A/N: Hello
A/N: Hello! Thank you so much for the reviews… enjoy!
Previously:
"Bella, you took me by surprise, how did you get here? Does your grandfather know you're here?"
"Dad, can I just stay here for a couple of months?" I hope he wouldn't ask more questions…
"Of course, I'd be very glad." He grabbed my luggage and led me into the house. It still looked the same, the furniture were where they were the last time I was here.
"I'll put this in your room now" he carried my luggage and I could see that he was aging, knowing be the fact that he couldn't lift my heavy luggage…….
I knew it, this would be a long day……
Chapter 3:
BPOV
So, in the end I was the one who got my luggage up. Charlie wasn't really that old. He was in his early forties. He was chief police officer in forks, which is funny because his late wife and teenage daughter were both professional assassins. It was still summer, there were 5 more days until school starts, just the right amount of time to get me settled in.
When I went inside my room, I felt relaxed and calm. The room had a certain atmosphere that was even better than my own in Chicago. I never used this room when I was here, Grandfather would always book me in the one and only hotel here in forks when I visited. I sat on my bed and let my surroundings disappear as I my eyes fell into darkness…..
"Bella, Bella" someone was waking me up… then I realized it was Charlie. I woke up and sat up straight.
"Bella, I have to leave now, the station wants me to be there until tomorrow." Charlie said as he walked to the door.
"There's food in the refrigerator if you want to eat dinner… I'll be going now, bye" he left and a few moments later I could hear footsteps downstairs and a loud bang at the door. I looked at my wrist watch and noticed it was only 4 o'clock, too early for dinner… just as I was going to my closet to start unpacking….
Now if she does it like this
Will you do it like that?
Now if she touches like this
Will you touch her like that?
Now if she moves like this
Will you move her like that?
Come on, shake, shake
Shake, shake, shake it
Shake, shake
Shake, shake, shake it (x4)
It was my phone. I grabbed it and looked at the address. It was grandfather… I was hesitant to answer it, I never liked it when he was angry. Who would?
"Hello" I said questionably, the truth is the only person I was ever afraid of failing was my grandfather. He didn't hit me or say foul words to me, but he was a man of few words and what he says is law.
"Isabella, come home this instant. Your grandmother is very upset with you, and you've missed your training. I'll send someone to fly back with you to Chicago." His voice was tired, so he didn't sound angry. I felt guilty, my grandmother was depressed and all she thought about was me. She has been a mother figure to me all my life, and never once did I want to leave her, feeling depressed and betrayed. But I had to find out what the world has to offer, what I had been missing…..
"I'm sorry grandfather, but please give me some time. I'll continue my training here, and I'll be back soon… and" he cut me off "Isabella, you have so much work to do, it's you our clients want!" his voice was demanding this time. Making me feel guiltier...
"But grandfather, it's now or never, just some time and everything will be back to normal" I was tuning down my voice, trying not to sound desperate. He gave out a large sigh.
"Okay, but I'll send William and Rodriguez there, and you have to train regularly." Oh great. Just what I needed, the annoying cricket.
"Fine, please tell grandmother I love her, and take care grandfather, goodbye" I snapped my phone shut. And absorbed everything we talked about on the phone. That jackass, CRICKET was coming and so was William. I have nothing against them outside our organization, but when we start training, let's just say devils really do exist………….. Rodriguez basically looks weird. He's big and blond, fat like a sumo wrestler, lazy as potato, but if you see him fight, it's like a tornado has passed. And William, he's young and muscular, but he may seem tough, but wait till you see his garden. Just like what my grandfather says 'looks can be deceiving'……
Rodriguez's daughter, Rosalie was one of my best friends. We lived minutes apart and would always have sleepovers at my house with my other best friend Alice. Unlike Alice, Rosalie knew what my real job was and understands what I feel. I hope Alice would forgive me…….. Cricket, is what I call him, but of course I wouldn't call him that in front of his face or I'll not be standing here at Charlie's house. He has been with my grandfather long before I was born, when my mother was still in training. He taught me martial arts and was my mentor….. he was a very important part of my life…. But he's still a cricket.
William was a kind man, caring and responsible. He wasn't as old as Charlie, he was only 25 when he joined grandfather's organization when I was 5 years old. He never had children nor a wife. He was a fatherly figure to me, he taught me archery and gun shooting, which of course I have mastered already.
I cleared all my thoughts, thinking about the present and not the past. Grandfather will definitely call me later. I let out a heavy sigh and walked towards my closet, continuing my business before my phone call earlier. I opened the wardrobe and put my clothes in it. After that, I looked at my clothes and saw that they were all expensive looking, and too formal o wear to school. so I have no choice but to go to the mall, hell on earth…..
I grabbed my purse and went downstairs and opened the refrigerator. There was my dinner, a plate of frozen chicken and pees… on second thought, I'll go eat dinner at the mall.
I took out the extra house key Charlie gave me earlier and locked the door. I was taking a cab, since I have no car here in forks. After my first ever cab ride, oh, yeah, that was my first time ever to ride a cab, I was finally at the mall, I looked at my wrist watch, it was 5. I paid the man a hundred and told him to keep the change, I got out of the cab only to find the man staring at the bill. Oops maybe a hundred dollars was too much….. I walked to the mall and got through security. I passed by a mirror, and saw my reflection, I was wearing a dress shirt, and my hair had ringlets. I went through all the interesting shops that afternoon, and found many things that would be suitable for school. then my stomach suddenly grumbled, and I decided it was time for my dinner.
I decided to eat in an Italian restaurant, just because it had less people and it would be really embarrassing to carry a at least dozen shopping bags in a crowd filled fast food chain..
"what would you like to order miss?" a waiter approached my table and gave me a menu. I picked the first thing I saw in the menu and ordered that.
"one mushroom ravioli, and a coke" I said in a calm voice, he walked away and a few minutes came back with my food, I started to eat.. Then a bronze haired boy walked toward my table and said the words I never thought I would hear in my first day here in forks..
"Hi I'm Edward Cullen, you must be new here." I was shocked by how this emerald eyed man approached me. I stood up and left a fifty dollar bill and walked away only to find out that he was still following me… this man was too desperate. He kept following me where ever I went, to the escalator, to the jeweler's and other shops, he even offered to take my bags and carry it. I was so pissed off, that I wanted to shoot him. Just when I thought I could do that, I looked back, and he was gone. Great. Was that a prank or something?
I went to a car dealer at the mall, and decided to buy an Aston martin (A/N: PICTURE IN PROFILE!!). the man was surprised that a teenager could be able to afford a car, and not just any other car, but an Aston martin… I paid in check and filled in the papers…..
Then I walked out of the shop, noticing that a group of men, muscled and mysterious started to gather around me.
What the hell??
