And Bella realized that she only likes Edward as a friend. For now. I'm going to write fluff after this, so give me ideas on who should have some Bella bonding time!

Bella POV

I stifled a yawn as I woke up into my bedroom. I hadn't heard what happened last night, so I'll have to ask Edward or Carlisle about that. I could ask the others, but I'm not quite that comfortable with them as I am with Edward and Carlisle yet. Sure, they seemed nice, but Edward was the one who found me, and Carlisle fixed me up.

I opened my eyes and was greeted by Edward's beautiful face. "Hi, Edward." I greeted him. "I'll be back in a few minutes. Just go back downstairs. You can come up when I call." My voice grew more quiet with each word, so that the last was almost inaudible.

He smiled. "Okay." He left and I went to the bathroom down the hall. After a shower, I noticed that there was an orange toothbrush on the sink. It had a note on it. The note said 'to Bella' in a lovely script. Much better than my clumsy scrawl.

I brushed my teeth and washed my face. After that, I headed back to the room. I quickly pulled a green sundress over myself. It was the only thing that wouldn't irritate my cuts and bruises. "Okay." I called.

In moments, Edward was relaxing in a desk chair. His velvety voice rolled smoothly over his words. "Hello, Bella. How are you today?"

"I'm fine. Still a bit tired, but okay." I studied his face intently. I was sure I had seen it somewhere before. On the street? No. In a movie? No. One of the people to visit Ms. Shelly? Absolute not. Then where… I got it! I took in a quick breath of air.

Edward looked anxious. "Bella? Are you okay? What's wrong?" He rushed over to me.

"Nothing. Stay still." I got up and went over to my duffel. I got out my favorite book, the one that doubles as a sketch book. I flipped to the correct page and pointed to a picture I started about three weeks ago.

Edward's jaw dropped and I smirked. "When did you draw this Bella? It's really good."

I blushed. "About three weeks ago. The first day at the orphanage. It's what I always imagined my guardian angel would look like this." I was sure I resembled a tomato when I finished. How ironic is it that my picture was a copy of a vampire? My guardian vampire. Edward is my guardian vampire.

"Wow, Bella. That's…amazing."

"Yeah. I guess you're my guardian vampire." I smiled at him and he smiled a wonderful crooked smile.

"Bella?"

"Yes, Edward?"

"Do you want to come show the others this picture? They'll all love it."

"Yeah, sure." We walked down to the living room. He had my hand and I had the book. Everybody turned toward us as we descended.

"Hello, Bella. Hello, Edward." Esme greeted us warmly.

"Hello." we murmured in unison. They all smiled at us.

"Bella. May I?" Edward asked, holding his hand out for the book. I blushed and handed it to him. "Everybody, Bella drew this before she met any of us." He held out the book for everyone to see. After a thorough examination, they all turned to my. I blushed deeper.

"Wait!" I exclaimed. "There's more." I took the book and flipped more pages. I came across some I drew while at the orphanage. It was a band of four 'angels.' They looked like Rosalie, Alice, Esme, and of course, my own guardian angel, Edward. The next page held Jasper, Carlisle, Emmett, only smaller, and Edward again. "I didn't even know you guys. I just thought that I had angels looking over me, and so I drew them." I looked down.

"Bella." Esme comforted. "They're lovely. Thank you for letting us be angels."

"I didn't even know it was you. I just drew what I saw in dreams."

Rosalie caught me in a tight hug. "Thank you, Bella. I'm so glad you get to stay." My eyes lit up.

"I get to stay?" I asked hopefully.

Edward chuckled. "Yes, Bella. You get to stay."

"Thank you all so much!" I cried, hugging Rosalie tighter. "Can I give you all nicknames?"

The chuckled, but nodded. "Don't worry." I assured them. "Nothing too bad." I grinned. "So, let's see. We have Carry, Ezzie, Rosie, Emmy, Jazzy, Allie, and Edwie!"

They all looked at me. Edward raised an eyebrow. "Edwie?"

I grinned larger. "Yes. In my dreams, you always hated being called 'Eddie' so I put in a 'w.' It makes Edwie. Or we can drop the 'ie's and have Car, Ez, Rose, Em, Jazz, and Al."

"What about Ed?" Edward asked.

"Nope, sorry. You stay Edwie no matter what." I told him. He frowned and the others laughed.

"I prefer 'Emmett the Great Master of Grizzlies'" Emmett said.

"No. Em or Emmy. Your choice." I tried to be intimidating.

"Whatever." And with that he walked off into the garage.

I smiled. "Edwie, which annoys him more?" He frowned at his nickname while his family was holding back giggles.

"Emmy." he answered.

"Emmy it is."

"Hmm.." Edward pondered. "Then you'll be Belly." he said. A grin stretched across his face. He scooped me up and tickled my stomach.

"Ahh!!" I giggled. "Stop it!" I looked into the smiling faces of this family. My new family. That sounded nice.

Did you like it? Don't forget to tell me who should fluff it up with Bella!
