Chapter one is up. I'm half way through chapter two and will probably post it later today. Trust me folks, this is much better than what its replacing. Its not the longest chapter, but its just introducing relationships and attitudes. Chapter two will be much longer, I promise.
Thanks to those who have been nice about the whole situation, I really appreciate the positive feed back.
As for the criticism, I take it all as constructive criticism. I think that everyone has room to improve, so I take it all under consideration.
As always, let me know what you think :)

"I love you Bella." Austin mumbled against my lips.
"I love you too, but I have to go. I'm already late and Emmett is going to come out here looking for me." I hinted
"Oh, alright. Have a good night." He pulled away and smiled.
"I'll see you later." I smiled and walked towards my front door.
As I walked through the door, I saw all of my friends sitting watching a movie and a very angry older brother.
"Isabella Marie Swan where have you been?" Emmett jumped off of the couch as soon as he saw me.
"Austin and I were having sex in the back of his car." I rolled my eyes. "Where do you think, you dope?"
"Bella," he scrubbed his hand over his face. "This isn't funny. I was worried. Oh, and thanks for that mental picture by the way. Gross."
"Well thanks Emmett, but I'm not twelve years old. You don't have to worry about me when I go out." I Shrugged.
I walked over to the couch and plopped down beside Edward since it was the only spot left.
"Hey Berry." Edward smiled at me. Edward was my best friend, and had been since we were in the third grade when he saved me from Mike Newton.
"Hey." I smiled up at him.
"Did you have fun?" He wrapped his arm around me in a hug.
I smiled up at him and nestled my head into his shoulder.
I watched the movie with them for a while until I realized that someone was missing.
"Where is Alice?" I whispered up to Edward.
Edward shrugged his shoulders and turned back to the movie.
"Bella, Rose, are you guys coming?" Alice called. I could hear her bounding down the stairs with her never ending energy.
"I guess." I mumbled as I got off the couch and saw Rose trying to get out of Emmett's grip on her hips as she was sitting in his lap.
"Emmett, let me go." Rose shoved at my brother's arm. They have been dating for a few years, and Emmett still treated her as if they started dating the previous week.
Once Rose got away from Emmett, she and I followed Alice up the stairs.
Once we got to my room, Rose and Alice made themselves comfortable on my bed and turned to me.
"Ok Bella, spill. I want to know everything." Alice crossed her legs and rested her elbows on her knees.
"Well, after diner he took me to the park nearby and we walked around a bit. When we got to the tree where we had our first kiss, he kissed me again and told me he loved me." I smiled at my friends.
"Do you love him back?" Rose asked.
"Yeah. I've been crushing on him since the seventh grade. This is honestly like a fairy-tale." I screamed into a pillow.
"Bella, you need to let it out. When I finally got with Jasper I just stood in the middle of my room and screamed." Alice admitted.
I took a deep breath and just creamed. I must admit, it did feel freeing.
There was some commotion downstairs and what sounded like a herd of elephants on the stairs, before the guys ran into my room holding baseball bats and fire pokers.
"Oh my god, what are you guys doing?" Alice yelled at the three idiots.
"What, what happened?" Jasper's eyes darted around the room.
"Nothing out of the ordinary, Bella spilling about her date with Austin. Why are you here?" Alice asked exasperated.
"Oh, I'm sorry that I came running when I heard my baby sister screaming bloody murder." Emmett rolled his eyes.
"Emmett, you're only eleven months older. We're in the same grade." I grumbled.
"Well, I'm older and you were screaming." Raised informed me.
"What's your point?" Rose rolled her eyes.
"Why?" Edward sighed.
"I was just telling them that Austin and I said our first 'I love you's tonight." I piped up.
"Love? Bella, you guys have been seeing each other for two months. You're already in love?" Emmett raised his eye brow.
"Yeas, I am." I smiled.
"I don't know if I approve of this." Emmett shook his head.
"You don't need to approve, Emmett. He is my boyfriend and I am old enough to make my own decisions. If I wanted to go marry him, or sleep with him, there is nothing that you would be able to do." I informed my brother.
"Is he pressuring you to have sex?" Emmett yelled. "That's it, you're not allowed to see him anymore. I'm going to break his face. Who the hell does he think he is?"
I was furious. "No, he isn't pressuring me into doing anything. Who the hell do you think you are? I can date who ever I want. It is none of your business." My voice kept getting louder and louder.
Emmett opened his mouth to say something else but I held my hand up to stop him. "Emmett, please just leave. I really don't feel like arguing this with you. I was in such a good mood and you've already ruined it. Don't ruin anything else."
"Bella, I'm sorry." He sighed. "It's just that, you're my little sister and I worry about you. I love you so much, and I don't want to see you get hurt."
I smiled and walked up to Emmett and hugged him. "I know, but you can't honestly think that you can protect me from the entire world." I mumbled into his chest.
"I don't think that but, I don't know. I just don't want you to get your heart broken." Emmett shrugged.
"I won't I promise." I pulled away. "You know that I love you big bro, right?"
"I do." Emmett smiled and pulled me into another hug.
When we pulled back from our hug, I notices that everyone was staring at us.
"What?" Emmett and I said at the same time.
"Well," Alice started, "you two just had a huge fight then apologized and forgave each other all under a minute." She tilted her head to the side.
"Oh, oops." I smiled and we all started laughing.
I noticed that Edward was standing in the corner of the room, not really doing anything, so I walked over to him.
"Hey Bella." Edward smiled.
"What's wrong?" I asked, stepping closer to him.
Edward closed his eyes for a moment and shook his head. "Nothing, everything is fine."
I looked at his skeptically, searching his eyes for a hint of what was bothering him.
"Alright, but you're telling me later." I sighed.
Edward shrugged and walked over to talk to Emmett.
"Alright, let's go finish that movie. Everyone out of my room." I pointed to the door.
Everyone shuffled out of my room and down the stairs. We took our spots around the couch and picked a horror movie to watch for the rest of the night.
