Edward's POV

Today was a special day. Senna, my family, and Bella were going out to dinner. Its only been a couple weeks since Bella started training but dad thinks she's ready. And he wants to get her comfortable around the family.

Senna was in the bathroom with Bella, doing her hair and whatnot. I could hear her whining and squirming in the chair. I was sitting on the bed waiting for them eagerly, staring down at my watch every so often.

Finally they came out. Senna was in a long black skirt, with a silky button up shirt. Her black hair was pulled back in a ponytail.

Bella was walking behind her in a pretty light pink dress that came down her knees. It had white poka dots all over it. She had flip flops on with a big flower on it. Her hair was in a french-braid with a pink flower clip in it. She looked like a little girl.

I sighed and handed her my hand, she smiled and took it gripping it tightly in her grasp.

We walked to the car, I held the door open for both the girls.

"Sage Gardens" I said to the driver. It took only ten minutes to get to the place. My family was already there waiting for us.

Carlisle, Emmett, and Jasper stood up offering their hands to us. Alice and Maria sat on Jasper's sides, Rosalie sat beside Emmett and mother sat beside father smiling at us.

In a little highchair beside Rosalie was Emily, Rosalie's and Emmett's toddler. She was a very cute halfling. Long blond curl hair, and blue-ish grey eyes. She smiled at me when we arrived.

I shook hands with all the men and waved to the girls. Bella coward into my side. I looked at her. Her eyes were wide with fear, I knew this would be a lot for her to take in but it was time for her to get acquainted with the family. I pulled out a chair for her and Senna. Then one for myself. Everyone waved at Bella, trying to get her attention. She whined quietly shaking my arm.

"What wrong Bella?"

(Again speaking sign-language grammar!)

"I don't like, I want to-go home."

She said I patted her leg under the table.

"Just relax Bella. I promise it-be fine. What do-you want eat?"

I asked her looking at the menu. She couldn't read yet so I sorta helped her out.

She tapped her chin cutely, I knew she was hungry. Her stomach had been growling the whole way here.

"Can I have red noodle stuff?"

She asked. I knew what she meant. Spaghetti, she loved the stuff. I nodded at her, and turned to my family.

"So how has everyone been? Seems like I haven't seen you guys in a while." I said to everyone, Emmett took a swig of his drink.

"You know we're all fine. We wanna know about you guys and how's it going." He said, his booming voice frightening Bella a little. She whimpered into my side a little covering her ears. Senna tapped her hand, silently telling her to pull it away. She frowned but pulled it away.

Senna answered before I could, "Well Bella is doing fantastic in her learning. She knows almost all the signs, proper public manners, and basically everything she should have learned as a baby. She's really eager to learn." Senna beamed at her proudly like a mother at a baby. Bella was still looking at the table away from my family.

"How do you say 'how are you' in sign-language." My father asked Senna. She signed the words to him,

He smiled and looked at Bella then pointed at her and signed what Senna just taught him. She sighed very loudly and signed back at him. Senna laughed, "She says she's fine. Just very hungry." He nodded at her. They continued this little conversation. She was starting at warm up to everyone one a bit.

Bella took a quick look around the room and froze staring at a table far off into the corner.
