It has been three years since I last saw my older brother, but here he is, standing in the pouring rain outside our front door in the dreary town of forks. His hands were in his pockets and he was looking down at his shoes in an ashamed manor and I just kind of gawked at him for a moment, trying to get over the initial shock. He had been sent to rehab at the age of 15 after being found with drugs. It broke Esme's heart and she blamed herself for letting it get that far. She was insistent that we could sort out his problems without having to send him away, but Carlisle convinced her it would be the best thing to do in the situation.

"Hi" He muttered to me, looking up slightly through his damp hair. He must have been freezing; he was only wearing a thin t-shirt and trousers which were both soaked along with the rucksack on his back. I ushered him inside were he stood dripping in the hallway as he tried to avoided my eye contact at any cost.

"Hey" I said "What are you doing here?" I was genuinely confused at why he was here. After leaving Rehab, he had gone to live without aunt because he "wasn't ready to come home yet". It upset Esme greatly for him to not to want to come back but she couldn't change his mind and he had been there for the last year.

"Sorry" He whispered "I can just go if you want" I looked at him shocked before pulling him into a hug, which I noticed he flinched away from. I held him there despite his resistance and a few stray tears fell down my cheeks. He didn't return the hug and just rested his head against my shoulder until I let go of him.

"Of course you don't have to go" I told him. I took his hand and led him up the stairs to his room which hadn't really been touched since he had left. I opened the door and ushered him inside, following him in. I glanced at this rucksack which was a soaked as him which left me guessing he had nothing to wear.

"Umm.. I could go and get something of Carlisle's to wear if you want" I asked him and he simply nodded at me so I left him to go and get some clothes. I found a pair of casual jeans and a button up shirt. I returned with them, told him that Esme and Carlisle were at work and left him to it. I stood outside of his door for a while thinking about why he would be back without a call or any indication. He only sent a email every now and again which very were vague. I slipped down the stairs and I could hear him playing something soft from his room. The CD player and all his CD's were still in there.

Soon after, Carlisle arrived home, shortly followed by Esme. I wanted to tell them before they saw him, give them a little warning. I heard footsteps coming down stairs, Edwards. It was too late for me to warn them, so when Edward came into their line of sight, Esme almost fainted. She held onto the sofa edge, staring at him for a moment before bounding over to him and pulling him into a tight hug. I noticed he flinched at the contact, like he did with me which kind of made me feel better. At least it wasn't just me. Next it was Carlisle, who got the same reaction. Questions followed and he didn't say a large amount as answers. He shrugged a few times and a few tears were shred, but none of them Edwards. He just wanted to come home, was what he told them but I got the feeling there was something else to it. He asked to be excused and returned to his bedroom, not leaving to come and get dinner. He had a bathroom connected to his room and I heard him use it, but apart from that there was no noise from that room.

That was how it stayed for the next two days. He didn't eat with us and didn't leave his room very often. If he did leave the sanctuary of his room he wouldn't talk to us unless he was answering a direct question.

3 days later

I was sitting in my room with Jasper who was allowed to stay over the night. I was in his arms on the bed listening to music. He had one headphone whilst I had the other. I heard the doorbell ring and glanced at the clock on my wall. It was nearly midnight. I raised my eyebrows at Jasper and crept down the stairs, shortly followed by him. I opened the door to see Bella, my best friend at the door wobbling on the spot and giggling.

"Are you drunk!" I asked in shock as I moved out of the way to let her into the house. She tripped and Jasper caught her before steadying her.

"No silly" She said, but it was obvious she was lying. You could smell the alcohol a mile of and she was finding it hard to stand up. Bella wasn't the kind of person to get drunk and it made me laugh to see her insist that she wasn't

"Who gave you alcohol?" I asked trying to keep a straight face.

"Emmet" She said grinning.

"Your brother!" I exclaimed "decided to give you alcohol the night before school and then send you to me?"

"He doesn't know I'm here" She said giggling louder before beginning to stumble her way through the house. I chucked my mobile to Jasper.

"Call Emmet, tell her she is here and he's in trouble. Charlie is going to kill him if he finds out he got her pissed" I instructed and he laughed to himself and agreed. I followed the sound of bella's constant crashed into thing all the way to the Piano room. She had made her way over to the piano which had an Ipod and portable Ipod dock. I figured it was Edwards and rushed forward as she began playing with it. I was too late as music began blasting out and she began to dance clumsily around the room.

I opened my eyes unable to sleep and felt around for the light switch. I fumbled around for a bit before finding it and searched for my Ipod. I looked on the bedside table, my desk, the book case but I couldn't find it. As I focused on where I last had it, I heard music from downstairs. I looked at my watch, confused at who would be playing music at this time. I rolled my eyes and slipped out of my room in order to find out where the noise was coming from. As I reached downstairs, I got the feeling I knew exactly where and what the music was coming from. The piano room was to the side of the house and I had left my Ipod there and someone must have been feeling inquisitive. As I got closer, I found the song coming from the room was in fact Bon Jovi's : Living on a prayer and someone was singing along. Someone whose voice I didn't recognise. I pushed the door and found Alice with her back turned to me and Jasper sitting on the floor in the corner of the room, watching the other girl in amused manor. A girl I had never seen before was dancing around, obviously drunk and singing along to the lyrics which she seemed to have memorised. Usually when I saw a drunk girl, I thought it would be an easy snog, but something about her seemed innocent. As if this was her first time getting drunk and she was enjoying it as if it was the most marvellous thing in the world. I smiled as it got the chorus of the song and she bounced around Alice. Her beautiful brown eyes fell on my and I swear she checked me out. I was only wearing Pj bottoms which hung quite low around my hips. Her glance at me got the attention of both Alice and Jasper who turned to look at me. Jasper used to be my best friend, but times changed and we wouldn't go well together anymore.

"Who that?" I asked breaking the awkward staring.

"Bella" Alice told me as my eyes followed her around the room.

"So why is Bella dancing around the piano room, drunk, at midnight, listening to my Ipod..." I asked trailing of as my eyes widened as her fingered slammed down on the piano keys "And torturing my Piano" I shouted the last bit as I rushed over. I could tell both Alice and Jasper tensed as I did. They didn't know me anymore and weren't sure how I would react. Of course I would never hurt they girl, but I got the worrying feeling that they thought I would. I placed my hands over hers before they could lift and slam down on them again. She looked up at me in an almost mesmerised way her mouth open slightly.

"You have pretty eyes" She said to me and giggled. I lifted her hands away from the keys, ignoring her comment.

"This is mine" I told her firmly. That wasn't me just assuming that because I was the best piano player in the house that It was mine. When I was 14 my adopted parents Esme and Carlisle brought it for me. She grinned at me and nodded an Ok before slipping of the seat and shocking me by grabbing my hands and pulling me into the centre of the room and dancing around me. I eyes her and then glanced at Alice and Jasper. Suddenly, her hand was on my chin pulling my mouth open. I was about to question her but she cut me of

"You know the words, right?" She asked me and I nodded "Then sing!" She pushed my mouth closed and opened it again, to imitate singing.

"Hold on, ready or not you live for the fight when that's all that you've got, whoa were half way there, woah living on a prayer, take my hand and we'll make it I swear. Whoa living on a prayer" She sung before glaring at me.

"Sing" She instructed, but the song was beginning to end.

"Songs ended" I told her and she glare intensified. She stomped over to my Ipod but Alice grabbed her before she could pick another song.

"Time for bed, don't you think?" She asked her as if she was 5 years old. She shook her head walked back over to me, grabbing my hand and pulling me over to a wall, slumping down and pulling me with her. Jasper sat next to me, and Alice sat down between his legs.

"Sorry" She told me "She just showed up after Emmet got her drunk"

"Emmet?" I asked. I had been away for 3 years so she would obviously have new friends.

"Bella's brother" She told me but before she could go into more detail she was cut off by Bella.

"What's your name then" She asked, looking up at me expectantly.

"Edward" I told her and she snorted.

"Ed?" She asked and I shook my head

"Eddie?" She asked and I shook my head again

"Edwardo?" She asked making Alice laugh

"No, Just Edward" I told her firmly, before turning to Alice "Does she get drunk often"

"Nope, first time and she is so funny...." She trailed off "And apparently passed out"

I looked over back at Bella who's head was pressed back on the wall her eyes closed. I slipped my hands under her and lifted her up bridal style. "Your room?" I asked Alice and she nodded.

I placed her gently on the bed, placing the comforter over her and nodded at Alice and Jasper, leaving them to sleep.
