I remember it like it was yesterday. When we were eight and it was a simpler time.

[[0o0_flashback_0o0]]

Mommy made me go to this park. I hate it here I always get picked on. Mommy never sees it. It's always Lauren and Jessica. I hate them so much. They always pull my hair and kick dirt into my face. I can see them now. They are coming towards me. Oh no.

"Hey stupid head I don't know why your last name is swan it should be ugly duckling" Lauren says in a snide voice. Jessica laughs along with her.

Why are they so mean to me! I have never done anything to them. I start crying when two boys walk up. They must be new to town because I have never seen them hear before. It's a small town everybody knows everybody here.

"Don't make her cry you big meanies!" the boy with the golden hair yelled.

"Yeah it's not nice didn't your mommy teach you manners?" the second boy said. He had semi-long black hair.

The girls ran away and I stopped crying I looked up and the two boys where still there. I smiled. Nobody had ever stood up for me like that.

"Hello I'm Isabella but I hate that name so please call me Bella", I said in a raspy tone from all the crying I had done earlier.

"I'm Edward and this is Jake my brother" the golden hair boy spoke, "we just moved here from Texas"

"Oh you guys don't look like brothers?" at that point I questioned there sanity. Had they looked at themselves lately?

"Our mommy and daddy adopted us that is why we look different. "The black haired boy said a smile playing around his lips. 'They must have the perfect family' I thought to myself. I asked them if they wanted to play and they said yes. We were playing tag and Edward was it. Just as he was about to tag me I tripped and fell bringing him along with me.

"Jake Edward we have to go pick up your brother and sisters from their friend's house. Oh who is this?' a lovely woman spoke she had caramel colored hair and looked like the perfect nice so sweet. Like all mommies should be.

"This is Bella our new friend! "They both exclaimed together.

I never had a friend before. Well besides my brother anyway.

"Hello dear I am Esme Cullen. It is a pleasure to meet you I am Jacob and Edwards's mother. "Her voice was like drizzling honey on a piece of toast in the morning.

"Hi" I could feel the blush crawl up my face," it is nice to meet you too."

"How about we set up a play date for you and the boys? Where is your mommy or daddy dear?"

I looked around. And I could not find her. She probably was off with Uncle Phil again and forgot me

"My mommy isn't here right now."

"What do you mean she is not here" the nice lady Esme was crouching down she had a look of concern on her face.

"Oh sometimes she forgets me, it's okay though my house is just down the street "I said in a small voice.

"How about we walk you home. Then I can talk to whoever is home about the play date okay. "She smiled down. She seemed so nice. "Okay!" I started walking down my road.

When we reached the house my father Charlie and brother Emmett were waiting outside. Emmett is 11 and he is the most cuddly cuddle bear out there. He looks mean and scary when you first see him but he isn't at all.

"Daddy "I screamed running up and hugging him. He set me down letting me hug Emmett and talk to him about my new friends when he noticed Esme and the boys. "Hello, can I help you?" a gruff voice coming from under his mustache.

"Yes hello, I was walking Bella home because she told me her mother forgot her at the park and she had to walk home alone. That isn't very safe and I didn't know if anybody would be home so I came with to make sure she was okay, and now that I see that she is I wanted to set up a play date between Bella and my boy's. They seemed to really hit it off at the park and we are new to town so I thought it would be nice for the boys to have some friends before school started." She ended her statement with a smile.

Looking at the woman daddy looked quit flabbergasted," yeah sure that would be great Bella usually doesn't make friends.", they scribbled on a couple pieces of paper and handed switched them giving each one the opposite paper," here is my number I'll call sometime this week and we can set it up." Esme said with a smile. I said good bye to Edward and Jacob then Esme rushed them off. I guess because they were late picking somebody up. As I saw then turn the corner on their way back to the park mommy came running in the opposite direction towards our house looking frightened. She ran up to the house and when she saw me tears sprang from her eyes. She got down on her knees and hugged me kissing the top of my head we all seemed to look up at my father then. All I could see was anger boiling up into his eyes. He only got that look when he was getting one of us in trouble and this time I don't think it's me or Emmett

[[0o0_end flashback_0o0]]

Later that night I remember hearing the screaming. She had forgotten me again. Emmett my brother crept into my room that night and comforted me while I was crying. But everything was better in the morning like always. We had the play date. We had LOTS of play dates. We would ride bikes. Play in the river. I even got to go on a trip with their brother got to come too. Through that time I eventually met every one in the family. Esme, 30, loving mother. Carslile, 33, the perfect dad. Rosalie, 10, she was the beautiful blond that loved me. Alice, 9, who loved shopping and everything girly. Edward and Jacob, 8, the little rascals that loved playing tricks. Then there was jasper, 10, Rosalie's brother that was pretty much all I knew about him. He kept to himself. Always up in his room or staying out of the picture. Even without jasper my life seemed perfect it was like I had two families one was me, Emmett mom, and dad. The other was me Emmett and the Cullens. Everything was perfect up until my 12 birthday.

That is when everything changed.
