Chapter seventeen: It's serious.

"I can't believe they are still on the phone!" I said for the millionth time to Bella on my cell.

I looked around the corner, watching my mother talk to Charlie while sitting on the couch, flirting like a teenager. Bella was watching on the other line watching him as well.

"Do you think this is serious?" Bella asked almost gagging as Charlie told Kelsey she had a cute laugh.

Shivers shot down my spine as soon as my mother told Charlie he has a cute sneeze. "Maybe. They are so weird together. Why do they keep saying stupid shit?"

"Back then that's what they must have said to each other. Gross,"

"Remember last night when Charlie told my mom she had a nice posture? Oh my gosh! I never laughed so hard in my life, even if I held it in," We both busted out in obnoxious laughter.

"I-thought-I-was-going-to-hurl!" Bella said in between laughs.

I couldn't even talk because I was laughing so hard. It didn't dawn on me that my mother started paying attention to my conversation with Bella.

"And when she fed him food, that was disturbing!" I laughed.

We shared a quick laugh before my mother cleared her throat, standing in front of me.

My heart practically stopped in place. I stopped laughing immediately.

"What was that Avril Marilyn Love?"

Bella stopped laughing when she heard my mom speak. "Call me back!"

"Bye," I hung up my cell, placing it in my pocket. "I love you," I shrunk under her glare.

Never in my life have I been so scared of my mother like I am now. She had this one look she would always give me when I really pissed her off. I'm in so much trouble. Maybe talking so close to her wasn't the best idea ever.

She hung up the phone with Charlie, crossing her arms over her chest. Her foot tapped with annoyance as I decided to sit on the floor.

"I don't say anything about you and Jacob. You don't need to say anything about me and Charlie," She said, using her serious voice.

I nodded my head. "Sorry, I'm a teenager, what do you expect? Your dating my best friends father. It's really weird for us so making fun of you two made it all better,"

Kelsey flipped her blond hair. "I'll remember that next time I know you and Jacob are having sex in my house,"

She smirked once and headed to her room, slamming the door behind her. Man, did I really piss her off that much? We haven't lived here that long and she is already falling for someone. Wait, I can't say that because I've already fallen for Jacob. But this is Charlie were talking about! From what Bella told me he used to be so stuck on Renee his ex!

Maybe I should tell her that. Kelsey should understand right? I mean she still loves my dad, but hates his guts at the same time. Charlie is still in love with Renee though. If she decides to come back to him, leaving her new husband now, he would take her back in a heart beat. At least that's what Bella tells me.

Shut up, shut up, shut up. I need to be happy for my mother. I'll support her with this whole Charlie thing but if it backfires, she is not crying on me all the time again.

My alarm clock beeped obnoxiously just like every morning. I turned it off, pulling the covers away from my face. I pulled back my curtains noticing the rain slash down on the ground. Another rainy day, when was it going to end?

I pulled on blue faded jeans, pink tank top, and a black vest. Since it was raining, I left my hair down. The rain would have messed it up anyways. I put on my waterproof makeup just in case the rain got near it, I hated when my makeup got messed up.

Kelsey didn't make a big breakfast like usual before I go to school. She must have been still mad at me for last night. I poured myself a bowl of Coco puffs and ate slowly.

She came out of her bedroom wearing her work clothes. I smiled at her hoping she would smile back. But no, she didn't.

"Mom, please don't be mad. I'm sorry about making fun of you. Its just new to me and I'm happy you found another guy other than dad. But its Charlie, it will take some getting used to. I promise not to say anything else about him or you being together," I rambled on, telling her what she wanted to hear.

Kelsey smiled. "Thank you honey. I love you so much and it means a lot to me that your going to try. That's all I ask from you," She kissed my head. "Now get to school, your going to be late,"

"Okay," I grabbed my pink backpack. "Love ya mom, bye!"

Edward, Bella, Jasper, and Alice were waiting for me by our usual parking spots. I jumped out of the car and hugged each one of my friends.

Quickly, I explained to Bella what happened after we got off the phone with my mom. Edward decided to read my thoughts before I could even begin, he was already laughing. Alice joined in, wanting to know what was so funny.

She laughed for a minute then almost fainted. The thought of Charlie dating after being so stuck on Renee surprised her.

"Don't ruin this for Charlie you two," Alice started. "He deserves a woman to love,"

We giggled. "Okay Alice, we won't ruin anything," I agreed.

"You should see them together though. It's really funny," Bella said smiling.

Alice shook her head. "Can you two be anymore impossible?"

I looked at Bella and she looked at with me with a smirk across her face. "Probably," we said in unison.

"Now that's funny," Jasper said chuckling.

"Come on lets get too class," Edward said guiding us all towards the buildings.

"Ugh, I hate you," I said swinging my backpack around my shoulder.

Edward smiled, taking hold of his girlfriend's hand. "And you have to see me all day. Doesn't it suck hating people?"

"I will not hesitate to slap you," I lifted my hand up in warning. He could probably block it before I could even try and slap him. Stupid vampire powers.

All he could do was smirk. Bella gave us her 'don't say anything else' look. We didn't say anything else, till we got into class. Then we all just chatted before Mr. Mason could teach us anything.

Jacob was leaning on the drivers door of the Challenger when school ended. I jumped into his arms, wrapping my legs around his waist. His arms locked on my butt, keeping me from dropping. He gave me a hello kissed while a few people watched.

Bella, Edward, Jasper, and Alice all watched us a few feet away. It didn't even bother me one bit.

"How did you get here? I don't see your rabbit or bike," I said looking at my surroundings.

"I ran here," Jacob replied, shrugging his shoulders.

Out of the corner of my eye I could see Edward ready to make his comment. Bella pushed him into the Volvo waving me goodbye. They sped off seconds later.

"Well get in the car. Let's get home. I've missed you,"

"I missed you too but I'm driving," He grabbed the keys from my hand.

I jumped into the passenger side throwing my backpack in the back. "Who's house?"

"Mine, my dad is gone,"

"Perfect,"

He started the engine, zooming out of the parking lot.
