Joseph's POV
I knew that both me and my dad took an instant dislike to Mrs. Cullen she was just too perfect, I know that this must sound petty but we were used to having the flawless family and being around her made us feel as though we were normal. This didn't make us like her very much, and so me and James decided to prank her and make her feel less perfect and special.
I woke up and prepared myself for school my twin brother James was doing the same thing across the room. We could smell bacon and eggs frying downstairs I was hungry. I rushed downstairs to find Esme cooking breakfast with a disgusted look on her face.
"What's wrong?" I asked I had to admit her face made me want to laugh
"The meat makes me feel ill, my family are vegetarian." she answered this made me laugh. Vegetarian that would not give them enough protean, she wasn't so perfect after all.
After breakfast Esme drove us to school. "Have a nice day." she called as me and James exited the car.
"We will!" we exclaimed.
I had a pretty normal day at school I got an 'A' in my Geography test and came top of the class in Mathematics. Me, James and Sarah walked to Karate and then moved onto band and afterward art club which was just down the road from school. Esme came and picked us up an four and a half hours later she seemed overly excited as we got in the car she began to talk
"Now kids," she began her smile lighting up to whole car "How was your day?" but before we could answer her phone started to play Every breath you take by the police she flipped it open and began to talk
"Hey Alice like the song choice suites you."
There was a pause while 'Alice' practically screamed down the phone at Esme
"Alice I'll be fine how is everything?"
Another hesitation
"Okay tell them all I love them and tell Carlisle I'm never leaving him again." she said laughing "right okay Alice I'll be careful…. Yeah…. No …….okay bye see you in twelve days." with that Esme hung up and we pulled into the driveway.
I was plotting as I wandered into the house wondering what the best and most humiliating way to prank her. We had decided to fill a bucket with super glue and then put it on top of the door so that when Esme opened the door the bucket would fall on her head.
We got into the house and Esme went to cook the tea, it was time to put the plan into action. I filled a bucket with super glue and angled the door so that if it was opened the bucket would fall on the persons head. I could hear Esme singing in the kitchen. It came to about half past eight and dinner was just about ready I heard Esme coming toward the door and I was practically shaking with anticipation. When suddenly I heard the phone ring. I gasped as I heard James scrambling toward the phone, he pushed me out of the way and opened the door. The bucket fell off the door and plopped onto my unsuspecting brothers head. But before the gasp had had chance to escape me lips Esme was pulling the bucket off James's head and she had the phone to her ear and was smiling as she spoke to the person on the other line. I scowled my prank had gone wrong this irritated me and now James was glaring at me.
it's a hard life.
