I came up with this idea well reading 'bellanessiecullen's' Living in paradise, but this is nothing like it. R&R

Summery: Emmett and Isabella McCarty were on a cruse ship when they were kids. The ship sank, Emmett made it out, and Isabella didn't make it out in time...so everyone thought. Instead Isabella landed on an island with two adults and a green eyed boy. What happens nine years latter when Emmett finds out there is a chance she could still be alive, and he comes looking for her with his wife. What happens when they get lost at sea too?

Rated k+

Disclaimer: I am only going to do this once for the whole story so here it goes. I do not own Twilight Saga (I wish I did) It all belongs to Stepheine Meyer. Only my idea's and characters I may create belong to me.

I opened my eyes and blinked at the bright light from the sun. I could taste sand in my mouth, my throat was very dry, and my clothes were damp. I was on shore somewhere...I was sure I had drowned, just like the ship.

"Your awake I see," I heard a women say.

I slowly opened my eyes only to have small green ones looking down at me. He looked nice enough, around Emmett's age, 12 or 13, with windblown bronze hair. I looked at the lady that I heard speak, she was at the edge of the trees, about 10 yards away, and was clearly the boy's mother. She had the same color hair, just curly, and it was kind of hard to see her eyes, but I'm going to take a guess and say that they were also green.

I opened my mouth to speak, but no words came out. The women seamed to understand my problem right away. She walked over to me with a glass of water. "Here is some water, sweetheart," she smiled at me as I sat up, took the water and chugged it down with one swallow.

"Thank you," my voice was rough, but at least I could talk now.

The women now stood over the boy her hands on both of his shoulders, which looked kind of weird because his head was up to her chin. "Your very welcome," the women told me with a smile, I could tell this lady was very nice. "My name Elizabeth Mason, and this is my son Edward, what's your name?"

I thought about that, I didn't like to be called Isabella, and not Izzy anymore, that would bring back to many painful memories. But Bella worked, "Bella McCarty," I smiled I liked the sound of that.

"Well, Bella," Elizabeth said. "It is very nice to meet you, but I wish it was under better circumstances." I nodded, I wished Emmett was here with me, he always knew how to make me feel better. "Do you mind telling me how you got here?"

I had to come up with a story, or at least not mention my big brother. I decided with that idea, "I was on cruse ship, when the ship started sinking, I don't know how, they didn't tell any of the children. I was on the bottom deck, and started running to the top, but... I didn't make it to the boats in time. I just got got to the top deck when the ship was completely in the water. I grabbed a life jacket that was in the water and put it on. The boats were to far to catch up with, so I started swimming opposite of them hoping to find land. But I ran into some rocks, and my life jacket was torn off me. I also got this," I looked down at my leg to see a cut that was about five inches on my cafe. "I started swimming, and eventually I saw this island. I think I passed out when I was very close to it. And now I'm here."

Elizabeth gasped and bent down to my size to hug me. I thought I saw a tear coming down Edward's cheek. "That sound almost like how we got here," his voice sounded like velvet, as talked for the first time I was here.

"What?" I asked. I didn't understand. Did this happen a lot, were there more people here.

Edward seemed to understand and answered my question as if he could read my mind (An, he really can't read minds, but I just put that in there, besides the book says they get there power from a weaker gift they had as a human) "You are the only other person to wash up on this island, beside my mother, father and myself."

I nodded, Elizabeth was still trying to comfort me by saying meaningless things in my ear. I looked down at my leg, there was sand in it and it was starting to burn, and yet again Edward had an answer before a could tell them, "My father can clean that up when we take you to our house."

"Thank you," I told him and Elizabeth. Edward just shrugged and Elizabeth gave me a kiss on the forehead.

"Come on," Elizabeth told me grabbing my hand and towing me towards the woods. I followed willingly. I was tout to never go anywhere with strangers, but we the only ones on an island in the middle of nowhere.

I thought the walk to there house was never going end, by the time we got there I was so out of breath I thought I was going pass out, again. Their house was rather small, and was made out of things that could be easily found on the island, wood, leaves, brush, anything that was usable. I followed them though the door that was made of logs. I was standing in the living room, it was very simple, just three chairs made out wooden planks that were facing a window that had a bunch of leaves sewn together for curtains, and on the floor was a rug made out of brush. I followed them into what looked like a kitchen. It had a wooden table with four chairs and a stone fireplace in the corner, which had a stack of wood next to it. I then followed them down a hallway that had three wooden doors. We went past the first one and went to the second one.

"My husband, Edward, is in there," Elizabeth told me. Wasn't the boy's name Edward? Doesn't that get confusing."Just call him Eddie." so that is how they didn't confused. She opened the door for me and I stepped in. I was surprised that she didn't follow in, but Edward did.

Eddie turned to look at me. I could not see very much of him in Edward, just the fact that they were both very tall and had windblown hair. He was seated in the corner on a chair facing that facing some world maps that had some tares in them.

"Who are you?" he said getting up and walking over to me like I was a criminal. I was only nine for goodness sake.

"Iz...um, Bella," I corrected myself.

He looked at me funny, I could tell he noticed my mistake,"Are you sure?"

I nodded, "It's my name isn't it. I should know."

He gave me a look of worry then turned to Edward, "Son, his a ship landed? Why did you and your mother bring back a eight year old instead of a captain or adult for that matter." I was was angry, I was clearly a nine year old, not eight. But I was even angrier that didn't want me here, I had no where else to go.

Edward looked at Eddie and said, "No... she washed up on shore. Just like we did five years ago." Eddie then looked at me guilt spread across his face, but in the corner of his eye you could still see he didn't trust me. "She has a cut on her leg, it needs stitches." Eddie nodded, and told him to get out of the room.

He set me on the stone counter in the corner of the room and pulled out a medical bag. He started cleaning the wound out with water, "So...Bella. How about you tell me a little bit about yourself seeing as in we are going to be living together for a while." he almost growled the words 'a while.'

"I'm nine years old, my favorite color is blue, I like swimming and exploring, and..." he cut me off.

"No," he shock his head. "I don't mean things like that. I mean like your family, how you got here and things like that..." he trailed off.

"oh," I said slightly embarrassed. "umm, well my mom's name was Alexandra McCarty and my dad's name was Nathan McCarty and..." I trailed off I was about to tell him about Emmett.

"And," Eddie pushed.

I shrugged, "That's it."

He nodded clearly not convinced. "You said your parents were... what happened to them?"

"They died in a car crash, the will said that if anything were to happen to them that...I...should be sent to my mom's good friend's the Cullen's. So I went on a cruse ship that was going to where they lived and it sank." I felt tears in my eyes. I finished my story with exactly what I told Edward and Elizabeth.

He nodded as if I was just telling I liked Mac & Cheese and it was no big deal. I have known this guy for about 20 minutes and I already know I don't like him. He seamed judgmental and cranky. Kind of like mom used to be like sometimes.

Just as he finished with the stitches (which hut A LOT) Elizabeth came in and told us that dinner was ready. I followed Eddie out of his office to the table in the kitchen, but when I thought he would stop he just kept going and walked out the back door. This was the first time I saw their backyard. It was pretty, some trees were cut down and the stomps left for chairs that were around a tiny table. There were flowers a over, I wonder how I missed that on my way here.

I noticed there was a fish on the table, along with some older apples that my mom would just throw away back home.

Elizabeth caught me looking and came over to me, "It's not much but it keeps us alive." she said putting an arm around my shoulder.

I nodded, "Good thing I like fish then." she laughed as did Edward who was coming up from behind us.

The four of us sat down on the stomps and Elizabeth gave thanks then we ate. The fish was rather dry and the apples weren't the best I've ever had, but it was food and I was glad for that. By the time we were done eating it was dark outside and Eddie made a camp fire outside.

They told ghost stories that were probably the best I have ever heard. I guess you have to have something to do on an island with nothing to do.

"Alight, Edward, Bella," Elizabeth said as Eddie put the fire out. "Time for you to go to bed."

Edward groaned and I smiled, I always liked the night, even if it meant sleep, I loved the stars. On nights were I could not sleep I would just sit by the window in my room and stare at the twinkling stars. Some nights dad would catch me up at 3:00 a.m. For my ninth birthday my parent got me a projector that showed the night sky on my bedroom ceiling. I loved staring at the constellation of Hercules and for some unknown reason the big and little dipper.

"Bella...Bella," Elizabeth said bringing me out of my thoughts.

I blushed, "Yeah?"

Elizabeth laughed, "I said your name a few times and you didn't answer. Where did you go?"

Mom never asked that at night. She knew that if I was deep in thought at night it was about the stars. "Just the sky." I laughed and she joined in.

"Well," she began once we calmed down. "I was saying that we don't have a guest room yet, because we are in the middle of nowhere. So until we do you can sleep in Edward's room."

I nodded, I didn't like the thought of sharing a room with a boy, I never shared one with Emmett, but at least it was not with Eddie. I felt bad for Elizabeth. Edward started making his way inside and I followed. We went into the first door in the hallway that we skipped when I went to Eddie's office.

His room was very small just big enough for his bed and a dresser with a broken mirror on it. I noticed there was a a blanket on the floor and a flat pillow. I guess that was where I was going to sleep 'til they did my room.

"So..." he started. "This is my room... and I guess yours for awhile..." he trailed off.

"yeah," I said moving my head back and forth like I always do when the conversation gets weird.

"Sooo, goodnight," Edward said as he climbed into his bed.

That night I had trouble sleeping, so after I heard Edward's light snores I got up and carefully made my way around his bed to stand at the window. I looked at the stars when I heard voices.

"There is nothing wrong with her Eddie," I heard Elizabeth say. I knew he didn't like me. "She came here just the same way we did."

"I'm telling you Elizabeth, something is off about her," Eddie said the last part quite so I had to strain my ears to hear it.

"Well I don't think so, and if there was, what do you expect me to do?" Elizabeth started raising her voice. "Kick her out? I don't think so. Kicking a nine year old girl out because one man doesn't like her would be like kicking Edward out at that age."

I slowly made my way back to the floor where I was sleeping as I listened to the last of their conversation. "Well I guess your right, Elizabeth," Eddie said. "I still don't like her though."

"well, get used to her, because she will be here as long as we are here," Elizabeth ended the conversation by walking down the hall to Edward's room and opening the door to check on us. I closed my eyes to pretend I was sleeping. "Goodnight, Edward. Bella." she whispered closing the door. I knew a few things from that moment forward. Eddie loathed me, Elizabeth was going to somewhat like my new mother, Edward and I had some type of relationship, and that I was going to be here for most likely the rest of my life.

Questions you may have:

Does Bella think Emmett is dead? - she is not sure if he made it they were in different parts of the ship

Why doesn't Bella want the Mason's to know about Emmett? - she doesn't want to get them excited that someone might come look for them, and she doesn't trust all of them *cough* Eddie *Cough*

Why doesn't Eddie like Bella?- He doesn't know her and they are in the middle of nowhere and she's someone else he has no one to go to.

Why doesn't the Mason's just leave the island? - They have no idea where in the world the island is

Anymore questions review or PM me. R&R and I will update (-:
