This smile

Genre: Family / Romance

Pairing: Bella x Edward (indirect)

Spoiler: Twilight (xD), Breaking Dawn (a little bit)

Summary: This smile was just for her. In a hundert years, I hadn't seen him smile like this; hadn't seen him this happy. Honestly - I was a bit pissed.

A/N: This idea came to my mind while I was in Paris. Enjoy and Review of course!

(Alice P.O.V.)

Two months before she came to Forks in person, I had already seen my first vision of her.

At this time our whole family had been worrieing over Edward and his obvious lack of interest in females. That's why I was looking out for his future the most. He had been alone for nearly a century. Damn, something had to happen!

At first, she was faceless, a warm, human body that lay on a sunny day in a meadow, with my brother by her side.

Though she was anonymous, this vision told me nearly everything. Edward was with her outside on a sunny day; so she knew about us. She was with him in his favorite and very private place; so he really treasured her. And she was human.

As my brother saw the vision in my thoughts he was just confused. Nothing fit. He wouldn't risk our family by telling her our secret and he wouldn't endanger a human girl's life like this.

He didn't leave his room all weekend.

When the new girl came to school for the first time, the nameless girl of my vision got a face. It was Bella Swan, of course.

The period after lunch that day was horrible. In school I had to watch over Jasper, but Edward's possible futures engrossed my mind completely. My visions changed so fast that they were a blur even my brain could barely comprehend. They all ended with Edward sucking Bella Swan's blood.

I didn't understand it. Not at all. Edward was one of the most experienced and disciplined family members. He rarely wasted a thought on killing weak, little humans. What was the difference now?

Although I tried to force it out of him - and I can be very convvincing - he wouldn't tell me, even after retourning from Denali.

I was becoming curious about the whole story. My brother wants to suck the blood of the girl he seems to fall in love with and after seeing her for the first times, he runs and hides.

Of course the big turning point was the incident, brainless Tyler Crowley caused. To my embarassment, I hadn't foreseen the accident and was totally taken by surprise. I hate surprises.

That day I saw it for the first time. This smile he gave only her. It's slightly crooked and his eyes glow with happiness. It's as if I see his face for the first time. Without bitterness, without boredom. It seems young and carefree, as if a heavy weight has been lifted off of his chest.

Honestly I had been a bit jealous first. Who wouldn't? I was his favorite sister, who was always spending time with him. And then sweet and pretty Bella Swan blushes and trips a few times and gets more emotions out of him, than his whole family together.

By the way... Edward didn't come home yesterday night. He came this morning, telling us that he was talking Bella over to us today. Esme nearly fainted and Rosalie immediately stalked off to her beloved car.

I didn't know how to react properly. My mind was torn between welcoming her nicely or ignoring her discretely. All the time I got flickers of their future together. Her as a vampire, him fighting, her dieing. Nothing concrete, really, it was changing all the time. But this beautiful smile of his was there so often. They seemed truly happy and at ease. So why not? Besides ... she seemed really pretty, like good material. I always wanted to play Barbie ...

Oh, I see, seems like I never had a choice. I just foresaw their wedding. Nice dress, I bet I'll pick it. But - why the hell are there some Quileute on the wedding?!

Well, I'm sorry for the unforgivable long pause. I'm trying to update SA as soon as possible... but it's hard ... I'm fighting serious writersblock. No excuse. Would you like to have some more chapters? Like Esmes or Rosalies point of view? Tell me ... in a review ;)
