What would Twilight be like if Bella was the vampire and Edward was the human and nearly everything else was the same? Would their be a different ending? Find out here!
I own no rights to this, they are all Stephanie Meyer's.
Forks. The perfect town where the sun shone on occasions but mostly was plagued with torrential rain and the sky was blocked with clouds. It was also a small town, no suspecting people to hunt us down for the dark secret.
Today was like any other, the grey clouds hung dejectedly in the sky, the sun barely lighting up the sky enough to call it day. Except today felt different, like something new was creeping up behind us that even Alice couldn't see.
"Have a good day, Bella" Esme smiled, hugging me tightly before pushing me lightly towards the front door of our country house. I walked from the door, choosing the most inconspicuous car we owned, the Volvo, before jumping into the drivers seat. "Urgh, Bella, get out of the driving seat, you drive too slowly" Emmett complained before I objected by started it up and revving loudly.
He begrudgingly slid into the back seat beside Rosalie, muttering curses to himself out loud. Alice giggled before practically gliding into the seat beside me and we pulled away. The road curved sharply, obscuring out house from the sight of everyone else who didn't know it was there.
The school was as plain as ever, the grey stone making it look even more like a prison than it actually was. "Have a brilliant day, Bella. I know there's something waiting for you" Alice called cheerily as I walked through the doors of the school. I knew she was hiding something from me!
Just as I turned to Alice and started to tune into her thoughts, I saw she was gone, disappeared to somewhere within the school. Sighing, I turned back towards the ongoing starers as I walked through the corridors. Their minds annoyed me, like tiny bees flying too close to my head.
I wonder if she's noticing me... Where's Jess gone?... Oh my gosh, It's Bella Cullen. Act natural, Mike. I kept my head down, noticing the voices but never seeing the faces that matched, accept for Mike's. His face was pure astonishment as I looked his way and flicked him a half smile.
Wow, she is majorly beautiful, why would she be interested in you? Mike mentally slapped himself which made me laugh , I wished my voice was as bell like as Alice so it would catch everyones attention as hers normally did.
My first class was English, the same old teacher along with the same old answers I had heard too many times over that I almost knew them by heart. I sighed as I settled into my seat, the one furthest away from the door and closest to the window, easy to daydream with.
Before I knew it, Lunch was upon us . With a sigh of relief I walked into the canteen to volleys of thoughts. Oh, its the Cullen's again. "Who are they?" I heard the boy, Edward, ask Mike. I saw Mike smile warmly as he told Edward about who we were. " and that girl?" Edward inquired after I walked in behind my loved up brothers and sisters.
"That's Isabella Cullen, completely gorgeous but ignores everyone who isn't a teacher or a Cullen. Except this morning" Mike trailed off, thinking back to this morning when, out of pure kindness, I had smiled at him. Not because of the numerous reasons he was thinking of.
He looked over to me, his eyes looking over all of my family. As Mike explained all about us, I took a seat next to Alice and discreetly watch Edward from a distance. As usual, everyone eyes sometimes strayed to our table, lingering there for a few minutes before looking away again.
Weirdly, Edward didn't seem to know the 'rules' when it came to us Cullen's and his eyes kept straying towards us, his mind as blank as a white wall. It annoyed me so much that I couldn't see what he was thinking, that I couldn't even work out if we were in trouble.
"Bella? What's wrong?" Alice enquired as everyone looked over to their table which made Edward look away swiftly. I sighed before turning back towards them. "I... I can't read him! His minds a complete blank to me" I sighed angrily, probing his mind again to see if it had changed in the last minute.
"Well that's strange, you can read anyone" Alice murmured, her face blanking as she started having another vision. Jasper handed her a notepad in case she had to draw a location or any information she got from it.
We crowded around her, not too close but close enough that if anyone looked our way, they wouldn't see how inhuman she looked and talked when she had a vision. Alice suddenly shook her head and looked up.
"Its... its not clear. There's always a different ending or something keeps changing" Alice sighed, clutching her head in anguish. Jasper put an arm around her shoulder and murmured soothing thoughts to her quietly.
The bell rang loudly, signalling the end of lunch and the beginning of Biology. Alice looked up with a small smile on her face. "Have fun in Biology, Bella" she said slyly before dancing off towards her next lesson.
I sat down with a sigh, the same old classroom, same old teacher and same old classmates. Except no. "Class, we have a new student today, Edward Swan. Would you like to sit next to Bella" the teacher sighed, directing him to where I sat, looking bored. I looked up as a smell hit my nose, more luscious than any human scent I have ever encountered.
I turned my back to the smell, my throat burning viciously, making me remember that I hadn't fed for a week. This is going to be harder than it should be I thought. "Oh, Edward, there's a seat next to Bella, you seem well matched" the teacher smiled, unaware of what pain this would bring me to be sitting in the same room as him, let alone next to him.
I pushed the sample towards him, keeping me face against the window, trying to block out the sound of his and the thoughts of everyone else. Wait... I couldn't hear the thoughts of this boy. The petty thoughts of women were no where to be seen. It was like someone had put a wall up within his head so I couldn't hear.
"He he, I told you there was something waiting for you, I just didn't know what. Keep strong Bella, I know you can" Alice thought, a smile plastered on her face, as usual. Thankfully, my family, and my pride at not murdering anyone in a few centuries, kept me from killing Edward.
The bell chimed, signalling the end of the lesson, and the end of my torture for at least a day. Walking fast, a little faster than a typical human should, I entered the main office to see the bored, male receptionist sitting there. "Excuse me, Mr Luner, I had a question about biology" I smiled, looking at him intensely.
As I had planned, he looked up with a large smile on his face and indecent thoughts in his head. Man, she's so beautiful, would she ever think about me? No, I'm just the stupid receptionist. "Yes, urr, how can I help?" he smiled again, his voice breaking halfway through his sentence. He coughed, trying to steady his voice and repeated his sentence.
"I'd like to change please, maybe chemistry?" I smiled broadly, shivering inwardly as I fluttered my eyelashes at him. Just for a moment, his concentration wavered and he sat, staring at me while thinking so extremely disgusting thoughts.
"Mr Luner?" I asked, even though I knew he was not paying attention to me at all. He shook his head, looked away and breathed deeply as if he had just woken from a long sleep. He quickly started typing on the computer, little boxes opening all over the screen.
"Oh, sorry, Miss Cullen. It seems there is no place in chemistry or any other courses for that matter. You'll just have to stay in biology" he apologised, his mind still in the clouds from my 'dazzling' behaviour. Suddenly, that lavender and sandalwood like smell, but much better, entered the hall.
"You know what, I'll stay there. I'll have to endure it" I said, barely holding in a snarl of anger from the poor man that didn't deserve it. I stormed from the hall, looking once quickly at the beautifully smelling boy.
His hair was a strange copper colour, brighter than the colour of a penny but not as bright as my eyes. His eyes were a green, the colour of the leaves in the summer. One of the things that really drew me in to him, apart from his smell, was his skin. Although his colourings everywhere else were bright, his skin was pale, almost as pale as mine. In that sudden moment, I imagined his as a vampire, his hands cold as ice, his eyes like topaz and the beautiful smell that emanated from him, gone.
As I walked from the school, thoughts pounding my head at an alarming speed, I saw Edward. He was standing by a tatty pick-up truck, his pride obviously hurting by just being near it. Jessica walked past him, a small smile on her face as she tried to talk to him. He said a few words before he climbed into his truck and with a look towards my car, he drove away.
