(REVIEW OF THE CHAPPIE TIME! YAY! I liked this one because she pointed out a mistake of mine. Its from lavampiresusan.

hahaha yes! eclipse! its amazing! i finshed it in like 3 days! and btw...its felix. not phoenix. sorry i get OCD but i LOVEE this story :)

(Its okay, OCD is good! LOL. Mmmmkay. HERE WE GO! ITS BEEN FOREVER BUT OH WELL!)

"As I was saying," I began again, wondering if he could hear me. "If I had time to contemplate I'd over think it."

"And so?" He breathed in my ear.

"I cant have time to think about it. I don't want time to think about it,"

"Okay," Marlowe said, hugging me even closer. "Bella…will you marry me?"

His voice- so casual, yet so sincere. I closed my eyes tightly.

"I need an answer now."

"Marlowe, I'm really, really hungry," I whined, putting my hand over my stomach. He smiled and locked the door behind us.

"Right, right. I'd forgotten about that."

"Well, I guess it'd be easy for you to forget," I snorted. "Since Jane's been my baby sitter for the past two weeks." We advanced down the narrow, ivory hallway. Marlowe grabbed my hand and squeezed.

Living with these people wasn't so bad. I mean, even though they're all vicious, man eating vampires, they're alright.

They knew Marlowe would snap their necks if they touched me.

I'd spent a lot of time with Jane. She was a very simple, very sweet girl. Though her anger could take control of her at times and change her into a monster, she could be very mellow and gentle. It was only when she wanted something when she unveiled (what I like to call) her alter ego.

She turns the exact opposite.

Jane was almost the only girl here, beside Heidi, who seemed to hate my guts.

"Disgusting," she'd said to my face, when I'd shown off my new ENGAGEMENT RING. "Marlowe has always played with his food."

Bryant, Jane's adoptive brother, was very happy for me. The twelve year old vamp listened to me gush like any good confidant would.

The boy was so sweet; and he was anything but shy. Each day he challenged me to a game of some sort- Chess, Mancala, Hide and Go Seek- but whatever it was, I was in.

And I lost every time.

He'd laugh and laugh and laugh whenever he beat me. He'd raise and eyebrow, do something clever, and he'd won.

I'd laugh along, but determination blazed within me, and I wouldn't lose again.

I hoped.

Jane and Bryant were like my siblings. We laughed and played all day, while Marlowe was away.

Marlowe stopped and hugged me tight.

"I never forget," He said, kissing my forehead.

He let go of me and I turned around.

Jane's room.

My face fell.

"When do we get to eat together?" I asked, grabbing his sleeve tightly. I wasn't going anywhere.

"That could get dangerous," he chuckled. I scowled at him. "I'll be back before you know it. I have some things to take care of for the WEDDING."

(AN: That's there JUST IN CASE it didn't sink in yet :D)

He politely kissed my hand.

And he was gone.

After knocking repeatedly at Jane's door and having no one answer, I decided I could explore a little. I shuffled through the palace- like home. I ran into Felix (NOT PHOENIX! Lol) who smiled as I passed but said nothing. I also saw Heidi, who was sporting a tight little black cocktail dress. She looked stunning in her midnight stiletto heals. Her scarlet eyes were scorching.

Well, I guess the devil wears Prada.

Heidi looked up and narrowed her eyes.

"Scoot," her eyes seemed to say. "Before I rip you to sheds."

I moved quickly out of the room.

I finally came to a dead end. There were two large oak doors at the end of the hall. I slowly pushed one open and poked my head in. Just a normal dining room.

"But why would you marry her?" asked a male voice. It was coming from the corner of the room. I jumped out of the door way and put my back up against the wall. I couldn't be seen sneaking around! But, thanks to curiosity, I stayed and listened.

"You don't understand, Aro," This was Marlowe, I was sure of it.

"Well, then would you mind explaining it to me, then?" Aro asked, a hint of annoyance in his voice. "I mean, Heidi was perfectly ready to be you mate."

So that's why Heidi hates me.

"Its…its not like that,"

"Not like what?" Aro seemed to be getting more and more frustrated with Marlowe.

"Its not like you think it is- between me and Bella."

(A/N: DUM DUM DUMMMMMM! YAY I ACTUALLY FINISHED IT! WOOT WOOT! Okay, next chapter, coming up!!!!!!)
