Our family's mini van pulled up to a house I thought a small town like Forks would never have. It was a 1929 house, with 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The house looked horrible on the outside, but let's face it, when my mother has a project in front oh her, there's nothing stopping her. I guess I get that from her.

"Isabella! Get over her, and help your brothers and sisters unpack!" my mother called from the car. My mother had light brown wavy hair to about just past her shoulders. White, cold skin, like all of us, and topaz eyes right now.

My mother Mary was an artist. She liked to make our houses look like we've been living there for years. Her mate, who was our father, Nathan, was a lawyer. He had straight black hair. Rather boring.

My brothers, Christopher, had wavy brown hair, Martin, had red hair and Thomas had black hair like Nathan too. My sisters, Sophie, had shoulder length wavy blonde hair, and was mated with Chris. My other sister, Andrea, had curly shoulder length hair and was mates with Martin.

Now, being in a family of vampires, most people would think I would be mates with Thomas, as Nathan and Mary planned when they changed him. But that never really worked out with us. I always have thought of him as my brother, not my mate.

"Bella! Stop day dreaming and come help us un-pack!" Sophie was yelling around the car to where I was standing in the doorway of out new house.

"I will. Just relax." I yelled back to her. I turned to Mary. "Mary, could we please go and pick our rooms first? That way we know where everything's going." I smiled.

"Hmm, that does sound like a good idea. But remember, Nathan and I get the North room on the second floor. Also, everything must be out of these trucks in three hours, we have the Cullen family coming to meet us." Mary said turning back to the car to help get boxes out.

"Yes mom, we know." We all chanted together. That's all Mary could talk about on the way here, the fact that there were other vampires that permanently lived in the area with the same eating habits as us. Animal blood, not human.

So we all rushed into the house, at human speed of course, until we were inside out of human eye. Then we all ran up the stairs, with me in the lead followed closely by Thomas, to pick a bedroom.

I got the bedroom on the South side, third floor, with a giant walk-in closet. Cause knowing Sophie and being in a new town, she would wanting to be going shopping tomorrow.
