I can't believe this is happening to me. How can he honestly think this is a good idea. I groaned as I threw the last of my things into my bag.

"Bells are you almost ready?" my brother called up the stairs.

"Unfortunately, yes." I mumbled as I grabbed my duffel bag and headed downstairs.

"Come one Bella. I'm not extremely happy that were going either but were gonna finally be on a sunny beach…ALL SUMMER!" Emmett boomed.

Yea my dad decided that me and my brother needed to spend time in North Carolina with our mom. She was getting re-married in July and then moving to Japan to live on a naval base. Seriously, she just up and left three years ago and hasn't talked to us since and now she's marrying a military man and moving to Japan! What the hell?! Plus I have to spend the entire summer with her. I mean of course I'm excited to go live on a beach where it is actually sunny and hot. Plus I will have Emmett with me but I really don't want to see my mom and that's killing my idea of a fun summer.

"Bella, it will be okay. She loves you and wants to see you. Have fun, okay?" Charlie hugged me and we said our goodbyes. I climbed into the passenger seat as Emmett was finishing putting everything in the trunk. When he got in the drivers side we left for the airport.

We walked around for a while in the airport before heading to our terminal. When we finally got onto the plane and took off. I plugged my Ipod in and fell asleep for the entire flight. I so hoped that I would wake up in my bed, in Forks and realize it was just a nightmare.

When we landed in North Carolina Emmett rented a car and we headed to Wrightsville Beach. When he pulled up to a little beach bungalow I groaned.

"We seriously have to stay here all summer!" I closed my eyes and hit my head on the headrest.

"Bella! Emmett! I'm so glad your finally here!" My mom came running out of the house and into Emmett's arms. Phil wasn't here since he would be on the base until 2 weeks before the wedding.

"Hey mom!" Emmett boomed, I mean seriously this kid did not know the meaning of quiet. Even though he had hated that mom left, he was still such a mommas boy. She let go of him and looked at me with her arms wide open. I scoffed and grabbed my bag and walked inside.

I yelled back out, "Which rooms mine?" My mom came inside with Emmett in tow and said "you and Emmett will be sharing the second room on the right." She smiled sweetly but I knew that she knew I was about to flip a shit.

"There is no way in hell I am sharing a room with Emmett! He's my brother and yeah that'd be somewhat okay if we were like ten!" I screamed in her face. Now I'm not a bitch I would never treat an adult like this but she didn't deserve my respect anymore. But before she could say anything I grabbed my bag and dropped it on one of the beds in the second room on the right and then headed out onto the beach.

There weren't many people left on the beach. Most of the families had gone in to have dinner and talk about there days. Ha! Yea right, I need to get out of her as soon as possible.

I sat on the beach for a while trying to think of a way to get out of here when Emmett came up behind me.

"Bells, you shouldn't be such a bitch. She just wants to spend time with us before she has to leave." He laughed as he finished because he realized he had effectively scared the shit out of me.

"You prick!" I yelled as I jumped up and ran down the beach after him both of us laughing the entire time. But he stopped short and I collided with his back and fell on my ass.

"What the hell Emmett?!" I got up and looked to see what made him stop. He was staring at a group of kids who seemed about our age playing beach volleyball. There were 2 boys and 2 girls playing against each other. If I know Emmett he was staring at the girls boobs.

As I turned to talk to Emmett I got hit in the back with the volleyball. The players all came running over. The tall blonde boy got there first, he reached down and grabbed the ball.

"Sorry about that. She's got a really hard serve." He said pointing to the tall blonde next to him. "I'm Jasper Hale and this is my sister Rosalie." he said pointing to the same girl. "This is my girlfriend Alice Cullen and her brother Edward." I hadn't noticed the other two people standing next to Jasper and Rosalie. The girl was little, and when I say little I mean she could pass for a 8th grader if she wanted to and she was basically bouncing in place. But the boy, my god the boy was heartbreakingly beautiful. Tall, lean but muscular, wild sex hair and his eyes! Gah! He had the most beautiful emerald eyes.

I hadn't realized I was staring until Jasper cleared his throat. "Oh yea. I'm Bella Swan and this is my brother Emmett." I turned to point to Emmett and realized he was locked in a staring contest with Rosalie. They were both smiling at each other. I snapped my fingers in front of his face. "Hello Captain of the apes! When someone introduces you you usually say hello back" I smiled smugly at him and he scowled at me.

"So you guys wanna join. We could play 3 on 3" Rosalie asked still occasionally looking at Emmett.

"Sure!" Emmett practically screamed at them and they all visibly flinched.

"Sorry he doesn't exactly know the meaning of quiet yet." I laughed and Emmett pushed me again making me fall on my ass.

"Yea and Bella has the balance of a 3 year old." he smiled smugly at me and started walking towards the court with Rosalie.

Edward reached down and helped me up. The moment he touched me it felt as if every nerve in my body was alive and on alert. He had to have felt that too. He just smiled and we walked side by side to the court. Maybe this summer won't be absolutely terrible.
