Bella woke up, shaking, not because she was afraid but because she was cold. It was considerably colder than when she went to bed last night. She tried to find the source but saw nothing out of place.
BEEP! BEEP! went her alarm. She quickly shut it off and stretched. Today she had to give a tour to the foreign exchange students at school: Edward and Alice Cullen.
She began her morning routine: take a shower, brush her teeth, fix her hair, change her clothes, put on her makeup, and eat breakfast. Even though she was half-vampire, half-human, she still had to eat human food. Bella's parents, Charlie and Renee Swan, were the real vampires. Renee got pregnant with Bella while she was still human; Charlie was a vampire. After Bella almost killed Renee during childbirth, Charlie stabbed Renee in the heart with a syringe full of venom. Bella grew more quickly than a normal human child. But now that Bella was eighteen, she quit growing at an increased rate.
Bella sat down at the table in the middle of her parents. A bowl of cereal, poptarts, and a glass of orange juice appeared before her on the table. She ate quickly and said goodbye to her parents. She jumped into her candy apple red Corvette and drove to school.
When she pulled into her usual parking spot, she noticed a crowd of people surrounding a bright sunshine yellow Challenger. Bella pushed her way through the crowd and headed towards the school office.
When she opened the door she saw two people standing in the corner whispering. One word popped into her head when she saw them.
