CHAPTER 4
BYE MISS YOU (BPOV)
"Bella baby get up…." I was awake but I don't want to start now. "Bella. You know you can stay here if you don't want to go." I heard my mom's voice very close. I don't want to go but I have to. My mom has her own life to enjoy. I don't want to be a burden in her newly married life. I threw my sheet away and looked up at her with a smile.
"Morning mom". I told her and hugged. "Good morning sweet heart. Now get ready soon. I have made your breakfast and Sam is waiting in the living room with another young man. It is getting late for your flight so you better hurry." My mom's voice was bright. She is trying to put a cheery atmosphere so I acted along. "sure mom. Will be there in few minutes."
When I took all my things, I saw my mom looking at me with sad eyes. " you know you can stay here Bella." I have had this talk with her a lot since I told her I want to spend my time with my dad and move to Forks.
"I am moving mom" that is all I could manage. I am a terrible liar. But I am stubborn too. I was ready in few minutes and went to kitchen to find my mom, my step dad Phil, Sam and a new boy who was built very much like Sam. Sam is moving to Forks too. When I told him about my decision he told me he always wanted to move to a calm place so where better?
"Good morning everyone."
"Good morning Bella" Phil was not much happy about my decision but he is too cheerful typr to be sober.
"Hi Bella. Ready to move?" Sam asked me kindly. "of course. How about you?"
"Yes! By the way meet Jocob my cousin. Jocob, Bella"
"Hi Bells" he boomed and shook my hand energetically. He is good looking. He was kind of childish but his eyes held wisdom. I could see his obvious interest in me but what got his interest I don't know. May be he is friendly with everyone.
"Bells" Sam's voice didn't sound excited. "Jocob you just met her. within seconds you are nick naming her. what will he think about us?"
"Its ok. I am really fine. Shall we start?"
We all got in to the cab. I could tell my mom still wishes that I will stay. But I am too stubborn for that to happen. Phil had a comforting hand over her shoulders. Sam was just looking out the windows. Jocob was the only one who kept on talking. He was trying to cheer me up and by that way get to know me.
"Hey Bells do you always look this fragile or it is just today?"
"I am not fragile." I fired back. He laughed "sure. Sure."
We reached airport and my mom started fussing about taking good care of myself. Even Phil surprised me by requesting Sam to have a look on my safety. Sam assured them both that I am like his own sister and so he will always keep an eye on my safety. To say I was touched was an understatement. I turned to hug Phil and guess what! Yes I tripped. If you ask me on what, I am sorry I don't know. Jocob got my wrist and helped me get my balance. By the time I was on my feet my face was red.
"yeah you people really take good care of me" I said sarcastically.
They just laughed more"huh!" suddenly I was enveloped in my mom's hug. "I am really going to miss you Bella." "I will miss you too mom. You both take good care of each other." Phil nodded and it was time for our boarding. "Bye mom. Bye Phil"I said supressing the tears. "Bye Bella" they both said in unison making me smile.
Once we got into the plane I sat on the window seat, Jocob was next to me and Sam was behind me. I was having flash backs when the flight started. "hey are you okay?" Jacob's voice made me come out of my reverie. "Yeah" then I realised the tears I have been hiding has started spilling. I whipped my face and smiled at Jacob. "You don't need to act strong Bells. I know you are upset. But come on we are going to get to know each other. You should be happy that you got a chance to be a friend of a handsome and smart guy. "Wow! That will be great. Who is that guy by the way?" I asked him teasingly. He laughed and ruffled my hair. I really like him. He has become one of my best friends in quiet a short time.
We shared about our life and Jake always made me laugh. When it was time for our landing I really felt light and happy at the prospect of having a new life. When we landed Sam asked a moment to talk with me. "Bells I didn't lie when I told you mom that I will have an eye on your safety. But I require your co-operation too for that. Remember if you find anything or anyone unusual you should immediately tell me. Don't make friends with people you suspect." He finished and I was confused. What is he trying to tell? "is something wrong Sam?" "No Bells. Just a precaution." He said immediately. I was tensed a bit. I always suspected Sam to know more about my previous encounter with angels. He always winces if I call them angel. But I know they aren't human. They can't be. "Now we should be going." He grasped my hand and we went out.
I saw my dad Charlie Swan. He waved at me once to get my attention. I went over to him. We shared an awkward hug. Charlie already knew Sam. I was about to introduce Jake but what happened surprised me. "Hey Jake. How is Billy?" "He will do better now for I am gonna stay with him Charlie" he said. "wait! You both know eachother?" jake smirked and Charlie told that he is his friend Billly Black's son. I turned to Jake with my hands on my waist. "How come you didn't tell me all these time?" "It was nice to meet you as a new person and capture your attention then become your friend and.." "okay I forgive you please stop." Everyone laughed and i got into Charlie's cruiser. Sam and Jake are going to be in La push but they both promised to visit me.
