Chapter 2:
The Problem
"Alice are you sure she is the one you saw?"
"Yes Carlisle I AM positive!"
"Edward why did you open the door? IF she was one..."
"YES! IF is right! But she's not!"
"How do you know? For all we know she is pretending to be asleep! Did you get a look..."
"No... I didn't"
"WHAT! well why not? Did you think she is going to tell u-"
"Rose, calm down. You might wake her up."
"Not you too! For all we know she got cont-"
"Wait... did anyone even look at her eyes?"
"..."
"Ok... everyone calm down... Edward why didn't you look at her mind?"
"I could... not even read it... it was like a bad reception on a phone... or mist in a forest"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My eyes fluttered open... I expected to be in be forest... half dead and soaking wet, but I was wrong... at least about being in the forest and half dead.
"Uhhh..." I groaned.
When I looked around I was in a spacious living room... and on one of the most comfy couches I had ever sat on.
Wait... oh my god! I can NOT stay... what if they get dragged into this...
My face went pale... well paler then it already was! These people were kind enough to let me stay the night without even knowing who I was... it was be mean... no treacherous to drag them into this. I was then pulled out of my thoughts.
"Well... I'm sure glad you are awake. I was scared that you caught a cold." His voice was softer than velvet... but that would not stop me!
"Yes we all are glad that you are safe Miss..." The next man said with the same voice but different tone, he was the oldest I could tell.
Thats when I realized it... they wanted to know my name! NO... why me why me!
I looked down and said in a whisper, "I am truly sorry... but I cannot say my name. I really should be leaving... it's not safe."
After I said the last line I looked up. And I wished I hadn't! They were all tense and stiff.
Oh no... what if they already know! Maybe they... NO! I could not let anyone else get dragged into this! I was going to be kicked out of this house anyway so I might as well leave...
I stood up and walked to the end of the couch and looked back.
"Listen..." they all looked at me, seven pairs of topaz eyes, "I am really sorry but I cannot tell you my name or else you might get dragged into my mess... if-" I was cut off by a guy... that looked VERY strong.
"Hey first off.. chill! and second of all it's rude to not introduce yourself!"
"But... didn't you just listen to a word I just said? You could get in trouble!"
This time the one I hadn't heard talk yet said something.
"Hey we can handle ourselves! Lets just introduce ourselves then we'll worry about the problem... got it?"
I nodded and sat back down on the couch...
Why do they care? Who are they...? What if I get them in trouble?
"Hi my name is Carlisle, this is my wife Esme, my sons Edward, Emmett, and Jasper. The two ladies are my daughters Alice and Rosalie. What would your name be?"
"My name is Annabelle... and it is my pleasure to meet you all." I really was glad I meet them but... they might not be too glad that they meet me... I sighed.
My stomach growled and I looked down and blushed.
Then the one named Edward stood up stiffly and said, "Carlisle how about I go out and get a pizza?"
"Yes that seems like a great idea, but be careful."
Edward nodded and practically ran out of the house. Then Alice stood up and walked over to me.
"Annabelle-"
"Please just call me Anna"
"Ok Anna... would you like to come to my room and listen to music?"
Her voice was like silver bells and I doubt anyone could refuse.
"Sure I would love that."
"Would you mind if Jasper came too?"
"No not at all... but you don't have too if you don't want too I mean if you are just doing this-"
"Calm down Anna! I would really like to get to know you a lot more!"
I smiled and stood up... or I was more like pulled up by Alice! Jasper just followed behind us. There house was so big I knew that I would get lost if I tried to explore. I was led up two flights of stairs and into a huge, giant... the room was too be to be a room! I just stood there in awe. Then Alice chuckled and sat on her bed with Jasper.
"So Anna what kind of music do you like?" Jasper asked.
"I don't really know... I like a lot of different kinds." I answered truthfully, I honestly had no particular kind of music I liked best.
"Well... then why don't you tell us what years?"
"Ok well... I like the fifties a lot, and the eighties were bearable. The sixties or seventies, ugh!" I made a face at the end.
They both stared at me incredulously. There faces held shocked expressions.
"What? Did I say something wrong?"
"No it's the exact opposite! Thats just like Edward! He has the exact same taste in music!" Alice said.
"Yea the exact same!" Jasper agreed looking at Alice with a strange expression.
All of a sudden Alice and Jasper got up at the exact same time. I looked at them but got up none-the-less. Then I heard it.
"Come on down it's time for lunch: the pizzas here." Carlisle yelled.
Then all of us, Jasper, Alice, and I, went down the stairs. I didn't even remember the stairs, so I was glad that they were leading. When we got down stairs we all piled into the kitchen table -they had to pull up an extra chair for me-. The table was already set so I just waited for the others to sit and then took the last seat. Which to my luck was next to Edward; but there was something different about him... then I noticed it, hie eyes. They were a lighter shade of topaz, before they were a dark shade of topaz. After I sat down I was surprised to see that none of them were eating.
"Aren't you hungry?" I asked.
"No we ate before you woke." Edward said with a musical chuckle.
I didn't think anything about it, and I took a bite of the pizza. It was plain cheese my favorite.
"Oh Edward!" Alice said.
Edward looked at her and raised an eyebrow.
"It seems that someone else shares your taste in music"
"Oh really? Who would that be?"
"Oh none other than our little Annabelle here."
I looked down and blushed, but even tho I was looking down I did not miss Edward looks towards Alice and a nod from them both.

After I was done eating we went to the living room and they started quizzing me again.
"So why were you running in the middle of the storm?" Emmett asked.
"Well its complicated..."
"Try us!" Rosalie said meanly.
I did not look surprised... I had a feeling that she didn't like me.
"Well I sorta got into a fight with my dad..." I trilled off.
"Well that doesn't sound so complicated to me!" She said in that same voice.
"Rosalie why don't you let Anna finish?" Esme said.
She just turned and walked to the other side of the room; Emmett followed.
"Sorry about Anna, why don't you finish?" Edward said, it wasn't a question.
"Well I got into a fight with my dad and... I hit him. It wasn't on purpose tho... I just have some anger problems. And he hit... shit!" I stood up and asked, "I am really sorry about the poor explanation..." Then in a mumble I said, "If I live through this I would love to tell you the rest."
They all stared at me like I was crazy.
"Carlisle do you have a back door?"
He nodded and said,
"Edward show her the way, okay?"
'' Sure follow me."
He got up, since I was already sitting, and walked to the entryway. I followed and right when we were in front of the door there was a knock. I froze and paled.
"Go!" I whispered, "Now!"
Edward started to walk to the faster to the back. While Esme started towards the door. I shouted... which was a BAD Idea!
"NO!!!"
Then before Esme even reached the door... it flung open to reveal...
muwahaha I am sooo evil! Cliffhanger!
Yea I am also proud of myself! 3 days! I WILL get another one out b4 sunday! most likely at night! well that is if I don't get grounded... which really might happen if I don't get my school work done! LMFAO!! That is what I'm supposed to be doing right now... oh well no one cares! I really hoped you like it... yea I know I said it would have more Edward in it but... I lied and I AM sorry about that! The next one SHOULD have more Edward in it and it WILL have more action so... stay tuned! R&R P.SI hope you like my little sayings!
In the end... we're all dead.
