(A/N)It may be a little rushed in the beginning, but it isn't very important in the first couple chapters. I will be longer and will slow down as the story progresses
Chapter 1
I was running through the woods, looking for him. "Edward! Please don't leave!" I screamed so loud, my voice began to hurt. I wasn't aware of the time, because I was so far in. All of a sudden, I was met by the face of Victoria. "Well well Isabella, it's time for you to die." With that, she grabbed me by the throat and leaned down...
I woke up in my bed screaming. A cold sweat covered my face. I have been having that same nightmare everyday since he left me. It has already been seven weeks since that terrible day in the forest. I have barely been able to sleep for fear of having that dream. Charlie had stopped checking in on me. It has been a common occurance, routined in a way. I looked over at my alarm clock to see what time it was. The glowing light stated that it was 5:30am. It was a monday, so I had school. I sighed knowing that no more sleep would come, so I got up from bed and walked across my room to grab my toiletries and a change of clothes. I opened my door and walked to the bathroom. When I got to the bathroom I began to get this weird feeling in my body, something was different. I didn't let it bother me and ignored it and began my routine once more. I got into the shower turning the knob on and letting the hot water flow down my aching muscles. I lathered my hair in my favorite strawberry shampoo, enjoying the intoxicating aroma. It made me feel slightly relaxed and a lot better than I have been since he left me. I rinsed my hair, turned off the knob and got out of the shower. Towel drying my hair and body, I put my clothes on and brushed through my hair. I brushed my teeth before heading back to my room to hand up my towel and grabbed my belongings for school.
I walked down the stairs tripping on the last few stairs, but instead of the usual stone cold arms that I loved and enjoyed, I was met with the cold damp wooden floor. I sighed and got back up and walked into the kitchen. I opened one of the cupboards and grabbed a granola bar to eat. Charlie had already left for work so I was home alone to just sit and think. Which was something I tried to avoid, because every time I did think, I would end up thinking about him and the fact that he had left me. Once I finished with my granola bar, I looked at the clock to see what the time was. '6:53am, I should probably start heading to school' I thaught to myself
I got into my truck, pulled out of my driveway and headed towards school. When I pulled into the parking lot and opened my door, I was once again met with the obnoxious face of the vile Mike Newton. "hello Bella"he said to me. This was something that happened every day. He just never got it when I tried to ignore him or when I would give him glares. He was just so persistant. Ever since he left, Mike has been thinking that he would be able to date me, that I would go to him with open arms. But I never did, and he never stopped. "Go away Mike, I am not in the mood for you right now." I said in a calm but deadly voice. "oh common Bella, Edward was no good for you! You should be with me instead, I am much better than that ungreatful jerk" something inside of me snapped and I slapped him really hard across the face. "Michael Newton, If you ever talk about Him or his family again, I will personally hunt you down and KILL YOU!!! So just get the hell away from me Okay Mike, Just jump off the face of the earth for all I care." By the time I finished my rant, we had quite a bit of people staring at the scene around us. I glared at them and walked into the building, people staring after me. When I got to my locker and grabbed my things, a loud thud came from next to me. I sighed knowing that someone was about to yell at me for something. I looked over and there stood Jessica Stanley. 'typical' I thaught. Ever since Edward left me, all she and Lauren have been doing was saying rude comments about me. One day, she spread a rumor that said that the reason why Edward and is family left, was because I threatened them all that if Edward didn't go out with me and show it to everyone else in the school, that I would kill him and his family.
When I heard that rumor, I laughed so hard I began to cry. Like I---a mere human--- could hurt indestructable vampires.
I pictured myself stabbing Emmett and the knife bending on his braun. I laughed even more. Ever since that day, people avoided me. They thaught that I was insane. I guess that in a way I was. After all I did date a vampire. One that could have drained me dry at any second and there was absolutely nothing that I would be able to do about it. When I looked at Jessica she gave me a hard glare and began yelling at me "Listen bitch, I don't ever want you to talk to Mike ever again! It's bad enough that you made Edward leave - I winced at his name - but I don't want you contaminating Mike, He's mine you hear that bitch! so stay the fuck away." I swear, she never knows when to shut up. She just talks too much.
I smiled at her, her face looked shocked at my reaction but she did her very best to hold her ground. "Listen, Jessica. In what alternate universe would you think I would ever have any attraction to that empty headed boy named Mike Newton. And if you even payed attention to the words I was screaming a moment ago, you would know by now that I don't want to talk to him, I don't want to see him, I don't want to feel his presence within a fifty yard radius from me. So stop your damn bitching before I slap you too." She looked at me dumbfounded and I just turned on my heel and stalked of to my first period. By the time second period rolled around, everyone began talking about me again. I just ignored it all and tried to pay attention to the class. As I was writing the formula to an equation on the board, that weird feeling came back again, only it intensified. It began to get more painful. I excused myself from class and got into my truck and headed home. The pain kept on getting worse and worse every second. By the time I got into the house and layed on the couch, I was screaming and writhing in pain. What was happening to me? My bones felt like they were shattering and then reforming becoming harder every time. My skin felt like it was being stretched across my body, becoming harder and smoother. My eyes burned like pepper spray was sprayed into them, my heart was pounding so hard in my chest, it felt as if it would burst out of my body at any moment. It kept getting worse as I heard the door open and Charlie gasp. "Oh no, it has already begun." I was confused, what has already begun. I opened my mouth to ask the question, but instead of words, what came out of my mouth was a blood curdling scream. The last thing I saw was Charlie's horrified expression before I slipped into unconciousness...
The pain, which felt like it would go on for eternity, abruptly stopped. I opened my eyes and sat up. I found I was in my room, laying on my bed. I took in my surroundings and gasped. Everything seemed so clear. I could see every speck of dust in the air, I could see every fiber on my blanket. I could even smell different things in the air. I smelled trees, dirt, flowers, rain, but what baffled me even more was this sweet smell, it seemed pleasent, almost alluring but nothing overpowering. I heard footsteps and then saw Charlie as he opened the door. That was where the smell was comming from...it was his blood.Am I a vampire? I looked into his face and he had a sympathetic expression in his eyes. "There is something that I should tell you. Something that we need to disguss." he said to me in an emotionless tone. He then sat down on the rocking chair and began to speak...
