Let's experiment, shall we? This is kind of like a beginning to this collection. I'm (probably) for sure going to put these all into my story that I am working on. I just thought, why not give little teasers? If I feel like they give away too much, I'll simply take them down.

"Annie-" Edward tried.

"Shh! This is the best part!" Annie excitedly flipped the page. Edward just sighed. She said that ten minutes ago.

Getting bored as Annie continued reading, Edward took a relaxing seat behind his mate. He picked up a piece of her brown hair and started playing with he. Seeing all the frizziness made him smile. She was so adorable.

Edward didn't know how long he sat there, playing with Annie and occasionally rubbing her shoulders but he was awoken from his inner monologue when Annie sighed and closed her beloved book. Resting his chin on her shoulder, Edward hugged her from behind. "What is it?"

Annie sighed again before leaning back. "It's over. The series is over. The series I've been reading since 6th grade... Just over." Edward chuckled at Annie's seemingly dampened mood but quickly pecked her cheek.

"If you want, I have a few books you might like." Edward turned his face to gaze affectionately at his mate. She narrowed her eyes and raised an eyebrow. "What kind of books?"

In less than two seconds, Annie was on his back and racing halfway across the house to his room. Breathlessly, he set Annie down and came back with a pile of books. "Here's my original copy of Dracula-"

"Original?!" Annie made a hasty grab for it and instantly fell in love. The cover was a beautiful deep red with intricate vine designs. "Oh, Edward, it's beautiful."

Grinning, Edward reached a stone hand out and rubbed Annie's head, effectively ruining her hair. "Hey!"

"I also have a much more modern book called 'The Constellation of Vital Phenomena'." He handed her another book. She gladly accepted it and hugged the two to her chest.

"Thank you, Eddie." She leaned up and was mere inches from kissing him when a knock on the door broke them apart.

"What are you two nerds doing?" Emmett smirked, instantly thinking something dirty. Edward having heard his thoughts glared and took a step to shut the door in his annoying brothers face but Annie beat him to it.

Raising her hand, she flicked her wrist and smirked with satisfaction as a small volt of electricity shocked the big bear of a boy. "Ouch! Hey!"

Giggling, Annie jumped onto Edward's back and flung her arms around his neck. "Oops. Totally an accident."

Edward leaned up and kissed her cheek before racing out of his room and out of the house. "Get back here, you two!"

The two troublemakers just laughed into the wind, Annie's new books held closely between them.

Meanwhile..

Esme smiled sweetly and grinned at Carlisle. "It's sweet how Edward isn't sulking anymore."

Carlisle nodded at his wife. "I agree. He doesn't need to be alone and have to have those strange self pitying parties."

The household laughed lightly before continuing on with their business, hearing the wonderful sound of their brother and future sister laughing together under the canopies of the trees.
