Chapter 13
I had arrived in Phoenix and was now traveling to my old house. I didn't like it, the heat the sun. I had grown used to the green grass of Forks and the rain. The damp smell of the wood and grass of the forest. I had not seen one green thing here apart from a short pile of grass which was being mown by the male gardener.
"O Bella welcome home sweetheart" my mom greeted me, I was a little uncomfortable but non the less I greeted her back
"How are you" I asked while walking in
"Fine, how was your trip?"
"It was good, I actually cam here to talk to you about something" I wanted to get this out of the way
"Of course, take a seat"
Why was she acting all business like? That was odd for Renee.
"Well, I wanted to ask you some things about my past"
"Like what" she chuckled
I breathed in and out "Did something happen to me when I was younger, when I was 16?"
I saw Renee face go white but then she composed herself, she knew something and didn't want to tell me
"No" she answered
"Renee I know you lying about something, I can always tell when you lie"
"Hello I'm home" I mans voice echoed
"Phil" Renee jumped up and hugged Phil
"Hey Bella, you alright" he asked
"Fine but mom we need to…"
"O honey I'm putting dinner on" she walked into the kitchen
I sighed "I'm going out" I shouted, not bothering to hear a reply
I walked down to the park. I think this is wear the boy was pushing me back and forth
"Bella?" I turned to see Angela's cousin
"O hey...em"
"Matthew"
"Hey Matthew, what are you doing here"
"I work at the Café there" he pointed towards the café shop just over the road "I was on my break when I thought you looked familiar, you dropped me and Ange off at the airport thanks for that"
"Not a problem" I replied
"Well em what are you doing here?" he asked rubbing the back of his head
"O I came here to see my mom"
"O good, well I was just wondering if you wanted to hang out now I mean I've finished"
"I would like that"
"Cool, just let me put this in" he indicated towards the apron which hung around his waist. I nodded and said I would wait here.
Me and Matthew spent the day together just talking and laughing. We went to the spring where they held a fountain. I was walking along the brick out line when Matthew pushed me in getting me all wet. He laughed and I grabbed him and pulled him in, getting his face right in there I got up and ran. I heard him behind me and I ran deeper into the park.
"Bella get here now" he said while laughing.
Eventually he caught up with me and threw me over his shoulder
"No let me go" I laughed hitting his back. I saw people look at us, some in an odd way and some smiling.
Then the night came. Matthew had given me his jacket because the air was getting colder.
"Thanks for today Matthew, I really enjoyed it"
"It's fine" we were at my door and I shrugged off his coat and gave it back
"Thanks" he said smiling
"Well I better get in and…" I was cut off by Matthews lips, as I was about to protest someone opened the door. Matthew broke away from me and we both saw Renee
"Who's this Bella?"
"Em, this is Matthew Angela's cousin"
"Hello Matthew" Renee said politely
"Hello Miss Swan"
"Please call me Renee Miss Dwyer makes me feel old" she chuckled
"Renee, well goodnight Bella" Matthew walked away and I was in utter shock at what he just did.
Matthew had just kissed me and I did nothing about it. What the hell was I going to tell Edward?
