Hi guys!

It's my first fan fiction, so I would really appreciate it if you could really take it easy on me. I love reading stories from fan fiction and lately after seeing so many wonderful stories, I thought why can't I write one too? This idea came up in my head when I was having a bath; I usually get a lot of good ideas when I am having a bath. I'm babbling here, I know, it's probably because I'm really nervous! Anyways, lets move onto the story and see what you think of it!!!!!! 

The Decision

How dare he? How could he? How dare he ask me to marry his son? How dare he try to take away me freedom when I'm only eighteen!!!!

"Bella you are like a daughter to me" he spoke.

"Carlisle, if I'm like a daughter to you, you wouldn't ask me to live with your son for a year!" I exploded, "If you think of me as a daughter, no father would want their daughter to be a prostitute!"

"Bella, I'm not asking you to be a prostitute. My son is very irresponsible at the moment; he needs a responsible girl in his life. If he marries you, he would learn something out of you, and of course who could resist falling in love with a girl like you!"

Yes, this is the situation I ran myself into, although I never intended it to, as my mother says I am always a danger magnet. Carlisle Cullen owns more than 50 popular factories around the world and he is ranked one of the top five richest man in the world.

You might think I'm mad to resist the offer of marrying his son, Edward Cullen, but Edward being the player of the school, and also being a self centered pig, he is also my number one enemy. He loves to make fun of my and humiliate me at the first chance he possibly could.

"Your son had said that if he doesn't like me within a year, then he would divorce me! I am eighteen, and at the age of nineteen, I might be the first teen ever to get divorced at the age of NINETEEN!" I exaggerated.

" You can never be sure that Edward would want to divorce you, and after you are married to my son, as I know your family are in great debt, I would help them" he said softly.

I thought about what he said for a moment, it was true, my parents were in great debt, which they won't be able to fix even if they were dead!

And besides, what's the point? My sister Rosalie is pregnant, and the father of the child says he would only marry her if she gives him about $100,000. Knowing the slut my sister is who would have thought that she would get pregnant at the age of twenty? She needs money, my parents need money, and I need money if I want to go to university in a few years time.

"What do you say Bella? So are you going to do it or not?"

"Why me? There are a lot of girls who would be willing to do this, a lot of girls who would die to live with the famous Edward Cullen for a year, so why did you have to choose me?" I asked with a bit on uneasiness showing in voice.

Carlisle looked uncomfortable for a moment, and then pulled himself together, "Esme and I didn't want to choose any girl we saw on the street and any girl who was willing to spend all our money on clothes and shopping. We wanted to choose a girl who was sensible, responsible, beautiful, charming and good in every other way for our son. You have all the qualities that our son needs Bella" he paused and looked at me softly, "Edward may not seem such a good person, but I promise you, once you get to know him he is such a good hearted boy."

"Carlisle, if he doesn't love me after a year, then it would be me who would be suffering. I would be known as the girl who got divorced at the age of nineteen. But I would marry Edward, only because my family needs the money, and it would do them good. I would not be selfish to think of only myself."

"Thank you Bella, Thank you ever so much! The wedding would be this Saturday!" he exclaimed excitedly.

"That early? How would Edward react? Did he agree to this marriage?" I asked puzzled and a bit unsure.

"Edward doesn't disobey my decisions," Carlisle said very seriously.

I have a feeling that this year is going to be sooo long!
