"Have fun, I'll see you tomorrow I'll be at your around 8 since we need to be there for 9," Angela said, as I got out of my car at my grandparents. Dance hadn't been so bad, and the only real reason we were there was because she needed help deciding stage props and last minute costume changes. After I had gone to Angela's for the day because I had been home I wouldn't have stopped worrying about this dinner!
"Ok I'll set my clock. Thanks for bringing me here, bye" I called as she began to drive away. Well here goes nothing.
As I began to walk up my grandparents driveway I could see that my mimi was waiting at the door and she had a creepily large smile on her face.
"Isabella, darling I'm so happy to see you. I feel like its been forever." she exclaimed, pulling me into her arms. Thats when I knew something was really up because my mimi never hugged me unless she had big news. "I see your still wasting time and money at that studio." oh and did i mention she hates that I dance.
"Mimi its good to see you too, but its only been two weeks." I reminded her as we walked in the house. " and yes I'm still dancing, are you and papi coming to my recital tomorrow?"
"Oh I think we can make it now come and sit we have special news," she said, when we walked into the dining i could see that my parents and papi were already seated. My dad looked sick and my mom looked furious. Suddenly I was very afraid to hear this announcement because my mom was never mad.
"My bells, my how pretty you look today dear." papi said as he got up to hug me. I am a grandpas girl, well being the only grandchild it was pretty obvious. I loved my grandpa he was always so supportive of me and dance unlike his wife. In his eyes I could do know wrong i was his princess and my mimi hated the way he babied me!
"Hi papi," I said as I sat next to him. "So whats this big news that everyone keeps talking about?" I tried to seem excited but on the inside I was a ball of nerves and just wanted to get this over with.
"Well sweet pea, your grandmother and I have something to tell you. See when you were a baby we met our friends from Seattle. You remember them don't you? They visited us for christmas about two years ago?" he asked, and i tried to remember all of a sudden who in the world he could be talking about, then it hit me.
"Elizabeth and Edward Masen right?" They nodded. "Yeah I remember them, why are they coming to visit again?" If this was the news I'm gonna be so mad that I worried myself for nothing.
"Well it has to do with them, you see they have a grandson named Edward and well hunni I don't know and easier way to put this, but he is going to be your husband." he tried to mumble the end part, but i heard him loud and clear.
"MY WHAT?! What are you talking about I don't even know this guy and your saying I'm gonna marry him? Have you all gone nuts?" I screamed, getting up from the table. This was not happening I am not some princess that they can just had off to the first available guy. For gods sake I'm only 18!
"A lady doesn't yell Isabella! And no we have not gone nuts now sit down and listen." She said calmly, I looked to my parents and they just sat there so I sat down because what much more could I do at this point.
"Ok, explain."
"You see when we met them when you were younger they helped us get out of some trouble we were in so we told them that we would owe them..." Papi started.
"So you just decided to give them your granddaughter?!" I asked, incredulously. I could feel the hot tears welling up in my eyes. How could they do this? What would possess them to just give me away?
"Please listen sweetie, they suggested that there youngest grandson and our youngest granddaughter would marry so that our families could become one. At the time it sounded like a good idea and it still does the are a very wealthy family very high in the society. There grandson actually just took over there law firm, he can give you every thing you could ever want and need hun." he said.
"And he is very handsome, we met him last year on vacation and he is just lovely dear. Im positive you will love him." Mimi chimed in.
I still couldn't believe my ears but the looks on there faces told me I wasn't getting out of this. I sighed in defeat at that point and I just wanted to go home. "Can we go home now? I have dance tomorrow and I'm tired." I whispered as the tears ran down my face.
"Ofcourse dear, lets go." my mother said getting up. "We will see you both tomorrow at the recital."
"We wouldn't miss it hun." Papi said as he kissed my cheek. "And please don't worry about this too much. It will all work out you'll see, by next week you will be in Seattle starting your life with a very nice young man."
"Next week?" I mumbled.
"I guess we will see you tomorrow." mimi said, not getting up from the table.
"Bye," My dad, Charlie, said as we walked out to the car. "I'm sorry hunni but he is a very nice young man and he can give you the world. You'll see."
I didn't even answer all I could do was close my eyes and try to sort out my head. The million and one thoughts that were running through it were giving me a migraine. Was he nice? Would he treat me with respect or was he immature and thought I was only there for housework and having his babies? The truth was I didn't know a goddamn thing about Edward Cullen. but apparently we were moving in together next week. I went to sleep that night trying to focus on my last dance recital that was happening in just 18 hours, but of course my mind always went back to him. My mystery husband...

So here I am sitting on a plane on my way to Phoenix, Arizona to attend my future wife's last dance recital. My future wife, gosh I couldn't stop thinking about her all night and this morning. I couldn't get her face out of my mind she was so beautiful and I could see myself with her I think thats what scared me the most. I hadn't even heard her voice and she owned me. I didn't know how she would react when I told her about my secret lifestyle but I hoped that she would be open to trying. I know it might sound selfish of me to say, but i wanted her as a submissive as well as my wife. It was a part of me and has always been. My parents live it, my siblings live it and I don't know if i could live with out it. I have always needed control so my plan is to get to know her first then break it to her slowly and only hope she will hear me out and not run for the hills screaming!
"What has you so deep in thought dear?" my mom asked from her seat. She and I had a long talk last night it turns out I actually met Isabella or so she says. Although I was 5 and she was only a couple months old so I'm pretty positive she doesn't remember me because I don't remember her.
"Just about how she must be feeling. I mean she is so young and I just can't imagine what must be going through her head because there is a lot going through mine. And with this whole secret life I don't know I just want her to like me," I told her, sheepishly.
She got up and took the seat onside of me. My family was all here except for Alice and Jasper of course but they were sleeping one of the many amenities to having a private jet was the comfort!
"She will like you and eventually she will love you. Im sure she will be shocked when you tell her about our lifestyle I know i was when your father told me what he was. But son you are a very caring person and a very good dom. You both will run into obstacles but I have a strong feeling that in the end it will only make the two of you stronger." She told me, and a part of me wanted to believe her but a smaller part of me said you are walking into fire.
"Mom she is barely legal for me to be with!"
"Lets not worry about sex and all that right now. Lets worry about getting to know her and making sure she feels comfortable."
The pilot announced that we were landing so she buckled her seatbelt and held my hand. I will admit I'm a momma's boy so knowing she supports me makes a difference.
"oh my dear you are so handsome," I heard an older women exclaim as we made our way to baggage. She came over to hug me as I looked to my mom for help. When she mouthed "Isabella's grandmother" i immediately felt nerves.
"Uhm hi Mrs. Swan its nice to see you again."
"Well lets get going I'm sorry we don't have time to stop at the house but the recital starts in an hour. My son and his wife are reserving seats," the man who I'm assuming was her grandfather said, as he led us into the waiting van.
When we all got silent my grandmother broke the silence asking how Isabella was doing?
"Oh she is fine, tired I assume she as been practicing for this thing all year and had been there since early this morning. I don't see why she bothers its not like many people make a career out of dance." her grandma said, and it sounded to me like she did not support her granddaughters hobby.
After that we rode in awkward, well awkward for me, silence as we made our way to the auditorium. I was a ball of nerves not only was I was about to meet my "fiancés" parents but I was about to see her for the first time. I don't even think i could speak properly if I had too.
Once we were there we made our way inside with five minutes to spare. We quickly found our seats and I came face to face with my in-laws.
"You must be Edward?" her mother said, after everyone else introduced themselves. She seemed nice but was also nervous and I don't know if it was because of me, for Isabella, or both.
"Yes I am, its very nice to meet you both, Mr. and Mrs. Swan," I said.
"Call us Charlie and Renee son. Your family now." her father began. When suddenly the lights deemed letting everyone know it was showtime.
I have to admit I have never been to a dance recital, but the moment those curtains opened I didn't take my eyes off the stage or off of Isabella when I could spot her. Renee had given me a program with all of her numbers marked off. She was in 10 of the 50 dances! When her solo came I was mesmerized the way she danced made me smile bigger than i ever have and when she took her final bow I caught myself clapping like an idiot. My entire family and hers eyes where on me but I didn't care. I was proud of her even though i didn't know her it must take a lot of guts to dance by yourself.
"So we thought it would be nice if you and Isabella went out to dinner tonight by yourselves to talk," her mom said, to me when it was over.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, you too should get to know each other. We are having a little going away party for her tomorrow, but tonight I think its important for you both to become acquainted," she said back. I all of a sudden felt nervous I was gonna be alone with her. "We made reservations at a nice restaurant, on us, the driver knows where to take you."
"Thank you, Renee." I smiled at her.
"Oh here she comes."
I looked in the direction her dad pointed and saw her heading toward us. She had the biggest smile on her face and it looked like she was bouncing. Ofcourse when she spotted my family she stopped and when her eyes met mine I saw the fear in them and the last thing I wanted was for her to be afraid of me. She finally reached us and looked to her parents confused and i realized that no one told her we were coming.
"Oh Bella darling you were wonderful as always!" her mother exclaimed pulling her into a hug.
"Thanks mom" she said softly, hugging her back. My god her voice was like bells, she sounded so sweet.
Her mom smiled then turned her to me, "Hunni those are the Cullens and this is Edward."
Her eyes widened as she took me in, I was a good 7 inches or more taller than her. She timidly stuck her hand out, " Hi I'm Bella, its nice to meet you."
"The pleasure is all mine Bella," I said as i took her hand and kissed. I had the pleasure of watch her blush all over. It was at that moment that I knew I could love her, she just seemed so sweet, innocent, but most of all fragile. It scared me a bit but I couldn't wait to know her and make her mine, A Cullen. That is if she'll let me.
So there is chapter 2! I hope y'all liked it!
