Bella's Twilight

Chapter 1 : First Sight

I was about to pick up my hairbrush when Alice suddenly appeared behind me, her thin figure reflecting in the long mirror of my room. She took my brush and said, toying with it :

"Bella, do you really think I'm going to let you simply brush your hair ?"

I pretended to think for two seconds : "Mmm… Yes !"

And I took my brush back.

"No way, just sit down and let me make you even more beautiful."

I sighed and obeyed, I wouldn't want my sister to be upset.

"Close your eyes," she commanded.

After three minutes, she told me she was done. I opened my eyes and gasped.

"You turned me into a doll or what ??"

I had pink blush on my cheekbones and dark green eyelid powder on my eyes. My lips were natural. I turned to her : "You realize it's going to fade by the end of the day ?" She nodded joyfully.

But my hair was beautiful, long curls and I had a little blue barrette on the top of my head. I kissed Alice on the cheek, took my bag and my keys and then we went downstairs.

Hardly arrived at school, I could already hear the excitement among the girls and I could also feel the jealousy overwhelming the boys. Everyone was babbling about the new boy : Edward Masen, coming from Phoenix apparently. I laughed as I passed by a girl who was hyperventilating, she had a class with him.

I had my first classes with Alice and then, I'll have Biology II after lunch ; I thought I was going to "die" of boredom until Alice told me, in her mind : Check this out

I looked at her and shook my head. That's bad to do this Alice

She had just shown me Jessica Stanley trying to seduce Edward Masen, she was using this smile that Mike usually had when trying to seduce her.

"Hi, I'm Jessica Stanley. You're Edward Masen, right ?"

The boy looked a little confused and replied : "Yes."

Jessica had carried on asking him about Phoenix and how life was over there, he had replied indifferently to her questions and focused back on the teacher. Alice was giggling.

"That's mean," I said with narrowed eyes. "And so is Jessica."

"What do you mean ?" Alice asked me, frowning.

"Do you honestly think Jessica cares about him ? She only sees a hot guy." I shook my head.

Alice shrugged. "There aren't so many distractions for kids here."

Then, the bell rang, we packed up our things quickly and were the first to walk out the door : we went to our second class.

"Have you seen his hair ?? It drives me crazy when he ran his fingers through it !" A girl said to another one. She was talking about the new student of course. A's N : Inspired by me and so many other girls ha ha

I smiled at the excitement around me, it seemed so unreal that only one person could provoke something like this. We finally arrived in our class, Alice and I sat at our table. There was a special link between she and I, we've been so much more than sisters but also best friends. She was like the sister I didn't have, I was a unique child, my parents had divorced when I was very young and then the flu had killed them, and almost me too but Carlisle had saved me.

The hour passed quietly. Sometimes, Alice was smiling to herself ; certainly having fun seeing what Jessica will do next. I carried on looking through the window and observing the evolution of nature, that was great to have vampire eyes.

We went to lunch, Alice and I were looking with disgust at human food and sometimes making fun of its aspect too. Then we sat at our usual table with Jasper, Emmett and Rose. She was admiring herself in the reflection of the window, I rolled my eyes.

"I saw you," she said then, glaring at me.

I stuck out my tongue at her and took my fork in my hand, faking to be about to eat. I knew Jessica Stanley was looking at me so I turned my head to meet her gaze, I'd been wrong : she was glaring at me. She stopped as soon as I caught her and I frowned. Why was she glaring at me this way ? Usually, she never looked at me. She, Mike, Eric, Angela and the new one, Edward, sat at their usual table, across the cafeteria. After a few moments, Jessica was glaring at me again, I frowned.

"What's wrong ?" Emmett asked.

"Jessica's glaring at me, and that's annoying not to know why," I replied.

"I know why," Alice said, laughing.

"Why ?" I urged.

"Check out who's looking at you too at their table," she smiled.

I turned my head and met beautiful green eyes, he blinked and looked away as our gazes met. Edward. I turned to Alice.

"Don't tell me she's jealous of me ?" I asked.

She nodded, smiling. "I think so, she was going to talk to him but he's just decided to ask about us."

I turned my head to their table again and he was looking at me. Mike was also glaring at Edward. Of course. He was jealous of him. What a vicious circle. That was ridiculous how Mike seemed to daydream about me and the way he acted whenever I tried to talk to him. Like the others, he dreaded us. Because he knew somehow that there was something different about us.

Edward blushed and looked down each time our eyes met. The inviting color was mouth-watering, that reminded me of hunting. I had to go hunting tonight. With Jasper. I knocked his leg.

"Hunting tonight ?" I asked.

He smiled and nodded. Poor Jasper, he was completely thirsty. And so was I. But I could resist more easily than him. Several minutes later, I got up and got out of the cafeteria. And walked to Biology II.

I sat at my empty table and prepared my books. That's when I saw Angela flashing a discrete smile toward the door, I looked at it, curious, and understood immediately. Edward had this class too, I guessed her intentions were a lot more sincere than Jessica's. The only seat left was the one next to me, Edward would have to sit by me the whole semester, poor boy. Mike was already glaring at him as he understood that he was going to be my lab neighbour for so long.

Edward smiled at me in a very shyly way and I wanted to give the smile back at first, human instinct certainly, but as he walked to the teacher's desk, he passed in front of the fan for an instant.

My mind went blank then. I couldn't think of anything else than his lilac and honey scent. In eighty years, I had never ever smelt such a sweet fragrance. I was nothing close to the human I've tried to keep alive in me for so many years ; at the very moment his scent slapped me, all I can think about was that I was a vampire and that he was on my radar. I covered my mouth as he walked to the table and I stopped breathing. As I looked up at him, fear mixed with confusion showed in his eyes ; I moved my seat as far as I could from him. I was well aware that I couldn't make any mistakes. Right now at least. I should find a way to be alone with him so I could enjoy his blood ; the scent was delicious, the taste should be way better. My mouth was full of venom, I swallowed it back with difficulty. My prey sat on his chair and looked up at me. I knew my eyes were black now but as I looked into his green eyes, I saw myself and looked away quickly.

I was worse than a animal, I was like… mad. I heard his heart accelerating ; I was scaring him. It didn't help me, since his heart raced, blood flows in his veins faster. I tried to tune this out but my eyes fell on the veins of his hands and I saw the pulse. I was almost about to jump at him when the teacher called my name.

"Miss Cullen ?"

I breathed a little so as to speak and answered : "Cytoplasm."

Though I hadn't paid any attention to what he asked, I had heard it anyway. I stopped breathing and tried to focus on my family. This worked a little, I managed to control myself but couldn't keep my eyes off this strange boy. After an hour of terrible tension and thirst, I got up and almost ran to the door half a second before the bell rang. I immediately ran to my car. Alice was waiting for me already.

"Haven't you seen that ??" I almost yelled.

"I haven't, I'm sorry, I can't control what I see," she replied calmly.

"Damnit, what am I going to do ?"

"Maybe you could try to find a way to change your timetable for this class at least," Alice proposed.

I sighed and nodded. "Yeah, sounds like a good idea, I'll be right back."

I ran to the office and was politely greeted by Mrs Cope.

"Hello, Bella. What do you need ?"

Mrs Cope and all the people working in this school were very nice to us, the Cullen. We were the best students and the most serious ones. It shouldn't be difficult to ask for a favour.

"Hello Mrs Cope, I have a favour to ask."

"Sure, tell me," she frowned.

"Could I skip Biology II from now, I know all the program already. Maybe I could replace it with a superior class, that'd be more interesting to me."

"Mmm… I'll see what I can do, let me look at the timetables of the other classes."

"Thanks." I replied with a smile on my face.

I heard the door open behind me.

Mrs Cope came back with the timetables. She winced.

"I'm afraid you have to stay in Biology, all the other classes are full Bella." She looked really sorry.

"Could I just skip this class ?" I tried.

"No, that's impossible, I'm sorry," she said.

"Please ?" I begged.

Then someone opened the door to throw a piece of paper in the trash and then closed it quickly. His scent hit me at the moment I was breathing. I had to get out.

"I'm sorry Bella, really," Mrs Cope said.

"Don't worry about it, thanks for your help anyway," I replied and turned around.

Edward was looking at me with wary eyes. I opened the door violently and walked quickly to my car.

Everyone was there, they were all looking at me. We climbed into the car.

"What's going on Bella ?" Rosalie asked.

"I have to talk to Carlisle," I said between my teeth.

They looked at each other, raising eyebrows but didn't ask me anything else. I drove them back home and then told them : "Tell Esme not to worry."

They nodded. I drove to the hospital.

Arrived at the hospital, I parked quickly and went directly into Carlisle's office. He didn't looked up and asked me what was wrong.

"I need to go, I think," I said.

"What happened ?"

There's this boy, he has an incredible fragrance, I was about to kill him in Biology, I can't stay here for now.

Do you want us to go with you ?

No, I don't want you to move, Rosalie wouldn't like this.

Where do you want to go ?

I think I'll go to Denali.

Take my car, I have a full tank of gas.

He threw me the keys and I got out. Thanks Carlisle, tell Esme I'll come back.

Sure.

I heard him sigh and I went to his car. His Mercedes was incredibly fast, it was good. I called Alice.

"Bella ? Where are you ?"

"I'm going to Denali for a few days I think, I'll be right back."

"Do you want me to-"

I cut her : "No, no it will be weird if you disappear from school too, Alice. It's going to be ok, don't worry."

"Ok, we love you Bella."

"I love you too, bye."
