I was eager for daycare, as I was every day. The toys, the snacks, the friends…Eddy. Yes, Eddy. I really like Eddy, there's just something strange about him. Well, not only him, all of my friends at daycare. Alice, Jazzy, Em, Rose and Eddy. They learn so much faster than me, or anyone else at daycare. And, they never eat their snacks. All of the teachers always tell them that they're gorgeous. It's just simply odd.
"Come on, Bella. We're going to be late!" hollered my father, Charlie. I never really thought he was fond of me.
When we get closer to the daycare center, he never lets me look at the sign. But, today, he forgot to yell at me to close my eyes. Then, I saw the sign: Forks Adoption Center. It couldn't be. He takes me here every day. Then it hit me.
He wants to get rid of me.
I started crying, and Charlie didn't care. Eddy, Alice, Jazzy, Em, and even Rose tried to help (she's not very fond of me, but I have no clue why). Jazzy was the most effective, even though he didn't say anything, but as soon as it was his group's turn for nap time, I got worked up again. Also, I heard Eddy mutter to Alice "You were right."
At the end of the day, though happy for it to be over, it got better and better. A very nice man, named Dr. Carlisle Cullen, decided to adopt the whole bunch of us! "So, you want Jasper and Rosalie Hale, Edward Masen, Bella Swan, Alice Savetti, and Emmett Smith," said the man at the front desk.
"Yes, every one," said Dr. Cullen,"And, please, I want them to come home with me tonight."
"Very well, Dr. Cullen, I'll tell their parents when they get here. You may come by tomorrow to pick up their luggage."
"Thank you," he said to the clerk. Then, to us,"Hi, sweethearts, I can assure you that I shall be kinder to you than you can ever imagine. I do have limitations, though.
"Yes, Dr. Cullen," we all said simultaneously.
"Please refer to me as Daddy, now"
"Okay, Daddy!" I said by myself, eager to start a newer, happier life.
I understood that now Eddy and I were family, it would be awkward for us to be engaged. But, still, he looked at me with more passion than one would think possible for a four-year-old. I'm sure that's what we wanted to be; the first four-year-old bride and groom. One thing that made me sure that he loved me was that, since he didn't eat, he always gave his deserts in daycare.
"Miss Swan?" asked Carlisle.
"Yes, Daddy?"
"I need to talk to you."
"Okay!" This was odd, he never talked to us one at a time. But, nonetheless, I skipped happily away from Blue Hat, Green Hat, my favorite book.
"Bella, honey, you need to know something. You are the only human being here." I was confused. What did he mean? Was I surrounded by ghosts? That would explain why they didn't eat. But, it wouldn't explain why Carlisle and Esme (my new mommy) took turns for being away all weekend, every weekend with the others. "Edward, Alice, Jasper, Emmett, Rosalie, Esme and I…are all…vampires." I panicked. The lights in my brain went off. I was unconscious, standing up with a blank look on my face.
