Chapter 1:
Rosalie's POV
-Rose, come on lets go or we will miss our flight.
- I'm coming, just a minute.
I finished packing my purse and ran towards the car, but as soon as I stood outside of the house I turned and took a final look at the house that had been our home for the last 5 years. I got in the car, and as soon as it started to head towards the airport I looked out the window at Rochester, the city where I was born, for the rest of the ride.
When we arrived, we did all the paperwork and headed towards the airplane that will take us to our next destination. Sitting here I can't stop wondering how Esme´s hometown will be, and how much it changed since 1650. I'm sure that right now you are wondering how it can be that since 1650 we're still alive. Well I will explain. Before starting this story you should know that my full name is Rosalie Hale Cullen. I have a body of a 17 year old and was born in Rochester in 1710. But you should also know that we aren´t any ordinary human family because we are vampires. I should start from the beginning:
Carlisle our adopted father, who also is a doctor at a hospital, was the first to be changed by a nomad. But he didn't want to be a monster so he started to hunt animals and not humans.
A few years later, he found Esme who was dying after giving birth to her son who didn't make it neither. A year later he found Edward who was dying from Spanish influenza. A few years later he found me dying on the streets and, final, one day when I was hunting, I found Emmett dying from a bear attack. Years later Alice and Jasper joined our family. Now you should know that every vampire has a mate and a few ones are given a gift, also known as a talent. For example, Carlisle and Esme are mates and they act as our adopted parents but they're not gifted. Alice and Jasper are mates and they go to school as the rest of us kids. Alice has the ability to see the future and Jasper to sense and manipulate emotions. Then, there is Edward, who hasn't found yet his mate and has the ability to read minds and also goes to school. And final, there is Emmett and me who are mates and attend school. Emmett doesn't have a gift, but I am gifted with a gift very rare and still until today has never worked. I can see ghosts and since it doesn't work I consider that I don't have any gift. But Carlisle always tells me not to lose hope.
Anyway, back to the story. A few years ago, Carlisle decided that each five years we will live in the hometown of a family member and that is why, in this precise moment, we are heading towards Forks, Washington, Esme's hometown. Only he, Carlisle and Edward have seen it. You will be wondering why Edward knows Forks. Well that's simple; years ago Edward had enough and decided to leave. He stayed two years in Forks and then left and returned home.
-Ladies and gentlemen we will soon be arriving so please fasten your seatbelts.
As soon as she said that, I started to feel my seat chacking. I turned towards Emmett and glared, he stared at me with an innocent smile and said:
-What? I 'm just exited to finally see a town named after a utensil.
-Well, that makes one because it looks like not everybody is as happy as you are.
-What are you talking about?
- Well just take a look at Edward. Since we left he hasn't said a word and just looks out the window.
As soon as I said that, all the family turned towards Edward who acted as if nobody was there.
-Jasper, what are you so confused over?
- It's just that Edward's feelings. They are confusing.
-What do you mean?
- It's just that he is feeling pain, lost, anger and self-hatred.
I was just about to ask Edward what was going on but Emmett interrupted me.
-Well, will just have to see what will happen and that will be in less than a minute.
As soon as he finished he went and looked towards the window where you could already see the ground. We landed; we took our baggage and headed towards the parking where our car was. After a two hour drive we arrived in front of a house that looked like a mansion, it was three story house that was surrounded by trees since it was in the middle of the forest and had a view of a lake. It resembled a house taken from a fairy-tale. Esme looked as she was crying, so she ran to Alice and hugged her with all her mite.
-Oh, Alice thank you so much, I don't know how I could ever repay you, I will always be grateful.
-Esme, it's the least that I could do after everything you have done for us.
She said as she hugged Esme back, after their little breakdown they untangled there self and we all headed towards the house.
