Chapter 2: Not So Nosey Neighbors
BPOV
When I woke up the next morning, I almost forgot where I was. Then I remembered yesterday's events and where I was. I reluctantly got out of bed and walked into the adjoining bathroom. The bathroom had a shower, bathtub, jacuzzi, sink, cabinet, and of course, a toilet. The walls were painted a blood red.
I brushed my teeth then went out to my closet. I browsed for about five minutes until I settled on a red Breaking Benjamin tank top, black jean shorts, and red converse. I went back to the bathroom to do my make up and hair, then went downstairs.
It took me awhile to locate the kitchen. I had to go through a series of hallways before I found the right door. When I finally did find it, I saw my parents sitting at the table. Chloe was no where to be seen, thank God.
I grabbed a bowl, a box of Cherrios, and a carton of milk and sat down at the breakfast bar. My parents didn't say anything about my clothes, which I'm sure would happen in 3, 2, 1...
"Isabella, what the hell are you wearing?" Charlie asked, looking over the newspaper. I mean, come on, what could be interesting,a cat stuck in a tree?
"It's something called clothing." I snapped back. I didn't even tell them to call me Bella anymore. I gave u on that by the time I was thirteen. Besides, my clothes were better than anything my sister would wear. Speak of the devil and she shall appear...
"Hey Mom. Hey Dad. Is it okay that I go to First Beach today? I met some girls yesterday who wanted to go invited me."
I turned to the door and had to stifle a snort. Chloe was standing there with a bright pink sundress, pink flip flops, and pink sunglasses. To be honest, she looked like a big pink gum drop.
"Sure sweetie," my mom said, not even looking up from her laptop. "Just be back by ten."
"KK, tootle." and with that, the wicked witch of the west was gone. Hallelujah!
"I'm gonna go meet the neighbors and look around." I said, putting my bowl in the sink. Before they could say anything, I was out the front door.
There was a lot of land between the two houses, so it took me a good five minutes to get to the next house. It was three stories tall, with a wrap around porch.
After a few deep breaths, I rang the door bell. After, I heard a few footsteps, someone answered the door.
It was a woman who looked about 28 with wavy caramel colored hair that went just passed her shoulders. She had a heart shaped face and almond colored eyes.
"Hello, can I help you?" she asked.
"Oh, um, hi. I'm Bella Swan. My family and I just moved into the house next store." I answered. I felt myself blush and quickly looked down.
"Oh, you're Bella? The whole town has been waiting for you and your family to arrive. Please come in!"
She stepped out of the way to let me by and I hesitantly stepped in. I walked in to see the living room was modern, with white couches and a huge flat screen TV. The carpet was white, as if daring someone to spill wine on it.
"Oh, I'm so rude. Let me introduce myself. I'm Esme Cullen," she said. She held out her hand and I it, worried about it being sweaty. "Now you wait here and let me get the others." And with that, she disappeared up the stairs.
I slowly went to go sit on one of the couches and got lost in my thoughts. What did Esme mean by "others"? I mean, surely she means two people. She looked to young to have that many kids. Or did she mean other relatives, like sisters and aunts?
My questions were answered when I heard feet on the stairs. I quickly stood up, preparing to meet little children. What I saw surprised me. At the front was a boy, about 17, with honey blonde hair that covered his eyes. He looked over six feet tall. Next to him was a pixie like girl, with gray eyes and spiky black hair that stood out in all directions. Behind them was a beautiful girl, who could lower anyone's self esteem, as if mine wasn't low enough. She had blonde hair and blue eyes, and looked exactly like the blonde haired boy. Next to her was a muscular guy, who looked about six foot four and had brown hair with a set of dimples. The last teenager was a beautiful bronze haired boy with piercing green eyes. He was more lanky than the other to men, but still had some muscle. At the end was Esme.
Once they were all in the living room, Esme started the introductions. "Bella, this is Jasper," the blonde boy, "His twin sister Rosalie," the beautiful blonde, "Alice," the pixie- like one, "her brother Emmett," the burly on, "and their brother Edward." Edward, the one with the unruly bronze hair. It fitted him perfectly. "Everyone, this is Bella."
The pixie like girl, who I now know is Alice, came bouncing up to me. I mean, she was literally jumping.
"Hi Bella! Oh my God, we are going to be such good friends! Imagine all the malls we could go to, all the makeovers..."
"Alice! You're scaring the hell out of her. She just got here." Jasper said. I sent him a look that said "thank you" and he just nodded.
"Well anyway, when did you get here? How long did it take? Do you have any siblings? How old are you?" Alice asked as we all started to sit down. I didn't plan on staying long, but I guess I will be staying awhile.
"Ok, well, I got here yesterday, it took us about five hours, I have a younger sister named Chloe, and I'm 16."
"She actually answered all of Alice's questions without getting annoyed! It's a miracle!" Rosalie said. Emmett, the big, scary looking one, let out a booming laugh, which caused me to chuckle. Who knew someone could be this loud?
"OMG!" Alice squealed. I actually had to cover my ears. "You'll be in the same year as Edward and I! This is fantastic!"
I looked over at Edward, who was staring at his feet. I guess he was just shy. "Hey, do you guys want to come over to my place tonight? Ya know, for dinner, we can get to know each other..." I trailed off.
"Sure, that would be great." Esme said walking out of the kitchen with a dish towel in hand. "Can we come over at around seven?"
"sure that would be great. Anyway, I have to go. Nice meeting you all." As I was walking out the door, I heard a chorus of "Bye Bella." I chuckled all the way back to the house.
