Keeping up with the Cullens

2005.

It's the year 2005. Two years have passed since they moved to the small town of Forks, Washington.

Thalia admits that she loves the small town more than the city. It's been a peaceful, pleasant, blissful stay.

A year after they moved, in the summer of 2004, Carlisle Cullen finally gained the courage to ask Thalia Elie Bennet to be his beloved wife, and they got married privately with a limited number of guests.

The Denali Coven, the 'cousins' of the Cullens. Thalia finally meets the five vampires that Carlisle has been telling her that have the same lifestyle as them.

He told her that the three blondes, Tanya, Katrina, and Irina, had a hard time changing their diet from human blood to animal blood.

They were known to be the 'original succubus.' The sisters had discovered their conscience slowly. In the end, it was their fondness for human men that turned them against the slaughter.

Eleazar and Carmen, the couple of the coven. Eleazar is an ex-member of the Volturi before Carlisle arrives in Italy.

The man was positioned in the guards with his gift of ability identification. He was proven helpful by the three kings. However, that all changed when he met Carmen.

His loyalty to the Volturi was tested, and after the conflicts, he chose the love of his life, leaving the Volturi Coven, and much to Aro's dismay, he let Eleazar go.

The Nomads, Garret, Peter, and Charlotte. Carlisle insisted that his old friend Garret come to his wedding.

He met Garret in Yorktown in 1781, near the edge of battle with his 'brother' in his arms, that needed Carlisle's aid.

Jasper, with Carlisle's permission, invited his best friends, Peter and Charlotte, it was a great event to catch up on what was happening in the South, and if they had any news of his beloved betrothed, sadly, it was the news that he had known before.

Carlisle sent an invitation to the three kings and a letter to inform them of their newest member.

However, they sent their regards and sincerest apologies for not being able to come on their old friend's big day.

In addition to their apologies, they have sent Thalia a necklace as a sign of welcoming her to the life of immortality.

After the wedding, the newlyweds went on their honeymoon with a very secretive Carlisle on where their destination should be.

It turns out Carlisle Cullen gifted Thalia her own island named, "Isle Elie," on the coast of Rio De Janeiro. To say that the brunette was surprised is an understatement. She was thrilled and speechless. If she could cry tears of joy, she would've.

The island is breathtaking, with vast jungles, parrots, dolphins, and tropical fish in its warm waters and beaches with sparkling white sand.

There is a house in the middle of the coast planned and constructed by his truly, Christopher Davis, and is designed and fully furnished by Esme Cullen.

And it is finally safe to say that Thalia Elie Bennet is officially Thalia Elie Bennet-Cullen.

Not much has happened in Forks, and Thalia couldn't be more thankful. With the low death rate in the small town, she didn't find herself screaming.

It also came to their knowledge that Thalia could fully control her screams. She wouldn't struggle to take in the loud scream of upcoming death, she'll only get a bearable headache caused by her ancestors, and that Thalia is also a hybrid, a banshee, and a vampire, and much to Carlisle's dismay, the Volturi took an interest of the Cullen Coven's newest member.

The presence of the Cullens causes Quileute Sam Uley, the great-grandson of Levi Uley, to become a shape-shifter.

He was furious to know that the adored family of the town caused his shift. As more Quileutes begin to phase, Sam Uley creates the Uley pack.

After Sam Uley ended his relationship with Leah Clearwater, the reason is that Sam imprinted on Leah's cousin Emily Young.

After Emily visited her cousin Leah and Sam shifted to his human form, the man suddenly imprinted on his girlfriend's cousin.

Emily felt like she was betraying her cousin, so she pushed Sam away from her, and that made Sam forcibly phase into his wolf form and hurt Emily by accident, causing three large claw marks on the woman's face.

Sam ran towards Cullen's treaty line and asked for Carlisle's aid. The reason is that Sam didn't know how to explain to the doctors how the woman gained three large claw marks on her face, so he resulted on asking Carlisle Cullen for help, and after that, Carlisle gained Sam Uley's respect.

The family decided to have their separate cabins at the back of their residence for the couples of the family to gain some privacy, resulting in Christopher and Esme's plan and construction of three small cabins, one for Thalia and Carlisle, one for Rosalie and her wife and one for Christopher and Esme.

The land that they are currently residing on is quite large, with a forest as their backyard, and more possible cabins can be constructed since they are still expecting new members of the Coven for Edward, Alice, Emmett's significant other, and Jasper's betrothed.

The only vampires that are currently residing in the main house are Edward, Alice, Emmett, and Jasper, with their separate rooms. It was a good decision to have separate households. One house full of 9 vampires isn't exactly an ideal situation.

And in that two years, Carlisle's and Thalia's relationship grew strong. Their connection with each other is like no other.

The other knows when the significant other needs their privacy, the other knows when one is uncomfortable when surrounded by a group of people, like when a group of parents surrounded Thalia.

Carlisle came to school to get an anxious Thalia out of the premises, Thalia has a fear of being surrounded by large crowds, and the brunette thought that after her change, that her fear grew away, yet she was mistaken.

All in all, that was what happened for the past two years with the Cullens.

And Thalia Elie Bennet-Cullen couldn't be even happier and grateful for having a large lovable family.
