I own nothing Twilight.
I'm back! Did you miss me?
Because I missed you guys.
I'm getting pretty pissed. Everytime, I come on here to put some of this chit-chat onto one of my chapters it doesn't work.
So I'll probably get taken down for copyright anytime soon. That won't be fun.
Just a warning if any chapters go missing then I suppose it's because I've had to come back to add this little bit in.
Oh! I've also discovered that I can read on my phone. So I was contented when the internet went down at my nana's.
Much love, Lucy-Jane xo
"Here they are!" Michelle chimed getting up from her seat and making her way to open the door. Suddenly I was nervous, I didn't usually get nervous about this kind of thing and that just added to it. I took a deep breath, itching for a cigarette. "Scared that they won't want you?" Edward slyly whispered.
"No. I just want a fag." I said, elbowing him in the ribs.
"Ouch!" He complained rubbing his side.
"I'm sure you'll be fine with the kids. They are both polite and well mannered." We heard Michelle's voice sounding down the hall with some footsteps that didn't belong to her. We suddenly stopped prating around and sat up straight.
The door to the office opened and 3 strangers entered with Michelle who took her seat in the arm chair. She gestured for the strangers to do the same and they did. One of the strangers was tall and blonde with sea blue eyes he was dressed in what looked like very smart, expensive clothes. The second was shorter and had long caramel coloured curls; she had large brown eyes that were friendly. Her clothes looked equally as expensive. The third was much younger than the first two. He was tall and fairly slim. His hair was blonde and messy and his eyes the same shade of blue as who I guessed were his dad.
"Bella, Edward. This is Dr and Mrs Cullen and their son Jasper. He is one of the twins I was telling you about." I smiled and went to stick my hand out to shake but the stupid boy next to me beat me to it. I growled under my breath. "Hello." I said smiling as Edward shook their hands. Jasper smiled and nodded to me. "It's such..." I began being interrupted by Edward, again.
"It's such a pleasure to meet you." He smiled again. And I shot him daggers that were meant to be discreet.
"I sense tension between you two." Jasper said trying to fight back a laugh.
"Tension isn't the word." I mumbled. The group laughed and the conversation began flowing easily enough. The Dr's name was Carlisle and the woman's Esme. Esme was a keen interior designer. Their three other children were called Emmett, Rosalie and Alice. Edward and Carlisle discussed books and interests. Jasper and I talked about music tastes and other interests. I ignored Edward and continued making the group laugh, stealing his spot-light. Coffee and cakes were offered and of course I refused. Edward turned to face me "Go on, have one. Anorexic Annie." He gave me the same smug smile he had in the bedroom and I recoiled like I'd been slapped around the face.
"Excuse me." I whispered almost silently fighting back my tears. Nobody ever dared to use the A word around me, it stung almost as much as the F word. I slumped to the floor and cried. How dare he say it. Especially to people that had never met me before. He'd said plenty of mean things to me and none of them had ever bothered me... but he said the A word.
In truth, I knew I was sick but I didn't care. I was going to be beautiful and Edward wasn't going to stop me. I got up off the floor and went to the bathroom. I peered in the mirror and noticed that the waterproof make up I'd bought for rainy Forks had served me well. "I'm not going to let him win." I growled to myself and left for the office. "Welcome back." Michelle smiled she mouthed an "Are you okay?" at me and I nodded so slightly back. Another half an hour of conversation and me pinching Edward's spotlight passed and we were asked to leave as the Cullen's discussed things with Michelle and went through some paperwork.
The meeting had gone well apart from the slight tear in the fabric from Edward. The Cullen's seemed like genuinely nice people and I wouldn't mind being part of their family. I went to kitchen and took out one of my bottles of water. I went up to the room and grabbed my purse and set out for a walk. I passed the coffee shop and peered inside. I'd noticed Jasper and he noticed me back. He smiled and waved and gestured for me to come inside. He was with what looked like the rest of the family. I gestured one second at him and moved out of view from the window, stumping out my cigarette and squirting myself with perfume. I swallowed the nerves that had picked up and went to join my future family.
