March 2013
After being in Forks for a month something pretty big has happened, something that I needed to tell my family because if I was going to even continue any further with my thoughts then I need their support for all of it.
" I know you all are wondering why I am conducting this meeting... well everyone aside from Rosalie and Edward who can't keep his mind reading away from anyone.. so.." I look at my brother who is rolling his eyes but smiling at my small form in front of our family and the Hales who are pretty much apart of our family since My parents have known them for.. well... forever!
" I think... I found my soul mate." immediately my mom smiled ear to ear and my brother, Jasper, and Rosalie start hooting and jeering. I laugh with nervous butterflies in my stomach as I wait for my dad's reaction. He was the one that I needed to convince that this was real, that what I was feeling wasn't just feelings brought up from being lonely in a family full of partners who loved each other to the end of the Earth and back.
He leans forward in his seat next to my mom, " Alice, you have to make sure this is real and you aren't just having odd feelings. We just moved here so I think you should explore these feelings before acting upon them otherwise we are all glad that you've found your soul mate. It's someone from school I'm assuming?" He asks before looking over everyone else in the room. I look down at my nails before stuffing my hands in the pockets of my skinny jeans and begin biting my bottom lip.
" Yeah... actually, she's Emmett's sister." I confess for the first time to my family who didn't quite know that I was more attracted to women especially the nerdy one that wears those adorable thick black rimmed glasses and looked so comfortable with her friends. They noticed my concern for what I thought they would think about my preference so my parents quickly spoke up.
" Alice, you know what we already think about you loving the same sex. It's natural baby and just like Edward, we still love you. No matter what." Mom said before adding something she forgot to mention, " Oh and Emmett's sister better not hurt you though because I'm not sure that I'll be very civil if that happens." my mother comments before smirking then standing to hug my body against hers. I look over to my dad who is smiling that genuine smile of his and then to everyone else who looks just as happy to see me finally find the one for me.
Dinner came and went, soon the Hale's were leaving to go to their home and ours was beginning to settle down for the night while my mind kept its pace with thoughts of Bella, wishing that there were more hours in the day so that I could see more of her at school.
She always looked so enthusiastic with her friends but alone from them, she turned into stone, a person without emotions... it wasn't the Bella I wanted to see.
I hear my door creak open before Edward spoke, " May I come in?" With an approving nod, I don't move from my lying position on my bed as I flip through a magazine that I was only using to ruse my family into assuming that I was my normal self, but I wasn't because Bella was consuming everything about me which scared me, I won't lie about it. All of this was just so confusing but it felt good.
The bed dips when Edward sits beside me before taking my position, laying on his stomach to look at the blurred pages.
" 'How to please your man' Well unless Bella has something that I haven't been told about though that's not my business..." Looking at the page, I had stopped on, my cheeks redden before I quickly flip the next article. Edward chuckles then bumps his shoulder lightly against mine, " I know that right now your mind is a tornado of thoughts, it happens to all of us and there isn't a way to get rid of it, not until you just relax about it. The time will come when you should act and you will know when that time is here."
I sigh before looking over to my brother, " But what if I don't know when it's time?" My brother gives me a loving look before kissing my cheek and standing up to walk towards my door.
" Trust me, you'll know."
Apologizes for the late chapter! Thanks for reading! Favorite and Review! :)
