my second family ch.1

Jacob and I were walking through the woods he just turned 8 and he just told me a really cool story about the "cold ones". Jacob was so mad at me for sticking up for the vampires. I said that they were trying to be good, but no Jacob liked the wolves. he was so mad at me all day because of that.

I thought he was finally forgiving me as we walked through the woods. its was pretty far away from home. I would say about an hour walk. as we continued to walk Jacob suddenly pushed me down and ran away yelling "I hope they find you and you'll see why the wolves are better." I couldn't believe he left me for dead. even if it was just a legend it was still wrong. I sat there crying for a while when I heard footsteps coming close to me.

"are you ok?" a tall man with bronze hair gold eyes and pale skin said.

"N..n...n..no." I sobbed

"what are you doing out here?" a small pixie like girl with dark hair gold eyes and pale skin asked

"Jacob pushed me down and left...left me here" I sobbed even more

"Alice look at all the cuts on her arm and legs, I think we should get her to Carlisle." alike didn't answer but she was picking me up into her arms. I didn't realize all the cuts I had on me. her arms were cold but they felt good on my cuts. I sighed and relaxed into her arms. for some reason I felt safe here.

I must have fallen asleep because when I woke up my face felt very tingly like I had put my head out of the window in the car. we were in front of a big house with so many windows. Alice put me down so I could walk. she held my hand and lead me into the very bright house. it smelled like lilacs. it was so sweet. I saw that there was another women who was so gorgeous. she had blonde hair gold eyes and pale skin just like everyone in the room. she was holding hands with a very big and muscular guy who smiled at me. I laughed and blushed. he laughed to, but his was booming. then a tall lean man with blonde hair came into the room. he looked very pained. but he looked at Alice and smiled.

Alice turned to me and took me up the stairs to who I'm guessing is Carlisle. We walked into the room and another blonde beautiful man was sitting at a desk. "Carlisle could you look at Bella for me." wait how did she know my name? Carlisle shook his head and came next to me and picked me up and put me up on his table.

"hello Bella, how did you get these cuts?" he asked very politely

"I fall down a lot." I could feel the blood rush to my face. Alice was standing beside me comforting me and the beautiful blonde was standing in the door staring at me. this made me blush even deeper.

all of a sudden I felt a sting on my leg and I screamed." Shh. its ok its just the peroxide." it was the blonde lady. she was rubbing my back. I looked up at her and smiled. Carlisle finished putting a lot of bandages on me and lifted me off the table. steadying me as I tried to walk.

"be careful Bella." Carlisle said

"ill try." I blushed

"she will be fine, promise" Alice smiled. Alice and the blonde lady grabbed my hand and lead me down the stairs where another lady was waiting. she was small and had Carmel colored hair. everyone else I've seen were there. they were all sitting in their kitchen, which looked barely touched.

I looked around at everyone and it hit me. it was them. the vampires. I felt shock go through my body and I went rigid. everyone looked at me. I suddenly felt a rush of calm and I welcomed it. I went and sat down in one of the chairs. Carlisle spoke up and said "I should introduce my family. I'm Carlisle and this is my wife Esme" he pointed to the small beautiful lady. "this is Alice and her husband jasper." he pointed to the pixie and the blonde male. "this is Rosalie and her husband Emmett" he pointed to the blonde lady and the big guy. "and this is Edward." he pointed to the beautiful bronze haired guy. "and you are?"

"I'm Bella." everyone waved hello to me. I smiled and blushed. they all smiled back to me. I realized that I was sitting next to Alice and Edward. for some reason I felt safe here too even with my knowledge of what they were. I looked up at Carlisle and saw that he looked no older than 25 and he was the oldest. then Edward looked like he was 17 and he looked the youngest. I knew when I finally realized they all had pale white skin did the realization that they were vampires. at first I was confused and then I felt excited. I saw jasper and Edward look at me funny. I laughed. I was for once happy. Everyone looked at me confused. I laughed "I maybe only 9 but I know what is going on here." each one looked at me confused except Alice and Edward. they looked at me with horror. I explained deeper "Jacob told me one of his tribal stories today. one of their handed down myths. you fit it perfectly, don't worry I wont tell." Alice smiled at me and came and hugged me. she then ran upstairs at inhuman speed. it was definitely them.

Alice came back down with a shirt and a pair of jeans for me to change into. "go change into this in this room. these clothes are stained." she smiled at me and pointed me in the direction of the room. I went into the room and I realized it was a music room there was a piano in the middle. I pushed one of the keys down and the sound echoed through out the house. I decided I shouldn't touch it if it isn't mine so I got dressed. when I came out they were all whispering. I walked back to my seat and sat down.

"thank you Alice." she smiled at me and started to mess with my hair. I just sat there. it felt so good for someone to care about me. I could see jasper and Edward smile. Everyone else was staring at me. "why do you keep staring at me?"

"how are you keeping so calmed?" jasper blurted out.

I stared at him. how did he know how I felt? "I feel safe around here. and if something was to happen it would of already happened...how did you know how I felt?"

"I'm sorry, but I can feel people's emotions and make people feel them too."

"oh. so you and Edward can feel how I feel?"

jasper laughed. "he wished he could do this!"

Edward growled at jasper and said "no I can read minds with the exception of you."

that just confused me more. then Alice spoke "I can see the future based on your decisions."

I realized. "Oh so that's how you knew my name. and how I like jeans and t-shirts." Alice continued to play with my hair.

"Even though you would look so much better in a blue dress." she started to rant.

Carlisle interrupted her by saying "I think we should call and tell your parents where you are." my heart dropped in my gut. I froze.

Jasper and Edward looked at me with concerned eyes. "I forgot about them. they are going to be so mad. or maybe they wont even notice that I've been gone."

Carlisle handed me his phone "I doubt that, here dial the number and I will explain what happened." I dialed the number and handed the phone back to Carlisle. it rang 3 times when I could her my mother pick up. she was drunk. "ms..."I mouthed swan,"..swan, we have found your daughter."

I could hear my mom yell for my dad, "Charlie! get over here. they found her. I cant believe that you let her out of the house" they started to argue, and on the phone too. I blushed and frowned, this was nothing new to me. I started to cry. I felt Alice and Rosalie trying to comfort me.

Carlisle waited a minute while they were yelling at each other. Carlisle finally interrupted by saying, "would you like us to drop off Bella later?" I guess they didn't hear him because he repeated it twice.

"thank you" my mom said and the line went dead. that really made the water works come.

"honey whets wrong?" Rosalie cooed.

"they don't care. you could of kidnapped me and the wouldn't even notice. they didn't ask who you were, were you lived, if I was still alive, or when they will get me back. I'm sorry about what you heard on the phone. they always fight like that."

Rosalie and Alice both hugged me. Alice said "don't worry everything is going to be ok. you are probably going to stay they night."

"where will I sleep and where will you sleep?" I thought they slept in coffins.

Edward laughed" we don't sleep."

Carlisle chimed in, "we have a place upstairs. its probably best if you stay in Edward's room." I smiled. For once a peaceful night of sleep. I heard a chuckle from Edward and him whisper something to Emmett and jasper. alice smacked him in the back of the head. I looked at them confused but i laughed at alice, she looked like she couldn't hurt a fly. but i knew she has hunted animals before.

i knew that i was really lucky to be here. "thank you so much" i started to cry again." this means so much to me. thank you again." i smiled at each one of them. Carlisle called back my parents and asked if i could just stay the night. they of course said yes and went back to arguing. i was glad i was here instead of home.

that night they wanted to keep me preoccupied so we played many games. we played go fish, I won, monopoly alice won, then i saw a couple of matches of checkers and chess. that was interesting to watch. when alice and Edward played no one moved. after moving 2 pieces and 3 min later alice knocked over her king. nobody wanted to play edward so i got to play him next. i was not to bad at chess but i still couldn't beat him. now shoots and ladders was a different story. i won the game. which shocked everyone. no one has ever beaten edward they told me. i started to yawn and alice dragged me to her bathroom. i took a shower and put on the pajamas alice had laid out. it had been a long day.

edward lead me to his room and opened his door. he had a black leather couch on the left side of the room. it had a golden blanket and pillow on there. i ran and jumped on the couch laughing, this was the best day ever. i could hear edward chuckling behind me. i forgot for a moment he was here. i stopped laughing and blushed. I had never let anyone but Jacob see me happy. he stopped laughing too. he was staring at me with caring eyes and a smile on his lips." goodnight Bella sweet dreams" and under his breath i heard him whisper something that sounded like Romeo and Juliet.

I couldn't look away. i blushed again. "goodnight Edward."

he smiled and pulled the covers up to my shoulder. i smiled back and layer my head down. as soon as my head touched the pillow i went into a deep sleep. that night for once i had a peaceful dream about me staying here with my new second family
