BPOV
I sighed as I walked up the stairs to my bedroom, why can't I get him out of my head? I asked myself. I had never fallen for a guy before, never had a crush, heck I had turned down dozens of boys claiming that we were "meant for each other" I grimaced at the thought. But strangely, I wasn't bothered by the thought of me with Edward…I actually liked the thought.
I groaned slightly as I sank down onto my bed, I could feel my rib throbbing slightly. I settled into my pillows to think, it was easy to think in my room; surrounded by all of my favorite things. There were pictures of me playing soccer all over my door, and my horse; I teared up at that thought. I owned an appaloosa gelding back home, but seeing as there were no stables in Forks I had to leave him at home. Luckily I found a little girl to lease him too so while I lived here she would be sending me monthly payments and she took care him; in return she was able to ride him when ever she wanted. I picked up the portrait of him that was on my end table and traced the outline of his head as a few tears slid down my cheeks. I flipped through a few photos of my dog Jackson too, I wanted to bring him with me when I moved in with Charlie but Renee insisted that she kept him as a guard dog.
It made sense…Jackson was a ninety-five lab mix…but I missed him. Especially right now, I could just picture him curled up on my bed with me, comforting me like he used too. I felt so alone…I wanted Edward. I barely knew the man…strange, he's seventeen but he's more of a man than any boy I've ever met. I was pulled out of my train of thought when I heard Charlie get home.
"Dad!" I called; I heard his footsteps on the stairs momentarily. He walked through my door with a concerned look on his face. "Bella why are you home early? And where's your truck?" I smiled in response. "For one thanks for the snow chains on my tires, I wish all the parents in forks had been so nice, when I got to school this morning I almost got squished by a van!" I said with fake cheerfulness. "Then when I got out of the way I got thrown to the ground and fractured a rub! Great huh!" I laughed when I saw my dad's expression.
"Oh God! Are you ok? What a stupid question of coarse you're not!" "Dad! Calm down! I'm fine! It doesn't hurt that bad!" I yelled at him. "Then…why are you crying?" He asked. "Oh…" I hesitated. "I miss my babies." I replied. He gave me a knowing smile, he had tried to convince Renee to let Jackson come with me but she had legal custody of him and she refused.
"I'm sorry hun…she's just so unreasonable, she told me that the only way she would let you have him was if we bought him from her so she could get another dog…" I nodded my head. "I know dad, I'm saving up the money from Spike's lease…but with my car insurance, cell phone, and all my other bills to pay its taking me a while." I replied. "I wan to get some sleep, do you mind ordering out tonight?" I asked.
"Of coarse not Bells! Get some sleep; I'll talk to you tomorrow." I pulled myself up and changed into my pajamas before climbing into bed. Once again my thought were full of Edward, he was so fascinating! As I was drifting off to sleep I almost felt like he was here with me. That was the first night I dreamt of Edward Cullen.
I know its short but the next chapter will be longer. This was kind of filler because if you haven't guessed yet Bella's "Babies" will come into the story later on! Next chapter should be out by tomorrow!
