AN: I'm really sorry it took me so long to update, I'll try not to let it happen again, hopefully now that it's summer I'll have more free time to just sit down and write.

Chapter five

CARLISLE'S POINT OF VIEW.

I left Fork's General Hospital in a state of confusion, Jennifer one of the receptionists had been staring at me and smirking most of the day, I had heard her mutter something about grandmothers and flowers once or twice but I and dismissed it as just her usual level of craziness.

As I pulled up into my driveway I had no idea that what I had been waiting for had finally come to pass, I frowned looking at the beautiful Porsche Panamera in the driveway, had someone crashed their car again?

"Hey guys, who bought the new-?" I cut off mid-sentence as I walked into the living room, my whole family was there, which was odd, usually they were dispersed throughout the house, or most of the time not in the house at all. The second thing I noticed was a scent of someone I honestly thought I'd never lay eyes on again, Daithi.

He was standing next to an armchair looking just as beautiful as the last time I'd seem him "Daithi?"

He smirked at me as he sauntered closer "Hello Carlisle, did you miss me?" he asked. Immediately I held out my arms which he wasted no time diving into and hugging me tight, with occasional mumbled sentences in Gaelic.

"Daithi, I thought that you had died" I murmured softly, Daithi pulled back and whacked my shoulder with his fist even though I could tell he didn't actually want to cause damage.

"You idiot Carlisle, I told you that I would be back. Your family has grown a lot since I last saw you, seven new members? Even if one is part dog"

Carlisle and Rosalie laughed at the last comment before Carlisle turned to his family, "Everybody, this is Daithi Quinlan; we met way back in 1928. Where were you Daithi?"

"All over, but mostly southern Europe"

"If Rosalie and Edward were the only coven members you knew, then you obviously haven't met Carlisle's wife Esme" pointed out Bella, I sensed that she did not like Daithi in the slightest.

Daithi whirled pulling out of my arms looking at me with a pained look on his face, I could not see his eyes die to his sunglasses which I concluded where there so my family couldn't see his red eyes, but I guessed if he wasn't wearing them he'd be giving me his wide hurt eyes, causing something in me to clench, I hated seeing him upset.

"Whoa, Daithi! Daithi! I swear that I have been faithful to you" I said quickly before he could attack me or Esme or even worse leave.

When after four seconds he hadn't answered I tugged off one of his gloves and grasped his hand.

By this time I was obvious to my whole family that Daithi and I were more than just good friends, especially upon revealing his ring, which matched mine.

Daithi seemed to be calming down as he watched more and more of my life since he'd left me in London, finally he let go of my hand "I'm sorry I doubted you, my Carlisle"

Daithi kissed my cheek softly, it was then I realised that he was still wearing his sunglasses and gently I reached up to remove them, when I saw his eyes a ripple of shock went through me causing most of my family to tense, "You've been drinking animal blood?"

AN: I know it was a very short chapter but hopefully the next one will at least reach 1000 words.
