Chapter 2: Just Another Day
"Oh, that reminds me Lillian has a daughter, about your age, her name is Angela, maybe you two could be friends?" Renee told me. I shrugged my shoulders, "Maybe," I said and got up to wash the dishes.
"Mom, what about school?" I asked. "Phil and I, decided that you could do continue your magic studies in Ravenwood, but you are only going there for school alright?" she told me. "Okay, okay I got it," I said, and went to my room. If I'm not going to have school here, then what am I supposed to do all day here? I got a piece of paper and a pen, and started writing down my options.
1. Get a job
2. Make new friends and hang out
3. Take care of the house
4. Roam around?
I groaned, these aren't good options, I ripped up the paper into pieces and threw it away. There is nothing for me in Forks. I decided that if there's nothing to do in Forks, then there's something for me in La Push. I grabbbed my keys and my jacket, and went downstairs, "I'm going out!" I yelled. "Okay, don't stay out too late!" Renee yelled back. I walked into the garage, a dark midnight blue convertable was sitting right there. "I love the Dogerman brothers," I said, as if there was someone else in the room with me.
I quickly got in the car, admiring it's beauty ad turned on the car, the engine was smooth and quiet, unlike my old Chevy truck. I pulled out of the garage and drove out of Forks city limits to La Push.
I stopped at the Blacks house, it has been ages since I last saw them. I knocked on the door, a boy opened it, I didn't recongnize him at first but then a memory resurfaced. It was me and a boy playing in the water. "Jake!" I said and hugged him. "Um, do I know you?" he asked. "It's me Bella," I said.
He looked utterly confused, "Mud pies?" I hinted. "Oh yeah! It's great to see you Bells, come in," he said, happily. I smiled, and went inside, it didn't look much diffrent, than last time. Practically the same, like no time passed at all.
"Where's Billy?" I asked. "He's in the living room," Jacob said. I walked to the living room, he was watching TV, "Hello, Billy," I said. He turned around, "Hey, Bella how are ya?" he asked shaking my hand. "Good," I replied.
"What brings you over here? Didn't you and your folks move to Florida?" he asked. "Yeah, but we moved back to Forks," I told him. "Well welcome back," he said, and resumed his attention to the TV.
))))))
"So, what did I miss over the past five years?" I asked. "Nothing much, it's good to have you back, Bells," Jake replied.
"Thanks," I said. 'Let's go to the beach, we got to catch up," he said, hopping off the couch and heading out for the door. I followed, we talked, I told him about Phoebe, Tabitha, everybody. Minus the we are not human and diffrent realm thing of course.
When I told him about my present from the Dogerman brothers, his response was priceless. His eyes got a bit wide, his mouth wide up, and he said, "Nuh uh! No way, a car!" "Yes, a car, a midnight blue convertible," I said. "Cool, I want to meet your friends," Jake declard. I laughed at him, "They are kind of far away, Jake," I told him.
"Pshaw, I still want to meet them," he said, shaking it off. "Okay, Jake, when they visit me I'll introduce them to you," I promised. He told me about his friends, and then how they were changing and joining the 'pack' with Sam. It was horrible, he was on the verge of tears, I hugged him, which needless to say made him feel much better.
"I gotta go Jacob, I'll see you tommorow," I told him. "Okay, see ya then," he waved. I nodded and walked over to my car, I looked back at Jacob, he was practically drooling over my car. I giggled, and drove back home.
))))))
"Bella, I need you to do some gorcery shopping for me, and please pick up Lillan's daughter from school, she is so busy with her new job, and Phil and I can't do it either," she started to say. "Because of your new jobs, I know," I finished for her.
she smiled, "Thank you, I got to get going I'll see you tonight," she said, gave me a peck on the cheek and left. Not long after she left, I went gorcery shopping, I got all of the things we needed, including a much needed new bottle of strawberry shampoo and body scrub.
I had a couple of hours left until, I had to pick up Angela, so I went to La Push and hanged out with Jake. We were watching some re-runs when I looked at the time, I only had 30 minutes until I had to pick up Angela for school!
"Oh crap! Jake I have to get going!" I said, jumping up from my seat. "To where?" he asked. I quickly explained, I put the key into ignotion, "Hold on, I'm coming with you!" Jake said, jumping in. "Why?" I asked. He smiled, "Because I like your car," he said.
I nodded, and sped down the road, careful not to get caught by an olice officer, especially my father, I don't know how I could make up an excuse after I handed him my ID card. I halted the car to a stop in front of the school, scaring Angela a bit, okay alot. I had tire streaks behind me, "Get in,"I told her. she quickly got in the passenger seat, and we took off, this time I followed the speeding laws, "I liked it better when you went crazy fast," Jacob muttered. I laughed, "Are you okay, Angela?" I asked. "Yeah, just shocked," she answered, breathless.
"Sorry, but I lost track of time, and I did not want to be late," I told her. "I understand, oh make a right over here," she said. I nodded and made a right, I stopped the car in front of her house."Okay, thanks," she said, before hopping out of the car, and walked to the front door.
I drove back to La Push, and dropped him off at his house telling him I'd see him later. I went home and made dinner, Renee came home first, then it was Phil slightly covered in mud. "What happened to you?" Renee asked. "I don't want to talk about it," Phil said. "Bent down too close to paw prints again?" I asked him, as he made his way upstairs. He sighed, "Yes," he admitted quietly.
