After lying on my bed for a while I stood up and walked over to my CD collection. If you looked at Edwards music it was more blues, piano and oldies music. Emmett's music consists of AC/DC and Def Leppard and other hard core older rock bands. Rosalie likes 80's music like Kenny Loggins, Cindy Lauper and she likes Madonna from both the 80's and now. Jasper CD's and records are mostly country and guitar music since he spent a lot of his life in the south. My collections of CD's and records are more modern but I do have old music. I love Queen and Aretha Franklin, but I also like newer bands like Linkin Park, Radiohead and Jason Mraz, basically music teens my age listen to. We all own iPod touches but we like putting CD's in players and not having things sticking in our ears when we're laying down. I ran my fingertips along the long row of CD cases and stopped at my favorite CD to listen to at night when there was nothing to do. It was James Brown whom Edward and I shared a love for.

I popped the CD into my player and sat down on the couch in my room. I had picked out the couch with Rosalie and Esme at some small store in Seattle sometime in the 1930's. It was soft and comfortable. The sort of couch you just sort of sink into. It felt warm and comforting against my cold, marble skin. I looked at the clock and it was about 3:00am. I sat there for about 3 more hours, listening to the James Brown CD on repeat. At 6:00 I hopped up and skipped to Rosalie and Emmett's room. I knocked lightly on the door and heard Emmett amble towards and door and the door open.

"Hey Em. Is Rose in there?" I asked standing on my tip toes peeking around him.

"Yeah she's shopping online on the new Mac." He said opening the door wider to let me in. I pranced towards Rosalie who was sitting in front of the computer.

"What are you buying?" I asked

"A gift for Carlisle's three-hundred and sixty-second birthday. But I am having troubles. I don't know what he want's." she said scrolling down the page and sighing.

"OH!" I gasped. "I forgot! I have to go!" I said running to my room and opening up my laptop. But closed it after a half a second.

"Love?" Jasper said sitting on the bed. I jumped because I didn't know he was sitting there. He chuckled. "You forgot Carlisle's birthday?" He asked smiling.

"SHHHH!" I said sternly. "I don't want him hearing! Yes I forgot But I think I know exactly what I am getting him."

"What is that?"

"I have an old doctors bag from the early 1800's that I found while we were living in the Appalachia's. It's a little worn out but I am thinking if I order him new doctors instruments and send the bag to a repair shop that it would make a perfect present. I've noticed his bag and instruments are getting a bit shabby." I said smiling, thrilled at my fabulous idea.

"That's a great idea, love."

I ran into my closet and grabbed the bag. Then I ran to my laptop and flipped it open. I ordered him new instruments. I was finished and it was 7:30. We had to leave in an hour. I sauntered into my bathroom and started the shower. I took a quick shower and dried my short hair. I curled it outwards so it spiked out a bit. I put mascara and eye liner on and then walked to my closet. I picked out a white blouse, a black vest and some gray jeans. I put on my regular jewelry, slipped on some black flats and grabbed by black school bag. I pranced to Edwards room but he wasn't there.

"He left early to watch that Bella girl sleep." Emmett said standing at the doorway.

"What time?" I asked flopping down on his couch

"Hmmm…around the time you went up to your room and started blasting James Brown." He said laughing

I stuck my tongue out at him "Are we taking the wrangler or the BMW? Since Carlisle won't let me buy my own car." I mumbled.

"Yeah, wasn't there something about irresponsible driving in Rochester?" Emmett said grinning.

"Shut up." I hissed. "Are we taking the Wrangler or the BMW?"

"We'll I think we're taking the BMW."

"Okay." I said squeezing around him and hopping down the stairs.

"You ready?" Rose said picking up her white purse.

"Yup."

"Edwards giving her a ride to school." Rosalie snarled

"Yeah, I know. Rosalie why don't you just give her a chance. I mean Edward has found someone he loves for the first time in over a century." I said sympathetically

"Yeah. We'll he's putting us all in danger by even talking to her." She snapped.

I cringed.

"Sorry. It's just a little hard for someone on the outside to know. I wish I could be like her, or any other human out there." She said looking out the front window. "We have to go." She started walking out the door

We reached the garage and Jasper and Emmet were sitting in the back seats. I hopped in the passenger seat and Rosalie started the engine. We drove to school at normal speed for us (which was about 90-95 mph). As we parked we all turned our heads and saw Edward getting out of his Volvo on the other side of the parking lot. He glanced our way for a quick second and then he walked around the other side and opened the door and Bella stepped out. He took her bag and put his arm around her as they walked towards the school. We all stared at them as they walked by us and up the stairs. Bella glimpsed at us for a split second, but then realized Rosalie's piercing glare.

Rosalie growled.

"Babe…" Emmet said tapping his fingers along the car door.

We got out of the car and walked towards the school. I slipped my arm through Jaspers. He walked me to my first period and kissed me lightly on the cheek. I sat down in my regular seat in the back and got ready for another terribly long day.
