Ok, ok I know that I said that chapter 4 was going to be the last one but SplashofSilverInk insisted that I write one more and I am easily persuaded. But this really will be the last chapter because I want to get on with writing my next story. So SplashofSilverInk this is for you…
I giggled to myself. In exactly two minutes thirty-five seconds Edward and Emmett would be here. Even though I had seen what reaction we would get from the others it was still nice to have actually done it and know that we were accepted. Even Rosalie seemed reasonably happy to meet us although I guessed that she didn't really care as long as our presence didn't upset her lifestyle.
The room was perfect. I was already picturing what I would do with it. I hadn't foreseen choosing Edward's room because I had only decided on having it when I saw it. Beforehand I had always intended just to take a spare room. I didn't want to cause my new family any trouble but Esme was so obliging and insisted we have it once she saw how much I liked it.
Jasper was happy too I could tell. He was relieved that it had gone so well and that the Cullens were so happy to make us a part of their family. At this moment he was deep in conversation with Carlisle about the events that led us here. They would get on well I could tell.
"I can't wait to see Edward's reaction when he sees all his stuff in the garage," Rosalie said in a smug voice coming up softly entering the room. Esme looked up from where she was repositioning a rug on the floor.
"Don't be silly, Rose." She scolded gently "Edward won't mind. Don't worry Alice, darling I know you'll get along."
I grinned, "I know," I declared happily "I've already seen what he'll do. Sorry, Rosalie, but he does take it quite well."
Rosalie looked a little disgruntled for a minute that I had foreseen this. But then she just shrugged it off and glanced at her reflection in the window, checking that her beautiful scowl was in place. I think I can see a mannerism occurring here.
I turned around and looked out of the window too. Five, four, three, two, one…
"They're here!" I trilled before wheeling around and flying downstairs. I grabbed Jazz's hand and raced out the front door as I simultaneously heard and exasperated sigh coming from my true love behind me. Jasper pulled up short before I reached the garage. I twisted to look up into his face, his expression was guarded, no doubt he was reading the emotions coming from our two new brothers.
I rolled my eyes, "Well, they were bound to be surprised." I told him but I waited where I was for the brothers. I had to humour Jasper, eventually he would outgrow seeing everyone as a potential enemy and then he'll outgrow being so ridiculously overprotective. Or at least I thought he would.
I heard the car doors open and be slammed shut. "What the hell…" That was Emmett; taking in all Edward's newly moved possessions. Ha ha, I thought, just as I saw-
There was a momentary pause and then Edward came charging out towards me with a look of high excitement on his face. Jasper took half a step forwards, semi blocking me from Edward's view. Edward stopped a few feet in front of us, still looking excited.
"I'm sorry," he said, looking at Jasper sincerely, "I wasn't going to attack her I was just so surprised by what I heard, you see I'm a-"
"I mind reader, I know" Jasper finished for him, still looking a bit annoyed at Edward.
I danced around Jasper to stand in front of Edward and beamed up at him. "Go on, ask me." I said knowing what it was that had excited him so much.
"Did you mean that you foresaw this?" he asked, "You have an ability too?"
I just grinned in response. Edward's head then snapped up to look at Jasper.
"And you do too. Wow! This is brilliant!" I giggled at him. I liked him even more than I had expected to.
Then I turned and danced over to Emmett who was looking completely lost. I held out my hand to him.
"Hi, I'm Alice and that's Jasper. We've just joined your family." I said by way of introduction. His eyes flickered over Jasper and me as he shook my hand. A slow smile spread across his face as he did. He responded with just one word:
"Excellent!"
And then he bounded over to pull a startled looking Jasper into a man-hug. "Great to meet you, brother" he exclaimed exuberantly. I glanced over at the other three who had followed us outside just in time to see Rosalie roll her eyes.
"And now will someone tell me why Edward seems to have been evicted," Emmett demanded looking around at all of us. I couldn't suppress another giggle as I thought about that. Edward turned to look at me incredulously,
"You moved all my stuff from my room just because you liked the view?" he cried. I burst out laughing and ran to pretend hide behind Jasper. The others were laughing too, even Jasper had finally relaxed and was enjoying himself. Everyone was happy.
The End
(And yes that definitely is the end this time!) Don't forget to review :-)
