For those of you who are wondering where Edward and Jasper are, they will appear in 2-3 chapters but let me know if you want EPOVs in the story, I'll put up a poll if you want to vote over the next couple of days, anyway enough chat on with the story
I felt myself been shaken awake as we taxied down San Jose international airport, I looked over at Alice who was beaming. She may not have shown it or said it but you could really tell that she misses her family with living so far away from them. It was understandable really there all so friendly and welcoming I had missed them myself and although it wasn't going to be difficult not seeing Charlie over thanksgiving it would be nice to see them.
We stiffly walked off the plane after the announcement from the captain who thanked us for flying with the airline, I was really looking forward to the day that we could afford to fly first class seen as though I could no longer feel my feet, and headed for the luggage claim.
"Emmet says he's going to meet us outside, saves us walking in circles trying to find each other" squealed Alice as the last of out suitcases reached us.
"It's going to be so nice to see everyone and have a few days break from the rush of med school" I sighed
"You never know you might even find time to get a bit of holiday fun" winked Alice as we stepped out into the warm Californian sun
"come on you know that I m not the kind of person who has flings or fumbles and I defiantly don't have time for a normal relationship never mind a long distance one." I said grinning as Emmet's massive form came into view
Alice, having noticed him, dropped her bags and went charging too him, I smiled and rolled my eyes knowing I couldn't complain with how close they are. He ruffled her hair as they walked back over to me seen as though I couldn't manage all the bags myself.
After the usual greetings the car was loaded and we set off to Alices parents seeing as though they had a big enough house to accommodate everyone.
"What's Rosalie like then?" I found myself asking from the backseat of the car. The big mushy smile on Emmet's face said it all.
"she's great, she might seem a little stone faced when you first meet her but she'll soon warm up to you, she can also seem a bit bossy but I like that she's able to keep me in line" he laughed
I wasn't sure what to make of that, I mean he seemed more than happy with her but I was just hoping I wasn't spending the weekend with some stuck-up cow; I think I'll wait to meet her to judge her though.
"What's the plan for the weekend?" Alice asked Emmet
"Well obviously its thanksgiving tomorrow so the usual family meal, Roses parents are flying over the day after and were all going out for a meal and drinks together other than that were free to do what we want."
We spent the rest of the journey making idle chat about work, med school and generally catching up. We pulled up on the Cullen's driveway and as usual Alice's parents were on the doorstep to meet us alongside the latest addition of Rosalie.
Myself and Alice charged out of the car and ran to say hi to her parents, equally as happy to see them, whilst Emmet unloaded the car. Once the mandatory hugs were over we turned to Rosalie, I just smiled whilst Alice introduced us. I still wasn't sure what to make of her, she didnt seem to have much to say, but that could just be nerves but she didn't seem horrible either.
We followed Emmet as he took our bags to our respective rooms; Rosalie just stayed downstairs causing me and Alice to give each other a confused and worried glance. Emmet told us that we had enough time to unpack and freshen up before dinner. I unpacked of the essentials leaving what I could in my bag seen as though we are only here for a short weekend I don't seem the point of unpacking everything just to repack it a short time later. I'd just flopped down onto my bed and there was a soft knock at the door, strange I thought, Alice and Emmet aren't known for been quiet.
"Come in" I called out
I was pretty surprised to see Rosalie walk through the door, feeling slightly envious of how she looked like a model in jeans and t-shirt.
"hi Bella, sorry I didnt say much earlier, I'm not very good with meeting new people but I'm sure yourself and Alice are very nice people from what I've heard. Anyway I was just letting you know dinners ready and that Em wants the four of us to have a movie marathon tonight if you're up for it?" she smiled
"Sure that would be good, is there a film or just picking whatever films we want?"
"No theme but we was thinking just one film each tonight as we have to be up early in the morning to help prepare dinner. I better go let Alice know that dinners ready" and with a smile she was gone.
Walking downstairs I was wondering how a girl like Rosalie couldn't be good with meeting now people, she must have had one hell of a shock when she first met Emmet.
Reaching the dining room I saw that dinner was already served up and everyone was sat around the table waiting for me; how Alice and Rosalie got down here before me I'll never know, clearly I must have been walking slower that I thought.
As we sat and ate me and Alice was asking what her parents had been doing since the last family gathering, even though we spoke on the phone it was a lot different in person. We then set about getting to know Rosalie more; we discovered she much prefers the name Rose as it's a lot quicker to say, she's a mechanic and despite her looks she's only had two boyfriends including Emmet.
We cleared away after dinner because the parents had cooked then we set about choosing which films to watch. I chose the Goonies, Alice chose enchanted, to which we all rolled our eyes; Emmet chose Pirate of the Caribbean and Rose chose Beverly hill cops.
We got situated in the TV room with the popcorn and drinks and watched the films one after the other making idle chat during the boring bits. Four films and 9 hours later it was time for bed; Rose gave me and Alice a hug and said a quick goodnight then headed upstairs. When she was out of sight Emmet quietly said to us both
"So what do you think of her?"
Alice smiled and simply said that she thinks the three of us will become great friends.
I said "I wasn't sure what to make of her at first with her been so quiet but she's got a lot more talkative as the nights gone on and she's gotten to know us. I genuinely like her!" and I really meant it.
Emmet grinned at us said goodnight and went to join Rose; not without ruffling our hair first.
Me and Alice made our way upstairs together talking quietly about the day before bidding each other goodnight and going to our bedrooms.
Maybe this would be a good holiday with Rose after all.
