DESPITE HOW MANY FRIENDS ANNABEL HAS MADE DURING HER TIME IN FORKS, CAROLINE HASN'T HAD THE SAME EXPERIENCE.
As soon as the youngest Summers sister had heard this, she was practically throwing her sister out of the house for a Bel and Care day.
"You know, you have so many friends you can hang out with. Bother them, Bel," Caroline groaned.
Annabel scoffed, "Firstly, I don't bother them. They bother me," she rolled her eyes, "Jared broken into our house the other day, for God sake. And secondly, you're my sister. My sister with no new friends right now so it's my job to help you find some."
Caroline opened her mouth to protest but was quickly cut off by the sharp brow of Annabel. She shut her mouth — stifling a groan in the process — as she sauntered behind her sister with a pout.
Their location for Operation: Find Friends for Caroline happened to be the grocery store as that was the only place Bel managed to force Caroline into.
As Care overlooked the aisles for the things she needed, Annabel was on friend duty. She scouted out the building for anyone she thought seemed interesting with a burning passion and a new sense of responsibility for making her older sister slightly less lonely in the small town of Forks.
It was precisely three minutes into their search that Annabel was excitedly — and quite aggressively — tapping on Caroline's shoulder repeatedly.
Caroline jumped with a start, "What! Can't you see I'm busy?"
"I can but I don't care," Annabel squealed, "look, right there! He seems interesting."
Indulging in her sister's behaviors, Caroline sighed as she looked to the man. She could see the appeal; he was handsome. But the idea of pursuing someone didn't seem right to her.
Instead of showing her sister any interest, she rolled her eyes, "I don't have time for this."
Though, you'd think she would know her own sister. Her sense of determination was far above the average person and so with a huff, Annabel took of in his direction.
Despite hearing her clearly, Annabel continued her trek to the man that peaked her interest. She was pleasantly satisfied when she realized he was accompanied by another guy.
"Hi," Annabel beamed to the two, a gleam in her eyes.
The two men turned in her direction, one with a burly size and a buzz cut as the other one remained tall but not as tall with a long, fluffy hair.
"Hello," The shorter one said with a kind smile on his face.
Annabel's beam grew brighter at their kindness, "Me and my sister are new here. We've been trying to get to know some people so I was just wanting to introduce myself!"
Buzz Cut's eyes widened with excitement, "You're the Summers sisters? Our friend Bella was telling us a little bit about you guys."
"You know Bella? I know Bella!" Annabel screeched.
"I'm Emmett and this is my brother Antonio," he introduced himself, "we live a little out of the main town in the woods, sorta like you guys."
With a whole lot of regret, Caroline walked over to the trio that consisted of her sister. The two men were far too handsome for such a small town, she deduced but refrained from showing it.
Antonio's eyes seemed to light up the second Caroline walked over and it didn't go unnoticed in the slightest by her little sister or his brother. Both Emmett and Annabel shared a pleased look as their siblings seemed to practically be staring at one another.
"H-Hi, I'm Caroline," she introduced, "you guys are Dr. Cullen's foster sons, right? At least some of them."
Antonio smiled at her. His whole body seemed to warm as he looked at the eldest Summers girl, "Yes, Ma'am."
"Right; I'm his head nurse at the moment. He's really good at what he does, that's for sure. Kinda scary, honestly. I mean, I've worked in so many places yet he definitely takes the cake for the most sufficient doc I've ever met." Caroline rambled.
Emmett decided to make himself known to the conversation as he butted in, "He's really passionate about his work. Has been for as long as I've known him."
Annabel furrowed her brows. Because, yes, she had met the doctor when she ran lunch to her sister a few times. He was ungodly beautiful but also seemed way too young to have sons — adopted or not — of their age. "Wait, how long have you known him? Dr. Cullen looks so young."
Antonio laughed, "Yeah, he is. He and our foster mother, Esme found out they couldn't have kids a few years into their marriage. They started fostering children and it soon became six teenagers."
Caroline's eyes bulged out of her head, "Oh, my. I could never. I can barely keep this one under control so kudos to them."
Annabel gawked at her sister, "I'm not out of control!"
"Oh, I beg to differ," Caroline said with an eye roll and this specific moment kept in her mind.
It didn't matter how nice the Cullen's were being to her, Caroline would be giving Annabel a stern scolding when they made it back to the car.
The older blonde cleared her throat, "Well, we've gotta get going. See you around. Come on, Bel."
Annabel bit her lip. She had a last hurrah sitting on her tongue but she knew for a damn fact that Caroline would kill her if she actually went through with it.
As the two boys began walking off, Bel had a moment of realization that told her this was a now or never kind of moment. "Antonio," she called out to them, causing Antonio and Emmett to move a little closer to her again. Caroline wanted to strangle the girl as she turned back around to figure out what she planned, "are you single?"
Emmett was practically choking on his spit as Antonio had a large, almost embarrassed looking smile on his face, "Uh, well, yes."
Annabel grinned. "Perfect. Seven tomorrow at Stefani's. Dinners on me. Caroline will be there."
And that's how she left the scene, Antonio absolutely flabbergasted with Emmett barking out laughter. Caroline was all but thrilled as she stormed after her little sister to the car.
