Chapter 9

**Bella**

Two weeks had passed since he first moved in, and since that first meeting, I hadn't seen him again, nor had I learned his name.

It was the first sunny day in Forks since he arrived that I finally saw him again.

I was outside hanging our laundry to dry, when I smelled something burning. It was coming from the old Victorian house.

The kitchen window suddenly flew open and billow of black smoke and expletives poured out from it.

"Are you okay?" I shouted, running toward the window.

"I'm fine, but my lasagna isn't," he replied sounding half amused and half exasperated.

He stuck his head out the window coughing, and what I saw nearly brought me to my knees.


A/N

What Bella? What did you see? Burnt lasagna stinks really bad...

Next update tonight.
