I'm so sorry for taking so long but my internet was acting crappy. Um just to put this out there, Bella's small little town is Forks. I'll make that known in the actual story. Thanks you guys for reviewing!

Read on…

I smiled. Did I look like that? Was I in love? No I couldn't be. I just met Edward. But I still got butterflies in my stomach whenever I thought of him.

I smiled down at her, "I'm not sure. But I intend to find out tonight.

EDWARD

I waited at the place that is slowly turning into our own private abode. I silently seethed at the comments I got from Emmett. I hoped Rosalie did him in good.

*Flashback*

I walked in the back yard where everyone was practicing his or her skills. I took a deep breath and started, "Listen Up every-"

Alice glared at me, "Just say it."

I sighed, "I'm going to be bringing someone over soon so act right."

Carlisle stood up, "Who is it?"

I looked towards Alice to see if she already told the others. She shook her head.

"A girl." I answered simply.

Emmett laughed" You never warned us about a girl you were bringing before, what's different?"

I didn't answer.

"Well?" Jasper asked.

I sighed again, "I actually like this one."

Esme stood up and walked over to me, placing a hand on my shoulder. "Is she like us?"

I shook my head. She tossed Carlisle a worried glance then focused back on me. "She does know who you are right? You're not kidnapping her or anything, right?"

I nodded, "She knew who I was as soon as she saw me."

"So…" Esme took a deep breath, "who is she?"

"No one of importance. Look when I bring her here I want all of you to act normal, got it."

Emmett laughed, "Sure." Alice suddenly looked at Emmett worriedly. I furrowed my eyebrows. What did she see?

"So Edward," calling my attention back to him, "have you 'tapped' it yet?"

I growled.

"I'll take that as a no." his smile darkened, "You mind if I do?"

I took out my swords and ran after Emmett who had taken off in a sprint.

Emmett was slowed down by all of his muscles but even though I was still the fastest in the family.

I quickly tackled him to the ground and placed my swords in an 'X' above his throat.

"You will not lay one finger on her. Do you understand? I growled.

He laughed, "Sure man. Don't throw a hissy fit."

I panted outraged. I felt a hand on my shoulder. I looked up.

It was Rosalie. "Move." I thought I was mad. I looked back down at Emmett who looked scared for the first time in his life.

I quickly stood up and trudged toward the house but Esme caught my arm.

"If this is for real Edward, then we will be on our best behavior."

*End of Flashback*

I finally heard the crunch of boots outside the building. I felt a smile appear on my lips. Was I that happy to see her? I stood up to see a figure come through the door. My smile suddenly dropped into a menacing frown.

"Jasper, what are you doing here?"

He chuckled, "I practically could feel your anger and anxiety from outside. You need to calm down, bro." he sat on the seat Bella usually sat in. For some reason, that irritated me; that was Bella's seat.

He looked confused at me then down at the seat. He shook his head then stood up. He walked over to me and slapped a strong hand on my shoulder, "Look bro, calm down. Alice said if you don't you most likely scare her off."

I shrugged him off, "Look I have everything under control. Leave, before she gets here."

He put his hands up in surrender. "Ok, I'll leave just don't forget what I had to say, ok?"

"Yeah, now leave." I said in a rushed manner.

He shook his head as he turned to leave.

He abruptly stopped. I leaned to the side to see Bella looking up frightened.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean-" Bella stammered.

I cut her off, "Relax, it's just my… brother."

She nodded and looked down terrified. I grabbed her arm and pulled her to me. She in turn stepped behind me. I smiled and gave Jasper a dismissive look. He nodded and walked out the door.

I turned to Bella who took a deep breath and practically collapsed in her seat.

I sat opposite her.

She looked behind her to see if Jasper had left.

I reached out to turn her back towards me. I couldn't wait any longer.

"So did you break it off?"

She nodded, "I did before school started."

I smiled, "Good. And did you tell your father?"

She looked confused, "Why would I?"

Why would she? Wasn't her father protective of her like a normal father would be?

"Didn't you tell your father about Mike?" I asked confused.

"No." she answered simply.

"Doesn't you father need to know about these things?"

"Not necessarily, he became … detached once he was force to retire." She explained.

I nodded my head in understanding. "I'm sorry about that."

She shrugged, "It was about time he did anyway. He just wanted to leave on his own accord, that's all."

I sighed, did I want her to tell her father about me or not? I am sure he wouldn't be too keen on his only daughter dating someone so much older than her. Did I want to put her through that grief? No, I shouldn't do that. But I didn't like the idea of sneaking around. It was immature and almost always ending up badly. She was just going to have to tell.

"Tell your father about us tonight." I told her in a commanding voice.

She cocked her head to the side, "Why, what good would that do?"

I wanted to tell her my reasons but I didn't want her to start thinking about the huge age difference already. That would come later.

She looked down in contemplation, "I can't."

I frowned, "Why not?"

She shook her head, "You don't know Charlie, he wouldn't agree with him."

Charlie? Why was his name familiar? "I couldn't care less about what he likes or not, I just want him to know why his daughter is going to be out late from now on, especially because of the curfew."

She sighed giving in, "How much do you want me to tell him?"

"That you have a boyfriend and to not be worried if you come home late, not to worry."

"Should I tell him your name?"

I thought for a second, "Only if he asks."

She thought for a second then looked up, "So did you tell your family?

"Yes, and I am bringing you over there soon, so you can meet them."

Her chest rose with the quick intake of breath, "What?"

"They'll be on their best behavior.

She took a deep breath, "So when exactly?"

I thought for a moment, "Probably this weekend if nothing else comes up. Is that ok with you?"

She simply nodded.

We were silent for a while, I took in her appearance. She'd done something different. She looked nice. I liked her hair this way. Instead of having her hair in a messy pony-tail like the first time I met her, her hair was down in soft curls. It came down to her mid back. The way her hair curled around her chest was enticing.

I tried to distract myself, "So, tell me about yourself?"

She began telling me about her life and I instantly felt bad for her. She was always given the short end of the stick. Well from now on she would live life to the fullest.
