A/N: Hey, sorry it's been a little while since I've updated. I've been in weird creativity slumps lately. I'll get an idea and write it then all of a sudden I don't know what to do next with it. This one however I've got a good general direction with it.

Let me know what you think of this story or any of my others. I love to hear from you guys so tell me more! (hint hint). ;)

Disclaimer: I do not own anything to do with Twilight or it's affiliates. If I did I probably wouldn't be posting my stories on and I'd be at least a thousandaire. XD

...But it's always the dream that counts and the hope that one day we write something that isn't crap and people might pay money to read...

Enough chatter. Read and Review!! and as always... Enjoy!

Dear Journal,

Another week has passed and much of the same has happened. School work, essays, homework, mom's wedding planning. Not much has really been going on around here lately. Well, I speak of home; the city is another story. I don't pride myself about living in a big city; it's alright. Crime has suddenly gone up around the neighborhood very suddenly with no witnesses or suspects thus far; vandalism, brake-ins, material objects gone missing and luckily only one person has been reported as injured. It was an older man, 3 blocks away; he came home and tripped on a brick that had been thrown through his front window. Sounds like something that would happen to me honestly.

Tomorrow I leave on my way to Forks to visit with Charlie. I'll be there for 2 weeks and come home the Saturday night before school starts back up.

Charlie has told me that the kids up there will also be off for fall break during my two week stay. Maybe I'll have someone to hang out with; then again I might pull the 'shy card' and hang back to just 'people watch' like I do here. Speaking of people watching, you wouldn't believe the stupid things that people do when they don't know someone is watching them. Ha! I was at the mall with my mom the other day and we were observing a group of teenagers; one was "covertly" picking his nose, another must have some sort of itching problem (they have creams and powders for that sort of thing ya know) and yet another teen, a girl this time, kept pushing her boobs up every time her guy turned his head. It was rather funny to watch her attempt at flirting. It didn't seem to work though as her guy kept his eyes on every other girl passing by.

Well, back to packing my last minute items and I've got to get my last shower at home out of the way too.

"The future is always inevitable yet ever changing and unpredictable."

I got up this morning at 4:30am to get ready for my trip. Two weeks in a freezing Hell; I don't know what else to say about that. I'll just have to make due with what I have and can do. Of course Arizona doesn't sell heavy coats or sweaters so I'll have to do some light shopping while I'm up there. Well, I did find my big coat but I really don't want to wear a coat that's three sizes too small.

"Mom! Phil? Are you guys up yet?" I yelled through the hall while dragging my suitcase through my doorway.

"Ya, sweetie. We're up; just getting dressed. Be out in a minute." She hollered back through her closed door.

I finally made it down the hallway to the living room and dragged my things to the front door. Mom came walking into the living room only moments later, fully dressed and ready to go. Ok, so she was hopping on one foot trying to put on her shoes while her shirt, I noticed, was inside out and backwards. I laughed under my breath at the sight of her. Should I tell her or wait for Phil to say something? I thought to myself.

"Did you want to eat anything before we go, Bella?" She asked while clenching her keys in her teeth.

Besides your keys? I thought to myself. "No thanks. I'm not sure I can fly on a full stomach. You know those 'barf bags' are there for convenience not for expectation purposes, Mom." She laughed at my comment shaking her head.

"I'm sure you'll do fine, Bella-baby. Let me go shove Phil outta bed one more time and see if he'll drive us or I'm taking you myself." She said walking off back down the hallway.

I hauled my luggage out the door and put it into the trunk of mom's midnight blue Honda Civic. She got it about a year ago when our old Ford Escort finally gave out. It was quite a pinch for us at the time but she was able to work out a good deal and also put in extra hours at the school where she taught kindergarten. I had offered to help out with bills by getting a job but mom refused to let me, on the grounds that I needed to concentrate on school and I'd have the rest of my life left for working at some monotonous job where I'd be underpaid and overworked and underappreciated.

Ten minutes later we were all piled into the car, mom having been told to turn her shirt the right way by Phil, and on our way to the airport that was about twenty minutes away. We listened to the morning talk nonsense, as there is no music playing on regular stations at 5am on a Saturday.

We arrived at the airport in better time than we expected although we had to make our way through the terminal roads and got all turned around twice before we made it to our destination. Phil hopped out to help me with my baggage and mom stood by watching and sobbing.

"Mom, you need to enjoy your time with Phil and relax. Okay?" she nodded still with tears in her eyes. "I'll be fine. I'll bet Charlie hasn't had a home cooked meal in forever; he needs me for now. I love you guys and I'll see you in two weeks. I've gotta get in there now though or I'll never make it through security." We embraced while I spoke and we both giggled at my last comment.

Phil hugged me briefly and we said our goodbyes. I hugged mom again and bid them farewell again.

Upon entering the terminal I had checked my big case at the door and carried my smaller bag with me as a carry-on. There weren't many people here so far. I made my way to the security check point and had to take off my shoes and every other thing before they let me through to the gates. They weren't kidding when they made jokes about airport security on those late night shows. I seriously was getting worried they'd take me in the back room to frisk me or something. But come on who remembers that they've got a rod and four screws in their leg? I mean seriously! Come on. That happend so long ago i barely remember it. Plus, as clumsy as I am, I have had so many broken bones and procedures done on me that my family and I are on first name basis in the local E.R.

I made it through security FINALLY and make it towards my gate where two attendants are doing that 'valley girl' thing while they talk amongst themselves. So annoying!

"Did I make it on time?" I ask the woman in a joking fashion. She gives me a curious look and tilts her head to the side as I hand her my ticket.

"Oh right. The plane… Gottcha. Have a seat for now and we'll call you when we are ready for your row." She said that with too much enthusiasm for it being before 6am. Too much caffeine I suspect.

"Thank you." With that I took a seat facing the giant window that gives us a grand view of… the plane nose. Boring! Well, I'm not here for the scenery. Speaking of scenery; hot guy alert! Whoo! He looks wonderful. Short cropped blonde hair and sparkling blue eyes. I blushed as he caught my stare; I looked away immediately as he kept walking by to the next set of gates where he immediately boarded his plane.

"Rows 25 thru 34 are boarding now. Please make your way to the gate attendants and present your ticket. Thank you for flying with us today." The announcement seemed to blare throughout the gate area we were sitting at. Did they really need to do that over the p.a. system; they could have easily just said it and we would have all heard it just fine.

I got up and gathered my things and went up to the valley girl attendant and handed her my ticket. She checked the info and ushered me forward through the tunnel towards the plane. Once I made it through the tunnel I was on the plane where more attendants greeted me and showed me where my seat was and helped me put my bag in the overhead compartment. After cramming the bag up there I sat down in my window seat wondering if I'd have to sit next to anyone. There was hardly anyone at the gate in the first place; maybe I'd be lucky.

We waited for another 20 minutes or so for everyone to take their seats and I was fortunate that with so few people on this flight that the rather large man that was to sit next to me was able to get a whole row to himself instead of sharing with me.

We were given the usual speech about the exits and emergency procedures etcetera. I ignored the flight attendant and put in my I-Pod buds and buckled up my belt so they wouldn't bother me if I took a nap.

Next thing I knew we were taxiing down the runway so I popped a piece of gum in my mouth so my ears wouldn't pop; I always hated that part. So, off we went at the speed of ridiculous and launched a giant metal craft full of humans into the air; in other words, we took off and were soon circling the city to gain altitude. When we were comfortably leveled out again I took out my gum and settled in for a relaxing flight.

Somewhere along the flight we were heading into a light storm; or so they said. It looked awfully bad out to me to be light anything. Rain never bothered me too bad but it was those big storms with potential tornadoes and huge lightening shows that always had my adrenaline running; this seemed like one of those. I closed my little window portal shade and gripped the arm rests and squeezed tight my eyes.

...TO BE CONTINUED.

Duh Duh Duuunnn. What happens!? O.O

Review and I might get it out faster.

Might... O.o

(good or bad, let me know what you think of my works thus far.)
