Chapter One: The Last Christmas

[EPOV]

Four years ago…

My family and I sat in the living room in front of the fireplace. It was Christmas and we were just about to open our gifts.

White flakes could be seen dancing about in the cold breeze outside accompanied by the whispers of secrets gathered on their journey from the north.

My father, Carlisle, sat on the large sofa and watched our eyes widen as we took in the amount of gifts that were piled under the bright Christmas tree that stood lain down from the decorations that it held. My mother, Esme, sat on his right with a proud smile as she watched us with affectionate eyes.

We were a wealthy family fortunately, graced with good looks and kind hearts. Now I won't lie. My entire family is attractive.

My father is a good natured man with sleek blond hair. He's a doctor at the grand hospital. It's a known fact that many of the nurses there have trouble concentrating on their work when he's around.

My mother is a passionate woman with a heart filled with love for children. She has short caramel colored curls curving around her face and a petite figure. She's an interior designer and spends a lot of her time off either at home with us or in the kitchen or at orphanages, playing with the children there.

I can say with honest love that I have the best parents in the world.

My older sister, Rosalie (she's only older by a year), has our father's blond hair. It's wavy and goes down to the middle of her back. She's tall and has a body to die for. She was voted the most beautiful girl in all of middle school last year, let alone grade eight. You can say I have a busy job keeping the guys away from her.

My twin sister, Alice, is a very energetic, shopalcoholic pixie. She's only 4 feet 4" and very intimidating. I remember last year some guy told her, her shoes were out of style and the next thing we knew he didn't come to school for a month because he was too scared. Right now she's in grade eight and the high school football team is very scared of her. Talk about nerve-racking. On the outside she looks like an innocent little girl who is obsessed with fashion but really she's a persuasive pixie who scares the hell out of people when she's mad.

My family has a secret. Rosalie, Alice, and I aren't normal. We just aren't. We have special talents. Some people call them superpowers but we call them freaky abnormalities. Well at least Rosalie and I do. Alice calls them our gifts.

Rosalie is unusually beautiful and when she sings she controls lust. She can make people like her and lust for her. Alice is physic. She can see the future. Though she only see the outcomes when a person makes a decision. I have the weirdest "gift" of all. I can read minds. I know many of you who are reading this are probably like "Oh yeah! That's so cool!" or "Wicked! That's so sick! I want to read minds too!" but trust me it's not cool or wicked and you definitely don't want this ability. Trust me. Especially if you go to a school with hormonal teenage boys and slutty girls who practically undress you in their mind. Shudder.

As far as we know, our parents are perfectly normal (lucky them). Though when we were little we used think our parents did have special abilities.

I stared at the heaps of presents that littered the floor under the tree. This year my parents had gone over board. There were so many expensively gift wrapped boxes. Was there some kind of special occasion this year on Christmas?

I looked over at my sisters and saw Rosalie was staring gleefully at a long thin rectangle box that leaned against the wall. It was most likely the new full length mirror made of glass with diamond encrusting on the edges she was begging for, for the last few weeks. Alice had a smug smile on her face. That sneaky little know-it-all pixie.

"Mom? Dad?" I said, turning back to look at my beaming parents.

The looked at me questioningly.

"There's so many!" I breathed.

"They're all for you three," Carlisle said.

"We figured you guys deserved more this year," Esme added.

I nodded with tears threatening to burst out from happiness.

"Except for the ones we have for you three," Alice chimed in.

Rosalie and I nodded along.

I gathered all the presents to me in a pile around me just like every year. Alice and Rosalie had done the same.

"Can I open my presents first?" Alice chirped.

Rosalie and I exchanged a glance and nodded. We knew that if we didn't say yes tomorrow morning we would find all our new gifts broken and on the front lawn. Besides Alice always went first. That's how it had been going on for the last few years. Alice always opened Rosalie's gift and my gift first. Then I opened her gift and Rosalie's gift. Then Rosalie opened Alice's gift and mine too. After that all three of us opened the gifts we got from Carlisle and Esme. Once we did so, Carlisle and Esme would open their gifts from us.

"Yay!" Alice screamed so loud that I had to cover my ears.

"That one is front me," I told her when she picked up an emerald green package.

She ripped open the wrapping and threw it back under the tree.

It was a pair of glass stilettos she saw on TV last week and yearned so bad for it. When she called the company who was using those stilettos in their advertisement the next day they said they already sold it to someone else. She spent the next two days groaning about it. The thing was that I was the person who bought them.

"Edward! Oh my god! I can't believe it! These are the same shoes I wanted. How did you get them? Someone else already bought them," Alice gushed.

I smiled at her.

"You're not the only one who can buy shoes you know," I teased.

She gasped and pulled me into a tight hug, nearly killing me from lack of oxygen. "Thank you so much! I love you so much!"

"Open mine next!" Rosalie said.

Alice nodded and returned to her spot. She opened a sea blue package and grinned.

"I love you Rose!" Alice yelled.

"What is it?" I asked.

Rosalie and Alice were blocking their mind by screaming for joy mentally. I winced.

"A brand new 214 piece makeup set," she explained.

I just shook my head in disbelief.

Next I opened my gift from Alice. It was a box set of many CDs for my collection along with a new stereo.

"Thanks little sister," I whispered in her ear as I hugged her. Alice pulled back and pouted.

"Hey! We're twins. I'm not smaller and you're not older!" she argued.

"But I was born before you," I argued back with a smile playing on my lips.

"Only two minutes and forty-two seconds before," she snapped.

I just smirked and she stuck her tongue out at me.

"Stop arguing both of you! Edward open my gift," Rosalie said as she rolled her eyes.

I opened her gift and saw it was a set of five tickets for a race in the family at the new race track opening in town.

I grinned. Rosalie knew how much I loved speed and fast cars. I still had two and a half years till I could drive but at this track they were using new advanced technology to prevent cars from crashing off the track so that meant I could participate.

"I jumped up and pulled Rosalie into a hug. I picked her up and spun her around in the air.

"Ah!" Rosalie screamed.

I put her down and hugged her tightly.

"Thanks Rose!" I yelled in her ear, making her wince.

"You're welcome Eddie!" She said.

I frowned and she just laughed.

I told you not to call me that," I muttered irritated, which just made her laugh.

"Come on Rose! Open your presents," Alice yelled in Rosalie's ear.

"Alright! Alright! Keep your hair on," Rosalie mumbled.

Then she bent down and opened her gift from Alice which looked suspiciously like the mirror. Rosalie just sat there gaping at the inside of the box until I snapped in front of her face.

"Ah!" she screamed so loudly that all of us had to cover our ears.

"What is it?" I yelled over her. "It's just a mirror!"

"Just a mirror? Just a mirror? What are you talking about? These mirrors aren't available anywhere except Paris! How cool is that?" Rosalie said and I just rolled my eyes.

After that Rosalie opened my present. It was an exclusive purse that she was drooling over two weeks ago when she saw it at the shop. Though she wasn't allowed to buy it because Alice had borrowed her credit card and used up the limit (which was the amount a normal person would spend on shopping in total in two years). I decided to buy it for her since she wanted it so much and I didn't know what to buy her for Christmas.

"Rose? Alice? Edward?" Carlisle called softly from behind us.

We turned and saw they were holding three small square boxes wrapped in navy silk and each tied by a light blue silk ribbon.

"Come hear please," Esme said and we stepped forward. She gave use the box and we opened it slowly, not knowing what to expect.

Rosalie held hers up and we saw it was a large pendant necklace with the Cullen coat of arms on it. A small smile crept its way onto Rosalie's lips as she examined it closely. Alice held hers up and I saw it was a silk ribbon that would go around her neck. On the front she would cross the two ends and hold them together by a large oval with the Cullen coat arms that was already attached to one end of the ribbon.

I looked at mine and saw it was a single bracelet. It was one of those bracelets that were thin and wide. It was made of some kind of metal or silver. The Cullen coat of arms was carved on it.

"Originally we were supposed to give to you when you turned eighteen but we have decided to give it to you now. Every Cullen must have a piece of jewelry with the Cullen coat of arms. However now it is yours. Protect it with your life young ones for it is who you are," Carlisle explained.

I nodded while keeping my eyes on the bracelet. To tell you the truth the bracelet looked really manly.

After a few tears and hugs the three of us grabbed our gift for Esme and Carlisle. When they opened it they were really quiet and stared at it for quite a while.

"Do you like it?" Alice asked timidly.

Our gift to them was a large painting to hang in the living room, above the mantel. We had hand painted it ourselves. It was a painting of our family sitting under a tree together.

"No," Esme murmured and our faces fell. They didn't like it. Was it really that bad?

"We love it," Carlisle murmured.

My face shined with happiness and I was sure Rosalie's and Alice's were too.

All three of us threw ourselves at them for a hug. There in my family's arms I felt safe. Safe from any unknown danger. If someone told me before that my family was going to be torn apart forever very soon and there was nothing I could do to prevent it, I would've held them tighter, to remember them and this moment forever.
