Read bottom! Or don't, *shrugs* but it has my excuse why I haven't updated in a while

BPOV

"Maybe Tuesday, I'm free and in total use" Charlie said, twisting around a fork with his finger tip as I started to wash the dishes.

"........ Only if you and Bella come over for dinner"

"All right fine but at least let me bring something to contribute"

I raised my eyebrows watching… no more like listening with curiosity.

"Billy wants us to come to dinner after we go fishing Tuesday" he whispered after a moment.

I nodded and headed to get read for the dag nab meeting. Putting something on casual, through I don't know why. I added on my pair of swords and .9mm gun to feel more comfortable. The swords on my back cris crossed (of course they laid flatter and lower then usual) and my gun in the inside pocket of my jacket.

I looked at the mirror and sighed, I can't believe I am actually going. Wait…why am I going?

I shook my head and sighed once more, showing myself a sign of distress, I went over to the wall to bump my head. Managing to trip over air and fall.

"Only me" I murmured, standing up straight. I knew I had a couple of minutes left till they would think I wouldn't come at all. I slapped myself in the head, hitting myself harder then I meant too.

I walked downstairs, trying to look and act casual as I leave; I tripped and caught the door just before I hit the ground. Charlie sighed, most likely trying to hold back a laugh.

"And where are you going?"

"To a meeting"

"Uh-huh, what kind?"

I turned around to face and tell him, I watched his mouth twitched when he looked at my bewildered look, obviously amused with my expressions.

"I'm…not sure."

"Who's it with?" he asked, eyebrows raised.

"The…C-Cullen's" I said, leaving a moment of silence, he busted out laughing and then went serious…then smiled.

"Cool" he shrugged, amused at me and my surprised look, I sighed with relief, and ran out the door, happy to be in the free air. I stood at the doorstep in a matter of minutes. Looking at a smiling Alice.

"Alice, how- "an irritated velvet voice said, stopping in mid sentence.

I looked, dazzled, at Edward Cullen. Part of me arguing with the other part.

"Oh wow" the dazzled, more human side of me said, where as the other one, irritated one said something opposite.

"What the friggin A, snap out of it!"

"Come o!" a distant, yet close chirpy voice said, leading me away from him and towards even more vampires.

The next I know, I stand in front of 5 vampires, 3 whom I have seen at school, were waiting in their living room.

"Isabella Swann? I'm Esme" a warm and motherly voice said, I looked at someone I would guess would be like their mother. Second leader? Is it even possible for vampires to have more than one leader?

"I and the others would like to say that we will not hurt you nor any other humans"

"Yes, I hear, the pack has told me just a little bit ago, my father also" I sighed, looking at them square in the eyes, by then Edward and Alice joined their siblings and parents? In front of me.

"You are on a contract with them, if I am not mistaking…" they nodded.

"But…not with me, or any of the other hunters, I know. I've checked" I said irritated, obviously I am not used to be in the presence of their kind and not have my sword or gun or lighter in hand.

"But you are under the protection of one of the most powerful and respected hunters I know, thus I will not lay a finger on ya'll… for know."

"WHAT THE HELL IS THAT SUPPOSE TO ME" the guy name Emmett yelled in my faced.

"If you provoke me, or do anything that would hurt my kind, or humans. I will take measures" I said very calmly, in my mind I was doing flips. "I mean no offense" I added.

"Nor do I" the leader (the tall blonde man)

"Why you little-"

"Emmett!" he said sternly.

"No!" he growled, "who does she think she is? I mean I can crush her to tiny pieces alone right now, no-

"Emmett Cullen, I highly doubt you can do that too me. I am not a normal human being, and am considerably stronger then you may thank" I said, in between a growl and a calm voice.

"Prove it" he said, glaring along with his girlfriend, Rosaline.

"Arm wrestling?" I suggest, watching a smile form on his face. I know full well that if I hurt or accidentally tear off his arm (believe or not that happens, which is why I never arm wrestle with humans) Charlie would be furious. I looked at them all, then, seeing confused looks. Looks don't know if they should let it happen or not, the only non-confused looks were Alice and Emmett. Both for different reasons, I could tell.

The next think I knew, we were sitting at their table, which looked very expensive, mad of oak.

"Begin!" Alice said some how having a flag in her hand and waving it down like a chick would do at a car race. I smiled at a recent memory with a fellow hunter a year ago.

He started first, trying to put my arm down. It mad no move as he pushed an pushed, soon using all his strength, which mad a slight move, causing me to have to keep pressure in it. He actually managed to get it towards the table. That's a first.

After a while he looked exasperated.

"My turn?" I asked innocently, slamming it down on the table. Which took longer then it usually takes me to put someone down. The table, which happens to be made of oak wood, splinted, causing a piece of wood to go through my skin. I looked at them all, watching Edward jump, and Jasper come towards me, well actually flewing towards me. I caught him by the neck, keeping him an arms length away.

"You really need to control yourself Mr. Hale" I calmly said, amazingly.

I looked back at whom I guessed to be the leader.

"I don't mean to make offence; I will not hurt a hair on any of you. But I may request an actually treaty. You never know. I will observe you, and I will be a bit fidgety. I'm not use to having to observe vampires. I will talk to my colleagues." I said, looking back at Jasper Hale.

"And you, I would think since you are sworn not to drink any blood from a human, to try to control yourself. The only reason I am giving you all a slight trust from myself, is that you all, even Mr. Hale over here, seems to have a considerable amount of resistance." I let him go a while back) "and please call me Bella, I hate being called Isabella" I sighed, and left, turning a little to look at Edward when I got to the door.

"Please stop trying to get over my barrier" I whispered and left.
