Bella's Pov
"Bella!" Alice skipped into the room in what appeared to be nervousness.
"Hmmm?" Was my reply as I was to busy reading to look up. I knew my book would be finished with in the next five minutes.
"We have to go to volterra. Aro's on the phone right now and he wants to speak with you." Alice handed me the small silver phone and I sighed as it started ringing. I could hear everyone else downstairs packing for the trip they knew was coming.
"Hello?"
"Bella! Just the girl I wanted to speak with! How are your gifts coming along?" Aro's way to happy voice rang through the phone.
"They're fine Aro. Is there something you needed?" I asked trying to keep the annoyance out of my voice.
"Yes actually. I want you to come and check on this human boy I found. He has good pootential to be a vampire, but I don't want to change him in the state he's in. It could cause problems."
"Of course. I'll be there by the end of the day." I hung up then without waiting for an answer and then packed my 'tools'.
"Come on Bella! We have to hurry!" Alice called from outside where my whole family was waiting for me to leave. The run was wonderfull. I had alwas loved the feeling of wind blowing through my hair at 1000000 mph or more. I wasn't exactly sure how fast we could run. By the time we got to volterra Aro was already witing for us at the gate. He ignore my family at first and went strait for me.
"Bella my girl! So, any new gifts lately?" He asked throwing his arm around my shoulders. I rolled my eyes but nodded.
"I can change my appearence willingly, and it changes unwillingly when I feel a powerful emotion." I explained though I was sure my eyes were black in annoyance and not in thirst. Sure enough when Aro said he had to go and feed with the others after givung us directions to the boy's room my eyes went golden again.
"That man must really annoy you." Jasper stated rubing the sides of his forehead as if he had a head ache.
"Sorry Jasper. It's this stupid gift. It makes me feel things extra strongly." I giggled. Jasper laughed and wrapped an arm around me. Alice had never minded this since Jasper was like the big brother I always wanted but never got.
"And I would know that right Bells." He smirked when I stuck my tongue out at him.
Edward's Pov
I have been locked in this damn castle for 4 days now! I need to see the sun, or even the moon, anything! I sighed and walked over to Gianna. She was the only other human here so I tended to talk to her more than others. Unfortunatly she seemed to fancy me which I didn't return.
"Hey Edward!" She greeted me with a huge innocent smile, but I could tell she was undressing me with her eyes. I smiled timidly at her to be poilte and leaned against her overly large desk.
"Anything new today Anna?" I asked the same question everyday.
"Nothing except the Cullens visiting. And you should go to your room. Feeding starts soon." She looked dissapointed with the fact that I had to leave. I nodded my thankyou and walked over to the large room I was staying in. It had a small bed, and a few chairs but that was it.
My whole body was aching just from my short walk so I layed in my bed. I could feel the cold sweat on my forehead already, and every bone in my body felt like jell-o. I was always like this, I just never knew why.
I stood shakily wanting to look out the window but as soon as I took one step my legs gave out and I started to fall. But before I could feel the ground against my face, I felt a pair of cold arms catch me. I looked up to see a pair of golden eyes, and that was all I saw before I blacked out.
Bella's Pov
When we walked into the human's room I made sure to hold my breath. I never took chances even with the weakest blood. Jasper was behind me to calm my nerves that I didn't know why I had, but as soon as I opened the door I saw the boy begining to fall. I don't know what came over me but I ran across the room to catch him in my arms before he could get to help him.
He looked up at me and I almost gasped. His eyes were as green as emeralds and they were stunningly beautifull. Before I could ask if he was okay though he passed out in my arms. Jasper started laughing and I glared at him.
"What?" I snapped.
"You're feeling lust for a human!" He gasped causing the rest of my so called loving family. I grolwed and they imidiatly shut up.
"He is kind of cute." Alice cut in. Jasper's eyes darkened with jealousy.
"Is he okay?" Esme asked. She was the only one that truely seemed worried.
"I don't know." I sighed, before picking him up and seting him down on the bed. Carlisle checked his pulse and nodded to let us know that he was fine. I sighed in reliefe this time and started stroking the few strands of messy bronze hair out of his eyes. He really was very beautifull.
I took a deep breath out of habit and then froze. His scent was the most delisous thing I hade ever smelled. A growl ripped through my throat, and Jasper imidiatly grabbed me, pinning me against the wall.
"Hold your breath Bella!" He demanded, but I didn't want to hold my breath. I wanted his blood to be running down my throat. My hair went from brown to bright red, and my etes burned with flames.
"Let me go Jasper!" I hissed, baring my teeth at him.
"What's wrong with her!?" Alice whimpered, mostly in fear that I would hurt Jasper. I could hardly hear her. There was a buzzing in my ears from my anger and venom pooled in my mouth. I was out of controle.
"Bella calm down! You can't drink his blood! Remember your lifestyle!" Jasper pleaded but I needed that blood. Growling I made my skin so hot that even a vampire would flinch, and sure enough Jasper let go of me in pain. As soon as I was free from his grasp I sank into a crouch facing my family, and hissed, defending my meal.
"W-what's going on?" A velvety voice asked from behind me. I whirled around to look at the human boy. The fear in his eyes was clear, but he didn't move or flinch away from me. I felt my hair dull back to brown and then my eyes go golden brown. There was something about this boy that drew me in. I don't think I could ever hurt him.
I took a cautious step forward, but then he really did flinch away. Shame over took me and I ran. I ran as far as I could go which was just to the other end of this insanley large castle.
