This is my first fan fiction. Please let me know what you think.

The Cullen's never came back in New Moon. Bella did become friends with the wolf pack. Bella graduated and went to college. When she turned 21 she decided to move to Bon Temps with her cousin Sookie.

BPOV

So I decided to get out of Washington. I needed a change and badly. I had gotten over them to a certain extent but I just needed to leave. I had kept in contact with my cousin Sookie and she said I could move in with her till I got on my feet in Bon Temps.

As I stepped off the plane in Shreveport I was greeted by the sun. That had to be a good sign right? I hope it did at least. I went to the baggage claim and got my two suitcases. Then I went in search of Sookie. She was suppose to be picking me up.

"BELLA" I heard my name yelled and turned to see Sookie standing there in a white sun dresses with yellow flowers on it. He long blonde hair was pulled into a pony tail much like my own hair.

She ran toward me and brought me into a hug, I dropped my bags and embraced her back with a big smile on my face.

"Hey Sook. It's so good to see you" I told her after we pulled away from our hug. Sookie grabbed one of my suitcases and I picked up the other one.

"Bella its so good to see you! I'm so happy that you decided to come stay with me. I cant wait for you to meet everyone." Sookie said as we walked outside to her little yellow car. We put my things in the back and Sookie got in the drivers seat while I got in the passenger seat.

"So how are things Sook?" I asked after we pulled out of the airport parking lot.

"Oh well not much. I know you know about the vampires. Well I've been dating one named Bill. You'll meet him tonight. You'll also meet Eric and Pam tonight too. Sorry about that by the way. Eric has some things for us to talk about tonight and I've told them all about you and he wanted to meet you." Sookie told me nervously.

"Um Sook you didn't tell him about my shield did you?" I asked while I looked at her.

"No but I did tell him you're the only human that I cant hear your thoughts. That's why he wants to meet you. I'd never tell your secrets Bella. I didn't even tell Bill." Sookie reassured me.

"Thanks." I asked.

We were quiet the rest of the way to Sookie's house. I was trying to figure out if I should tell her about my other gifts I've found out about over the years. The pack all know about them and has helped me get them under control. I decided to let Sookie know that I can at least allow her to hear my thoughts. Then I'd go from there.

Hey Sook! I thought to her.

She gasped and looked at me in surprise before looking back to the road.

"How'd ya do that Bells?" Sookie asked me

"I've learned how to bring my shield down. Thought I'd let you know that so if you ever hear me it wont surprise you again." I giggled.

"Well I think that's great. Thanks for letting me know. But you don't have to tell the other's about your shield if you don't want to." Sookie told me.

"Thanks. I'll just see how it goes." I told her.

When we got to Sookie's house she showed me to my new room and helped me unpack. By the time we got through the sun was setting. Sookie helped me pick out an outfit for tonight. (I've started dressing more like a girl) She had me in some of my blue jean short shorts that I bought just for moving here and a red off the shoulder shirt that fit perfectly. I straightened my hair and put some light make up on. We both ate a sandwich a piece and some fruit.

"Come on Bella. Bill should be here any minute and then we are leaving." Sookie said and we walked out the front door. As we walked up to the car there was a man with dark hair and dark eyes opening to passenger door for us.

"Bill Compton this is Bella Swan. Bella this is my boyfriend Bill." Sookie introduced us as we got closer to the vampire.

"Nice to meet you Bella." Bill said and reached his hand out for me to shake.

"Nice to meet you as well Bill." I said and hesitantly shook his hand.

So with that we loaded up in the car and headed out. Sookie and I chatted most of the way to Shreveport. Bill mostly stayed quiet. But I kept my eye on him. I just didn't get a good vibe from him. I was looking forward to meeting Eric and Pam, though nervous over how I smelled to them all. Yeah like Sookie I'm Fae also so I makes me more nervous then it did with them because now I know that I smell good to all vampires.

Please let me know what you think with it so far.
