Okay, so chapters may be coming up a little slow now… My mom found my stories and I'm just really embarrassed that she read them…

So, what did everyone think of the last chapter? Just so you know, sometimes my updates will be fast, and sometimes they will be slow. I write my story when I feel like it, or when I'm bored, or when I'm waiting… the point is, I write when I want to. Just thought I'd let you all know that. XD

Oh, yeah, by the way, I changed my mind. Instead of this being Monday in the story, it's now Friday… you'll find out why later on in the chappie.

Previously:

"Well, you should be." And with that, he began to walk away, out of the woods, leaving me alone.

I just stood there for a moment. I didn't want to move. I had just confronted him about his being a vampire for crying out loud and all her could say was 'well you should be?'

But what did I expect him to say? 'Well now that you've figured out my secret, lets be boyfriend and girlfriend?' I didn't know. Not like he was really going to say that anyways.

After a while I began to walk back to my truck. No one was in the parking lot, I realized. My truck, along with Rose and Jasper, weren't there either. I was left alone yet again.

It was dark, too.

I just stood in the parking space where my truck had once been, as if waiting for it to fall back to the ground and take me home. I don't know, I was just being crazy today.

I saw some headlights then. I turned to glare at whoever the headlight belonged to but stopped dead in my tracks when I saw a yellow Porsche. It was Alice, -bless her, - coming to my rescue.

She rolled down her window when she pulled up to me. "Hey," she called. She didn't smile.

"Hey. Thanks," I said after I walked up to her open window.

"For what?" Still no smile.

"For being a good friend," I replied as I went to hop into the passenger's side of the car.

She started speeding down the road as soon as I was in. But she was going the wrong way to my house.

"Alice, where are we going?" I asked her, a bit confused.

"To my house, silly. I already brought it up with your parents. They absolutely love the idea. You stuff is in the trunk.

"And besides," she continued, turning to face me and pulling her sunglasses lower so she could see my eyes and I could see hers. "We have something we all need to discuss." She was serious. I had never seen her that way, and I had to admit, it was kind of scary.

She pulled into her front driveway then, and got out. I followed her example. She went to the back of the Porsche yanked out my luggage, and handed it to me. All without a word to me. She pulled out an expensive-looking silver cell phone, put it up to her ear and said two words into the receiver. "We're home."

She walked up to the front door, and opened it wide enough so that we could both go in. After I was in she closed the door, and I turned to face the room. It was absolutely huge. Everything was white; except for the big grand black piano in the middle of the room. It was extravagant. There was even a grand staircase. It was white as well.

"Sit down, Bella," Alice ordered, pointing to the white couch against the wall. "I have to go get someone." I behaved, and went to go sit.

Emmett came down first. "Hi, Bella," he said and went to sit next to me on the couch.

A man and woman whom I considered to be Dr. and Mrs. Cullen came down next.

"Hello, Bella. I'm Esme, it's really a pleasure meet you finally," the woman said, hugging me.

"Likewise," I told her when she let go.

"Hi, Bella. I'm Carlisle. Alice has told me so much about you," the man told me, shaking my hand. I smiled at him.

Edward and Alice came down the grand staircase last.

"Well, Bella. Apparently you know," Carlisle said to me when they reached us.

"Apparently I know what?"

"About our little secret," Emmett answered, slapping me on the back. And I must say it really hurt.

"Right. Exactly what Emmett said, Bella. You now know our secret. And the rule states that now we have to either kill you, or-"

"Or turn you into one," Alice finished for Carlisle.

"Right, but, Bella, we like you, so we are asking you not to tell anyone that you know about us being vampires."

"That way you can live, and we keep our secret safe," Emmet finished. I liked that option. I didn't want to die, so I agreed to their deal.

"Your secret is safe with me," I said weakly. The all relaxed then. Apparently they didn't want me to die either. That definitely made me feel better about the whole situation.

"Alright then. Bella, come on," Alice said, grabbing my hand and leading me up the stairs, and to her room, which was the first door on the second floor. "Okay, I'm going to be right back, I have to get something," she said, and walked away to the bathroom. I could swear I heard her giggle or something on her way. I shook that off quickly.

I shrugged and just stood there in the hall, where Alice had left me. Ten minutes passed by slowly and I finally had enough. I began to walk around a bit, being a little nosy. I looked around in each of the rooms, recognizing what had to be Emmett's and Alice's, but I couldn't find Edward's room anywhere. I don't even know why I was looking in the first place, though.

Finally, I found a room at the end of the hall on the third floor. –Yes, they had a third floor. - I slowly opened the door and peeked inside. The first thing I noticed was the wall of CD's that were all nice and perfectly in order. Then I noticed the black leather sofa, and the window/wall.

Then I noticed who just happened to be sitting on the black leather couch. Edward. He was listening to an iPod, but when he heard his door open, he looked up, and met my eyes.

"Oh!" I gasped and stumbled back. Using what I could only imagine was vampire speed or something Edward was there, saving clumsy me from falling back wards.

"Whoa, careful there," he told me while putting me back on my feet. I couldn't help but notice the electric charge that radiated from his body when he held me.

"Thank you," I whispered. He just smiled a crooked smile, still holding me close.

I don't know how long we stood like that, but it must have been a while, because the next thing I knew someone was clearing their throat behind us.

"Ah-hem." I turned around when Edward released me from his gaze, and met Alice's penetrating stare at our now awkward position.

"I'm going to borrow Bella for a moment, Edward, if you don't mind," she told her brother before grabbing me and pulling me down the stairs and into her room. When we were safely in the confines of her bedroom she locked the door behind us and turned to face me, her arms crossed.

"Spill."

"Spill what?" I asked, faking surprise by her demand.

"You know what," she teased.

I let out an exasperated sigh. "I tripped, and he saved me."

She smirked. "Well, if you don't mind me saying that he was holding you a bit close for just saving you."

I scoffed. "What ever." And I waved a hand in the air dismissively.

She smirked again, and I glared at her. "Nothing. Was. Happening."

"Yeah, uh-huh, but Bella, that doesn't mean something wasn't going to happen if I didn't interrupt."

"Then why did you!?"

She smirked yet again. "Because I wanted to."

I sighed again and rolled back onto the couch. "Just for the record, Alice, you are most definitely not my favorite person right now," I told her.

"Yep, I know!" she said in her chipper voice. "And that's because Edward is." She looked at me with a knowing smile.

I groaned. "I think you're right, Alice."

"No, Bella, you know I'm right."

Damn, why did she always have to be right? He was my favorite person, wasn't he? Well, all I really know is that that moment in the hallway outside his door… All I know is that I never wanted that moment to end. And it did, sadly. But I knew I was going to find a way to make that happen again…

"Nuh-uh-uh, Bella. Get those thoughts out of your head," Alice said, wagging a finger at me.

"What thoughts?" I asked a bit confused. I was confused a lot, wasn't I?

"You know what thoughts. You purposely put yourself in danger just so Edward will hold you again." She glared at me knowingly. Was that what I was going to end up doing? Well, if I must…

"No, Bella!"

"Fine," I sighed dramatically, rolling my eyes at her. But I would find a way. Now that I felt that spark between us, I had officially become almost addicted to him. I needed to feel that spark again, that's all I knew. And that's all that mattered at the moment.

Ok, early post, but also short... I couldn't think about what to write after this… But writing is how I deal with things… you know, like your mom reading your fan fiction to your dad through the phone, no matter how big a fit you throw… he he he , guilty as charged. Did you know that I even went on strike? Ha ha, well, I did…
