Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters. Stephenie Meyer does...aww. Well, here is a shot at Chapter 1.
EPOV
I arrived at the Swan residence. It was small yet it looked comfortable. I think I will enjoy living here. I didn't hear anyone's thoughts inside so, no one is home.
BPOV
Edward Anthony Masen has arrived. I heard a car door slam outside. I know it wasn't Charlie; there was an emergency in Portland.
I decided to greet him before he came to the door. I didn't want to seem anxious though. I don't really care.
I opened the door and there was a Greek god. Pale white. Beautiful. A chiseled face and body – I could tell through his tight black t-shirt – with the most gorgeous topaz eyes and unusually colored messy bronze hair. And he was my brother.
He looked confused and startled.
Even if he wasn't, he would never like me. I was too plain, too ordinary, too boring. Who wouldn't want him?
What happened to his parents?
Anyways, hopefully he won't be bored with me – hopefully, he'll like me.
EPOV
I was startled when the front door opened. Not because it opened but there was the most gorgeous, best smelling, human I have ever seen; and I couldn't hear her thoughts. My throat burned.
She was very fair-skinned, with long brown hair, and warm chocolate eyes. She had a heart shaped face and full lips- a bit too full for her jaw. She was about 5 foot 4 and slender. I could tell she wasn't active.
She had on dark jeans, a yellow top, orange flats, and a green pendant.
It was adorable how she just stood there. It looked like she was speculating.
"Hello, are you Bella Swan?" I asked her.
"…Oh, yes. Yes, I am. Umm….you're Edward Masen…?" She stuttered. It was so adorable; her voice was like wind chimes. She smelled too good. Luckily, I just came back from hunting.
"Yes…" I didn't know what to say for the first time in my existence.
It looked like she snapped out of a daze. "Well then, come in!" she said quite enthusiastically.
BPOV
Edward's voice was like music. It was even better. I made a fool of myself by stuttering and staring.
We shook hands and it was so cold and hard. I felt a bolt of electricity running through my veins. It was unbelievably cold. It was like touching a corpse or a statue. He was still perfect though. I blushed and my heart fluttered. He smiled a crooked smile.
I gave him a tour of the house.
"You have a really lovely home." He said.
"Now it's also yours." I said, blushing. He just smiled and he had perfect, straight, white teeth. "Your room is Charlie's old room. He moved into the guest room."
He smiled another dazzling, crooked smile. My heart fluttered.
"So, I'll let you settle in and I'll go finish making dinner." I said.
"Okay." Was all he said, emotionless.
EPOV
Human food. Disgusting. Ugh! How am I going to do this charade? I will always have to put on a façade. This is going to be interesting. But, why can't I read her thoughts?
It was so adorable how she always blushed a gorgeous scarlet color and how her heart fluttered.
But, when we shook hands I felt a bolt of electricity. It was magic. I felt weird and shocked.
I wonder why Chief Swam moved to the guest room. I feel bad. He should keep his room. I walked in anyways.
It was cozy. It wasn't too big or too small. I could survive.
Luckily, since I don't sleep, I have my laptop and CD player. It would be strange if I played music in the middle of the night. But, I could put it on really low and only I will hear it thanks to my perfect hearing.
I smelled an aroma of putrid food. If I was a human, it would have smelled delicious but it doesn't. I heard a car pull up and thoughts of a man I wonder if Edward is there yet. I hope he isn't a 16 year old perverted brat. I hope Bella and he will get along.
I could hear – who I assumed to be- Charlie's thoughts fine. Hmm….I have to investigate that further.
I heard loud – well they seemed loud – footsteps come up onto the porch. The door opened and a man, Chief Swan, yelled out, "Hello?"
"Hey dad. Just finishing up dinner." Bella answered.
"Hey Bells…where's Edward?"
" Upstairs in his room." Her heart fluttered.
Charlie mumbled an "oh."
"Dinner is ready!" Bella yelled. Great! Ugh, I have to eat that disgusting human food and then throw it up. Oh gosh. What did I get myself into?
Well I hope you enjoyed it. Review please. I know it's short. It will be longer next time. I promise, it just felt like a good place to stop :\ .
Review!!!
