James

(BPOV)

"No cheating." I warned Carlisle as he walked to first base. Me, Edward and Alice were against Carlisle, Jasper, and Emmett in this game. We all cheat, no denying it at all.

"I won't dearest." He winked at me easily.

"Liar." I called out to him. "If you cheat, you aren't going to like me very much." I warned. He shrugged. I lifted the metal back slowly and looked at Jasper. He threw the first ball and I let it go by. I looked over at Carlisle and winked at him. I hit the next one right over his head, just out of his reach. I ran around the bases and made it home just a second before Carlisle caught the ball that was thrown by Rose. "Love you, darling." I winked and walked over to Angela who was watching the game unfold. I always stood next to her as long as I wasn't occupied.

Alice was just about to bat when she gasped. Her colors darkened and she glanced towards the woods. I might not have had foresight, but even I could see the three dark souls moving our way. "They're coming here." Alice whispered.

"Take her out of here, Bella." Edward said in a scared voice. "Take her somewhere safe, away from them." I reached out for Angela.

"Don't! Her body can't move as yours can, you'll kill her if you try to teleport her. She isn't a vampire." Alice warned. I looked between Edward and Angela.

"Sorry, Edward." I nodded before taking Carlisle's hand at the frount of our family. The others filed in a semi-circle behind us as Edward kept Angela mostly out of sight. The three vampires entered the clearing and asked if they could play baseball, but then the most shifty of the three saw Angela's face.

"You!" He growled. "No one gets away from me." He croutched preparing to spring. I disapeared and reapeared behind him, tackling him to the ground and pinning him.

"Not my daughter!" I hissed at him angrilly.

"BELLA!" Alice shouted. I disapeared and pushed the wild woman away and the other away before reapearing before the man in the middle.

"I suggest you leave." Carlisle said quietly to the three. "Hurting our family is not tollerated. And making my wife angry will not make you any closer to me or my children." His voice was hard, firm. The three of them stood up and ran. Edward looked at me.

"They are leaving, the were afraid of you, Bella… They wouldn't attack when they don't know what they have to fight with." Edward explained.

"Cowards." I hissed. Carlisle put his hands on my cheeks gently.

"Your eyes are black…relax, my love. No one will hurt your family." Carlisle rubbed my back soothingly and I relaxed into his touch.

"You didn't have to do that for me…" Angela whispered.

"You are worth it, Ang…" Jasper smiled at her.

"I didn't know mommy dearest had it in her. She was going to kill that mo'fo." Emmett laughed. I had questions for Angela, but I didn't want to ask her them just yet…she would tell me on her own time.

(2 years later)

Angela was set to become a vampire in a few months. She was going to join us a month after graduation, I was perfectly happy with that. She completed our family. I was in the house alone when I heard her car pull up. I opened the door and let her in with a smile.

"Hello, Ang."

"Hi, Bella… Whoa…where did everyone go?" She wondered.

"Hunting trip… I was the only one who stayed behind." I shrugged.

"I guess that's good." She sighed.

"Why?"

"Because I wanted to talk to you about something…" Angela stated. "You have been like the best mother/sister/friend I have ever had in my life—don't tell that to Alice—but I knew the first day we met, when you jumped between me and James that you were going to be one of the closest people I would ever have to me." She said. I hugged her gently.

"I love you too." I whispered. She chuckled.

"You notice things, moreso than the rest… You saw my scar the first day we met, yet you have always been polite and never asked… Can I tell you the story today?" Angela inquired.

"If you want to dear… I don't want you to feel compeled to say anything." I nodded, sitting down as she did.

"I lived in Canada for a while when I was young. As you know I have pretty crappy parents who didn't care to look after me for more than five seconds…so that is how I ended up lost in the woods when I was ten. I saw a man in the woods and I asked him to help me… It was James… He stalked forward and bit my neck, draining me slowly. Then Eleazar showed up and saved me before he could kill me… James fled and Eleazar patched me up, telling me everything… My parents didn't evenknow I was missing until I came back two weeks later…" She shook her head. "I wanted you to know… You should have known… I know you were curious." Angela smiled.

"I am sorry that that happened to you." I sighed.

"I'm over it." She shrugged. "You vampires aren't so bad." She winked.

"Well, some of us aren't all bad." I corrected. Edward and Carlisle walked through the front door. "Some are worse than others." I winked and Angela and I laughed loudly together when both Edward and Carlisle looked at eachother with confused looks on their faces.

"Women…" Carlisle shrugged.
