Raine walked to the mansion knowing Arkan would be there in a minute. She walked inside and called out to see if anyone was home. Raine decided to text the entire family. Hey everyone, come to the mansion asap, Arkan and me have something important to tell everyone. Love Raine. She pressed send and put her cell away. She sat on the dining table and waited for everyone to come home.

Arkan walked into the mansion and found Raine sitting on the dining room table. He just smiled and shook his head as he walked over to her and kissed her. He knew that she was just as excited as he was to tell the family. "Did you let the family know that we were here waiting on them?" He asked her as he pulled away from the kiss and wrapped his arms around her.
Arkan knew that his brother's and sister's would be happy for him, after all they all had the love's of their lives and would want the same for their newest brother. He wondered how long it would be before they all arrived at the mansion.

Raine kissed him back and nodded. "Yes i have send them all a message, but i dont know if any of them will show up when i write it" Raine said and sighed, she knew too well that the cullen didnt accept her totally as family and that made her sad. Once again the idea of leaving Forks seemed like a good idea. "Maybe Jasper did the right thing, leaving Forks and the Cullens, it seems to me as if im not accepted in this family." Raine said and leaned into the comfort of Arkans arms and waited, hoping the rest of the family would show up.

Arkan looked at Raine confused. The Cullen's had never been anything but nice to her. "Raine, the Cullen's are your family now and they will be happy that I am happy. I know that this is hard for you, but please don't say things like Jasper was right to leave." Arkan knew that though he was the newest member of the Cullen family, he was new to the family and the bonds had not been formed yet like they were with the rest of the family, but he was not going to abondon them for that. How could Arkan ever think of leaving when Carlisle had given him life so that he could be with Raine. Arkan knew that if it was not for Carlisle, they would not be together. "Always remember Raine that it was Carlisle that gave me the gift of immortality at your request. He did this for us." Arkan told Raine. He hated to have to have this conversion with her, but he knew that his family would accept her like they did him. Arkan was fine with the fact that the family had their own lives and things to deal with, but when the family was needed they were there for each other. That was what a family was about.

Raine sighed. She knew Arkan was right, and she shouldnt think those thoughts. It would probably help if someone showed up soon, she really wanted everyone to know soon so Arkan and her could go on their honeymoon. "I know, your right, i guess im just stressed lately, too many things has happend, but also alot of good things. I just wish the family would get here soon, its weird its taking them so long, normally they would come right away." Raine said and sighed low. She would relax more when everyone would know, and when Arkan and she was on the honeymoon. She leaned in to Arkan, feelings his body and smelled his lovely scent, nothing was more precious to her than him.

Arkan felt Raine jump into his arms and he felt her tight. Raine was his life, and his one true love. Arkan was thinking about the family and the things that Raine said while they waited for the Cullen's to show up. As Arkan stood there, he realized that though he loved the Cullen family, Raine was right that they were not truely part of the family. Arkan knew that though Carlisle had created him, he would never be as close to them as they were to each other. Arkan had chosen to keep his last name and not to become a true Cullen. Arkan knew that all of the Cullen's carried one of two name's.
Arkan was debating thing heavily as he waited from the Cullen's to show up. He was thinking of what he wanted to do. Though Arkan loved the Cullen's as family, did he truely think of them as parents and siblings. If he was being honest he would have to say no. He thought about the Denali's and realized that he was more like them in relation to the Cullen's. He loved them but more as an extented family. More like cousin's, surprizingly that make Arkan fell better. He knew that he could live a life away from them and not fell guilty for it. He would always be close to them and happy to call them family but not in the sense of being completely devoted to them, like them were to each other.
Arkan looked down at Raine, knowing that he would have to talk to the other's about this decision, but he was sure that they would not have a problem with it. Arkan also knew that they would always have the tree house and be a part of the family in a way. "Raine, love I am sure that the others will be here soon. I know that they are all busy and that we will just have to wait for them."

Raine saw the thoughtfull look in his eyes, she knew that he wanted to be with the family, and so did she, she just needed to feel completly home with them. "You look so thoughtfull my love, what is it? If its about my idea of moving away i regret it, i wanna stay, they are our family and in time the bonds between us and them will grow strong, all it takes is some time, and thats a thing we have alot of. " Raine said and smiled to her husbond.
Raine decided to text the family again, both Cullens, Hales and Blacks, she wanted them all there. Everyone, Me and Arkan need you at the mansion now, we have something important to tell you that cannot be said in a text. Raine Raine pressed send and held her cell in her hand.
She hoped they would show up soon so she and Arkan could go on their honeymoon. Just me and Arkan, all alone and nothing to bother us. Time to really enjoy eachother and talk. Raine thought to herself. When she thought about it she didnt really know much about her husbond except that she loved him more than anything, and that was all that mattered.

Post by Renesmee Cullen-Black on Jun 23, 2009 0:19:56 GMT -5
Renesmee was at home tending to the baby when she heard her phone go off. The ringing noise woke Alicia up, so she had to calm her daughter down and get her back to sleep. When the second text message went off some time later, she tensed up and looked toward her sleeping child, hoping it wouldn't wake her again. Fortunately, Alicia slept through it the second time. Breathing a sigh of relief, Renesmee looked at the text message from Raine and quickly tapped out a reply.
Sorry...I'm with Alicia and she's sleeping. Someone else will fill me in later.
Once that was sent, she went about finishing up some laundry for herself, Jacob, and the baby. Now that there were three in the family, there was a little more work to do. Sitting next to Alicia's bassinet, she began to fold a few blankets and onesies, along with some of Jacob's shorts and sweatpants. Looking over at her sleeping daughter, she thought of how scared she had been in the beginning when she first learned of her pregnancy. But now, she could not imagine life without her little one.

Arkan smiled at how easily Raine was able to read him. Arkan was thinking about the family and were they fit into it. "Raine, I think that you are right in the sense that we do not fit into the family, like the others do. I do not think that we could ever be as close to them and live in the same house like they do. I think that we are more like cousins to them. I love the Cullen's but I am not devoted to them, like they are to each other. I will never care about them more than I do you." Arkan said to her. He knew that he would never be a Cullen in that sense. He would always be a North and just a cousin to the Cullens.
Arkan felt happy in the knowledge of his place in the family. He would always be there when they needed him as he was loyal to the royal family, but he would have his life away from the family as well. Arkan knew that he and Raine would have eternity, to built the bonds of cousins, like the Denali's have. "I think that our place is more like Tanya and her family. We are family but only in that we consider ourselves as cousins." Arkan spoke the last words with a smile on his face. He wanted Raine to know that he was ok with this decision.

Edward was in the woods scanning thoughts for signs of trouble when he caught Raine and Arkan's thoughts at the mansion. Edward had turned his phone off so that he would not be disturbed, but he knew that he was needed at the mansion. Edward took off running back to the mansion and sent a text of his own to Bella.
Bella, love. Can you meet me at the mansion? We are needed there. - Edward
As he entered the house, he saw them standing in the dinning room. "Congratulation!" He said to them as he went to Raine and hugged her. He knew that they were happy together. "I am happy for both of you. When are you leaving for the honeymoon?" He asked them. Edward knew from Arkan's thoughts where they were going. Edward also knew that Arkan had changed his mind on where he belonged in the family. Edward could tell that Arkan was happy with his life now and knew that Arkan would always be close just not as close as his siblings. Edward knew that there were other's that Carlisle had created that did not feel the need to stay with the family and at least Arkan still wanted to be part of the family, just not as a sibling. Edward could respect him for that.
Edward also knew that price that a child of Carlisle could face for betraying the family. Edward knew that with Will's death, Crystal would be wanting revenge. Edward would have to face his sister and kill her. This was not something that Edward looked forward to, but he knew that it had to be done.
"I think that by the time you return from your honeymoon, things should be calm around here and back to normal." Edward knew that the tention in the family was worring Raine and he did not want either of them the leave for good.

Raine was caught in her own thoughts when Edward suddenly showed up and said congratulations. "Ohh hi there Edward, god i hate you can read thoughts, and please dont concentrate on mine, id like my thought for now to be private. But thanks, and we are gonna leave as we tell the rest of the family. Raine said and felt her phone buss on. It was a message from Nessie, her beloved best friend, and niece in some ways. "Nessie isnt coming, she is alone with Alicia and she is sleeping, someone will have to fill her in later" Raine said and sighed. She waved her hand and a chair went to Edward site to let him sit down. Sit, your stressing me with that standing, sit down, relax, you wont get taller standing up Raine thought to Edward. She then just sat there with a little hint of sadness and concern in her face, but quickly made her face expression less to not worry anyone. Raine waited for the rest to show up wich she hoped would be soon, if they didnt show up Edward would have to tell them, She was impatient to get going.

Rose was out shopping as usual when she got the text that she was needed at the house. Rose paid for her stuff and headed back to the mansion from Port Angeles. She flew through the streets in her red convertable, like only a vampire could. She was back at the house in no time. She parked the car and carried her bags into the house. As she entered she noticed that only Edward, Arkan and Raine were there. Rose sat the bags down and walked over the her brothers side and turned to look at Arkan and Raine. "What's the emergency?" Rose asked as her looked around the mansion for signs of trouble.

"I don't know why the phone companies make these cell phones so much more complicated as the years go by it is almost like they don't want the customers to know to use them." Esme sighed as she entered the house. "I am so, so sorry I was out then my cell phone when off and I did not know when it was ringing, Emmett was fooling with it and changed it to a song instead of the beeping it was before." Esme sighed she did not want Raine and Arkan thinking she was ignoring their messages .Esme wished she still had the same cell phone had in 2005 but they only last so long before they malfunction. " So what was the reason we were needed at the mansion, I was off buying gifts for Alicia."

Raine smiled to Rosalie and Esme coming into the mansion. "Its isnt an emergency, its something me and Arkan need to tell you as soon as the rest of the family arrives. so sit down and relax" Raine said and chuckled. She held Arkans hand, looking up at him. Somehow the eternity dont seem so bad knowing ill be with the one i love, Raine thought to herself. She looked around in the room, this place was allmost feeling like home, she sure would miss it if they left. Deep down Raine didnt want to leave Forks at all, after all this was the place her parents had shared their love, and created Raine. Raine sighed peacefully and breathed in the atmosphere.

Edward laughed at Raine's comment about his mind reading. He never concentrated on anyones. "I will try my best not to Raine. Yours are not the only thoughts that gave it away though." He smiled looking at Arkan. He knew that the thoughts were going through Arkan's head were for him to read. He knew that Arkan was looking for guidance. Edward was not sure how to answer him. Edward knew that the family was set in their ways and that Arkan was right to be concerned. Edward finally decided that Arkan was thinking right and looked at him as he spoke. "I think that you are right in your line of thought Arkan, but we can discuss that later." Edward said to him.
Edward then heard his sister Rosalie come into the house. "Hey Rose, what all did you buy this time?" He said as he watched her sat the bags down. He was smiling and waiting for an answer when his mom came in complaining about her phone. Edward smiled at her, he knew that she knew how to work her phone. She was just as good as the rest of them with electronics. "Hey mom." He said to her as he walked over to hug her.
