Tanya's point of view:
I looked up from Pride and Prejudice in a failed attempt to concentrate. I had read the same line five times and still hadn't comprehended what it was saying. My mind kept on wandering to the people who would be arriving - judging by the sound of their car motor – in about five minutes.
The Cullen's had come a couple of times before. But that was before the new girl had joined their coven. I always tried to strike up a conversation with Edward, Carlisle's "son", but he would only respond with as short of answers as possible. I wasn't sure about the new girl, Rosalie.
Irina was not new to our coven, but new to our "vegetarian" ways. She was rarely home when the Cullen's came because she was always out hunting. This was the first time she would actually properly meet them. I tugged at my strawberry blonde curls with worry, a habit I developed when I was younger. Irina was one of the most beautiful vampires I had ever seen. There was no telling of how Edward would react to her beauty. As you could probably tell, I've had a secret crush on him.
My thoughts were interrupted when I heard quiet footsteps on the front porch. Everyone in my coven but Irina dashed to the front entryway to greet our guests. I threw open the door before they had a chance to knock. The first thing I saw was his perfect face framed in the doorway. For a moment I was speechless, my mind went blank at his flawlessness.
"Hello, Tanya," his velvet smooth voice said. He and the rest of his family filed through the door and into the living room.
"Hello, Edward," I replied although it was too late to hear me because I barely mouthed the words. I closed the door and followed the rest of my family in the room.
I took my seat across from the Cullen's and got my first good look at Rosalie. She was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen in my life; even more beautiful than Irina, which was VERY hard to accomplish. It was a wonder that Edward hadn't fallen for her.
All of our golden eyes turned towards the staircase as we heard Irina's soft footsteps while she descended the staircase. There she walked in all of her glory. She looked like a supermodel. Each step that she took was so graceful that it left us all awestruck. Her brunette curls bounced with every stair she walked down, not to mention it was shining so bright that it might've blinded the average human being. And, of course, she was wearing the latest fashion. I glanced at Edward to see his reaction. It was not what I expected. He looked… bored?
Irina took her seat beside me. I turned back to face the front. I leaned in toward Irina. "A little too dramatic," I whispered, though, I knew everyone could still hear me. Everyone began laughing. Even Edward. Soon, it all died down and we were all smiling. Edward's lopsided grin was absolutely adorable. I guess my little crush is a little bigger than little.
