It's been a week since I've moved in with the Cullens. It was by far the best week of my life. I always got company (Alice, and/or the kids) and most of all, Esme treated me like her own daughter. She made sure I was fed and comfortable. No need to tell you my mother never bothered. But all this was new to me so I wasn't very comfortable with the affection and attention. I always had to take care of myself, even when I was sick.

Rosalie, as expected didn't warm up.

The real problem was Carlisle.

Don't get me wrong, he was kind and welcoming, but I could tell something about me bothered him. He always had this conflicted look. I still can't figure out why and I would feel nosy by asking.

So today's Sunday and Esme told me that we were having a family brunch. I will finally meet the missing brother or "Eddie boy" as Emmett put it. They never really talked about him but I could tell they missed him. A lot. I really hope he won't mind having a stranger into his family.

I was in the kitchen with Esme. She was wondering what she was going to cook.

"-Pasta with shrimp alfredo sauce? No, did some two weeks ago. Lasagna? Oh no, I made some Monday. Dear God, I'm out of ideas!

- Esme, I seriously don't think they'll notice the fact that you did pasta with shrimp alfredo sauce two weeks ago.

- Maybe, but I will.

- Hum. Ok. What about stuffed chicken parmesan with penne pasta and apple bites for dessert? No, not such a great idea it's…

- It's perfect, Bella! Perfect! What would I be without you?" Here comes the blush…

" - Come on Esme! You've organized dozens of brunches before me; you would have eventually found something.

- Maybe, but I think that your ideas are better than mine. Now, teach me how to make the stuffed chicken parmesan.

- Well, it's quite easy. First …"

It took us a total of 3 hours and a half to finish the meals (let's not forget Emmett eats for ten) but it was all worth it. We were going to finish the cooking when everybody will be here.

I decided to go to my room and shower. I got dressed, did my hair and got down to wait for everybody.

Alice, Jasper and the twins were the first to arrive.

"- Hello everybody! BB! " Hugh! Hated that nickname. Stands for "Bestie Bella".

"- Hi Alice, Jasper. How are you guys doing?

- Everything is fine, BB! You're finally gonna meet my brother! Did I tell you he's handsome? He also plays the piano! i And if you get past his… not-so-sweet side, he's really nice!

- What are you trying to say, Alice?

- I'm trying to prepare you for what is to come. I don't want you to run away from here once you see what a jerk he can be. He thinks every woman is destined to end up in his bed and none of those he encountered ever proved him wrong. You will be his first. I was just trying to sugar coat things but don't bother. Just remember you are my best friend and I would be extremely sad if you were to leave. Ok?

- Alright, don't worry. I managed to handle my ass… imbecile of a neighbor. Your brother shouldn't be too much for me.

- I really hope so."

A few moments later, Emmett, Rosalie and the kids came in.

"- Bella!" Ej ran into my arms and gave me a big kiss on the cheek.

" – Hey, handsome. How are you doing?

- I'm fine! But I'm very, very hungry.

- Yeah, what's for lunch Mom?" Emmett asked.

" – Well, you'll see. Now, why is your brother so late?

- He said he woke up late and that he's in on his way. We all know why he woke late. Must have picked up a girl at some bar." Esme sighed.

" –I just wish he would find a girl that would make him happy.

- He will, Mom. He will."Alice said.

I'm really, really tired of my family's constant comments about my lack of love life ( or my overloaded sex one) so I'll bring Tanya to our brunch today. That'll shut their mouth.

Actually, Tanya is a pretty nice girl. She is a great lay, actually has a brain (unlike most of the girl I've fucked) and well, she's the only girl I've been with lately. Mom will be thrilled.

" - Come on, Tanya we're gonna be late!

- Calm down already! I just want to look good for my first meeting with your parents. So, how do I look?" She was wearing a tight white bustier dress that fitted her like a glove. But…

"-You look great but don't you think it's a little too much? It's just a brunch…

- It's never "just a brunch". I'm meeting the parents of the man I'm with. This is not too much. Now, let's go, we're already late!"

It took us an hour to get to my parents' house. I called Emmett and pretended to have woken up late to justify my tardiness.

When we finally arrived, I took a deep breath and got out of the car.

Let the show begin!

We finally heard a car making its way up the driveway.

We stood up and went to greet him. Alice glanced at me one more time, giving me a look that said " You promised you wouldn't run away" and I nodded. I won't run away.

The door opened and there stood…

A beautiful strawberry blonde. Wearing a tight expensive looking white dress with matching pumps.

I really, really doubt that's the brother. Everybody looked as confused as me. Who the hell was she?

Just then, a voice I knew too much said from behind her:

" Tanya, I told you to wait for me so that we could…"

He joined her at the door and his gaze fell on me.

Oh my God!

Edward Cullen was actually... well, Edward Cullen!

"-Bella! I want you to meet my brother Edward. Did I ever mention before that his name was Edward?"Alice asked.

Well darling, you didn't.

So? How was it?
