Bella's POV

With the summer just starting, I had hoped to be able to stay home and read but no, we had to go the lake. There was no real point in me going. I had tried to convince my dad, Charlie to let me stay behind but he wouldn't have it. Emmett, on the other hand was excited that we were finally done with school. He knew his girlfriend Rose was going to be there so that was the main reason for his excitement.

"Bella," he came from behind and helped lift my suitcase into the back. He was always protective and helped me out when I needed; he was the lovable big brother everyone wanted. Emmett was one of those tall athletic boys that all the girls wanted but he always made time for me. We hung out almost every night; I was always put in front of everything else in his life.

"I can't wait. A whole summer at the lake," he laughed. I did a double take.

"The Whole Summer?!" I screamed and stomped inside to find Charlie, only stumbling once but Emmett had stopped me from falling. I kept walking toward Charlie, his face angry and glaring at Emmett.

"You weren't supposed to tell her." He mumbled through his clenched teeth. Emmett smiled and walked out to the car.

I walked after him. It was a losing battle; I would have to stay all summer no matter how much I begged. As I reached Emmett he jumped into the passenger seat. I shook my head and went to the back. At least I would have room to sleep. Charlie locked up the house and walked over to the car. He put the rest of his stuff in before starting the car.

"You have everything?" he asked turning his head slightly to look at Emmett.

"Why do you always look at me?" Emmett replied and leaned his seat back so he was staring at the roof of the car.

Half way to the lake, which was only a two hour drive, Emmett was hungry and he forgot to pack food. Charlie kept driving with a smirk on his face while Emmett was clutching his stomach. I fell to sleep and was woken up when I realized we were at the lake.

It was beautiful; there were evergreens near our cabin that was overlooking the lake. You could see an island in the distant. I looked around to see the other houses but all I could see was four or five of them.

"The rest of the cabins are through the trees. We're in a more secluded area." Charlie said noticing my confusion. I nodded and walked toward the cabin with my bags. Emmett was nowhere in sight. Where was he when I really needed him?

I made my way in slowly because the cabin had to be on the stupid hill and I tripped twice. As I walked into the cabin, I looked to see how expensive all the stuff was. In the living room there was a 50 inch plasma TV. The couches were black leather surrounding the TV and fireplace area. The kitchen was in the back, an island separating them. The stairs were on the side as soon as you walked in. I picked the bedroom at the end of the hall; there were five so I didn't think it mattered. I placed my stuff down in the middle, and walked toward the balcony. While looking outside I saw Emmett playing football with blonde hair boy. He was almost as tall as Emmett.

I walked out to the yard they were playing in. Emmett saw me and ran over to pick me up. He placed me on his back and carried me over to the blonde boy. I noticed there was a bronze hair boy sitting under a tree nearby. He was watching us but he looked down as soon as I noticed him. For the 

moment that our eyes connected, there was a connection. His bright green eyes were sparkling in the sunlight.

"Jasper this is my sister, Bella." Emmett said and placed me on the ground.

"Hello Bella," Jasper said as a small girl came over and wrapped her arms around his waist and he put it on her shoulders.

"I'm Alice!" the girl said. She was short, a little shorter than me. Her hair was brown color with purple streaks. "Bella, want to go for a walk or something?" she asked. I nodded and we went toward the lake. We talked about everything and I learned a lot about her and she got to know me. Jasper and her had been dating for about two years, they met through Emmett and Rose, who was Jasper's twin sister.

We finally headed back toward the cabins when it was twilight. There was a campfire around and all the adults went to the other island. I sat down on the log next to Emmett and Rose. She waved to me. Rose was always nice to me. I noticed the same bronzed hair boy sitting next to Alice and Jasper. Emmett and Jasper grilled as the girls went inside to get the plates.

After we were done eating, we sat there in silence before Alice said, "We should play truth or dare!"
