Those Magical Moments
Twilight Fanfiction
Chapter 1: It All Started When…
Jacob is my best friend ever since I was little, when I moved to La Push with my mommy a couple years ago, when I was 6 and now I'm 8, he helps me with all the bullies that pick on me, and he helps me with my homework even when he has his own to work on. My mommy lets him sleep over too! But only on weekends, he usually sleeps on the couch which is too small for him, and his feet hangover the couch.
Well I guess the reason that I'm thinking about this is because my teacher told us to draw a picture of us and our best friends doing something and explaining what we're doing. I drew a picture of us in a space shuttle because we pretend we're astronauts a lot and I tried my best at drawing myself in with my curly brown hair and my rectangular purple glasses. But I drew myself with blue eyes instead of brown eyes, I like blue eyes more, I wish I had blue eyes, my mommy and big brother have blue eyes why can't I?
"Alli I like your brown eyes why did you draw blue?" Jacob asked as he was looking at my drawing.
"Blue eyes are pretty, brown eyes aren't special..." I pouted slightly and continued drawing.
"They are special just like you." He said half laughing and smiling his goofy old smile and went back to his work I think he said it was ge-ge-geom-geometry.. I'm not quite sure what that is but it sounds hard. When I finished my drawing I put it in my pink backpack with the pretty sparkly butterflies on it and set my backpack on the hook so I would remember it in the morning. I sat on the window and looked out and watched the wind sway the trees and the birds drift in the pretty blue sky. And then I saw a bunch of guys that kinda looked like Jacob but not really coming closer to my house.
"Jacob there's a bunch of guys out there." I said a bit confused and he stopped working.
"Stay here Alli-bear okay?" He said and got up from his seat and walked outside. I just sat at the window watching. I felt a sudden yank of my hair and I turned around to see my 10 year old brother Michael sticking his tongue out at me. I started running outside and tugged on Jacob's pants.
"Jacob! Mikey pulled my hair and it really hurts!" I said with tears welling up in my eyes.
"Hold up one second Alli-bear I'll talk to him." He said and tried to shuttle me back inside but I wanted to stay outside with his friends. And then one of them started laughing and I couldn't figure out why.
"This is the famous 'Alli-bear' why how cute are you?" the guy who was laughing and crouched over and messed with my hair.
"Come on Paul leave her alone..." Jacob said and sighed a little.
"Only Jacob calls me Alli-bear not even my mommy calls me that!" I said getting a little angry at him.
"Well why don't you go tell your mommy?" He said still crouched over in a nasty tone.
"WHY DON'T YOU GO TELL YOUR MOMMY?!" I said and kicked him where Jacob told me to kick a boy if they were being mean to me. Jacob picked me up and tried not to laugh but failed.
"I'll see you guys later okay?" he said and started walking me back to the house and closed the door behind us. I had my arms wrapped around his neck and my legs around his waist. He started to unwrap me from him and set me down on the ground. I sat on the couch and turned the TV on to cartoons waiting for mommy to come home from work because dinner always came after that. After a while it got boring waiting for Jacob to finish his homework. So I braided my dolls hair to keep me busy and just started talking to Jacob absentmindedly.
"Are there any boys you like in your class?" Jacob asked a little sadly which didn't make sense.
"No they're all gross except for this boy named Danny, he's nice and he don't eat worms." I said smiling and brushing my doll's hair.
"It's doesn't Alli, 'he's nice and he doesn't eat worms' but other than that he sounds nice." Jacob said, I could practically hear the smile on his face.
"Right he doesn't eat worms." I said smiling and heard my mommy's car drive up in the driveway and jumped up and ran out the door and waited for her to get out of the car. She scooped me up in her arms and carried me to the house.
"Jacob could you go get the groceries out of my car please" Mommy asked him and sat me down at the table and put her coat on the hook along with her car keys. He nodded and put his homework in his backpack and got up walking outside to the car.
I turned the TV on the music station and started attempting to those pretty ballet moves and couldn't turn the right way but after Jacob finished bringing the groceries he held my hand and started turning me the right way. I closed my eyes and pretended I was on stage in front of everyone in the world dancing as a professional ballerina I could just see myself in those big tutus and my feet wrapped up in those ribbons and my hair done up. I looked so pretty in my dreams. But my rude awakenings to reality always dragged me right back to the ground and out of space.
I sat down at the dinner table as my mom served us spaghetti and Jacob got me my plate. I put the fork in my left and started eating and my mommy started to talk to Jacob about his grades apparently he's doing really well in high school. I don't really pay attention to numbers they confuse me a lot. After dinner my mommy made me get ready for bed and after Jacob tucked me in he had to leave to go home which made me a little sad I wish he could sleep over every night, I liked it when he sang me to sleep on the weekends. He had a pretty voice, prettier than mine is.
When I woke up I ran out to get my breakfast to notice that Jacob wasn't there. I was confused didn't he like me no more? I started eating breakfast waiting for him.
"Jacob had to go to school early and he'll be there when you get there Alli." She said as she smiled sweetly at me and pulled out a pink shirt with overalls that had purple and yellow flowers on the pockets and on the buttons. I grabbed a pair of my yellow socks to wear with them, and put the outfit on and brushed my teeth and brushed all the knots out of my hair and was finished getting ready. My mommy drove me to the school that me and Jacob shared.
Just like mommy said Jacob was waiting at the car drop off place for me. He took my book bag and carried it for me and held my hand and walked me to class. We waited by my teacher's door and we're just rambling on about what I learn in class, apparently I'm really smart for my age. But not nearly as smart as Jacob is, he's so smart and he knows what to do all the time no matter what. Then the bell rang which means class is starting soon.
"See you later champ." Jacob said messing with my hair and started to walk to his class on the other side of school where the big kids go. The teacher opened the door and let us in the class and I sat in the desk with my name on it 'Allison Channing' in orange because my favorite colour is orange. It's always been my favorite colour. The teacher asked me to go up front and show everyone my drawing I drew of me and my best friend, so I did and I told the teacher what I was doing with him.
"This is me with my best friend Jacob… He's been my best friend since I was 6 when I moved here… and now I'm 8 and he's still my best friend, we like to dance and sing, and he twirls me around when I can't dance the right way and… well he's really nice.." I said smiling and holding up the picture.
"He's like a second big brother.." I added on looking down to the floor smiling.
