There's not much to say on this first chapter.

Love you all!
2 Months Ago
"Cut it out Jake," I laugh as he tickles me in the neck. "I'm driving. Put your seatbelt on."
"I thought you girls can multi task? And you know I hate seatbelts" he says, earning him a smack on his shoulder from Leah in the back seat.
"Leave her Jake, you know she only got her license three months ago," she jokes.
"Ha ha Leah," I say. "You know as well as I do that I've been driving since me feet could touch the pedals."
We're on our way back from a weekend away and Leah falls asleep on the way home on the back seat. We have another three hours to go and I'm dead tired, my eyes burning.
I look to the side and see Jake's head leaning on the headrest, his gaze fixed on me.
"What?" I ask smiling, looking back at the road.
"When are you going to admit that you love me?" he asks softly.
I look over at him again, my heart beating fast in my chest.
"Do you love me Jake?" I ask seriously. I need to know for sure before I give him my heart.
He's my best friend and I don't want to lose that.
"You know I do."
My stare holds him captive for another few seconds before I look back at the road.
That's when I see it.
The beat of my heart slows down, shrieking to a halt in my chest, the air freezing my lungs.
A wandering buck is meters away from my car in the middle of the road, blinded by my headlights and I'm going to fast to stop.
"Bella!" I hear Jake call as I jerk the wheel to the side.
Wrong thing to do.
I don't remember anything after that.
Oh wait, I do…I remember Jake's body being flung from the car just before everything goes black.
