I stepped out of the car, onto the damp soil that squished underneath my torn up runners. The air here was so clean, and smelt like rain. City air was revolting in comparison. The entire lot was surrounded by massive trees, still visible in the darkness. The interesting shades of green danced around us, swaying in the faint wind. It was beautiful.

Demetri came from behind me, grabbing my arm with irresistible strength, and began towing me up the steps. Felix joined him, grabbing my other arm.

Demetri or Felix didn't bother knocking, because a half a second later, the door opened widely, exposing us to the bright lights from inside.

"How may I help you gentlemen this evening?" A calm voice spoke through the door. I peered up through the light at the angel faced man standing before us. He had fair hair that glistened in the light, with the same ivory skin like the rest of us, but there was something different. I scanned his features carefully until I came across his eyes that were a surprising shade of butterscotch. It was strange, in a way, I found those eyes calming, maybe because they weren't glowing with human blood.

"Carlisle," Felix nodded.

"I take it this isn't a social visit," Carlisle noted, glancing at me.

"I'm afraid not. Aro has sent us to take care of some business," Demetri informed him, glaring at me from the corner of his eye.

"Ah, would you like to come in?" Carlisle offered, gesturing towards the inside.

"No, that won't be necessary. However we do have a request." Demetri continued.

"Oh. I believe Alice has informed us of your situation already," Carlisle said with little smile.

"Then it's understood," Demetri loosened his grip on my arm and Felix did the same. He turned to face me with the same unemotional face I had been looking at for the past 48 hours. "Go," He nodded towards the house. I could feel the crease in my brow, but I obeyed. Carlisle moved aside for me to pass into the house, I took a few steps before looking back at the scary looking men outside.

"We'll be back to check up on her in a few months. For now we ask you to keep her stable and away from harming the public."

"I understand. Well, until next time." Carlisle said in an even voice.

They nodded in agreement and disappeared from the steps. I could hear the engine start again. The headlights briefly flashed in the window, then turned onto the road, trailing down until I could see it no more. Finally they were out of my life…for now. Crap.

Carlisle shut the door softly, then came to face me. "What to do now?" He smiled down at me.

It felt nice to see a smile, and to be here in this small heaven, away from darkness, away from fear.

I managed to smile stiffly. It had been a while since I had actually been able to move freely, that was nice to.

"Ah. I know. Let's introduce you."

He put a gentle hand on my shoulder, to turn me away from the door. "Might I ask your name?" He questioned innocently.

Of course, I should have introduced myself earlier; it wouldn't have been as rude.

"Jamie." I managed to say in a small voice.

"Welcome to our home Jamie, I would like you to meet my family." Carlisle looked away from me, into the room. I shifted my face to look in the direction he was staring in, surprised to see more golden eyed vampires all sitting in the well decorated foyer. I counted seven pairs of eyes, piercing right through me. I could feel the anxiety building up in my chest again, because neither of them seemed too happy at my entrance.

Carlisle was the first to break the silence, "I reside here with my wife Esme and my children Edward, Bella, Emmett, Rosalie, Jasper and Alice." He spoke slowly, letting me take in the names and the faces of his family members.

I took in the different hair, different bodies, different…just about everything. One thing linked them together. They were all unbearably beautiful. I noticed the ones called Rosalie and Edward were the most beautiful, just a little more then the rest.

One of them rose, and came gracefully to Carlisle's side. It was Esme, I believed. She had a head of wavy caramel locks that shaped around her face. There was a sort of kindness that was held in her delicate features, sort of motherly I suppose.

"It is a pleasure to meet you Jamie," a warm smile touched her lips, making me feel welcomed.

"It's nice to meet you to," my smile grew bigger at her kindness. "I'm so sorry about the intrusion," I noted, my smile fell. Those terrible men…They would hurt these people would they? They couldn't…

"They better not." The one with copper hair spoke…Edward. I looked over at him to see a tiny smirk on his lips.

Wait…Did I say that out loud? I didn't think so. Oh no…maybe I was going insane.

"No, no. I assure you. You're quite sane." He continued smiling. "No they won't hurt us, we've come to…lets say a sort of an agreement."

Ah. Good. I didn't want to see this family get torn apart by those awful bodyguards, or the Volturi. I had to restrain a shudder.

"Yes they are awful aren't they?" He beamed.

Oh no. he couldn't could he? No, no, no…

"Yes, yes, yes," He answered my silent question, still smirking.

No good. The thought of someone hearing my deranged thoughts. No good at all. I hope he's good at ignoring them. I really, really hoped so!

"I'm pretty good at it." He admitted to me. I sighed in relief that was good.

"Let's Hope."

No fair. He was doing this on purpose. You're Terrible. I thought with a smirk of my own.

"That's for starters." His smile turned evil now.

Crap.
