History: Charlie married Renee right out of high school. They had a baby, Bella. Renee felt suffocated and hated living in Forks. One day, Renee took Bella and left. Charlie’s only contact with Bella after that was phone calls and her visiting him every summer. He never got over Renee so he never remarried. Not that no one would have wanted him. He is a charming fellow and many women would like to have dated him but he was just never interested. Maybe it was because he was aftaid of getting hurt again. The only time he had room for someone else in his life was when Bella came to stay with him in the summer time.
One day, when Bella was seventeen, she moved in with him permanently. Charlie was thrilled. It was difficult to get used to but Charlie tried very hard to make Bella’s stay a pleasant one. He bought new things for Bella’s room and got help decorating it. He even bought her an old computer so she could keep in touch with her mother. Nothing he did seemed to work. Bella met a boy at school and he was all she thought about. Charlie tried to like him but there was just something about him that he didn’t trust. He liked the boy’s father well enough but it was his duty as a father to protect his daughter. One night Bella came home upset. Apparently she broke up with the boy. She packed her things and left. She was gone. Charlie called Renee and told her what happened. He was confused. The next thing he knew he got a call saying that Bella was in an accident and that Edward and Carlisle, who had followed her to bring her back home, had saved her life when she fell down some stairs and through a window.
Charlie was thrilled that Bella came back home. He wasn't thrilled that she was back with that boy. It was on her 18th Birthday that she went to Edwards’s house, when she came home, things didn't look right. Charlie was worried. He wanted to help but he didn't know how. A few days later, Bella disappeared and the Cullen’s moved. Charlie called in everyone he could to form a search party to find Bella. Sam Uley found her, for that Charlie would be forever grateful, but Bella was a mess. For months Charlie tried to comfort her though nightmares and help her get through her broken heart. He was about to send her back to her mother when she started coming out of it. He was happy she was hanging around with Jacob Black. He trusted that boy.
Just when he thought everything was great, Bella ran off to Italy with Alice Cullen. To as insult to injury, she brought ‘that boy’ back home with her. They restarted their relationship like nothing ever happened. He will never forgive him for hurting Bella but he tries to get along with him. He is after all Bella’s husband and the father of his granddaughter, Renesme. He knows there is something up with the Cullen’s, and now their friends the Corinthians have moved in. He doesn’t trust them any more than he trusts the Cullen’s.
RP Sample:
Charlie stepped out onto the porch in his police chief uniform. It was raining again. He thought about locking the door but decided against it in case Bella needed something from her room. He left it just how it was when she moved out. She never needed anything from her room but you never know.
He put his hat on his head as he skipped down the four steps to the path below then walked quickly to his car. He took out his key and unlocked the door. His squad car had to be locked because he had a rifle in there. He had not used it much over the years but it was standard equipment.
He got in the car and started it. He needed to let it warm up so he sat there, staring off into space. He was glad his daughter was happy and he was glad to have a granddaughter, even if she did grow freakishly fast. He knew better than to ask question. Bella was different now, she looked different. She was more beautiful that she had ever been. Somehow there was something wrong with that too. Charlie was suddenly very tired. He leaned his forehead on his steering wheel and sighed.
This was getting him nowhere. He straightened up, took a deep breath and put his car in gear. Getting lost in his work in what would help…hadn’t it always?
