(Disclaimer; I don't own Twilight :][: )

Again, sorry it's short. I've been really busy, so I don't have a lot of time to write. But I promise that

they will start getting longer!

(Bella's Pov)

We got in the car and made our way home. The car ride was short. My mom seemed to be in deep thought, 'cause when I called her name she didn't hear me.

"Mom" I called a little louder.

She seemed to be startled. " Yes honey?" She said, looking over at me. She had what looked like sadness in her eyes, but that was weird. "Why would she be sad?" I thought to myself.

"um.. are you okay mommy? " I asked, confused.

"Yea, I'm fine...Why do you ask?"

"Well, you seem sad." I said, watching her face closely.

"I'm fine.." she said in a mono-toned voice.

"Come on, let's get you in a bath before dinner." I hadn't noticed that we were in front of our house.

"ok" I said, grabbing my backpack.

We made our way inside, and our house keeper was coming down the stairs. "Oh..Hello Ms. swan, hi Bella!" She smiled at us.

"Hello Elizabeth." Mom greeted her.

"Hi Izzy!" I called her by the nickname I gave her.

She giggled "Bella I have your bath ready." She said happily.

"YAY!" I said running up the stairs.

"Don't take too long Bella!" My mom yelled going in the kitchen.

"Ok" I said, running down the hall, Elizabeth behind me.

"AHHH!" I screamed, falling on my face.

"Bella!"Elizabeth screamed, running over to me. "Are you okay?" she asked, helping me up.

"yea, I'm fine " I said giggling.

"What's so funny?" She looked confused.

"You should have seen you're face!" I laughed.

"Well you could of hurt yourself, you are so clumsy. Now come on you should get in your bath." She said.

"okay! " I yelled happily.

After my bath, I got dressed in a yellow dress with a red bow in the middle of it. I was sitting on my bed, while Izzy was brushing my hair.

"So..Bella I heard that it's your birthday in two days, are you excited?" She asked.

"Yeah, I guess." I said, alittle down.

"What's wrong sweetie, you don't like birthdays?" She asked in concern.

"Well not really. My last birthday, my daddy left. The one before that, I broke my arm. All of my birthdays turn out horrible." I started crying.

"Oh, sweety, I'm sure you will have a good birthday this time." She said, wrapping me in a hug.

"Why do you think so?" I asked, looking up at her. She smiled and nodded. Come on, lets downstairs so you can eat." I took her hand and walked downstairs with her.

I really like Izzy. She's really pretty, she has long blonde hair and blue eyes, and she wears really pretty dresses. She's like a big sister to me. We made our way to the dining room, as my mom walked out.

"Oh, there you don't you look pretty." I blushed, as I said thanks.

We were sitting at the dinner table, and my mom asked if I was okay. I mumbled a "yea", and kept eating.

"So, are you happy that your birthday is in two days?" My mom asked.

You see, most four year olds going on five, would be jumping up and down at this. But me.... Not so much. So i just said yup, and continued eating. We didn't talk much after that.

" Okay, you can go and play, when you finish your pudding. I'll be in the den, working. Phil will be coming over tomorrow." And with that, she walked out. My smile vanished when she was out of sight. Phil was ok, but every time he comes over, which is alot, he and my mom ignore me.

Okay, so I might not be able to update for a while. I'm in the middle of moving. Ugh! But I will try to update as soon as I can! This chapter isn't that good, but the next chapter will be better and longer, I promise! :]

Please REVIEW! I would really appreciate it!
