A/N: Okay, this is my first real Fanfiction story, so don't yell at me if it sucks. I got the idea from watching a couple episodes of Teen Cribs on MTV. Longer note at the end.

Cullen Teen Cribs: Chapter 1

Edward's POV

The whole family was in the living room except for Alice. That's when I heard her thoughts: Yes!! We're in!!! We're going to be on TV!

Bella saw the confused look on my face. "What's wrong, Edward?" she asked..

"Alice," I replied. It was all I needed to say.

"What's she got us into this time?" Emmett asked, trying to mask his excitement unsuccessfully.

"The only thing I caught is that we're going to be on TV," I replied, much to the distaste of my family.

"What?!" they all said at once. We really needed Alice here now.

I shrugged. "Alice!" I called out. She was down the stairs in a second with an angelic look on her face.

"Yes?" she asked innocently. After years of living with this, no one in the room bought it.

"Edward said we were going to be on TV?" Esme asked softly.

"Oh, that," Alice said. "Well, do you guys remember the day we watched Teen Cribs?"

"Is that the show where these spoiled brats show us how cool their houses and parents are?" Rosalie asked while rolling her eyes. "There is no way those parents are always okay with having teenagers at the house all the time."

"Yeah, that's the one," Alice said reproachfully. "Well, I kind of, well, signed us up for it." The last part was so quiet that even we had to strain to hear it.

"Excuse me?" Bella asked. I looked at Jasper. Usually he knows about whatever Alice is up to, but now he looked just as surprised as we were, and I'm pretty sure it's not because he could feel all of our shock. He had been blocking his thoughts lately, though.

"Jasper?" he looks up. "Did you know about this?" I ask him. Immediately, all of the attention switches from Alice to Jasper.

"I had a sense that she had some plan forming, but I thought it was just a prank. Nothing like this," he replied, and everyone believes him instantly. Once you get to know Jazz, it's pretty hard not to trust him.

"Look, it's not all that bad. We just have to make sure the couples don't stay in the same room together, because even though people in Forks get it, people around the country usually don't…," Alice said before she gets cut off by Emmett.

"Not all that bad? Really? What if it's sunny the day they come and we just hide around the house? Is that how normal teens act? What if someone from some town we lived in before sees it and realizes we haven't aged?" He was on his feet now.

"Jazz?" Rosalie asked for help as she tries to calm Emmett down. We all feel a wave of calm wash over us. Emmett sits back down with a quiet apology. "Thanks," Rosalie says as she reassumes her spot on the arm of Emmett's chair. Jasper nods in recognition.

"Anyway," Alice said, unfazed by Emmett's little outburst. "I was thinking we could make it look like Edward and Bella's cottage is a place of games and where we hang out with our friends,"

"What friends?" Emmett asked sarcastically. But Bella and I had our thoughts set on something else.

"What?" we said at the same time. "Our cottage?"

"Yeah. We would replace all of your furniture when it's over," Alice said, trying to convince us.

"But it's a little far in the woods," Bella countered.

"We have a trail, though, and don't we always get out of school to go hiking?" Alice shot right back. Man, they were getting good at debate after all those sunny days trying to pass the time with our family playing debate. Those got pretty heated too. I nearly laugh thinking about the time I threw Emmett out the window when it got a little rough. But, boy did I get it for that. From Esme for breaking the window, from Rosalie for, well, throwing her husband through a window, and from everyone else because the rule is that when it gets violent, the debate stops, and that was a good topic, too. But, back to the present.

Bella caved in at the last second. "Fine, we'll make it a game room for that day, but, like Emmett said, what friends?"

Alice had this all ready. "We'll say that when we're home, Carlisle and Esme make us have family time,"

"And what does 'family time' mean exactly?" Emmett teased.

"You know what it means!" Alice said as she threw a pillow at him.

"We'll have to get food, Alice," Carlisle spoke for the first time.

"Does that mean you'll do it?" she asks him hopefully.

"I think there's no choice, they told you they were coming, right?"

"Yeah,"

"Then we're going to be on TV, whether we like it or not," he declares, and everything was decided. The camera crew was coming, according to Alice, in two weeks, and we had to get the house all ready. Jazz was going to stay in my room with me, Bella and Alice were sharing Alice's room, and Rosalie and Emmett got their own rooms. Carlisle and Esme stayed where they were. Now we just have to wait for the crew to get here. This will be a short two weeks.

A/N: I hoped you liked it!! And I know that Edward didn't do a whole bunch of mind-reading, but let's just say he generally doesn't like to intrude into his family's lives and so he doesn't read their minds unless he is directly thought to. And there is no Renesmee. She won't be in most of my stories, but she is in a few of the other person in this profile's stories (I think) so if you like her, go check out the profile!! She was never developed enough for me, and I think she was put in the books to (A.) cause a disruption in Bella and Edward's perfect life and (B.) make sure Jake imprinted so he would stop being in love with Bella and stuff like that. So I don't put her in my stories since she's a little hard to make an essential character unless Jacob is in it so I'll save her for those stories. I got the idea because I'm sick at this point in time and I woke up at 5 AM to cough my head off and produce mucus and disrupt my family so I watched TV in my mom's room and, since nothing is on at 5 AM except Teen Cribs, I watched it and got an idea. I'm going to make a chapter for each room and for them watching it…and we'll see where it goes!! And, if you haven't seen it, the show is exactly as Rosalie described it…a bunch of spoiled brats showing you around their really cool houses. And all of the parents are like "We wanted to make sure that when their friends come over, it's like home." And I'm like "My mom would hate it if that many teenagers were at my house, swimming in my pool, watching movies in my theater ALL THE TIME!". Man, soon this note is gonna be longer than the chapter, but one last thing: review and tell me (1) what you think (2) ideas, etc.
