Lost

Bella

The moment Charlie heard Bella wanted to go back to Forks, preparations were made immediately. Boxes were moved into Emilia's room or closets and the cleaning brigade began.

For nearly an entire month, Charlie and Emilia prepared for Bella's arrival. 

Soon enough the day came. 

Charlie had gotten up early so that he could be early. It was, of course, cold and rainy. But Emilia was warm and cozy under her blankets, soft snores escaping her lips. Her hair was splayed out on the pillow, a mix 

It was a Saturday, so she was free to sleep. At Least for a while.

The impact of a person jumping onto her bed, woke the teenage witch. She groaned and opened her hazel eyes enough to see Jacob's smiling face.

Emilia groaned again and grabbed a pillow, hitting the teenage boy with it. "Ow.. what was that for?" Jake asked with a pout, getting completely comfortable in his best friend's bed.

"You woke me up! It's a crime punishable by pillow hitting. . . and sometimes death." Emilia responded sitting up. Her eyes trailed over to her alarm clock and her eyes widened.

4:51 pm.

The numbers made her smack Jake with another pillow. "I never sleep this late! Why didn't anyone wake me up until now!? I have to start dinner in nine minutes!" 

"In my defense Charlie didn't want me to wake you up yet, he said you needed the sleep!" Jake responded, chuckling at the glare he received from the older teen. 

"Since when do you listen to Charlie?"

"Uh.. since Bella got here." As if remembering, the brunette teen scrambled out of her bed, almost tripping over the pile of clothes on her floor as she made her way to her dresser. 

"You still have that obnoxiously obvious crush on her?" Emilia asked, as she picked up her brush and started brushing her hair.

"Pffft. . . What crush?" Emilia burst out laughing and shook her head. "I'd tell her if I were you, it's gonna be like a feeding frenzy at school on Monday."

The moment Emilia hit the bottom step, she was hugging Bella. It felt complete with everyone there. It felt like it did a long time ago.

By 6:00 everyone was eating pizza, scattered throughout the downstairs. 

Emilia had decided on pizza for dinner since a game was on and it would be cruel to pull Charlie away when his team was winning. But she finally got to see Bella again. 

The cousins caught up as best they could with Emilia doing most of the questioning and talking since Bella was more awkward than she remembered.

"It's good to see you after so long." Emilia admitted, sipping her Dr. Pepper. 

"Yeah it is, I missed you."

"I missed you too Bells."
