As I made my way back to my room, I couldn't help but smile. From what I knew about Edward so far is that he would try to do anything to make me happy and I would use this to my full advantage. I just needed him to believe that I had submitted to him, if he had any doubts about it then my plan would not work.
Upon entering my room, I decided to relax a little before dinner as I would have to be convincing about turning over my new leaf. The room he had given me was beyond anything I could have imaged and totally nothing like my old room I had at home. My old room just had a twin bed, a computer desk with ancient computer, a chest of draws and wardrobe. This room however I guess was his way of showing me he wanted me to be comfortable, even though he was way off the mark. To my right were two bay windows were I liked to sit and read or just stare at the outside world. Since the windows had bars and could not be open, there was no chance of escaping on a bed sheet ladder out the window as I had originally planned. The floor was covered in a dark brown carpet, the softest I had ever felt. The bed which has made from what looked like hand carved wood. It was a deep brown color king size bed with purple silk covers. To my left was a bathroom which was beyond elaborate, I mean who needs 2 sinks and shower heads in there bathroom? Next to the bathroom was a walking closet, well more like the size of my old room that how big it was. It was filled with all different clothes and shoes, everything I could ever want I guess, but none of it impressed me. I just wanted my old room.
I let out a long yarn as I made my way over to the bed. I kicked off my shoes and settled in under the covers. I closed my eyes started to think about what started all of this. Even though I don't remember all of what happened, I still remember the first time I saw Edward…
Forks, Washington 20 years ago…..
I was upstairs looking out my window, for once it wasn't raining so I was waiting for my mum so we could go our side and play. A big truck pulled up into the next door driveway. My father said that someone bought the house next door and would be moving in soon, but I didn't really pay too much attention. "Bella honey, are you ready?" my mother called out from down stairs.
"Yes mommy" I answered back as I made my way down stairs.
When I got down I saw my mom with a container in her hand. It looked like she was going to welcome the new neighbors with some of her cooking. Poor neighbors were most likely going to get poisoned from whatever my mother threw together.
"Come on Bella, we are going to meet the new neighbor" she said as she grabbed a hold of my hand and we made our way out the front door.
We made our way over to the house; my mom knocked on the front door and started to fidget while waiting for someone to answer. It was a nervous habit she had. I was about to asked her to relax when the door opened. Before me stood one of the most beautiful women I had even seen.
"Hello, I am so sorry to keep you waiting. My Name is Esme Cullen" she said is her soft voice
"Hello Esme, My name is Renee Swan and my daughter Isabella. We just came over to welcome you and your family to the neighborhood" My mum said as she handed Esme the container of contaminated food.
"Well isn't that very sweet of you, I'm sorry my husband and son aren't here at the moment but they are due anytime now. I came a little earlier to start setting up the house for them, would you like to come in for some tea?" Esme asked
I didn't really hear the rest of the conversation as I heard the sound of another car pull up to the house. It was black car with tinted windows. The driver's door opened and a man with blond hair appeared. He was very handsome. The passenger back door opened and a young boy stepped out. He has the most usually colored hair I had ever seen; it looked almost bronze in the daylight and was stick up in all crazy directions. As they approached as, his eyes locked on to mine I noticed they were the bright green. Slowly a crocked smile began to form on his lips and he tugged on I'm guessing his father leg and whispered something in his ear. Hi father then looked at me and the same smile appeared on his face, he glanced back down at his son and nodded in agreement.
At this stage, I turned back round and tucked my head in to my mother leg trying to hide from them. I could feel their eyes on me.
"Ah here they are, Renee this is my Husband Carlise and my son Edward, Carlise this is Renee Swan, our new next door neighbor and her daughter Isabella"
"Pleasure to met you both" my mom replied
"Bella, why don't you say hello to Mr Cullen and Edward sweetie, sorry she is a bit shy" Mom said as she try to remove me from her leg I now held in a death grip. I knew I was going to lose my grip so I pulled it away from mom's leg and gazed up "nice to meet you Mr Cullen" I said in a small voice. I brought my head down and look at Edward closely for the first time. "And you to Edward"
A sharp knock at the door bought me back to the present; I must have fallen asleep as it was getting dark outside. I slowly made my way over to the door in my still half asleep haze only to have the person knocked again, geez could they be any more impatient. I opened the door to find Edward on other side.
