First- I AM SO SORRY!! My life has been soooo hectic since I got back from Morocco and I haven't had time to write, and then I had writers block! I know that it's not excuse but still. I'm sorry. Just so you know, I don't know how school works in other countries so we are sticking with the system in England. Each time I mention it I'll put ages and you can figure it out yourself if that is not how your schools work.

I support Southend United, play football and have only ever had one of my poems published, so therefore I am not nor will I ever be Stephanie Meyer. But hey, I'll live.

"Edward, will you come here for a second?" I stayed where I was, seated at my piano texting my latest girlfriend; Olivia. She was not drop dead gorgeous or even anywhere close, but she was a good kisser and knew how it worked. Once we'd finished, she had to bugger off. I pushed my luck even more when I heard Carlisle call me again, but I didn't really want to listen to him about my future and how I should settle down. I didn't want to nor did I think I needed to. Esme and Carlisle thought differently though. I was pulled out of my head by Alice storming into the room, snatching my phone away and dropping it into her handbag.

"I swear you better get your backside downstairs unless you want Carlisle to take away your driving rights again." That got to me. Last time I had been banned from driving, my poor baby had spent three weeks in the garage being fixed. I stood quickly, pushing the piano bench in and following Alice down the stairs. She stopped outside Carlisle's study, and I paused briefly before walking in and shutting the door behind me. I nodded towards Nick, one of our drivers, before standing in front of the large desk at the back of the room.

"You called for me, Carlisle?" I never addressed him as anything but his name because he was in no way related to me although he had taken me in when I was only a toddler. I could see that he was typing quickly on his computer, and waited for a moment before he spoke.

"Yes, take a seat, Edward; I'll just be a minute." I tilted my head in acknowledgment and sat in one of the leather chairs positioned in front of his desk. He continued to type for a minute then with one final click he turned to face me, placing his hands in front of him and locking his fingers. "I apologize for the wait but that was an email from the coach of the team, requesting final confirmation." I opened my mouth to speak but he carried on. "I wanted to talk to you about your behaviour while the team is staying with us. They will be here for four weeks and I'm sure it will be appreciated if they were still a team when the left, rather then all hating each other because of you. So I want you to stay away from them if that is at all possible for you to do." I nodded and stood, hoping that this conversation was over. Carlisle nodded his head and motioned with my hand that I was able to leave. As I pulled the door shut behind me I heard him mutter to himself.

"Who knows, maybe you'll find someone you want to stay with." Damn him! Why did he have to say that? It was going so well until then. Oh well, less then 24 hours and I could finally see the girls I had four weeks to get into my bed.

I awoke to annoying buzzing sound next to my ear. I waited for the sound to stop of its own accord and when it didn't I reached around trying to find the source. I couldn't find anything and I sat up when it continued to sound. By the time I found the buzzer under my mattress I had got out of bed and was wide awake. I knew I wouldn't wind up going back to sleep so I stalked into the bathroom, where I saw the note on the shower door. It was from Alice and when I saw the contents I growled.

Heya Edward!

By now the buzzer I put under your bed will have gone off so take a shower and get dressed with the clothes I hung on the back of the door. They will be here soon so GET READY!!

I was upset that she woke me up this early just to do something that could be done in less then an hour. Ok, upset? That was an understatement. A severe understatement. I stripped and turned the shower on; making sure it was hot before climbing in and slamming the glass shut behind me. I decided to go faster, before Alice decided to burst into the room and drag me out.

By the time I had rinsed the sop off my body and turned the water off, it had gone cold and judging by the clock hanging on the back of the door I had been in there for almost an hour as it was. I pulled on the clothes that Alice had supplied and groaned. The outfit was brand new and still had the tags attached. Alice must have bought it on her shopping trip yesterday. I knew that she had bought things for the team and their coach, enough for three times the number coming, all in different sizes so that they were all covered for every occasion. I walked into my room and jumped. My pixie-like sister was sitting on my bed grinning broadly.

"They need you to drive the Volvo to the airport." I rolled my eyes and she squealed, taking my hand and pulling me to the garage. "Go! Emmet and Nick have already left." Nodding, I climbed in and pulled away from her, speeding towards the local airport.

By the time I had reached the meeting spot, Nick and Emmet were just on their way to meet them, and left me watching the cars. When I next saw them, Emmet was pushing most of their luggage and was supporting a girl that was holding a tissue to her nose and had her head tilted back.

I chuckled quietly, wondering what had happened to her but stopped when she let her head fall forward so she could check the blood flow. She was beautiful, average size, but with really pale skin. But it was her eyes that really got me. There was an unidentifiable pain in them that hit me hard. I was determined to get her into my car and when I saw that Nick was already occupied I moved towards Emmet and wrapped one arm around her waist, pulling her towards my Volvo instead of the limo. Two girls followed her and climbed into the back seat while I helped her into the front. I think the blood was affecting her more than she hoped because it looked like her eyes were going in and out of focus. All I could hope was that I could get her back to the house before she passed out.

Guess who that was? I'm sorry if this is rubbish but I was watching Saving Private Ryan and was crying for quite a bit of it so forgive me. But if you have ever seen that film while you are ill and extremely hormonal you will understand what I mean. So sad.

Anyway, you may remember that I was doing my English coursework a while back, and I gave it in, and have decided to finish it on here, as it was only a short story and I didn't get to where I wanted to finish. I'll put up the first chapter some time this weekend, which will be what I gave in, and then will continue it from there. I just need some help with the names. At the moment it is a Sam and Emily story (I swear that was an accident! Emily was sitting next to me and she chose the name Sam) but I might change it. My friends said it was really depressing so I'm sorry if you agree.

I won't beg you to review though it would be nice.
