Bella was going back home. To her father, Charlie Swan. After being away from Forks, Washington for over 4 years, she was finally going home for good.

She had gotten her teaching degree, graduated three weeks ago. She wanted to teach the kids that lived on the reservation, La Push. That's exactly what she is doing. She sent in her application and heard back just this last week. She was excited to be doing something she wanted to do for herself.

Edward never let her do anything. It was always about what he had wanted, what he thought she wanted. He thought her a possession, not a person, which is what she is. Being human is what he wasn't, he is a vampire. Unfortunately.

When Bella lived in Forks, she had met him and his family when she was in high school, and she was seventeen. He had left her and never returned. For that she was eternally grateful. Granted it took her a few months to get over it, but when she did she found new friends that almost took his place.

The wolves of La Push.

Bella didn't know about them at first. She found out when her best friend, Jacob Black spilled. Well kind of spilled, she still had to piece it all together. When she found out, it brought them together. It brought them all together.

Snarky, sarcastic, Paul.

Calm, collected, Embry.

Hilariously silly, Quil.

Sweet, fun loving, Seth.

Bitchy, loyal, Leah.

Laid back, Jake.

Cool, observing, Jared.

And leading Alpha, Sam.

There may be new wolves by now, but since Bella has been gone, she didn't know them. She did know that four of the wolves, that she knew had imprinted. They found their supposed soul mates.

Rachel Black, was imprint to Paul.

Kim, was imprint to Jared.

Little Claire, was imprint to Quil.

And Emily, was imprint to Sam.

She wasn't a big fan of Emily's. She thought Emily seemed a little fake. Forced niceness, if you would call it that. Bella wasn't the only one that saw it. Rachel, Paul, Seth, Leah and Jake all saw it.

Kim didn't see it because her and Emily had become close due to the fact that they were imprints. Jared didn't see it because Kim didn't. Embry didn't see it because he gave the benefit of doubt to everyone. Quil didn't see it because little Claire was related to Emily. Sam didn't see it because Emily was his imprint. Has been for a long while now.

Why can no one see how wrong she is for him, Bella thought. Wait, my friends can. I can always count on them.

Bella soon made it to her father's house. She knew he was there, for his police cruiser was out front. She grabbed her purse, and climbed out of the car.

Making her way to the front door, she knocked firmly before opening the door.

"Dad? You here?" She called.

"That you, Bells?" He responded as he came out of the kitchen, with Sue Clearwater in tow.

"Who else would be calling you dad, Charlie?" Bella laughed.

"True, true." He chuckled. Sue chuckled with him.

"Hiya, Sue. How are you doing?" Bella asked the other woman.

"Good. Just trying to keep my kids from starting something they won't be able to finish. They aren't getting along with a certain imprint on the rez." She explained.

Bella sighed. "Still? That's not resolved? I was hoping it would have been, by now. That sucks."

Both her father and Sue nodded their heads.

"Lovely. When did you get here?" A voice sounded behind Bella. She turned around and saw who it came from.

"Leah! How are you?" Bella asked her.

Leah smiled genuinely. "I have been good. Just avoiding my Alpha. Well, not him per se. Just his imprint. I'm tellin' you something is fishy with their imprint. It's like creepily there. It's too obvious, I guess you could say."

Bella nodded, " Yeah I know. I noticed that before I even left."

Leah smirked, "You noticed a lot of things about Sam. At first I thought you had a crush on him." Bella blushed vibrantly. "Oh my God. Did you have a crush on Sam? If so, I am totally fine with it. I mean, I like you, unlike Emily."

"Well thank you, Leah. As for your question. Yes. I liked Sam. I don't know if I do still, seeing as I haven't seen him in four years. You know what I mean." Leah nodded.

"I heard you are teaching on the rez. Which school?"

"The high school." Bella replied.

"That's hilarious. Sam work there too. He's the gym teacher."

Well, shit.
