Perfect Life
Bella POV
I was always a clumsy, shy kid growing up. I did what I was told and obeyed my parents. I was their perfect miracle. You see my mother, Renee had a complication giving birth to me. I was born 2 months earlier than I should of have. I was a tiny baby and very fragile. My lungs weren't quite developed as the doctors would had liked. They had kept me in the hospital for weeks instead of days. When I came home my parents took care of me like I was a small delicate flower, but I still had fun growing up.
I still remember how I met my high school sweetheart, Jacob Black. I was 5 years old, playing in the sandbox at the park, while my parents watched from the bench. I saw a couple, the same age as my parents sit next to them and start a conversation. I thought nothing of it and continue making sand castles, until I saw a shadow hovering over me. A boy with short black hair, dark brown eyes was looking down at me.
"Do you want to play with my toy motorcycle?" the boy asked shyly looking down at his shoes. He had a light blush on his dark skin cheeks and I didn't see why he would have had one.
"Sure, I'm Bella, what's your name?" I asked standing up and dusting off my blue dress and making more room for him in the sandbox.
"I'm Jacob, it's nice to meet you." We had a blast throughout the day. He became my new best friend that day. He introduced me to his parents that were apparently the couple that were having a conversation with my parents. Jacobs parents and mine soon became friends. My dad, Charlie and his dad, Billy began a bond over fishing. Which left my mom and Jacob's mom to get together and talk about gossip.
Jacob and I spent a lot of time together. We soon grew closer and closer as the years progressed. We did everything together and went through our awkward teen phases together.
I was there for him when his mother died in a car accident and Billy couldn't walk anymore. It was such a sad time for the Black family. Billy and Jacob were the only ones left. His mother's death left such a huge effect on Jacob. He felt such a strong woe. He wasn't himself for such a long time, but he slowly got himself back together when he realized that his mother wouldn't want him feeling that way.
We then started dating as freshmen. Jacob soon became the all-American quarterback football player that all the girls wanted, but couldn't have him because he was mine. I became the most popular girl in school without all the bitchyness. I had perfect grades, I was nice to even I knew and I had the best boyfriend I ever wanted.
UW was the college Jacob and I chose to go to, we moved to Seattle straight out of high school. I graduated with a bachelors degree and became a book editor for the newly authors. Jacob thought that college life was not for him and dropped out to become a mechanic. He ran a fairly small business close to our apartment.
Everything was great. I was close to getting a promotion at work and life with Jacob couldn't get any better. Life was absolutely perfect.
