"So Cullen," I turned and looked at Bella as she said my name. "You know some about me. Now its my turn to know some about you."
I smiled. "Okay, Swan. Where should I start?"

I smiled at him. I don't remember smiling this much since mom died. It felt right. "The people you sit at lunch with, who are they?
"They are my brother and sisters."
I was bewildered. "But they seem like they are going out." Edward smiled when I said this. His smile always seems to take my breath away.
"All of us are adopted. Carlisle and Esme wanted children, but they couldn't have any so they adopted us." Edward looked at the teacher who was watching everyone. "Carlisle was there for me when my real mom died."
"How long ago was it that she died?"
Edward looked into my eyes. I felt like he was reaching into my soul. "Too long . . . I really don't remember it."
I looked down at my combat boots. I felt sorry for him. "I, I'm sorry to hear that," I said while looking back up at him.
"Don't worry." Edward did a little smile that made my heart skip a beat. "Enough about sad stuff. What is the best thing that has happened to you Bella?"
I thought about it for a moment. Of course I knew what the best thing that has ever happened to me was. I just … think it's embarrassing to say. I took a deep breath. "I met you." I looked at him. He seemed surprised or shocked. Maybe both. I blushed. He looked away.
"Bella…"
I knew I should not have said that. " I-"
"I'm glad I met you Bella." He turned back to face me. "Whom do you live with?"
He changed the subject to a worse one. "Charlie, My dad." I didn't like talking about him. He was one of the worse types of person. Everyone believes what he says, all because he is a cop. People think he doesn't do anything wrong because of that reason. I . . . I wish my mom were still alive. If she were here, none of this would have happened. There was only one thing though. I know if this had not happened I would have not met Edward.
"Bella?"
I snapped out of this nightmare. "What?"
"Are you okay?"
"I'm fine. Why wouldn't I be okay?"
Edward started at me for a little before answering. "What were you thinking of?"
I turned away from his hypnotizing eyes. "Don't worry about that. It was nothing."
I knew Edward didn't like that I wasn't telling him. He kept on telling me to tell him for like ten minutes. He was very stubborn. He finally let it go though . . . not completely. I think.
Edward asked me questions like what are my favorite colors, movies, books, and stuff like that. I found out a lot about him too. His favorite color was blue, He liked horror movies, and his favorite book was Everlost. "What is your favorite creature?" I asked him.
"What type of creature? Like werewolves or fairies or mermaids? Or like the lake monster and stuff like that?" Edward asked me.
"I guess which ever."
"I guess I would have to say Vampires."
I gasped at that. I loved vampires. They were the best, with their fangs! "I love vampires!"
Edward smiled. "Really?"
"Yeah. Vampires can totally kick werewolf butt!"
"I know what you mean. I hate werewolves. They're mutts." (Sorry Jacob and Werewolf fans. Even though I like them too, but I like vampires more. Sorry.)
I smiled at Edward. He really was just like me! We both loved and hated almost the same things. "I can't wait for that new movie to come out. The one about how a vampire and a human fall in love." I looked at Edward and he was staring at me. He opened his mouth to say something but the bell rang.
"I'll see you tomorrow Bella." He told me as he got up and left.
For a second I thought nothing could ruin my day now, but that was just until remembered whom I was returning home to. How am I going to face my dad? He was away yesterday on a project at the police station. I was sure he was coming home today. I sighed. I have to hurry home and make dinner. I can't make him mad. I ran to my car. Thankfully not tripping.
I reached home within fifteen minutes. I quickly changed and started to make the food. I decided to make his favorite, fish with rice and beans. I never really liked it but he did and that's all that mattered. I grabbed the fish out of the freezer putting it into the microwave trying to defrost it quicker.
I finished dinner as soon as Charlie had walked through the door.
"Hello Bells." He said as he sat at the table waiting for his dinner.
When he calls me Bells that's a good sign, if he calls me by my full name that's when I should be scared. I carefully brought his dinner to him and brought my own. I thanked god that I did not trip like the last time.
"I'm having company over tomorrow. I want it to be a good dinner so make something fancy."
"Who is coming over?"
"The Black family and the Cullen's family."
I nearly fell out of my chair. Did he say Cullen? Edward was coming here! "Why are they coming?"
"I have business to discuss with them."
"Here have my food. I'm not hungry anymore." I got up, went to my room, and sat on my bed shocked. Edward was coming here. What if my dad got mad at me and he finds out what I was hiding? This doesn't sound good. What should I do? I know I am going to mess up! Edward will find out my secret and hate me. What should I do, I repeated to myself. I groaned waiting for an answer.
