Sorry I haven't finished The Tunnel of Blood yet, but I'm working on it. I need a couple of new ideas so while I was thinking I came up with this story. I hope you enjoy it. It takes place a long time after Eclipse.

Disclaimer: I do NOT and NEVER will own Bella or anyone else. Yes, even Edward…unless he really wants me too…. teehee

"I'm almost 18 years old! I am not a child! You can't control me anymore!"

"I am your father and as long as you live under my roof, you're going to follow my rules!"

"You just don't understand! I hate you!" she screamed then stomped up the stairs. He flinched as a door slammed. Then he turned.

"What are we going to do with her?" He looked at me questionably and sat on the couch. He pulled me onto his lap.

"I honestly don't know." I replied resting my head on his chest. "When is Emmett Bring Mark back?"

"In about an hour," he kissed my forehead. "Don't tell me you miss him already?" He lifted my face do that he could look into my eyes.

"Just a little."

"What are we going to do when he gets to be her age?"

I just shrugged. "I guess I should go talk to her now." I said and we stood up. He nodded and strolled into his studio.

I was making my way down the hall when I heard the faint sound of a song starting coming from his studio. I know that he wouldn't be listening. I knocked lightly on the door to her bedroom and her stereo got louder. Just like her father, fuming to music. I thought with a smile and opened the door that was locked and on hinges two seconds ago. Oops, Edward would have to fix that later.

"Mom!" She looked surprised.

I looked at her with the same surprise. "You know the rule of locked doors in this house. If you don't open it, it will be ripped off." I smiles and she just stared at me in disbelief.

"Isn't Mark on his way back or something?"

"Yes," I looked at her through slit eyes. "What does he have to do with anything?"

"Don't you want to give him all your attention, Like usual?" she spat at me. I instantly started feeling guilty.

That was her power. She could put people (or vampires) in a trance and manipulate them. Make them do what she wanted them to do; say what she wanted them to say; feel what she wanted them to feel. I am usually blocked form it as with other mental powers, but sometimes I let my guard down and it works, like now.

As soon as I realized that she was doing it to me I snapped out of it and glared at her. "You had the same treatment at the age."

"Yea and I'm not that age anymore but I still want the same kind of treatment, just a grown up version." She said lowering her stereo again.

"Oh, and that little temper loss down stairs was soo grown up of you!" I laughed. She scowled at me. "Look, you father loves you." Arra opened her mouth in protest, but I continued, "He only wants to protect you. And I don't entirely disagree with him. I think he should at least get to meet him before we let you go, God knows where, with him."

"Mom," Arra started, "I know but I don't know if I even want a relationship with him yet."

"Arrabella, I understand that but rules are rules," I replaced a few stands of hair behind her ear, "and you know your father and his rules." We both laughed. "Okay, if you agree to it I'll talk to your dad, but before you leave with him tomorrow night, we need to meet him."

"Okay!" Arra smiles then threw her arms around my neck in an embrace.

I hugged back and stood up. I then walked down stairs. I lightly knocked on Edward's studio door. Lifehouse's 'Hanging by a Moment' was still blasting through the speaker when the door opened. I stepped in and closed the door behind me. I turned to see Edward lowering the volume. I stood at the door and watched as he walked over to the couch along the opposite wall.

Who is Arra? Who is Mark? What will Edward say to the agreement? Who is the "HE" Bella and Arra are talking about? And what problems does he bring? Lots and LOTS of questions. Next Chapter may answer a few of more… Who really knows?!?! DUH..DUH…DUH!! teehee R&R PLEASE!!!
