A/N: Previously; I saw an immediate flash of pain cross his face, and then he looked almost angry.

"Kaitlin…" he said recognizing me.

I hope you have enjoyed the last two chapters. Please if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Review and ask or send me a message.. I'd really like to know what you all think. I would really like a minimum of 5 reviews on this chapter.. so I get to 10.. so please please review!!


I couldn't stop the tears as I walked over to my grandfather, his face was still filled with an expression of anguish and frustration. I didn't know if it was because I reminded him of his daughter- my mother, or because he didn't want to see me, but either way it was unsettling.

"Mike, what have you done?" His voice broke as he shifted his focus to Mike.

"I'm sorry?" Mike sounded confused.

"Where did you find her Mike? And…." He cleared his throat. "Why did you bring her here? Have I not been through enough?" he was pleading now. I felt the tears from my eyes accelerate.

"Sir, she's your granddaughter… I know this must be hard for you, especially because she looks so much like Bella, but Sir, she deserves to know about where she came from, she needs her family. She's only 17. The same age Bella was when she came to Forks- if I remember correctly." Mike pleaded my case.

Mr. Swan face was torn and his eyes glistened with wetness.

"Mike, she can't be here. I can't face this. It's too painful. Take her away." He said turning back toward the house. I couldn't let him walk away. He was the only one who could help me.

"No! Mr. Swan please wait!" I pleaded running after him and stopping in front of him. He stared at me with shock.

"Mr. Swan please… I just want to know a bit more about my past, about my parents… that's all… please Sir, just a few hours. Then I'll be out of your hair, I promise."

He looked torn again, almost defeated. We were all silent for a moment, then his face softened and a sad smile appeared on his lips.

"All right Kaitlin, but on one condition…"

"Anything…"

"I will answer all your questions, if you answer all of mine…"

"Yours?"

"About you… what you have been up to for the last 17 years, what your adoptive parents are like, what brought you here… etc"

I felt a smile appear on my face too, although I didn't miss that he said 'what you adoptive parents ARE like…'

"Yes, Sir."

"And call me Charlie."

I smiled as I followed him into the strangely familiar old house and Mike waved goodbye, leaving me with a number to call when I was ready to be picked up.

"So… you first Kaitlin… tell me about your life…" Charlie said as he handed me a cup of hot chocolate and sat down on the couch.

"Well The Roberts were amazing, they were lovely parents, I never even knew I was adopted until last month… they gave me everything a girl could ask for. We lived in L.A… and very comfortably… but I guess a part of me always felt like I didn't belong in their world, like it just wasn't MY life.. so when Officer Banks told me that I was adopted last month, it seemed to make sense…"

"Wait, Officer Banks? Where were your parents? Why didn't they tell you?" Charlie asked me then.

"Charlie, my adoptive parents died last month in a car accident…" I said quietly. I saw his face soften immensely as understanding washed over him.

"Kaitlin I'm so sorry…"

"Thank you… So when I was called into the station to be told about the crash, I was also told that I was adopted. And my quest to dig up my history and find ANY family at all, is what brought me here. The only thing Officer Banks told me that helped at all was that I was born in 'Forks Washington'. So I found the exchange program and one month later… here I am, living with the Newtons… little did I know that I would run into my history on my first day…"

"Kaitlin, you have to understand, it was never our intention to give you up. Bella had planned to raise you herself, she and I had temporarily moved to the La push, where we would stayed until you were born, Bella had lots of support, we would all help her raise you… but then one day while I was at work, she was spending the day with Jacob, they were going shopping for baby supplies- this was just after Bella had come home from the hospital with you- you were only a week old." Charlie's face was full of anguish as tears started to spill over, I could see that he never quite got over losing my mother. The tears from my own eyes spilled in response to seeing the pain he was going through, just to tell me the story.

"You were with Sam and Emily for the day, they adored you. Bella and Jake were on the way home when the wolf attacked, Jake was badly wounded as he tried to protect my Bella, but he…." Charlie trailed off, his voice shaky and scared. I went over to sit next to him.

"She was attacked by a wolf?" I asked in disbelief. That is how my mother died? She was attacked by a wolf? It just sounded so unbelievable… Charlie simply nodded before giving me a giant hug.

"Kaitlin I'm so sorry! After that I just couldn't look after you, Sam and Emily wanted to raise you as their own, but I said no. I couldn't bare the thought of you being raised anywhere near this, sad, lonely place. Bella had loved living in Phoenix with her mother so I decided that you should be raised in a big city too. I shouldn't have sent you away, I was being selfish, seeing you, it was so painful, you looked so much like your mother… Kaitlin I'm so sorry!" Charlie wept as he hugged me. I felt my tears fall out of control as I hugged him back.

"Stop it Grandpa, I understand, and there is nothing to be sorry for, I had a good life, the Roberts were amazing parents. I'm just glad to have found you now…" I said through my tears.

"Grandpa, what about my father?" I asked after the tears and sad moments had subsided.

"He left her 8 months before the attack…" he said with obvious anger in his tone.

"He left her?"

"They were in love, oh how Bella loved Edward, she never quite recovered from his leaving, he left a few days after her 18th birthday. His whole family just picked up and left town, supposedly they went to L.A…" he said, now in deep thought.

"So you haven't heard from him since then?"

"No.."

"So he doesn't know that my mother was pregnant?"

"I don't think he knew, after all she only found out herself a few months after he left…"

I thought about what else could help me uncover the mysteries of my past…

"Wait, what about Jacob? Is he still around? You mentioned that he was my mother's best friend…"

"Yes, he is still around, he and his family are still on the reservation down in La Push…"

I was sold. I had to see Jacob, he was with my mother at the end. He had been there. I had to talk to him.

"Grandpa, are there any taxis in Forks?"

"Where are you going Kaitlin?"

"To La Push…" I said with deep urgency in my voice.

Charlie seemed to be in deep thought, then he dug into a drawer and pulled out a small box.

"Here, take this" he said handing me the box. There was a key inside, what looked like a car key.

"The Truck is out the back, I never had the heart to sell it…" he told me. Then it sank in. he was giving me Bella's truck.

"But Charlie.. I…"

"You do know how to drive right?"

"Yes, offcourse but.."

"Here.." he was writing something on a piece of paper, before he handed it to me. They were directions. There were 3 numbers written underneath.

"This is Jacob's number, this is Sam's- Jake is often at Sam's house, and this is My number. Good luck Kaitlin" he led me to the back of the house where a big red truck stood. I sighed in defeat and got in the car. I put in the key and the loud engine of the old truck roared to life, giving me a fright. I rolled down the window and waved to Charlie, before driving off the in the direction he pointed out.
