Chapter Nineteen

C.P.O.V

Over the next few days I didn't get back to La Push, Jane was around the entire time as she wasn't starting work for another week. Jane was busy organising our move to the new house, she had brought me to it two days after the phone call to Brian. It was unsurprisingly a modern house in a gated community, which was somewhat oddly situated in the countryside, I had never seen this before but had accepted it immediately as exactly to Jane's tastes. The house was two storey with an attic conversion, it had four bedrooms each one en-suite, there was a sitting room, a kitchen and scullery and importantly for my mother there was a dining room. Throughout the house there was a theme, the theme being white, Jane had decided that she wanted to go for a more minimalist approach this time, which wasn't that much different to the house in London I thought but had immediately dropped upon seeing the scowl my mother wore at my mention it.

I hadn't expected much from the house and as wasn't disappointed or surprised by it, the only thing about it that I truly loved was my room. Jane had told me which room was hers and had proceeded to announce to me that I could have any of which I so choose, she really didn't care where I slept as long as it was inside the house she wouldn't have the neighbours thinking I was odder than I already looked. I thought that her allowing me the room of my choice was probably her weird way of letting me know that she was if only slightly glad that I was around. Upon inspecting each room apart from my mothers, each one had a similar feel to it, four walls big spacious large windows, and large wardrobes. The room that I had left until last was the attic conversion and it was definitely a case of it being saving the best for last.

The room was very spacious, spanning almost an entire floor on its own, a bathroom was the only thing that stopped the room from taking up an entire floor. Instead of the large windows that were in the other rooms there were dormer windows in the ceiling, as well as the window the wall at the end of the room was covered entirely in glass, it couldn't be called a window because it led out onto a balcony. The north side of the house from my room down to the dining room was covered in glass, impractical but quite nice I thought, surprised at myself, usually I hated glass, it being a reminder of my own old upbringing in London. My room had a lot of wood in it which reminded me distinctly of Emily's house, it was warm and bright and perfect for me. Jane had surprised me when she had announced that I could have free reign of the room, when I had asked her if she minded what I decorated it like, she had announced that she didn't intend on going up there so I could. I had beamed at her when she said this, Jane had smirked at me slightly at this point, it reminded me a little of Emily's smile.

I had been initially delighted at the thought of the room and being able to decorate it to my liking, unlike Hannah I doubted that my room would be particularly interesting, but I could try. The only setback in my decorating plans was a lack of funds, when I had said to Jane that I didn't have enough money to decorate the room she had merely shrugged at me and said to ask my father for money. As annoying as this was, I didn't actually have to ask my father for the money, he had already sent me a cheque for one thousand pounds, he had later rang me to let me know that it was for school fees and the like; but since my mother had already paid them she had said to use it myself. Jane had been going to visit a furniture store in Seattle and I had gone along with her, whilst there I managed to pick out a bed, desk and chair for my room; my room already had a large pine dresser so I didn't need a wardrobe. My bed was a black iron framed bed, Jane had joked that it looked like one of the beds in the orphanage in the film Annie, I had merely scowled in response. The desk was similar to Hannah's desk, it was a heavy second hand desk that was covered in knots and the varnish was slightly worn on it, there were drawers on the left and shelves on the right. I had fallen in love with it as soon as I had seen it, Jane hadn't been too impressed but had let me to it. Finally my chair was retro high backed luminous red chair, it was plastic but had cushion lining where you sat, there was also arm rests on it that were set wide apart giving me plenty of room, the chair was a swivel chair meaning that I could move it around my room easily. The furniture was being delivered in a few days meaning I had to sleep in one of the spare rooms for now, but I didn't mind, I couldn't wait to have them all in their. I knew that it would be quite sparse but I figured that I could add things as time went on and smiled to myself whenever I thought about staying here.

It didn't take long for us to settle into the house, Jane had decided to buy entirely new furnishings for the house and since the house was already structurally prepared there was nothing left for Jane or I to do. Jane had brought me to see my new school, it was a school called Oak Falls Academy, it was a rather imposing looking building. It was an impressive school, boasting two swimming pools, a tennis court, basketball court, a gym amongst other things. I wasn't too particularly interested in the sports facilities myself, my asthma restricting all physical activities. Despite it's imposing air, I thought that I would like the school, the library was modern and well stocked, and the computer lab was up to date. These were my two sanctuaries when I was at school spending the majority of my time in both places in an attempt to hide myself away from the rest of the world.

Having seen the school I had wondered silently to myself how I was supposed to get too and from the actual school itself when it started. It was the end of July and I wasn't starting until September so I didn't worry about it too much right then, but I couldn't imagine this school having a bus service from near my house. My question was answered later that day for me, when Jane who had been watching the TV came into the kitchen to find me listening to the radio and writing at the table, at first I didn't pay much attention to her but she coughed expectantly causing me to look up at her curiously.

"Claire…I've been thinking about you going to school…and how you were going to get back and forth.." Jane began looking at me expectantly, "Well since your sixteen and legally speaking you can drive if you want I was thinking that it would be best you learned…I can't really wait around every morning for you…" Jane trailed off seemingly thinking about what she was about to say, but from her expression it didn't seem particularly favourable to her. After a few moments she spoke again, but luckily for me the news was good, "Well here's the thing, people learn to drive in high school here and well since most people do this there isn't a huge market for driving instructors so the nearest one is in Seattle and I can't bring you there with work…" Jane paused for a breath before continuing again, "I asked your uncle Sam if he would teach you and he said that he would so tomorrow before work I'll drop you over there and he'll bring you home alright?". Jane asked, her expression fierce almost as though she were willing me to challenge her decision. I blinked at her in surprise afraid to say anything in case she would change her mind, and my sudden opportunity to visit La Push more often, would be taken away. Instead I nodded non-commitally at Jane, something that usually irritated her but didn't provoke her in this instance. "Right well...be up for about six Sam's expecting you at about seven thirty alright!" exclaimed before leaving quickly, not bothering to wait for an answer.

I sat at the table for a few minutes more thinking about this sudden progression, it seemed to me that Jane had done this out of necessity as opposed to actually wanting me to get to know my family. However I was loathe to say anything that would jeopardize this unexpected surprise, I decided then that it would probably be best to go to bed right away it was late and I knew that it would take me too long to get up as always in the morning.

Authors Note: Well I'm guessing that since you have read to the end that you will have guessed what I was talking about in regards to the important thing that I didn't really understand!! So heres the thing the driving lessons will be important to the story...but I have no idea how things work in relation to drivers-ed and the rest of it only having vaguely heard in passing from my cousins in California so your just going to have to put up with my ignorance I do apologise:(...But hopefully it won't be too bad... :)
