BPOV:
The journey home went far too fast. I needed time to think. What was that strange spark between me and Edward? I couldn't like him? I mean, sure; he seemed amazing, but I barely knew him. The whole family seemed so lovely. I couldn't wait to meet their parents, the really were amazing; to raise five children and still have them so polite.
I rode in the car with my parents. We talked about the trip, and I told them it was great. They just seemed happy to have me back, and I was happy to be back, albeit very tired. I listened to my iPod for most of the journey, that's probably why it went so fast. I always got lost in music.
The Cullens pulled into their huge drive as they pulled into ours, I noticed that Emmett was driving, and noted that he must be at least 17. When they got out of the car, they all made their way over to our house, and I noticed that Emmett had his arm around Rosalie, and Jasper had his arm around Alice. They couldn't be together? They were related, wasn't this wrong on like a trillion different levels? I made a note to ask them later.
I got out of the car as my parents did.
"Come on then guys, let's get inside" my mum instructed. Everyone followed suit, and went into the house.
"Bella, your father and I are going out for a little bit, we'll be home in few hours. You can stay here with everyone and get acquainted. We'll see you later." My mum said quickly whilst heading to the door. I felt a bit angry at her for leaving me in this rather awkward situation, but the Cullens seemed mice enough. This was proved as soon as they left, when Alice ran up to me and enveloped me in a hug.
"I know we are going to be best friends." She whispered, I could hear her smile. I could see Rosalie and Emmett over Alice's shoulder, holding hands. This reminded me of my previous question, so I let it bubble to my lips.
"Um, so, are you guys like, together?" I stuttered awkwardly gesturing to Rosalie ad Emmett as well as Alice and Jasper. Rosalie laughed.
"Yes," she began.
"We are. But it's okay. I mean, we aren't actually related or anything." I looked back at her, confused. Alice explained to me.
"Some of us are related, but it doesn't affect our relationships. Edward and Emmett are my biological brothers, and Carlisle and Esme are our parents. Rosalie and Jasper are actually twins, and Carlisle and Esme adopted them when they were a few months old. Me and Edward are also twins." She explained.
"Wow." I said. It was a lot to take in. it was clear that Emmett was the oldest, which is probably why he was driving before, but they all seemed to be fairly close in age.
"So how old are you all?" I wondered out loud. Emmet was the one to talk this time.
"I'm the oldest." He said proudly.
"I'm 18, and Rose and Jasper are both 17. Edward and Alice are 16. How about you?" he asked.
"I'm 16." I said.
"Cool! That means we might be in the same classes!" Alice yelled, practically jumping up and down.
"Wait, so you're coming to my school?" I said, my mum had never mentioned this.
"Yup, we all are." Edward spoke up this time, shocking me. I had never heard him speak before. His voice was to smooth, like velvet. It sent chills down my spine, and made me think how much of an amazing singer he must be if his voice was that good. I realised that I had been staring at him for way too long. I simply smiled, realising that I wouldn't be able to form words.
"So what are you doing tonight?" Alice asked me. I thought for a moment. I wasn't really doing anything. I had just got back, when could I have possibly made plans? They had all been with me the whole time.
"Nothing." I answered. Alice and Rosalie looked at each other and a huge grin spread on their faces.
"SLEEPOVER!" They both screamed at the same time.
Well, there you go. Sorry it was quite short, like I said I'm pretty short on time. I thought I might as well give you something, even if it's short. Please review! I love to know what you think!
Promise I will write again soon,
