Could It Be

Chapter 30

Bella's P.O.V.

After i finish eating Esme and I head to the living room and cuddle up in her chair together and watch a movie. I'm not really paying attention to the movie because I'm staring at Esme and studying her. She is beautiful in every way for me but i can see that her past is ugly.

I can tell because of how she watches almost everything and studies it with her eyes. She studies men more than she does women. She keeps her guard up when she's out in public but is more relaxed at home. Her eyes hold a story that I cant wait to figure out. Shes a mystery but a beauty at the same time.

Her face has small scars in some spots and so does her back. I know its weird to basically watch someone but I cant help but to watch Esme. She captures my attention with everything and she's so beautiful. She's perfect.

"Its rude to stare at people." Esme sahs not taking her eyes off of the tv.

I look away from her and notice that everyone else is smiling at us and cuddled up to their respective mate.

"Its a crime to be so beautiful and not let me stare." I say to her.

"Awwwwwwwwwwwwww." Alice says.

I look over to her and smile and slightly blush a little. I look back to Esme and she kisses me on the lips gently and then she looks to everyone else as well.

"You two are so perfect for each other. I'm glad that you finally found somelne Esme and I'm glad that its Bella." Edward says. Carlisle nods and kisses Edward on the head.

I smile to them and then kiss Esme on the cheek before standing up and heading to the kitchen for a glass of water. Esme tries to come with me but I tell her to stay where she is and that it won't take me a second before i was back and in her arms. I grab a glass from the cabinet and fill it with water and chug the glass down. I rinse the glass out and wash it before heading back to the living room. When I enter the living room I notice that something is different. I look to Esme and she looks nervous before grabbing me and wrapping me in a hug.

"What's wrong Esme?" I ask.

"Bella we have family coming in the next hour and Esme doesnr know how to handle the jealousy that's pumping through her veins when she knows that there will be unmated vampires coming into our house with you being unmarked." Emmett says.

I hear a smack and hear his wine as i look to Esme.

"I won't leave your side. No need to worry." I lean up and kiss her.gently on the lips and then we hear a knock at the door.

Esme shoves her face into my neck and rubs her face there for a second and then she pulls away smiles and walks tk the door to welcome their family. I stand beside Alice and hold her hand and also Emmett's hand. They both know I want some support.

I hear nothing and then they walk in. There is five of them and four of them are female and it appears that there is a set of triplets in this family. They all stare at me and instead of cowering back like i would have thought i would i stood my ground and i see them turn their taxes to the others in the room besides me.

"Welcome back Denali's i hope Alaska is treating you all fare. As you have noticed we have a new member in our family. Her name is Isabella Swan and she is Esme's mate so be nice." Carlisle says.

"Its nice to meet you Isabella, my name is Carmen Denali and this is my mate Elizer. Then there's the triplets Tanya, Kate, and Irina." Carmen says and shakes my now free hand.

"Call me Bella and it is nice to meet you all as well." I say with a surprisingly clear voice. Its probably the only time my voice has sounded that good.

Esme walks to me and wraps her arms around my waist and she talks to me through my mind.

"Your voice sounded great."

"Thanks I was surprised myself."

She kisses me on the side of my head and then we pay attention to their family. I see them studying me and get a little nervous. Do I have something on me?

"Sorry Bella it is quite rude of us to stare but my husband can sense nothing but power coming from you and it's a quite rare type of power he is sensing." Carmen says.

I look arlund and nktice that everyone is staring at me now and I'm beyond nervous. My breathing starts to speed up and my body is feeling weird. I pull away from Esme and back into the corner of the room and face the wall to try and calm myself down.

Bella you are okay. This is nothing your just overreacting. You had way more eyes on you the first day of school so suck it up nothings going to happen. I think some fresh air will do me some good before I head to bed.

I turn around and see that everyone is watching me still and so I advert my gaze to the floor and head towards the front door. When I grab the handle and pull it back the door goes flying off of its hinges and I'm holding the door in my hand.I quickly look to the others and see mixed emotions on their faces. I look right at Emse and see that she doesnt seem mad that i just broke their door. I gently set the door down and head outside and try to breathe.

Why is this so hard. You have been breathing your whole life now get it together and act right, your embarrassing yourself in there. I look to the house and see that they are still watching me.

"Stop watching me!!!!!!!!" I yell and run off into the forest.

What's wrong with me.

Suddenly I'm tackled to the ground and being flipped over.

Bella...Bella lets go to bed wake up. I jerk awake and see that I'm still sitting in Esme's lap and the movie is still playing. I see everyone smile at me and then they start saying good night to me.

I get up and we both head upstairs to our room and I flop down on the bed and instantly fall back to sleep.

That was one of the weirdest dreams I have ever had.
