A/N: I just want to say thanks to my few reviewers! And here's another chapter. Enjoy!
"Um…I'm Bella. These are my sisters, Marsala and Novella, and my brother, Dei. We know what you are, but we do not understand why your eyes are golden instead of piercing red," I said, glancing at my family to make sure I was not saying anything wrong.
Carlisle spoke again, "And what are we?"
Novella answered this time, opening her mouth before I had a chance to speak before her, "Vampires of course! Do you think we are idiots?"
A very pretty, blond one snickered at Novella's remark. I turned my head to glare at her and she stopped at once.
"Why are your eyes golden?" I repeated.
"We do not drink human blood. Only that of animals," Carlisle stated clearly.
Dei looked down and said, more to himself then to everyone, "Oh, that's good. I thought we were going to have to kill you…"
The pretty blond one looked angry and said, "How in the world would a little human kill someone like us?" She really did sound confused though.
"We are not human," Marsala said with a big smile.
"Then what are you?" This time a pixie-like girl with dark hair spoke. Unlike her sister, she did not sound angry at all, just curious.
"Well…we don't exactly know. But we can kill vampires fairly easily," I replied.
The woman next to Carlisle, Esme, I think, looked at us with shock and said, "Are you going to kill us?"
"I don't see why we would have to, you are not harming innocent humans… You know, I'm glad that you don't. I do not like to kill vampires, even if it makes the world safer for humans. Not saying that I won't if I have to…" Dei said, getting annoyed at him self as he babbled on and on.
Carlisle smiled and said, "Now that this has been worked out, we will be one our way. Oh and just to let you know, we have a permanent residence here in Forks, but you are welcome to stay. We should all be cautious not to harm any one in either party." They all turned, and ran off into the woods. I suppose they are anxious to get away from us.
After the vampires left us, we decided to look around the small town and see if we liked it. Since we did not sleep, we had plenty of time look around town and get used to things.
Early the next morning, after practically memorizing every stone in Forks, we came to the conclusion that it would be best for us to stay in Forks. That way, we could keep an eye on the vampires and maybe start a more normal life.
The first thing we had to take care of was a place to stay. We all saw a few interesting houses or apartments that would suit our liking, but in the end, we choose a dark blue house. It was plenty big enough for the four of us, having 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a big kitchen, dining room, living room, family room, and a garage. Novella went to Seattle and took out enough money for the house from different bank accounts and different banks. She came back with so much money, that we could pay the owner straight up for the house. She gave the money to Marsala.
Marsala appeared to be the oldest, so we decided that she would play a wealthy widow with her 3 adopted children, since we looked nothing alike. Marsala and I started walking towards the front door, with Novella and Dei following. We got to the door and Marsala knocked quietly. I heard footsteps in the house, and could tell it was the owner, coming to see who was at the door.
The door opened, and a tall man appeared in the doorway. "Hello. I suppose you are here about buying the house. Have you seen the flier already?" he said kindly.
"Yes we have. My name is Marsala, and it just so seems that this house will be perfect for my family. We know how much it costs, and will offer cash right now, if we can move in today," my "mother" said.
The man looked totally shocked. "Wow. Well, I was not expecting that. My wife and I have already purchased an apartment in Seattle and only stay here during the day. The house does not have any furniture, so I don't see why not. But I'll have to ask my wife first; she does not like me to make any decisions with out her," he said, "Please come in and look around while I talk to my wife and realtor."
"Of course," Marsala said nodding her head and walking in. We all followed suit and came in after her. The house was defiantly perfect for us. It was a mix between modern and classic, which usually did not go together, but in this house, it seemed to very well.
"So, do you all still like it? I really do. I think this house is really nice and that we should get it," Marsala said with a smile. The rest of us agreed, when a petite woman tapped on the wall to let us know that she was coming.
"Hello, my name is Marie. I am Frank's wife. He just sent me up to ask Marsala to come downstairs so they can discuss legal matters," the woman said kindly.
"Hello, these are my children, Novella, Isabella, and Dei," she said, pointing each of us out. Then she said to us, "Children, please take some money and go shopping in the town while I work out legal matters with Marie and Frank."
We all smiled. I took the money Marsala handed to me and headed to the front door. "Bye," we all said at different times.
A/N: Please review! And I think I should get a beta, but I really don't know much about that stuff…
