Chapter one of The Smith's :) Hope you all enjoy

1. Hi everyone, Before the Sims 3 came out I was an avid Sims
2 Player and just recently I have decided to come back and
join the Sims 2 community. I am going to attempt to write a
legacy for all of you guys and well I hope it goes well. :)
Anyways, on with the Legacy.

2. *Meet the founder, Billy-Bella Smith; we will just call her Bella for short.
I will be writing in the perspective of Bella most of the time and when I do decide to throw my 2 cents worth in I will be
writing in the (*'s)*
I ran away from all I knew on my 19th birthday, I just wasn't ready. I wasn't ready to become a wife, let alone a wife to
Bobby Wayne a 60 year old man with 3 other wives. So on the eve of my 19th birthday I left, not knowing where I was to
go with only §100 in my pocket and the clothes on my back. The last stop on the bus was at Pleasentview Station, so with
no other choice I got off there and since then I haven't looked back. I am now 21 and have just moved into my first
apartment.

3. When I first arrived I sat here wondering, what do I want to achieve in my
life. It was simple, I wanted, no I needed a family. A big one to, not straight
away though. Grandchild that's it, six of them all running around. I have
always been good with children; I had to be with 4 younger brothers and
sisters and myself being the oldest with dead-beat parents, I was practically
the one who raised them.

4. I decided I needed a job, but what did I want to do everyday for the rest of my life? I'll see
what's in the paper...
DJ? That could be fun but I don't know.
Medical Intern? You'd think you would need a degree in something like that. But still I
don't think I could handle blood and old people.. Defiantly not the old people.
Teacher? Perfect! I love helping children, heck I love children in general. I am going to
apply for becoming a teacher. Boy I hope I get it.

5. I walked around my house looking for something to do. The best thing I could
find was to read a book, there was a lot of books to choose from. I ended up
grabbing a cook book since cooking was a hobby of mine. It was amazing
what I learnt from the book, found some great recipes too.

6. Whilst reading about food I found I became quite hungry. I thought of trying
a new recipe I found but after going through the fridge I was quick to find I
only had the basics and with my rent it would be all I could afford for a while.

7. Plus not eating well made my insides you could say not feel so good either..
But it's not like anyone will know since I have the whole apartment to myself
and the neighbor is always out. That reminds me... I should go introduce
myself soon.

8. A couple nights of being alone and having no reply to my application of
becoming a teacher I had a call from some old woman. Her name is, well
uhm, ahh that's it her name was Elle Hogan she spoke of going to some place
down town Gothier Lawns? Gardens? Something of the sorts, she explained it
would be a good way to get to know a few people, so unsure of what to expect
I left in some what an adventure downtown. A place I had never been and I
didn't feel to keen to go. But alas off I went.

9. After the cab driver picked me up he drove to Elle Hogan's house and then a
few streets away from hers we picked up another passenger Chloe Gonzaga. I
was quite shocked at the fact that what a 8-9 year old child was being
allowed into the city with complete strangers. I don't know what to make of
the parenting ways here but my children will not be allowed to do such
things.

10. The night was quite a bum, we all chatted getting to
know each other then went about to our own devices
for awhile. I spent most of my time hiding in the
cubical of the woman's bathroom. It was well kept for
a public bathroom. After it getting close to the time
the taxi was organised to pick me up I left the
bathroom bumping into a mighty strange person I
don't think I will soon forget.

11. His name was Count Sabastian Mazza, he sent icy
chills straight up my spine. He never once removed
his arm from in front of his mouth, I had quite a
strong idea why. He spoke with sharply and to the
point that I was in his path and how he must get
home since it was deadly close to sunrise. I looked
down at my watch surprised of how fast the night
had gone and how little happened.

12. I furiously dialed the taxi company demanding to know where our taxi
was, whilst keeping Chloe closely behind me. The maternal instincts kicked in
and I knew I had to get her home it was ridiculous that a child of her age was
here. Elle blankly stared at me when I snapped at her after she told me to
relax and that I didn't have to worry. Not to worry?! creepy people lingering
around a child and you tell me not to worry. Silly old bat she deserved a
piece of my mind. But I reframed myself from doing so, It was late.. well
early, and I just needed to take Chloe and myself home.

13. As the taxi pulled up Chloe thanked me for looking after her. What a well
mannered child I thought, I hope someday my children would be just as kind
and mannerly.
When I arrived home a 4:00 I saw I had a message on my answering
machine, I listened to it.' Hi Billy-Bella it is Samantha here, I have just read
you application for the teaching role and I would love for you to come in
tomorrow and start as a Playground Monitor, it's not teaching yet but it is
the starting position and you will be earning §215 a day. Can't wait to see
you tomorrow at 8:00 am and the carpool will be there at 7:00am sharp.'
Beeeep..

14. By the time I had made it to bed it was already 4:30am and I had to get up.
Something told me my first day wasn't going to be easy. Samantha was
right, the carpool did arrive 7:00am sharp. After picking up several others I
finally made it to my first day of work.

15. Samantha gave me a ride home that night, she was a really nice lady and I
could feel she would soon become a really close friend of mine. She was
pregnant, she told me how she also had a teenage son, a daughter how was
8 and a toddler boy, plus she said her mother in-law also lived with her and
her husband. I couldn't help but think of how full her hands would be. During
our conversation she offered me the job of Teacher's Aide, she said how she
much needed some help in her year 2 class, and it would be a good stepping
stone of becoming a Elementary School Teacher; I was stocked with her offer
and of course said yes.

16. Before having a much needed early night I had a shower and washed my hair.
I couldn't help but feel slightly lonely and wanted to meet someone to
possibly share my life with. I decided I would go out that night and hopefully
meet a few people and maybe even that special someone.

17. That morning I gazed into my mirror after doing my hair and hoped that by
the time I finished work I wouldn't look to bad. I applied my make-up not to
much but just enough to feel as that I looked nice. I heard the carpools old
tiny car turning onto my street I rushed to slip on my clothes and went off
downstairs.

18. As I jumped into the car, not only did I feel a bunch of dust fly off the seat
and into the air I felt as if the driver was staring at me, you know that
feeling when you can just feel it? Yeah I had that. I turned to look at him to
see if he wanted to say something but he quickly looked away and sped off.
It was quite weird but I didn't think much of it.

19. When I arrived home, I saw the delivery boy or girl had left the paper by my
door so I decided to bring it in. Samantha commented on how I live alone
and should maybe consider having a house mate. So before I left for the
night I looked at some potential house mate and didn't really find anyone.
Unless of course I wanted " Joel, Man, 25, looking for room big enough to fit
double bed. House mate needs to be fine with having different girls stay
over each night'' Uhm, No. I'll look again later.

20. I got changed into my casual clothes, quickly fixed my hair and got into my
car which I brought on my 20th birthday as a present to myself. I was unsure
of where to actually go, I didn't know many places to go to met others. I
drove out of my driveway and headed towards the community lot region of
Pleasentview hoping to find somewhere open.

21. After walking into a cafe asking where everyone is the owner pointed out to
me that it was Tuesday night and I should head down to the Pleasentview
Cemetery. He must of seen the puzzled look on my face. He explained that's
were my age group goes on Tuesdays just because it was something
different. It was different for sure...When I arrived I noticed a woman, a
pretty woman sitting at a desk, by the remote in her hand she was watching
TV. As I walked past the window walking towards the crowed I saw she was
watching the video feed from a security camera somewhere on the lot. She
was the security guard. I chuckled, she didn't look like she could guard much.
She must have heard me laugh and shot me a glare.

22. Phoenix Bruty, he was tall, tan and hot; very hot. He caught my eye right
away. After getting to know him in the group we went for a walk, I was flirting
like there was no tomorrow, he seemed very interested. Then I heard this loud
cackle.

23. I was shocked to look over the fence and see a witch, a green glowing witch.
Everyone on the lot just stared at her almost knowing something bad was
bound to happen any second. There was screaming as she waved her wand. I
looked away afraid at what was going to happen. Then when I looked back
she was gone. Everyone on the lot though started fighting.

24. It was a strange, I turned to Phoenix and he just turned away from me not
wanting anything to do with me.

25. I was shocked, hurt and almost even started crying. The first boy I had met I
let steal my heart after a few hours. I then felt stupid for letting myself get so
attached so fast. I promised I wouldn't do it again, but of course I knew I
would somehow. After that I just walked to my car got in and cried. I drove
home just wanting to crawl into bed and disappear.

26. The next morning I got up not wanting to go to work, not wanting to speak to
anyone. I waited in bed until I heard the carpool give up waiting on me and
rush off to pick up the others. I ate breakfast on my couch and realised I
needed a table set to sit at. So I went shopping for the day hoping no one
from work would see me because I told them I was sick.

27. After a day of browsing all my options I came home with this small set. I felt
proud, I had never really brought much for my self, since I had left home the
only thing I brought ever was my car, that took nearly all my money. Other
than that my money has been spent on rent.

28. * I was kind of worried when things started to glitch, here is just one of the
many that started to occur. Thankfully they stopped after a day or two : *

29. The carpool dude over the last few days has gotten beyond creepy. I think
after today I am going to start driving to work. I felt him touch my bottom as I
got out of the car today. Not cool. I reported it to Samantha since she is who
I have to report to. She ensured me she would speak to the principle about
it. Still I am going to take the car, that way it won't happen again.

30. *Else where in Pleasentview*
Unknown: Juan Le Fromp you have been very important to us your whole
career, you may be thinking why have we sent you to Pleasentview, what's in
Pleasentview for you to do?
Juan: Ye-
Unknown: DO NOT INTRUPT ME. As I was saying. Pleasentview doesn't
require you to fill anything in to join the Law Enforcement here, Heck this
place doesn't even need to know your name to let you in, they believe
everyone here is honest and trustworthy. But what is there for you do to for
us joining Law Enforcement, it is the opposite to what you already do hey.
You will work your way up through the ranks and become a Hero to
Pleasentview, when you do you will gain trust and be given access to some of
the most top secret files. After that, you will return to France and deliver this
information. You will need to fit in and seem normal, don't give them a
reason to check you over. Get a family, but don't get attached you hear. Do
you think you will be able to do this Juan?
Juan:...... Piece of cake.

31. Samantha came over again. She is still bugging me about getting a house
mate. I found someone quite decent surprisingly in the paper
'Juan, 20, French, looking for room. I am quite the handy man, I fix anything
and everything needed. Contact me at.....' He seems perfect. Plus it would be
a good experience to meet someone from a different country!

32. I will be swapping between Juan's and Bella's point of view with
dialog, hope it doesn't get to messy *
** Juan **
I walk up to a humble looking apartment. The woman on the phone
sounded nice enough, easily to fool and doesn't have anyone living with
her, I am guessing single too then. I carry my suitcase, full of clothes my
boss brought me to fit in, I am not looking forward to seeing what he has
chosen.

33. *Bella's POV*
Oh my, why am I so nervous. It's just a house mate, nothing big you know?!
Oh my here he is, I hope I look alright!
Bella: Hi, welcome, want me to take your bags? Are you hungry? I will show
you your room! Smooth, Just burp everything out. So embarrassing.
*Juan*Wow, she's pretty also nervous I see. I guess I have to be nice.
Juan: Hi, it's fine it's pretty heavy I can take it, what ever you have cooked
smells nice I would love some and you can show me after we have eaten if
you'd like?
*Bella*
Thank god he is nice, I guess he can tell I am beyond nervous. Oh wow, I'm
just talking staring at him say something stupid!
Bella: Uhh sure, kitchen is this way.

34. That night Phoenix rang my door bell, I was surprised he knew where I lived.
I went out and before I could say a thing he put his hand up turned around
and left. That was weird, I just need to get over him. But it hurts, ahh why
does it hurt. I run inside to the lounge sobbing.

35. **Phoenix actually did that every time she tried speaking to him it was so
strange. I also noticed this bad boy as a tattoo ahahaha, :') **

36. As I walked inside, Juan jumped up off the couch and without hesitation he
started to comfort me and do you know what, he did a pretty good job at it
too. We spoke for hours about everything and anything. I had lost track of
time I thought it was around 10:00 it was actually 01:00. I found out how he
wanted a family, spoke of out hobbies his tinkering and mine cooking and
how he wanted to join the force.

37. Then it happened, we kissed. It was much and didn't last long but we kissed.
It felt like fireworks going off, I swear I could hear bells in my head. He was
the one I had been looking for.
*Juan POV*
I didn't mean for it to happen, I did but not so soon. I thought I would take a
few months at least but it didn't.

38. She pulled away, she was grinning but I could tell she was confused at the
same time, she just looked me in the eyes then said 'Night Juan'. I sat on the
couch and looked at the window wondering what was to come from this
and what would happen. I managed to push it out my mind and started to
think of how I was to get into Law Enforcement. It was something I would
have to work out tomorrow.

39. I woke up early the next morning and unsure of what to do I went and had a
shower and went and sat on the couch and started watching television.
Next thing I knew Billy-Bella, Bella she told me to call her came and sat next
to me on the couch. It was odd but we managed to start talking
Bella: What have you got planned for today?
Her voice was soft and sweet, I hadn't noticed this before.
Juan: Uhm, I was going to try and join Law Enforcement but I am not to sure
of how to since it is new country and all.
Bella: Just write up an application and I will send it in for you when I get
home, I'm off to work now so I guess we will speak later.

40. *Bella's POV *
I wonder what will happen when I get home after I send in his application, oh
I hope things work out for us. I really think we could actually have something.
No. I must, I must take this slowly. I will not get attached again, I will take my
time. I won't be hurt again.

41. I wonder what Juan's going to get up to whilst I am out. Writing his
application will take him what all of 30minutes maybe? There isn't a lot to do
in the house.
*Juan's POV*
I must be up to my maximum fitness, I am not weak. I am going to succeed in
this assignment and then return to France to the friends and work mates I
know. Who knows maybe this will earn me an early retirement.

42. I wasn't expecting Bella home and when she rocked up I had just gotten back
from evaluation the town and working out. She asked me about what I was
wearing and where I had been. I must admit it was quite suspicious. But my
training got me out of it, I came up with I had been doing touristy things
around the town. She brought it. After sending my application the next thing
I knew, we were in bed together. This woman, she is really hard to resist, I
can not get to close to her, in the end I will have to leave her.

43. *Bella's POV*
It was finally the weekend, Juan has gone somewhere I am not to sure, but it
isn't up to me anyways, we aren't even going out. The land lord Oliver Howe
knocked on my door and told me the neighbors were having a get together
and that he would supply pizza. Mmm Pizza I could go for that I thought, so I
agreed and went outside and introduced myself to my neighbor Sandy
Fairchild. I had a blast mucking around with them, Oliver seemed to
interested in me at times. Maybe he is just being friendly..

44. All of a sudden I didn't feel well. I ran inside, up the stairs, into the bathroom
and stuck my head into the toilet and to put it nicely emptied the contents of
my stomach. It hit me, I was pregnant. How was I suppose to tell Juan, we
aren't even together! How will he react? Will he leave me? I guess if worse
came to worse I would be able to raise the child on my own, I have the
experience but I raised four instead of just one.

45. I went outside and Sandy seemed still standing puzzled from where I left
her, I explain everything and she seemed to be able to help me, although she
admitted to having no idea what I was going through since she had never
met a guy she liked and put everything she had into her work. I guess it is the
lifestyle some people preferred.

46. I after that I was feeling hungry again and decided to help myself to some
more Pizza, but when I turned around I was stunned to find Juan grabbing a
slice. How does he always seem to appear and disappear with out me
noticing, it is baffling I say.

47. He ate his Pizza like he had never had any before, It was quite amusing but I
knew I had to speak to him about what had happened earlier. I was just
going to put it off until we both went inside later. Sandy left and as she did
she gave me the look of ' you have put it off long enough time to man up
and do it'. It was the little nudge I needed to go inside and talk to Juan
about it.

48. I explained everything to him, he nodded as I got on with the story which I
was struggling to get out. He didn't freak out like I expected. He admitted he
was shocked but would understand what ever choice I made. I told him that I
wouldn't get rid of the baby. Then the unexpected came out.
Juan: Well then, If you want to. Will you marry me?
I was gob smacked.
Bella: Are you sure? You don't have to feel obligated to marry me just
because I am pregnant
.Juan: I don't, I was planning on asking you anyways. Not so soon obviously
but there is no time like the present.
Bella: Then, yes. Yes I will marry you.

49. A couple of years ago I was running from being married and having a
family, but it wasn't my choice to be married and now I am choosing to. I am
getting married and having my first child. It has been several months since
Juan asked me and he has been supportive ever since. Now we are getting
married in our now spare room, since we share mine now. We are already
like a family. I will admit it is fast I know, but since when has love ever gone
smoothly?

50. We said our vows.

51. Exchanged our rings.

52. And like that, we were married. Well, we put in permission before hand but
still. We are now Mr. and Mrs. Smith. For some reason he wanted to go with
my last name, not sure why but as long as we are together I am happy.

53. A few weeks later, my pregnancy started showing quite obviously. The doctor
told me I was more at risk of losing the child than other mums and should
take time off work until after the babies are born. Yeah I am having twins,
both Juan and I were shocked.

54. Naturally I was quite worried about being able to raise twins, but Juan
assured me that it would all be fine and that he would help me. He has been
really quite lately though, I am starting to worry. But he assures me that he is
fine.

55. It was 08:00 in the morning and the doorbell rang, Juan was out
somewhere I'm not quite sure where because his application still hasn't
been answered, he called up they said they were still training the last
cadets and his group has to wait a few months until they can be trained.
Juan was angry for some reason and stormed out. He came home said he
didn't want to speak about it and apologized for getting angry and
storming out. I just left it. The doorbell rang again.

56. I went and answered it, Oliver walked straight in like he owned the place.
Well I guess he did..As he looked at me he seemed quite shocked to see that
I was pregnant, he didn't seem to pleased. I he was even more shocked
when I told him Juan and I got married.

57. I guess he was more than shocked. He was angry. Boys, they confuse me.
He started shouting at me it almost looked like he was going to hit me, I
panicked and became afraid for myself but mainly for my unborn
children, that's when Juan arrived back home. He placed him self between
me and Oliver and told him to get out the house before there is trouble
and like that Oliver left. I got sharp pains in my belly, Juan carried to my
bed and called the doctor. The doctor rushed over and pretty much told
Juan I was not to get out of bed for a week or two. I felt like I was being
treated like a child, neither of them told me anything and I wasn't aloud to
do anything for my self during the time I was to stay in bed.

58. Then one afternoon I saw a lady looking in around my home, she was
taking photos. It was unusual I couldn't find an explanation of why she
was. I didn't tell Juan when he got home, I just had a gut feeling not to.

59. Juan brought a violin, I'm not sure why but he did. Until he started playing I
didn't even know he could play, I don't know a lot of things come to think
of it about Juan before he moved here. I guess he doesn't know much
about me either. The next few nights after he brought it he would play for
me for a couple of hours until he whisked me up the stairs into bed.

60. As the months rolled on I began growing much larger and round. I knew any
week now it would be time for our babies to be born.

61. I was in a set housewife way, every Monday I was pay the rent and other
electricity and water bills. Go through the weekly junk mail and see what
was on special to buy down at the market. But this Monday I felt
funny, everything felt funny, I knew something was going to happen I just
didn't know what.

62. I started to feel faint and then next thing I knew Oliver picked me up and
carried me inside, I didn't stop him I was to weak.

63. He placed me on my couch, I jolted up and ran to the phone. I knew what
was happening, It was time for my babies to be born. I ran Juan I told him
he said he would be home soon and to get Sandy to come over. I explained
how she was at work but Oliver was there. He just replied with "I will be
there soon, I-I... I love you" he had never said that to me before, but I knew
he meant it.

64. The pain was intense.

65. It was the worst pain I had ever felt in my life. I told my self I am never
having more children.

66. Oliver had no clue what to do, I just wanted Juan home to help me, he had
been reading books many books preparing him self for this moment. But I
knew, by the time he got home it would have already be over.

67. First out was my beautiful baby boy, Juan and I had never spoken about
names, so I just called him Billy-James. Billy from my name and James my
little brothers name. I never spoke about it but I did miss my siblings, they
would be teenagers now.

68. Then I had my little girl, they both had dark hair from Juan but my hazel eye
colour. Billy- Jane was her name, there wasn't any meaning behind her
name. It was just what came out of my mouth, so I stuck with it.

69. Little did I know Juan had actually built items for the nursery.
*Juan's POV*
I have a family, the love of my life. It was part of the assignment but I keep
reassuring my boss that they mean nothing to me, just part of the plan. I
don't think he buys it but it is what he wants to hear anyways. He is more
caught up in the fact that I haven't yet been accepted in to Law
enforcement. I noticed we were low on funds, neither of us had been
working so I went down to the local store and brought bits and pieces, I
was better at woodwork then I expected.

70. My wife she was a natural with the kids, as for me.. the books made it
seem much more easy. But Bella reminds me she spent her whole life
looking after young ones and as soon as I will know it I will get the hang of
it. She never spoke much of her upbringing but by the sounds of things, it
wasn't easy. I never went into it with her because I know she would end up
asking about my childhood, and that's something I cannot share with her.

71. Before either of us realised the it was the twins first birthday, not much has
happened in the year since they were born, life is normal we are a family.
Bella had gone back to work and I am still awaiting reply from the force.
We have made many friends with the people in the neighborhood, I try
and not be to involved in things though. It is just safer that way.

72. *Bella's POV *
My babies are growing up so fast, next thing I know they will be starting
school and needing me less and less. Its going to be hard I know, the perk
of my job though is that I will see them also during the day.

75. *Billy James in the overalls and Billy Jane in the panda suit.*
This is all I have for the first chapter, I will get the next one out in the next
week, maybe even the third since I’m on holidays. Please leave any
suggestions and comments. I apologise for any spelling mistakes ect.
Hope you all enjoyed it xx
