Forever Yours [Twilight Fanfic]

Ch. 3 The Quileute tribe seems peaceful

Bella and Charlie packed all of her belongings in a suitcase to take to Black's residence. Once they got done, Charlie stepped out of the room with the luggage in his grasp. Meanwhile, Bella silently stood in her bedroom, feeling sad.

' I hate that I am leaving Dad alone in this house again. But, I think it is best to be away from this place to not look at Edward in the eyes. I mean, I need time to think about what I want for my life,' Bella worriedly tells herself as she turns around and leaves her bedroom.

Charlie stood by the stairs, and he held his hand out to Bella.

" Are you ready?" Charlie asked while fondly staring at Bella.

Bella nods her head in response.

" I'm ready," Bella reassures Charlie as she gently grabs his hand and carefully walks down the stairs with him.

" Dad. Are you-Are you sure Billy and Jacob are okay with me living with them till I get better?" Bella asked, sounding concerned.

' I mean, when I was with Edward, Billy would always look at me disapprovingly. Is it because he did not like that his best friend's daughter was with a vampire?' Bella asked herself, sounding curious.

" Yes, Bells. I asked Billy, and he said that he does not mind you living with him and his boy because he sees you as a daughter," Charlie reassures Bella.

Bella's chocolate brown eyes widened, feeling surprised to hear that Billy sees her as a daughter.

" I will thank him when I see him," Bella softly smiled.

Charlie nods his head in response as they reached the living room. He then lets go of Bella's hand to unlock the door and open it.

Charlie steps out of the house while Bella stood by the door, feeling nervous since she is afraid that Edward would pop out of nowhere at any second and try to convince her not to leave Forks.

Charlie walks towards Bella's orange truck, and he carefully puts his daughter's luggage inside.

Bella leans forward, and she looks at her surroundings. She then sighed in relief when she noticed that Edward is nowhere in sight.

' Alright. Let's get going,' Bella tells herself as she walks out of the house and heads towards Charlie.

" Let me help you," Charlie lightly grabs Bella's arm, and he escorts her to the passenger side. He then opens the door and helps her into the truck.

" Thank you," Bella softly smiled as she grabs the seat belt and puts it on herself.

Charlie closed the side passenger door, jogs around the truck, opens the driver's door, and he gets inside the vehicle. He puts on his seatbelt, and he turns his gaze to Bella.

" You know I love you. And even though I am sad that I cannot take care of you while you recover because of my job as a Police Chief. I know Billy, his kid, Jacob, and even the Clearwater's will take good care of you for me," Charlie softly smiled at Bella.

Bella nods her head in understanding.

" I love you too, Dad. And I am so sorry for the way I treated you after I temporarily left Forks. I shouldn't have said those awful things to you," Bella genuinely apologized.

" I am glad you are okay. I was so scared that I was going to lose you when I saw you on that hospital bed," Charlie confessed.

Bella's heart ached when she hears that she made Charlie worried because of her immature decisions. She carefully leans to the left, wraps her left arm around Charlie's shoulders, and side hugs him.
