Bella drove in her 'before car' the Mercedes S600 Guard. Edward had conveniently had to replace her truck not to long after Bella agreed he could replace her truck once it no longer run. She hadn't been expecting it to be so soon. Bella was able to go to Port Angeles it was sunny today so there wasn't much Edward could do about it. It was nice to have a day that she didn't have to try on her dress make sure everything fit she didn't have anything to do with the decorations Alice was keeping that a secret. Not that Bella minded she wanted to get this whole thing over with. Just to think in a few short weeks she would be a vampire and be able to be with Edward forever. But she was dreading the wedding maybe it wouldn't be as bad as she was making it out to be.
Bella was also doing her best not to think of her best man, Jacob Black. He was missing and every time he walked in Forks he saw a poster of him. She felt horrible about it he was in pain because of her. No one would have seen him at least not that boy. Bella pushed the thoughts to the back of her mind she wasn't going to think about it right now.
Bella parked her 'before car' she still hadn't really gotten use to driving it yet she missed her truck. Bella walked into the bookstore browsing through a few books. She needed a few books to simply enjoy reading. She had read so many of her others books over and over but she loved them they were classics. |

Rachael was stalling. She could have gone on home, but it was early yet and she wasn't ready. She had just finished school at WSU and was supposed to be driving home for the first time in over two and half years. She had not planned to come home this early but one of her old school friends had called her, telling her posters of her brother were up over town saying he was missing.
Frighten she had called her father who had brushed it off, and told her not to worry. That he 'knew' Jacob was fine. Rachael had decided to come home a few weeks early to see for ehr self. Still . . . .
She had avoided La Push for a reason. Rachael was walking up the the front to check out when a pale burnett walked into the store. Rachael felt as if she might knew then girl, but couldn't place the face, or give her a name. She didn't even remember were she would have meet her but this close to home it wasn't hard to guess. Rachael stared at her for a moment, before walking closer. "Please pardon me, but, I think I might know you, but I am not sure." ((Icons not of my own making. Credit goes to 'Leah' of MP.)) |

Bella easily got distracted when looking at books. She was not going to focus on the wedding that was going to happen in just a few short days or Jacob. All worries she didn't want to think about. But shouldn't she be thinking about Jacob more than she was? He was hurting because of her and she couldn't help but feel horrible about it. She tried not to think about him around anyone. Every time she drove in Forks she would see missing posters and it was like a slap in the face. No one would see that boy.
Her wedding just days away she was hoping it wouldn't be as bad as she feared. She was completely surprised by her mother's reaction she hadn't expected that. Bella glanced at her left hand the ring seemed to stand out. It was difficult to think she was going to be married. Edward would her husband it just seemed a bit strange to put that word with him. Maybe she would get use to it.
Bella took a deep breath she wasn't going to think about that right now. Bella turned around as someone said they might now her. She recognized this girl only she was much younger last time she had seen her. Rachael Black, Jacob's sister, Bella didn't know if this encounter was going to be good or bad. She was trying not to think of Jacob but how could she not when talking to her sister? "You're Rachael right?" Bella questioned confident that this was indeed Jacob's sister. "We use to play together in La Push when we were kids. I'm Bella Swan." Bella told her name in case she did forget.

Rachael remembered, vaguely, the times Bella had came down and Charlie had put them all together with Rachael's mother to play while he and Billy we fishing. It was vague because it had been so long ago, and felt much longer then it seemed. At lest for Rachael.
She also remembered a few phone calls between her father and her, and even fewer between Jacob and her, were they had spoken of how Jacob and Bella were sort of close. Billy hinted a few times the thought they might be a couple. Then it suddenly stopped as if her name had been bad to say. She knew enough to know there was someone else, someone her father (oddly enough) didn't approve of. Rachael wasn't sure why her father was disapproving of the match, but she trusted him.
"Right!" Rachael said and gave a small smile. Jacob's friend Bella, now. Missing Jacob's friend. "Hey, this might be sort of random, but, would you like to get a drink from the Cafe and sit with me for a moment?" She wanted to know what was going on, and her father's 'everything is ok' comments were getting on her nerves. ((Icons not of my own making. Credit goes to 'Leah' of MP.)) |

"Sure I got time," Bella replied. She supposed it would be nice to catch up with Rachael it had been a long time since they were kids. Probably since she was twelve when she refused to go to Forks for the summer making her father come visit her instead. Maybe she had been a bit selfish, but she was tired of Forks. But now if you told her to leave she would fight you over it she was not going to leave Forks at least not without Edward. Though here in a few weeks after she had her honeymoon Bella probably blushed a bit at the thought. She would be a vampire a newborn completely out of control. Edward wouldn't let her kill any humans they would go to Antarctica if they had to.
Bella began wondering what Rachael would want to talk about. It was going to be hard not to think about Jacob around his sister. He was in so much pain because of her and it wasn't right of her. She still wanted him close by and she shouldn't. She wonder if she shouldn't just say she's busy so she won't have to think about Jacob maybe that would be for the best, but it was to late she already agreed. Maybe it woldn't be as bad as she was thinking it would be. |

"ok," Rachael said, not sure how to start off. She gave Bella a hesitant smile and then lead the way over to the Cafe line. While they waited, Rachael tired to think of a good way to start off. She knew Bella would know something about Jacob, her Dad had said--well, he had said allot and then nothing.
"WOW!" Rachael said when she caught sight of the ring, "Umm, congratulations." She wondered who the guy was, since her Dad had hinted that Jacob and Bella had been close. Either her Dad was very wrong, or Bella moved very fast. ((Icons not of my own making. Credit goes to 'Leah' of MP.)) |

Bella followed Rachel as they made their way to the cafe. Bella was worried what she would want to talk about. Did she know her brother was missing? Would she question Bella about it and what happen? What all did she know? So many questions and Bella wasn't sure if she wanted the answers. To focus on Jacob was difficult because she knew exactly where he was and why. Because of her he had run away because of her. Bella could not escape the guilt that brought. That knowledge pained her more than anything. She was always hurting Jacob, her best friend, her best man. It wasn't right of her to do this.
Bella could feel her cheeks get hot as Rachel noticed her ring. She was always known for blushing at the simplest of things even when she was embarrassed. "Thanks," Bella replied. She couldn't recall how Rachel was exactly if she would ask question after question finding out how she got engaged. Much like her friend Jessica, or would she be more quiet about it like Angela. They were kids when they last met so they had both changed drastically. At least Bella had and that had a lot to do with Edward Cullen. Just the thought of him changed her mood she wasn't wouldn't have to worry about other things. Only that soon she would be with him forever and that's all she wanted. As selfish as it might be.

[/size][/color] Rachael got the impression that the wedding was off limits for their chat. It was Bella's one word answer that made her hesitant (and a little shy) to ask any more questions about the rather large ring. Rachael stayed silent until it was their turn to order, since she could not think of anything else to say until they were seated. She didn't want to start the conversation in line. "Can I, please, get a white chocolate cream kewla." Rachael looked over at Bella. "My treat." She said, since she was the one who asked Bella to stay for a bit, Rachael felt she should be the one to pay.
Money was tight, at time for Rachael, but she worked a job that gave her allot of tips from her regular customers. So she always at at lest ten dollars cash on her, which helped for gas, and things like this. Drinks with a friend, or a friend of a brother. [/blockquote] ((Icons not of my own making.

Bella order one of the drinks she had favored, before looking at Rachael as she offered to pay for it. "Are you sure?" Bella didn't really like anyone buying anything for her. Even her ring that Edward had given her was his mothers. It was beautiful and seemed to represent him. Bella was thankful Rachel didn't push for any more information about the wedding. It was still hard to believe she was getting married. The thoughts he wasn't to happy with marriage wasn't what she had in mind. It been the one thing she would have struggled with. Somehow Edward had picked it out she knew his reasons, but still. Her mother's reaction had been a bit suprising as well.
Edward would keep hid deal they could have a real honeymoon that probably brought another blush to her face. And he would change her into a vampire herself. She would often go to her happy place when Alice was fixing her dress. Which was always with Edward after the wedding. Maybe the wedding wouldn't be that bad, but she looked so plain next to Edward wouldn't it show even more? Bella pushed thoughts about the wedding out of her mind turning her attention back to Rachel.

[/size][/color] "Yeah, I got us, just grab us a seat and I will join you with the drinks once they are made. I can sit anywhere." Rachael waited for the drinks, and felt her self get nervous but she knew she had to find out why her brother was missing. If her father was any standard then this was just teenage boy things and Rachael should not worry. Rachael wasn't going to believe that. She had talked to Chief Swan and gotten some more details. Between what her father at told her before and what Charlie had told her now, Rachael was sure Jacob didn't leave while be a rebellious teen. Bella might help her find some answers.
Once the drinks were ready, Rachael smiled, in thanks and went to join Bella. "Here you go." Sitting down, Rachael a moment for them to settle in before speaking up again. This time, her voice was softer, as if she was nervous and hesitant in asking. "I wanted to know if I could ask you some questions about my brother. With him being missing, I am coming home to help find him. How was he the last time you saw him?" [/blockquote] ((Icons not of my own making. Credit goes to 'Leah' of MP.)) |

Bella waited patiently as the drinks were being made. Bella to allowed Rachael to pay for the drinks. It wasn't to much so it wasn't that big of a deal. Bella remained quiet finding no reason to talk. She could find comfort in being quiet much like her father could. It was a trait she had inherited from him. Bella smiled back at Rachael as she followed her to a table. Bella tried no to focus on anything for very long. So much had happen in such a little amount of time. This was what she wanted to be vampire to be with Edward forever. But there were people she would miss and people she was worried about even now.
Bella took a seat as Rachael did. She didn't know if there was anything that Rachael wanted to know about in particular or not. She looked at her drink before looking at Rachel hearing her soft voice. Jacob. The one person who she had being trying not to think about. The person she had hurt. It was because of her that he was gone. There was no other reason. She had hurt him constantly it wasn't right of her. It never had been. She loved him and it was not enough. Bella bit her lip looking down for a moment. She couldn't tell Rachel he was werewolf or what was happening in her world. She had to lie about this. Bella had never been a good lair, but she could tell some truth. "He was upset. Mostly at me." That was true. Bella couldn't deny that wasn't. He left because of her because she had chosen Edward over him. And it pained her every day. Charlie was determined to find him, but no one would ever find him. There was no telling where he was.
