Life With The Cullens

Life With The Cullens

Chapter 1 - Premonition

Bella:

As I walk in to the Cullen's house, I am still amazed at the beauty of it. Even though I've been her a Zillion times it's still overwhelming.

"How many times have I told you that your house is gorgeous?"

"About a gazillion times," Edward replied. "How many times have I told you that you are gorgeous?"

"About a gazillion and one times," I said as I leaned up to kiss him.

We ran up the stairs (well actually he did the running) into his room in a desperate attempt to evade Alice, but no avail. She had just come back from a shopping trip and with arms loaded with shopping bags she jumped out of her room in front of us. Edward nearly ran her over.

"Bella!" She squealed. "Look what I bought you! I'm so glad you're here, now you can try all this stuff on!"

"Alice, what's Charlie gonna say when I come home with all this?"

" Oh nothing! You're gonna keep it here!" Alice screamed in delight.

It took four long, painful hours to get through all those clothes. Why does Alice keep doing this? I know she loves me but this is getting out of control. I wanted desperately to get back to Edward but I am too tired to do anything with him. I suppose that he would be content just to watch me sleep.

"Alice, can we stop now?" I pleaded.

"Of course Bella, why didn't you say so before?"

I groaned. "Thanks, Alice"

I hobbled down the stairs to find Edward surfing channels. He looked bored, but vampires usually are. There's not always a lot to do when your awake 24/7 and your girlfriend is being held hostage by your sister.

"Hey, love. How was it?" Edward asked. "It was a blast from Alice's point of view."

"Yeah, definitely from Alice," I said, flopping down on the couch beside him. Being beside him against his cool skin was like medicine for the Alice syndrome. I don't know how I can keep doing this. Alice now has a closet in her room just for me. Typical, scary, Alice.

"Terrifying?" continued Edward.

"To the extreme. I'm so tired. Do you mind if we just sit here today? There would be the possibility of me falling asleep."

"No problem, love"

I eventually did fall asleep and I had a really strange dream. Stranger than usual. It almost felt like a premonition. I dreamt that I was with Edward and we alone in his room. He was kissing me passionately going slightly out of his usual comfort range. I liked it more than I should have. Suddenly there was a small explosion. Edward ran downstairs to see what had happened and I hear him yell, "Damn it! Emmett you idiot!"

I couldn't tell what happened, but then Edward came back upstairs. "What happened Edward?" I asked.

"Bella, Sweetie, there's a small fire. We should extinguish it quickly but I just want you to be safe."

I never did find out what caused the fire because I woke up.

"Hello my darling, how was your nap?" Edward inquired.

"Fine. I had a strange dream though."

"I could tell. You kept muttering 'boom, boom'," he chuckled.

"Well, there were some explosions in my dream. It felt like a premonition. I think that I've been with Alice too long."
