The sun was shining through the window when I woke up this morning. Edward was still out hunting from the night before so of course I was dripping in sweat. 10 months out of the year, Forks can be considered the wettest place on the continent. However in the month's of July and August, the town is no different from what any one would expect from the season of summer. This summer was different however. Not only was it my first full summer in forks, but it was also the summer I was to be married. In four weeks time, I will be getting married to the love of my life, Edward Cullen. I sighed at the thought. It wasn't that it was a bad thing. I love Edward with every fiber of my being. Ever since I moved to forks I felt a bit like something was missing. I assured my self that it was probably just nerves. I mean who get's married at 18? Apparently, me.

I got ready and walked downstairs. Charlie was sitting on the couch watching golf. It was one of his few days off so I wasn't expecting him to have made himself breakfast, but I asked anyways.

"Hey dad, hungry?"

"Only if you are, Bells." Charlie answered, his eyes not moving from the television.

"Yeah, I was thinking I would make some pancak- oh."

"What the matter?" I had opened the fridge to see an absence of eggs and an empty milk carton.

"Were just out of a few things. I can go to the grocery store."

"No need" Charlie said rolling off the couch. He made his way in to the kitchen. "I can go. I have to get a new tackle box from the Newtons, and stop at the station quickly anyways."

"Dad, it's your day off." I said. Going to the equipment store wasn't bad, and I wasn't prepared to go. I had worked there until recently. He really loved his job a lot. Sometimes I wish I had a passion or a hobby, besides reading.

"No it's fine. I just left my cell phone there last night. I'm not working." Charlie smiled reassuring. Sometimes I forget he survived 17 years with out me. "Hey, why don't you go check out that new bakery down on 2nd Avenue? Sit down, have coffee, tea or whatever and then bring back a donut for your old man. Treat yourself, you never do." Charlie smiled. It wasn't a bad idea. "And I guess since the weather's good, and I'm having a good day, you can take that motor bike of yours. Not a notch over 30 though." I laughed.

"You sound like you are trying to get rid of me." I noted.

"I just wan't you to have some fun by your self before, you tie your self down, and spend every waking moment with Edward." The sad thing was is that Charlie was right. Once I was married, I wouldn't be eating at all, maybe checking out the bakery wouldn't be that bad.

"Fine. See yea later." I said. I went to the back shed where Charlie reluctantly let me keep my bike and helmet.

With a few stares, I parked my bike in the neighboring lot. The bakery was like something out a movie. As well as the inside facility, there were picnic tables and fountains all around it outside. Vines hung from overhead wooden planks, and the people were happy. Well, except for one guy who looked like he just lost a cosplay contest for Neo from the matrix - besides the whole sunglasses thing. His frown faded when he saw me though. It's almost as if he recognized me. I awkwardly tried to return his smile as I walked inside.

To my surprise, I spent the rest of the day at the bakery. Although I loved the sun, Forks had gotten to me and I sat inside on one of the lounge chair's with tea, my book, and of course Charlie's wrapped up long john. The good thing about forks is that there wasn't a lot of people here so despite being in public, I managed to what felt like some a lone time. I was calm, until I looked up saw the oddly dressed man walking towards me.

"Bella!" I turned around to see the one and only Jessica Stanley behind me. "How are you doing, you must be excited." Her eyes motioned down to my stomach. I suddenly realized what she was implying.

"Oh god, Jessica. Im not pregnant!" I whispered violently to her. I turned my head slightly to see that the man had left and we were alone, apart from the baker and the few costumers on the other side of the room.

"Okay, Bella, what ever you say." She said sarcastically. I told Edward this is what people would think. "I'm serious though. In 4 weeks you're getting married. Ang and I got our dresses last week."

"Yeah, it's kind of unreal, I guess." I half smiled.

"Well I'll see you later. I was just coming by to drop off a resume. Mike want's to take a year off to save money, so I guess I'll need a job to keep me occupied until we go to back to California next year." I could see a bit of disappointment in her eyes. I new she really had her heart set on college.

We said goodbye's and I made my way back to my bike.

I hadn't realized how much time I actually spent out in the town today. I had made a few stops myself on the way as well. By the time I got home it was just before 5 o'clock. I parked my bike in the driveway. Hoping to take it out again soon, now that Charlie had lightened up. When I got inside I noticed a note stuck to the key rack.

Gone to Billy's to organize for our fishing trip next week. Won't be home for dinner. See you probably tomorrow night. Will probably end up crashing there. - Dad

"Look's like it's just us tonight." An oh to familiar voice said from behind me as his cool arms turned me around.
"I missed you." I said. he said nothing. He pressed his ice cold lips to mine. My hands found their way to the back of his head and I knotted my fingers in his hair. I felt my feet lift off the ground, and in a quick movement we were in the kitchen, and I was sat upon the kitchen counter. This was not something Edward usually allowed. I wen't along with it until I finally had to take a brake to breathe.

"You know I'm not gonna unzip your pant's if that's what you're implying. You know we both agreed to wait." I said between heavy breathes. He smiled back.

" I guess it's just anticipation. We haven't had real alone time in months " He said seductively. This was really uncharacteristic for him, but he was kind of irresistible

"Well maybe just your shirt... and the couch." I gave in. He carried me to the couch and by the time I had time to look up his shirt was off. It always amazed me how perfect he was. We were completely focused on each other. That is until I heard loud knocking on the door. We both looked at one another with slight annoyance and got up. I motioned to Edwards shirt on the ground.

"It could be Charlie. He always forget's his house key." I said.

"It's not Charlie... I...I don't know who it is." Edward replied hesitantly. The person at the door knocked again. That was weird. He should have been able to whosever mind it was

"Let me get it then, they aren't looking for you. Stay here." Edward obeyed to my surprise and I went to the door. When I opened it, I was surprised to see that it was the strange man from the bakery.

"Swan." He said in an out of place british accent as he smiled foolishly. "At last." He moved forward but I put my hand out.

"Woah do I know you?" He respected my space a recollected himself.
" I need your help, something's happened, something terrible, your family is in trouble." He said seriously.

"My family? Charlie? Renee? They're fine the last time I checked. Who are you?"

"An old friend." He sighed. " I know you can't remember me but I can make you." All the sudden his lips were on mine and Edward had him up against the wall in less than a second.

"Who the hell do you think you are?" Edward growled.

"Sorry. Long shot. I thought I'd try. I was hoping you felt as I did." He retorted his eyes still on me. I could see Edward tighten his grip, he was seconds away from crushing this guy.

"Edward put him down. Please." Edward set him on his feet, and stood in front of me protectively. I peaked out from behind Edward. "All your gonna feel is the handcuff's when I call my father, the chief of Police." I said sternly

" Listen I know this sounds crazy but you have to listen to me. You have to remem-" His plea was cut off as Edward and I collectively shut the door on his face.

I looked at Edward confused.

"Probably just a drunk from the bar. Your dad makes your name pretty well known around here." He reassured me.

"Edward, what if my family really is in trouble?" I said pulling out my phone. I called my dad first. He said he was fine. I didn't tell him about the man. I just pretended to check up on him. I did the same with my mom. She was okay too. Something told me that I probably shouldn't tell Edward about my quick encounter with the guy at the bakery. Even idiotic humans don't deserve to have their heads ripped off by a vampire. Even if he was a stalker, I could deal with this by myself, I don't need Edward to solve all my problems.

I looked over to Edward who had a strange blank look on his face.

"Just let it go, Edward. Please. You getting involved won't help the situation. I can talk to Charlie about it. I'm sure he really is just a drunk from the bar. It's really nothing." I asked.

"I know." he replied.

"Then what's wrong?" I asked.

"I couldn't read his mind."
