CHAPTER ONE

"Everyone! I would like to make a toast!"

Charlie yelled loudly over the talking people at this stupid dinner. I took a sip of my water, trying not to groan and roll my eyes "A toast to my beautiful daughter and her fiancé Jacob Black! For it was love at first sight with these two.." rolling my eyes I stood up excusing myself and making my way out the back door and away from all the lies. This was a set up. it was more like money Vs. happiness. I guess money won in this case. You see, Jacob and his family are rich. And my father , let's just say he's hungry for more money.

We are a working class family.

Jacob was born with a golden spoon in his mouth.

Boston was beautiful, cold but beautiful. the snow covered the ground as I took little steps, marking the snow with my small footsteps. I loved the snow, it was somehow peaceful and had a weird beauty to it. smiling I sat down on one of the benches and took out a cigarette before anyone decided to look for me. "fucking shit" I mumbled as I realized I didn't take my purse. "Here" a velvet voice said "seems like you could use this" I looked up to a pair of topaz eyes, beautiful. so beautiful I could get lost in his eyes. His hair made me smile, it was a weird bronze hair color and in a few places it stuck up. He light up my cigarette and got himself one and sat next to me, his long legs stretching in front of him. "you have, really fucking crazy hair" I said as I blew out my smoke and laughed. He chuckled and blew out his smoke.

"you know, the first thing someone says when a stranger lights up their cigarette is thank you" he smirked and took another drag "But yes, my hair is fucking crazy" he was serious, his lips started twitching a bit and we both busted out laughing. "My name's Bella" I said as I stuck my hand out "Edward" was all he said. He held my hand in his, strong and soft. Warm and gentle. I felt a jolt of spark and jumped a little and glanced at him. His eyes were narrowed a bit but before I could even ask him why he was looking at me like that, he let go of my hand.

I suddenly felt empty.

"So, you aren't from around here are you?" I asked as I finished my cigarette. He shook his head and smiled at me "I'm from Forks" smiling I chuckled a bit "Me too! I'm here on vacation" Lie "My family came to see some of their old friends. My dads best friends son is getting married" to me, even if I don't love that son of a bitch. We talked for a bit about nothing really until alice came outside mumbling under her breath. "Seriously Bella I don't see how you are going to marry that.." she stopped as she noticed edward sitting next to me. "uh sorry I didn't know you had company. But everyone is asking for you, let's go back in" she glanced at edward and smiled "Hi! I'm alice! I just know we are going to be the best of friends!" he laughed and introduced himself.

"Well edward I have to go now, I don't want anyone calling the cops cause they think I went missing" he chuckled at my sad thing of a joke when in reality I was serious. "we will meet again, Bella" he took my hand and gave it a kiss. I swooned. "yeah.." I whispered breathlessly as he winked at me and bowed his head at alice and walked away from us. I watched him as he continued to walk until I couldn't see him anymore. "wow! What a damn fine piece of ass!" alice said as she fanned herself and whistled "yeah I know what you mean" we both walked in, but I couldn't help but look back and see if I would see him again.

He was gone. And I knew it too.

I threw myself onto my bed at the hotel and groaned into my pillow. Charlie had gone out for a few drinks with Billy, which left me and my mom in the room alone. "Bella hunny? Everything alright?" she asked as she sat down next to me in the bed and rubbed my back. taking deep calming breaths so I wouldn't cry I looked at her and frowned "How can you allow this to happen? How can I marry someone I don't even love?" she stared at me, her hand stilled on my back "how do you expect me to be happy if I cant marry someone I love? What if true love comes around and I miss that opportunity because I'm stuck marrying someone else?" a tear fell and I brushed it away before my mom could. "Bella hunny, you know I can't stop this. I wish I could. Your father and Billy already have an agreement." I turned away from her and faced the wall, looking out the window into the night sky in downtown boston.

"I tell you one thing" she whispered. Her eyes were focused on something else "hold it off as long as you can. When true love comes, don't let it slip away" she kissed my head and turned off the light and sighed as she walked towards the bathroom.

Before she even closed the door I could have sworn I heard her whisper

"..Don't let it slip away like I did.."

I feel as though this chapter sucked big time. idk I feel like it could have been way better but no matter how many fucking times ii wrote it , it came out to this.

Hopefully I didn't disappoint anyone with this chapter and if I did you can review and tell me I suck and to make the next one better or else. And if you have any suggestions on what places edward and Bella should meet before she heads back home, let me know!

Well…I rambled on enough I think? Also I got a kindle! My mom got it for me today…sucks I don't have wifi and don't know how to use it LOL anyone remember their first love? I do…and I let it slip away for the wrong guy..i still remember him tho, ugh I miss him even tho hes married now and has a son :/
