This is my first time publishing my work so feedback is completely welcomed.
Family is complicated and that's the only thing it will ever be. They could be the ones' to lift you up or tear you down, and in my experience it is usually the latter.
I have been residing with the Cullen's for only a week now and yet they have already began to challenge my theory. Since the moment I meet them they have started to execute a vicious attack on the defensive wall's I had set up to spare my emotion's, and yet it is not with the typical weapons they attack but with kind words and doting actions. I would be a liar if I were to say that the Cullen's behaviors were not greatly appreciated, but it makes me feel weak because one of my deeply instilled philosophy is that kindness is only a facade.
My inner ramblings were interrupted by a sudden knock at my door. A mannerism that was a bit foreign to me; few have paid such respect to my personal space.
"Come in" I said, the door opened further to reveal the patriarch of the household, Dr. Carlisle Cullen.
" Harry if you're up for it I would like to do the examination we talked about." Carlisle stated in mix between a father's and doctor's tone of voice.
Due my internal debate it had completely slipped my mind that I had a prior engagement today, and I don't mean to brag but I have an IQ 188, forgetting is not something I usually do.
" Yeah sure, I wasn't really doing anything anyways." Aside from questioning you family true motives.
As me and Carlisle walked down to corridor that lead to his in-home examination room, I noticed that the rest of the Cullen's were not in the vicinity.
Just as I was making the observation, Carlisle started to speak " Esme and the kids went out to give us some privacy, so please feel free to speak openly on your medical background."
I knew it, they didn't give me all those diplomas for nothing. " No problem Doc, but they didn't have to leave on my account" I stated.
We reached to door to the examination room, just as I finished. " Oh, it was no big deal Harry, they know how important this examination is for your health." Carlisle replied effortlessly.
There is was again, as I sit on Carlisle's examination table, the renowned Cullen kindness that healed old wounds yet opened them at the same time.
Halfway through Carlisle's examination, I started to zone out. I found myself thinking of my first interactions' with the Cullen's.
Esme's kindheartedness
" Harry, dear I want you to feel right at home here, so please don't hesitate to ask if you want something."
Carlisle's benevolent demeanor
" I hope that you will, allow us to welcome you into our family."
Rosalie's unbridled scrutiny,
" I hope this doesn't come back to bit us in the ass,"
yet cordial welcome
" but, I'm glad you're here."
Emmett's comedic outlook
" Hey, squirt can you tell me what Gandalf's like in person?"
Jasper's cautious approach
" It's a pleasure to have you here, Harry. I hope it all works out for the best."
A joy filled response from Alice
" I've seen so many wonderful things, Harry, I just can't wait. Just think of all the clothes, we could get."
And, of course Edward's casual greeting
" Harry, I think I speak for all of us when I say we're delighted to have you here."
I was all so flawless and light-hearted, that part of me was completely enthralled in a matter of minutes, yet another part of me was sickened by the serenity of it all.
