SUMMARY:

Ale Marie - one of the top female singers in the world. With her gentle, breath-taking voice, she has the world at her feet. She used to be Isabella Marie Swan, but not anymore. She's a different person now; stronger, sweeter and even more quieter. She makes friends easier as well. She's over the Cullens, but what happens when they do come back? The Volturi are not involved, but someone else is. Will Ale fall for Edward yet again, or will she fall for someone else, and truly be over Edward Cullen?


I don't own the characters.

"Miss Ale, you have forty-five minutes to get your make-up done, and it's an honour, really, to have you performing here at our hotel."

I smiled at him, nodding slightly.
"Thank you, Mr. Rochster. I appreciate your kind words," I replied, letting one of the people lead me away to put make-up on me. He blushed and disappeared from sight as the door shut behind me. Charming, I thought to myself, as I sat down in front of the mirror. I was staring at a completely different person now. My hair was curled in all the right places, and it looked just as fresh as ever. I was a natural brunette. I didn't want to damage my hair by dying it, so I used spray paint. I had streaks of maroon and gold in my hair. I was wearing a white long sleeved shirt, and a black collared shirt over it. My black jeans matched very nicely with the shirt, and it complimented my hips and thighs. I smiled at myself.

The make-up artist was nervous to be around me. I smiled gently at her in the mirror, "Hello." She grinned shyly, "Hi, Miss Ale."
I waved that away, "Please, call me Ale. What's your name?"
"Carrie."
"That's a really pretty name, Carrie," I said, "We have…" –checked the clock on the wall – "exactly forty minutes for you to get me all ready, Carrie. Start your magic." She grinned and got started. While she did my eyes, we talked about her, and a little about me as well; the places I've been to, and what it's like being on stage performing for a wide audience. She was a very sweet girl. She was a high school drop-out, and her parents were against her dreams to become a make-up artist. Feeling nice, I decided to ask her, "Carrie. What do you say to leaving this dump and joining me on the road?"

She stared at me, eyes wide. "You have to be joking." I shook my head, chuckling.

"No. Honey, I like you. You remind me so much of myself when I was in high school. Really, do join me. Plus, you have skills. I like my make-up, so far." She gaped at me, and a little squeal escaped her lips. "Oh my God, yes! I would love to!" I chuckled, "You might want to finish your work on me first, though." I winked at her.

She blushed, and got straight to work.
When she was done, I was amazed. She had given me black eye shadow which faded away bit by bit on the top of my eyelid. The shape, the way she had lined it out; it was gorgeous. I looked like a wolf. I grinned, "Just perfect."

"Miss Ale, you're due on stage in ten minutes!" Mr. Rochster announced from outside, and we could hear his heavy footsteps fading away into the distance. I stood up, and gave Carrie a hug. "Thank you, Carrie. Go pack your bags. You're coming home with me tonight." Her eyes shone gratefully and she ran off. I chuckled softly and walked out. Thank God these boots were comfortable, or I would have tripped.

Tonight, I was performing for the Ambassador 's wife's birthday. Apparently, she was hooked on my music. She had requested for me to sing here tonight. I stood behind the curtain and inhaled eeply.

I'm no longer the girl I was in high school. No longer foolish, naïve and fragile.
My name is now Ale Marie. No longer Isabella Swan.

"And now, to perform, is the lovely, young, twenty three years old, Miss Ale Marie!"
As I stepped out onto the stage, the audience stood up and applaud. I grinned.

This was my new life.
Nothing can change that. Ever.

Has Bella changed for the better?
What happens next?
Want Jacob in the story?
Leave one!

Out of the Cullens, who do you think Ale should miss the most? XD Hahaha. And, should Ale get a pet? What kind? What to name it!?
