First of all this is my first Fanfiction so please be gentle. I wrote this because I don't think that there are enough Bella/Emmett stories around.

I don't own these characters, S. Meyer does as well as the fact that they are veggie vamps.

Prologue

It has been almost 3 years since we moved to this dreary town. In the beginning it was nice….well as nice as it can be for a place that is under a constant cover of clouds. Being a vampire it is perfect for us, but like I stated this place is dreary and when town like this is dreary, it also means dull. Dull to the extreme.

Until she came along.

Her name is Isabella Swan, or as she likes to be called Bella Swan. At first she seemed quite and shy, especially to old Eddie boy. My older 'little' brother is a mind reader. Yep you heard it, he is a mind reader. The poor guy can't switch it off either. It's a constant influx of thoughts flowing to him from anyone and everyone within a 3 mile radius.

Until she came along.

Her quiet mind was at first frustrating for Edward. This silence made her motives and actions difficult to understand. For example, the incident with the van. Rosie was convinced that she would be a threat, but in the end Bella stayed silent. She kept our secret and although Rose was stubbornly pushing for the 'accidental' death of Bella Swan and showed Bella her obvious disdain for her, Bella remained loyal. Despite Rose's protests, Edward eventually declared his love for Bella, making most of the family relieved and happy for Edward. Rosie had always been the center of my world. In my eyes, Rose could do no wrong.

Until she came along.

We all believed that Rose would slowly warm to Bella's subtle charm, but that did not happen. Rose's unfriendly attitude towards Bella became more pronounced and eventually I refused to be around her when she was in 'Let's bitch about Bella' mode. This resulted in me spending more time hunting own my own or spending more time with the rest of the family. I really did believe that Rose was the one for me, forever and always and that hoopla. Little did I know that Rose was just a stepping stone to what my life was supposed to be…when she arrived.
