As we stopped in front of the house I saw Esme driving up and parking behind my Volvo, she must have been out buying something new for the house.
"Can you smell it?" she asked no-one in particular
"Yes, how did they get in to the House?" Emmett asked
"I definitely locked the door before I left, I never forget!!" Esme was getting very panicked, she knew what might have to be done if a human had figured out our secret. We might have to kill them. The thoughts of my siblings mirrored mine, and Jasper sent out calming waves to everyone, though I think they were mainly for Esme.
"Thank you Jasper" Esme said, he nodded his head in acknowledgment. But then his face changed, he looked like he was deeply perturbed about something. I tried to hear what he was thinking about, his thoughts were quick and jumbled up they were mostly about blood, I thought perhaps he was worried he would attack the human.
"Wait something's not right!" he said suddenly breaking the silence
"Yes Jasper, there's a human in the house!!" Emmett said in a very patronizing voice, I could tell he was mad he wouldn't get a chance to beat the person into the ground.
"No Dufus, the smell, something's not right with the smell, it smells human but I'm not lusting for their blood! It's like the smells there but the blood isn't. And listen-"
We all stopped dead and listened.
Nothing.
Rosalie was the first to break the silence, clearly bored "There's nothing Jasper, there is no sound."
"Exactly, no heartbeat!"
We all looked at each other and then at the door. No-one moved, we just stood there watching the door as if we thought it would suddenly grow a mouth and tell us who was in the house. And although no-one would admit it, at that point everyone was a little afraid of who or what was in our home.
"Well I guess we better go in!"
SMACK
"Ow! Rosie what was that for?"
"Are you mentally retarded Emmett? We can't go in, we have no idea who's in there!"
"Well we can't just stand out here, we have to go in at some point, and we're not going to find out what's in there until we do!"
I hate to admit it but this time Emmett was right, this was our home and we couldn't just run away from the problem.
We all nodded and started towards the door
We walked in through the door and into the living room. Everything was still in it's place, so we could be sure that they didn't destroy the place looking for clue's. Jasper, Emmett and myself were in the front and the girls were behind us. The scent was a lot stronger inside, and as I got a good whiff I realized just how nice it was. It smelt like freesia's and lavender. I automatically followed it wanting to know what could have created such a beautiful smell. We walked up the stairs, being as quiet as we could, and down the hall until we were standing at the door of Carlisle's office, where the thing that had invaded our home was. I carefully turned the handle and pushed the door open, where I was met with two dark brown eyes!
They were beautiful, absolutely mesmerizing, the type that were so deep I feared if I looked much more I would drown in them. I looked up and realized I had been staring at her for nearly a full minute. The rest of my family seemed to be quite taken with her as well. As I got a good look at her I also realized that it was not only her eyes that were beautiful. Her face was heart shaped and framed by luscious mahogany locks that fell to her waist, her skin was pale but still looked perfect. She was sitting behind Carlisle's desk with her feet up on the desk looking as if she didn't care that six vampires had just walked in on her invading their home.
"Ah the Cullen's we finally meet!"
No-one moved, we stood in silence. She looked to the left as if trying to look around us.
"No Carlisle eh? Where is he?"
Still no-one talked. At this point she seemed a little frustrated at us, but her eyes seemed so playful. I tried to read her mind to see what she was thinking but there was nothing! It wasn't that her head was completely empty, more like there was a wall around her thoughts that I couldn't penetrate.
"Who are you?" Emmett of course was the first one to speak "What do you want?"
She laughed at that, and what a wonderful sound it was, like the most beautiful music in the world. Emmett growled at her, his thoughts were still centred round the fact that he thought she was human so when she growled back he was clearly surprised.
"We mean no harm, we only wish to know what your business with us is." Jasper of course was trying to diffuse the situation.
"I mean you no harm, if that's what you mean", clearly still annoyed at Emmett's abrupt behavior.
"And we're meant to just believe you?" Rosalie was glaring daggers at her. Growl at my husband will she?
She chuckled darkly, looking up at Rose through her lashes. "After all I've done for you, you should believe me." She glanced away quickly and seemed distant for a moment before standing up and making her way towards us. We stood tall, and I'm sure to an outsider we looked pretty intimidating. But she didn't even look at us before saying "I'm going to have to ask that you get out of the way" No-one could ignore the threat that lay under that request, but we all stood firm.
"Okay then" And with that she disappeared.
Everyone was clearly in shock, I mean she just disappeared. DISAPPEARED!! I heard giggling behind me and turned round so fast I was sure had I been human I would've gotten whiplash.
And there she stood right behind us, my family was just as bewildered as I was, and suddenly she ran. Alice was the first to snap out of it and she ran downstairs after her, quickly followed by us.
Alice had stopped at the bottom of the stairs watching the mysterious woman as she sat herself on one of the chairs. We all positioned ourselves around her blocking her exits.
"Now why don't you answer some questions" I tried to make my voice sound as cold and uninviting as possible.
"Shouldn't you wait until Carlisle gets here?" Just as the words escaped her lips I heard Carlisle's car turning into the driveway. We waited anxiously as he stepped out of the car and through the door, where he saw us all crowded round the seat. He came to stand to my left and look at the occupant of the seat, his eyes widened
"Hello Carlisle"
"Bella?!"
Ooh so Carlisle knows the mystery vampire!
