Disclaimer: It's not mine

"My family wants to have you over for dinner."

I looked up at Amelia surprised. I decided, too, not to point out that she had quickly purposely added 'over' to her sentence. Still, this was odd for vampires. "I wouldn't want Mrs. Cullen to go to any trouble to cook anything for me."

"Oh it's no trouble. Esme loves to cook. You'll give her excuse to use the kitchen."

Taylor watched us with interest. He hardly ever talked anymore and maybe it's because he was so shy around Amelia. He'd try to talk and then he'd simply stare at her. It was quite funny, I thought.

"Well if you're sure."

"Of course. Is Friday okay?"

"Sure that'll be fine."

To be perfectly honest, I was nervous. Not for the reason you may think (though I was sort of walking into the lion's den). I was more nervous over the fact that this was 'meet the parents' time. Before Amelia, I'd never had an actual girlfriend so I was at completely at lost for what to do or what to say.

Oh God what was I going to do?

If Amelia noticed I was nervous on our way to her house after she picked me up that evening, she didn't say. I was visibly tense, I could tell, and I kept clenching my fist.

My heart was pounding horribly hard in my chest when we pulled up to what could only be described as a mansion. Stairs led up to the extravegent porch and there were so many windows on the front I didn't even want to imagine how many were on the back.

Amelia pulled the car up next to Edward's, Emmett's and Rosalie's and what I could only assume was Carlisle and Esme. She stopped the car and turned to me, smiling softly. "You don't have be nervous. Everyone is very well behaved and –"

"You think they'll like me?"

"Of course they'll – Wait, is that what you're worried about love?"

"Well of course." I turned in my seat to look at her. "What else would I be worried about?"

Amelia stared at me. "You mean to tell me, you're more worried about meeting everyone than you are about being in a house full of vampires?"

"Well – yeah."

She burst into a fit of laughter then, smiling widly at me. "You surely are something special Daniel. Come on."

Still laughing, she got out the car and I followed. At the front she took my hand and we climbed up the stairs together, the door opening before we even reached the top, Alice standing happily in the doorway. "It's about time! I thought you'd never get here."

Alice grabbed my free hand as soon as I was in reach and pulled me inside, Amelia following, a smile on her face. Alice was talking at a mile a minute and pulling me through the foyer and living room so fast I didn't even get to check it out. "We are all so glad to have you here, Daniel. Esme and Carlisle are so excited too. I hope you're not allergic to anything. It won't matter anyway; Esme's cooked so much I'm sure you'll find something you can eat."

Sure enough, the house smelled delicious. We entered the kitchen where a beautiful woman was bent at the oven. If I had seen her anywhere else, I wouldn't have thought she were a housewife or a mother to about seven kids; she looked like she could have been in movies.

Leaning at the counter was a blond man I assumed to be Dr. Cullen, who looked like he could have been some type of model too. So I guess vampires just got lucky being innately gorgeous or something.

"Ah well look who it is," Dr. Cullen said with a smile. The woman stood up, sitting a large baked chicken on top of the stove.

"Carlisle, Esme," Amelia said, stepping up and taking my hand again. "This is Daniel."

Carlisle stepped up to shake my hand. "Nice to finally meet you. We thought, Amelia would have you here sooner than this."

"Welcome to our home Daniel," Esme said, smiling.

"It's nice to meet you both, Dr. and Mrs. Cullen," I said, still slightly nervous but trying not to look it.

"Please call us Carlisle and Esme," she said. "The others will be down soon to greet you."

As if they could hear us, Edward, Bella, Jasper, and Emmett appeared in the doorway. Small talk was exchanged between the five of us though Bella moved away when Emmett brought up football. I was almost beginning to feel welcome when Rosalie entered .

The room feel silent as she looked at me, glared actually, crossing to the other side of the kitchen. "If vampires come chasing after this one," she said, icily, "I'm not helping this time."

"Oh Rosalie," a voice said, exasperated. A young girl had appeared in the kitchen. She might have been about the same age as the rest of us but she looked familiar. I was sure I hadn't ever seen her before though. Looking closer, I was shocked when I realized she looked like Bella and Edward but – how was that even possible….

"Daniel, this is Renesme," Bella said, taking the girl's hand. "Mine and Edward's daughter."

Daughter?! I tried to ignore my shock though, long enough to strangle out. "Nice to meet you."

"Looks like you might have some explaining to do, Amelia," Edward said, quietly.

"He's a cute one," Renesme said, smiling at me. "Too bad I'm taken. Oh speaking of, Esme, Jacob is coming up tonight."

"Good thing I cooked plenty of food," Esme said smiling.

"Rosalie, stop being rude to the company," Renesme said, scolding the other girl. "You think you can tear yourself away to help me with my hair?"

Rosalie rolled her eyes but she nodded, taking the girl's free hand as they left the room. She must have had a soft spot for her.

"Don't mind Rosalie too much," Emmett said, grinning. "She doesn't much like anyone, even me sometimes."

"Why don't you show Daniel around, Amelia?" Carlisle said. "We'll get the table set."

I took Amelia's hand and she took me out of the room. Though I knew the vampires could still here us I said, "So…."

"This is the living room and the family room is that a way. . . . Bella had Renesme just before Edward turned her."

"So Renesme is half-vampire and half-human?" I asked as we headed up the stairs.

"This is Edward and Bella's room, Rosalie and Emmett's (best not head in there now). . . . Yep, she's pretty special too. One of a few."

"Does she have any special powers, like Edward? Does Bella?"

"Bella is what some called a shield. She can block herself and others from other vampire powers. Renesme can, how do I put this, put other visions into other people's heads. It's pretty cool actually."

"Who's Jacob?"

"Her werewolf boyfriend. He Imprinted on her right after she was born. This is my room."

We went inside and Amelia immediately sunk down onto the futon, pulling me down next to her. "I'm really glad you came," she said softly.

"Same here," I replied. "Can I ask a question?"

"You already have."

I couldn't help but smile. "Why did you, you know, try to run away from me when we just end up together."

"I was worried," Amelia said. "Worried I might hurt you, worried I might scare you off. I don't know why though. Suppose I was trying to prove Alice wrong."

"Why?"

"Alice can see the future. She saw you. But I was so sure that that was impossible but, there you were."

"And you were worried," I said, with a grin, my mind reeling.

I wondered how far into the future Alice saw. . . .

Did she see me as a vampire? Maybe?

Amelia tapped me on my nose. "I knew I shouldn't have told you. Don't dwell on the future when you have the present to handle."

"Of course," I nodded, seriously. Amelia giggled and gently hit me on the arm.

The door opened and Alice poked in, smiling. "Dinner's ready."

Amelia took my hand and we stood up, walking out the door.

The future looked good.
