"Isabella...I love you. I've loved since I saw you in the VR. I need you!" He said hurriedly. I smiled like a goofy child and Carlisle scooped me up into his stone yet calming arms...

I couldn't believe that Carlisle loved me! I felt butterflies in my stomach with a sense or romance I hadn't felt in years...then I remembered Esme! and the rest of my family, what if they didn't accept Carlisle and I? I knew Carlisle could tell I was worried; he turned to me and lightly kissed my hand before asking what was wrong.

"Isabella my love, what's wrong?" he caressed my cheek and I smiled slightly at his touch. I put my hand on his and kept it there.

"What about Esme...and Rosalie and the rest? What happens if they don't accept us?" I said quickly until I felt like I was rambling on and I sucked in a deep breath as Carlisle smiled at me with his dazzling charms.

I kissed him on the cheek on impulse and smiled back goofily...but I never felt uncomfortable or embarrassed or like I wasn't enough like I did with Edward. That's love.

"Esme and I have been drifting apart...we only stayed together for the family. As for the rest, I love you Isabella and I cant give you up now!" He stated rather bravely and I kissed him hungry and needing him now!

He smiled into the kiss and pulled back gently and leant his head on mine. Together we walked hand in hand to our home where we would begin our beginning and this time it would be right. We finally emerged out of the forest and in front of the house, we stopped and sucked in a deep breath nervously. Carlisle gently opened the door to see Esme being comforted by Alice and Rosalie with Jasper and Emmett standing in the kitchen-suddenly everyone stopped and Esme turned around with angry tears in her eyes. Alice must've seen us.

"Esme-" Carlisle began and Esme cut him off with rage all directed at me.

"You listen Carlisle Cullen! I will never forgive you for choosing that skank over me!" she yelled and I felt a stab of pain.

"ENOUGH!" Carlisle belted out and she looked shocked, "Isabella is no skank! I love her...I did love you Esme but I need Isabella, please" he begged her to accept us and she looked at me with her daggers for eyes...

I had seen Carlisle and Bella together but didn't want to mention anything, until Edward came bursting through the door engulfed in rage. He told Esme everything and she broke down but I knew of her unfaithful ways to Carlisle but I still comforted her as she was my mother, I wondered how everyone would react to this and I knew Rose would be especially angry but surprisingly Emmett nor Jasper were-in fact they were pleased as was I. Finally Bella and Carlisle showed up and explained everything, thankfully Edward had left.

"I will never forgive you. Goodbye" Esme said blinded with rage and she shoved past Bella.

Everyone froze as Bella was a newborn she could go off at any moment and she did. Bella growled and pounced at Esme snarling viciously but was stopped by Emmett and Jasper. I sighed and Esme stormed out slamming the door, Carlisle calmed Bella down and sat everyone down.

"I hope you can all come to accept Isabella and I" Carlisle smiled towards her and she leant against him smiling.

"Of course" Jasper said nodding, "hell yeah!" Emmett boomed happily, "Absolutely" I chimed in.

"Rosalie?" Emmett asked nervously and she sighed.

"No way we can stop it" she growled and marched upstairs and Bella looked sad; I slid closer to her and put my arm around her comfortingly.
