Eventually I must have fallen asleep, though I don't remember falling asleep. I woke up the next morning to the sound of laughter downstairs. I rubbed the sleep out of my eyes before I dragged myself to the bathroom to freshen up.
I walked down the stairs and was greeted by a few hellos and a few mumbles from the wolves that had their mouths full. It was kind of disgusting.
"Hey guys" I replied before fixing myself some breakfast. I sat down and leaned back again the chair. I was exhausted. I didn't do much last night.
"So Brian… did you sleep well last night?" Charlie asked.
"Yes sir. The bed was quite comfortable. I didn't realise I had fallen asleep" I grinned.
"I know that feeling son. So Bells says you are house hunting today"
"Yes sir that's correct"
"Well good luck with that. I'm sure you'll find the right house" he nodded at me before turning back to his newspaper.
"So Brian. You ready to head out?" Bella smiled while grabbing her keys.
"Sure I'm ready. See you guys later" I shouted over my shoulder while dragging Bella to her truck. I was so eager to look for a nice house.
We got to Forks quite quickly and we pulled up to Forks Estate Agency. What a cliché. It was a very small agency. Didn't look very warm from the outside. Kinda gave me the heebie jeebies.
There was a small office inside as we walked in. We knocked on the door and waited. There was a young male that opened the door holding a clipboard. There was something about him I didn't like, but I didn't know what it was.
"What can I do for you both" he grunted with a small smile. Yes very friendly he is.
"We would like to have a look around the houses in Forks. I would like to buy a house as soon as possible" I replied.
"Well you're in luck. We have a couple of houses on the market for sale. Just newly on the market actually" he said before he grabbed a stack of files and guided us towards the houses.
We had been round a few of the houses but none of them were up to my standard. They were either too small or looked too old for my liking. I wanted a big house; I know I'm going to settle down in Forks.
We got to the final house and I loved it already. I instantly felt at home, which is weird but never mind.
"I'll take it" I said turning round to face the realtor. I still didn't know his name but it didn't matter.
"But… sir don't you want to look inside?"
"Nope I'll take it. It looks great" I beamed. I looked at Bella and she had a weird expression on her face. "Bella? What's wrong?"
"Oh nothing. By the way, after you have finished all the documentary I'll pass you the keys" she said pulling out a set of keys. I looked at her confused.
"What keys Bella?"
"The keys for the house silly. This was our house; we put it up for sale when we got the house down at La Push. There's furniture still there, so you should be set to go" she smiled. I grinned at her before I filled out the details.
After all the details were filled in, I felt something hard hit my head.
"Ow!" I looked around and saw a set of keys on the floor. I looked up and glared at Bella. She was too busy holding her stomach laughing hard. I'll show you.
I walked up to her and starting tickling her, she squealed and tried to wriggle away. She started laughing harder and I stopped when a scent hit my nose. It was the same scent as last night. I looked around and tensed.
"What's that god damn smell? Is that a leech? Should we call the pack?" I said nudging Bella.
"It's fine Brian. There are three vampires around here. There aint no danger in Forks" she replied. I nodded. I knew it wasn't true, but no one believed me. I'll have to keep my eyes open. I just hope I'm wrong.
"Let's go car shopping. You need to buy a ride" she grinned pulling me towards her truck. I smiled at her eagerness.
We found this small car dealership and they had trucks and sports cars. I saw an Aston Martin and I drooled. I've always wanted one of them! I ran for one of the Aston Martin cars. Well I was kind of torn between the Aston Martin DBS and the Aston Martin Vanquish. Ah decisions decisions decisions.
But then again I wanted another ride for work. It's not like I can't afford it. If I drive an Aston Martin to work, it might get stolen or something. Na uh. Not to an Aston Martin. I was going to get an Aston Martin DBS in black.
I looked around and had a look at the SUVs they had. My eyes scanned the SUVs; I looked all the way round until my eyes spotted a nice SUV. I looked away and did a double take.
Well that was easy, I was going to get that truck! It was a Cadillac Escalade EXT. It was going to be black, the blue didn't look very appealing, although blue is my favourite colour. Bella grinned when she saw it. I guess we both have the same taste in cars then.
We walked inside and got the paperwork all signed. I came out with a wide grin with my two sets of keys for both cars in my hand. Yeah you heard me, both cars! I told you I was going to buy both.
They were going to send my truck over in a few days; the Aston Martin was ready to go. I was so excited to take the baby for a test ride.
"I bet you are jealous Bella that I've got an Aston Martin and you don't" I grinned winking at her.
"Shh don't rub it in Brian" she pouted. I laughed to myself. I love her child-like behaviour.
"Sorry Bella" I said but I wasn't really sorry. I loved it.
I walked up to the car and stroked the side of the car in awe.
"Brian. Seriously? You're stroking a car? It's just a car"
"Bella are you serious? It's an Aston Martin for Christ sake. It's a beauty! Aston Martin cars are way better than a Ferrari. Though I do love a Ferrari F430 Spider in red. Now that is another beauty on my list that I've always wanted" I grinned.
"Hmm well I seem to think Ferrari F430 Spider is a decent car. But I love Porsche more. I love the Porsche Boxster Spyder in white. I want one of those" she smiled with a glazed look. I stared at her with shock. Holy shit. She likes cars?
"Whoaw… Bella you like cars? Like seriously?"
"Well yeah. I've always loved cars. I love watching car races. I mean I even watch motorsport. Like the competition that the British have. It's called Formula One. I follow that, I love it! My dad doesn't like it. He says it's quite boring going round and round in circles. But I don't care, I watch it anyways" she grinned.
"Please tell me Angela likes cars and stuff like that" I pleaded.
"Well… she knows a few things I think. I don't really know. You'll have to find out yourself won't you" she winked.
I just grinned before I jumped into my car. I got comfortable in the driver's seat, running my hands over the steering wheel.
It felt so smooth, I couldn't stop grinning. I ran my hands over the material of the car. I was in love with this car already.
Bella set off to La Push and I followed her. The weather was nice so I had the windows down and let the wind sweep through my hair. It felt so refreshing.
We drove down a straight road; I was getting a bit impatient with Bella driving in her slow truck in front of me. I checked to see if the coast was clear and then I overtook her.
I looked to the left and grinned at her cheekily before I passed her. She looked at me and huffed in annoyance. I just chuckled before I sped off to La Push. I was glad I could remember the path to La Push.
Obviously I had reached her house first, the pack was there. I stopped outside her house, pulled up the handbrake and revved the engine.
The pack came flowing out of the house; the guys were staring at my car in awe. I just grinned, but they didn't look at who owned the car yet. The guys were memorized by the car, I'm not surprised. It's a beauty! I think I've already mentioned that but never mind.
I stepped out the car and the guys let out wolf whistles. I just leaned against my baby folding my arms and leaned against it.
"Holy shit man. Sweet ride" Quil grinned. "Can I touch it?" he looked at me hopefully. I just nodded. He grinned happily and touched it lightly as if he was going to ruin the paint job of the car from a little touch.
Jacob and Embry were looking at me hopefully. I knew they wanted to take a closer look at my baby. I just nodded. They jumped up happily. Jacob popped the hood and looked inside with a grin on his face. Embry was staring at the tyres, they were quite fancy tyres.
Then we heard Bella's old truck pull up. I just looked at her grinning. She glared at me before she walked over to Paul and rested her head on his chest while wrapping her arms around his waist.
He looked at me raising an eyebrow, I just shrugged still grinning. He shrugged his shoulders and looked down at her.
"So how was your day?" he smiled.
"Well it was fine. Sort of. Brian here is the new owner of our old house. We went car shopping afterwards, he bought two cars. He bought that little beauty there and a Cadillac truck in black for work. You know, in case someone steals his little baby. But now both cars are his babies. You know he was surprised that I knew some car models. Like the Ferrari F430 Spider, not that it's my favourite car or anything. Oh and then on the way home, he decided to take over and speed off. Show off" she smiled at him but glared at me when she muttered 'show off'. I just laughed at her.
"Swan. I didn't know you liked a few car models. I don't like how he knew this fact before I did" he pouted.
"Sorry man" I smiled at him apologetically.
"Whatever pup" he said bumping his fist against my shoulder playfully.
"Damn Pratt. How did you afford something beautiful like this?" Embry asked.
"Well I have my ways. I'm not exactly poor. I saved up money when I was in Phoenix. I was there for a while. I had a few jobs at one point and worked my ass off for the money. Plus my boss helped me out a little. Just some money in case I need it you know" I said shrugging.
"Wow that sounds mental man" Quil replied.
"Yeah just a bit, but I needed money and stuff. Didn't have much of a choice but to take on a few jobs"
"What else is new today?" Paul asked me.
"Well when we were in Forks, I smelt a leech scent again. It was the same one from last night" I said folding my arms again.
"I'm sure it's just those leeches that Swan is friends with. They are quite friendly. They mean no harm, don't get worked up about it pup" he replied.
I still wasn't buying it. Then I heard a musical laugh. It was musical, yet evil. I think it was that leech that I tried to chase last night.
"Harmless huh. With an evil laugh like that. Still think it's them?"
A/N: Sorry it's a bit short. But here we go. Hope you like! The cars are on my profile!
