I woke again and thought I was home. I was lying on something that felt very much like my bed. But it still felt wrong. The pillow was too soft and my bear wasn't there. (I know it's weird but I still sleep with my favorite bear.) Then the memories of what had happened rushed at me. I squinted my eyes open and saw that the room I was in was too uncluttered and light to be my room. I closed them again and moaned. I couldn't believe I was actually in Forks, Washington in the Cullen's house.

"Finally, you're awake," said a voice gruffly.

I sat bolt straight and looked for the owner of the voice. Then something moved in the corner and I jumped. He just appeared from the wall it looked like. I don't know how he could have been standing there. He was too dark to have blended in with the white walls.

He had coal black hair that was a bit longer than normal and had a stern face. He wasn't frowning but he wasn't exactly smiling either. He had on a black button down shirt with the sleeves rolled up showing off his thin but muscular arms and had black jeans on with black boots. He had a sort of badass look to him and I bet that if there was something strong enough that he would have an earring. He was of course pale but eyes weren't as golden as the others and I was afraid that he was maybe thirsty.

As I looked him over he gave a snort and said uncaringly, "Nick."

"Jacky," I said fascinated in what I was seeing. He looked so perfect though I knew all vampires were perfect looking. The Cullens in the woods should have prepared me but it had been dark in there. I couldn't see that well with my weak human eyes. Now I had my first real look at a vampire. Then I remembered something. I didn't remember any Nick in the books.

I was just about to ask something about him when Alice skipped into the room. She smiled at Nick and me and saw the look on my face as I gazed at him. He gave another snort before leaving the room in a blink of an eye. I looked at the corner he had been standing in startled before I looked at Alice. She was now sitting on the edge of my makeshift bed and she seemed deeply upset about something. A second later another guy walked into the room calmly.

Alice looked at him troubled before he nodded and turned to me. 'This must be Edward,' I thought.

A look of surprise flashed across his face before his face set into a mask of calm. I looked him over. He was as perfect as Nick with auburn hair and golden eyes. He wore a dark gray turtleneck and dark blue jeans. He looked me over too before saying, "How are you feeling?"

"Fine," I replied though inside I was screaming, 'I'm not fine! I'm in a house full of vampires! How would you feel waking up knowing your wish had come true?'

Another look of surprise flashed across his face this time followed by confusion. I realized that he had just heard my thoughts and I clamped my hand over my mouth though how that could have stopped my thoughts I don't know.

"You know what we are?" he asked tentatively. He was probably wondering how I could have possibly known when I had just woken up.

I nodded my head eyes wide. His brows furrowed and he held his chin with his hand in concentrated thought. Alice's eyebrows shoot up and she looked at me with wonder. That was when I got a good look at her. She was quite pretty and still reminded me of a pixie. She had mocha brown hair that was brushed at the ends to sweep up at a curl. Her eyes were warmer than Edward's probably because she was friendlier than him.

"Really?" she asked. "How do you know?"

'You're only the characters from my favorite saga,' I thought. I looked up at Edward but his eyebrows just went up a degree. "I've read about you."

"Where?" she asked. She was starting to get excited and I leaned back. I wasn't an extremely expressive person except if it's remotely sad and her excitement was making me nervous. (I've been known to cry watching the Fox and Hound. Sad, I know.)

"Um…" I didn't want to quite say I read about you from a fantasy book written about a dream someone had once. I was afraid that they would think I was mad and ship me off to a funny farm. Carlisle could have a straight jacket stored somewhere.

Edward gave a chuckle at the thought of the straightjacket. "She'll tell us when she thinks we won't put her into a straightjacket."

I glared at him. I didn't like it that he read my thoughts and then told people what I had been thinking.

"Why would we do that?" she asked.

Edward was about to open his mouth but I beat him to it, "It doesn't matter."

Just then Carlisle walked into the room with Esme. They smiled at me and Carlisle asked, "How are you feeling Jacky?"

"Fine, though Edward is annoying me by reading my mind."

His face looked surprised as he looked at everyone in the room and his face looked mildly interested when he rested his gaze on me. "What are you talking about?"

"Apparently, she knows all about us," said Edward.

Then Rosalie appeared with a hiss, "Great! Another human knows about us."

"Rosalie," said Carlisle sternly. She glared a moment at me before disappearing again.

All of this was too much. First, I wake up and see the most beautiful guy I've ever seen. (I'm sorry Vincent.) I meet my two favorite characters from the story. I met Edward and I haven't even met Bella yet. I wonder if she was human or a vampire yet.

Edward's eyebrows and mouth scowled as the thought crossed my mind but didn't comment on it.

I went to pull my fingers through my hair, which I do when I'm nervous but found it, was all tangled up and had some bark in it. I blushed a light shade before I asked quietly to Alice if I could possibly wash my hair. I might as well have said it in a normal tone.

"Of course. Alice will show you to the shower and we'll leave you alone. I'm sure all of this overwhelming to you," said Carlisle.

'You have no idea,' I thought.

Edward gave a snort and left though I'm sure he had some questions burning in his mind. I might not be a mind reader but I know when someone is agitated about something.

The rest left me to go do whatever and Alice showed me to the shower and where I can find shampoo and soap. As I soaked up the hot water I couldn't help but wonder what Nick had thought of my appearance.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

When I had washed my hair and had scrubbed myself pink, I started to brush my hair with a brush I had found. It felt so good to get clean after spending a night in a forest. My hair was yet again a wave of ebony. Vincent always called me his little raven because of it. I looked at my self in the mirror and gave a sigh. You would never believe that I lived near a beach. While my friends had healthy looking tans my skin was quite pale though before I had always smiled thinking I looked like a vampire. And I always reminded myself that paleness used to be a mark of beauty in the Middle Ages and before that.

I guess I couldn't be called skinny though it didn't stop the guys at school from hounding me. My dark sapphire blue eyes looked back at me with a mixture of excitement and fear. What was I going to do in a house full of vampires? Especially Nick, he seemed a bit thirsty and I hope that before I see him again that he had already gone hunting.

I was wearing some clothes that I had found on the counter where I had put my dirty ones, which I couldn't find anywhere so I guessed Alice must be playing dollies with me. I had on a soft blue dress that felt and looked too good to have come from Wal-Mart. It stuck close to my form showing my curves. It went down to the middle of my calf with a slit to my knee and it had a halter-top. I was rather uncomfortable in it and planned to ask Alice for different clothes later.

Just as I was thinking that Alice showed up with a slight frown on he face but it wasn't a serious frown. More like a pout than anything.

"You don't like the dress?"

I was stunned for a moment before I remembered that she saw the future and that she probably saw me asking her for different clothes.

"It's fine. Fine. It's just that…"

"She isn't comfortable in it," said a voice at the door. I looked behind Alice and couldn't help but blush. Nick was leaning on the doorframe looking me up and down in such a brazen way that I kept growing a darker shade of red.

"But she looks so good in it. Don't you think so Nick?"

Nick shrugged but I could that he didn't take his eyes off of me and I was starting to notice that his eyes were growing darker. I felt my blush drain from my face and his eyes lightened. He gave a smirk then left. I have a feeling he likes to test how much of my scent he can take. Alice snapped me out of my thoughts.

"Here I brought you some clothes that you were going to ask me for."

She handed me a bundle of clothes and left. I could sense that she felt a bit dejected so I put away the dress for later to surprise her though I doubt it would really surprise her. Also I sort of liked the way Nick was looking at me.
