Hey everyone! I can't tell you guys how much I appreciate your reviews! I would like to personally thank The Red Teardrop, you review absolutely made my day! Sooo, here we go with chapter four!

I don't own Twilight.

"Okay Bella, spill." Alice demanded of me. We were currently sitting in the Cullens' living room inside of their amazing house. I was dazzled by the open floor plan. It was so modern inside of a Victorian era style house. It was just...Wow. I had been introduced to both Esme and Carlisle, they were, as I could already tell, very extraordinary people. They hardly knew me, but threw all doubt and suspicion out the window when Emmett introduced me (with great enthusiasm, I might add) as his little sister. When he said little he shot Edward a look and I giggled from slight embarassment. Edward just smirked and shook his head while chuckling.

I leaned into the soft, snow-white couch and began my story. I started from Emmett's disappearance, then the club and Daniel. I heard Emmett and Edward growl almost inaudiably when I spoke of Daniel kissing me, then changing me. I completely understood why Emmett growled. Protectiveness of his little sister. But, why did Edward? I knew that I was attracted to him, even though I've known him for just a few hours, I felt as if he could potentially be my mate. Though his feelings for me were a mystery. I knew I could use his power against him, but I was against invading others' privacy. Respect was a big thing for me.

"-and then I decided to move here, to Forks. I knew that we," I gestured to Emmett and I, "had visited here when I was thirteen. I remembered the weather and figured this would be the perfect place. The funny thing is, before I met the rest of your family," I looked at Alice, "I was going to ask you guys whether any of you had heard of Emmett. If you knew him at all, seen his face in a crowd somewhere, anything. I've always been prepared to move at a moment's notice if I found any information about where he could've been. I just can't believe I'm here right now with him and all of you. The fact that were both vampires just blows my mind." I said with happiness.

"That's what she said..." Emmett said jokingly. I rolled my eyes and elbowed him slightly in the ribs. "Whoa, little sis, just because your a vamp now doesn't mean your stronger than me." he said with a laugh. I laughed lightly in return along with the rest of the family.

I was basking in this atmosphere; I loved it. I'd never had a family, a real family, since I'd been turned. I felt like I belonged here.

Everyone was looking at me. "What?" I looked around at their faces.

Esme was the one to speak, "You and Emmett resemble each other. Curly, dark hair, straight noses, wide eyes, full lips. Even if you had just showed up as a nomad, asking for permission to hunt, I would ask if you were related. Its obvious if you actually look."

I smiled, she was so sweet, definitely the motherly type. "When we were human, we shared the same mother with different fathers. I had chocolate brown eyes and Emmett had light blue eyes. People always said if I had been born a year or so after Emmett, we would look like twins with different colored eyes.

I turned to Emmett. "So what actually happened when you disappeared. It was my fifteenth birthday. I wanted you there so badly to celebrate before you left for college. But, you never came. What happened?" I could feel strong, sad emotions take over my mind, and I fought to hold them back. I couldn't physically cry, but if I could, I would be at this moment. I felt a strong wave of calm fall over me, allowing me to catch my breath. My eyes found Jasper's and I smiled gratefully.

Emmett looked like he could cry as well. " Early that morning, before you woke up I went up to the bluffs looking for those special flowers you loved, Blue Lupine. I know its really corny and stuff, but, we'd spent all summer looking for it, and never found it. So I was determined to get you some before they went out of season. I didn't tell mom or dad, or anybody. I wanted it to be a complete surprise. It was more of a surprise for me than it was for you. I ran into a black bear that morning. I tried to scare him off, but he ended up attacking me." he said distantly, obviously taken back to the memory. I breathed deeply, taking everything in. "While he was mauling me, Rosalie showed up. I thought I was seeing an angel. She was so beautiful. She killed the bear and brought me back to Carlisle and he changed me. I was so scared of what you, mom, and dad would think, so I didn't come back. Besides I fell in love with Rosalie and I didn't want to leave her, ever." Rosalie smiled lovingly at her and they kissed lightly. I was so happy for him.

It was so sweet that he was looking for Blue Lupine. It was my favorite flower, though it was rare in Arizona, we had searched and searched. I wanted to find it so badly.

Rosalie stood and eveloped me in a hug. "It's great to meet my sister-in-law." she whispered. I knew this behavior was not normal for her by the shocked expressions on everyone's faces. I returned the hug and said, "It is." and it was. Rosalie and I went outside on the porch and talked. She told me about her and Emmett's many weddings. The way her eyes lit up when she spoke about him proved that she truly loved him. I sighed. I wanted something like they had. Someone to love me, to spend forever with me. My thoughts roamed to Edward. I could hear him playing softly on his piano. It was so beautiful. My grandmother played piano. My dad's mom. She was wonderful at it. She always told me 'If someone's soul was pure, music wo"ld flow freely'. Edward must have a very pure soul if he can play that well.

I was brought out of my thoughts when Rosalie got up out of her chair and sighed. "I can hear Emmett fidgeting. I think he's nervous about our knowing each other. I'll admit, when you showed up at school, I didn't know what to think. You're very beautiful, Bella. I was just a little jealous, and I haven't felt that way before. And when Emmett hugged you. I was instantly furious. I didn't know who you were. I mean, you can't just walk in and immediatly steal my Emmett. Especially when none of us knew who you were. But, when he introduced you as his sister, I was speechless, intrigued, happy, and nervous. I'm sure Jasper was going through whiplash with everything we were all feeling. Now that we've talked, I really do like you. I know everyone in my family exept Emmett, thinks I'm heartless." she smiled softly.

"I don't think you're heartless, Rosalie." I said honestly.

"Thank you, Bella." she laughed lightly, "I just have a hard time trusting people and expressing feelings. Its left over from my human life. I'll tell you the story sometime. It was very theatrical." I saw her smirk at a joke I didn't understand. "Well, I better get inside and assure Emmett."

"Okay," I smiled.

I was outside by myself for about seven minutes, just thinking, until Alice opened the door and poked her head outside. "Bella! Come with me. I have something to show you!" I followed her inside and up the stairs into her bedroom. She opened her closet door and I had to hold in the gasp that threatened to escape. Her closet was just as big as her bedroom (which was already large itself). It was filled to the brim with clothes, shoes, purses, and all different accessories. There was so much and it was all organized nicely. She pulled me inside of it, and I felt my face go into a grimace as I cringed.

"Alice, why'd you bring me in here?" I asked nervously. "I want to take you shopping, and I want you to show me things you like of mine so I have some idea of what to get you in advance." she stated. Ugh. Clothes shopping. "Um...Alice, clothes aren't really my thing." I mumbled. Hurt instantly crossed her features. I felt guilty. I had to make up for it. "Okay, I will pick out three things. That's it. We can go shopping but only for a few hours. I don't want to spend all day at the mall." I quickly sighed. What had I gotten myself into? Happiness was radiating off her now. I was happy that she was happy now.

I went downstairs and sat in the now empty living room. Edward came and sat on the couch beside me and turned on the television. "What shows do you like?" his velvet voice broke the silence. Butterflies rose in my stomach.

"Hmm. I like MTV. Its amusing how some of those people can be so stupid sometimes. But, I also like the History and Discovery channels. Some of the documentaries are really interesting." I said, feeling a little dumb at how nerdy I sounded. I didn't watch t.v. that much, but when I do, I really do watch mainly those channels.

"Me, too. I like watching House, as well. I have a medical degree and its like I'm trying to figure out what's wrong with the patient some times, too." he smiled down at me. I was dazzled, it's official, by a man.

I went home around 4:30 a.m. We had spent all night just talking. I caught Edward staring at me more than just a few times. I smiled inwardly. I hope he likes me. I talked him into giving me lessons on his beautiful baby grand piano. He seemed more than happy to teach me.

I gave them my address, telling them to come over anytime, and that I would see them at school tomorrow. I'm sure I was glowing when I finally sat on my own bed and reviewed the day. I couldn't wait for school, not just to see my brother, but I found myself anticipating seeing Edward as well.

There it was! Now, review everybody! I want at least seven or eight before my next update!

Love you all,
