DISCLAIMER: STEPHENIE MEYER OWNS THE TWILIGHT SERIES
The Cullen Car Curse – Chapter Eight
BPOV
It had been one week since my transatlantic car search. Today was the day the new car arrived. The entire family had been pleased with my choice. I was extremely excited. The whole family was gathered on the porch waiting for the car to be delivered. We could hear the semi-truck coming from miles away and had meandered out on the porch when we knew it was just a few miles away. The semi rolled to a stop in the long drive, and lowered the door of the cargo trailer. Edward ran in and drove the car out onto the driveway. The Ferrari shined like a sapphire against the white snow. I was opening the door to take my new car for a spin when another semi pulled up. Curious, Edward turned off the engine of the Ferrari and got out to wait with the rest of us.
"It's here, its here!!" Emmett and Jasper zoomed up to the new semi and rolled out in the Maybach Landaulet. Jasper was acting as chauffeur and Emmett had dropped the top on the back and was waving to everyone like a crown prince. I giggled into Edward's shoulder as he shook his head at his brothers' exuberance. I hadn't even noticed Carlisle was gone until the black Maybach Exelero also roared out of the back of the second semi. I walked over to Carlisle, confused.
"That's not for me is it?" I asked.
"No Bella, someone else wanted this one." He smiled and beckoned to Rosalie, who came over to stand beside her father. "I saw the way you admired the Exelero, Rose, and I wanted you to have it."
Rosalie was speechless. She kissed Carlisle on the cheek and slid behind the wheel. She looked at me with a wicked grin.
"Race you to Anchorage?" Rosalie revved the engine.
"You're on!" I rushed back to the Ferrari, jumped in and started it in one fluid motion. Edward leaped in the passenger side, kissed me and then we were off.
FIN
A/N: I must say I was sort of disappointed with the number of votes on my poll. Technically, the Exelero got the most votes, but I had one vote for the Ferrari before the poll was up so it was a tie. Plus, I thought Rosalie would really love the Exelero. She's the most car-savvy of all the Cullens, so a one of a kind car would definitely appeal to her. I wonder if any of these will be Bella's after car in Breaking Dawn. Probably not, but I can hope. I know my choices were a bit extreme, but when you have an eternity to spend your money, why not buy super cool cars? Thanks to everyone who reviewed, especially RosalieandEmmett, Lady Saruman, and Horsecrazy Jr. who all reviewed more than twice! Ya'll rock. I hope you enjoyed my little story and it gave you something fun to read while waiting for Breaking Dawn.
