(A/N): I LOVE YOU PEOPLE! Thank you to everyone who reviewed and so on. Well, I asked you to guess my age last chapter; the highest I got was 17. I laughed my head off. No offense to the person who said that. I am in fact… TWELVE YEARS OLD! One person got it right, others said sixteen or fourteen. My mum (or mom to the Americans) says I'm 12 going on 30 though! Anyways enjoy the bonding! Thank you especially to FleurElizabethCullen for the idea! Also, they live on the outskirts of SEATTLE, not Forks yet…
Disclaimer: I OWN TWILIGHT! MWAHAHAHAHA! *men in white clothes with big needles run forward* NO! DON'T TAKE ME BACK! I DON'T OWN TWILIGHT! NOOOOOO! *drag me away kicking and screaming for Jasper to save me*
Bella's POV
I woke up on something cold and hard. I opened my eyes to see daddy staring back at me.
"Good morning little one." He smiled, ruffling my hair.
"Good morning." I mumbled as I sat up. All the family apart from Nana were smiling at me. I was still very sleepy so I fell back onto daddy's chest with a smack.
"Ow." I moaned. Daddy's chest started rumbling beneath me as he laughed with the others. Suddenly I was picked up by Alice who was still giggling softly.
"I'm tired! Put me back down." I demanded as I struggled against her hold.
"Nope. You need to have a bath and get dressed." She announced. I was about to protest before she said something that convinced me.
"Esme will make you pancakes if you do!" Alice sung. I smiled and put my head on her shoulder. She nodded in victory and skipped with me up the stairs. I wondered how someone so small could skip and carry me at the same time.
"Here we are." Alice said as we entered a pearly white bathroom with a giant bath in the corner. She put me down on the toilet seat and I crossed my legs.
"Pink or blue bubble bath?" Alice asked as she turned the taps on.
"Blue please." I said happily. Alice grinned and squirted the blue liquid in. Once the bath was filled up I took off my clothes and hopped into the bubbles. Alice was getting me a towel so I played with the bubbles for a few minutes. When she came back she gasped and dropped the towel on to the tiles.
"Bella, what happened to your stomach?" She asked as she flitted to my side. I looked down to see a large purple bruise.
"The red-eyed man did it. He held me very tight and it really hurt. I didn't think it would leave a mark." I frowned in confusion. I looked back up to Alice and she nodded her head. She gave me a sponge and I washed myself while I asked her a question.
"Are you my auntie now?" I asked her.
"If you want me to be. I can be your sister or just your best friend." She said beaming. I thought for a second before answering.
"I want you to be my sister, for Jasper to be my brother but Edward doesn't feel like a brother yet." I said thoughtfully.
"Jasper will be very happy. Are you done?" She asked as she picked up the blue towel. I got out and she wrapped me up.
"I'm just going to go get you some clothes." She called as she skipped out the door. I snuggled into the towel and sighed peacefully. Alice came back in after a couple of minutes carrying some underwear, a white skirt and a blue polo shirt. I got up off the floor and took the clothes. I got dressed and Alice handed me a pair of flip flops.
"Esme made you pancakes so come on!" She shouted as she ran out the door. I giggled and chased after her. I ran out of breath and walked in to the lounge where Alice was standing.
"Carlisle, can you look at Bella please?" She asked in a worried tone. Mommy and daddy jumped up.
"Why?" They said at the same time. Alice knelt down and lifted my top to show the bruise on my stomach. Everyone gasped.
"Bella, how did this happen?" Grandpa asked.
"The red-eyed man did it. He held me really tight. I didn't think it would leave a bruise." I said looking at the bruise. Grandpa came over to me and examined it.
"Its fine, it will heal soon. Did he do anything else to you?" He asked seriously. I held out my arm.
"He got angry with the red-eyed woman and spat at her. A bit of it landed on me and it burned horribly." I said scowling. Grandpa looked at it and his face changed.
"It'll leave a scar. Anything else he did to you?" He said calmly. I shook my head just as Esme came in with my pancakes.
"Here you go honey." She said handing them to me before sitting down next to Grandpa. I looked around the room like the night before to decide whose lap to sit on. I skipped over to Edward who was sitting on the little sofa, put my plate on his lap, climbed up the other side of the sofa and crawled onto his lap. He chuckled and pulled me closer to him. I couldn't wait a minute longer so I dug into my food.
"You know Bella, if you eat like that you'll end up as big as your daddy." Edward whispered in my ear. I growled at him and went back to eating causing daddy to burst out laughing.
"You just got growled at by a six year old!" He said to Edward.
"Shut up Emmett! It wasn't that funny." Alice said. Daddy snapped his jaw shut but he looked like he was still trying to hold the laughter in.
"Right Bella, you're spending the day with Jasper and Edward as the rest of us have things to do. Is that okay, honey?" Mommy asked me.
"Okay, what are you doing?" I asked her as I finished my breakfast.
"Alice, Nana and I need to go shopping, daddy needs to get a few things and Grandpa needs to go to work." Mommy explained without looking at my eyes. She stuttered over a few words so I wondered if she was lying. (A/N: She can hardly say I'm gonna catch me a big old grizzly, can she?)
"Thank you Nana," I said as she took my plate and smiled. "When are you all going then?"
"We're going now." She said as she stood up. She came over to me and gave me a kiss on my cheek. Daddy did the same and ruffled my hair.
"See you later little one. Don't let your uncles get you in too much trouble." He said looking sternly at them. Edward, Jasper and I waved goodbye as they got in the cars and drove off. Edward shut the door and the both of them stared at me.
"So, what are we doing today then?" I asked as I looked up at them.
"Whatever you want Bella." Edward said, smiling crookedly.
"I want to know about you and some other stuff." I said. Jasper and Edward nodded, so I skipped into the lounge and jumped on the sofa. They laughed behind me as I fought with the cushions, trying to sit up.
"Okay, so what do you want to know?" Edward asked as he and Jasper sat down on the fluffy carpet.
"Um, well, where are we? I mean what town or city." I asked first.
"We're in Seattle still, just on the outskirts though. You must have lived in the city." Edward said. (A/N: As I said in the AN at the top, they will live in Forks later on.)
"I think I did. I would always hear the cars outside and I wouldn't be able to fall asleep for hours. Okay next question, what are your favourite colours?" I asked. I knew it was a very boring question but it was my favourite.
"Um, blue." Jasper answered. Edward looked like he was deep in thought before he told me.
"Green." Edward said, I giggled and he looked at me questioningly.
"That's my favourite colour today too. It changes everyday." I said.
"I have a question now. What's your favourite animal?" Jasper asked.
"I like bunnies." I said dreamily, thinking of the rabbit I looked after back at the big house.
"I like lions." Edward answered, chuckling at my expression. I snapped out of it and glared at him.
"And I like koalas." Jasper said in an Australian accent. I laughed and blurted out a question before Edward could.
"Why are all the family so pretty and have golden eyes? Mommy told me that you weren't actually relatives, whatever that means." I had been dying to ask someone and then seemed the perfect time. Edward and Jasper stared at each other for a second before Edward spoke.
"It's because we're special. As for the relatives part, Esme and Carlisle adopted all of us when we were little. The only exception is that your mom and Jasper are actually brother and sister." He explained.
"What do you mean by special? I'm confused." I frowned.
"You'll find out soon." Jasper said simply and Edward glared at him.
"Why don't you eat? None of you ate breakfast this morning. It's the most important meal of the day you know." I pointed out.
"We're on a special diet." Edward said quickly. I sighed knowing I wasn't going to get anymore answers from them.
"Can we do something else?" I asked, hopping off the sofa.
"Sure. Whatever you want." Jasper said, smiling down at me.
"I want to play a game. Do you have monopoly?" I asked innocently. Edward chuckled and ran upstairs. He came back down a minute later carrying a box.
"Come on then." I said and ran back in the lounge.
We played until the others came back. Edward won, Jasper came second and I came last as usual. I sat and pouted for a while before Nana came in with a plate of cookies. I jumped up and hugged her before taking them and scoffing them down.
I sat on daddy's lap all night as we talked and laughed, I had never felt that happy ever in my life. When I started to get sleepy, mommy carried me upstairs and helped me put my pyjamas on that Alice had bought that day. She asked me where I wanted to sleep and I said on daddy's chest again. She laughed and took me back downstairs. Daddy's face lit up when I curled up on his chest and fell into another dreamless sleep.
Hehe! I love Emmett as a dad. I wish he was mine! Hell I love all of them! Okay, so did you like it? Bella has started noticing things already; don't worry though she will find out soon like Jasper said. Next chapter will be Bella spending the day with the girls and then the chappy after that will be them going out as a family. PLEASE give me ideas in your reviews because at the moment I'm not sure what to do :S. REVIEW MY LOVELY JUBBLY PEOPLE!
