be a few days before I can get to the internet again so I thought I would go ahead and post Chapter 3 for you. Enjoy it!

If any part of Twilight was mine, I would be able to post daily...

From Everything to Nothing – Chapter 3

The next morning Bella got up early enough to take a shower, wash and dry her hair, and get into one of her new outfits. When she left the house she was wearing a pair of skin tight black skinny jeans, a black low cut, body hugging top, black boots, and a black leather jacket. Her hair was hanging in loose waves down her back and a knowing smile on her face. As her confidence in herself increased her klutziness steadily decreased and by the time she reached the parking lot everyone was shocked at the new Bella climbing out of the hot new car in the parking lot.

When Bella got home that night she immediately started filling out college applications. By the next morning she had a stack ready to be mailed off so she stopped at the post office on her way to school to send them out. That was the way her days went for the rest of the week. By Friday Bella was ready for Charlie to come home so he could see that she was finally over Edward. Instead when she got home Friday afternoon there was a strange police car sitting in her driveway waiting for her.

As Bella got out of the car, two officers walked up to her. After introducing themselves to her they asked if they could go in the house and talk to her. It was her darkest hour. The officers were from Seattle where her dad had gone to his conference. During one of the meetings he was at a stranger had walked into the room and opened fire on the occupants. Charlie was the first to be hit and was killed instantly. The officers asked if there was anything they could do for her and then quickly escaped before the water works started.

The first thing Bella could think of was that she needed Jake. She ran to the kitchen and called the Black's but nobody was home so she tried calling Sam. When Emily finally answered the phone she couldn't understand anything that was being said, the only reason she knew who was calling was that the caller ID gave a name for the number. She promised to have someone there as soon as possible.

15 minutes after hanging up the phone the front door flew open and Sam, Jake, Quill, and Embry came running in the room. The sight that was waiting for them was the saddest thing they had ever seen. With a lot of effort and even more crying they finally got an answer to what was going on. Jake called his Dad and told him what had happened; he said he would have Sue Clearwater bring him over immediately. Then Jake pulled out Charlie's old phone book and found the number for Renee and tried to call her. The only thing he was able to get was an answering machine that was full. Finally Jake found Bella's cell phone and discovered a different number for Renee and called it. The shock of that call had all the guys shaking in fury. Renee told Jake to give Bella her condolences but she would not be coming to Forks and Bella was not welcome to come home either.

Billy, Sue and Sue's daughter Leah along with Emily showed up a few minutes later and couldn't believe what they were hearing. When Bella refused to go home with any of them Leah decided that she would stay there and help Bella and keep her company.
