Before we could leave the clearing Alice stopped us. She ran in front of us, graceful as always and put her hands up. I stopped the same time Edward did, wondering why Alice had stopped us.

    "Even though we have a lot of money do you think we could fix the cars?" she said with a innocent yet pleading expression. Carlisle looked taken aback to fixing the burnt cars we had or at least I had forgotten about. I guess that Carlisle had expected Alice, Emmett, and Edward to buy new cars like I was predicting he was going to, instead of going through the trouble of fixing them.

    "Well, of course Alice, if that's what you want," Carlisle responded after a while, "But it will be a challenge even for Rosalie and that's if she's willing to." I looked at Rosalie as did Alice. Rosalie looked like she was in a daze.

    "Like Carlisle said, it would be a challenge, the engines were probably shattered, so I could reshape the cars but the car engine's would need some work," Rosalie said in a voice that sounded as if she was thinking.

    "So will you?" Alice asked. Rosalie nodded her head, her beautiful blond hair bounced as she did. Alice sighed, like she was relieved that Rosalie would fix her Porsche when she could get a perfectly new yellow one. I wondered why it was that Alice really wanted her Porshe fixed. As Edward and the rest of the Cullens went ahead, I pulled Alice behind.

    "Alice," I started, " why is it that you want your old Porshe fixed when you can buy a new one?" Alice seemed to think for a while as we walked.

    "The memories that have been made by that Porshe are irreplaceable even if I buy a new one," Alice said in a distant voice as if remembering something, then she smiled. I was going ask what she meant or what memories had made that Porshe so great, but before I could choose which one to ask Alice gracefully skipped to the direction of the house. I shrugged making a mental note to ask later what she had meant.




    When I opened the door to the house instead of walking into the living room, I crashed into Edward's muscled chest covered by his green sweater he had changed into. His arms wrapped around me as if he was making sure I was real and not dead as the werewolves had wanted me and his, or now our, family. We swayed like we would if we were dancing, even though I still didn't know how to dance. I sighed in his sweater, feeling his golden eyes looking at me with concern. Edward's hand moved from my back to my chin, and lifted it, making me stare into his dazzling eyes that were filled with concern.

    "What's wrong Bella?" Edward asked in his melodic voice.

    "It's just that, even when I'm a vampire I'm still clumsy," I said referring to myself crashing into him a few seconds ago. Edward chuckled expecting something worse. He kissed my forehead and then my cheek and finally my lips. It wasn't one of those passionate kisses that we usually shared. This kiss made my body tingle under his lips as they softly pressed against my lips. I closed my eyes to really take in the full effect of this kiss, but I was a tad too late. Edward pulled away as soon as my eyelids fluttered down. They shot open when I didn't feel Edward anymore. I looked at him angrily when he pulled away and headed for the door that led to the kitchen. Edward turned back slightly, enough for one side of his face to face me.

    "Don't worry Bella. We have all eternity," Edward said in a way that made me want to blush. "For now I'm going to see if Rosalie needs any help on the cars." I looked at him confused. Weren't the cars still back where we had left them?

    "While you were walking here, Emmett, Jasper, and myself moved them to the family garage," Edward explained upon seeing my confused face.

    "Oh, okay. I'll see you later then," I said. After Edward left the room I wondered what to do. I wandered around the living room mindlessly, occasionally touching random objects that I didn't notice myself touching them. Then an idea popped into my head. Why not try that skiing thing again? Now that I could see more clearly and had more grace I should be able to, right? I smiled and headed to Alice's room to ask her to join me. If she did I could ask her my two questions from before. While climbing the stairs in human pace, I started making a list of all the things I could do or try now that I was a vampire. It was going to be a fun and interesting eternity.
