Chapter 2

It felt like a two-ton boulder hitting me square in the chest. "Oof!" was all I could get out before I hit the ground. As I tried to get my breath back I heard Edward growling and telling someone to take it easy. I struggled to my feet I saw that the source of my sudden fall was none other than a hyperactive Alice.

"Hi Alice", I said bracing myself for the impact.

"HHHHHIIIIIIIII BELLA!" Wham! She smacked into me again. This time however, I was ready. I braced myself and didn't fall over.

"Alice, I told you to take it easy!" Edward hissed.

"Sorry Bella" Alice said.

"It's alright Alice."

Then I noticed two people I thought must be Edward's parents watching us with some amount of amusement.

"Bella these are my parents, Carlisle and Esme." Esme came forward first

"Hello it's very nice to meet you." Esme could only be described as dovelike. And Carlisle is more like a cougar. "Hi" I said. Then what could only be described as the largest seventeen-year-old in the world came over and gave me a hug that actually lifted me off of the ground.

"Hi Emmett." I gasped.

"Hey there little pup." Emmett replied cheerfully. Alice was suddenly bouncing very fast and saying please over and over so fast that I could barely hear it, and Edward was just shaking his head and saying no. Then he turned to me and said,

"Bella you can say no, please keep that in mind."

"What are you talking about Edward?" I asked. Suddenly Alice said "I'veneverseenawerewolftransformwillyoupleaseshowmeBellaPLEASE!"

"Umm, Sure I guess" I said tentatively.

"YAYY!" Alice shrieked. We all went outside (so that I didn't break anything) and I went to the middle of their front yard and cleared my mind so that I could transform, then whoosh I transformed into a wolf. As a wolf I stand about 6 feet tall and I weigh a lot, although in my defense it's all muscle. Anyway the short and short of it is I'm pretty impressive. Alice gasped and ran over to give me a hug and admire me. Suddenly Edward growled and tackled Emmett

"Ab-so-lute-ly not!" He accented each word with a punch in the face.

"What the hell's going on?!" I shrieked.



"He wants to challenge you to a wrestling match!" Edward spat.

"Is that all? Come on Edward I can take him." I said.

"But Bella what if he hurts you?" Edward whined in his perfect angelic voice.

"Relax, nothings going to happen" I replied soothingly. "I'll just wrestle him, beat him, and then we can get on with our day, alright?"

"Yeah, sure I guess" Edward replied grudgingly.
