Chapter 5- Reunited with Friends

We pulled up at the Cullen's house and it was just as beautiful as I remembered it. I am glad Esme decided to keep it the same because this house is so great. 

 I step out of the car, but of course trip somehow. I hear a booming laughter coming from inside so I assumed Emmett not only saw that, but now has something to make fun if me for.

"Shut up Emmett. It's not funny, I usually am not like this." Uggh, this is going to be a long day. Even though I am excited to be here, I want to scream. Emmett has it coming.

I saw him step out of the house and he was still trembling from his laughter. "You, not clumsy?" He said in a mocking voice.  "That isn't even possible." He said and helped me up and scooped me into one of his brotherly hugs.

"Hardy har har. So funny." I said and punched him lightly on the shoulder with my good arm as lightly as possible. He put me down and smiled.

"Was that suposed to hurt, or are you trying to tickle me?" He teased.

"Tickle you definatly" I laughed and realized just how much I missed joking around with Emmett.

Everyone came out smiling then, except Edward, and I decided to leave Emmett alone for a whiile. Esme reached me first. "Oh, Bella. Sweetie, I have missed you so much. I feel terrible that we left you without an explanation. I am so glad you decided to come visit. Oh, how have you been? Hows Charlie and everyone? Did you have a good graduation? Oh, I wish I could've been there supporting you. I feel like you won't love me as much as you used to because I left. Oh, please forgive me-"  She sobbed.

Jasper cut in "Esme, let the poor girl breathe. We have all day to talk." I smiled at him and he gave me a wink.

 She smiled and gave me a hug. I always thought of Esme as my mom. She was so kind and I missed her so much.

"I missed you so much Esme. More than words can explain. And I am glad to be here to. I have been fine, except for my hand. Charlie is great. Graduation was fine, and don't worry about missing it. Also, how could I ever not love you as much as my heart allows. You are one of the sweetest people I know." I hugged her tightly and then let go.

"My, your poor hand. Don't worry, as long as you do as told, it will heal. Let me go get you something to make you feel better." She ran into the house and Jasper came over to me.

"Hey, Bella. It's good to see you again." He said and gave me a hug. I am glad to see he isn't bothered by him almost killing me at my party before they left. I still feel bad that he felt it was his fault, but he can't help he is a vampire and I am human.

"Oh, Jasper. I have missed you so much." I hugged him back, but he let go so I did to.

Rosalie turned to me, and once again, I was shocked by her beauty. I feel  so boring next to her. "Hey Bella."

"Rose, I missed you so much. I am glad that I get to see you again. Please, can we try to be friends. I would love nothing more than for you not to hate me." I hugged her.

"Oh, Bella. I am surprised to say this, but I missed you too. It just hasn't been the same without you hanging around, even though you aren't my favorite person in the world. And sure, lets be friends, or try. You know, I don't  hate you, I envy you." She said hugging me. I was so surprised by this simple gesture. The one vampire that dosen't like me is hugging me. Wow.

"You, envy me. Why. You have Emmett, a wonderful family, you are invincible, and you are the most gorgeous person on the planet. Why would you be jealous of me when you have everything?" I wonder what she could possibly be jealous of about me, I am just a boring old human.

"Because you are living. You can grow up, have children and a family. Me, it will always be me and Emmett, not that ther's anything wrong with that. It's just I always wanted to grow up and have a wonderful husband that loves me, children to take care of, a big house where my kids can play, and to have grandchildren. I can never have children, but I do have a wonderful husband and a big house, only, no children can be in the picture." She looked sad and I understood. I wanted to have children of my own someday, and Rosalie will never have that chance.

"Rose, I understand. I want to have children somedyay too. How about this, you can be the god mother/aunt of my children if I have any. Everyone else can be an aunt and uncle too." I said hoping that would bring us closer.

"Oh, Bella! I would love nothing more. Thank you." She smiled and that smile gave me the feeling that we would be friends someday.

"Bella" Esme called. "I have some ice for your arm to sooth it. I didn't know what else to do because I can't really do anything about a broken bane." She came up to me with a bag of ice in hand.

"Thank you Esme. That is very nice of you."I smiled and took the ice from her. I don't really think I need ice, but I took it anyway to make her feel better.

"Your welcome sweetie. If you need anything else call for me and I'll be there." She said sweetly and started walking into the house. "Come on everyone, lets go inside."

"Alright lets go." We all walked inside and I felt like I was home. Everything was just like I remembered it.
