Chapter 8: Meeting The Cullen's

Bella's POV:

We were about to go downstairs when I tripped and I was about to go face first into the stairs when I pair of cool arms grabbed me around the waist. I looked up to see Edward holding me.

I thanked him before we continued walking downstairs.

I noticed there was smoke coming from the other room. That must have been the fire.

As we rushed out the front door, Edward scooped me up in his arms, and put me on his back. "What are you doing?" I asked him curiously.

"Well, we're going to take you back to our place. You might want to close your eyes." He told me. After remembering how he sped out of my room with a blink of an eye, I closed my eyes.

I felt the whooshing of air blowing againest my face. I thought about opening my eyes, but decided againest it because I would probably get dizzy.

A Couple Hours Later

When I awoke, I found myself in a comfy purple bed. Where am I?! I thought, panicked. I jumped off the bed and looked around the room. There was a big window in the middle of the room, The walls were a lavender kind of color, there was a white rug on the floor and a closet the size of my old bedroom. My old bedroom. tears poured down my face silently as I started thinking of my amazing parents. Renee and Charlie. I missed them so much.

I couldn't cry now though. I quickly wiped away my tears and headed for the door, as I was about to reach it the door swung open and a girl that looked about 4"9 stood there. She had short, black spikey hair and was grinning at me like crazy. "Hi! I'm Alice, Edward's brother and I just know we're going to be best friends!" Alice said, bouncing up in down.

I smiled at her in return. "Hi Alice, I'm Bella."

She grinned at me. "I know! So do you want to meet the rest of the family?" She asked.

"Sure, I guess." I replied. She grabbed my arm and pulled me down the stairs. I looked around in awe. Their house was huge!

As she pulled me into a room, which I assumed was the living room, six people were sitting on a couch.

They all had golden eyes except for Edward. He had coal black eyes.

"Bella this is Esme." Esme walked up to me, smiling. Her eyes held warmth and love. She had caramel colored hair and was wearing a turquise dress and black heels. She hugged me before saying, "Hello Bella, I'm Esme."

I said hello and Alice started on the next person. "This is Carlisle, Esme's husband." Carlisle came up. He had blond hair and golden eyes. He wore a light blue shirt and had black shoes. He said hello before sitting back on the couch.

"This is Rosalie." She said. A tall girl walked up to me. She had gorgeous blond hair and the same golden eyes. Rosalie had on a black dress. "Hi." I said to her. She glared at me before sitting on the couch.

Alice threw me an apologetic look before continuing. "This is Emmett, Rosalie's husband." Emmett walked up to me and grinned. He was huge! He had the biggest muscles I'd ever seen. "Hey squirt!" He said. I smiled at him. "Hello."

"This is Jasper, my husband." Alice said smiling. Jasper walked up to me. He had messy blond hair and his golden eyes turned black. He looked like he was in pain for some reason. He smiled at me and said a 'hello'. before sitting back down.

"And you already know Edward, so know you know everyone!" Alice said grinning. I smiled at her back. I knew I would get along with the Cullens. Well, maybe except Rosalie.

Hey, it's Ashlyn! So I have finally finished this chapter and I'm so sorry it came out so late. I'll try my best to update soon but I won't make any promises in case it doesn't come out soon. Please Review! :)
