Chapter 11

They took their time driving to Forks. Even stopped at a few sights along the way. Bella was just enjoying being with Warren outside of school. Carefree and a couple doing normal things. It was nice.

"So your father I know he's a cop but is he normally a violent type person?" Warren ask her when they were only about 15 minutes from her dad's house. Chuckling Bella shook her head.

"No. He's usually a pretty calm person. If he does get mad you know because his face turns red but I've never really seen him mad. Even when he and my mom were married they fought all the time. Well she fought and he just let her until eventually she took me and left saying she needed some excitement in her life and my father was very set in his ways and just wanted to have a nice quite life." Bella told him and he nodded as they pulled up in front of her house.

It was a small two story white house off the main road and her father's police care was parked in the front.

"You'll be fine." Bella said kissing his cheek as she got out of the car. Warren took a deep breath before following her to the door. It opened before Bella could knock and Warren saw a tall man with dark hair and a mustache pull Bella into a hug.

"Bells. It's good to see you." Charlie said as he sat her back on the ground and turned to look at her boyfriend. Charlie ignored the long black hair and red streak and leather jacket. He knew that most people would see this boy and think bad news but knowing his daughter he knew he must be a good guy or she wouldn't have opened her heart again.

"Warren. Nice to meet you." Charlie said shaking his warm hand. He nodded and shook it back. Charlie already knew he had powers and what they were as Bella told him all about them.

"Nice to meet you as well Mr. Swan. Thanks for inviting me." He said and Charlie chuckled.

"You can call me Charlie. Come in." he said and Bella grabbed Warren's hand and pulled him into the house.

Bella knew Warren was nervous. This was totally new to him. Bella was his first real girlfriend and the only girl he'd ever fallen in love with and he wanted her father to see past the angry son of Baron Battle and like him.

"Why do I smell cologne dad?" Bella ask as she sat in the living room. Nothing had changed at the house since she left but she'd never smelt her father wear anything but after shave and the house reeked of a lingering smell of cologne. She knew something was up when he blushed and rubbed the back of his head.

"Well you see." He said and Bella chuckled.

"Are you dating someone dad?" he ask and he blushed even redder and sighed.

"Not really." Charlie told her.

"What do you mean not really?" Bella ask and Charlie sighed.

"It's Sue Clearwater from the rez. She's the mom of Seth and Leah two of the wolves from the pack and." Charlie said and Bella gapped.

"Wait. Hold up. What do you mean wolves from the pack?" Bella ask and Charlie groaned.

"Ugh. I forget you didn't know. Have you ever heard of the legends of the rez?" he ask and she nodded.

"Yeah Jake told me about them once. That's how I figured out what the Cullen's were. Wait. Are you telling me the story is real and the people on the rez turn into Vampire killing dogs?" Bella ask and Charlie nodded. Warren sat there listening to them not really sure what was going on but he'd ask Bella later.

"Yeah, Jake and the younger guys. Leah too. The Cullen's being here started it and I guess there's a couple Vampires trying to come onto the lands lately causing more of the guys to shift. Sue's husband died a while back Harry and I've been going over to Billy's a lot and well were not dating per say she's still grieving her deceased husband but she's nice and we talk a lot so who knows what the future holds. I think she likes having someone on the rez to talk to that knows what's going on with her kids. So were just friends." Charlie told Bella who nodded. So he wasn't dating but he wanted to one day and Bella was happy he was moving on from her mother finally after all these years.

"So you want to be in the running for when she is ready?" Bella teased and Charlie sent her a playful glare making Bella chuckle.

"So what Vampires are hanging around?" Bella ask Charlie who shrugged.

"Not sure. Not a Cullen though. Sue just mentioned it the other day when I ask where her kids were. I don't know any more than that or if there still around." Charlie said and Bella nodded.

They decided to head to dinner after that to the diner in town Charlie ate at a lot. Bella would go shopping later on for food she could cook while they were there as she didn't plan on eating diner food the whole time. While there they ran into some kids from when Bella went to high school.

"Hey Arizona." She heard and groaned before putting a smile on her face when Warren looked at her funny and turned to face Mike Newton and Jessica.

"Hey Mike, Jessica." She said and Mike Newton checked her out before Warren stood and slipped his hand around her waist and faced the two new people. Charlie watched with a smirk on his face. He never did like the way that Newton kid looked at Bella and it appeared Warren didn't either.

"Bella I didn't know you had moved back?" Jessica ask with a fake smile on her face as she checked Warren out and Bella just rolled her eyes.

"I didn't. Were just visiting. This is Warren my boyfriend. Warren this is Mike and Jessica. We went to high school together." Bella said and Warren nodded and reached over and shook Mike's hand really hard and Mike winced.

"Well we'll let you get back to dinner. See ya around." Mike said before pulling Jessica out the door. Bella and Warren taking a seat across from a chuckling Charlie.

"Don't even start dad." Bella huffed and that made him laugh even harder and Warren chuckled.

Dinner was nice and friendly and they talked about nothing of importance before they headed back home.

"Well I'm beat I'm going to turn in. Yall have a good night." Charlie said.

"Oh and while you're sleeping in Bella's room no funny business." Charlie said and Bella gapped at him.

"Wait. You're gonna let us share a room?" she ask and he shrugged.

"You're both adults so I can't stop you but like I said. No funny business under my roof while you're not married." Charlie said and Warren nodded quickly and promised as her father walked upstairs to his room and Bella was shocked. She like Warren figured he'd be sleeping on the couch.

"I'll get our bags and meet you upstairs." Warren told her and she nodded as she went upstairs. Her room was the same. He hadn't changed anything and she smiled. It was nice to know he didn't turn her room into something else the moment she left.

Warren came in quickly and shut the door as Bella stood there biting her lip.

"Are you ok? I don't mind taking the couch if you're not comfortable with this." He ask and she shook her head.

"No, no. I'm fine. I want to snuggle up to you all night it's just, I don't know weird that he's ok with this. I think that means he likes you." She said and he chuckled.

They changed after that and snuggled down into her queen size bed. Warren pulled her against him and she lay on his chest and sighed before falling fast asleep.

Warren knew the next morning when he woke up with his face buried in her hair, her back to his chest and they were snuggled tightly that he'd never be able to sleep alone again. Not this good. All they did was sleep and it was the best sleep of his life. Like he agreed they wouldn't be doing anything under her father's roof but besides that he knew Bella wasn't ready and that was fine with him. But sleeping in the bed with her had been everything he knew it would be and now wanted to wake up to her every morning. God he had it bad.

"Morning." She mumbled and he chuckled as he kissed the back of her head.

"Morning beautiful." He told her and she snorted.

"What do you want to do today?" she ask him and he shrugged.

"You tell me. What's there to do around here?" he said and she turned over and looked at him.

"Not much. Most people either hike or fish. There are some beaches on the rez. Shopping is done over in Port Angeles." She said and he nodded.

"I like hiking. We can do that. I haven't been in years." He said and she chuckled.

"Ok. But be prepared to catch me a lot. I'm not a graceful person." She said and he chuckled and promised not to let her fall.

They let Charlie know where they were going and he told them to be careful. He was working that morning and would be back early afternoon. Bella and Warren drove to the main hiking trail in town. They walked the entire trail for quite some time. Warren really liked the area. It was untouched and peaceful.

"Wow what a view." He said as they came up to the top of the trail. It over looked the mountains and you could see the ocean a long ways off. Bella nodded as she looked at it. She'd never realized how pretty the town really was.

"Well, well, well. Who do we have here? Bella? We've been look for you." They heard and spun around and Bella gasp in shock and fear as Warren push her slightly behind him.

"Laurent." Bella gasp in shock as they stared down the red eyed Vampire that was smirking at them and Bella knew this wasn't going to be good.
