Charlie POV Sunday - June 22nd
I didn't really get much sleep after getting home last night. All I could think about was my daughter and her family, whether they were really dead or if they just went into hiding like Bella claimed they would. I know it's not good for a man my age to have this amount of stress but it's the life I have to deal with. Finding out that my only child dated a damn vampire who use to sneak into my house to watch her sleep! That still pisses me off till this day. If he was 100 whatever years old wouldn't he have manners not to sneak into little girls rooms? Guess not! It's funny how Bella's ex-boyfriend and bestfriend were mortal enemies though. It still amazes me how big those wolves are and thinking of the Cullen's I want to say that they freak me out wanting to go to high school over and over again but I can't. They are only doing what they can to blend in and as for Doctor Cullen, even though he wasn't technically a man he was still a good person. I see no fault in him trying to save people's lives, people who are suppose to be his main food source.
Now here I am parking in the driveway of Mrs. Elle Williams residence with Billy and Sam to unlock the question of How she got those items I received as my birthday gift and where she got it from? "Are you ready Chief?" I hear Sam say as we approach the front door, "Ready as I'll ever be Son." Knock knock knock… As the door slowly opens to reveal the person behind it all I can do is stare in complete and utter disbelief. "Good afternoon Chief, we've been expecting you, please come in." Still frozen in shock all I can think to myself is 'What the Hell!' this can't be happening. But it was and it is. "Joseff?" Taking in this man features there is no doubt in my mind that this is Joseff. What is he doing here? The last I heard he left Pennsylvania to move across the globe to Brazil. Is he Mrs. Williams husband? That can't be right can it?
Joseff POV Sunday - June 22nd
Gazing down at the old man in front of me I can't help but laugh, "Chief, stop gawking and get in here. Yes, it's me, you're not losing your shit or your mind okay. Come, let's go into the great room until you come to your senses." As I direct Charlie into the living quarters I turn to introduce myself to the two other guests. "Thank you for coming, I'm Joseff White." The taller buffer man who I can only presume is a shape-shifter shakes my offered hand first, "Sam Uley." The older gentleman holds out his hand but his face holds skepticism and recognition, "I'm Billy Black, Mr. White." Ah, that makes sense, he's the tribal Chief, one of the respected elders within the Quileute community who most likely heard of me when I hired a bunch of his men to build this house. "It's an honor Mr. Black, please come I'm sure Charlie get getting impatient over there." Walking towards the Chief I can see numerous questions running through his eyes, questions that me myself have no right to answer. "Did any of you want something to drink?" As one they respond with a 'No', and with that I sit on the sofa across from the father of my sister-in-law. "Alright Charlie, go ahead, I'm ready?"
All of a sudden his face goes blank of all emotion. "Joseff? What are you doing here? The last we talked you said you never wanted to return to the states again? What happened?" I just laugh knowing that this is only the beginning for all his onslaught questions. "Well Chief, I'm not sure if you know but I'm actually the designer of this house, I owned it until recently. And I'm guessing by the look on your face our little Belle never told you the reason behind it right." He confirms his unrecognition with a nod. "Oh our Belle, I guess she wanted to surprise you. You see Chief, we were all planning on moving here to Forks before she… um never mind that. Anyways, she wanted you to be apart of Carlie's life and New York was too far away for her liking. But now… now I've sold it. The family who lives here are very kind, good people. Mr. Williams and I are actually the last from our community after the great destruction that occurred on our ancestral lands. I figured Forks had a good tribe near by so the guy wouldn't feel too far from roots, people like us." Chief Black has a sorrowful look on his face and by the appearance on the taller one I think they figured out what tribe I came from. There's only one indian reservation that was burned down recently, everyone perished. It was so quick that no one saw it coming. The only reason why I wasn't included in the massacre was because of Belle. I was actually here in Forks putting the finishing touches on the house to make sure all the permits were passed.
"I'm so sorry Joseff, I mean after losing Jayson and Justin then your tribe it must have been disastrous! No wonder you wanted out of the states. You know that I am here if you ever need anything, you are still family Joseff." All I can do is smile at this guy. "I know Chief, I know but that is not the real reason you are here is it? You came to get an answer to a question did you not?" As if being reminded of his soul purpose for his visit he starts to stand as do I. Looking at the two gentlemen who accompanied him, I'm not sure if they'll appreciate this but it must be done. "Charlie, I can take you to see Mrs. Williams however, she is a very private person so I'm not sure if she would consent to your companions being present. Do you understand? This is her home and I can't make her uncomfortable in any way, she is after all my dearest friend." The wolf looks quite upset but at that moment I could care less, Belle needs this time with her father and no canine is gonna ruin that for her! "Agreed Joseff, please direct me to this young woman. I'm anxious to know what she knows." And with that I steer him against the passageway into the basement.
Charlie POV Sunday - June 22nd
Following Joseff he leads me to the bookshelf where he pulls on a book then all of a sudden the bookshelf slides open revealing a secret passageway! Who would've thought? Walking down the spiral stairs we reach what I can only assume is the basement. Looking around and knowing that the entire family was moving to Forks for me I can see a little bit of each personality. The semi library, bar, game room, but what throws me for a loop is the black glassed wall across from the fire place. I thought Paul said there was a room next to the bar? Hmm.
"Yo! Jojo! Did Cassie come back from her errands yet? Bellie should be almost done with her song session, I know she's kinda nervous about the Chief's visit." Gazing at the man who I can only guess was talking to Joseff, he obviously just came out of the pool and was currently wiping off his face with a towel not even noticing that someone else was in the room. "Um, no, she's not back yet." Sensing something was off by Jojo's voice the man finally looks up and straight at me. I know this man is all I can think, what the hell is going on? "Jayson? Is that you?" Then he looks away shaking his head, "No Chief, I'm not Jayson." Looking up at me again his face is engulfed with extreme sadness, "You still can't tell who is who can you Chief? I'm the Music Man." Ah, Justin, but I thought? "I'm so sorry Chief, we… I made you and Jayson a promise. I feel like a failure, a disappointment, I could've done better by you and him but…" Sighing to himself, I'm not sure what this young man is trying to say? "What are you talking about Son? I don't understand what you're implying?" Suddenly Justin is looking at the black glassed wall but my face is still instilled with confusion then he hits a black button to his right that swiftly changes the glass clear. Behind the glass is a young woman who seems to be engrossed in playing the guitar and what looks to be singing. She's totally absorbed into the song that I can't take my eyes off of her. Who is she? "That's Elle Williams Charlie." I hear Joseff confess, but what throws me for the loop is what Justin says after that. "That's Bella Sir." My head whips towards the amazon of a man in doubt. "I know you have questions, but only Bellie can answer that for you. Remember what she told you when she declared her concerns. I tried my best to keep her safe sir, she looks different but know this, that woman in there is your Bella." Then Justin proceeds to press a green button next to the black one on the wall speaking into it. "Hey babes, come out, you've got a very important visitor." Watching the woman in what I now notice is a studio she stops to put the guitar down then comes towards the set of doors that leads straight to us. Exiting the studio the first thing she does is look straight into my eyes. This girl looks nothing like my Bella. Her facial expression is consumed with worry, love, heartbreak, hope? "Bells?" I outstretch my arms only for her to run straight into them… She starts sobbing into my chest "Daddy, I missed you." Her voice... her voice is still the same! Yes, this is my Bella, my little girl. Gathering her into a deep embrace I direct ourselves to the couch. It's time for us to talk.
