Edwards point of view. (EPOV)

"Rosalie I don't know why you want to go hunting so bad?" I asked, getting up from my spot on the couch. "Because we haven't gone in a week. That's why." Rosalie said with a half smile as she pulled Emmett up. "Okay lets go Rose." Emmett said with a smile. Figures she can make him do what ever she wants. I thought with a small smile. "Alice are you and Jasper coming?" Rosalie called up the stairs. Alice bonded down the stairs smiling. "Of course, the whole family is coming." Alice said. Jasper walked down the stairs before I sighed. "Alright then, let's go." I said before I grabbed my Volvo keys and walked out to my car.

The moment we parked, I split. Like I want to be with all the happy couples. Please. Maybe I can find a bear, and tease Emmett with it. I smiled at the thought but kept walking. The forest was quiet today, which was good. It meant that all the campers would not be here to scare away the wild life. I walked father into the forest before I stopped, something smelled good. I mean really good. Like a hot fudge Sunday would smell to a human. Maybe its a new species of lion? I thought hopefully. I walked towards it but stopped when I actually saw what it was. A little girl was sitting on the ground crying. She was wearing pink care bear PJ's and she was barefooted. Her brown hair was tied into two piggy tails with what looked like a hair tie with large circular pink beads. Her left pant leg was torn and blood was matted on her knee. She rubbed her eyes stubbornly as more tears fell. I felt sick to my stomach. Not only was this little girl crying but I had wanted to eat her. This was going to be hard. "Hey sweetie, what's the matter?" I asked taking a step from the bushes. She immediately looked up at me, scared. Well at least she had some senses. That was a step. I started walking towards her when she grabbed a stuffed white cat that was a little dirty now, and hugged it to her chest. "I'm not supposed to talk to strangers." She whispered. I tried to read her mind but was frustrated to know, I couldn't. "That's good, who taught you that?" I asked, as a sat on my knees by her. "My mommy." She whispered, before she sniffled. "Well, my name is Edward. What's your's?" I asked. She was caught off guard but finally spoke up. "Bella." She whispered. "See now we're not strangers anymore." I said with a smile. Bella smiled before she walked over and threw her arms around my neck and cried. "Bella where are you parents?" I asked. Bella sniffled before she spoke. "The man hurt them. Mommy told me to run, and now I'm lost." Bella cried. I looked around before I picked her up. "Don't worry Bella. Just hang on okay?" She nodded before she buried her head in my shoulder. I began running as fast as my vampire speed could take me. I needed to find my family.

They saw me before I saw them, they where all sitting in the clearing before I started to come from the forest. Alice ran to me before looking at the little girl. "Oh Edward, I saw it a few minutes ago." Alice whispered. I nodded. I knew she would see it. "Hey sweetie." Alice cooed. Bella kept her head in my shoulder and didn't look up. I laughed as Alice looked hurt. "She's not aloud to talk to strangers." I whispered. Alice's face turned from hurt to excited. "Oh sweetie. I'm Edward's sister, Alice." Alice said before Bella looked up. "I'm Bella." Bella whispered. Alice grinned at her before we walked to the family. For the first time since Emmett came, I saw Rosalie's eyes melt with love. It was amazing. Esme and Rosalie rushed over to us before Esme smiled at Bella, who ducked her head. Alice and I laughed at their hurt expressions. "Don't feel bad. She's just not aloud to talk to strangers." Alice explained. Esme smiled before she took one of Bella's hands. "Oh dear, I'm Esme, Edwards mother. And this is Rosalie, my daughter. This is Carlisle, my husband and Edwards's father, and this is Jasper, Alice's husband, and my son. And Emmett, Rosalie's husband, and my son." Esme said introducing everyone. "I'm Bella." Bella whispered. Esme smiled warmly at her, her mothering instinct taking over. "What happened Edward?" Carlisle asked as Esme took Bella from Edward. "I was looking for a bear," Edward started, ignoring the angry growl from Emmett. Bella heard it too and ducked her head in Esme's shoulder. Emmet rushed over to Bella. "Sorry Bella, I didn't mean to scare you." Emmett said with a smile, Bella looked at him and giggled as Rosalie hit his head. "And she was in the middle of the forest crying." Edward said. Esme gave a soft aww before Carlisle spoke again. "Why was she in the forest alone?" Carlisle asked. "She said that her parents where attacked by a man, and her mom told her to run. Then she got lost." Edward explained. This time it was Esme's turn to speak. "Who would go after this little girl?" Everyone looked at Bella and realized she had fallen a sleep. Esme smiled before looking at Rosalie. "Do you want to hold her?" Esme asked. "Sure." Rosalie said quickly before she looked at Emmett and smiled. "Alright I think we need to take her to our place. Edward, you, Esme, Alice, and Rosalie go home with her. Okay?" Carlisle said. "Jasper, Emmett and I will go find her parents." Carlisle said. "Okay, Let's get going." Alice said with a smile before everyone split.

Esme and Alice walked into their home first before Rosalie and Edward walked in with Bella. "We don't have a room for her to sleep." Alice said looking at Esme. "We'll let her sleep on the couch for tonight, and we'll figure out what to do after that, if she's staying, when the boys get here." Esme said and watched as Rosalie put Bella on the couch. "Do we have a blanket?" Edward asked as Alice rushed from the room. Esme smiled as Alice came back with a thick comforter and pillow. After Bella was all tucked in the four walked into the kitchen, but didn't have to wait long for the men to get home. It was only an hour later before Jasper, Emmett and Carlisle walked threw the door. "Did you find her family?" Esme asked as Carlisle walked over to her. "Yes. We did." Carlisle said softly, looking down. "Oh no, tell me their not dead." Esme whispered. "We can't Mom." Emmett said as he hugged Rosalie. Everyone fell quiet then. "What happened?" Alice whispered. "They where attacked by a vampire." Jasper said softly. "Oh no." Rosalie said. "Who is she?" Edward asked. "We found all that out. Actually, she's from Phoenix Arizona. Her mom's name was Renee, and her father was Charlie Swan, he was the police chief. Her full name is Isabella Marie Swan, but that's all I got out of their wallets." Carlisle said. "They had all that in their wallet?" Esme asked. "Ya, apparently, they where here on a camping trip." Carlisle said. "Oh." Alice said. "Well what do we do?" Esme asked. Carlisle finally smiled at her. "I think we should adopt her." Carlisle said. They all smiled at that time. "Are you sure?" Esme asked. "Positive, I'll find more out about her tomorrow, but for now, to keep her safe, I think that's what we need to do." Carlisle said. "Okay, all in favor of keeping little Isabella Marie Swan, raise your hands." Esme said. Seven hands shot up in the air. "Then its settled. Isabella Marie Swan is now Isabella Marie Cullen." Esme said before they all grinned and went into their rooms for the night.
