The next couple of months flew by. Charlie he finally opened his garage with Paul and Jared and had gotten the biggest shock of his life when Paul accidentally shifted in front of him, resulting in him hearing the Legends of the Tribe. Jordyn was excelling in her course and doing great work at the hospital. Rosalie, Emmett and Jasper had brought a house close to theirs and were all living their best life. Rose and Emmett were both going to college and chosen careers that they both wanted without the input of the Cullen's. Rose was working as a victim support liaison, supporting them through their traumatic experience and giving them the help their need for their future. Emmett had been working with Charlie at the garage but also studying childcare, something he never thought he would enjoy but was grateful for the opportunity. Jasper was yet to graduate, in his last year, but he had been spending a lot of time with Angela, she had been helping with his bloodlust and he had even become friends with Mike and Eric.
"What do I do?"
Jordyn had been cooking lunch for her boyfriend and his father, Chief Charlie walking into the house before Charlie had finished his shift. The young witch and Chief had gotten closer the past couple of months, Jordyn cooking for him almost everyday as Bella had pretty much been comatose, which was just pathetic.
"Send her back to her mother. You have tried everything. You've given her space, been patient and given her whatever she needed. There is only so much you can take before you've had enough. Obviously she cares more about the Cullen's and its not fair to you and Charlie. Send her to her mother and she can deal with her." Jordyn replied. She hated how much Bella was still affecting those around her. It wasn't fair that Chief Charlie had to suffer the consequences of the actions of Bella and the Cullen's. They should have been more careful and they clearly didn't care who got hurt.
Charlie sighed, "You're right. I just don't want her to think I gave up on her."
"Charlie, if anything, she gave up on you. You did everything you could to provide her with a happy and safe life while she lived under your roof but clearly she did not appreciate you and everything you did for her. If she can't appreciate everything you do for her, then you take it away from her and hopefully she realises how much she needs you in her life. You can't keep hurting yourself for someone that obviously doesn't care." Jordyn firmly replied. As her father he had done everything for her but she had done nothing more than hurt him and he did not deserve that.
"What if she hates me?"
"Then she doesn't deserve you."

"What did you say to him?"
Jordyn had certainly not expected Bella to show up at her house after the conversation with Chief Charlie the day before, but she did know that she wasn't just going to let her father ship her away without a fight and that she would blame Jordyn and Charlie for the decision.
The young witch rolled her eyes, "I told him that he should send you to your mother. He has done everything he can for you yet you can't see that. That man is sacrificing his sanity and health for you but you don't care. I'm not going to stand by and watch him sacrifice himself for your sake." The old man had been through enough with her around and it was time that was put to a stop.
Bella sighed, "I'm sorry."
"Excuse me? You're sorry?" Jordyn asked in disbelief.
Bella nodded her head softly, "You were right. I should have never gotten involved with the Cullen's, I should have thought about the consequences of getting involved with them. I have been selfish, especially to Charlie and dad. I'm going to listen to dad and go and stay with mom for a while. All I have done is hurt people since coming here and thats not fair."
"I'm sorry. I'm gonna need you to repeat yourself." Jordyn spoke with wide eyes. She could not believe the words that were coming out of her mouth. 4 months, it took 4 months for her to realise all the damage that she has done to those around her. On top of that, she was apologising? What the hell has the world come to? Did she hit her head? When did she become delusional? Jordyn had no idea what to make of the situation.
"I know, I can't believe its taken me so long but I am sorry. I have hurt so many people and I have a lot of amending to do." Bella replied.
Jordyn scoffed, "You have to understand why I don't believe you. You have hurt so many people since coming here and quite frankly, I don't know what you want me to say. I don't like, I've made that clear from the beginning, especially considering how much you've hurt the people I care about so your apology means absolutely nothing to me. If you want to redeem yourself, you have a long list of apologies to make and I'm certainly not the person to start with. I have no problem with you being in Charlie's life if thats what he wants but I'm not going to stand by and let you hurt him, understood?" She didn't like Bella, that had been clear from the beginning, therefore she doubted her apology but if she was serious, she had a lot of apologising to do. She wanted nothing to do with her but she didn't have a say in if Charlie and Chief Charlie forgave her.
Bella nodded, "I understand. You're right and I understand if you don't believe but I'm going to prove that I have changed. I also wanted to thank you."
"Thank me? For what?"
"For being the daughter I couldn't be and being there for Charlie when I was too selfish."
