Are you all ready for the madness of today? Thank you all for the overwhelming response to ch1...I promise that the angst is mild...but it is prevalent throughout the whole fic...

Six months later

BPOV

I lay in bed as Renee snatched open the curtains, which flooded the room with sunlight. It was a rare occurrence for Washington to have sun, so rare that I spent a moment marveling at it instead of yelling at my mother for the intrusion. Before I could snap out of the sunlight induced stupor my mother spoke to me.

"You have to get out of that bed. Your daughter is beginning to walk, Bella. This is not something that you want to miss out on." Her voice was snappy and unkind.

Those first three months after Charlie had died I had relied on Angela and Rosalie to help me get through the days. They brought groceries and helped plan the funeral. They tended to Kendall and made sure she was cared for.

They let me grieve and wallow in my despair. They didn't push me to talk or get out of bed. They made sure that I ate and showered.

Then when the school year ended for Renee and her kindgarten kids marched off to their happy summer, she packed up and moved in with me.

However, she had to return to Phoenix in a week and I was nowhere near ready to tend to myself, let alone tend to child.

"Bella, I've hired movers and they'll be here on Wednesday. So, today you will get out of that bed and start to pack."

"What?" I said as I slowly sat up on the side of the bed.

"You're moving to Phoenix. Don't even try to argue or I'll take that baby and she'll be mine. Understand?" Her eyes were on fire and I knew that her mind was made up, there was no use to argueI couldn't argue here.

Besides, I didn't have the strength to argue anymore.

A/n: So, it seems Bella's in a really dark place in her life...hang with me my lovelies...I promise...it's NOT all doom and gloom;)

Are you reading the other War fics? I am a few are already my favorites...I love it!

See in less than an hr...but, I'm at work so, if I get busy and fall behind, never fear, I'll catch up quickly;)
