Seth, Brady, & Collin (Not mentioned) - 8th grade.

As she stared at her reflection in the girl's bathroom, she couldn't help but wonder "Why me?" All the other girls were pretty and here she was fat, ugly, with boring brown hair, and dull green eyes. Her big grandma glasses were practically falling off her face. Hell, even her best friend and cousin Leah was practically a goddess! She couldn't understand why they felt the need to pick on her. Jumping slightly when she heard a loud bang on the door.

"Come out half-breed! You can hide in there for long." Sam Uley's voice rang out.

A chorus of "Yeah's" and snickers could be heard faintly.

Sam's gang, which included Paul Meraz, Jared Cameron, Jacob Black, Quil Ateara, and Embry Call, had been bullying her for as long as she could remember.

They had chased her to the bathroom after causing her to trip and fall, sending the unknown substance on her lunch tray had splattered all over her clothes. After that incident, she couldn't take it anymore. She pulled out her cell phone, rapidly dialed and waited. After three calls, she finally got an answer.

"Dad?"

"Bella? Honey, are you okay? You sound hurt. Are you in danger? Just tell me where you are and …"

"DAD! I'm fine. Look, I've thought about things for a while and instead of just visiting mom for the summer, I've decided that I want to stay with her for."

"Not for too long. Just for a little bit." She added quickly. After a long pause, there was a sigh.

"Are you sure you want to do this Bells?"

"Yeah dad, I'm as sure as I'll ever be."

"Okay. Well I'm going to call Renee and get a flight scheduled for tonight."

"Thanks dad. I love you."

"Love you too sweetie."

Bella was excited. She'd finally be getting away from La Push and all it troubles. Not realizing how long she had been in the bathroom, the dismissal bell rang above her head. She ran to her truck as fast as she could without being noticed and headed home to pack.

Calling and telling Leah was hard and caused the pair to shed many tears. Leaving her best friend was going to be hard, but after many promises the two hung up.

Soon Bella was on a plane to Florida. Hopefully this move would be exactly what she needed.

Another A/N: In this story Bella is half Quileute and half black. Also this story may be OOC.

I'm going to be attempting to write 2 stories at once and trying to keep my updates as consistent as possible. Until then …
