Christie

BPOV

We were all in the living room watching "Jeopardy!" Well everyone but me. After living only eighteen years verses people who have liven over one hundred years, you don't have time to call out any answers you know. The worst part was that Alice could see the future and as soon as she saw it she would shout it out. As soon as the vision came Edward would read her mind and shout out the answer at the same exact time as Alice. The rest of the family would shout out the answer a few seconds after. That continued until there was a ring at the door. Everyone looked up.

"Edward, who is it?" I whispered

"I don't know…" he said and started getting up. Edward concentrated on what was on the other side of the door but couldn't get anything. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Alice smile but then it looked like she changed her thoughts. Edward opened the door and looked down. Looked down?

"Hi, your Edward right?" I heard a little voice say.

"Yes," Edward said slowly, "Who are you?"

"Christie Clark age five." She said with a baby voice. "Can I come in?" before Edward could answer she skipped into the house. Edward was right behind her. As soon as she saw us she turned and ran behind Edward. "Who are they?" she whispered,

"Uh, my family. Esme, Rosalie, Alice, Bella, Emmett, Carlisle and Jasper."

"Hi everyone!" she piped. I smiled at her. When she saw me she frowned, "Hey! Your, not a Vampire! Why is she here?" she asked Edward. Before he could answer her he was interrupted.

"Uh, Christie dear, where did you come from?" Esme asked her,

"I don't remember,, I'll I know is that someone told me to find the Cullen's. Are you the Cullen's?" Esme nodded her head.

"Christie, are you sure that you don't remember where you came from? When you were changed?" Esme asked her

"I was changed a few months ago. By my mommy. But then a big mean vampire took her away. Before she left she told me to find you guys." It was silent for a while before Edward spoke up.

"Ok, I'll take Bella home and you guys figure out what to do her." Edward said

"No! I wanna go stay with you Eddie!" Christie whined and attached herself to his leg. Everybody had a big grin on their face

"No." Edward said coldly,

"She could come, I'm fine with that." I said studying her. She was light skinned and had straight black hair in cornrows. She was a little short for her age and was really pretty. When I looked at Edward he was giving me a disapproving look.

"Yay! I get to ride with Eddie!" Christie said jumping up and down and clapping her hands.

"Ok, you could ride with us, on one condition. Stop calling me Eddie."

"Please?" suddenly she made a face that could ask someone to jump off a cliff and they would do it. Edward blinked a few times before answering.

"…Never mind." When I was getting up to go to the door I saw Christie trying to grab Edward's hand but she wouldn't let him. When she finally got hold of his hand it looked like she squeezed it.

"Ow!" he said trying to pull her hand away but instead pulled her off of the floor. "Let go of my hand!" he started shaking his arm to get her off but Christie wouldn't let go. "Come on Christie, let go!" everyone was laughing at Edward and Christie. Christies face turned hard and she let go.

"Meanie!" she shouted and stomped on his foot.

"Ow, ow, ow!" Edward yelled and clutched his foot. He hopped to the couch and sat down. "She is abnormally strong!" he hissed through his teeth.

"Or Eddie couldn't take a punch?" Emmett added. Rosalie snickered behind her hands.

"Christie, why don't you give Emmett a big hug?" Alice suggested probably knowing what would happen next. Christie ran over to Emmett and hugged his legs. After five seconds Emmett fell over onto the floor. "Ok Christie, that's enough." Esme said. When Emmett got up he was growling.

"Christie do you know how to arm wrestle?" he asked, she furrowed her eyebrows shaking her head. "Go on the other side of the table, I'll show you—"

"Emmett! I am not letting you arm wrestle a 5 year old!" Rosalie lectured her husband.

"Honey!" Emmett whined.

"No."

"Christie, come on, I'm taking Bella home." Edward said to her. She got up and skipped to Edward humming a tune and they walked to the door together.

"Bye guys," I said waving. Everyone said bye to me and we left. Out side Christie was skipping and pulling Edward to the car.

"Skip with me!" she ordered him.

"No."
