A/N: Sorry forgot to put this in the first chapter anyway I decided to get back to my roots, or really what caused me to start writing fanfiction, which was twilight at the beginning see the first time I did this it was sloppy. I was also shipping Bella and Alice hardcore, which I still do, but those two are easy to put together I mean come on, right? I wanted something a bit challenging and still feel like I am giving you guys something you like so here it is, a better reinvented twilight fic, Oh yes this is Bella and Rosalie though you guys. I wanted it to be a challenge and well Rosalie herself is a heaven of a challenge so I figured why not? I also will be posting chapters up for the other stories. But here is this one. I plan on writing a Bellice story soon just not anytime soon.
Disclaimer: I do not own any characters from twilight. Come back to this chapter for disclaimer.
My neighbor giggled in embarrassment, looking at the table like I had been doing "That's Rosalie and Jasper Hale, Edward, Emmett, and Victoria Cullen. The one who left was Alice Cullen;they all live together with and his wife." She said under her breath as if they wouldn't have been able to hear her.
I glanced sideways at the beautiful female, who was looking away from me now, picking at something on her tray. Her mouth moving quickly, her perfect lips barely opening. The others still looked away, and yet I felt she was speaking quietly to them.
I finally remembered that my neighbor was called Jessica, a perfect common name. There were two girls named Jessica in my History class back home.
"They are nice looking."
"Yes!" Jessica agreed with another giggle "They're most of the are together though Edward is with Victoria, Jasper and Alice, Emmett and Rosalie are the only single ones. And they live together." Her voice held all the shock and condemnation of the small town, but if I was being honest, I had to admit that even in Phoenix. It would cause gossip.
"Which ones are the Cullens?" I asked. "Not all of them look related…"
"Oh, they're not. is really young, in his twenties or early thirties. They're all adopted. The Hales are brother and sister, twins, and they're foster children."
"They look a little old for foster children."
"They are now, Jasper and Rosalie are both eighteen, but they've been with Mrs. Cullen since they were eight. She's their aunt." With the glances that Jessica was throwing at their adopted children it almost seemed as if she was jealous that she wasn't them "I think that can't have any children, though," she added, as if that lessened their kindness."
As I examined the blonde and ignored Jessica now that I had enough information anymore I could always ask Charlie about, she looked up and met my faze, this time with curiosity in her expression. It was then that I felt it, I felt the surge of feelings, it would have knocked me down on my ass if I wasn't paying attention. I grabbed my things and left without a word early to my next class, Biology II, when I entered the classroom the teacher was already in which I was hopeful for. "Bella, I'm Mr. Banner you can take a seat there." He pointed me to a seat which was by the window although that wasn't exactly my seat at all I just sat next to the seat by my window. Once the bell rang Angela had come in looking at me sideways and a bit confused mostly wondering why I had left so quickly and without her. Banner had returned my slip signed and I recognize one of the Cullens, the one who would be seated next to me, he took his seat without much of a word yet. Banner had handed my book to me again another teacher without doing some silly introductions yet my silence was disturbed "I'm Edward Cullen and you must be Bella," I turned to him his eyes were a golden haze which were beautiful "Charlie wouldn't stop talking about you since he heard that you were coming to stay with him."
"Yeah I bet I know he must have been excited cause the whole town knows of Chief Swan's daughter," to be honest I didn't feel hostile toward him, and I was sure he didn't unless he was just being nice "thanks for not making this awkward you know with the whole species thing." I spoke inhumanly low knowing he could hear me.
"Don't worry," Edward gave a sideways smile "the good thing is you and Charlie don't stink like the mutts down at the Res."
"Actually I hadn't known of the scent difference since Charlie had first mentioned it," which had been a bit after I had shifted "but it's good that I don't since I will be around you guys mostly."
"So how are you enjoying Forks? Have you been able to explore yet?" Edward asked a bit curious which I didn't mind it didn't feel like I was trying to keep a conversation with Jessica or Eric.
"It's nice and a bit more hidden than Phoenix the second part I haven't gotten to do yet since I had gotten in just yesterday. You guys are a pretty large coven, huh?"
"Yup," Edward nodded "eight of us which is good, it keeps nomads out of the area which allows us to stay around longer, and if anything there is a bunch of us to deal with a problem."
"That's awesome," The class was going on and Banner was teaching the same stuff I already knew.
"Did Charlie inform you that I would be part of your training?"
"No way," I stated way more than excited "you are joking? You aren't! That's awesome."
At that moment the bell rang and Edward was up and out form his seat he was sure taller than I thought him to be "Later, Bells." Classes went by pretty quickly and the day came to an end which I was thankful for with the slip turned in I got into the camaro not without noticing the Cullens making their leave. I headed home or sped home finding Charlie sitting in the living room "You didn't tell me I'd be training with one of the Cullens."
"Edward told ya," Charlie looked at me from where he was seated on the couch "well you will be but first you need a bit of training before training for a spar with a vampire."
"So did you figure out the training schedule?"
"Yup," Charlie pointed to the kitchen "it's on the dining table but we are going over to the Cullens before the Blacks come over tonight so that you can be introduced to all of the Cullens."
"Right now?" Charlie nodded "Am I driving or?"
"Driving? We aren't wasting gas." He grabbed his backpack and went out back once I had gotten to him I watched a large oversized grey and black wolf carrying a backpack who dropped it on the floor. He was waiting for me to undress as he turned around so that I could put my clothes in the backpack as he did "You know you have changed my diaper before." Charlie gave a soft growl as I put my clothes in the bag then shifted once he sensed that I was done he picked up the bag in his mouth. Charlie's size was a few inches bigger than me but I was sure that my growth would continue you since he was already an adult since I was only a pup to him. I followed closely behind Charlie enjoying the earth between my paws, the wind rustling through my fur, I know me and Charlie didn't establish a pack connection. To that I wasn't sure maybe because he wanted me to have my own pack or that he just wanted to be a moderator if I did begin a pack any time soon. I was glad we hadn't established that connection because I wasn't ready to share my feelings or thoughts about what has happened with me just yet it was a bit overwhelming. I wanted to handle things myself for now until I felt comfortable which I am sure why Charlie hasn't asked to establish that just yet.
Charlie came to an abrupt stop causing me to ram into his side it didn't even make him flinch as he jutted his nose in one direction I figured we were here and we both needed privacy to change. I turned the other way waiting "Alright here, Bells." I turned to clothed Charlie grabbing the backpack from his hand softly as to not nip him and trotted behind a tree to change back with my clothes on. Once I was done I slung the now empty backpack over my shoulder, following behind Charlie, my senses were going crazy now causing me to growl "Bells," he warned "you need to calm down a bit."
"I know I couldn't help the growl," I took a deep breath calming my wolf who seem to go back to sleep "we are good it was just a bit overwhelming and I still have to get use to them you know since back in Phoenix I was the only one."
Charlie nodded in understanding as we came to the front of a glass mansion, it wasn't a house, a glass mansion like a doll house I once had as a kid. "Charlie," a pale man walked out from the house to greet us "and Bella I assume? Please come in, Esme decided to cook up a small snack for the both of you while we do introductions." Charlie gave the man a hug I was close enough for him to sling his arm around me as I waved a bit at Carlisle "Pleasure to meet you, sir."
"Pleasure is all mine and you can just call me Carlisle, Bella." He shook my hand and I quickly noticed the temperature difference between the both of us "Shall we?" Carlisle led the rest of the way toward where I figured we'd be sitting and talking things through now I realized why Charlie liked them. Carlisle was friendly, as for being a vampire, harmless as well.
"Where are your kids?" Charlie asked as he must have noted the house was a bit quite for eight vampire to be living in it.
"They went to hunt," Carlisle stated "all of them should be arriving soon."
"In three minutes," a woman's voice made music that filled the room and with food at that in her hands "should not be long. I'm Esme it is a pleasure to meet you Isabella, Charlie here was excited to hear about you coming to stay with him."
"I know," I gave a soft smile "the whole town was talking so I figured he must have been excited although it is a rather small town."
"I know you met one of my own," Carlisle asked
"Edward," I nodded "I have him for my biology class and he actually made it fly by in all honesty I thought that they would make it awkward besides Charlie I had never met another immortal."
"Were there known in Phoenix?" Esme asked curiously.
"No, at least not when I first shifted and began running through the desert I never met anyone and I was sure I would know since it would make my senses flare."
"Phoenix is probably a place where not many vampires or werewolves want to go since it is out in the open," Charlie stated "but I am glad she is here since Bells can learn a thing or two."
"Good evening!" The pixie haired girl came gliding through the house and to where we were "Bella I am Alice and this is Jasper."
"Good evening, ma'am." The blonde who I knew was to be the twin to Rosalie Hale seemed like he was in pain at school but now it disappeared from his face. "Bella." It wasn't long till the rest of the Cullen kids began to make their way in I had already noticed Edward who had came up to me anyway with the beautiful redhead. "Bella, pleasure to me you I am Victoria."
"You guys are way to formal," I smiled "nice to meet you though and great to see you again Edward."
Last came in the Beauty and then Emmett who I presumed he was since he was the last male that I hadn't met yet "Belly-button!" And this guy wasn't shy, he was quick to invade my personal space, scooping me up in his monstrosity arms as if we had been friends forever although I was happy. I was happy that they weren't making this hard for me and were accepting of who I am but it was all thanks to Charlie for keeping a friendly alliance with them as well. "Emmett, I have heard so much and if you want to hang out with anyone we can totally do that anytime since these losers are boring."
"Yeah," I was sure he was one of those gaming, free spirited type of guys, he just flowed from him freely "anytime when I'm not training I don't mind at all."
Last but not least, Rosalie although she gave me this sort of dirty look that hurt my feelings, only I didn't let it show. "Rosalie stop being mean and introduce yourself." Emmett nudge her forward like a father "Rosalie, nice to meet you mutt."
I kept the growl from surfacing and I can feel Charlie's eyes watching "Bella." Was all I gave her as she turned to walk away Emmett had followed her out, to lecture her, I had a feeling those to were close.
"I apologize on her behalf," Esme was quick to go to her defence "she does not usually act like that towards anyone."
"It's fine, Bells can handle it." Charlie confirmed.
"It is plus I am sure we'll warm up to each other later on down the future." I gave Esme a reassuring smile who took that but didn't seem full satisfied with it all "So I heard there was snacks and something else to be talked about?"
Esme gave a soft chuckled as she excused herself really quick before she was back in an instant with the snacks that I scarfed down or inhaled "Bells, leave some for me." Charlie whined like a kid and I only handed him two giving him a big ole grin "Brat."
"Anyways, Bella does need to know where the boundary lies I would show her tomorrow but I am working a late shift so I was hoping one of your kids could show her."
"Edward and I can show her," Victoria was the first to speak and offer up "it would also be nice to get to know her out of school and since she would be training with Edward as well."
"That works for me," Charlie nodded in agreement.
"I'm fine with it," Carlisle stated as he continued "did you want us to start her training tomorrow or did you already set that up?"
"I did," Charlie sat up straight as if at a business meeting "she won't be training with you guys just yet I want to have a week with her before introducing her to your sparring sessions. That way she is better prepared for whatever you guys have in store to show her when it comes to your training. Afterwards she will have a week of training with me, then a week with Edward, vice versa."
After having talked for a bit more I was a bit curious as to where Rosalie and Emmett had gone "Ready to go, Bells?"
"Yeah," Everyone said goodbye and we headed out instead of shifting we ran back to the house making it in the same amount of time that we did once we had first left. Charlie had went to take a shower before Billy and Jacob showed, I began on dinner, a lasagna and a side salad, after everything was done I ran upstairs to shower. "Billy, Jacob just in time I think Bells is almost done cooking," I could hear Charlie from downstairs as I got dressed "take a seat at the table lemme go get Bella."
I dried off my hair as fast as I could then headed downstairs "Oh, that was fast Bells."
"Gotta be," I went to grab the lasagna out of the oven "will you get the salad and take it into the kitchen?" Charlie nodded taking the salad as I followed behind with the food, the weird thing when it was just the Blacks and us, is that we hardly ever talked at the dinner table. "So Bells do you have any plans tomorrow after school?" Jacob asked as we were all serving ourselves and I thought about it looking at Charlie for confirmation he merely shook his head 'No'.
"Not really, why?"
"Well we are have a bonfire tomorrow if you want to come hang out for a bit, if it's alright with Charlie?"
"It's fine with me," Charlie looked toward me "you just behave yourself, understood?"
I merely nodded already knowing what he meant by it. Means no shifting, no starting fights, and definitely not outing myself to them because that would not be a good plan in doing, on territory that isn't even mine. Once dinner was over Jake and I decided to head out back afterwards leaving Charlie and Billy to bond over the TV and a beer "What did you dad mean by behave yourself?"
"I..uh use to start fights back in Phoenix so that may have been one of the reasons," I lied "don't worry about it though so how's it down at the Res?"
Well," he shrugged "it's different like there's a big divide between some of us and it's kind of frustrating."
"What do you mean?"
"Well after a certain amount of time everyone begins hanging out with Sam Uley or listening to him and running his errands it's frustrating. Or the fact that Sam hurts Leah even though the both of them were about to get married now they are at each other like cats and dogs."
"Hurt her?"
"Hurt her feelings," Jake sighed "what about you? Make an friends at Forks?"
"Eh," I shrugged not sure if I should mention the Cullens to him him at all "maybe a couple but I'm not a social butterfly I rather stick to myself along with my inner circle."
"Make sense," Jake came to an abrupt stop "do you ever wonder if life could ever be a bit simpler?"
"I wish," I knew what he meant "but if it was then it wouldn't be an adventure, you know?" Jake nodded and he was going to soon find out what I meant, I agree it's a blessing and a curse, but in the end it's a never ending adventure. Or that was the way I tried to see it.
