Hello All! It's been a little while since I posted a new fic, but that's because I've been so focused on finishing this series' finale, which is also just about ready to be posted. I hope you all enjoy reading this fic, and if not well hey the series is almost over anyways LOL. Thank you all for reading, and like always I own nothing but my own crazy brain. :) - Liona

EJ's POV:

I'm pretty sure I'm being tortured right now, and by someone who is slightly evil and relentless.

"EJ, could you not look so mopey? You are so much like your mother." Alice said as she put a stack of grey envelopes on the table.

"I'm not moping, I just don't see the point of this." Alice had been helping Michel and me plan everything for the wedding this summer, and her most recent task was getting all the invitations sent out. Apparently, it's nicer looking and more personal to have Michel and I sign each one, but I severely disagree.

"Come on now, Love, at least she didn't have us right out everything by hand." Michel leaned over and kissed my cheek, but I couldn't help but glare at him for being on my aunt's side. "Now don't give me that cute look."

I rolled my eyes, "I just can't believe we're inviting this many people." Alice had written a huge guessed list comprised of not only our friends and family in Forks, but just about everyone Michel and Nelly know back in London.

"Well believe it!" Nelly walked into the room with Leah right behind her. "You have a lot of people who love you, and can't wait to see you 2 finally make everything official." My energetic best friend walked over to the dining table and sat next to Michel. "I can't wait! You 2 are going to look so fucking adorable!"

"Tone it down, Nel." Leah stood behind her girlfriend with a hand on her shoulder.

"Oh, you haven't seen anything yet." Nelly said excitedly. "We'll let you 2 get back to work, have fun!" Nelly gave us both an evil smile before dragging her girlfriend out of the room, and I'm pretty sure out of the house. Alice had put Nelly in charge of several projects that she wasn't allowed to inform us about, which both excites, intrigues, and terrifies me.

Michel leaned back in for another kiss, and this time I returned it. After a moment we both pulled back and continued on with this incredibly tedious project.

After a short time I heard a slight knock coming from the front door, which is very unusual. I looked over at Alice, but she seemed a bit confused. She started walking in the direction of the door, and Michel and I followed behind her.

"Alice?" I tried to get her attention, but she just continued walking. I could hear an unfamiliar heart beat, so it's not a vampire. I felt my own heart skip and I felt something in my very core I hadn't since I first met Michel.

Alice didn't hesitate and opened the door. There stood a girl who looked maybe 9 or 10 dressed in all black like she had just come from a funeral. She had long straight black hair, hazel colored eyes, and deathly pale skin. She didn't say a word but smiled at the 3 of us.

Michel walked in front of Alice and me, and instantly looked defensive. I couldn't blame him, he could tell too. This little girl was like us, a hybrid.

"May I ask what you've come here for?" Michel asked in a very polite tone, but still acted as if he was ready to defend Alice and me.

"This is the Cullen residence, correct?" She asked in a bell like tone.

"It is." Alice kept her usual sweet demeaner, but I could tell from how she stood that she was prepared for anything.

"Good. I was certain, but it doesn't hurt to ask. If I have to guess, you must be Alice Cullen, right?"

"Yes." Alice said with a slight hesitation.

"Since you 2 are both male hybrids I'm assuming one of you is Edward Jacob Cullen, but I'm afraid I don't have any current information for a second male."

She speaks very sweetly but also very official, "I'm EJ, and this is Michel." I put a hand on my fiancé who nodded his head at the girl.

"It's a pleasure to meet you all. My name is Marie. I hope I'm not being an inconvenience in any way, but I've heard quite a lot about the Cullen Clan, and I was hoping to meet you all in person."

"Well.. ok then." Alice returned the sweet smile, but Michel and I looked at one another cautiously. "Marie, exactly who told you about us?"

I heard a car coming towards the house, and a few seconds later a grey Volvo pulled in. My parents have impeccable timing as always. Jasper and Rosalie were with Emmett in his jeep following behind Mom and Dad. Dad quickly parked his car in front of the house, and got out with Mom. Dad can read someone's mind from a pretty impressive distance, so I'm guessing he's already been in Marie's thoughts for a short time now.

"Alice?" Dad's eyes were shifting from my aunt and then to Marie, "Did she tell you where she's from?"

"You must be Edward." Marie stated.

"We were just getting to that." Alice gave my Dad a worried and slightly confused look.

Dad just stared at the girl while Mom and their siblings stood next to him.

"Edward, she's just a child." Rosalie sounded very concerned.

"Trust me, she isn't. Are you?" Dad asked Maire.

"It's quite a pleasure to meet you all." Marie said in the same tone she's had since her arrival. "I was hoping I could introduce myself to your whole clan at once, but individually is ok too. My name is Marie, I'm Aro's daughter."

What the actual hell?!

Guess what? I'm going to go ahead and post the second chapter, should already be there by the time you finish reading this sentence ;)- Liona
