I don't own Twilight. (but lets just pretend, kay?)
Edward's party wasn't like a traditional party. It was more like a family reunion with out the "Oh my goodness! You've grown!" or any other embarrassing remarks that over bearing family members would give. We all just sat in the living room and talked for an hour or so to catch up on their lives. Edward didn't need to read my mind to tell that I was bored.
"You can invite Hannah over if you'd like." He said to me in a low voice.
I glanced over to Esme who was still smiling from Emmett's story of how he managed to pull a prank on someone. "Are you sure it will be alright?" I asked not wanting to ruin Esme's fun by inviting some one over.
"I don't think she will mind." Edward smiled.
I hugged him then ran upstairs to call Hannah.
"Hello?" She asked.
"Hey. Can you come over?" I asked.
"Yeah. I'll be over in a few minutes." She said quickly then hung up.
Hannah was at the door two minutes later. She was really happy about something, I'm guessing the party but before I had time to ask her she pulled me upstairs.
"Bella! There's going to be a party tomorrow night!" She squealed.
"Yeah, I know. I got the e-mail too." I sat down on my bed.
"You are going weather you like it or not."
"I wasn't really planing on refusing, Alice and Rosalie are making me and the guys go."
"Ok. So what are you going to wear?" She asked facing my closet.
"Jeans, a t-shirt and shoes. "
"Its a pool party. You need a bathing suit too."
"One piece then."
"Why? You are hot Bella." She pulled out a lime green and white bikini and put it on my dresser. She dug into the closet and found a green t-shirt and a pair of light blue jeans that were ripped at the knees, which she also put on the dresser. "How do you have so many pieces of jewelry and all you wear is that locket and earrings?" She said as she ducked down to look at my jewelry box.
"Alice spoils me. My locket has sentimental value, Edward gave it to me for my seventh birth day." I said and touched the cold, smooth exterior.
"Uh-huh." Was her reply. She was too busy looking though the different compartments in the huge jewelry box that was in one of the shelves in my closet. "What about these?" She asked and held up a pair of black stair earrings.
"I don't know. You're going to choose any ways."
She put them down on my bed on my green shirt. "I really think you should wear a hat and some black pumps." She looked at me, picturing the outfit in her head, I didn't need Edward's gift to know that.
"I'm going to die if I wear any kind of high heel shoe and why a hat? I think my hare looks fine the way it is." I crossed my arms in frustration.
"You'd look cute in a hat, Bells. Trust me. Fine, no heels. Still your going to need a black shoe."
"I should have flats on the floor."
She grabbed them and the other clothes on my bed and made me change. After the outfit was Ok'd by Hannah she left to go home. I changed back in to my regular clothes and laid down on my bed. I closed my eyes and fell asleep a few minutes after my head hit the pellow.
There were three black figures with crimson red eyes that looked like they could kill you just by thinking about it, not needing to move to inflict pain on someone. I was scared out of my mind. I could feel my heart beating faster and faster every second that passed. I looked to my left, a move I shouldn't have made, there was a purple fire it was across the black room I could feel the heat on my skin and the sweet smell in the air. I shuddered. A crashing sound came from my right and I jumped, turning my head to what happened. Edward was crouched in a position to kill, lips pulled back over his snow white teeth. A roar that should have belonged to a Jaguar ripped through his teeth. His eyes were a shiny gold, burning with hate as he stared at the tall red eyed being in the middle.
"Don't you come near her!" He snarled.
Her? There was some one else here? I turned to see who was behind Edward. A fair haired, tan woman stood at least ten feet behind Edward, knees trembling from what she saw. She was beautiful but not as wonderful looking as Rosalie or Alice. I stood up and ran to her, trying not to fall as I usually would.
"You need to run!" I said trying not to bring any attention to us. The lady ignored me. "Hey! You need to leave! Its for your own good!" I yelled. Still, the lady didn't say anything. I put my hand out to touch her and gasped when it went through her shoulder. I was a ghost here. She couldn't see me or hear me.
A small girl with the same crimson eyes appeared out of no were and stood next to the far right one.
"Master?" The girl asked in a high voice that rang like bells.
"Yes, Jane, now." The male voice replied with a smile on his voice. The small child smiled towards the lady and myself. The lady collapsed to the ground, screaming in pain with her fingers intertwined in her long blond hair. Edward turned to us, his eyes held so much pain I could feel my eyes start to water. Faster then I had time to react, the middle red eyed male crouched and tackled Edward with a deafening boom.
I jolted up, back in my bed now, and screamed as tears ran down my face. Edward was sitting on my bed in less then a second.
"Whats wrong Bella?" He asked in a troubled voice. I shook my head. I couldn't form words to describe what happened. "Bella?" He asked again, wrapping his arms around me and rubbing my back, trying to calm me down. "Its okay Bella, I'm here." He whispered into my hair.

I woke up again three hours later to the smell of eggs and the sound of Emmett's thunder-like laughing. I walked down stairs dazed, I could feel sticky lines on my face where the tears were.
"What was with the screaming? Monster under your bed?" Emmett teased me. I ignored the remark and made my way over to the kitchen table. I silently sat down and ate with out saying a word. I didn't notice that Edward, Alice and Esme were sitting near me until I was done.
"Is every thing alright Bella?" Esme asked, putting her ice cold hand on my shoulder. I nodded, not meeting anyone's gaze."Okay then. Just tell us if you want to talk or something." I nodded again and went up stairs.

I didn't mean to be anit-social to my family. The dream was too real, like it was really happening. I didn't exactly cheer up when Hannah called and asked me about the party, again, but it did help me to start talking again. It also didn't hurt when Edward started playing my favorite music to try and lure me out of the room. I eventually came out when he started playing 'You Are The Moon' by The Hush Sound.
"Hey." I said, sitting on the black couch inside.
"Hey." He retorted and sat next to me. I leaned on him and put my legs up on the couch. "Are you okay now?" He put his arm around me.
"I'm alright. You?"
"I'm better now that you've come out of you're room. What was the dream about?"
I said nothing for about a half a minute. "It wasn't a dream, more like a nightmare."
"Oh." He commented. "Well, what happened?"
I hesitated again. Edward was easy to talk to and I told him almost everything. I wasn't sure how he was going to react to this though. "There were about 5 figures with red eyes, like the non-vegetarian vampires you told me about. They were all dressed in black. They looked like they could kill someone with out really moving. You were there and so was a girl. She looked like one of the girls you would find acting on one of the shows on MTV." I hugged his arm closer to my body. "I was creped out and fearing for my life." and yours I added in my head. "I was kinda pissed though. You were protecting the blond girl and mad as hell, growling and hissing like a Jaguar. I ran over the the girl and told her to run so you wouldn't get hurt but I was a ghost and she couldn't hear me." I sighed an began again a second or two later. "A small girl came out and did something to the blond, i didn't see what. You turned your back on them then some one went in to kill you." I felt tears coming to my eyes and whispered "Sorry."
"Don't fret, Bella. It was just a dream." He kissed the top of my head.
