CHAPTER 1 – MEMORY

Disclaimer : I do not own twilight or any of its characters. They are all Stephanie Meyers. I just mess with her characters! :D

"Tag! I got you Bells!" shouted Sophie at the top of her voice.

"You can't catch me!" Edward laughed.

"Well, seriously, we are way too old to be playing tag, we're nearly eight, we need to be more mature!"

"Ha Bella, just because Sophie tagged you! And anyway it's only you that's nearly eight, me, Soph and Jake already are! We play tag, I don't see the problem!" Edward laughed, while bouncing around like an idiot.

"Guys! Dinner's ready!" Esme, Carlisle and Charlie shouted, (we were all having dinner at Edward's)

"We're coming!" I said, walking up to Esme, who already had Alice hugging her.

"What are we having?" Of course Edward would ask the question about food! I smiled to myself.

"The good old spag bol!" shouted Emmett from inside the Cullen household.

I guess this is the time where I introduce myself. My name is Isabella swan, but I prefer Bella. I'm eight next month I have 3 best friends, and 3 other close friends. My best friends are Edward, Sophie and Alice, and my closest friends are Jake, Emmett and Rose. Oh, and Esme and Carlisle are like my second parents, I think them as my family. I moved to Forks when I was three and I met Alice, Edward and Sophie when I first got out of Charlie's cruiser. I knew from then that we would be great friends.

6 YEARS LATER

"Truth or dare Sophie?" I asked her, menacingly.

"Dare." She smiled, while narrowing her eyes.

"Okay... I dare you to... DYE YOUR HAIR GINGER!" Edward and Alice rolled about on the floor when I said this, knowing that Sophie never chickens out on a dare.

"Fine, even follow me to the chemist where I'll buy the dye!" she muttered.

"no, we trust you. Anyway, you'll prove that you've done it tomorrow!" Edward laughed.

"See you soon Soph, Edward, Al." I shouted as I walked out of the house, in a hurry to get home.

When I got into my bedroom, I crossed another day off my calendar, only 23 days until I'm 15!

"Dad! I'll be at Edward's!" I shouted from the bottom of the stairs, as Carlisle's Mercedes pulled up outside the door. (He and Edward had come to pick me up) I smiled at Edward as he entered my kitchen with Carlisle behind him.

"Hey Carlisle, Edward. Sure that's fine Bells, where else would you be?" Charlie said, as he emerged from the top of the stairs.

"Hey Charlie" said Edward, while raiding the fridge.

"Edward! We're going home in a minute, why do you need to eat food?" I asked my best friend.

"It's a boy thing" Carlisle and Charlie said in unison.

"Yep, and I'm a strong, growing boy!" Edward said in a playful tone.

"Sure, whatever" I grumbled. "But Emmett didn't do this when he was 14!" I said, finally finding a decent comeback.

"Emmett like Bratz, Bella, he acts like a baby anyway, he was never a growing boy!" Edward said jokingly.

"Rose thinks he's a real man!" I said playfully.

"Well... let's not go into that" Carlisle said while Charlie laughed.

"Anyway, Charlie, Alice wants to know if maybe Bells could sleepover for the weekend?" asked Carlisle.

"Sure, I'm going fishing with Billy and Harry anyways. Have a good time Bells!"

I gave Edward a high-five and Charlie a hug, the ran up the stairs and into my room to get my clothes together.

"Need any help, Bella?" Edward asked, his green eyes glinting with amusement, probably because I can't walk across a straight surface without tripping.
