Bella walked out her front door, sniffing the foggy, cold air, and set out towards her truck. This was her new day at school as a vampire. Everything about Forks was the same, except for Bella. The new girl was just like everyone else. She was treated just like Bella was treated on her first day not too long ago. Same set of friends. Bella greeted her and found out her name was Amber. "You are so beautiful!" She said with wide eyes, looking Bella up and down.
Bella laughed and sighed. "Thanks." And then she whispered under her breath so Amber couldn't hear. "Maybe you will be like me someday." Bella looked over at Edward, who was staring at both of them from his table. The look on his face meant that he had heard her. Bella gave him a grin and turned back to her friends at the table. She wanted to spend as much time as she can with these people, the friends she had ever since she moved here, until she was forced to leave them. It was only a matter of time.
The bell rang for the next class. Amber and Edward were both in that class. Bella snorted under her breath. Of course Edward would change his classes and the seating arrangements. They sat side by side in the very back. It was hard to pay attention, knowing she was going to be in this same grade for eternity. The classes didn't fly by like she hoped. Carlisle's face kept appearing in her mind. He had stayed with her overnight, what else could she do since she didn't have to sleep anymore? Carlisle promised her that they will go out and do more once Charlie stops coming to see if she was okay. He was worried, seeing that his daughter had turned very pale and doesn't seem to be getting any color at all. He thought maybe taking her to the beach but Bella threw a fit.
She knew she had to tell Charlie someday. If she could. It was either that or pretend she was dead. But she didn't know what could be worse. Him knowing she was a vampire or that she was dead. She chose vampire though, hopes of maybe getting to see him still.
"Bella! It's time to get home! Aren't you excited to see Carlisle soon?" Alice danced beside her. Bella just noticed school had ended. That seemed fast. Alice's car was parked the farthest from everyone elses. "Want to stop by the hospital and see Carlisle?" She smiled. Jasper came out of nowhere and embraced her. Bella nodded, looking away from the couple. They were at the hospital in a matter of seconds and Bella walked, wishing she could run but Carlisle told her not to risk it, to the front desk and properly asked for Dr. Cullen.
"Is it an emergency?" The girl behind the counter asked, looking Bella up and down, not seeing anything wrong with her at all.
"Uh no but--" Bella started.
"Then I'm sorry, he is busy at the moment. He will be free in about three hours." The girl looked down at her paperwork, ignoring whatever Bella had to say.
Bella turned and walked outside. Alice must of read her mind. "Who cares what Carlisle said, lets sneak in." She said but stopped after she knew what Bella's answer was. She didn't want to make him mad. It was better to just wait three hours. It wasn't that bad, was it?
* 3 hours later *
It was bad... Bella was pacing back and forth in front of the hospital, drawing attention from the people coming in and out. Alice kept trying to change her mind but Bella refused. "How am I gonna last every day like this? How do you do it? Oh wait, you are almost always with Jasper since you both can go to school together." Bella said.
Alice looked down. "There are times when I can't be with him for more than days. It is hard." Jasper scooted closer to her, comforting her. "Carlisle is coming out now."
A few seconds later, the doors slid open and out walked Carlisle. Bella sighed with relief. "Sorry for the wait. Maybe I should cut back on a few hours, it's not like I need any more money." He said, hugging Bella around the waist but then noticed a few people staring in disgust and let go. "Lets get home. I think Edward wants us to meet his new friend."
Bella decided to go with Carlisle in his car so they all met back at their house. "I can't believe this! Are you serious? Vampires? This can't be possible." We walked in to see Amber staring wide eyed at Edward who was trying to calm her. "No wonder you are all so pale... and cold." She looked over at us but didn't show any sign that she was scared.
"It's okay. This is my family. Carlisle, Bella, Alice, and Jasper. Rosalie and Emmett are suppose to arrive soon. Everyone, this is Amber." Edward introduced everyone without taking his eyes off of her.
"It's nice to meet you." Carlisle spoke first. Everyone nodded in agreement, Rosalie and Emmett appearing at their side. Rosalie already knew what was happening before it even did and had told Emmett.
Amber didn't say anything for a moment. "So... why me?" She choked a laugh. "I'm just a normal person. Nothing compared to any of you." She looked at Edward and blushed.
"Not to me." Edward started babbling on and on how she meant so much to him. Everyone started to scoot away. Carlisle led Bella upstairs, Alice and Jasper followed.
"Things will turn alright. She really likes Edward. She is just really shocked about this whole situation. Maybe he should of waited a bit." Alice said. Carlisle nodded in agreement. "But who knows, only time will tell us." She walked into what looked like her room, Jasper following.
Carlisle took Bella to his room. "I think it's time you tell Charlie." Bella was about to protest but he held a finger to her lips. "It will turn out alright. He may be broken at first but it has to be done. I'll be with you the whole time." He took her in his arms and kissed her forhead. She sighed, trying to catch her breath, and nodded. "And once we get through that, we can get married." His hand slid up to her head, moving it back, and kissing her on the lips.
That had done it. It gave all the confidence Bella needed. "Lets get this over with then." She said, Carlisle smiled. He took her by the hand and they ran all the way to Charlie's house. "Dad! Are you home?" She called out, he was in the living room. "I need to talk to you. It is very important and it will change both of our lives forever."
He gave both of them a weird look, thinking what possibly could involve Dr. Carlisle Cullen. Then he thought of something. "Oh Bella. Please don't tell me you have cancer or something." He looked really worried, hoping this isn't what she was about to say.
Bella shook her head and he seemed to relax. "No dad... this is worse." She let the words sink in but he was still confused. "You have to promise me you will still love me no matter what. This can't be told to anyone."
"Not that anyone would believe you..." Carlisle joined in. "If you decide to anyways."
Charlie still didn't have any clue what was going on. "Dad, you may not believe us at first but we can prove it."
He looked back and forth at both of them. "Believe what?" The didn't say anything. "Yes, I will love you no matter what. Don't even think I could ever stop loving you."
Bella choked back a sob. "We are vampires and I have been one since a few days ago." With that, Carlisle ran over to the other side of Charlie to show him it was true, which looked to him as if Carlisle had teleported. The next few minutes felt like a blur. Charlie was having a heart attack but with the help of Carlisle, he was fine in the next few hours.
"It is better if he stayed in bed for awhile to give him some time to think." Carlisle said. Bella looked helplessly down at her father, who looked so weak, and couldn't believe what she had done.
"I'm so sorry dad." She said. Charlie just stared up at her, unable to say anything.
"Your dad will be okay. He will forgive you. Just give him time to recover." Carlisle said, pulling Bella away to her room. All the pain she felt was gone once he closed the door and embraced her, and she knew, everything was going to be alright. When Carlisle said it would be, she knew he was right. With that, she leaned up and kissed him as passionately as she could.
