Natalie slowly walked out of Alice's room and walked into the livingroom. Carlise was the only one in the living room so far, and he was fixing his tie in a mirror.

"Well look who cleans up awful pretty!" Carlise said as he walked towards her. Natalie just blushed and looked down, "I always forget you can blush. And eat. Nessi eats with us, but what about you? I know I seen you eating earlier and I didn't know if you were hungry again."

"I'm actualy kind of hungry. Should I run out real quick and get something?" Natalie was walking towards the door when Carlise laughed and walked her back to the couch.

"No, you can order room service, on me. You are my guest I can't have you running around just because we don't eat. So what would you like? I hear this place has amazing food."

"Umm, I don't know. Maybe a good steak?"

"Perfect! I will order it." Carlise walked over to the room phone and started talking to the woman down at the desk. He was reaching around to get his wallet and then he pulled out a hundred dollar bill. He hung up the phone and handed the bill to Natalie, "Tip the person that delivers the food, please." Then he walked off into his room.

Natalie was again all alone in the livingroom. She walked around for a minute then made her way over to the balcony. Their room was almost at the top and she had a great view on Italy, it was just after sunset and all the lights of the city were begining to turn on. A gentle wind blew across the bare skin of her arm and she gave a light shiver. So she walked back into the room to get her jacket when she seen Jacob sitting on the couch in his suit. He still had a particularly sour look on his face as she walked past him to get her jacket. As she got really close to him he took a huge breath and got up. When she turned around he was right behind her, staring her down.

"I'm sorry if I'm bothering you. I just wanted to get my jacket, its kind of cold out there." Natalie stamered as she looked at the ground.

"Its fine. I was just smelling your perfume. And admiring your ass. Cute little round thing." He grinned as he looked down at her trembling, "You got a lighter?" Natalie just nodded and skittered off to get her backpack. She came back with an orange bic and Jacob took it from her and motioned for her to come out with him. The two walked back out on the balcony and Jacob shut the sliding glass door behind them. He then reached in his pocket and pulled out a pack of cigerettes, he lit one up and blew the smoke in her face.

"So have you ever fucked? With a body like that you must get some all the time. I would pound the shit out of that every night." he sat looking her up and down hungrirly and kept puffing off the cigarette, "Well? Have you?"

"Oh. No I haven't." Natalie shivered again and kept her eyes down.

"Put the damn jacket on. I don't want to look at you sit there and shiver." he said rather angrirly and Natalie popped up and started to put her arms threw the tight arm holes of her leather jacket. She sat back down and looked up for a split second. He was staring at her and she felt like he was going to burn holes in her if he kept up staring the way he was.

"If you don't mind me asking, but what are you to the family? I know your not a vampire and everyone is already paired up. So you can't be someone's mate." Natalie said barely above a whisper. He just flicked the butt of his cigarette off the balcony and sat back.

"I'm Nessi's mate. We imprinted on each other. But you know for now its all cuddles and gentle bullshit. Since shes like the size of a five year old." he got up and stood next to Natalie and started to whisper, " But I'm still a man. I have needs, sexual needs. And your the first hybryd female we have come across. So needless to say you get me going. I have an idea what Nessis going to look like, feel like and taste like." With that he turned her face towards his and had a firm grip on her face and was about to kiss her when the door bell rang. He let go of her face and Natalie sighed in relief and jumped up, brushing past Jacob to get to the balcony door. Jacob grabbed her arm and pulled her close to him.

"You better not tell anyone. I'm made to kill vampires, and your alot softer than regular vampires." he hissed in her ear. All she could do was nod, and he released her. She practicaly ran to the front door. She took a deep breath and opened the door to see a very handsome young Italian man standing in the door with a tray. He started to say the usual greeting when he seen her and his jaw just dropped. He stood in awe for a moment before Natalie waved at him and he fell back down to earth.

"Umm. Madame..I umm have meat for you. I mean I have your meat. No! I have your food." he just blushed and handed her the tray and looked down in shame. Natalie took the tray and set it down on a little end table, she came back and the poor guy was still blushing.

"Hey don't feel bad. We all stumble with our english sometimes." he looked up at her and finaly smiled. He stood alittle straighter and started to grin, " Thank you alot. I'm sorry for making any trouble. And this is for you." Natalie sheepishly held out the bill and his eyes bulged again. He looked up at her in questioning and she just giggled, " I know! I did the same thing, but it is all for you. Good night." He started to grin again and skipped merrily away, she then shut the door and turned to her meal. Jacob had disappeared from the balacony and she went and sat on the couch and started to eat.

She was just about done with it when Bella come out into the livingroom. She was wearing a beautiful golden wrapp dress that made her look like a godess. Her make up was also gold and played up the gold highlights she had. Edward came out second, in a sharp suit of course. The pair were chatting quietly and Bella looked over her shoudler and gave Natalie a little wink. Esme and Carlise came out arm in arm. Esme looked ravishing in all black. She only had alittle bit of eyeliner and lip gloss on, but she still looked elegant. Emmet came strutting out of his room, loosening his tie as he walked. As he strutted out Natalie caught his eye and he trotted over with a big grin on his face.

"Look at you! Alice got ahold of you and you didn't die! Told you you would be safe. Sort of!" he was laughing so hard it made Natalie laugh and then the rest of the room fell into laughter. Rosalie had walked into the middle of this and was dumbfounded. But even dumbfounded she was absolutly amazing. She was wearing a floor length red red and her blonde hair was loosely curled and flowing. But the most striking part of her were her blood red lips. They were so amazing, glittering and dancing everytime she spoke.

Alice and Jasper were last to join the group. Alice was wearing what looked like should have belonged to a fairy queen. The pink fabric fluttered and glistened everytime she moved about, fixing everyone up. But most amazing were the heels she was wearing. The heels had to have been atleast eight inches high and she glided around on them like flats. Jasper was wearing a suit that matched Alice's dress, he had a pink pocket square and pink shoes. But it was all still very handsome. He came and sat next to her and watched as Alice fixed ties and re-applied lip gloss and fluffed hair.

"You know your part of the family now." he looked at her and smiled.

"Oh I am?" Natalie said surprised.

"Yeah, once Alice dresses you up, you become family. She doesn't do this with everyone you know. You must very special if as soon as she meets you she does this for you." he patted her on the shoulder and got up to talk to Emmet. Natalie just sat in amazement. She had never been welcomed into someone's family before. She started to feel all warm and fuzzy. The all of a sudden she got up and walked over to Alice and gave her a big hug.

"Thank you so much. I've never felt prettier or more welcome." Natalie contiued to hug Alice, then Esme came up and wanted to hug Natalie, then Bella, Rosalie and each of the guys. Carlise was last to give Natalie a hug and he held the longest.

"You are our blessing. You have no idea. We have met many other male hybryds, but only one other female. But she wasn't very helpful. So we would really like if you stayed with us and helped us figure out the mystery of our baby." Carlise let go and Natalie looked around the room. Everyone looked so nice and she could tell this was an amazing group of vampires. Then the tears started to whell in her eyes, all she could do was nod.
