Chapter 1: Bella Swan
Hello my name is Bella Rose Swan and I am 21. I am also a vampire now. I have not been a vampire all my life. I was changed into one many years ago. That is in my story also but you will just have to wait and see where. This story is about me and my life in Dance. I want to start with when I was just four years old and tell you my life from there to now. I wont bore you with all the years that I went through ballet school so don't worry about me telling you about every year I went. This is a very exciting story believe me and I hope you enjoy reading it. Lets start with where I live and a little about me and my parents. My full name is Isabella Rose Swan and my parents are Charlie and Renee Swan. They have been divorced since I was just a baby and I am living with my mom and my step dad Phil in Forks, Washington. My real dad lives in Cherry Hill, New Jersey where I was flown back and forth once a month so I can spend two weeks at a time with him. I love both my parents but I hated that they were so far apart but dad will not move closer to us so I just have to stick with it. I am now 21 and well here is how I wanted to start my dance career at the age of four.
"Bella honey, its time to wake up," mom told me.
I looked at the time and then I looked at her like she was crazy. I rolled back over and closed my eyes and then I felt her pick me up and hold me to her.
"Bella, you are going to miss your flight. Do you want to go see your dad?" she asked me.
I nodded against her and she smiled at me. I love my mom so much but at times she can be to overprotecting. Yeah, at the age four I could tell time and stuff like that. Mom has been home schooling me since I was two. By the age of four I can read, write, play the piano, tell time and all the stuff kids at the age of 6 knows. I love playing the piano so much. When I am upset with my parents or with something else I go to my room where I have my very own piano in it and I play till I start to feel better. I also love to dance, and would love to learn how to do all kinds of dance; I want to start with Ballet and go from there. I keep asking my mom to enroll me into classes but she tells me I am to young to be doing that. I tell her that I read somewhere that kids at the age of three start dance and are now grown and are the worlds best dancers. She would just roll her eyes at me and would drop the subject. I am going to have to ask my dad to let me do dance.
Here I am now at the airport with mom and she always cries when she has to let me go. I will give her a hug and kiss and then a lady would load me onto the plane and seat me. I then pull out my mp3 player and listen to it for the four hour non stop flight to my dads. Four hours later we were landing at the airport in NJ and the same lady helped me up and out to my father who was waiting at the gate for me. When I would see him I would run up to him and he would pick me up and hug me tight. He put me down and smiled really big at me.
"Bells, I miss you so much when you are not around. How was your flight?" dad asked me.
"Same as usual, boring and waiting to see you. I missed you also dad," I told him.
He carried me to the bag thing to get my two bags that I have with me at all times. I was really small for my age and he was afraid that I would get stepped on and I was scared also. He carried to me to his big blue truck and buckle me into my booster seat so I can see the road with him. He put my bags in the back and then get in and we are off now. I was wondering when to ask dad about me starting dancing and I thought to myself that now is the time.
"Daddy, I know I am just four but I really want to learn ballet. Is there any ballet studios around here?" I asked him.
He thought for a moment and smiled at me.
"What did your mom say?" he asked me.
I knew then he had me and he knew then also.
"She said I was to young but dad I read where girls at the age of three start dancing. I mean we would start out with one class a week but then as I get older I can enroll into a ballet school," I told him.
He thought for a moment and then he looked at me for a moment and then back to the road.
"Honey, I will see what I can do. You act older than what you are and I know you will do really good in what ever you want to do. You can do ballet," he told me.
I started to clap and laugh because I knew I would get what I want with my dad. We got home and I was so excited I just could not stop dancing around the house to my mp3 player. Dad would laugh here and there while talking to mom about me doing ballet. They would argue but then he would just roll his eyes and I would laugh at him. An hour later he got off the phone with mom and looked at me.
"Well, what did mom say?" I asked him.
He smiled at me and then shake his head.
"Well after arguing with her for an hour I told her that you will be just fine doing dance and that I would be with you. So she gave in and told me to enroll you into ballet," dad told me.
I started to jump up and down, cheering and dancing all over the house. That night dad rented some movies about ballet dancing and we started to study on what is required to do ballet. It was going on 8pm and I had to get to bed. So dad gave me a bath and help me get dressed for the night. Then he read me a story and tuck me into bed.
The next morning I woke up and walked into the kitchen to eat where I saw dad on the phone and I look at him and he held his finger up. I sat in my chair and smiled at him while he talked to someone. He then hung up and smiled at me. He fixed me a bowl of cereal and he sat back down to drink from his coffee.
"Dad, who were you talking to?" I asked him.
He smiled at me really big.
"Well honey that was a teacher from a ballet school not to far from here. I told her that you were four and very interested in learning ballet dance. So I set up times for you to go and learn ballet. I have to get someone to go with you tho, because I don't want to be the only guy there helping their daughter with their first class. So I got to make one more call to Alice Cullen and see if she would be there for you. She has another sister that is in ballet also and two brothers and herself and her boyfriend are all in Ballet. Right now they are back from Russia. So eat and I will call her," dad told me.
I started to eat my cereal while dad called this girl. I was listening to him talk to her and he would smile every once in awhile which made me smile. Then he said something that I did not get; yeah she don't know about you all. I wonder what he meant about that? He talked to her for a bit and then he got off the phone and smiled at me.
"Good news honey, Alice will help you learn to do ballet and be there with you. You will have my money support and love but she will be their to help teach you. Now eat because the first year class start today at 10am and it's going on 8am but I have to take you to a ballet shop not to far from your school which is called American Repertory Ballet (ARB) & Princeton Ballet School. Just call it the ARB. When you start you are going to Princeton Ballet School and then when you get a little older then you will go to ARB," Dad told me.
I ate my breakfast and then there was a knock on our door and dad went to get it as I put my bowl up. I was still in my night clothes but I went to see who was there at the door and I saw the most beautiful woman in the world. She was short, with spiky black hair and very pale skin. She was very skinny but not to skinny all I knew she was very beautiful. She saw me and flashed me a set of very straight white teeth and she bent down to my level and held her arms out to me. I went to her and she pulled me into a hug and I smiled at her but I also had a chill go through me because she was cold to the touch.
"Hello Bella, my name is Mary Alice Cullen but you can call me Alice. It is very nice to meet you. My family and your dad has been friends for a very long time and it is really good to meet his daughter. Can I help you get ready? Because we have to go so we can get you a few things before class?" she asked me.
"Thank you, that will be very nice of you," I told her.
I grabbed her cold hand and lead her to my room and she smiled when she saw the darker shades of purple. She went to my closet and started to look through my closet and shook her head. She came out with a pair of pants and a purple shirt. She came over to me and helped me get out of my night clothes and then she put my shirt on and her hands touched my sides and I would wiggle and she would laugh.
"I am so sorry Bella that my hands are so cold. Get your pants on and I will be back in a moment," she told me.
I nodded at her and she left my room but returned to me in no time. She smiled at me and helped me with my shoes and socks and then she put my hair up into a bun and then she looked me over.
"Well, I guess you are ready now. Your dad gave me some money to get the things that you will need so go say bye to him before he leaves for work," she told me.
We both walked out of my room and into the living room where dad was adding his gun belt to his uniform. See my dad is a police officer with Cherry Hill Police Department and has been for a long time. I walked up to him and he picked me up and kissed me on the cheek and hugged me to him. He put me back down and smiled.
"You have fun now Bells and I will see you later," he told me.
I smiled and he left and Alice looked down on me.
"Lets go Bella, I have a key to the house so we can leave to get your stuff that you will need," she told me.
We walk out of the house and there in the drive way is a silver Volvo and I look at her.
"Is that your car?" I asked her.
"No, it's my bothers car. He is letting me drive it till my car is fixed," she told me.
I nodded and she grabbed my hand and walked me to the car and opened the door. She helped me into my booster seat I guess dad put in there and buckled me in. She then got in on the other side and we were off. I watched where we were going and then I saw that we have entered into another county and I looked at Alice.
"Alice, where are we?" I asked her.
"We are in Princeton, it's not to far from where you live she told me.
She smiled and I knew she was hiding something but I did not care. I also noticed that she was driving pretty fast and I just knew she would get pulled over but she did not. She then pulled up into a parking lot and I saw a shop that said Ballet Shop. I smiled and looked at the time. We still had 30 minutes before I had to be at the school. Alice came to me and helped me out so I would not fall out and then she grabbed my hand and we walked into this small shop. A lady behind a tall counter smiled at us.
"Welcome to the Ballet Shop, how may I help you two young ladies?" she asked us.
"Well, I have here a girl that is going to be starting beginning ballet and she needs everything. We have 30 minutes before we had to be at ARB," Alice told her.
"Well follow me and we will get you what you need," she told us.
We followed her and she told me to sit.
"So honey, how old are you?" she asked me.
"I just turned 4 last month and my name is Bella," I told her.
She smiled at me and started to look at my size and stuff and she came back with a load of stuff in her arms.
"Okay, you are very small for four but I have stuff that will fit you. Lets try on the ballet shoes and then the other stuff. Then you should be ready," she told me.
Her and Alice took me to a changing room and they helped me into a mesh ruffle leotard, leopard print mesh skirt, and then the leather ballet shoes. Alice replaced my scrunchie with a purple velvet one. They took me to a mirror and when I saw myself I could not help but smile at myself. Everything I had on was in different shades of purple and well I looked beautiful. Alice took a picture of me on her phone and smiled at me.
"Bella, take your ballet shoes off and put you other shoes on. Then put this cropped wrap sweater on and well put your other clothes in this heart roll bag. Then we'll leave because it's getting closer to time," she told me.
I did everything that she told me to do and then we went up front to pay for everything. I saw her pull out a black card and hand it to the lady and she smiled. Alice then grabbed my warm hand into her cold one and we left the shop. We got to the school and when I saw it my eyes popped out of my head. It was a very big building and I felt really small then; I got my height from my mom who is also short. I may get as tall as Alice maybe a little taller but we'll have to see. I felt my nerves go in over drive and I was scared to death. Alice looked at me and smiled.
"Bella, it will be okay. I am here with you and also this is where I started. Lets go in before we are late," she told me.
She got me out of the car and we walked into the building and I saw another smiling lady.
"Hello, welcome to Princeton Ballet School. How may I help you two?" she asked us.
"Well, my little friend here wants to start ballet. I have everything that you will need and also a signed permission slip signed by her father for me to take care of everything that she needed," Alice told the lady.
She smiled at me and then started to type on the computer what Alice was telling her. She smiled at us again.
"Well you are ready for class now. Go down the hall and to your right and you will see a sign that will say hand in hand, Solley Theater, that is where you need to go," the lady told us.
We thanked her and we started to walk down the hall and we turned right and the door in front of us said hand in hand, Solley Theater; I looked at Alice and she smiled.
"Are you ready to start to learn Ballet?" she asked me.
I just nodded my head and she opened the door. I stood there for a moment looking at the others and I smiled. I can do this, I told myself.
Well this is the end of chapter one. So what did you all think of it? I hope you all like it. As of right now I got three and a half chapters wrote on it and doing more. Thanks again for being there for me. Love to all, JenCullen28.
