Edward's eyes widened in shock. Rosalie and Jasper looked surprised and slightly disapproving. Emmett laughed his booming laugh.
"So Carlisle finally got some!" He yelled.
"Uh… well, see it's a long story…" I stuttered, trying to come up with a reasonable answer.
Alice tapped her foot impatiently. "Well, we've got forever."
"She's not like a normal human. She's… different. I don't know what it is, but I'm attracted to her in every way. Her blood is the sweetest thing I've ever smelled and it almost made me lose control and attack her."
"Wow. You? You're Mr. Control! That's interesting…" Alice said, looking surprised. "But that still doesn't explain her location and lack of clothing."
"Well… like I said, I'm attracted to her in every way. She was at the hospital and I gave her a ride home. I felt like I just needed to be close to her. And then we started talking and came back here and I don't know it just… happened." I tried to explain how I felt. "I feel connected to her, like I need her to be with me. Forever."
"Wow." Alice said again.
Just then, Bella appeared at the top of the stairs, wearing my boxers and a t-shirt, rubbing her eyes and yawning.
"Carlisle? What's going on? I heard voices… oh. Uh, hi guys. This is awkward." She said, blushing when she saw my family watching her.
Alice grinned. "Hi Bella! Sleep well?" She said excitedly.
"Well, it's like four in the morning, but yeah, I did. Why are you guys even awake?" Bella replied, very confused.
Alice turned to me, glaring. "You didn't tell her?!" She yelled.
"No… I was getting to that. I was just going to let her sleep some more." I said sheepishly.
"Tell me what? Seriously, what's going on?" Bella looked impatient now. She came down the stairs, but being her, she tripped. I ran over to her with vampire speed and caught her before she hit the ground.
Bad idea. I helped her stand up and then quickly let go of her, not meeting her eyes.
"How did you get over here? What the hell are you?!" Bella sounded a little angry by now.
I exchanged a glance with Alice. "Um… do you want to sit down?" I asked Bella.
"Okay." She agreed and walked into the living room, curling up on the couch. I sat across from her on a chair, trying to give her some space. She wouldn't want me near her after this. The rest of my family sat down too, Alice on the couch next to Bella, but the rest of them giving her space as well.
When I was silent for a few minutes, Bella spoke again. "Are you going to tell me? The truth?"
I finally looked up at her and nodded. "Yes." I said sincerely. She smiled slightly.
"So… really, are you even human?" She asked, looking nervous, like she might offend us.
"No." I said, looking down again.
Bella sighed when I hesitated. "Just spit it out Carlisle." She said.
"We're vampires." I whispered just loud enough for her to hear.
She was silent for a long time. "Seriously?" She asked after a while.
"Yes." I said, still refusing to look at her.
"Shouldn't you be drinking my blood or something?" She asked, honestly confused.
"We only drink animal blood. That's how we live with humans." I explained. "We are still very dangerous, though and I completely understand that you won't want anything to do with us. I just ask that you not tell anyone about this."
"Okay, first of all, who would I tell? They would think I was crazy. And second of all, what do you mean I want nothing to do with you? I'm not going anywhere." She said and my head shot up.
I stared at her, confused. "What? You should be scared, disgusted by me." I said, not wanting to believe her.
Bella got up and walked over to me. She stood in front of me and took my face in her hands, making me look at her. "Carlisle, I'm not scared. You had plenty of chances to hurt me, but you didn't. And I don't want to leave you. This doesn't change how I feel or what I said to you last night."
I glanced at Jasper, to see if she was really feeling this. He nodded at me, shocked by her emotions. I looked back at Bella and smiled slightly. "Really?" I asked, still a bit unsure.
"Really." She whispered and leaned down, kissing me softly. I kissed her back gently, my hands moving to wrap around her waist, holding her close to me. After a bit, she pulled away and smiled at me hesitantly. I grinned at her and pulled her down onto my lap, wrapping my arms around her as she curled up into my chest.
Edward had been silent this entire time. He stood up suddenly and left, going up to his room and slamming the door behind him. Bella flinched and moved closer to me.
"Does he have a problem with me?" She asked.
"He likes you and he's jealous." Alice said happily, bouncing in her seat. "I'm so glad you're okay with us Bella! We're gonna be sisters and best friends! Do you like shopping?"
Bella looked surprised, but shook it off and smiled happily at Alice. "Sometimes, yeah." She seemed pleased with the idea of being friends and sisters.
"So what are real vampires like? I mean, you guys come outside during the day and stuff…" Bella said.
"Well…"

BPOV
I spent the rest of the morning at the Cullen's house, learning about vampires. The family members all told me their stories. Carlisle was nervous when he told me his, and told me how old he really was, like I would be disgusted by the fact that he was over 300 years old.
He was watching me carefully the entire time, as if waiting for it to sink in. Apparently I should be terrified, but I honestly wasn't. It was a lot to digest, but I trusted that they wouldn't hurt me.
It was funny, I already felt so close to all of them, like my family. Especially Carlisle. Even though it had only been a day, I felt like I knew him so well. And he knew almost everything about me from us talking so much. We were already acting like a couple, and I realized that I was starting to fall in love with him. Everything was moving very fast, but I liked it.
Eventually, being human caught up to me when my stomach growled.
Carlisle chuckled. "Lunchtime for the human?" He joked.
I glared at him playfully. "Shut up."
"Come on, we'll go out to get you food. We don't have any here." He said.
"But I'm comfy!" I complained. I had been lying on him all day and it was comfy, even if a little cold.
"But you're hungry too. And you have to move eventually."
"Fine." I grumbled. "But I don't have any other clothes."
"I'm sure Alice will let you borrow some." He replied.
"Alright! I'm out of excuses! Let's go already!" I got up and went upstairs to find Alice.
She bounced out of her room and grabbed my hand, pulling me back inside it.
"GO!" She yelled to Jasper and he quickly left the room, mouthing 'good luck' to me as he went.
Alice dove into her enormous closet and started rummaging around for something for me to wear, chatting the whole time. She finally emerged with some gray skinny jeans and a cute t-shirt. I was glad she kept it simple, and she didn't even make me wear that much makeup. I had a feeling this was a rare occurrence, though, because of the way she dressed.
I went back downstairs to find Carlisle dressed as well, waiting for me. He took my hand, smiling, and led me out to his car.
PLEASE review and tell me what you think!
