It had been 60 years, 60 long years since my change and 60 years since HE left me

Hello, umm well this is my first story so please be nice. A bit of information this is in Bella's POV and she is a vampire. This takes place after Edward left in New moon. Well please read and review, oh and enjoy!!

It had been 60 years, 60 long years since my change and 60 years since HE left me. I let out a jagged breathe as I placed the flowers down on the grave. Running my fingers across the inscription I let out a small tearless sob.

'Rest in peace, loving father, loyal officer and worthy friend, may you rest in peace and watch upon as all, we all love you.'

I collapsed down onto the wet ground as more sobs rocked through my body, I could feel the rain drenching my clothes as I knelt there crying tearless tears. My unbeating heart was once again ripped open as I traced the outline of the final words,

' Charlie Swan'

My heart shattered as I read those final words, sobs rocked through my body as I lay there mourning over my deceased father. If I wasn't a vampire I was sure I would have caught phenomena from the amount of time I had been sitting in the rain.

I heard light footsteps slowing coming towards me and by the scent I knew who it was.

"Bella?" His voice echoed in the grave yard.

I couldn't respond as the sobs coursing through me made me unable to talk. I buried my face in my hands as the crying deepened. I felt him kneel down next to me and then pull me into a hug. My sobs increased as I clung onto his shirt as he ran soothing strokes up and down my back.

"Shhh, Shhh its ok Bella, I'm here, I'm here, it will get better over time…I promise" He whispered into my ear as he gently rocked my back and forth.

" But I don't want to forget him!" I wailed pulling back a little from his embrace.

"You don't have to forget him, you just have to let go" He whispered while gently pulling me back into his arms.

"I-I c-cant" I cried as I buried my face into his chest.

"Bella you cant live in the past, especially not with our kind. Letting go doesn't mean you don't love him, he was your father and of course you will always love him, but that doesn't mean you cant move on, it wasn't your fault humans all eventually die, and I'm positive your father would not be wanting you to hurt yourself like this. Its time to accept it Bella, move on, but it doesn't mean you have to forget, I'm here for you, I'm always here for you and so is Jasmine and Stephano"

His words were right, I had to move on, but I would never forget Charlie and I would never forget Renee, and I would never stop loving them.

Slowly my sobs came to a halt as I retracted myself form his arms and stared at the tomb stone.

"Are you ok?" He asked, I could hear the worry saturated in his voice.

"No, not yet, but…I will be" I whispered as I looked up and met his honey coloured eyes.

"Thank you Damian, you truly always know what to say" I whispered before taking one last look at the tomb stone.

"Good Bye Dad, I love you and I will never forget" I whispered before standing up.

"Did you run here?" Damian questioned as we were walking out of the grave site.

"Yea, I was in a hurry" I admitted "Well I've got a rental car with our bags in it, we better hurry or we might miss the plane, and you know how Jasmine gets if we keep her waiting" Damian said.

I giggled as I climbed into the front seat of the rental car, trust Damian to try and lighten the mood.

Damian Casava is my best friend, he was the one to save me before Victoria drained me dry. He has dark blonde hair that falls just past his eyes, and is rather tall, as my head just clears his shoulders. He is of medium build and I must say he is very handsome, but not as angelic as…HIM. Damian has the power of hiding. He can completely mask his or anyone else's scent as long as he is with them, and also he can place barriers in the mind to stop other vampire's mind based abilities. He is physically 20 years old but is technically 123 years old. He is the leader of our coven, which consists of him, me, Jasmine and Stephano.

As I glanced out the window I realised we had reached the airport and Damian was just returning the car to the rental area. As we stopped I gracefully climbed out of the car and headed to the trunk of the car to get our bags. While walking at human speed to the back of the car I couldn't help notice the various men staring at me. I hated it, I hated the attention, I hated the astonishing beauty that came with being a vampire. My skin had got slightly paler and of course was flawless, my hair had grown out down to the middle of my back and had professional looking waves to it, my lips had gotten fuller and all my features became more defined and more beautiful. I also had gotten slightly taller and had curves in all the right places, and amazingly, my breasts had also gotten a little fuller. But still I couldn't understand these men, here I am soaking wet, my hair full of leaves and in clumps down my back and my clothes covered in dirt and mud from me cowering into the ground. But yet they stared, I couldn't believe it, some were even married, shown by the rings on their fingers.

I had more than one power. The first being the permanent barrier in my mind, which was carried over from my human life, the second was my power of perception. This power came with 2 parts to it, the first being I could 'see' very well. The bodies of humans or vampires make slight twitches in the muscle's of the arms or legs or so on. These tiny movements are unable to be seen even to the vampire eye, except for me. I could 'see' and interrupt these movements, and be on the offend even before my opponent's mind has comprehended the idea. I could tell just by watching these movements exactly how they are going to move and how high. The body makes these move's about 2 seconds before the idea reaches the brain, being more than enough time for me to dodge and attack. The second part to my power was I could watch something and then I could instantly remember and be able to do it, but this doesn't count with other vampire's powers. So I've watched every kung-fu, martial arts, action or fighting relative movie you could think of, as well as every gymnastics, yoga and every other useful skill I could need. Also lastly I had one other power, one very dangerous and addictive power. It is my blue lighting. It's what it say's blue lighting, I can shoot streams of blue coloured thunder out of my hands in streams or in blasts. It's caused and fuelled by my anger. But I don't use it much, as it is very addictive. The power I feel when I use it is amazing, and I'm nearly unstoppable. But the problem is I'm different when I use it, I'm more aggressive, more angry, I'm not Bella. It takes every ounce of my energy to shut it off and stop the flow, and also every bit of self control I have and actually causes me physical pain to stop.

I sighed as I popped the trunk but even before I could stick my hand in Damian was by my side easily lifting our bags out. I smiled at him while I reached in and grabbed our 2 small carry on bags.

"disgusting men" I whispered under my breathe as we walked past them and into the airport.

Damian laughed under his breathe as we entered, "well they can't help it, look at you" He chuckled as we walked into the terminal to check in our bags.

I rolled my eyes at his remark "Soaking wet, and covered in mud sooooo attractive"

This caused him to laugh out loud, "Well you know some men have their fantasies"

I playfully glared at him as we approached the receptionist to check our bags in.

The lady behind the counter looked to be about mid twenties, blonde with a slim figure, and her mouth basically dropped to the ground as she caught sight of Damian.

"hello sir what can I do for you?" She was obviously only talking to him as she dramatically batted her fake eye lashes.

"We have two tickets reserved under Casava for England"

The lady obviously now took notice of me as she heard the word 'two' and she glared at me as she typed the information into the computer.

"Ahh yes Mr Casava I have your two tickets here" Her nose scrunched up as she said two, "But you better hurry your plane leaves in 15 minutes"

And with that Damian swiped the tickets and we headed of towards our tunnel to the plane. After 5 minutes we were on the plane, first class of course and we were finding our seats.

"Bella Damian over here!" We heard Jasmine yell out, I looked over the other seats to finally spot Jasmine and Stephano smiling at us, we smiled in return and made our way over to the 2 spare seats behind them.

Jasmine was beautiful, she had short blond hair that ended just above her shoulders and of course had all the extremely beautiful vampire features. She was my height and had a slim build like mine. She was 19 years old when she was changed but is technically 72 years old. Her power is that she is a strategist. It means that she is able to form almost full proof plans, always with a 99.9 success rate.

Stephano, also known as Stephan is 20 years old but has been a vampire for 93 years. He is a bit taller than Damian and has short coal black hair. He has a muscular build and is married to Jasmine. His power is that he 'knows things' He's like a computer he knows near everything, well that is facts and information of course. He reads a lot, but he is hilarious and some times can be a bit cocky.

I smiled back as we took our seats behind them, neither of them questioned my ragged attire, as they both knew were I had been. This was my family and this was our coven. We all went under the name of Casava. Damian, Stephan and myself pose as siblings, as Jasmine is Stephan's wife.

"Are you ok?" Jasmine asked me, as she turned in her seat.

I gave a weak smile back, and I gave the only answer I could "I will be"

"Were all here for you" I smiled back at her "I know".

Satisfied with my answer she smiled one more time, then turned back round into her seat.

I sighed as I stared out the window, watching the forests we flew over. England, that was our new home for the next 5 or 6 years and I was content, I was some what …. Happy. As long as I had Damian, Jasmine and Stephan I would survive.

I closed my eyes and listened to all the sounds going on around me and I fell into a relaxed state, just thinking about my family and friends and what was to come in my future.

So well that's all for now, I hope you liked it. Please review as they encourage me to update faster. Any questions feel free to ask!! Till next time BYE!!
