In The Arms of a Cullen…
This story will only contain the Cullen men not the women. This is a story of comedy and drama. Carlisle takes in his best friend's daughter as there is no one else to take her in. The Cullen's are longtime friends of the Swans. She's 12 when they take her in. However as the years progress Bella starts to blossom and Carlisle starts to notice his sons taking a bit too much interest and notice in this. Carlisle finds himself having to watch them like hawks and is constantly having to knock them upside the head. Things only get worse once his sons and Bella start high school together and Carlisle not only finds himself having to watch his own sons but that of the Quileute's as well. He's begun to think of Bella like his own daughter and when he tries to use the sister approach on the boys they won't hear of it… (FYI still vampire and wolves as the characters) As always my stories are rated MATURE for a reason such as language, violence and slight lems. You've been warned.
It's ok hun you can come out now. She whimpers out as she sees the familiar face peeking below. Come on Isabella dear I'm taking you home with me. The tears streak down her cheeks as Mr. Cullen takes her hand and pulls her out from beneath the bed. He cradles her into his chest as she hides her face from the police men surrounding her house and asking Mr. Cullen questions.
"We'll need to ask her some questions…"
"Please hasn't she been through enough!" Jasper snaps.
"Relax son it's protocol. They're just doing their job."
"She's just a kid what could they possibly benefit from her." Edward hisses.
"Emmett take them home I'll be there shortly."
Emmett nods and leans over and whispers.
"It'll be ok baby girl you'll see."
Bella nods shyly but keeps her face buried into their father's chest.
Chapter 1 (don't own anything only wish) Read and Review please thank you!
One year later…
"What's wrong Bella dear?"
Carlisle asks as she comes in from school and throws down her bag.
"They hate me!"
Emmett laughs and Carlisle cuts him a look.
"I seriously doubt that my dear who could possibly hate you?"
"Everyone!" She pouts plopping herself down on the couch as Jasper pulls her into his chest comforting her.
"They call me pasty and Mike keeps kicking my chair and Jessica makes fun of me. I hate them!"
Edward raises a brow his father's way.
"You shouldn't say something like that Bella we don't hate."
"Why not they're jerks!"
Emmett laughs shaking his head. Carlisle clears his throat looking to him.
"What? The kid's got a point."
"You're not helping…"
"Oh I was supposed to be?"
Carlisle sighs shaking his head.
"What about Angie and Eric?"
"They're nice."
"Then just hang out with them hun and don't care so much what others think."
"Mike called me a smart ass right in front of everyone today it was so humiliating"
This time Edward was the one to laugh. He knew Bella had a touch of wits about her and he was sure it drove other students mad when she could put them in their place he was sure that's what was going on. She probably put Mike in his place. He thinks to himself.
"Language Bella dear."
"But Carlisle he really said it!"
"I do not deny that he did I just don't want to see our young lady picking up such bad habits."
Bella nods and pulls away from Jasper.
"I told you to quit that Jasper!"
"Sorry darlin' but you were upset."
"Ugh, Don't use your creepy thing on me ok!"
"Creepy?"
"Yes it's weird."
Carlisle's the one to laugh this time.
"You're weird." Jasper snaps back with a wink.
"UGH!"
"He's just joshing you baby girl calm down."
Bella bites her lower lip shaking her head. She then stands up and grabs her bag and storms off to her room. They all look to one another shaking their heads.
"Fun isn't she?"
Emmett says looking to the stairs.
"She's a teenage girl it's to be expected." Carlisle says in thought starting her supper.
"You boys go on and hunt."
They jump up and dash out the doors.
Bella does her homework then comes down the stairs. She's got her headphones on as she sits down. Carlisle sighs and takes them off her head.
"You know how I feel about that…"
"But it's just me eating."
"I realize that but manners is manners hun now eat your supper." He takes the ipod and sits it down.
"You can listen to it when you're done."
She nods finishing her dinner. Emmett's first to make it back.
"Hey wanna watch a movie?" He asks Bella as she's downing her tea and taking her dishes to the sink.
"Sure!"
"Did you finish all you homework?" She nods.
"Ok go on…"
Emmett pops in Pulp Fiction and Carlisle walks back over to the Blu Ray player taking it back out.
"She's not watching that."
"Oh come on she's seen it before."
Carlisle looks to his son.
"When?!"
Emmett clears his throat.
"I mean I think she has…"
Bella laughs and quickly presses her lips together as Carlisle cuts her a look.
"Are you boys letting Bella watch these kind of movies while I'm at work?!"
"Um…"
Jasper and Edward enter the house at that moment hearing what Carlisle said. Carlisle shakes his head.
"Honestly… You all should be ashamed of yourselves.
"Bella can handle it. She's tough aren't ya?"
"Yeah I'm tough."
"Bella…" Carlisle warns then looks to the boys.
"PG 13 until I say otherwise got it?"
They all nod as Carlisle grabs another movie instead and places it in.
"Toys? Really?" Emmett says.
But he shuts up as Carlisle looks to him. It's gotta be one of Robin Williams worst movies ever he thinks to himself.
"I'm going to work now. Bella you make sure you get to bed in plenty of time for school tomorrow."
"Ok."
Edward hands her a bowl of popcorn and a soda. Emmett and Jasper watch as Carlisle pulls out of the drive. Emmett rushes back up and switches the movie back over. Edward laughs.
"He's gonna kick your ass if he finds out."
Emmett shrugs pulling Bella into his lap as she picks at her popcorn.
"So favorite character?" Jasper asks Bella curiously.
"Butch."
"Really?"
"Yep. I like Bruce Willis."
"Ah…"
"Girl after my own heart." Emmett says.
"You?"
Jasper thinks for a moment.
"Vincent."
She laughs.
"I kind of thought you'd say him."
"Is that so?"
She nods laughing a bit more.
"And you?" She turns to Edward.
He looks to the screen.
"Not so sure… They're all rather odd and have their issues."
"Come on Edward pick one!"
"Hmmm well I suppose I rather like Mia."
"The druggy?"
He half laughs.
"He just likes the actress don't ya Eddie boy?"
"Shut up."
"What she's not so bad."
"She is pretty."
The movie's almost over as they look over and Bella's sound asleep with her head in Emmett's lap but her feet in Jaspers. Edward picks her up and takes her upstairs. He tucks her in then heads back down to finish the movie with his brothers.
Once the movie is over they rid of the evidence of ever have watching it tonight.
"Happy birthday to you!"
Bella shakes her head but blows out the candles. Carlisle takes some pictures then cuts the small cake he'd made just for Bella.
"Chocolate!" She says as he cuts into it.
He laughs.
"Yep."
"Thanks guys that's so sweet."
Carlisle hands her his gift first. She opens it up and she looks to him.
"This is too much I can't take this Carlisle."
"You can and you will. I saw you eyeing it at the store the other day."
"But it's so expensive."
He shrugs.
"It'll prove to be beneficial in many ways such as homework."
"And porn…" Emmett mutters.
Jasper and Edward elbow him and Carlisle smacks him in the back of the head. Bella checks out her new silver Macbook.
"Ow, damn…"
"Language in front of Bella." Carlisle warns.
"Thanks Carlisle." But she felt that twinge of guilt about him spending so much on her.
Edward hands her his gift.
"Awesome!" She says as she looks upon the record player.
"Where'd you find this?"
He shrugs.
"Saw it at one of the stores in Port Angeles and remembered you always wanted one."
"Thanks so cool."
Jasper shoves his gift across the table. She opens the long box and Carlisle's eyes widen.
"You got her a knife?!"
"What?" Jasper says as if honestly confused and Edward and Emmett are dying.
Carlisle promptly takes the knife away. Jasper's jaw drops and Bella reaches for her gift back. Carlisle walks out of the room as he goes to hide the knife. Jasper taps Bella on the shoulder and winks. "Here…"
She softly laughs as she looks to the knife with her name engraved into it.
"I knew he was going to do that this was the real thing."
She nods and quickly hides it as she whispers "thanks." Jasper clears his throat as Carlisle makes his way back down.
Jasper and Edward are already laughing at Emmett's gift. The way he wrapped it you could clearly tell what it was already. Bella grins ear to ear. Carlisle's laughing himself at the clear indication of a bat, ball and glove.
"Time to learn how to play like a Cullen baby girl."
"She can't possibly play with us." Edward hisses.
"Ah the hell she can't…"
"You don't even like baseball do you princess?"
She turns to Edward.
"It's not so bad and I love watching you all play."
Emmett grins.
"See! By the time I'm done with you, you'll be a pro!"
