So the full summary wouldn't fit; so here's the full one: Edward Cullen has been wandering the world for over a millennium, with his coven of vampires. Edward has a secret though-he's the creator of all vampires. He's cold, ruthless, and nobody can stop him. Until he stumbles upon a little human girl with brown hair and chocolate colored eyes. With one look into her eyes, she has him wrapped around her tiny finger, and he knows why-she is his mate.
Chapter Three: A Family Affair
After showing Bella her room, we showed her the rest of the house. I was thankful that Alice had the foresight to place Bella's room right next to mine, with a door connecting the two rooms. As we showed Bella the house, my hand was permanently attached to hers, and I refused to leave her side. Even after Jasper called my name from three floors above us, asking to talk. Though I knew I needed to warn him, threaten him if it came to it; I didn't want to leave Bella. I would talk to him tonight.
Though that thought nearly brought me to my knees. How could I leave her on her first night here? What if something happened to her? After all she was defenseless in her sleep. After that thought, my insides turned to ice, it was an unfamiliar feeling; a feeling that I didn't like. I made a split second decision that I wouldn't leave her. Not tonight, not ever. If Jasper wanted to talk I would talk into his mind.
Esme walked up to me while Bella was engrossed in Emmett's picture books that he had lying around the house, for fun he claims. "Edward, what are we going to do about her schooling? She needs to learn."
I agreed with her, however the thought of her being in a school building away from me left me feeling empty. Plus, didn't Esme realize how dangerous schools could be? It seems like ever night, on the news there was something about a school shoot out, or a kid being bullied, or even a kid getting beat up. That was not going to happen to my Bella. Then I thought of a brilliant plan, "Home schooling. Esme you can teach her about the home, family, and manners. Carlisle can teach her math and science. Jasper can tell me history, and I'll teach it to Bella, at least the civil war part he can teach me. Rosalie can teach my Bella, English. Alice can teach her Italian and Spanish. It's never too early to start, and later, when she's older, we'll add German to the list. Emmett can teach her…physical education." I didn't add that I would be by her side through all of this. It was a given.
Esme smiled, "It will become a family affair."
"Everyone will become involved. That way it'll give my Bella, a somewhat normal education, with everyone teaching her. Esme do you mind running to the grocery store to pick up some healthy food. No raspberries, because Bella's allergic, and no sweets, no chocolate, and no gum."
Esme looked surprised, "Yes, Edward, I can do that. Oh! I can finally put all my cooking courses, and recipe books to use!" Esme fled the room with a quick goodbye tossed in my direction.
"Edward, what's this?" my Bella asked, coming towards me holding a…a Playboy Magazine! Who? Emmett! I snatched it out of her hands, quickly. Hopefully she hadn't taken a look inside.
"Where did you get that?" I demanded.
"It was in the book," she pointed to a new picture book she had grabbed while I was distracted, talking to Esme. I would have to pay more attention; I don't want her little innocent mind to see this. I would have to have a good long talk with Emmett later.
"This is a magazine for big people only," I said. To low for my angel to hear I hissed, "Emmett!"
Emmett appeared in the doorway, "You rang?" He jokes. I'm furious with him, and he jokes.
I was in no mood for games, "What is this?" I thrust the magazine at him.
"Emmett paled, well paler than usual, "…Where did you get that?"
I grabbed him by the throat, and hoisted him against the wall. Though Emmett was bigger than I was, I was older, wiser, and a I was the creator of the Vampire Race. I was angry, "Don't question me Emmett McCarty. I found this foul magazine in the hands of my precious little angel. Do you know, how horrifying this could be for her?" Suddenly I felt two small arms wrap them around my legs. Since my first instinct wasn't to shake her off, I knew it had to be my Bella. I glanced down, and sure enough there she was with tears running down her face. Horrified I let go of Emmett, and dropped to my knees.
"What's wrong my Bella?" I cooed, pulling her into a hug.
Between sobbing breaths, she said, "I…am…sorry! I didn't…want…to…get…Emmett…into…trouble!" My heart broke for my little angel. So selfless, not caring whether she would get into trouble.
"Oh, my Bella, I wasn't angry at Emmett. I was showing him brotherly love," the words nearly killed me, because I wanted to tear apart him.
"P-p-promise?" she stuttered.
"I promise, now come on I think Esme has your lunch downstairs. Are you hungry?" She wiped the tears from her eyes, and nodded. I just heard Esme get back, she was calling my name, and saying that she went out to subway and got food for Bella. Subway was good, because Esme knew just what to put on the sandwich to make it healthy. I could also smell baked chips, which are healthier than the regular kind.
"Let's go eat my angel," I picked her up and with one final glare in Emmett's direction we walked out to the kitchen.
