The car ride was fairly quiet. Rose would talk to me off and on. She would tell me how I would enjoy living with them. I would look up and see Esme smile, but she had a worried look on her face. Carlisle would reach over and squeeze her hand to reassure her everything would be ok. Were they having second thoughts? I knew it was a risk to take me in, but I didn't want to be a burden on them.

My thoughts were interrupted when I saw a house come into view. All I could do was stare at it. It was so big. The house was technically still in Maine, but they lived about ten miles from the Canadian border. Their house was secluded in the forest, which made sense since they were vampires and wanted to keep people at a distance.

The car soon stopped and Rosalie was helping me out of the car. I looked up and saw how big the house really was. "Woah." I couldn't help but to say. From a distance the house looked big but up close it was bigger.

Rosalie, Carlisle, and Esme all chuckled. I smiled and looked up at them. I was happy for the moment and thats all that mattered for now. Rose knelt down to my level and looked me in the eyes. Man I cannot wait until I am taller. Being a midget sucks. "Are you ready to meet the rest of the family Sophie?"

I instantly get nervous. I'm finally going to meet the rest of the Cullen's and I can't help but to get nervous. "What if they don't like me?"

Rose smiled. "Their going to love you." she tucked a piece of my brown hair behind my ear. I smiled at her when she did that. "Ready?"

"Ready." I said while nodding my head. She smiled and took my hand.

"Ok." Rose led me to the door of the house and let Carlisle and Esme head in first.

When I got into the house it led to the living room. Wow the inside was huge as well.

I looked around me and saw in the living room stood the rest of the Cullen's. Jasper, Emmett, Edward, and Alice.

Stephenie Meyer had them down pat. They were absolutely beautiful. Alice looked like a pixie with her short spiky hair and Jasper had his honey blonde locks. He looked to be in pain. Well he is the newest one to be on the vegetarian diet.

I was cautious that I didn't notice that Alice was bristling with excitement until she spoke to me.

"Sophie!" I jumped at the volume she spoke my name in. "It's so nice to finally meet you! Welcome home! Oh you are just going to love it here. Me and Esme already have your room all set up. I can't wait for the future shopping trips that I am seeing. Oh, you are going to love Paris during fashion week."

Wait, what? Shopping trips? Fashion week? Everything she was saying was constantly pilling up on top of what she was saying next. All this information started to overwhelm me. I knew she would be something like this but I never imagined it would be like this. Well, not so soon anyways.

Rose put a hand on my shoulder and stepped in front of me a little. "Alice." She growled. I could just see the glare she was sending Alice.

Alice immediately stopped. "Sorry." She looked apologetically. I instantly felt this wave of calmness over take me. Thanks Jasper. I needed that.

Carlisle took my hand in led me over toward the others. "Sophie. I would like you to meet the rest of our family. This is Alice and Jasper. And you probably remember Emmett and Edward." I nodded.

"Hi." Jasper sent me a smile. So he didn't hate me, good to know. I looked at Edward to see that he looked frustrated. Huh, so you still can't read my mind. Good because I want to keep it that way.

"Hey short stack." I look up to see Emmett smiling at me.

"Short stack? I'm not pancakes you know." Laughter soon joined the quiet atmosphere.

Emmett smiled. "Yep. She's a keeper."

Rose turned and glared at him. "You will in no way shape or form corrupt her."

"No promises babe." I had to smile at that. Everyone started to walk away. Rose told me to stay were I was at. She had to get something. Only Carlisle and Edward remained.

I looked at Edward who was at the other side of the room. "You ok?"

He smiled a little. "I'm fine."

"Then why are you standing all the way over there? I'm not the plague you know."

Booming laughter came from upstairs. "Yea she's a keeper!"

Eddie smiled. "Yea I know." He walked to me slowly and knelt down to my level. "I just find you hard to read."

"Is that a bad thing?"

"No. It's quite relaxing actually."

"Good." I couldn't help but to smile. I felt that everything would be ok after all.

xxxxxxx

Four years have gone by. Rose was like a second mom to me. Her and Alice both would constantly spoil me. It did get annoying at times but I always enjoyed it. I sometimes called Carlisle and Esme mom and dad. They didn't seem to mind. They seemed happy when I did it. I've felt nothing but love between all of them. Emmett and Jasper got me into video games early on.

Rose slapped and yelled at Emmett for a whole day when she heard me cussing when Emmett beat me at a video game. She said and I quote "your corrupting her mind." I was grounded for a week and not allowed to play any video games for awhile.

Me and Alice played together a lot. She always had me try different clothes on and would take me on shopping trips. I was basically her human barbie doll. I never minded though.

Out of everyone I was the closest to Edward. I think him not being able to read my mind relaxed him. When he was around me, he wasn't bombarded by my thoughts. I tended to spend a lot of time with him.

They finally told me that they were all vampires a year after they adopted me. They caught on to how I noticed that they never ate and never seemed to sleep.

They were surprised when I didn't run or scream. I just said ok and that I trusted them. I mean if they wanted to kill me they would have already. Emmett was happy when they told me because he could finally run around the house at full speed. Always did give me a head ache when he would constantly run around me in a blur.

We currently live in Canada. It was basically always cloudy and dark all the time. I didn't mind that though. I met the Denali's and Peter and Charlotte. They were all kind and understanding. Yes it took them a second to come to terms that a human was living with a group of vampires. But they all quickly turned into a second family to me.

Edward and Rosalie were over protective when Peter and Charlotte came to visit them one day. It was the first time that I met them and they were a little on edge. They said they didn't trust them to be alone with me. That was annoying. To always have them around and hovering. But they were being cautious.

The Volturi haven't made a house call yet. They probably didn't know about me yet but they probably will soon. News around the vampire community traveled fast if you weren't careful. I was worried about it and so were the others. I knew that they would possibly kill me and I was terrified over that fact. The Volturi always did creep me out when I read about them. Carlisle said that when that day comes for when I do meet with the Volturi, we would be prepared.

I currently found myself watching tv with everyone. We were watching a football game that I wasn't paying any attention to. I was paying attention to Emmett yelling at the tv saying his team was pathetic and losing the game. Me and Edward just laughed at everything he said. His antics always did amuse me.

I heard the telephone start to ring in the background. Carlisle got up to answer it since we were all paying attention to something else. As soon as he picked the phone up Alice gasped. The tv volume instantly went down. I looked at Alice and then at Carlisle. Carlisle's form instantly seemed to freeze.

"Yes. I understand." He turned to me and his eyes had an alarmed look to it. "It's for you Sophie." What? Who would want to talk to me?

Everyone looked to be on edge as I walked over to the phone and took it out of Carlisle's hand.

I slowly put it up to my ear and calmly said "hello?"

What I heard next made my blood run cold.

"Hello. This is Sophie I presume."


Sorry for the huge time skip. She's at the age of ten now. I wanted to get things moving along and felt that if I didn't then I would be stuck on Sophie being young for a while. I feel that the next chapter will be better than this one. This basically introduced her to the rest of the family and started with her living with them. They next chapter will really get her into the vampire world. Hopefully I will have the next chapter up soon. College has been kicking butt and haven't had as much time to write as I would like. I'm an art major and I basically spend my whole time in the art building finishing up projects outside of my class periods. I basically live in the art building. Well until next time! Stephanie Meyer owns Twilight btw.
