Chapter 1 Dinner party

Cassie (pov)

Dad pulled in front of a restaurant, which I assumed is where the dinner party would be held. Everyone piled out of the car careful not to ruin their party outfits. Joseph held the door opened so everyone can walk in. Darcy's heels click and clacked against the marbled floor as she mad her way over to me.

"This place seems nice." She said inspecting the concrete walls. I agreeing with her turned to visualize the scene in front of me. The floors marble, the walls stone, classy looking decorations. I was clearly impressed. A light tap was felt on my right shoulder.

"What?" I asked turning to the person in question. I looked down at my 15 year old sister Cameron.

"Can I borrow your lip gloss?" she asked biting on her bottom lips stopping all blood flow. Reaching into my purse I pulled out my lip gloss and handed it to her.

"Thank you." She said applying the product to her slightly chapped lip.

"Your welcome." I said stuffing the lip gloss back into my purse.

"Girls hurry up!" my mom scolded.

Turning on my heel I made my way over to my mom who was greeting people. I spotted Dalia and walked over to her.

"Congratulations." I said giving her a kiss on the cheek while giving her a side hugs.

"Thank you."

I walked over to where Darcy who was standing in the corner.

"Aren't you going to congratulate her?" I asked crossing my arms over my chest.

Darcy looked over to Dalia and rolled her eyes.

"I still don't like her to this day, so what makes you think I want to talk to her." She whispered loudly enough for me to hear.

"If you don't make an effort mom will be very mad at you." I told her.

"Well I could handle mom." She said grabbing my hand and leading me to the table. We took our seats and I made sure Arthemis was seated next to me.

"Okay, I'd like to thank everyone for making an appearance today for a very special purpose. Mom dad I'd like you to meet some friend I've made here in forks." Declan announced.

"Guys this is Carlisle his wife Esme and their kids Alice and Jasper, Rosalie and Emmett, and Edward with his daughter Elizabeth." Declan went on.

My eyes wandered off to the person who Declan announced as Edward, then to his daughter. His daughter was a splitting image of him bronze curls that past her shoulders, bright smile, blue green eyes. She was such an adorable little girl. She reminded me a lot like Arthemis.

I turned to Arthemis who was drinking out of a tall glass.

"Don't spill it." I warned her. She placed the glass back on the table.

"Don't worry mommy I won't." she said turning her attention to across the table. I followed her line of view who was directed at the little girl Elizabeth.

"You want to go say hi to her." I asked. Arthemis looked in thought for a second but then she nodded her head yes.

"Go on." I said helping her out of her chair. She hesitated walking over there.

"Mommy can you come with me?" she asked nibbling on her small finger nails. Getting out of my chair I grabbed Arthemis's hand and led her over to where Edward and Elizabeth were seated. I lightly tapped Edward on his shoulder waiting to get his attention.

He turned around and I flashed him a small smile which he returned.

"Hello, I'm Cassie Claros and this is my daughter Arthemis." I said putting my hand out to shake. I know stupid who gives handshakes any more. Keep it together Cassie you've gone over board, stay in line.

"Hello, I'm Edward Cullen and this is Elizabeth." he answered lightly gripping my hand to shake. I watched as Elizabeth shyly moved behind her father, blocking her face from view.

"Well I'm sorry to bother you but my daughter wanted to come and say hi to Elizabeth, she's to shy to come by herself." Still holding onto Arthemis's hand I pushed her slightly forward towards Elizabeth.

"It's no bother at all go ahead." He stated.

"Don't be shy Arty say hi." I pushed.

Arthemis took her hand out of her mouth.

"Hello." She finally whispered softly. Elizabeth walked out form behind her dad.

"Hello." She replied back.

"How old are you?" Arthemis asked Elizabeth. Holding up five fingers Elizabeth said "five'

"So am I" Arthemis replied happily. Pulling up a seat I sat down watching both girls interact as if they were best friends for years.

"They seem to be hitting it of" Edward commented in my ear. Leaning back in my seat I nodded in agreement.

"So what do you think of forks?" he asked trying to make conversation.

"There's nothing much to think about when you haven't seen anything yet." I said shrugging.

"You haven't seen forks yet?" he stated looking shocked. Shaking my head I said "Nope" popping the p.

"What you need is a tour guide"

"Is that an offer Mr. Cullen" I asked. Nudging my arm "Only if you want me to." He whispered.

"I would love to." I said facing him. A dazzling smile appeared on his face.

"Great, how does Saturday 4pm sound?" he asked holding his blackberry in his hand.

"Perfect."

"What's your number and address?" grabbing his self phone I inserted everything and he did the same for mine.

"So I'll pick you and Arthemis up okay" Edward said putting his cell phone in his pocket. Giving him a kiss on the cheek I stood up from my seat.

"It was nice talking to you….come on Arthemis" I said holding my hand out for her to grab. Smiling to myself we made our way back to our seats.
