I am sooo sorry, but I type my fan fiction on my laptop and our wireless internet broke so I had to wait to put it up. Grrr. YAY!!!! Okay, I'll stop rambling now. Here is Chapter 14 of To Trust a Vampireā¦
BPOV
As I woke up the next morning, I was greeted by the smell of chocolate chip pancakes and bacon. Yum. I opened my eyes and saw that Edward was leaning on one arm looking at me with love. "Morning beautiful." he said. I smirked at him, highly doubting that, and windswept a mirror into my hands. "AGH!!" I screamed at what I saw. "You call this gorgeous? My hair looks like there are rats living in it. Edward, I think you need your eyes checked." I giggled at the smirk that now settled on his face. "Bella, you would look beautiful even if you were covered from head to toe in pond scum and you had horrible breath." He kissed my hair softly before pulling me out of bed and throwing me over his shoulder.
"Edward! You prick! Let me down right now or I will kill you. Well, I wouldn't kill you, but I'd definitely hurt you." Punching on Edward's back, I screamed at him. "I-" I was silenced when we began to descend down the stairs and Edward purposely made sure to jump down each step so I was bumping to much to talk. Gosh I hate this man.
When Edward had finally finished jiggling my brain loose from my brainial, wait, is that even a word? I don't care, either way. As I was saying, once my brain was nice and loose from my brainial cord, Edward plopped me down into a chair. There, sitting in front of me, was an amazing breakfast that I'm sure tasted just as good as it smelled. I took a bite and my theory was confirmed. "Mmhhhh! Esme, this is amazing! You are an awesome cook! Thank-you so very much!" "Your welcome dear. I'm glad you like it. I'm actually just happy that you've liked everything I've cooked for you so far. I thought I had gone rusty, seeing as I haven't had a need to cook in nearly a century." Esme smiled and kissed my forehead. I continued to eat my food and ignored Edward for the next twenty minutes as I finished eating and cleaned my plate. I could see the anxious look on his face and I laughed internally to myself evilly. "Bella, I'm sorry for carrying you down the stairs like that. It was wrong of me. Could you ever forgive me?" Aww. He's so cute when he's apologizing. I started to walk towards him as if I was going to hug him and forgive him, but this chica's got a plan or two up her sleeve. I stood right in front of him and just as he bent down to give me a kiss I grabbed him and threw him over my shoulder and took off into the air and out the door. "Not liking it so much now that we are the dude in distress are we Edward?" I giggled at his struggling. Guess he didn't know that I'm about as strong as him. Or he just didn't want to hurt me. I don't really care, either since I've got him up here. Ignoring his protests, I dropped him.
"Isabella Cullen. You are so going to regret that," Edward snarled at me. I waited a few moments while he looked up at me half confused and half playfully angry. "What-" I cut him off by saying, "No, I don't think so. It's been a while and I'm still not regrettin' it." I laughed at his glare, and Edward took advantage of the situation. While I was paralyzed with laughter, Edward ran to the tree nearest me, climbed up, and jumped on me. Huh. Now that I think about it, it probably wasn't the best idea for me to be so close to a tree considering the fact that vampires can climb trees. Edward caught me by surprise and we plummeted to earth. I laughed, but Seeing the look on Edward's face, which was panicked, I looked at him in confusion. "Edward, what's-" But I was cut off due to the fact that I had made an impact with the ground. Edward looked at me in anguish and in anger. "Edward, why are you mad? Did I upset you at all?" He pinched the bridge of his nose. "No Bella. It was me. I shouldn't of jumped on you like that. I didn't think about how you could get hurt if we fell to the ground. It was stupid and irr-" I cut him off with my lips. "First of all, You are not stupid or irresponsible. Second, I'm not hurt because I'm a faerie. Third of all, could you get up? If Alice sees me on the ground she'll flip 'cause I'm 'ruining my clothes' Wait, a darn cotton pickin' minute. I don't care! Ha!" He smiled timidly at me. "You sure you're not hurt Bella? I could never live with myself if you were." "You overprotective fool. I'm fine. Come on now. Turn that frown upside down." I kissed his lips gently yet passionately. "I love you Edward." "And I love you too, my Bella."

Man I love Bella. And I can't believe that she's all mine! ARGH! I still can't believe I was stupid enough to jump on her so that we both plummeted to earth!! I just hope that she truly isn't hurt because I meant what I said. I don't know how I would react if she became hurt. Would I wallow in self misery, cause mayhem and destruction in my anger? I don't know. I just think that Bella's being ridiculous. I mean, she expects me to go on living without her if she dies. I am a soulless monster. She is a beautiful, pure spirit who brings joy to everyone around her. Sigh. Before her, I wandered through life feeling empty and lost. Then she came along and threw my world into delightful chaos. She gives me hope that maybe I'm not a monster, and that I might even have a soul. She is, in other words, the light of my life, the holder of my heart, the shooting star of my night sky, my everything. I love her more than words can describe.
Broken out of my musings, my mind reading tuned into station Emmet, who was currently singing Tik Tok by Ke$ha. Really? Sigh. "Rose, do you know what your husband is singing in his head right now?" I said in a calm voice. Edward, man please don't! Rose hates Ke$ha and if she hears about me singing it, no sex for a month! I laughed evilly to myself. "Edward, if he was singing Iron Man again, I really don't care." I heard Rose say from the garage. "No. He was just singing a little ditty called Tik Tok. Maybe you've heard of it before?" I listened in happily as Rose mentally expressed her thoughts on Ke$sha. That slut! She can't sing, her songs are horrible, and she looks like Taylor Swift high on Jack Daniels!! Oooo. Emmet is sooo going to get it. I heard her stomping up the stairs looking murderous. Emmet and Rosalie's bedroom door slammed shut and I heard a symphony of cussing and threats coming from Rose. "Rose, babe. Please forgive me! The song is stuck in my head from some person's car on the highway!! I think she's a total slut she's is a piece of dirt compared to your beauty! You also can sing like an angel while she sings like a duck with strep throat!" I waited a few seconds before Rose's thoughts showed how she decided to forgive Emmet and I quickly tuned out of her thoughts. Animals.
I checked in on Jasper and Alice and saw that the were playing chess. The way they played chess, however, was way different. I still can't believe hyper Alice would sit down to play chess, especially when we Cullen's play with eight boards lined up together, but only three kings and four queens. Pawns fill up the empty spaces of the other nine kings and queens. Alice, even with her future-seeing, can't beat Jasper. Jasper sets it up like a battlefield and has a different tactic for every move Alice makes. Plus, Jasper can make Alice feel so eager to let him win. Sigh. I'm uber bored. (Crap, now I'm using uber, like Bella.) My love is in the shower, Carlisle's at the hospital, Emmet and Rosalie are egh. Jazz and Alice are playing chess, and Esme's reading.
Inspiration came in the form of my piano as I walked into the living room and saw my piano waiting for me. Instantly, the tune that had been bothering me ever since Bella and I confessed our love for each other came to my mind. I sat down on the bench, checked that I wasn't too close or too far away from the piano, and gently started to put the tune into notes. I found that it reminded me of Bella, and as I thought about how much I loved her, more notes spilled from my hands into a flurry onto the keys of the piano. I stopped for a half second, ran up to me and Bella's room, grabbed some blank sheet music and ran back down stairs. At vampire speed I wrote down everything that I had played so far. It still feels unfinished though. I started sixteen measures from the end and played until I got to the end. No inspiration came. Dejectedly I stood up and gathered my music. Why can't I think of anything else!! I can feel it in my heart and bones that I am so close to finishing, but it just needs and end!! Sigh. At least it occupied me for an hour or so.
Cocking my ear upwards toward the shower, I hear that Bella had finally gotten out. Dang, that girl takes forever in the shower, and she likes it extremely hot. Ah well. I love her anyways. I heard light footsteps coming from the stairs and I turned to see an angel with wet hair and sweats on coming towards me. I ran and captured her into my arms. "I missed you so much. Finally, we can spend some alone time together." "I was hoping you would say that," Bella said and proceeded to kiss me urgently and passionately. I hitched my hands under her butt and she jumped up to wrap her legs around my waist. Her hands wormed their way under my shirt to stroke my abs. Meanwhile, my hands slipped under her shirt to her back. She moaned and opened her mouth to allow my tongue to slip inside, which I did so eagerly. I was making my up the stairs when Carlisle came bursting in the door looking apprehensive. Bella and I groaned in unison at being interrupted but she stayed firmly latched to my waist. "Family meeting, NOW!" Carlisle said, rather yelled and ran into the dining room with me following closely behind. Oh, I can't believe they're coming now! And in a week to boot! Why oh why couldn't the wait until Bella and Edward where on vacation, or on their honeymoon or something. That is, to say, whenever gets enough guts to propose to Bella. But that's beside the point. How are we going to hide Bella from them! Or will they even care that she's here? Will they just accept the fact that she is a faerie and not hurt her? I was seriously confused on what Carlisle was thinking about, and it scared me. Just hearing the words Bella, hide, and hurt scared the living daylights out of me.
"Carlisle, what's going on! Me and Rosie were just- What happened." It was as if a light switch had turned off. Emmet's serious demeanor instantly turned serious in an instance. "Carlisle, what happened. Please tell us." My love, the always sound-minded Bella, questioned. "I was at the hospital today when the nurse came around handing out the mail. Naturally, I didn't expect one since nobody ever writes to us. Today, however, I did receive a letter. I was immensely surprised, but I saw that it was from Alaska. That could only mean that it was from the Denali's. I opened the letter, expecting it to be nothing except a friendly letter of correspondence. Sadly, I was extremely wrong. It said this." Carlisle read the letter out loud:
Dear Carlisle and Cullen's,
How are you? We all hope that you are well. You are probably surprised to be reading this, but we wanted to give you a notice. We are coming down to visit you at the end of this next coming week. I hope that this is not at a bad time, but Tanya has been begging for us to come down. She is very eager to see Edward again. The rest of the family are eager to see you as well. Again, I hope that you all are well,
Eleazer
We were all silent for a moment before Rosalie broke the silence. "Outsider vampires are coming, and a faerie is living amongst us."

By the time Carlisle had finished reading the letter, I was frozen in fear. Vampires, who were probably against faeries running free, were coming to kill me. Would the Cullen's abandon me for their own kind when it came right down too it? Or would the love me all the same and protect me. So many questions, so many answers that I don't know. I looked over at Edward, terrified. Edward looked at me, and seeing my scared expression, pulled me into his chest. "Bella, it's alright. We'll think of something." "I actually have an idea that might work, but it's risky." "Carlisle, no. Absolutely not!! I will not endanger her like that." Edward apparently read Carlisle's mind and opposed Carlisle's idea. "Carlisle, tell us. We might be able to come up with something that will work based on your idea," Jasper said.
"I thought that we could explain to the Denali's that Bella is with us and what she is. I don't know about you, but if they try to hurt Bella, well, she's my daughter, and I will defend her with everything that I have. Hopefully, they will understand, like we did, and not hurt her. Whatever happens, I hope that the choose to accept Bella." "NO! I will no endanger her like that. I can't allow her to be hurt like that!" Edward yelled. "What do you suppose we do, tell them the can't come? They'll become suspicious, and they may come down here when we're not expecting them!" Jasper said, his voice rising in anxiousness. "Well, Alice will see if they do! And that reminds me. ALICE!! Why didn't you see this earlier!! Why didn't you tell us!" Edward asked. "Don't yell at her," snarled Jasper. "I did see it!! I just forgot that other vampires didn't approve of faeries! And then with the letter coming on Saturday, I forgot in my panic for Bella!" "HEY! Shut up!!! Did anyone ask my opinion?" I yelled, angry that everyone was speaking as if I wasn't there. "Yes everyone. Let Bella speak. What do you have to say sweetie?" I love Esme and her wisdom. "Thank you Esme. Now, as I was saying, I do have a mind and I can think for myself. I agree wholeheartedly with Carlisle. Introduce me to them, and if they choose to hurt me, I'll leave. I shouldn't cause you to fight with your family. They are vampires, like you, after all. I am a single faerie. What am I when there are more vampires. I hate to see you guys fight. So please, just try this for me. If it doesn't work, then blame me. Not Carlisle."
Edward pinched the bridge of his nose. "Bella, I refuse to put you into danger like that. They are only considered cousins to us. You are the love of my life, a sister to Rosalie, Alice, Emmet, and Jasper, and a daughter to Esme and Carlisle. I will not allow you to risk your life just to make us happy. I will also not let you leave. I just found you, and I can't loose you." I sighed in exasperation at Edward's stubbornness and grabbed his face in my hand. "Edward Anthony Masen Cullen. You will do this my way. I've lived my life for too long in the danger zone, and I don't plan to go the easy way any time soon. If you don't give me a chance, I will burn your groin area to a crisp." I could feel my free hand fill with fire and I brought it close to Edward's face to further enforce my point. I could see fear in Edward's eyes, and it softened me up a bit. I pulled the flames farther away from him before kissing him and saying, "Don't worry about me. I'm a big girl and I can take care of myself. I love you. Don't ever forget that." "I love you too Bella. I just can't bear to see you leave me or be hurt." He kissed me again.
"Well, now that that's all settled, I think that I need to hunt. Later." Typical Emmet. Breaking the awkwardness (at least awkward for everyone else, not me and Edward) and suggesting something that everybody needed to do. "I agree. The last time you guys hunted was, what, Wednesday? Go, eat, have fun." Everyone left except Edward who came to say, "I'm still not happy about you being at risk, but I do love you. And you need to come in case Laurent and Victoria come and get you while your gone. It's very unlikely, considering the fact that we aren't going far, but I just want you to be safe. Climb on my back and let's go." I kissed him quickly and eagerly hopped on Edward's back. I know I can fly and all, but I love to be touching Edward.
"Bella, love? Are you alright? This was your idea. No backing out know. It's too late." We were currently sitting in the Cullen's living room. The Denali's were scheduled to arrive any minute now. "Ya. I'm okay. I'm just, ya know, nervous. I really hope they like me cause I just got settled and I don't really want to relocate just yet. I'll be fine. I'm a big girl. If the attack, I'll just fly away." Edward kissed my temple. He stood up and pulled me up into my side. I looked at him questioningly but my questions where soon answered when I heard the car coming down the driveway. 'This is it' I kept repeating in my head. Just breathe Bella. My heart beat quickened when I hear the doors slam and voices coming closer to the house.
The door bell rang, and Carlisle went to answer it. "Hello Eleazer, Carmen, Tanya, Kate, Irina! Welcome to our home. I hope you had a lovely trip. Come! Come inside and sit down." Carlisle opened the door and I saw a man surrounded by four gorgeous women. One looked as if she had Spanish heritage, and the other three looked like sisters. One was a strawberry blonde, one was a pretty redhead, and the other was a platinum blonde. They were very pretty, but the strawberry blonde had a smile to start out, but it soon changed to a glare that was pointed at me. Ah. So this was Tanya. The little slut who wanted Edward. Everyone may have thought that I didn't pay attention to that little sentence in the letter, but it stuck out to me more than any other line. "Who is this," Tanya said in a sickly sweet voice that made me want to gag. "Eleazer, Carmen, Irina, Kate, Tanya. This is Bella, and she is a faerie."
