I finished unpacking when I heard something pull up in the drive way. I looked out my window and saw a rusty red truck in our drive, Charlie was outside talking to two naturally tanned men, one was a teenager about a two years younger than me, the other was an old man in a wheelchair. I gasped as I recognized who they were, the Blacks, Billy and Jacob Black. Bella and I practically grew up with Jacob, when we moved, Jake and I kept in contact as Bells forgot about him. I sprinted down the stairs and outside, almost tripping the whole way.
"Billy! Jacob!" I shouted and hugged them,
Billy laughed and hugged me back,
"Well hello there Izzy" Billy chuckled.
I pulled away and smiled brightly,
"You sure have grown from a young mud covered five year old to beautiful young woman" he smiled at me,
I felt a blush crept up on my cheeks.
"Oh I see how it is, no hug for your best guy friend" Jacob said pretending to be offended.
I laughed and hugged him. I pulled away to see Bella standing awkwardly beside Charlie, I smiled and walked up to her putting a comforting arm around my younger sister. She smiled up at me gratefully,
"Bella, you remember Billy Black and his son Jacob?" Dad asked her,
"Uh yea" she hesitated,
"Obviously Izzy does" he snorted.
I playfully glared at him, Bells shook Billy's hand
"Hello Mr. Black" she greeted.
"Please call me Billy" he shook her hand,
"Jacob here was very excited to see you Bella" Billy motioned towards Jacob.
"Thanks dad" Jacob said sarcastically,
"Just keeping it real son" Billy said trying to be cool.
Charlie snorted,
"What's so funny Charlie?" Billy asked.
"You, we all know you aren't cool" he rolled his eyes,
"Oh yea?"
Billy wheeled himself over towards Charlie but he backed away into the road.
"Do they always do this?" Bella asked as we watched Charlie and Billy pretend to act cool and chase each other.
"Yeah, it gets worse with old age" Jake said as he walked closer,
"Hi, I'm Jacob, we used to make mud pies together" he said lamely.
"Lame" I snickered,
Jake elbowed me in the ribs, Bella gave him a small shy smile,
"Yea, yea I remember" she said.
Dad and Billy came back over to us laughing.
"So Bella and Izzy, we do you think?" he asked, motioning over to the old red truck.
"What? No way" Bella gasped in disbelief.
"Yea, I just bought it off Billy here, but you two will have to share" Charlie said sternly,
Bella ran a pale hand through her brown hair.
"This is so cool" she said,
"Here, I'll show you how it works" Jacob offered as he walked with Bella over to the car,
She opened the driver's side and it hit Jacob.
"Opps, I'm so sorry" she gasped,
I laughed as I followed her,
"It's alright" Jake said and got in the passenger side.
Jacob explained how it worked and when he finished, Bella asked him if he had a ride to school.
"Oh, I go to school on reservation" he said, Bella's shoulders slumped.
"Oh, it would have been nice to know one person besides Izzy" she mumbled,
Jacob looked at her sadly.
