Vanessa: ah sorry we don't (YET!)
"You have got to be kidding me!" I yelled at my Dad. "No way am I sitting. Let alone driving that!" I had just been bought my first car. I was '18', and could drive. "Oh come on, it's not that bad!" That's what he thought. You'd think that vampires would have at least some sort of sense of fashion. "Err yes it is! It's fluro freaking pink!" I yelled. What I saw in front of me was a disgrace. A fluro pink stock wagon. Old, fluro pink stock wagon. I could not be seen in this. Not only would my reputation go down the drain. But myself consciousness would go through the roof! This wasn't going to work. "Dad. I really do like it. But the color. It really doesn't go." He looked like he was hurt, but thinking very, very hard. "We can get somebody to paint it? What color would you like?" This wasn't too bad. Now something discreet. "Ummm black??" He looked surprised, "Sure, I can fix that!" I hugged him as tight as I could "Thanks dad. I knew you'd understand!" I ran inside to make myself a milkshake. Ever since…. Jacob and I didn't work out. We had redecorated my room. Instead of plain cream walls. I had painted a milky brown feature wall, and the rest pale pink. The window overlooking the river had a bench beneath. My wardrobe to the right as you walked in. My bed straight opposite. A big white desk, full over papers and books that I had been using to study for my finals. A few shelves full of books. And a big pin up board. With pictures… pictures of me… and… Jacob. I wasn't sure whether things would go back to normal with us. Although I didn't know if we would never speak again. I supposed they were old memories. And there is no point in dwelling on the past. I took them of the board. And put them in the bin. It was time for a new start. I'd gotten a new hair cut a few weeks ago. Rosalie walked into my room. "I'm in a mood to go shopping. Everybody is busy, the guys are playing guitar hero, and god knows what the others are doing." This was a good idea. "Yeah sure I'd love to. But on one condition. I want a new look, I'm kind of going for the whole fresh start thing." She looked slightly stunned but then said, "I think you look absolutely beautiful now, but if that is what you want, then I would love to help you out!"
We walked into the mall and stood there. "So where to first, hair, makeup,…" She trailed off. "OH MY GOSH!" She wasn't looking at anything or anyone, just in deep thought. She very slowly and excitedly then said, "We should have…. A ball. A formal party. For the end of your school!" She started to jump up and down. I put my hand on her shoulder because it was embarrassing. "Yeah that's a great idea. Just stop jumping already." She stopped but I couldn't wipe the huge grin across her face. Ok. Before we do anything. How bout we go back home. And discuss it with everybody else. "Ok" She nodded, and I practically had to drag her.
As we got home. She yelled out her plans, I put my hand over her mouth. As I was about to call everybody down, I stopped because thanks to Rose's yelling, everybody was downstairs already. "Ok, I'm not sure if any of you understood what Rose said. But she has had an idea." Rosalie nodded her head vigorously, with my hand still over her mouth. "Rose, shoot, but die down the excitement factor." She wiped her hands down her face as if she was wiping away her excitement. "Ok, well I was thinking, that we should have a ball, a formal for the end of Renesmee and her school." Everybody looked around and nodded. "Yeah I think that would be a good idea, But why did you think you needed to tell us? And don't they have one every year anyway?" Asked Jasper. "Yeah but it hasn't been organised yet, we were hoping we could all organise it all." "WE WOULD LOVE TO!" Yelled Alice, she was just as excited as Rosalie was at the stores. The boys didn't want anything to do with it. Especially Emmett. So they went off to do some guy stuff while we sorted it all out. "Ok well I think it would be nice to have it at that lovely park in Port Angeles. You know with that rotunda?" We all nodded in agreement and Esme wrote it down. "Should we have a theme, or just dress to impress.?" "Glitz and glamour!" Piped up Alice. "That's a great idea Alice, but what do you exactly mean?" She thought for a slight second then began explaining. "Just, it can't be anything plain. Either sparkly, dazzling!" She sounded excited, I'll tell you that. "Well what about catering? We can't let all the students starve!" We giggled then Bella said, "I can go out tomorrow and sort something out, I'll do the drinks while I'm at it." This was actually going well, I couldn't wait to go shopping for my dress. " Boys ask girls, as traditionally." I said. While Esme was writing all these things down, she came up with an idea. "I think, that we shouldn't let the boys choose, because each girl is most likely going to be asked more than once, and she may regret saying yes to the person she did, so how bout we make it a lucky dip?" We all looked around, it was a good idea, but there were some strange looking boys at our school. "How about we put 5 boys we wouldn't mind going to it with, then we choose out of them?" said Rose. "Yeah I think that would be a great idea, getting me thinking!" I said. "Ok, we'll put up notices around the school tomorrow and…." Before Rose could finish speaking, I said, "We can't just go ahead and plan this, we need to ask all the staff first!" "Yeah that's true," said Bella, "But we don't have the principle you had mum, we've got a ratty Mrs Bowsfield!" I said, " But, he's not that bad, he's actually really laid back, but when it comes to telling somebody off…. He'll give them all he's got!" I said. "I'll send an e-mail to him tomorrow then." Said Esme. "I'm sorry girls, but I must leave you, I have to go and pick up a new suit for Carlisle. Don't ask me why, just let me do it." We laughed then she got out of her seat and quietly doddled away.
The next afternoon at school, I had been called to the Principles office. Everybody Oooohhed, and thought that I had gotten in trouble, then back over the loudspeaker Mr Bowsfield said, 'Don't worry you aren't in trouble'. I got out of my seat, took my books, and walked out into the rain. I got into the office, then told the lady in the front desk that I was here to see Mr Bowsfield. She ticked something off a list and told me to have a seat. While I was waiting, somebody came in. I knew what they were immediately. He looked at me, I looked at him, we were both thinking the same thing. Suddenly he said into my head, " Meet me outside straight after school." I almost jumped, but I just nodded as I walked into Mr Bowsfield's office. Mr Bowsfield started, "Miss Cullen, I believe your family would like to organise the year twelve formal, is that correct?" I nodded and said, "Yes Mr Bowsfield, Rosalie and Alice are becoming very excited even though we don't know if we may be able to do it." And smiled my pursuing smile. "Well I would greatly appreciate it if your family would organise it, if you would be able to name me a date and price as soon as possible, I shall let all the students know." This was going to be great! "Thank You Mr Bowsfield, I shall let the family know as soon as I get home! Except there is no price needed, but maybe if you could pay for the catering? I will send you a price tomorrow afternoon" "Yes, yes of course! And no thank you! Miss Cullen, to tell the truth we hadn't even thought about the year 12 formal!" "It's been my pleasure" I said and walked out the door. It was ten minutes until school finished, so I just waited, I didn't find a point in walking the whole way across the campus just to have to leave straight away. Thank fully, I didn't have to wait, that boy, that I saw inside the office was jogging over to me. "Umm, hi, are you Renesmee Cullen?" I nodded and said, "Yes I am, why do you ask?" I couldn't take my eyes off him. He was like the pail Italian. A mop of curly dark brown hair, big amber eyes. I couldn't sop looking at that gorgeous face "Well, my name Nic. I'm part of the D'aloia coven. My sister Anthea and I wish to come to school here. We heard of a Cullen coven, that was like us, You only eat animals, am I correct?" "Well my family does, but I'm half human." "I know" he said, taking a step closer, "I've heard a lot about you." I was enjoying this, but as Sophie said at a party she had a few weeks ago, I should learn to tease them. "How about you and your family come back to the house and I'll introduce you to the family?" I said walking over to my now black stock wagon. "How bout we take my car?" He said pointing to the jeep, just like Emmett's but black. "I'll go in my car, and how about you just follow me." I said seductively. I really did like this boy. He was kind. Civilized. And… something about him, just dragged me further and further towards him. In a loving way. I got into my car and started the engine. He was right behind me. I drove back to the house before the stampede of students came out. As I parked my car in the garage, he left his outside on the grass. I got out and walked through the front door, he stayed outside waiting for me to let him in. Nice manners too. "Bella!… Esme!?" nobody answered, just as I was about to call them, everybody came in through the back door. "You ate without me!" I yelled, "Sorry, we thought you'd be at school." Said Edward. "Yes I was, and I found someone, have you ever heard of the D'aloia coven? Well a brother and sister are here. Apparently they are like us." "Let him in" said Carlisle. I walked back to the door and said, "Come on in" He gracefully walked up the stairs and floated inside, "Hi my name is Nicolas D'aloia, and this is my sister Anthea." They all shook hands, but Anthea walked back to the car. "Have a seat and tell us a bit about you." He said pointing at the big dinning room table. We all sat in our usual seats, with Nic at the head off the table. "Well we originally lived in Spain, my mother and father. Did the same as you Dr Cullen. But for different reasons." He paused looking down, "They simply wanted children. The went around, looking for ones suitable, and my sister Anthea were right for it." "They won't tell us how we exactly became to be, but All I remember was that it was excruciatingly painful." "We both are approximately 55 years old both." After looking down, he looked up. " We didn't choose to become "vegetarian" vampires, we simply never got the chance to taste human flesh and blood. After we had changed, we were locked in a cave. My mother Julia, and father Marco would kill deer and bear, then hand it to us both in the cave. Anthea and I would never hurt each other. We knew under all the fear and energy, that we wouldn't hurt each other. Eventually we calmed down, and our parents took us to their house. We moved around quite a bit. We lived in Spain for 8 years, going to school the last four. Then we moved around Europe. Poland, Prague we lived in Paris for a short while but that didn't work out. Then we heard that there was a coven like us living here, in Forks, so we travelled down here. I came looking. My sister is very shy, she doesn't like to say much, or be around people she doesn't know." He paused, for a moment. " Do you think you would be able to help us? Build a house, move in. My sister and I drove around a little bit first, We think this place is absolutely beautiful, perfect. As long as you wouldn't mind another coven here." He looked up, hoping that Carlisle wouldn't mind them being here. "We would love to, the more hunting, the excitement!" Yelled Emmett, "Is that all you think about? Girls and food Emmett?" I snapped. He put his hands up in a look of defence and surrender. Carlisle then said, " We would love it if you lived here, I'm pretty sure we are all getting a bit bored of Emmett." "HEY! I never did anything wrong" He said and sulked in his chair. Carlisle then said "Would there be any chance that I could meet your family?" "If you wouldn't mind, we would like to settle in first, get everything sorted, it has all been very messy and rushed and My parents haven't eaten anything. Do you know where we could maybe have a snack?" Nic asked, I really liked this boy. It felt different to when I first realised I had feelings for Jacob, It felt better, real, like it should be. "Sure, said Esme, if you go around and behind the house, there is a river, cross that and a forest is there. You should find all you need." He gracefully got out of his chair, "Thank you so, so, so, so, so, so, so, much! You have no idea how much we appreciate this!" And he loped out the door. I heard his engine start and leave. "Now Renesmee. How did you find him?" Whoopsy daisies, I hadn't told them yet. "Well I was going to see the Principle. And while I was sitting in the office, he came in and spoke to the lady at the front desk," Then I remembered that he spoke into my head. "And he spoke into my head, told me to meet him outside after school." Then I met him. And he told me a little bit about himself." "Oh and Mr Bowsfield would love for us to organise the formal." "YAYYY!!!" yelled Alice and Rosalie in sync. "Girls, I believe we need to go shopping. Dress shopping" said Esme. "Alright you girls head off, I'll print off some flyers." said Esme. She always knew what to do. "We grabbed our bags and headed out the door into Rosalie's convertible. "Girls, they'll do anything for a chance to go shopping" said Emmett. "OI! I heard that." Said Rosalie. Once we were in the car "What kind of dress would you like?" Asked Alice, "I would really love something sparkly, glittery, maybe gold or silver? No maybe midnight blue, or red,!" I was so excited. "How about, we look around, try a few on, then see which one we like?" Asked Bella, "That sounds like a great idea." And the rest of the way we drove in comfortable silence.
At our arrival into the mall. I saw a bunch of guys from school, they were staring, so as the four of us walked by I waved my fingers and said, "Hi boys." And I swear they swooned. The first store we walked into, the dress I decided to try on was a bright red one, red silk going out with a tiny train. "Hmm," said Alice, " I think it's nice, but it's not you." She said. So I got changed out of it and we walked along to the next store. I found a blue one. Pale blue will spaghetti straps, going straight down to just below my knees. "Hmm still not you!" Yelled Alice, I think she was getting frustrated. The next store we walked into we found two dressed, the same style in gold and silver. It was strapless, silk will a sparkly overlay. Tight to the hips, then it fold down to my feet with a small train. "I think you look absolutely beautiful in both." Said Bella. "But you're going to have to choose between gold and silver. "Alice suddenly came over, "I think silver. It brings out the darkness in your hair, and your pail skin." A lady working in the store came over and said, "Wow, that is magnificent. I've never seen anybody look so fabulous in a dress before. Especially that one!" I was very proud of my self. "We'll take it" I said, now we needed shoes and some accessories. " SHOES!" I randomly yelled, we all laughed and found a shoe store. We ended up buying a strappy pair of silver high heels to match my dress. And we bought a pair of long white gloves, a diamond choker. And some hair accessories. "You are going to look the best of them all!" said Bella, "Thanks mum! But I don't think I can beat what you were wearing to your formal!" I said, "Oh trust me you can!" said Alice, "Ummm, if you can remember Alice, you bought that dress for me!" Said Bella, "I did to. But I'm going to make you look better than ever!" We giggled and walked out of the mall. When we were in the car Alice suddenly said, "Oh my gosh! I know who you should put in to go with to the formal!" I had no idea who it could be, "Who?" I asked, "Nic!" She said, "I could, but remember I have to put 5 boys in, well let's make it two." This was going to be fun, "But who should I put in as my second?" I asked, "Tom?" Tom… I hadn't seen him for ages, so much for best friends, I suppose he had Sophie now, he didn't need me. "I don't know… What if I get him, then Sophie will be angry with me. And she's the only 'girlfriend' I've got!" Hey trust me, We r gonna do the hat thing. And all the names we put into it, will have Nic, and Nic with have you and Sophie with Tom and so on." "Ok, that's fine I guess." I would die without these girls, "You guys are THE best! Seriously, what would I do without you?" We laughed and got out of the car. Nic and his family were here, talking to Carlisle and Esme. "We can help you, You will have a house in not time." "We greatly appreciate it!" Said a female voice. "Yes we do, now if you excuse us. We have to enrol our children into Forks high school, do you have any children?" Asked a male voice, must me Marco and Julia. "Yes I do, I have 6 children, except one is more like my daughter in law, and one grandchild." Said Esme very proudly, "Would you like to meet them?" Asked Carlisle, "Yes we would love to!" Said Julia. Carlisle called us down. The boys came from upstairs, and Us girls from out side. "This is Emmet and Rosalie, Alice and Jasper, And Edward, and this is our newest member Bella. It's a long story." Carlisle pointed them all out and we shook hands with everybody. "Errherrm?" I said, Carlisle looked at me and said, "And this is Renesmee, Bell and Edwards daughter." They looked stunned, "But you can't…" "It's a long story sad Edward. He explained and then told me to go and enrol Anthea and Nic. I took my car. Nic sat in the front. And Anthea in the back. "So you're in year 12 both of you?" I asked " Yup, we sure are," replied Nic, I then remembered, "We are having a formal. Next week on Saturday, you guys should come." "I think we will." Said Nic. "Boys ask girls?" he then said, "Nope, put two names in a hat, then you choose one. Or something like that, my sisters have something up their sleaves." I said, this was going really well. " I know who I'm putting down." said Nic. EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKKKKKKK! This was going to be soooooo freaking good!
Please Review and we will give you a ....umm...Emmett Cullen!
