a/n: Dedication- Bella595: I'm so glad you found the song just as moving as I did. It's really a touching song. The song was the main part of this chapter as well, so I am very glad that you caught that element. Glad you enjoyed it.

xoLovelyEyesox: Thanks for you're review, it is actually mid October. School just started pretty much, it's only a month in so Bella just came and she didn't miss much.

I-Tried-To-Fix-You: Thanks for your review! That is a great suggestion, since you and Olympic1340 both pretty much requested the same thing, this chapter is going to have what you both wanted in here. This chapter is going to be when Bella meets his siblings, and I am not sure about this yet, but I might also have her run into his mother and father as well, but for now just his siblings.

Bronzehairedfreak1901: Thanks for your review as well! I promise, lemons will be in there, some limes through out the chapters but the real lemons won't come for some time, but I do promise if you're patient, I will come through.

World of Peace, icefang7, and Unseen Wonder: Thank you guys very very much for the reviews!

Okay, ready or not, here we go.

I woke up to the sun shining through my window. Squinting, I got up from my bed, heading for the bathroom. Charlie was already gone for work and Edward would be here in a few minutes. I took a fast shower and cleaned up, getting dressed at lighting speed.

I peered out the window in my bedroom, just in time to see the small shiny Volvo pull into my drive way. I took the stairs two at a time, so ready to see him. I was putting on my shoes when a soft tap on the door made my head shoot up. I put on the biggest smile I could and pulled the door open, my smile instantly pulling down into a frown. His smile was beautiful on his flawless lips, but his left eye was closed slightly, rimmed by a dark purple bruise.

He bent down to kiss me but my hands were instantly touching the side of his eye. He flinched slightly and I pulled my hand away, letting him brush his lips against mine gently. "Good morning sunshine." I kissed his cheek as he stood up, wrapping my arms around him, "Morning." I couldn't take my eyes off of his eye, and he seemed to notice. "It doesn't hurt or anything, don't worry." He didn't stop smiling as we headed for his car.

I was having an internal debate about whether or not I should ask him about. I settled into my side of the car as he started it and I took a deep breath. "How did you get it?" He grinned crookedly much to my surprise, "I was wrestling with my brother, Emmet." I giggled, that wasn't what I was expecting to hear. "Why?" He grinned sheepishly, "We do weird things together, we were arguing and he attacked me, and we started play fighting, and he hit me by mistake. I bruise really easy." I forced a smile, at least it wasn't his father who hurt him. "Did you hurt him?" I glanced at him as she laughed, "Me hurt Emmet? The guy is all body and no brains, I didn't get one hit."

The drive to school was seemed shorter than usual and I was reluctant to get out of the car. We stepped out and headed for the school. He walked me all the way to my first period class in almost complete silence. We stood outside the door and faced each other. I smiled shyly and he grinned, kissing my lips quickly. "I will see you 6th period my love," and with that he was heading down the hall. I sighed quietly, walking in and taking my seat quickly.

A small black haired pixie sized girl appeared in front of my desk and I looked up at her with unsure eyes. "You must be Bella." The girl smiled a brilliant smile. She was very pretty, her short black hair spiked out in all different directions. "Yes I'm Bella." Her smile widened, "I'm Alice, Edward's sister." That's where I knew her from, I saw her at lunch with him that first day.

"Hey Alice, Edward told me about you." She glanced at the open seat next to me, "Mind if I sit with you?" I shook my head, moving my stuff over more to give her more room. "So, you're the one dating my brother?" I offered a smile, trying to seem confident. "Listen Bella, please." She looked at me, her eyes were serious. Swallowing hard, I nodded. "I don't know how much you know about Edward yet, but he's not normal Bella." I felt stunned, "He's normal, what makes you think he's not?"

Alice looked at my sympathetically, "He has some problems Bella, I know he has told you at least a few things." I was getting frustrated, how could she say that about him? She saw my expression and rushed to correct herself, "Bella you're misunderstanding me. I love my brother, more than you can imagine. I'm trying to protect him, he's never had a girlfriend, he's fragile. Basically, I'm asking you not to hurt him anymore than he is already hurt."

My frustration melted and I smiled warmly at her, I knew I was going to like Alice right away. "Don't worry Alice, I would never hurt your brother." She smiled slightly, taking out her book and a pen. "So Bella, you're new to Forks?" I shrugged, glancing at her paper as she started coping the notes. Her hand writing was immaculate, each letter was perfect. "I have been here before, to visit my dad, but I just started living here a few weeks ago."

The teacher was absent today, leaving us with a creepy skinny sub with oily hair who just told us what to copy and left it at that. I spent the period talking with Alice. She was the first girl here that I had met that I actually got along with and had things in common with. We laughed as we told each other stories of our past. She was nothing like Edward, she was bubbly, hyper, and happy. Edward was quiet, shy, and nervous. "Edward is nothing like you." She smiled, "He used to be just like me, he changed a lot though."

I couldn't imagine Edward being talkative and happy like Alice, though I wish he would be. I was going to ask Alice more, but the bell interrupted us. She got up, collecting her stuff and turning to me once more. "I will see you around Bella." She winked at me before scurrying out of the class. I collected my bags and headed for the door, jumping when as soon I was out the door someones hands grabbed my hips. "Surprise."

I relaxed when I heard the musical voice of my boyfriend. "I thought I wouldn't be seeing you until Biology?" He turned me to him, his hand on my face as he leaned in. "I couldn't stay away from you that long love." He kissed me sweetly and I sighed when he broke it, stupid school and their no-affection rules.

He walked me to my next class, "Oh and Bella, Biology is 6th period, did you forget that we are in the same lunch as well?" I smiled, I didn't forget, I just didn't want him to feel like he had to sit with me. "You can sit with me and my siblings if you want, or we could go sit with your friends, or by ourselves, where ever you please."

I thought about it, I really didn't want him sitting with my 'friends', which I could hardly call them. Jessica would ask to many questions, Mike and Tyler would be snobs, Lauren would be rude. Angela would be the only one that would give us peace, and as much as I liked her, she wasn't enough of a reason to sit there. The thought of sitting by ourselves was nice, but I didn't want to take him away from his family or bring more attention on us than there already was. The first option seemed like the best, I really wanted to meet the rest of his family.

I didn't expect Alice to be like she is, I wanted to get to know the rest of them. "I think we should sit at your table with your family. Speaking of which, I met Alice today." He grinned at the sound of her name, "What did you think?" I smiled at the excitement in his voice, "She was very nice, we had a nice long talk, I like her." He grinned even more, kissing me quickly. "You can tell me all about it later. You will love the rest of my family too, I promise." He grinned once, kissing my cheek and heading down the hall. I looked after him until he turned the hall and was out of site.

My classes couldn't have gone by fast enough. I was both excited and nervous about 5th period. What if the rest of his family didn't like me like Alice did? I took a deep breath, I had to think positive. Mike bothered me all through History, rambling on about something that I was sure I didn't care about. To bad it wasn't Friday, every Friday there was only 6 periods in the day, the rest of the week there were 8. After I had Biology with Edward, I had another 2 periods to go before I could actually be with him.

Jessica was even more annoying than Mike was in Spanish. All she could do was talk about the new cloths she had gotten over the weekend. I held back the urge to roll my eyes as she went over all the compliments she received and how many different boys glanced her way. She honestly thought I cared, it was disgusting how she spoke of people. She complained how Lauren had on the same top as her and that she was trying to steal attention from her.

She than shut up, glancing over at Angela who was talking to one of the many boys that Jessica had her eye on. "Look at her, she thinks she can get him, when even I can't." I frowned, turning to her, "Have you ever considered that not every boy is going to just fall head over heals for you?" Her mouth dropped open and I was happy when the bell rang and I headed for the door.

1 period. I was 1 period away from lunch, seeing Edward, and meeting the rest of his family. My heart beat sped up in excitement, I couldn't wait. I wasn't sure exactly what was going to happen, but it couldn't go all bad. I tried to think positive as I walked slowly to my next class. I would make a good first impression on the Cullens, if I was confident.

a/n: There you all go, another chapter! The idea of Bella spending some time with Edward's family was a suggestion made by both Olympic1340 and I-Tried-To-Fix-You. Thanks very much for the suggestion guys, I hope I wrote the beginning of her and his families relationship well, she will meet the rest of them next chapter. I love suggestions, it challenges me to come up with a plot for your request and write it in a way that would be appealing to my readers, and plus I never run out of ideas than, so no fear of writers block! Any more suggestions you have, even little things like scenes you want to read, or bigger like plots, please feel free to post them. I hope you enjoyed this chapter, thanks again for all of your reviews, they really make my day. The next chapter might be up later or tomorrow.
