Prologue

Bella's POV

It has now been 10 years since that horrid day in court. I no longer have nightmares about my step father John Dickinson and last minute babysitter Jason hurting me. My new family had saved me and has allowed me to finally experience what its like to have a real loving family. On that will protect you from anything and everything.

My oldest brother Emmett is really protective of me. I think even more so then my big brother Jasper; however I don't call him by Jasper, I call him my Teddy. Anyway my big sister Rosalie, she loves to teach me how to fix cars and how to dance. I love my Rosie Rose. And so does my big brother Emmett, known to me as my Pillow.

Well Teddy (Jasper)he is protective of me as well. Though he mainly just calms me down while Emmett hurts whoever it is that is hurting me. Teddy loves to teach me about the Civil War and well just mainly all about history. I love it , but not as much as I love him. Alice though I call her Ali Al. She can see the future and she also loves to shop. Oh my God does she love to shop. But what makes it worse is when she wants to play Bella Barbie. God I hate that. Ugh.

Well as for my other big brother, Edward. Well… I see him so much differently then I see my other siblings. When I was younger I would only go to him if I couldn't find Teddy or Pillow, but ever since I heard him play the piano when I was 13 years old I felt my feelings for him change from that of a brother to that of something more. But I fear what makes it worse is that Teddy knows how I feel and whenever he, Edward, and I are in the same room Teddy gives me this sly and knowing look. It drives me crazy. But not as crazy as Edward has been lately. I just get the feeling that he's been avoiding me for reasons that I wish I knew. He has stopped giving me piano lessons, and has stopped allowing me into his room to read some of his books and listen to his awesome taste in music. Truth be told I really miss my best friend Edward.

Well you might be wondering about my friend Jacob Black right? Well we've kept in touch by letters and I can't wait till we move to Forks. Evidently he just moved to La Push and he will only be a couple miles away from us. God I'm so excited to see him again. I hope that he feels the same way about me.
