Fear
New Home
Bpov
Charlie was greatly upset with the fact that I was leaving, he seened to think he had done something wrong seeing as I had only been here for about a month. I knew it would hurt him to just up and leave him again after he had spent so many years alone.
But this had to be done.
It is Saturday morning and I have five hours untill my one o-clock flight to Jacksonville, Mum was over the moon with excitement but Charlie was the complete opposite and was still trying to get me to stay.
"Bella, I know that I might not be the best father, but we could do allsorts of stuff together." Another one of his attempts at keeping me, I really do feel sorry for doing this to him.
"Dad, please dont make leaving you any harder, I have made up my mind and I am going to Jacksonville"
"You dont have to leave, you are'nt a burden or anything. I still dont understand why you are leaving so soon"
"I have told you, I just cant stand the constant rain and cold. And I want to get out and go places like New York and California. I just do'nt want to stay here in Forks, this town just doesnt suite me." I could see the hurt in his eyes, somewhere deep down Charlie knows that it isnt the town which is driving me away, he just doesnt know that the real reason behind it is the fact that my (former) biology partner is a vampire.
"Ok, but just remember you are free to visit any time you like, for as long as you like" He is really suffering here, but atleast he knows that trying to make me live here is a lost cause.
By the time we had finished our conversation all of my bellongings were packed into Charlie's cruser, ready for the flight to Jacksonville.
The car ride to the airport was silent, niether Charlie or I had much to say, we were very much alike in some was.
"Can all passengers for flight KD925 to Jacksonville make their way to terminal six. I repeat will all passengers for flight KD925 to Jacksonville make their way to terminal six" As the announcement for my flight was heard over the loudspeakers I said goodbye to Charlie.
"Bye Bells, be safe"
"I will Dad -" especially with no vampires around to drink my blood "- I will miss you, I promise to visit in the holidays. Goodbye." We had one last hug before I left. Call it intuition but I had a strange feeling, like this was the last time I would ever see Charlie and that for the previous reason this hug needed to be savoured.
Ha what am I thinking its only five weeks untill holidays, at which point I will be back to visit. What are the chances that something terrible happens and we never see eachother again? I can answer that - nill, zero, not a chance in the world, the worst that will happen is me breaking several bones.
"Well you had better catch that plane it would be a shame if you missed it."
"Oh right, the plane, I forgot. Bye Dad." I called, waving while I made my way to terminal six.
"Bye Bells" I could no longer see Charlie as I turned a corner.
The flight itself was'nt bad, all the time I spent on the plane I was thinking about seeing the sun, and not worrying about stepping in puddles, and being thankfull that the roads will never be icy enough for any vehicles to lose controle and make me a Bella pancake.
It only took an hour to get to my destination, and then another half hour to get my luggage and find Mum and Phill.
"Oh Bella, I am so glad you decided to come home, you dont know how much I worried about you, how was your flight?" Renne was practically bouncing off the walls.
"the flight was fine Mum"
"Oh thats great to hear, and how is Charlie?"
"He is well, he was a little upset with me leaving but apart from that he is pretty good." Renne knew what I was talking about, she knew that this would hurt Charlie, but it was my choice.
While we drove to my new home Renne bombarded me with questions about my life in Forks, my friends, my school, anything that she could think of asking me about she asked it.
I was very thankfull that the drive was not very long, because the last question she asked me was if I chose to move because of boy touble. She had no idea how close she was with that one, but never in the way that she imagined.
The house was a reasonable size, four bedrooms, onsuite bathrooms and a large living area. I loved it.
I went upstairs to unpack, my room was nicely decorated with cream walls and ceiling, there were floorboards with a light cinnamon coloured shag rug in the center of the room, the bed and furnature were part of a set they all were dark brown timber. The general effect the room had was welcoming and made me feel at home.
I finished unpacking and decided to spend the rest of the day soaking up the sun, I am seriously considering that my time in Forks had made me vitamin D deprived.
The heat on my skin felt so good, I was in pure bliss, but was brought back down to Earth when I realised that I star school again in one day, oh god now I have to do the new girl thing allover again.
