Chapter 11:

Gift

(Bella's POV)

My sight went blurry, my hand shot out, and I saw the shape of the giant bear rise up onto it's hind legs. How I did it, though, was beyond me.

I was upset. Not only with the fact of not knowing, but because I knew for a fact that Edward was just as confused as I was. I wanted to tell him everything, but for this one thing, I had no answer.

I made a sharp movement with my hands, and the bear went limp, dead I imagined. It fell to the ground, lifeless and motionless.

It's blood called out to me, begging me to drink it. So I went over to the dead bear and bit it's neck. I drank until it was dry.

Then I looked at Edward, and his concerned, confused face made me sick inside. I didn't have an answer. I couldn't tell him how it happened.

So I ran away, sick with myself. What had happened to me? How did I kill the bear without even touching it?

I couldn't even answer my own questions.

I could feel Edward's presence behind me. I could hear every footstep he took.

I stopped and fell to my knees, dry sobs ripping out of my chest. These were worse than crying. Nothing came out.

Edward's arms were around me in an instant, his face in my hair.

"What's the matter, love?" He asked, worry pouring from his velvet voice.

"You're confused." I said, not really sure why this upset me. "I want to be able to tell you how I did what I just did. But I can't."

"Oh, love." Edward soothed, kissing the top of my head. "You must be so confused. A lot more confused than I am. Don't worry, Bella. Carlisle will figure this out, I'm sure of it."

I looked up at him. He understood everything. He was so amazing. Even as a vampire, he was more amazing and perfect than I was.

I nodded, and he scooped me up into his arms, still as careful as ever. I wondered why he was still so careful with me, but I didn't ask why. Not now. Too much was on both of our minds.

He ran us back to the hospital, slowing down as we got to the edge of the woods. He set me down on my feet and took my hand.

"I love you." He said, totally random, but cute all the same. I smiled up at him.

"I love you more." I told him.

He shook his head and kissed my cheek.

"Impossible." He whispered in my ear.

I was about to respond, but he started walking and so did I. We didn't say anything while we walked the length of the parking lot at a normal pace.

It was slightly irritating to walk slow. I wanted to be a blur and just appear at the entrance of the hospital in a second, but I couldn't. I had to act as normal as possible.

We walked to Carlisle's office, Edward's hand still in mine. Carlisle looked up at us and smiled.

"Hello Edward, Bella." He said, standing up.

"Carlisle." Edward said, his voice anxious. "Bella has a gift."

Carlisle's eyebrow's raised.

"Really?" He asked. "What kind of gift?"

"That's the problem. We have no idea."

"What happened?" Carlisle asked me.

"I uh..." I stuttered. "I kind of just...moved my hand and the bear moved, too. And then I moved my hand like this..." I showed him the hand motion I had used to kill the bear. "And it...died."

Carlisle looked astonished. Like he had been shocked and frozen in place.

"That's not it." Edward said, breaking Carlisle out of his trance. "When she was in a hospital, Carlisle, she wasn't even tempted to drink anyone's blood. It was as if there were no humans here."

That came as a shock to me. I didn't remember any need to drink a human's blood. I didn't even remember smelling any human blood.

"I didn't even smell any human blood." I said, confused as ever.

Now Carlisle and Edward had the shocked-frozen-into-place expression.

"You didn't smell any human blood?" Edward asked me, his hands on my shoulders. "Any at all?"

I shook my head.

Edward looked at Carlisle.

"Is that even possible?" Edward asked, amazed.

Carlisle nodded, and then in an instant, he was shuffling through books. His office was like a library.

"I knew one vampire like that." Carlisle said, flipping through pages. "Her name was Sonrisa. She was from spain."

"Was she like Bella?" Edward asked, taking me fully into his arms.

"Yes." He said. He finally found the page he was looking for. "Here she is."

He brought the book over to us. Sonrisa was beautiful. She didn't have the usual pale skin as the vampires I knew. Her skin was darker. She was born mexican, after all. Of course it wasn't going to look like snow on her transition to the afterlife.

"Sonrisa Carina." Edward read. "The only vampire ever known to have the gifts of not smelling human blood, and Psychokinesis."

"Psychokinesis?" I asked, astonished. "That's what I have?"

Edward's arms tightened around me.

"This explains why I can't read your mind." He whispered. "I always knew you were special."

I smiled up at him. But, deep down, I was still confused.

But it was going to be okay. I had not one gift, but two.

And... I couldn't smell human blood. I could be normal. Somewhat normal, anyway.

I was as happy as any vampire could be.

So I turned around and kissed Edward with all my being, not even caring that Carlisle was in the room watching us.
