A/N: Okay, I'm sorry if I have some of you confused. I kno i confused myself alot. See, when i first started this story i was going on way with it. but since then ive been taking a lot of writing classes, and ive gotten other ideas for it. So im going to try to un-confuse you all and myself.
I know i said that Bella's real name is Melanie, but i kept getting confused with Melody's name too. So everyone is just going to call her Bella. Just forget that I said that her name is Melanie, it's not anymore, just Bella. What I was trying to do there was that my two best friends names were Maria and Megan and I thought that it would be cool if the new charmed ones all had the same first letter of their name, like their mothers. And I knew that Paige's daughters were twins so I wanted their names to be similar as well. So thats why I did that. But im not anymore. Bella is Bella.
Now with the whole question of 'how is Bella one of the three youngest when she has a twin' I can easily explain that. Bella and Melody are twins, but Melody was born first then Bella. So Bella is the youngest in her family, just barely. So yeah, I'm really sorry if I confused you all, I'll try not to anymore. Please continue to read and review and aske questions. I'll try to answer them the best I can! Thank you!
The large group landed in the center of the Cullens' living room. The newcomers looked around curiously. The room was large and spacious. There was stairs leading to the other floors. "So, Alice and Rosalie, would you like to show Maria and Megan where they can sleep? Jasper and Emmett, could you show Wyatt and Chris?" Esme instructed.
"Sure, follow me." Alice said, walking to the foot of the stairs. Maria and Megan grabbed their things and followed her, Rosalie right behind them. Alice led them through a maze of hallways, finally stopping in front of two doors. "This is my room, and the one next to it is Rose's. You can sleep here. Pick whichever one you want."
Maria peeked her head into Alice's room. She looked around and saw that it was similar to what her room looked like at home. There was a big bed in the middle of the room. There was a black comforter and matching pillows on the bed. Maria placed her things on the bed and continued to look around. "I like it. It reminds me of my room at the mansion." She nodded satisfingly.
"Great! I'll help you unpack." Alice rushed over to her bag on the bed. Maria unzipped it and started pulling out her things. Alice helped her hang up her clothes in the closet. "Feel free to borrow anything you want. It doesn't look like you brought that many clothes. My stuff should fit you, right?" She pulled out a pair of her jeans and a shirt and held it up to Maria's body. "Yeah, that should fit perfectly."
"Thanks. I will. So, what do you guys do in your spare time? You don't sleep, so you have a lot of time on your hands." Maria asked, sitting on the bed. For the next 20 minutes or so, the two girls go to know each other a little better. Over in the bedroom next door, Rose and Megan were doing the same thing. Edward and Bella appeared at the doorway.
"Esme made us something to eat. If your hungry, it's downstairs." Bella said. Maria nodded and smiled at her cousin. Bella moved on and informed Megan of the same thing. Megan appeared at the doorway also.
"Hey, I'm starving. I'm going to go eat. Coming?" Megan asked.
"Yeah, I'll be right down." Maria assured her. Megan nodded and continued to the stairs. Bella, Edward and Rose followed her. Alice turned to Maria.
"You can go eat, you know. I'll come with you." Alice stood up. Maria did the same and followed Alice as she left the room.
Downstairs in the kitchen, Bella, Megan, Wyatt and Chris were eating the meal that Esme whipped up for the humans. "Here you are, Maria. Have something to eat." Esme offered her a plate laddened down with delicious smelling food. Maria accepted it with a smile and took a seat next to Bella.
"So, Bella. You never really explained how you met the Cullens." Maria said. She took a big mouthful, looking at her cousin intently.
"Yeah, that's a long story." Bella sighed and told them how she came to know the Cullen family and how she figured out what they were. By the end of her story, Maria, Megan and Bella were done eating.
"Thanks Esme. That was really good. What time is it?" Maria asked. Megan looked at her watch and gasped.
"It's after midnight! Today was a long day."
Maria yawned loudly and looked at everyone. "Yeah now that you mention it, I'm exhausted!"
"Oh, no! Charlie! I was supposed to be home hours ago!" Bella suddenly remembered. She looked franticly at Edward and Alice.
"Don't worry, remember you were going to sleep over? We were going to celebrate your birthday tomorrow." Alice reminded her.
"Oh, yeah. Okay, I'm tired too." Bella looked at her cousins. Maria kept yawning, which made Megan yawn, which made Maria yawn, etc. She raised an eyebrow at the two.
"What are you two doing?"
"Having a contest. See who can make the other yawn more. Why do you want to join in?" Maria said through a yawn.
"No thanks."
"Too late." Maria looked right at Bella and yawned which made Bella yawn, which made Megan yawn, etc. The Cullens just stared at them strangely, but laughed when they realized that they couldn't stop yawning.
"Oh, no. Now what do we do?" Megan cried through a yawn.
"Go to sleep. Get into seperate rooms." Maria said standing up. She quickly made her way to the stairs and climbed them. Megan and Bella laughed as they watched her retreat to her bedroom.
"I guess we should go too. Goodnight." Megan said standing up as well and headed for the stairs. She looked back at Bella who was talking with Edward. She shrugged and continued up to her bedroom. She passed Maria's door and looked in. Maria was pulling on sleeping shorts and a tank top. She looked up at Megan.
"Hey. What are you up to? Come in." Maria invited her, sitting on her bed. Meg walked in and sat across from her.
"Nothing really, just on my way to get ready for bed. So, what do you think?"
"About what?" Maria asked curiously.
"About all of this? Everything? Are you ok? Today was pretty rough on you and Wyatt. Are you healing ok? Maybe Carlisle should take another look at you." Megan asked worriedly.
"I'm fine, and so is Wyatt. I just think we should enjoy this peace and quiet while we can. It's not going to last for very long." She yawned. "Ugh, Im exhausted. We should get some sleep."
"Your right. Alright, good night." Megan got up from the end of the bed and left the room. Maria stood up pulled down the covers on the bed and slipped in under them. She snuggled down beneath the blankets and was asleep before her head hit the pillow.
