One glance, a single heartbeat, a passionate kiss, painful death, forever young.
I remember her. She was pale with black hair, darker then the night that surrounded her. She killed my parents. I couldn't stop screaming until someone picked my up and carried me away. I didn't care who it was and curled into his chest sobbing (it had to be a guy; I could feel his muscles through his shirt). I finally looked up and we were walking into a HUGE white house. Suddenly I was surrounded by gorgeous people screaming at my rescuer stuff I didn't understand like, "Why did you bring her here?" "What's her name?" "Can she talk?" "Where did you find her?" Finally, a man with bronze hair holding hands with a woman who looked kinda like a pixie pushed their way to me. The man said, "Honey, can you tell me your name?" I nodded and said, "Julia, sir." The blonde man that looked the oldest turned to the gorgeous family saying, "We have to decide fairly who should be Julia's new parents, so I suggest that we pick out of a hat." "Can you put me down?" I said, turning to the man who had rescued me, Emmett. When he did, I walked over to the blonde man (he seemed to be in charge), and tapped him on the back. He turned around. "Yes, Julia?" I was completely infuriated at his casual tone when discussing MY future! "How can you treat this so lightly? This isn't some kinda contest and I don't wanna be treated like some kinda prize that you either win or lose! Im a person, so I should have a say in what happens to me! Just because I'm quiet-ish doesn't mean that I don't have a voice! I have a huge temper with a REALLY short fuse right now, so DON'T MESS WITH ME MISTER!" He looked shocked at what I had just said. It was eerily quiet. Suddenly, everyone burst out laughing, and the ones that looked like they could be my siblings started high-fiving me saying, "Nice, you told off Carlisle and lived!" (Emmett) "I'm surprised, short stuff." (Jasper) "Wow, Rose, are you sure you two aren't related!" (Edward) "Im sure, but I wish we were, I love her already!" (Rosalie) "I can't WAIT to take you shopping! What's your favorite color?" (Alice) I responded to each by bowing like I had just been performing for Emmett, and saying, "Who you calling short stuff?" (Jasper); "Positive we aren't." (Edward); "Love you too, Rose!" (Rosalie); and "Blue, green, and purple. Oh, and don't even think about pink, except for hot pink."(Alice) "So, Julia, since you don't want your new parents to picked out of a hat, who do you pick?" asked a still-shocked Carlisle. Esme whispered to me, "Don't worry, no one will get mad no matter who you pick, sweetie!" "Okay, I pick..."
