Disclaimer: Stephenie Meyers came up with all of the characters in this story except Lilly. Who only appears in this chapter because she's a bimbo and her only purpose was to make Bella jealous. Which she did. And I can do that, because I created lilly.

A/N: I loooove Carlisle

That was the last straw. I could no longer suffer the torment of watching the two of them. Even though Edward had repeatedly told me that nothing was going on between him and Lilly, it drove me insane. Her long red hair that seemed to curl perfectly, and those eyes. How in the world could I compete with eyes like those?

"Bella, Love, you're doing it again…you really should stop that you know." I glared at Jasper, wishing that for once he would mind his own business. All I received in response was a small smirk. "He's tutoring. You know he'd much rather be spending time with you, then some bimbo cheerleader."

This caused me to smile, but I wasn't sure if it was because I was amused, or Jasper was messing with my mood again. "Well, he's been tutoring her an awful lot lately…it's frustrating. I me-"

"Oh hush Bella, after finals are over you won't have to worry about it any more. She'll be on her way back to good old Arkansas." I turned and looked at Alice, and felt my self-esteem drop another notch. There she was in a strapless black dress that laced up in the front with white ribbons. If I had tried to wear something like that…well…I never would try to wear something like that. "Besides, shouldn't you be worrying about the next hunting trip? It's only your second time out, and I want you to be able to concentrate while running."

I had almost forgotten about the trip that was planned for the following night. It had been almost a month since Edward had changed me…he really had no choice. Carlisle even told him that I wouldn't have survived either way. It was my own fault for not listening when Edward told me to stay out of the woods... "I know Alice, I know…" I let out a long, over dramatic sigh as I pulled my hair up into a twist, and walked up to the front of the library. Watching the two of them was making me sick, well…it would if I were still able to regurgitate.

After what seemed like hours, Lilly finally closed her Algebra text book and headed towards the exit. I saw Edward walking to me and let a grin spread across my face as I pulled him close to me, wrapping my arms around his neck. I let out a small laugh as the librarian looked at us with disdain. Oh well…I thought. She'll get over it. I leaned in to kiss him, sliding my left hand down to his thigh. 1...2...3..

"Miss, I'm afraid you two will have to leave…this is a public library. There are other people studying…" Edward and I both glanced around the room. There was a cat hopping from bookshelf to bookshelf, and a napping elderly man. No one else. I looked at the librarian, my grin getting even wider.

"Why yes M'am. We'll certainly get out of your way." I said politely while pulling Edward out the door and towards his car. I smiled as he realized what I was thinking, not by reading my mind, but by my expression. Now that I was changed, he didn't have to be as careful with me. Unfortunately, my clumsiness didn't evaporate with the transformation, but luckily it was less noticeable.

He opened his mouth slightly to speak, but was unable to get the words out before I had leaned over and kissed him. I felt his body tense up a bit more out of curiosity. He still wasn't used to me being as forward as I am now. I kissed him a bit deeper before he smiled and placed the key in the ignition of his stupid Volvo. "You're really nervous…" I stated.

"Only because I have no reason to be gentle anymore…" He replied with a devlish grin.

"Oh Edward, you never had to be gentle…honest. I'm sure I could have handled it…" I replied as he took my hand in his. I was surprised at the false warmth radiating from it. That's when I noticed his eyes…they were the weirdest shade of purple. His eyes had never been purple…ever. "Darling…you're eyes…" I whispered. He just squeezed my hand gently and continued driving. I watched as the speedometer reached 130.

"I wouldn't waste any time worrying about it Bella, I'm sure they'll go back to normal in awhile…" I tried to smile, but failed miserably. He could tell that I was uneasy about the sudden change in his appearance. "I love you…" He said, trying to distract me. All I did was nod. I remained quiet until we reached the house. Alice was already there waiting for me, her eyes told me that she already knew what wrong with Edward. I slowly stepped out of the car, not waiting for him to open the door.

Alice walked over to me, embracing me as we headed into the house. "It's ok love, I'll explain once we get inside…" she cooed, trying to calm me down. In the past few months, Alice had become my best friend, my sister, and my confidant…there was no one I trusted more than I trusted her. As we reached her room, she sat me down on the bed and made me look at her. Her eyes were the lightest gold, yet what I was staring at wasn't the color. It was the emotion, she seemed scared. Terrified.

"Alice? Tell me what's wrong with Edward!" I yelled, not meaning to raise my voice. I could tell that I was forgiven. "Please Alice…please…."

"He'll be fine in a few days," she started, "but, you have to be careful. Edward must have drank tainted blood while hunting the last time. When that happens it can throw the entire body out of wack, making the vampire suffer. It's happened to all of us at least once, mostly when we first changed. I was surprised that Edward couldn't tell the blood was tainted."

"Will he be all right?" I asked in a soft whisper. The thought of my beloved in agonizing pain frightened me, more than I would admit. Alice nodded slowly, her brow still furrowed in thought.

"He'll be fine, like I said. It's just going to be a difficult few days for him. He needs to get all of the tainted blood out of his body…" I nodded my head. I kissed her once on by cheeks and headed downstairs to check on Edward. As I walked down the hallway I felt a calming sensation that started at my feet and worked its way up to my brain. "Thank you Jasper…" I whispered as I continued walking, knowing full well that he had heard me. That's when I saw him. The one person I had never expected to see at the Cullen's residence.

Billy.
